A/N: This is set at the start of Season 10 for Criminal Minds, where Emily has replaced Blake and there's no Will or Henry. It's set at the start of Season 5 of Rizzoli & Isles, where Frost is still alive.

Also would just like to point out that Rizzles is my OTP but there will only be Rizzles friendship in this story, simply because I love the idea of pairing my two favourite characters, JJ and Maura.


"My decision is final Rizzoli." Cavanaugh stated firmly.

"Oh come on, we don't need the feds, they're going to do nothing and then take all the credit!" Jane exclaimed.

"Either you work with these Agents or you're off the case Rizzoli." Cavanaugh replied sternly.

Jane growled under her breath. "Fine." She said reluctantly.

Cavanaugh nodded. "Good. You're free to go."

Jane almost stormed out of the room back into the squad room to alert Frost and Korsak.

"They're bringing the feds in." Jane muttered bitterly.

"Who?" Korsak asked.

"Some unit called the BAU, a group of psychologists or something like that." Jane explained incorrectly.

"The Behavioural Analysis Unit are actually an elite group of profilers, it's an extremely hard field to get into Jane." Maura said suddenly strutting into the squad room and leaning against Jane's desk.

"Well Jane, who knows, maybe they can help." Korsak said.

"Yeah, you have to admit, we haven't been getting anywhere with this case." Frost said agreeing with Korsak.

"Yeah I know that Frost." Jane scowled.

"You should really stop being so grumpy Jane; studies show that it can have a direct effect on your health." Maura said informatively, tiling her head slightly at Jane.

"Thanks for that Maura." Jane drawled sarcastically.

"You're welcome." Maura said smiling brightly, not catching onto Jane's sarcasm.


"We have a serial killer in Boston. Three, white male victims all killed by a single gunshot wound to the head." Garcia said presenting their latest case.

"They were show execution style." Rossi murmured.

"They were all found in separate warehouses, tied to a chair. The killer also strikes every Friday night."

"Tying them up suggests the unsub doesn't have control of the victims otherwise." Emily added.

"But the killing at the same time each Friday does give the unsub a sense of control." Reid said quickly.

"We could be looking at a female unsub." JJ said.

"We'll go over it more on the jet. Wheels up in 30." Hotch dismissed the team.


The team made their way to BPD and as they got to the squad room they were greeted by Jane.

"I'm Detective Rizzoli, the lead Detective on the case. These are Detectives Frost and Korsak." Jane said gesturing to the two men beside her. They all shook hands as Hotch introduced the team.

"I'm Agent Hotchner; these are Agents Prentiss, Morgan and Jareau." Hotch said gesturing towards his team members. "Agents Rossi and Reid are visiting the crime scenes." Hotch finished, surprising Jane, she thought they would be a bunch of pencil pushers only interested in taking credit for the case, but she may be proven wrong. She was even more surprised by Hotch's next statement.

"Is there a space where we can set up? Also we'd like to see the bodies." Hotch asked.

"I can help you with that; I'm the Chief Medical Examiner, Dr Maura Isles." Maura smiled at the group of agents, she couldn't help but be drawn to the blonde in particular.

Hotch introduced the team for a second time and Maura let her eyes linger on JJ a little before turning back to Hotch.

"I'm just about to get started on the third body, if you'd like to observe." Maura offered politely. She had actually held off on starting the autopsy until the agents arrived, of course she hadn't told Jane that.

JJ struggled to tear her gaze away from the beautiful ME in front of her, dressed in a red dress and black heels with her honey blonde hair cascading down her shoulders in waves, this women looked like a supermodel.

"JJ and Prentiss go with Dr Isles and observe." Hotch said as they both nodded following the ME and JJ couldn't help let her eyes trail up and down the ME's body as they walked behind her.


"Gunshot wound to the frontal lobe was the COD. Judging by rigor mortis TOD is approximately between 9pm-11pm." Maura said her tone professional. "Abrasions on the wrists suggest perhaps the victim had been tied up. The type of pattern indicated zip ties but I'll have to run it through the database to be sure." Maura finished as she examined the victim's wrists.

"So Dr Isles, it's safe to say that this is connected to the other two murders?" JJ asked the ME. 'God, she is beautiful' JJ thought.

"Please call me Maura." The honey blonde smiled at JJ before clearing her throat. "Although I don't like to guess, I think I would be able to confirm this theory Agent Jareau" Maura finished.

JJ appreciated Maura's meticulous method and her reluctance to guess. It was refreshing to see, considering profiling wasn't the most scientific or exact approach.

"Then just call me JJ." JJ smiled brightly towards Maura, her eyes meeting Maura's causing Emily to smirk beside her.

"I'm going to go upstairs and see what the guys have got on the profile." Emily said to the two women. "You should stay here in case Dr Isles finds something else." Emily said towards JJ.

"Thanks for letting us observe." Emily said gratefully to the ME, it wasn't often they found members of the police departments they worked with so welcoming.

"I'd just like to say thank you as well." JJ said once Emily had left, her sparkling blue eyes connecting with Maura's hazel ones. "A lot of local law enforcement can be…let's just say difficult to work with." JJ said with a chuckle.

"I completely understand, I've done quite a bit of research on the FBI and your unit in particular so I know you do exceptional work." Maura smiled.

"Stalking us Dr Isles?" JJ asked her tone a little flirtatious, her eyes playful.

"Of course not Agent Jareau, I just find you and you're work impressive." Maura flirted back, she may be a little socially awkward but she always knew when someone was flirting with her.

JJ just smirked, whilst Maura continued that rest of the autopsy.


JJ made her way back to the squad room after the autopsy was finished and immediately went to the coffee machine were Emily was also making herself a cup.

"Have fun down there?" Emily asked with a raised eyebrow.

"What do you mean?" JJ frowned a little.

"I mean you and Dr Isles took quite a liking to each other." Emily said playfully.

"W-what?" JJ spluttered. "No we didn't!" she exclaimed. "I was just interested in was she was saying about the victim." JJ lied.

Emily sniggered. "Oh, you were interested in more than that alright." It was no secret to Emily or the rest of the team that JJ batted for the other team.

"Shut it Prentiss." JJ smirked, punching Emily's arm playfully as Emily laughed before they made their way over to join the rest of the team.
