Please if you have any suggestions or anything you might like to see come around let me know. XXXXD
"Is it really Autumn Bailey? I mean THE Autumn Bailey?" The voice over the speaker almost spoke so fast that no one could understand her. While most eyes glanced at the stranger that had excused herself for a phone call, Derek Morgan sighed bemused as usual. The voice of the perky blonde always cheered him up no matter the case and now he needed it more than ever. While the others had taken to her and her knowledge he was still unsure. He would get no help from Mr. Statistics who although joined in the conversation had gone unusually quiet and spent more time looking at the new girl then the map in front of him. The hum of the office surrounded them, but no one else paid attention to the phone call. While Hotch, JJ and Rossi had taken on the task of questioning the families, Morgan and Garcia went over what else they could find.
"And by THE I mean the supernatural networks go to gal, who I must say has an impressive record. Did you know there are now a series of comics based on her life? They're delightful…"
"Baby Girl," Morgan interrupted. "That's all well and good but I'm gonna need some info on the case. Can you find anything else that connects the women?"
"Oh, don't be jealous, your still my number one Dark Prince, I'd buy a whole series of books of you. Even ones without pictures." She laughed knowing he was doing the exact tapping of her no doubt fluffy pen on the keyboard came through loudly on the phone "On the women it's a zilch, Nada, cuput on the connections front. They had different doctors, jobs, lifestyles. They don't even live in the same state The only thing I could find matches the vamp theory you guys are currently rocking, all the women had the same blood type. Which is creepy in and of itself, it's extremly rare. Rh-null." She read out. It was the word Reid needed to look up and sit up.
"That is rare," he said. "Rh-null blood is considered universal. Least likely to have the immune system attack as it doesn't have the rhesus antigens of normal blood types, meaning it can be used with most blood types. It's even rarer in Caucasian people. The doctors call it "Golden Blood" under fifty people have been reported to have it worldwide."
"And three white women, all born and living in the US have it?"
"That's nigh on impossible," Reid answered, coming from him they knew it had to be.
"Even so, unless the Unsub had access to their medical records how could they even now that?" Prentiss slipped into the seat next to Reid with her coffee.
"Garcia can you see if their are any blood donation areas around the homes of the victims? Their blood types call for anonymity, but they may have paper records there?" Reid suggested.
"Don't worry my darlings, mama is on it." With that Garcia hung up the phone and left her friends pondering her news. Reid looked away from his map once again. There was something about the way she spoke to him earlier, something about the blush as she spoke that stuck in his mind. But he pushed it away knowing now was not the time
Soon, they had been given their orders, and the three made their way to the park.
It was a wide space yet it was blanketed with shrubbery and trees, plenty of places to hide. While Reid tracked the space between the road and the mark where the body was found, Autumn moved forward to scope out the land. She quickly disappeared from view despite the looking eyes that followed her.
"You know Kid, if you keep staring she's gonna get ideas." Reid had almost forgotten that Morgan and Prentiss had joined him. He lent forward against the bonnet of the SUV, his fingers lingering over the lines on the map.
"I'm not staring," Immediately biting his lip looking back to the map, trying to find a geographical link from the park the bodies where found in.
"Ah, Reid!" Prentis finally joined in the laugh and nudged the thin boy next to her. "You were totally staring,"
"I was wondering why she hasn't taken off her glasses yet, that's all. It's suspicious."
"Actually it's hetrochromia Iridis."
Autumn snuck up on them again with an amused smile, causing Reid to blush again like a child caught being naughty. While Morgan and Prentiss chuckled, Autumn lent forward. "Actually more Irritus. People tend to be uncomfortable looking at my eyes, and the condition causing the change has made them sensitive to sunlight." She explained. "I apologise if I seem rude."
"Condition?" Prentiss cocked her head to the side as she spoke. Her soft concerned voice earning a more gentle smile from the new agent.
"There's no need for concern for me or you. I'm unarmed. I don't carry a gun. My sight is fine, just sensitive to light." She looked out over the park again. Her secret tentatively playing on her lips. She was tempted to tell them the truth, but instead she gave her new friend a small acknowledging nod.
"Besides we're here for the victims, not me. Can you see anything?" her eyes fell on Reid again, setting his cheeks aflame even though he couldn't see them.
"If we're going by human rules here, the unsub probably picked this place because of the cover from the road to the centre of the park." Morgan said, pointing to each place as he mentioned it. Immediately he fell into the persona, following the steps the suspect would have taken. "I've got a dead body. It's full moon, all the freaks and geeks are out to spot their very own werewolf. So I need get rid of the body quick, especially if someone else is pulling my strings. If I'm caught, they're neck is exposed. I need to find the most hidden space. The other girls are further back, I need to get to my spot quickly."
"But the body is in the most exposed area, no tree cover, no hiding spaces, but closer to the road."
"It was rushed." Reid concluded.
"it makes sense," Prentiss turned blocking her eyes from the blaring sunlight. "Perhaps they heard a car, or someone coming."
"Wait," Reid stopped again, his hands rising as he thought over the previous conversations. "Didn't you say that Lucy Ward had Lycan hair under her nails, and bite marks? What if that's it, what if it wasn't an intentional set up? What if they were interrupted by a Lycan turning? The UNSUB had access to the hair and did it to throw suspicion off. It would explain the bite marks on the body. "
"But wouldn't the Lycan have attacked the UNSUB?" A gentle laugh filled the air, as Autumn crossed her arms.
"It would have, unless it was near dawn and nearing the end of the change. I can get my boss to give permission to your tech for access to our Lycan GPS, she can look through the files and see if anyone was hear last full moon during end of their turning. Or check recent hospital records for someone reporting a wolf bite." she was one the phone before the others could even answer her.
"By the way, you guys are awesome," She pointed out smirking with a light wink.
