*2 weeks after Henry*

Emily's POV

Ive been back to work for about a week now. Things seemed to be falling back into place as i sit down at my desk and opening a file. JJ's replacement, Jordan Todd, was walking through the bull pen with a determined look on her face headed straight for Hotch's office, 'this cant be good' i thought to myself. Her and Hotch come out of his office and i lock eyes with Jordan. She signs me to gather everyone and meet at the round table. I put my file down and reach across my desk to knock on Reids, "we got a case" i say and he grabs his bag and heads up the stairs. I then walk over to Dereks desk and say the same thing, he says he will go get Garcia so i head up to the round table. I take my seat and soon after Morgan, Garcia and Rossi follow. "Alright, we have four dead women in Kansas city, all brunette all between the ages of 18-20" Jordan says hitting a button on the remote and making terrible images pop up on the screen. "It looks like he poisons them with arsenic then dumps them in the river" Spencer says pointing out the obvious yet gruesome detail. "Yea and he is speeding up, wheels up in 30" Hotch says his famous line and we all step out of the room. I make a quick call to JJ to tell her where we are going and that ill be home soon and with that im off to the plane.

JJ's POV

Emily calls me and tells me that the team is off to Kansas city with 4 dead girls. I cant help but want to go back to the BAU and help but i am more than happy to be here with Henry instead. its around 2 o'clock when i get a text from Emily that says they have landed safely, when she said she was going back i made her promise that she would contact me a as much as possible about her and the team because im not there to know they are safe. Garcia luckily has been helping me a lot by keeping track of them. Henry's finally down for his nap after a 20 minute cry so i decide to shower. I let the hot water run down on me and wash away all the stress and thoughts trapped in my mind, that was until i got out of the shower. I checked my phone after a 30 minute shower, i had 7 missed calls and 20 texts from Garcia. I call her back immediately. She picks up on the first ring and i can here the tears in her voice, "oh JJ-" she gets cut off by a wave of heavy breathing "Garcia whats wrong" i ask now very worried "its- the team.." she paused for a moment but before i could say anything she started speaking again. "They were on there way to arrest the unsub but he set a trap and they crashed their cars and then a truck hit them and one-" she cut off there leaving me utterly shocked at what she had just said. "One what Garcia, are they ok, wheres Emily" i say fast, tears threatening to roll down my cheeks. "JJ you need to come to the BAU right now, ill tell you just not over the phone" i quickly hang up after that a get dressed in the first thing i see. Henry is still sleeping so i opt for calling Beth. She says she'll be there in 10 with Jack so i sit on the couch, my mind cant help to go to the worst possible out come. I start to panic and soon i am sitting down trapped in my thoughts. I hear a knock on the door and i answer, Beth is standing there Jack in one arm and an overnight bag in the other but thats when i remembered, "wait isn't Hotch in trouble, im sorry for calling i-" she grabbed my arm with an open hand "JJ, Aaron is fine they told me he was traveling behind everyone else and didnt get hit, go". with that i said thank you and sprinted to my car. I sped to the BAU and ran into Penelope's office. She was a mess, mascara down her cheeks and red puffy eyes, "tell me what happened" i say through gritted teeth trying not to cry. "Someone is dead and they wont tell me who and... Emilys missing". The words hit me like a truck going 100 mph. "Missing" i mutter out, i feel a hot tear on my cheek. Garcia comes up a hugs me like it will be the last time, we stand there squeezing each other for a moment, "i need to be there" i say and she just nods, "the jets on its way right now" she says and i break.

