United We Stand- A cinny-ster fic

Disclaimer:

As always I do not own any part of ABC, CBS, or Criminal Minds. For entertainment purposes only. Any resemblance to person's living, dead or fictional is purely coincidental.

United we stand is part of an on going Criminal Minds based story with returning original fictional characters, and the original characters from the show. United is broken down into three separate stories that focuses on an unsub that is on a mission based killing spree. Return of a main character and a familiar face from 52 pick-up in the third part of the series. The introduction of Julianne Weaver is in The Butcher's mind parts 1&2.

Chapter 1

The church bells ring, slightly off key. Abruptly the red doors on a white stucco church burst open. The children run in all different directions, down the cement steps and onto the walkway, laughing. The pastor stands at the doorway, shaking the hands of the parishioners. Slowly people make their way to the cars parked, some on the street and some in the lot along side of the Sunday school building. As is the normal routine, many people linger on the stairs and sidewalk, chatting. A teenage boy, approximately 14 years old stands with a couple of other boys his age. They are trying to appear uninterested in the three older girls, which are making their way down the street on the opposite walkway. An 8 year old boy, dressed in the same white shirt and black pants as his older brother, impatiently waits at the red doors with his grandmother. She is thanking the Pastor for a lovely service and the boy feels it is taking too long. He is getting antsy and wants to go down the steps to be with his brother. His grandmother wraps her arm around the front of the boy hugging his chest, trying to keep him from taking off.

The sound of a car gunning its engine and speeding down the road catches everyone's attention. They look in the direction of the sound. A gold Dodge Durango flies through the stop sign at the end of the block turning onto the street of the church. The high rate of speed the vehicle is doing makes the congregation stop in their tracks. Everyone watches in horror as the vehicle careens towards them. The back window lowers five inches and the sound of rapid gun fire sends everyone scrambling to the ground. The church bells stop ringing and the sound of squealing tires replaces the shrill noise of the bells. It seems as if a long moment of silence hangs in the air before the sound of screaming, and crying comes from the people gathered on what would be a normal Sunday. From the doorway, the boy screams "Deshawn, Deshawn!" At the lifeless body of his older brother.
