Hey Guys! This is eventually going to be a Morgan/Garcia story. This is my idea of how the final episodes of the entire show should go. If this was written for the show, it would most likely cover two episodes but this is just gonna be one story. I hope you like it! Please read and review!
Chapter 1
Everyone on the team was sitting at the round table, waiting for Garcia to brief them on the newest case. But, Garcia wasn't getting started very fast. She was looking around the table at her team and family, because she noticed something wasn't right. Someone was missing.
"Where's Morgan?" , she asked, worriedly
"We don't know, Pen. We were hoping you had talked to him.", said JJ
"It isn't like Morgan to be late and not call." ,said Reid, earning him a death glare from Kate, who then turned to Garcia and said,
"I'm sure he's fine Garcia."
Garcia wasn't convinced. She had tried to call Morgan the night before and that morning, and he had not answered her calls. Just at that moment though, Morgan walked in and quietly sat down at the table.
Hotch gave him a frown and said, "Nice of you to join us Agent Morgan."
Morgan took the hint.
"Sorry I'm late sir. My alarm didn't go off and I overslept.", he said.
Nobody actually bought that excuse, but now wasn't the time to go into it. Hotch nodded to Garcia, letting her know to start the briefing.
"This is a bizarre case, Crime Fighters."
"Aren't they all?", Rossi said, a bit sarcastically.
"True, my Itallian Stallion. But, this is a VERY interesting case in the way the bodies were killed and where they were dumped."
"What does that mean, Baby Girl?", Morgan asked.
"Glad you asked,Chocolate Thunder." ,Garcia said. Then she put up the first picture.
"This is Sheila Walden,age twenty-five. She was found at the top of a mountain in Yellowstone National Park, stabbed with a stick." The next photo came up.
"This is Jocelyn Mardes, age twenty -three. She was found hung half way up a cliff with her own repelling rope." Garcia pointed to the third photo.
"This," she said, "is Kayla Johnson, age twenty six. She was found at the bottom of the cliff with every bone in her body broken." They all looked at the photos, each lost in their own thoughts as the imagined what those girls had gone through. Finally Kate spoke up.
"Garcia, how do we know these cases are connected?"
"Well besides the fact that they were all found in the same national park, in fact around the same mountain, they are all brunettes of the same build and in the same age range." Garcia paused and continued.
" Sadly, another girl was reported missing today. Brooke Flemming. She is twenty four years old. No body has been found yet.
"So there's a good possibility she's still alive. Garcia, have the families of the other girls been notified?", asked Hotch.
"Yes sir. They will meet with you at the Police Station in Mammoth, Wyoming. Also Brooke's brother, the one who reported her missing, will be there." , the TA replied. Hotch nodded and said,
"Thanks Garcia. Ok, Get your go bags and meet at the airport. wheels up in 30." The team got up and headed to get their things. On his way out, Morgan was stopped by Garcia.
"Hotstuff,what's wrong?" ,she asked softly. Morgan wouldn't meet her eyes.
"What are you talking about,Penelope."
"Oh ,come on,Derek! You don't really think I bought that alarm clock excuse! I know you too well. So, what is it?"
"I don't wanna talk about it." Garcia gave him an uncertain look.
Morgan sighed and said, "Look. Don't worry about me,Mamma. I'm fine."
"I can't help it,Derek. I can tell something's up, and when you are hurting, I hurt. I can't let it go."
"I know. I know. But, I promise you, it's fine. Now, leave it alone. I'll call you later."
Morgan gave Garcia a hug and quick kiss on the cheek, and then left. Garcia stared after him and sighed. She knew she couldn't let him deal with whatever it was alone. She was going to have to find a way to get it out of him.
