Frozen Reliance- Prologue
The Start of Things
"..............Alright, so here's the prologue! Now that Saviors is dead and gone, I've got new ideas to stir up! Pleaz R&R!"
"Garcia, just go on. I will only slow you down. Please, take the kids and go!" Reid shouted desperately.
"No,no! Baby don't make me do that!" Garcia panicked. "Please, don't!" she cried.
"I promised I would keep them safe, and I can't guarantee that you and the kids will make it out if I leave with you. I can't even walk, Garcia. Please, just leave. They're coming! Go!" Reid pleaded as he laid on the floor, grasping his chest.
"Just promise me that you won't die." Garcia said as tears rolled down her eyes-smearing her make-up.
"You know I can't do that." he mumbled. "Go! They're coming!" Garcia nodded her head reluctantly, and picked up the kids.
"We'll get help. We'll come back to get you!" Garcia shouted as she ran off with the children. As she ran off, she heard a scream in the back round.
'Oh god, no. NO! Not him!' she thought as she tightened her grip on the children.....
Two Weeks Earlier..........
"What is this about, Hotch?" JJ asked as she ran to catch up with her boss.
"The BAU has been getting threats lately." he started in a low voice.
"We always get threats, Hotch. What makes this one different?" JJ asked.
"He's been stalking us-everyone on the team." Hotch answered.
"Why aren't you briefing the whole team?" JJ whispered back.
"We can't risk that. The UnSub has watched us at work. I can't risk the room being bugged. I'm talking to each of you separately while some one scans the room." Hotch said. JJ nodded.
"Do you think he's going to on his threats?" she asked.
"I don't know, but I'm not risking anyone's life again. We can't afford to have another agent taken away."
"What brought that on? It comes with the job- we all know that."
"Strauss. She's leading us on this one. We're acting like nothing is out of the ordinary, but we're taking precautions. In the meantime, we're going to continue on with a new case in Quantico. Alright?"
"Yeah, I understand." she mumbled.
"Smile and take the file. It has a copy of the letter he sent us, but we have a good reason to think he's watching us now." Hotch murmured. JJ nodded, and took the file. She gave him a small smile, and carried on her own way. Something wasn't right about this one, and she had a feeling something was about to go bad....
"Reid, come here." Hotch said quietly. Reid nodded, and stood up. He hobbled over to Hotch with his cane.
"I assume this is about the death threats?" Reid whispered. Hotch nodded.
"Who told you?" Hotch mumbled.
"No one; I was just guessing. We always have a death threat on us." he answered.
"This one's different. He's been stalking all of us, at work and after. He gave us a list of what each of you were doing yesterday. He has the most details on you and Garcia, I'm assuming that's because you both live in a public apartment. Everyone else on the team either has a house or live in an exclusive apartment building." Reid nodded.
"Makes sense; we're the easiest to access." Reid agreed.
"Be careful Reid; everyone knows that you have a history with dangerous situations. No offense." Hotch added the last part quickly.
"That's alright;it's just the truth." Reid said.
"He may or may not be watching us now. I put the file on your desk; I would give it to you now, but I had JJ take it from me. I don't want him to get suspicious. It has a copy of the letter he sent us inside it. I want you to memorize it in case we need it later." Hotch said.
"Hotch, I have an eidetic memory; even if I didn't mean to memorize it, I would have anyways." Reid said, rolling his eyes lightly.
"Sometimes, I feel like I'm using you. But I really don't know what we would do with out you, Reid." Hotch mumbled.
"I understand, Hotch. I know you're not using you." Reid said with a slight smile.
"I won't keep you any longer now. Go rest your knee; I need you sharp." Hotch said. Reid nodded.
"Thanks Hotch." he said a bit louder as he walked away.
When Reid sat back at his desk, he opened the file. As he read over the letter, he couldn't help but feel that this threat was different than the others they had gotten. He had sent him a detailed list of what each team member did yesterday. Before Reid read on, he mentally prepared himself. Although he knew Hotch never meant to use him, he still felt like he was sometimes. His memory was a curse sometimes, and he couldn't help but wish to be normal sometimes.
After another moment, he sighed, and opened the file..........
"..........okay, so this is just the prologue.......things pick up pace really quick; I promise :)And I was going to publish another story in which Spencey's leg isnt healing (Morgan/Reid slash!) but decided to go with this one first :) Pleaz R&R!"
