"Don't do it Liz. You can't leave us all like that. Start getting more rest. I promise you we'll find this guy. We've got a long day ahead of us all. Do you even eat in the morning?" He finishes and I laugh. "Who's telling?" I say and we both stand up and walk to the conferences room. I felt a bit better, getting things off my chest. As the investigation started, I felt better, I mean knowing that I knew we were close. We shared ideas. By the end of the conference. We needed to tell the press and everyone. Since me and J.J were the only educated of journalism, J.J taking the one year course, me taking the extended four year course since I knew the BAU training would take a long time as well. So, I had done that. When we get the police stations, reporters were swarming. Mothers and fathers, even children were there as well. When we step out, I scan the cround, not wanting to trip over anything. My vision stumbles over a little girl. I gasp. She was with a man. She was being held like a baby. Our eyes met. "Mommy! Help!" She shrieks. I lunge toward the man. "FBI! Put her down!" I say. J.J. was surprised by my sudden yell. The man drops Raina. I take out my gun and yell out into the croud. "Back up! He's got a weapon!" I say as loudly as possible, which wasn't hard at that point. J.J had taken out a gun, but I didn't have cuffs. Of course I didn't anyhow. I see him take out something. He pushes the small oval into my chest. I couldn't even talk. I just felt burning. I remember just falling backward. I saw flashes. Cameras. I take my gun out. My cut burns even more. He picks up Raina. Tears fall from my eyes quickly. "No!" I scream out and grab my gun. I hear sirens. Hotchner? Or an ambulance? I pull the trigger twice. I hear an extra trigger. I remember screaming out in pain once, but all I saw now was white.
I wake up to Aiden's face, surrounded by white. "Liz, stay with me." He says. I cough once. I couldn't even move my arm to cover my mouth. "Aiden... I'm sorry." I croak when I see red on his face. He was dressed in his coat. Was he operating on me? I heard light sirens. Ambulance, I was in an ambulance. I feel pain all over. I remember something. "Where's Raina? Aiden, Aiden..." I say panicking. "Calm down. She's fine. Liz stay with me!" He says. I don't see anything for a while. By the time I woke up, I didn't feel better. Worse. "Why am I always the one to get hurt?" I ask out loud. "She's awake!" I hear a man say. Aiden. "I feel stupid." I say trying to sit up. My chest hurt. The wound. "What a coincadence? It's Aiden." I say and he kisses my forehead.
