Penelope Garcia's POV

I'm looking for what Hotch asked me to find. I'm looking in Joy's file because we don't have any track to follow for now. However, there's something strange in her file; a part has been censured. I wonder why. I'm looking for who censured the part and it seems to be the FBI. I'm trying to find the censured part in the FBI's database. While I'm hacking the FBI's database, I receive an email with a file in it. What I see is horrible...

Aaron Hotchner's POV

Even if Dave is off the case, I need someone's help. Emily, Derek, Dave and I are in my office, trying to find a good track to follow. Someone knocks at the door.

"Come in."

Penelope enters. She's pale and seems terrified.

"I received a file from an unknown person, and I think it'll help us to move forward in the case."

"I'm calling the rest of the team," I declare.

"But Jaeden and Hope are sick!" Emily exclaims.

"I'll take care of them," Penelope says.

Spencer Reid's POV

We're preparing the kids' stuff because we're leaving early tomorrow's morning.

My phone rings. It's Hotch.

"Hello."

"I need you and JJ to come over. Even though the kids are sick; Penelope will take care of them."

I have a lump in my throat.

"Is everything okay?"

"Uh... Yeah. We're coming."

I hang up and I turn to JJ.

"What's wrong?"

'We need to go to the BAU, even you. Penelope's gonna take care of the kids."

She sighs and packs the last bag.

"Okay. I'm ready."

I gently wake up the kids. They wake up and we leave the hospital, heading to the BAU.

Emily Prentiss' POV

We're in the Conference Room, waiting for JJ and Spencer. They arrive with the kids. Jaeden and Hope have a tuque on their head. JJ seems uncomfortable. Seeing Penelope, the kids run to her.

"Pe-ope!" They both exclaim.

She leans and catches them both. She takes off their tuque. There's an uncomfortable silence in the room. I look at JJ; her eyes are filling up with tears. I get up and I hug her.

"I'm so sorry," she whispers.

"Don't be," I respond.

"What kind of cancer is it?" Derek asks.

"Leukemia," Spencer answers in one breath.

I rub JJ's back while holding her against me.

"It's gonna be okay."

JJ walks away and wipes her tears.

"So... Why did you call us?" She asks.

"I received a video. Joy is in it."
