I am going to let you all know now that this story will be told in smaller chapters than what I usually write. I hope you all enjoy this story as much as I do writing it!


Reid was trying to concentrate on the file in front of him but Morgan kept crumpling up pieces of paper and trying to throw them into the trash can next to Reid. He didn't know if it was on purpose or not but Morgan kept missing the trash can. Instead he would hit Reid or his desk or the file he was trying to read.

Finally Reid looked up and gave Morgan a glare. "You know, if you would work on your files as long as you fail at throwing piece of paper in the trash, you would not have so much to do at once." He said.

Morgan shrugged his shoulders and crumpled another piece of paper.

"We have a case." Hotch said as he walked to the conference room.

Morgan stopped his paper game and Reid closed his file. They followed Hotch into the conference room where Kate, JJ, Rossi, and Garcia were already waiting.

"Alright my crime fighters, I bring you a case that is one of the weirdest ever. There have been four murders in the Four Corners area. One in each state and they asked for us for how the scenes and bodies are left." Garcia said holding the power point clicker in her hand for minute for a dramatic pause. After a minute she clicked it and showed them some crime scene photos.

"This is Hannah Berlet, she was found in Colorado." The picture showed a young blond sitting in a chair facing a wall. The wall was slightly obscured by the angle of the camera but they could tell it was covered in blood. Garcia changed the picture again.

"This is Janise Kit, found in Arizona." Janise's picture was almost the exact same as Hannah's again with the body facing a bloody wall. "Lilly Ranson in New Mexico and finally Grant Homer in Utah." Garcia showed their photos and they were all the same.

"Garcia what is that on the walls they are looking at?" Rossi asked.

"Yes well that is the thing why the authorities have asked us to come in."

Garcia pulled up her last slide with four pictures each of the walls that the victims were staring at. The first was of a normal family standing in front of their house they next two were portraits of the victims and the last one was of a dog and cat chasing each other. They all stared at the photos.

"These are really detailed, do we know what the unsub used to paint with?" Reid asked.

Garcia grimaced. "They ran some tests and it is all in blood." She informed them.

"Wheels up in thirty." Hotch said standing up. Rossi joined him and they were the first one's out.

Morgan and Kate looked at each other. This case was nothing like they had ever done before. Kate walked out with Garcia leaving Morgan and Reid. Morgan was standing up when he saw Reid was still sitting studying the file in front of him.

"Hey pretty boy come on. We don't want to miss the jet." Morgan said with a laugh. Reid looked up at him.

"Oh yeah." Reid said gathering his things. Morgan chuckled as he followed Reid. That boy could be so oblivious some times.

"This is some good work." Rossi said on the jet 40 minutes later.

Morgan looked up from his file looking at Rossi confused. "What do you mean?" He asked.

Rossi pulled out the picture of the latest wall painting.

"The work here is incredible. They took great detail in the painting. They even treated the blood like they would with normal paint. There is very little smearing or dripping." Rossi said pulling out each painting.

"So they would have had to have a long period of time in each place to do this kind of work." Kate said seeing what Rossi was saying.

Rossi nodded.

"Okay Rossi, I want you and Reid to go to the latest crime scene. See what you find. Morgan and Kate, I want you two to go to the morgue. Me and JJ are going to the station and see what the authorities have so far." Hotch informed the team.

Everyone nodded going back to their files. The on board computer turned on and Garcia's face appeared. "So I just got the results and all the blood on the walls is human. The DNA results came in and they all were matched. The authorities have checked and all of the donors are alive."

"That's a relief." JJ said. Garcia nodded her head in agreement.

"So we only have the four victims?" Morgan asked looking through the file.

"Yep. I have started a search to see if there are any others but so far they are all around the Four Corners area."

"Thank you Garcia." Rossi said as the monitor turned off.

Kate voiced what was now on everyone's mind. "So the question is, where did the unsub get the blood?"
