Full Description: Penelope was perfectly settled into her life with her new friends until the new girl came forward about her childhood. But Penelope had a secret of her own, several in fact. What would Morgan do when he found out? Would she be able to keep the life she made at the BAU? Or would everything come crashing down around her? Scarlette worked so hard to bury the part of her life that could hurt the person she loves more than anything else in the world, but when a case from her past comes to light she can no longer bury it. Will her new home be ripped from her forever?
This is set when Penelope joined the BAU. But there never was an Elle or Gideon. Not that either character was bad I just felt that it was more complete with Hotch, JJ, Emily, Rossi, Morgan, Garcia, and Reid. I know this is nothing like the first case they worked on.
Penelope was so glad to go to work. She had never even set foot in the main part of the FBI building before. She was met at the beginning of the day by SSA Aaron Hotchner. He welcomed her to the team and showed her what would be her office. She walked out the door and to her car and grabbed a box from the car. She walked back into the main building just as everyone else around her filled in. She was almost struck dumb by the African-American god-looking man. But she'd been suckered by too many pretty faces to have anything to do with the one standing before her. So she kept on walking. Before she could walk away she heard, "Gomez." She kept walking having no idea who he was talking. "Hey, Baby Girl." It finally dawned on her. He thought her name was Gomez. She turned around. "Baby-Girl?"Penelope gave him her thousand watt smile and fluttered her eyelashes. What could it hurt to flirt? "Forgive me I didn't know your real-" He started.
Penelope decided to interrupt him. "I've been called worse."
Derek saw her walk in with that box full of stuff. He turned to Reid and said, "What is the name of the new tech girl?"
"I think its Gomez or something like that." The kid said preoccupied by what he was reading. So Morgan looked at her as she walked in the doors off the elevator.
"Gomez." He had said but apparently she hadn't heard him . "Hey, Baby Girl." That got her attention.
"Baby-Girl?" she asked
"Forgive me, I didn't know your real..."
She smiled "I've been called worse."
He looked over at Reid who was having a grand ole time. He knew her name Garcia; he just wanted Derek to look like a fool in front of Penelope who he was obviously crushing on. Crushing being the operative word there, like, he could feel his heart being crushed when she wasn't there. It was irrational and he knew it. Being a profiler, however, he knew feelings were never rational. He razzed Reid for a little bit before JJ came down the stairs of the BAU. "We have a case. Someone is kidnapping kids. We have eight victims so far. No bodies though." Hotch spoke up next with. "Ok everybody, wheels up in 15."
It did not take long for Penelope to get into the swing of things. She loved her new job and everyone around her. When she got her system set up the way she wanted there was nothing she couldn't do for them. She flew through the system with ease. This was definitely her element. When Derek called she was so confident she answered the phone with. "You have reached Penelope Garcia. Goddess of all things knowable and unknowable; speak and be heard."
She heard Derek's husky chuckle on the other line. "Well Goddess, I need a background check on a man by the name of Professor Zachary Cole."
"I got nothing, sweet cheeks. I found a driver's license but no birth certificate or criminal record. Probably an alias, give me 15 minutes to dig a little deeper and I might find something." She ran through every background check or every name even close to Zachary Cole. 15 minutes later on the dot she called Derek. "Hey Hot Stuff you are going to love me forever. Zachary Cole was an alias. But the guy wasn't too careful about covering up his alias. He was born Kyle Zachary Cole. He had gotten caught peeping in windows of teenage girls when he was 16. He got sent to juvie-for breaking in and stealing their underwear-where he stayed until he turned 18, supposedly coming out a new man."
"Must have been a lot of houses to get two years." Derek Morgan said.
"Every single girl on his block. He got his GED a year later in 1983. In 1993 he got his PhD in Psychology and a minor in history. By this time he was able to teach wherever he wanted but he chose Willow Creek Montana. A school where the Junior High and High School were in the same building with the same teachers. The kidnapping started in the spring of 1994. All blonde girls between the ages of 12 and 15. Over the course of the two years he was there, they found 10 bodies. He was gone by the winter of 1996. Then Zachary Cole Miller shows up in Snow Falls Idaho another small town with a Middle School and High School joined together. He has all the same qualifications as Kyle Zachary Cole, but with a different name and social security number. The kidnappings started later that winter. He was there for five years with a body count totaling 21." She said
"How many aliases does this guy have, Baby Girl?" Derek asked
"Zachary Tyler Cole is his fourth. His third one was Sioux Falls Iowa, 2001. Kyle Cole Smith racked up 16 bodies in 3 years. Now he has been in Maine for 2 years and racked up a total 14 bodies with one girl missing. Leaving us with a grand total of 61 deaths and one missing in a 12 year span. Wait there seems to be one that escaped in 2004. She moved away when her parents refused to press charges. Thought she was lying. Her name is Scarlette Lacy."
"Does he have any land?" he said.
"Right now Professor Zachary Cole owns two pieces of land. His house he lives in now and a climate controlled storage facility down by the docks."
"Thank you, Baby Girl." Morgan said quickly and got off the phone.
Give that woman a gold star. Man she is good. Derek thought. No one else could have found and linked together four aliases in fifteen minutes. Even if they were hidden that poorly. Derek gave the info to Hotch. "Ok Derek, Spencer, Emily you guys go check out the storage facility. Rossi and I will grab one of the detectives and head over to the house." They all nodded and headed in their separate directions. They pulled up to the main office and Derek got out. He ran into the office and was faced by what Derek could only call a slob and even Derek could be a little messy. "Excuse me, sir. Have you seen this man?" Derek asked pulling out a picture of Kyle Zachary Cole. "Oh, Kyle Allen, he was just here yesterday."
"What is his locker number?" Derek asked and he told them. Derek ran to locker 437 and opened it. The girl was there lying helpless on the floor, she was maybe 12 or 13. "Are you Melissa Andrews?" The girl nodded slowly. He nodded for Emily to take care of her. Emily nodded and went over to the girl. Next he got on his radio and spoke to Hotch. Derek told him what happened and Hotch put out an APB on Kyle Zachary Cole. Within hours Kyle Cole was in custody and Melissa was back with her family. Derek thought for a while on the plane ride. "How could a guy smart enough to get a PhD be dumb enough to leave a trail that any skilled Tech Analyst could find but still evade the cops for 12 years?" Derek mused.
"Well I don't think there are many people as skilled as Ms. Garcia." Rossi replied.