Emily's POV *2 hours earlier*

We arrived at the local P.D fairly quickly after landing. Hotch sent Dave and i to the M.E. to see if anything played a roll in the death. Derek and Spencer went to the last crime scene and Hotch and Jordan stayed at the station to deal with the press and look through evidence to help creat a proliminary profile. We all met back at the station about 30 minutes later with new details. "Turns out the girls go through hours of torture before they get poisoned and dumped" Rossi says meeting Hotch in the tiny room we were givin. "Morgan and i discovered that the bodies were weighed down but still floated to the top, thats why they were found fairly quickly" Spencer added. After 20 minutes more of creating a geographical profile and talking to Garcia, we had our guy. Well actually we had our girl. Spencer ended up putting the pieces together that because our unsub killed so cleanly and didnt bother to weigh the body down well, not because she wanted to but becasue she wouldnt have been able to lift her victims, that she was a 27 year old Georgetown University grad who instead of joining law enforcment, like she intended, killed women. "Her name is Sarah Craw", i stopped for a second, 'ive heard that name before' i thought to myself. I continued to rack my brain for the name but i just coudnt remember right now. "Garcia do you have the address" Hotch said loudly and clearly "oh sir, you know i do, 54672 Landen Dr.". We hung up with Garica and headed to the cars. "You guys go ahead, ill wait for back up and drive in with them" Hotch says as we all put our vests on and hop in the cars. The first car was Jordan, Derek and i and the second was Rossi, Spence and the police cheif. We pull out of the station with our lights on and we speed our way there. She still had a girl with her so we couldnt waist any time. About 3/4 of the way there we flick our lights off, we dont want to draw attention to ourselves. We turn down a dirt road and continue on our way. All of the sudden we feel a bump under us and we start to spin out. We stop right before a tree and then the second SUV comes flying right at us. Almost everyone is ok with only Derek talking about his wrist hurting. We were all about to step out of the car when i see two head lights headed right for us "DEREK" i scream out but its too late. I wake up to the sound of a woman screaming, i try to do the same but my mouth is gagged. I look around to see that i was in a small room with only one small window in the corner. my team is no where to be found. I try to move but i am strapped down to a bed, one second later someone comes in. "Hey Emily, didnt mean to startle you but i do believe you have something i want" i heard a womans voice say. I assume its Sarah then my thoughts become a reality when she walks closer letting me see her face. I try to speak again but the cloth in my mouth prevents me from doing so. She laughs "oh sorry i forgot about that" she gets closer to me and i try to head butt her but im to restricted, "wow calm down, its only on you because i had to keep you quite". I let her take it off but then the realiztion hits me like a bus."You're Sarah" i say surprised as all hell, "yea i thought you already knew that supervisery special agent Emily Prentiss" she says tauntingly "i thought youd be better at your job" she laughed. I really didnt want to feed into her narcissism any more than i just did but i had to know. "Youre here for Jennifer arnt you" i spit starting to get protective. She pulls a knife out of her back pocket when i say Jeniffer's name and spins in around in her hands "so you are good at your job?" she questioned. I just gave her a glare, "if you want Jennifer why am i here" i say acting like i dont care about her. "Oh please, dont kid yourself, you would rather die a hundred times then have her be here right now" she said rolling her eyes and getting serious. "What are you talking about" i say tring to hide my fear and true emotions about JJ. "Ive seen you two, back in Quantico, you live together for god sakes" she says bringing the knife closer to me with every word. "How do you know that" i say trying to pull away. "Well lets start from the begining shall we" she says then continues "Jennifer and i went to collage together, we were best friends, more than best friends, lovers, until one day she got a call. It was 3 weeks before graduation, she was told by your very own unit chief Aaron Hotchner that they looked at her test and field scores and they wanted her in the BAU. She was sooo excited to leave me and everything she knew behind to go hunt murderers. I told her she was making a mistake and that she should stick our plan. We were going to be officers together until she got that stupid call. She didnt care, she left as soon as she could, without me. Jennifer only cares about herself" i cut her off, which i probably shoudnt have but i didnt care, "no she does not, she is the most selfless person i know" i beamed. "Shut Up!" she screamed then continued with her story. "I finished school then moved to Virginia to try and get her back. When i found her she said that what we had was a "fling" and that it was nothing, she had a life here now. So i decided to just watch her until she needed me, then i would swoop in, until you came. I could tell you loved Jennifer from the first time i saw you guys get coffee together, too bad she had a boyfriend at the time huh? Well after a few more months of watching you two i came here and knew that if i started killing, you would come. Sadly i seemed to have missed Jennifers arrival, so i have you instead. By the way where is she". She had finally stopped talking but i deflected the question. "I said WHERE IS SHE" she screamed and slashed the knife against my skin. It wasnt a deep cut but i was big, right across my thigh. "I dont know" i said wincing at the pain in my leg. "Wrong answer" she sang and slashed my other leg "try again". I grit my teeth preparing for another blow "i dont know" i said slowly. "Yes you do tell me!" she screams, this time she cuts my right arm. "damn it" i scream out, this one hurt, "I dont know she left!" i say hard. Sarah lifts the knife from my left arm and motions me to continue. I start but she cuts me off "tell the truth or you know what happens", i nod and continue on. "7 months ago i walked into the office and Jennifer wasnt there (i dared not to say her nickname or let it slip up) our unit chief, Aaron Hotchner, said she had quit and moved back to New Orleans with her boyfriend". I had lied but Sarah didnt know because the last thing in her story was that JJ was still with Will. "Well then, i guess i have been in the worng place all along" she said smirking evily. She took her knife and put it to my chin, making me lift it to see her, "if i cant have Jennifer, ill take you" she whispered in my ear causing me to pull away. She grabbd my face pulling it back towards her "you are very beautiful Emily, Jen always did have amazing taste" she let go of my face and slashed my left arm with the knife. I felt tears well up in my eyes but i wont dare cry, not here and not now. "Ill be back later, dont go anywhere" she laughed and walked out. I layed back and relaxed. Trying not to think of the pain my mind switched to JJ. 'Please find me' was the last thing i thought before the pain took over and all i saw was black.
