I was sitting across from her and saw she was having trouble keeping eye contact.
"Would you like water?" I asked
"Uh no thank you." She quietly told
"Can you tell us when she started acting different?"
"She started acting differently about a month ago."
"Do you know what caused it?" Spencer asked
"A bunch of us were having a sleep over to celebrate us completing exams for the semester. And she suggested we play with a ouija board. I said no because you should never talk to demons but they all did and after that she began acting weird along with them all."
"You know all the victims?" Spencer asked
"Yeah. Does that make me a suspect?" She asked
"You were out of town for the first three deaths. But it's hard to say at the moment." Spencer told
"How many girls were there?" I asked
"5 girls, 6 if you include me and 3 guys. They were our best friends so we had them join the sleep over."
"Did they all start acting weird at the same time?" I asked
"Most of them did. It was like they all were possessed by the same thing."
'This is so familiar.... why?'
"What school did you all go to?"
"The Catholic University of America."
"Thank you. I have what I need for now." I told before leaving.
Spencer rushed after me and grabbed my arm.
"River what's wrong?"
"That girl wasn't here for the first three, because she was still at school before coming home with her friends."
"How do you know that?"
"Because that's a school from Washington and I know some people from there." I told as I continued to make my way to where the others were.
"Discovered anything Baby?"
"They are here on break."
"What makes you think that?" J asked
"Because they all go to a school in Washington DC. And she said they started all acting like that a month ago which means they had to have started back when they were there." I told
"So whoever is still alive in the friend group is the suspects." Spencer added
"How did you know they were all going to school in Washington?" Emily asked.
"And that the school was in Washington?" Rossi added
"She has a cousin there who's Catholic."
"He's Roman Catholic and I just realised I have to call him for information."
"Your not close with your cousin?" Hotch asked
"Not since he pissed me off. I'll be back." I told as I grabbed my phone and left the room.
I walked outside and dialled the number as I sat down on a near by bench.

"B...."
"Yeah dude its me."
"River?!"
"The one and only."
"Why are you calling me?"
"I need info."
"Ok 1) I thought you hated my guts and 2) I'm working a case right now."
"I do hate your guts but five kids from a catholic school in your town are committing suicide and their all friends. So I need to know if anyone else from The Catholic University of America is committing suicide."
"Are you sure you should be working that case then?"
"I'm fine."
"You think it's happening again don't you."
"It's awfully familiar to something I know. But I need to know and if I get my team to do it then, they may find out about my past."
"Look Riv, no one else from that school has died. I would know, especially if any of them became bones on the property."
"You work with bones now?"
"Somewhat."
"Interesting. What would make someone think people were becoming possessed?"
"I don't know. I would have to ask people that I know."
"Ok, send it to me if you've got anything."
"Hey. You know you can call me whenever right?"
"I know. I gotta go Sniper."
"Good luck brains."

I hung the phone and let out a sigh.
'This is not helping me figure this out.'
