Rossi was the first one to arrive. He tried to get some sleep but he had been interrupted when the members filled the room.
"Someone didn't get enough sleep here," Prentiss joked when Rossi tried to stiffle a yawn. He just glared at her while the others laughed at her remarked.
"You definitely look like hell, Rossi."
"Thank you for the reminder, JJ," Rossi told her sarcastically while massaging his neck. He seem oblivious to the others concerned faces when he shut his eyes for a while.
"You sure you're okay, Rossi?," Reid asked him while studying the older man face.
"How many times did I have to tell you that I'm okay? Please. There's many other things that you need to concern other than me," he tried to keep his emotion in check by sounding normal.
"We have an interesting case," Hotch got in with Garcia trailed behind him. He took his place beside Rossi and motioned for Garcia to continue.
"Alright my crime fighter heroes. Apparently we have an interesting request to give a profile about a drug dealer."
"Wait a minute. We only deal with homicide. Why we need to involve in this kind of crime?"
"Because the President himself ask us to do it. Secondly, the case involve two countries".
"That's right boss man. Next time please don't interrupt my presentation, my hot chocolate," Garcia told Hotch and Morgan respectively. The others chuckled slightly.
"What are the two countries, Garcia?," Reid asked.
"That will be our nation and Japan."
Rossi stiffened when he heard that they would needed to go to Japan. His body stilled for a minute. His actioned was not go unnoticed by Hotch who glanced worriedly at him. He just shook his head to get out from the stupor.
Do we need to take one of the members from the bureau for as a translator?," JJ asked while Prentiss nodded her head.
"No. Although Japanese are their mother tongue but they can speak English too. Don't worry," they nodded their head.
"We will start profiling in the jet. Wheels in 20 minutes," the others flied out from the room. Rossi heard the others talked excitedly about the trip that they would be going. He couldn't helped but sighed for his fate.
