Spencer Reid walked into the BAU on Monday and put his things down on his desk. There was paperwork piled up that sat untouched next to his computer. The Youngest agent was the first one at work today which wasn't unusual. He sat down and started to work on the pile. It was another half and hour before the rest of his teams began to show up. Hotch was the first, he mumbled his hello before heading into his office. The next to show up was Morgan, who didn't say anything before he went into his office. The rest of his team showed up soon after but Spencer stopped paying attention. By the time his team was all there he had made a huge dent in his work.

Hotch called the team to the bullpen to talk. Reid was happy to have Emily and JJ back, he really missed them. Hotch had everyone sit down and Reid looked at him.

"Alright everyone, I just wanted to tell you that Strauss thinks its a good idea for us to add people to the team. She's thinking that might help change things up. We compromised. She is bringing in two new agents. They will be arriving today." Hotch said. Reid nodded and looked down at his desk.

An hour later the new agents came in. The first agent was tall, he looked pretty small and didn't look like he had a lot of muscles. This agent reminded everyone of Reid. The second new agent was shorter then the rest of the men on the team but he made up with it in muscles. He looked very buff. He looked like he was in his mid to late 30's. Everyone went over to introduce themselves but Spencer hung back.

"I'm Dustin Mills. Its nice to meet all of you. " Mills told them.

"Hi I'm Justin McClarren its nice to meet you all." Reid didn't say anything. McClarren was alot like him which made Reid nervous.

"Sorry to break up the party but we have a new case" Garcia told the team

They all walked together talking as they went to go sit down. The youngest agent stayed in the back and didn't say anything as he found a seat and quickly sat down. He noticed two new chairs around the table for the new agents.

"We are heading to Seattle Washington. Last night the body of Nicole Foster was found tied to a train track. She was split open from neck to toes."

Reid looked at the images of the crime scene in front of him. "Not only that they seemed to have opened up her chest. Her heart was missing. Her breast were also removed." Reid stated.

Garcia nodded. "The body of 30 year old Marie King was found at a bus stop. Her body was found in a similar fashion. She was found two weeks ago. The first body found was Hayley Dennis. She was found a month ago Her chest was opened like the other two victims but, her breast weren't removed." Garcia told the team.

"Sexual sadist it seems like. Do we know if he cut the breast pre or post mortem?" JJ asked

"The ME hasn't released the report yet so we don't know. There are also signs of sexual assault." Garcia told the team. Reid took all the information in. His team continued to talk but he went into his head trying to figure something out.

" Nicole Foster was 33. She was a doctor. She has been married for 8 years. She and her husband were planning on adopting according to her social media. 30 year old Marie King was a stay at home mom. She had 2 kids. She is now a nurse. The Kings moved to Washington a year ago after her husband got a new job. Hayley Dennis is 29 years old. She was a Radiation Therapist at Virginia Mason Medical Center. She was single and had an apartment in Seattle near the hospital." Garcia stated.

"Did they all work at the same hospital?" Rossi asked

" No Marie worked at Northwest Hospital & Medical Center and the the other two worked in separate departments at Virginia Mason Medical Center." Garcia responded quickly.

"It seems as though this unsub is going after people in the medical field. A doctor a nurse and a Radiation therapist. This unsub might have gone to school for something in the medical field. I think we should check everyone who either went to medical school or nursing school and pull up and name of people who didn't Graduate " JJ asked. Garcia nodded.

"Okay, Wheels up in 20, Reid can I talk to you for a minute?" Hotch asked. Reid nodded and the rest of the team left the round table.

"Are you okay? You haven't been giving us information lately and that's not like you." The older agent asked. Reid looked at him and just smiled.

"Yeah Hotch I'm fine. If I have any pertinent information then I will be sure to tell you. I just don't have any information at this time." Reid told his boss. Hotch nodded and Reid excused himself.

Reid got a ride with JJ to the plane. The ride over was rather quiet. JJ turned on the radio and they both listened in silence. This had become normal. Lately he had just shut down from the team. He still can remain professional but he just didn't feel like apart of this family the team tried so hard to make it seem like they were. But they weren't. They never were. He didn't want the new members to see the break in the team.

When they arrived on the plane Reid went and sat down by himself on the couch. Everyone else went and found seats on the plane. The two new agents sat together but made sure they sat close to the other team members. Rossi, JJ Emily Morgan and Hotch sat together.

