The Lady and the Genius.

Things got worse.

~(4 hours)~

(Spencer p.o.v)

"What is she doing?" I asked as I watch the screen carefully.
"Talking. But from the looks of things she is getting the sub to become friends with her." Jj told
"I just figured out how to get the microphone to work as well." Penelope told as she clicked a few more keys before we got sound.

"You know when I was 6 my dad locked me in a cage to teach me how to escape if I was ever taken and put in a cage."
"My dad would lock me in the closet whenever he was upset with me."
"Some fathers can be terrible. But your friend, he trust you since you can listen to orders right."
"Of course. I would hate to disappoint Richie.... I shouldn't have said that."
"No no it's fine. My lips are sealed. But he is like a brother to you isn't he."
"He was there for me when no one else was. He was my only friend."
"Well hey. I'll be your friend."
"Really?"
"Well hell yeah. I don't like all my other friends right now anyway."
"Did they hurt you?"
"Oh you have no idea. Three of them never talk to me because they are more focus on their music. One of them never smiles and always tells me to shut up. Another one always covers my mouth when I'm talking because apparently I talk too much. There also this guy and he calls me stuff like pretty girl and baby like just objectifying me like I'm nothing. And don't get me started on the dude who calls me names in Italian or the chick that try's to act like my mum basically. Oh and the other genius in the group, he will not let me have any fun. He is soooo over protective and treats me like a child. They all do. Another one of my friends thinks he is smarter then me cause he can learn things about bones and what they did, which is stupid especially since he did an idiotic thing last year. And do not get me started on my family."
"What about them?"
"The eldest one tried to become my father basically and I didn't need him to be my father I needed him to be my cousin... the very least a brother figure. The second oldest, he is protective of me but he can't see the problems he has and needs to face. My third cousin who's the same age as my second I worry about him. He basically grew up as child soldier and.... he stopped seeing me cause his old man was still upset about my job choice. And my baby cousin.... he was basically disowned by their dad for going to uni.... and my brother...... my brother isn't around now. Hasn't been since he was 15. And I forgot about the girl who calls me kitten. She is always trying to get into my personal life and I hate it."
"Right. They try to figure out what's made us do stuff like this. Like it wasn't obvious that this would have been the outcome before it got to this point."
"If it were me. I would have them believe for every request they give, they get another hostage. Makes them think they have control, when really you do. Since if you guys keep at least one hostage then they won't shoot you in fear of killing the hostage. Also good to start with the oldest people first and make your way closer to the youngest."
"I don't know what he wants requested."
"We'll go ask him and start making demands. Because they won't dare move when you can just kill us all."
"Yeah your right River. Your a good friend."
"Always happy to help.....?"
"Stan."
"Happy to help Stan."

Penelope quickly called Hotch and as soon as he answered I began to speak.
"Hotch. We have the plan from River."
"What's the plan?"
"We got to meet all their demands so we can get more of the hostages out of there." Jj told
"Thats why she wouldn't leave."
"She had a chance to escape?" Penelope asked
"She also had a chance to move out of the way for us to shoot the dominant one of the pair. She didn't and now we know why. She's trying to help us from the inside." Rossi told.
'River what is your end game?'

(River p.o.v)

Close to 5 hours maybe 6 and I am so very very bored.
'Playing that unsub is getting tiring.'
I heard talking from the unsubs making me look forward.
'There's no way for them to learn about me being in the fbi? Is there?'
They came walking over and the dom pointed the gun towards my head.
"Stand." He told
I instantly stood up and knew my nervous act was going to come into play soon. Especially since he was holding a gun to my head.
"Who are you?"
"River Victoria Charlotte Lane Finley. I own a bookstore, have an IQ of 189. I'm a Scorpio, I enjoy sunsets, long walks on the beach and frisky men... maybe a lady here or there would have to depend on the person. And I know what people gotta do in hostage situations."
"How?"
"My dad used to be a cop and two of cousins, one was in the army and the other was marines. I've just kinda grown up knowing. Also was a hostage for 5 hours with my father pointing a gun to my head while the dude held one to the side of my head as he held me."
"Like this?" He asked as he did it.
"Oh yes, very much like this. Brings me back to being eight."
"Oh so you got attitude now?"
"Not really attitude more nervousness then anything. How about I write you guys a check?"
"You'll write us a check?"
"Yep. I have money and you want money it's a wining situation for you if you think about it."
"Go on then. Make an offer."
"70,ooo?"
"There's no way you have that much."
"Would you believe my parents just had really good paying jobs?" I asked only for him to hit me with his gun.
'That's gonna leave a mark for awhile.'
"You think your being funny?"
"I think I'm being hilarious.... sorry that was something one of my cousins said in a serious situation. I don't mean to try and act funny."
"How do you have so much money?"
"I'm not kidding about inheritance. My parents were loaded and I am the only one around to get the money."
He grabbed my hair and pulled so I had no choice but to look up towards him.
"I like you. Your coming with me."
"Not like I gotta choice right." I told as he used my hair to pull me where he wanted me to go.
I quickly signed sorry before love you to the camera before I was out of frame. Once we were in the vault he threw me to the ground.
'Gonna love this.'
"So who are you really?"
"I wasn't kidding about who I was. Just left some information out about myself."
"Like what? You like it rough?"
"Actually no. It's that comparing you to the man who killed my mother..... you're nothing."
"What did you say to me?"
"You. Are. Nothing. This whole thing, amazing but not what you should have done."
"And what should I have done?"
"Find out of the people in the bank have serious connections."
"What are your connections then?"
"I know killers, my cousin is a fed, my other cousin a marine, and my other two were raised like children soldiers. And all of them are boys so messing with their only female cousin will surely mean your dead."
"You have got a real mouth on ya." He told as I began to tap my hand.
'I don't need one right now.'
"That's cause your pathetic really. I mean, bring the person who knows that the feds have been watching since before the children got out is quite smart. Makes them think your gonna kill me and then all those people."
"Might as well now."
"See here's the thing mate." I told before leaving close to his ear. "They are gonna storm in here in about 5 minutes I'd say."
I pulled away from him and gave him a coy smile as he held an annoyed shocked look.
"How would you know?"
"Your the dom of the pair and my buddies out there, know I will be able to distract you while they storm in."
He didn't say anything to me but I knew he was finally understanding that he wasn't going to get out of here a free man, when I heard a deafening bang and then felt pain.

We watched as he dragged River into the back but not after she signed something to us.
"What did she say?!" Jj asked
"The first one I don't know but the second is I love you." Penelope told
"How did you know?"
"Q, one of her hipsters is deaf and they have been teaching me a little sign every now and then. And River taught me I love you, and then told me how her and Sniper always sign it to one another even when she hates him."
"I'm calling Hotch." Jj told as she quickly began to call him.

"What's happening in there?"
"River was just taken to the back." I told
"Hotch we gotta go in while the dominant one is being distracted by River." Rossi told
"We could risk people getting shot."
"We could risk losing River if we don't." Jj told
Before anyone could say anything we all heard a hun shot making us freeze.
'No!'
"Hotch please! She might be able to be saved!" Penelope cried as tears began to fall down her face.
Jj grabbed her hand before grabbing mine and we all tried to have the benefit of the doubt that she was still alive. There was silence on their end for what felt like hours when he finally spoke.

"We are going in."
