When Emily Prentiss returns to DC after Ian Doyle dies, something seems to be missing from her life. DC had always felt whole, but now there is a hole missing. Not far away is a girl with a not so perfect life. Nellie, a girl whose luck and timing have seemingly always placed her in harm's way or giving her the short straw of the stick, is at a loss. When the BAU team picks up a new case in DC, Emily and Nellie find their paths crossing. Chances, trust, and a whole lot of unforeseen events seem to bring them back together. What will happen as the case progresses, finishes, and life pushes to move on? ----------------------- This story takes place around Season 7 of Criminal minds. Some characters will be brought in early. Emily Prentiss & Kid

Alyvia is a girl who has been without a father since she was born, a mother since she was three, and without a caregiver since her grandmother died. Leaving her stranded as a ward of the US embassy and an international school in Singapore. With her trauma-filled past & being stuck in Singapore, she begins to give up hope. But when she ends up in the middle of Serial Killer's Spree, she meets Emily who is more like her than she might think. ~~~~ Emily Prentiss x Daughter (OC)

"Look, Mr. Hotchner, Agent Hotchner, Hotch, my brother is dead, we've dealt with it already, I have a life, people I need to take care of, the last thing I need to do is throw my family into any unknown water anytime soon bringing this back up," I say, increasing my speed. A hand grips my arm, the same way my mom did Friday morning, causing me to wince and stop my jogging. Hotchner lets go but stares at me, then my arm, noticing the fingerprints left by my mother. Shouldn't have worn a sports bra. "What happened to your arm?" he asks, pointing to the bruise. I look at it then at him, "I work at a club Agent Hotchner, people aren't very nice when a pretty lady says no," The lie falls out so easily it almost makes me laugh. "Right well, that's another thing I want to talk you about, Maddison Crawford?" he asks, raising an eyebrow. I let out a small chuckle, "Took you that long to find out, I mean, my southern accent ain't that good," Hotchner rolls his eyes, waving for me to follow him. "Hotch, I have to get home, I came out for a run, not to talk about my dead brother," He pauses, turning to me, "Tatum, we need to talk, it's serious," I shake my head, "Look Agent Hotchner, I don't care, and that's not just teenage arrogance its facts okay, so your a profiler take a hint, I didn't not open my door because I wasn't able to," #1 FBI
