When BAU profiler Aaron learns about a killer with the goal to kill his team, everything goes crazy. The unsub follows a strict event line, and plans each one of his kills, dreaming about the day he'll finish off the team. Not only that, but JJ's hiding a secret, and not every team member is truly coming clean about the unsub, or about their lives. Can the team stop the killer, or will the killer stop the team?

Hotch this is a bad idea" Reid said following him through the prison. "It's the only option we have left, we both know this" the stern man spoke as they approached the door. "We can't just let her out and join the team- it took the FBI 2 years to track her down, what if she escapes? She's a murderer Hotch" Morgan spoke from the other side of him. "We always say that unsubs make the best profilers, she is proof of that" Hotch said as the doors slowly opened. "Hello again boys" Athena smiled from the other side of the metal desk she was chained to. Reid frowned as she winked at him. "Glad the black eye has healed; I was afraid I damaged your pretty little face forever" she said referring to the time they tried to catch her, and she beat Reid up pretty badly before escaping. Athena was the most dangerous type of unsub, she was smart and had all the skills to be a expect level profiler and she absolutely used that against the team when they were asked to track her down. A criminal minds fanfic, not based on any of the shows timeline but a mismatch of them to create its own. A psychopathic unsub is recruited to join the team after they finally caught her after 3 years of her taunting them, will she join the team? Or will the history, secrets she knows and flirtatious tension between her and her new teammates be to much for everyone to handle? Since this is a CM fanfic there will be dark themes, trigger warnings will be at the start of each chapter- enjoy :)Complete

If we were to lose you /Criminal Minds\
The BAU team gets called to Elroy, Wisconsin to investigate murders of five young people, three women and two men in their twenties, having nothing but their appereance in common. The thing disturbing to most of the team is the fact all the victims look similiar to someone they know. Hotch orders Reid to stay at the station because he's worried about te doctor. The unsub is one of the most difficult ones the team had to deal with so far, so after the team, excluding the young doctor, and most of the officers leave to arrest possible suspect, they find it was a fake call, they come back to devasted place, the officers that stayed behind all lying on the floor, not remembering anything that has happened since their colegues left, and of course everyone's worst fear came true, the unsub got Reid. Later two other bodies are found, one female and one male, neither of them being able to get identified, until the unsub is caught, when getting asked about the FBI agent's wherabouts only replies with "Thought you would find him by now" while having satisfied smirk on his face. No one can tell wheter the unsub is bluffing or not, and as much as the team wishes he was, while discovering the unsub's hideout they find some of his victims alive, their worst fear being confirmed. They had lost the doctor... or did they? ____________ -this is my first fanfic, also English is my 2nd language, so excuse any mistakes and/or errors -I do not own the show 'Criminal Minds' nor the characters -also obvious trigger warnings for death, violence, swearing, maybe 'boy x boy' and 'girl x girl' relationships (even between the main characters and bcs I'm a multishipper idk which ones I want to include yet) probably alcohol or drugs as well (if anything else comes to mind, will add before mentioned in fanfiction)Complete
Psychosis
(A Criminal Minds Fanfic {Dr. Spencer Reid}) Isabel Ashe: writer, supposed prodigy, all-around mystery. No one knows anything about Isabel, but that's because she wants to keep it that way. The FBI, however, doesn't want to keep it that way. Throughout Isabel's works, it's been shown she is an expert on forensic psychology: an expert of knowing how to get into a criminal's mind to catch them. For this reason, it is thought that she would be an excellent member of the Behavioral Analysis Unit, or the BAU. However, they have to find her first. They thought of sending the BAU to find her. After all, who better to find a potential profiler than a team of profilers? The members of the BAU didn't expect to have to find the ghost of a girl that is Isabel Ashe. However, when all other resources have been exhausted, it seems they are the only chance the FBI has left of finding her. Thanks to the technical genius of Penelope Garcia, they quickly find out who Isabel Ashe really is, and finding her becomes less of a challenge. They prepared for how they were going to tell Isabel Ashe that she was wanted by the FBI for reasons they didn't know. What they didn't prepare for was finding the girl riddled with psychosis, among other things. Yet, they decide to take a chance with her when they see she has amazing control over her psychosis. After all, who better to catch a psycho than a psycho?Complete![Eleven Years to the Day [A.H. × Reader]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/396212190-256-k86451.jpg)
