Hey all! It's me!

So I submitted two challenge prompts for the July Challenge (Which is what this bad boy is for: Crossovers)! This is my first one, which was JJ and River Song from Doctor Who. In case you're wondering, this one will be multiple chapters, about 5-6 long. I have a majority of it written, but the chapters will be very short.

So, to business: I don't own Criminal Minds or Doctor Who. They belong to their proper owners in their respected countries.

Enjoy!

Then cherish pity, lest you drive an angel from your door. ~ William Blake

Looking back on the whole affair, Jennifer Jareau would never have guessed as to what lengths she would have gone through in order to save her team. But it was that cold, rainy afternoon in DC that changed everything.

She'd had the day off, they all had had that Friday off. Emily had left for London early that morning and they'd had a going-away party at their favorite bar only last night. Now, JJ was taking advantage of her free day to look at gardening supplies. With Henry following behind her, she traversed the aisles of brightly colored plants, pots, gardening tools and yard furniture. She had just found an off-white wicker set with blue cushions she really liked when she saw the statue.

At first, that was all it seemed to be, a statue of an angel crying into its hands. The stony wings rested in a relaxed, open position. She was standing with both feet together and was slightly bent so her head could rest in her hands. JJ noted that she was perfectly carved and the detail was amazing.

Another angel statue also caught JJ's eye. Equally well-carved, the figure was covering her face with her elbow while her other hand reached out as if to ward someone off. As she stared, the sun peeked out from a cloud for a moment, blinding JJ as she stood there. When she could see again, she could have sworn that the second statue had moved slightly. It now seemed to be peeking up from its elbow to stare at her.

For some reason, this second statue sent shivers down JJ's spine. She grabbed Henry's hand, ignoring his protests as she dragged him toward the checkout with her purchases.

"We've got to go, Henry."

"But Mommy!" Henry whined as she walked, dragging his heels into the concrete.

"Come on, Henry! Let's go!"

She didn't see that the first angel had raised its head to observe her hasty departure.

Minutes later, JJ was accelerating down the highway, Henry situated in his car seat and watching a child's television program. JJ programed a familiar number into her phone and listened to the tone for one ring before it was picked up.

"Hey JJ, is it a case?"

"No Garcia," JJ replied, looking at Henry through the mirror. "I was wondering if maybe you'd want to take Henry for tonight."

"Oh!" Garcia squeaked. "Do you and Will require some… alone time?" her voice had taken on an almost husky tone, making it sound more masculine.

JJ laughed "As a matter of fact, we do!"

"Perfect! I've wanted to get together with the munchkin for a while now, since you two got back from your honeymoon! I'll see if I can rope in the Boy Wonder and we'll make it a family night! Movies, dinner, shopping, magic…."

"Only if Spence isn't busy, Garcia," JJ reminded firmly. "He's doing that consult for UNIT, remember? Plus he's finishing his Philosophy degree. It's going to be a Doctorate now."

Garcia sighed. "Fine, but he doesn't know what he's missing!" With that, she hung up.

JJ turned down the audio from Henry's program and turned to him at a stoplight. "Hey Henry, how would you like to visit you Aunt Penny tonight?"

"Yeah!" Henry shrieked, and JJ laughed as he started to babble about seeing his aunt as JJ's phone rang again. Without glancing at the caller ID, JJ answered. "Garcia, I told you that he's busy!"

"Who's gonna be busy t'night, Chere?" Will's voice softly intoned.

"Will! Sorry! I thought you were Garcia; I asked her to look after Henry tonight while we were together and she wanted to drag Spencer into it."

"Well, you're right 'bout him bein' busy, but he's not th' only one t'night."

JJ paused, placing her car in park. She was now sitting outside Garcia's apartment and Henry was whining and pulling at his car seat straps. "Will, what's going on?"

"Monroe called in sick an' the Chief wants me to take his shift for t'night," Will sounded as though he'd rather not be the one taking over the ill officer's shift. "I thought I'd tell you b'fore I clock in for it."

"Can't he get someone else?" JJ asked.

"I tried t' tell him that I wanted some time with m' wife, but he said he was swamped. All these strange disappearances that have been happenin' are starting to get out of hand."

JJ sighed, turning her car so she caught the exit to Garcia's apartment complex. Of course, the disappearances that had been happening in the District and Virginia. There was another BAU team working that case, but they were going nowhere fast. Strauss had been hinting to Hotch that she wanted them to take over the case. It was only a matter of time before Garcia got the files.

"That's fine, Will," JJ replied. "I'm already at Garcia's, Henry can stay here tonight anyway."

"He mus' be real excited t' see her," Will replied. "Tell them I said hey."

"I will," JJ hung up and sighed. She looked up at the building before turning to Henry. "Let's go say hi to Aunt Penny!"