Everyone had noticed how withdrawn Reid had become. He didn't talk alot anymore unless it pertained to the case.

Nobody said anything about it, to each other or to him. Hotch looked at Spencer who was laying on the couch and watched him silently. Garcia came up onto the screen and Reid sat up.

"What did you find out Garcia?" Hotch asked

"The autopsy of the first two victims. Their breast were removed pre-mortem. The ME found that they were raped as well. They found DNA on the first victim but it wasn't found on the last two." Garcia told the team.

"It sounds like we are dealing with a necrophilic He removed the breast post mortem. Garcia did the unsub rape them post mortem?" Reid asked. Garcia nodded.

"They found some injuries post mortem to their-" Garcia said but never finished

"Is there any matches in IAFIS?" Hotch asked.

"No, if he has done this before there was no DNA left behind" Garcia told them.

"Morgan and Rossi You head to the Morgue find out what you can about the bodies. JJ and Prentiss go to the latest crime Scene, The rest of us will get set up at the precinct." Hotch told the team. Everyone nodded and went back to what they were doing before. Everyone watched Reid quickly head back to the couch and lay back down, back facing the team. Rossi and Hotch gave each other a concerned look before looking down at their files and continuing to work.

The rest the plane ride the team talked, everyone secretly watching Spencer. Reid could feel the eyes on his back. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Not soon enough the the plane landed. Spencer stood up checking himself wanting to make sure he was the last person off the plane. He got into the car with Hotch and the new guys. He sat in the back seat like he almost always did. The team decided to stop trying to figure out what was wrong with Reid. They figured he would talk when he wanted to.

When they arrive sat the precinct Hotch introduced them to the Lieutenant. Lieutenant George Coy showed them into a room where there were bulletin boards along with a map and pictures of the victims. Reid walked over to the map and started the geological profile.

Hotch McLarren and Mills went to go interview the victims families. That left Spencer in the room by himself. For the first time all day he didn't have someone breathing down his neck. This made Reid happy and he wasn't sure why. Maybe because he was sick of the worried glances and the pity stares from people who he though loved him but time and time again have proved him wrong. Plus he worked better when it was quiet. He was able to focus solely on the geological profile.

The team came back and didn't have much new information to give the team. Reid added the last place the victims were found to the geological profile.

"They were all taken within 5 miles of each other." Reid announced

"What?" He heard JJ ask

"They all live throughout Seattle. But, if you look at where they were taken it is within these 5 miles" Reid said pointing out the area he was talking about.

"Hayley was taken at Virginia Mason Medical Center, Marie was taken at The Rhododendron Cafe and Nicole was taken near Canon" Reid told them.

Nobody said anything back because Reid got up and left the room. Hours went by with no new leads. After working for hours with little answers, the team decided to call it a night. They drove to the hotel and Hotch gave them room assignments. Reid was with Mills. The girls were together, McClarren and Morgan shared a room and lastly Hotch and Rossi were together.

Reid opened the door to his room and looked around. Allowing Mills to get first pick of the beds, though he didn't mind either way. Mills picked the bed closest to the wall so Spencer put his stuff on his bed and started to pull out clothing and his toiletries to get ready for bed. He went into the bathroom without a word and got into the shower. For the first time all day he was alone. He allowed himself to break down. He didn't have to act like he was fine and in this very moment he figured would be a good time to release it all. So he didn't break in front of his teammates. He pulled himself together and finished in the shower. He brushed his teeth and then his hair. Looking at himself in the mirror he saw dark circles under his eyes worse then they usually were. He put all of his things back together and sighed unlocking the door and turning off the light. He went back over to his bag throwing his things inside and tossing his bag to his side of the room. He crawled into bed and without a word went to sleep.

Mills watched Reid crawl into bed. He grabbed his bag and went into the bathroom to take a shower. He took a quick shower letting he warm water hit his skin. This was his favorite way to end the day. Everything about this team was confusing for him. He didn't know why Strauss had brought him on. The team seemed to do well without two new agents. That brought him to Reid, everyone else on the team seemed to get along and the youngest agent was an outsider. He wondered why the team didn't say something to him. Before long Mills shut off the shower and got dressed. He brushed his teeth and hair before shutting off the light and grabbing his things. He dropped them at the foot of his bed before he climbed into his own bed and falling asleep.
