I was standing outside the conference room, looking over at Eve's empty desk.

''What the-'' Garcia mumbled

''I can't...what's happening?'' Garcia spoke

I looked over and noticed she was having some trouble with her laptop. She took her hands off the keys and took a step back away from it.

''Reid!'' Garcia screamed

I ran into the conference room and the team had assembled around the screen we had placed in there. I slowly looked up as I noticed Eve was on the screen. Garcia was trying to track the footage. I was screaming at the screen for her to wake up.

She had a bag over her heard and was tied to a chair. I couldn't see anyone around her and it looked as if she was in some kind of warehouse. I glanced over at Jordan who looked equally worried.

''Eve come on'' JJ whispered

Garcia was shaking, become more anxious about Eve.

She started squirming and screaming until finally, a shadowy figured approached her. He whipped off the bag and Eve was finally able to see. Garcia gasped as she noticed the cuts on Eve's face and hands.

 ''She's alive'' Garcia stammered

''I cant, I can't track the feed'' Garcia added

We watched the screen as Eve tried to set herself free.

''Where am I?'' She shouted

She was looking around the room, calling out my name. I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself down. Hotch looked worried too, I scanned the background hoping I'd see a clue or something on the location.

''Reid!'' Eve screamed

The man approached her again, I could see her gun in his hand. He paraded it around, trying to scare us. He undid the first few buttons of her bloodstained shirt and pressed the gun against her chest.

''This is what happens when you take what is mine, Doctor'' The man said calmly

Eve was whimpering, trying to avoid the gun. We carried on watching as I got angrier. He lifted the gun and smacked Eve across the face with it. She spit blood on to the floor, it dripping from her bleeding lip.

Garcia couldn't look anymore, facing away from the feed.

He walked around the other side of the chair and hit her again from that side. Eve didn't react, trying to be strong. Her face was covered in blood. 

The man was wearing a mask, squaring up to the camera so he could speak,

''I win, Doctor Reid'' He spat

He walked back over to Reid who started shaking her head and begging him to stop as he pressed the gun against her head.

''I'll give you twelve hours to find me'' The man spoke

The feed quickly cut and I shouted at Garcia to try and get it back, she was already crying from seeing Eve in that state. I punched the wall, with Jordan trying to calm me down.

''He's going to kill her!'' I shouted

Hotch tried to calm me down, Prentiss was shaking; she had left the room shortly after the feed had started. I noticed her pacing around the office. JJ sat in silence, still blaming herself. Rossi walked over to me.

''Reid, is there anyone else you can think of?'' He asked me

''He said that Eve is his, he's very possessive, Reid'' Hotch added
