I don't own criminal minds

Enjoy

One few can see the world beyond time. Time is like a barrier in our world, it shields us from a world that so few can truly understand. It is a world that acts like a core. All knowledge and life comes from this plain of the unknown. So many wish to experience it, but the few that do wish they never did.

Spencer Reid lay in bed and stared at the ceiling. He can't understand why that after every vision he has, it prevents him from sleeping for such a long time. The visions, he noticed, we getting more realistic now.

Spencer has always had these visions and dreams ever since he was a child. In his mind, he can see the souls of people and sometimes glimpses of another world. He was not totally sure what this "power" was or how to control it. All he knew that for some reason the visions have increased tenfold.

AT THE BAU OFFICE

Morgan and Hotch were talking when they noticed Reid coming into the office looking groggy and swayed slightly from exhaustion. Hotch went over to him to help him steady himself.

"Reid are you ok?"

"I'm fine, I couldn't sleep last night." Suddenly Spencer's sight became blurry. The figures around him became black shapes and colors danced before his eyes. Then in only a second all was white and a hooded figure appeared before him.

"Take care of this gift Spencer; you must learn how to use it."

Spencer looked at the man, but his face was hidden, "I don't know how to control it, I don't even think anyone can teach me how."

The man handed Spencer a piece of paper, the paper had a name written on it. "Find this person Spencer."

"How?"

The man was slowly fading away, "The same way you found me."

Suddenly Spencer's world became black and the man was gone. But just before he slipped into the darkness he realized that he was just in the other world and this won't be the last time that he will see the hooded man.

Slowly Spencer's eyes opened, around him was his team looking worried. "He's walking up" said Prentiss.

Morgan and Rossi gently helped Spencer sit up. He realized that he was on the couch in Hotch's office; he team must have carried him here.

"What happened" asked Spencer.

"You passed out when you were walking to your desk. You've been out for about an hour."

It's been that long; it only felt like a minute at most.

Suddenly Spencer noticed something in his hand. He opened his hand to find a small piece of paper. The others looked curiously.

"I don't remember you holding that when you fell" said Rossi.

Spencer opened the folded paper to find a name written in script, 'Professor Deadmon'.

Spencer was shocked when he read the name, Deadmon was a teacher he knew from college. How would he know about his visions?

"Reid…are you sure you're ok. I can give you a day off" said Hotch.

He looked up at his boss, "Hotch I need to go to Boston for a few days, it's very important."

"Sure Reid, you can call us if you need anything."

Spencer rushed out of the office. "I wonder who that hooded man was."

As Spencer walked to his car, a small raven was perched a few cars away from him. It watched him as he got into his car and drove off. Once Spencer left, the raven began to follow him.
