Revelations Rewritten.

Part 1.

Hankel's House.

Morgan POV...

"I'll get Garcia on it." I tell Hotch walking out of the room. Garcia is set up at Hankels' computers. She's trying to find anything that can help us find Reid.

"Garcia, I need you to log into the system as Tobias' father."

"The system was set up three months ago, dad was already dead." she retorts.

"I know that smarty pants but do it for your boy anyway alright." I say putting a hand on her shoulder.

"Charles Hankel." she does as I asked and suddenly all the screens change. Images of violence and chaos fill the monitors.

"Oh." she says looking up to look at the screens. I know how much she hates seeing this kind of shit. But we need to know everything we can about Charles. Since odds are he is the one who chose where to take Reid.

At the Shack.

Reid's POV...

"You ready boy?" Charles asks pulling my hair so I'll look at him.

"Ready for what?" I ask even though I know I may not like the answer.

"My weakling son thinks God gave you to him for a reason." he says as he lets go of my hair and shoves my head sideways.

"Lets see if we are both right." he continues, turning my chair around and going over to pull out a camera on a tripod. I have a moment to wonder where he got that.

Morgan's POV...

I was in the room with Garcia watching her work, when several screens went blank suddenly.

"What happened?"

"I don't know." she says as the screens come back and reveal Reid. Bloody and beaten, handcuffed to a chair.

"Oh my God!" she says in shock at how bad he looks.

"Guys, guys get in here." I holler, the rest of the team needs to see this. They all come running.

"He's been beaten." Prentiss says as she looks at the monitors.

"Can't you track him." JJ demands, upset.

"Hankels only streaming this to his home computer" Garcia responds.

"This is for us. He knows we are here." Gideon says. I can't wait to get this son of a fucking bitch.

"I'm gonna put this guys head on a stick." I can't help saying, knowing that we all want this bastard. We all want Reid back. Preferably alive.

"Why can't you locate him?" Hotch asks.

"He's re-routing to a different I.P. address every thirty seconds, I can't track him." Garcia replies clearly getting irritatied. We watch unable to do anything more.

Reid's POV..

"Can you really see inside men's minds?" Charles asks me, turning away from the laptop screens. He faces me,

"See these vermin. Choose one to die. I'll let you choose one to live." he says, glancing back at the monitors, then back to me. I glance at the monitors as well.

"No." I won't choose anyone to die.

"I thought you wanted to be some kind of savior?" he says, angry now.

"Your a sadist in a psychotic break, you won't stop killing. Your word's not true."

"The other heathens are watching." he says, causing me to glance at the tripod camera. I have to choose my words carefully. Try to give hints so that my team can find me.

"Choose a sinner to die and I'll say the name and address of the person to be saved." he says, forcing my attention away from the camera.

"I won't choose who gets slaughtered and have you leave their remains behind like a poacher." I keep glancing quickly at the camera, hoping they will get my hint. Tobias poached that animal earlier from somewhere close by.

"Can you really see into my mind boy, can you see I'm not a liar." he yells as he picks me up by my arms, lifting me so he can yell in my face.

"Choose one to die and save a life otherwise they are all dead." he says as he throws me back down.

"Alright I'll choose who lives." I don't want to do this, but I have no other choice right now.

"They're all the same." he snaps, moving so I can see the four laptop screens.

"Far right screen." I tell him as a brunette woman walks into her kitchen.

"Marilyn David. 4913 Walnut Creek Rd." he says. I watch the screen as the woman answers the phone, and turns to the laptop. Suddenly the screen goes black. Relief that the team contacted her, and she's safe fills me. The relief is short lived however when I realize that leaves three screens for him to choose from. He turns from them to me, and turns off the camera.

"You've done your part, now it's my turn." Raphaels' voice makes my blood run cold. I watch helplessly in my bonds as Raphael leaves the shack, slamming the door behind him. I can do nothing but watch the remaining monitors and wonder which innocent people are about to die.

Hotch's POV...

Morgan goes out of the room, hitting the door in his anger. I let him go so he can calm himself.

"So now what, wait for a 911 call and hope we get there in time?" the sheriff asks.

We move back into the kitchen, and all we can do now is wait for that call. I know we'll be too late for the victims, but right now I can't think about that. Right now I just want to get Reid back. Sure enough we get a call that Hankels' killed again. We get to the scene, a nice house in a nice suburb. I wonder what the sin here was and hope Reid wasn't watching this happen. The house is crawling with CSU and police. Gideon and I walk into a living room, every light blazing. The sheriff comes up to us.

"Slaughtered same as the others. We've got roadblocks for a 15 mile radius. Every unit's on the road but so far nothing." he says.

"I don't know how much longer Reid can hold out." I say more to Gideon then the Sheriff.

"Who were the victims?" Gideon asks.

"Pam and Mike Hayes. He was a local defense attorney." he answers.

"And what bible passage was left?" he asks.

"Isaiah 59." he hands me the passage to read as Gideon walks to the laptop.

"No one calls for justice, no one pleads their case with integrity. They rely on empty arguements, they offer lies. They concieve trouble and give birth to evil." I read it outloud for Gideon whose at the laptop. I hear him talk quietly, he's telling Reid to hold on. I just hope Reid gets the message. For all we know he could already be dead.
