It had been a long hard week. Special Agent Spencer Reid had just spent the past seven days in rural Oregon tracking a serial killer with the rest of the Behavioral Analysis Unit team. The team had caught the killer and was now headed back to Quantico, Virginia and the FBI academy. Unlike some of the other departments in the FBI, the BAU was located out of Quantico, where other agents were trained. It was late at night and most of the rest of the team was asleep on the private jet the team used to usher them to the various locations of serial killers, rapists, arsonists, kidnappings, and other unspeakable things the team worked on. Spencer Reid, however, was wide awake.

He stared out the window of the jet. He pondered just how much his life had changed recently. He had been held hostage numerous times and just recently, he had been abducted and held in the middle of nowhere by a man suffering from dissociative identity disorder. The man, Tobias Hankel, had three distinct personalities: Tobias, his father, and the arc-angel Raphael. The father had been very much a biblical man, who distorted the Bible to suit his own purposes. Raphael was a murderer who had murdered five people. Tobias was a drug addict who had doped Reid up to help with the torture inflicted upon him, both mentally and physically.

It was after that instance that he had begun taking the drugs that Tobias had given him. It had been strange to go home after work some days and shoot up himself. He was a certified genius, after all, and had figured out how to do it without much thought involved. Usually, at night, after the team resigned to their respective rooms, he would shoot up and sleep, dreams filling his head of his youth.

But then, in New Orleans, he missed a plane. Jason Gideon had found out. Even though Gideon wasn't his supervisor, there was still a strong sense of respect Reid felt for the man. They talked, Reid agreed to never miss a plane again, and Reid started getting help for his habit. It was then that he realized he had a bigger problem.

Here he was an accomplished field agent in the FBI in the Behavioral Analysis Unit at only twenty-five years old. But instead of feeling proud of his accomplishments, he felt like his life was spinning out of control. For some reason, the drugs hadn't helped in that. They had actually opened the proverbial flood gates. He could almost see his life spinning out of control in front of his eyes.

Reid stared at his own reflection in the glass. It was so difficult to hide anything in his present company. Both Gideon and his supervisor, Aaron Hotchner, always seemed to be profiling the team members, and Reid was no exception. He was surprised that he had kept his drug habit a secret for so long. Now he wasn't sure if he was going to be able to keep his current secret hidden at all.
