Summary: The team gathers around the coffin of Emily Prentiss to say their goodbyes.

Chapter 1
The mood was somber, the day dreary with the overcast sky as they walked with her to where she would rest. The seven of them stood around, each mourning her in their own way. Each of the seven gathered around; had written her a goodbye letter to be read after the other mourners had left. It would be their own private way of coming together to tell their colleague, their friend goodbye.
Ashley Seaver was the first to step forward and read her letter.
Emily, I know that we didn't know each other very long but I feel like we were becoming friends. It was you who pushed to have me on the team and I will always be grateful for your quick acceptance of me. I will always be grateful to you for showing me that it was okay to stand up for something you believe in. And look at what that cost you for me to learn that lesson. My deepest regret is not realizing before it was too late. You are truly going to be missed… Love, Ashley.
She sat there in the back of the SUV; the windows blacked out. She watched from across the drive as her family laid her to rest. She watched as they stood around her empty casket, mourning the loss of their friend. She sat there and cried for her friends; cried for the pain she knew she was causing them. She cried and mourned her loss as well. They had lost one person but she… she mourned the loss of seven. Her heart was breaking and she had no one to turn to for comfort.
She watched as Ashley read from something in her hand; watched as she finished and put whatever it was in an envelope and laid it among the flowers that adorned the top of her casket.
A/N: These are mostly going to be short chapters. I wanted to give each member of the team their own so they won't be very long at all.
Please let me know if you want me to continue this or not. Thanks for reading and reviewing.
