The hallway led to a set of double drawers. "Please no sudden movements or loud noises, no flash photography, and whatever you do don't feed them," Cruz announced.

Emily groaned and playfully hit his shoulder. "The zoo joke is getting old."

"Wait, so you've met these agents?" Derek asked.

Emily nodded with a grin. "Of course, they come and hangout at my apartment all the time." She turned to Cruz. "By the way you still owe me for a new couch."

Cruz shook his head. "That was not my fault."

"You're the one who suggested we have the Halloween party at my apartment, so it's your fault it got puked on."

Erin sighed. "If you two stop I'll buy you a new couch."

Emily crossed her arms and smirked at Cruz. The team was taken back. They had never seen this side of their Section Chief or Emily for that matter. With that Cruz opened the door.

The team was introduced to one big room. The two back corners of the room lead down two hallways. The main room had white and grey walls with a horizontal darker grey stripe separating them. The back wall was taken up by two large windows. They were the kind you could see out but not in. The flooring was a soft grey carpet. To the left a section of the wall was covered in a colorful mural of a forest setting. Near this mural there were three sets of four desk. Towards the window there were three swing seats hanging from the ceiling; bean bags were carelessly thrown to one corner near two bookshelves. By the wall separating the right hallway from the main room was a kitchennet. To the BAU the room looked more like a playground than an office. The first thing many of them noticed, besides the unoffice like environment, was a girl sitting in the floor bent over a laptap. She had blonde wavy hair with multicolored sections on the bottom layer. From what the team could to tell she was wearing a beige sweater and skinny jeans. She didn't have on shoes reveling one pink sock and one green sock; a pair of boots sat abandoned by a near by desk. There were several files and papers scattered around her. In a neat pile to her left sat pink and red starburst and a chocolate milkshake. To her right was a pile of starburst wrappers and highlighters. She had ear buds in and didn't bother to acknowledge the team. Before any of them could speak another body jumped down from one of the swings. She instantly went running towards the BAU's raven haired agent. "Emmy!"

The team noticed she shared an uncanny resemblance to their teammate. The difference lied in her golden brown hair and her impossibly thinner frame. It was a good thing though as she latched on to Emily like a kola bear. Emily grunted at the force, but managed to support her. Penelope was quick to notice the girl's attire was completely different from Emily's. The girl was wearing a white denim vest over a grey tank top. She was also wearing a lime green tulle skirt over grey leggings. Like the first girl she was missing shoes. Penelope couldn't figure out how she wasn't freezing in the chilly January weather.

"I don't think Cruz was joking about the zoo," Derek whispered to Penelope.

Penelope swatted his shoulder turning his attention to the young girl holding on to Emily. Emily was trying to get the girl to let go of her. "First off Libby you're acting like I didn't just see you two hours ago, and second off you're getting too big for this."

The girl called Libby dropped her feet to the ground with a huff. "I'm sorry Emmy I'm just really excited. We get to work with your team. It's like the best thing ever."

Emily cleared her throat; her eyes darted around her. Libby's eyes widened in shock as she finally took in the other team members; she squealed in delight.
