Tied
Slowly regaining consciousness, Jennifer Jareau could feel the ropes rubbing her wrists where they were tied behind the metal chair she was sitting on. Tape stuck to her legs, where they were affixed to the legs of the chair. Groaning she opened her eyes to look around at the place where she was being held. The walls looked like they were pure concrete with no windows or lights that she could see. The musty dirt raised air hung in front of her making it hard for her to see, but when she stopped to listen she could hear different ragged breaths being drawn all around her.
Looking to her left all she saw was a blank wall, but looking to her right she could see someone tied the same way she was about four feet from her. Straining her eyes and looking further to her right she could make out other figures tied to chairs in a line beyond the woman next to her. They all seemed to be facing a wall that gleamed slightly as her eyes adjusted to the pitch black darkness.
Hearing groans from different people further down the line she slowly recognized the people strapped to the chairs beside her as the BAU team of the FBI, her team. The person directly next to her was Special Agent Emily Prentiss, with the team's technical analysis Penelope Garcia next to her. After her was Special Agent Derek Morgan, and then finally with about ten feet between him and what looked like a heavy metal door came the team's leader Special Agent Aaron Hotchner. Taking a chance she looked around again to check that there was no-one else in the room with them she tried awakening the sleeping FBI agents.
"Guys, wake up! Come on. Wake up."
Groaning, Morgan and Prentiss seemed to be the first to be able to rouse themselves from their drug enforced sleep. After they had both calmed themselves down and realized who else was in the room, they helped JJ try to wake the other team members. After they were all awake, JJ turned her attention to something that had been annoying her since she had been awake.
"Where's Reid?!" she asked the rest of the team, confused. The absence of Special Agent Dr. Spencer Reid had been nagging at the back of her mind as he was the only member of the team not there, but they were saved from their answers as the doors opened to reveal someone that nobody in the room thought they would see again. He was being lugged into the room by a tall man who seemed to be in his fifties by what they could make of him behind his black mask.
The man pulled the unconscious Gideon on to a seat that nobody had seen before. He lined him up with the rest of them and tied Gideon's hands behind his back and wrapped the tape around the legs of the chair and his hostage's legs. Looking at everyone, who had been staring at him, the man spoke in a fine gravelly voice. "Finally. We've been waiting ages for you all to wake up. We couldn't have you missing the show now could we?" with his final words he took a step back and slammed the heavy metal door behind him.
After yelling at the ex-agent of their group, former Special Agent Jason Gideon for at least five minutes he awoke with a start. After telling Gideon what they knew about the situation, which was very little, JJ decided that she needed to ask her first question again as the answer was terrifying her.
"Where's Reid?" she asked talking a little louder than she meant to, her voice bouncing off of the walls.
Nobody really knew what to say to that question as a light flickered to life on the other side of the gleaming wall JJ had noticed earlier. Everyone realized what the man had meant by 'the show' as they faced a wall made entirely of glass and found themselves looking into a dark room with slight blood spattering on the floor and the last and youngest member of their group, Special Agent Dr Spencer Reid, lying bound on the floor next to a nearly shattered chair with obvious signs that he had been beaten.
A noise filtered over what must have been a sound system and the masked man's voice floated over the system.
"Now, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the show."
