I hope it's not too confusing ;)

"Someone is after us Jane"

They arrived at FBI office, both quite nervous. Jane noticed how scared Lisbon was so he was trying to stay calm, for both of them.

In the elevator Lisbon was avoiding eye contact with him, she was practically at the other end of the place, helpless.

Teresa for the first time in a long time had no idea how to act but then she noticed that Jane is squeezing her hand.

She looked at him with her teary eyes and a weak smile. The truth was, he showed her support when she needed it the most.

When the elevator stopped Lisbon put the mask of a tough cop agaun. Jane felt nice when he realized that she decided to show him her feelings, seeing her that vulnerable was a rare experience .

It really meant a lot. He let her hand go and they went to see their team.

Jane was in Austin only for three weeks soo he didn't have time to visit Grace and Wayne.

Even under those circumstances he was a little excited. He really missed them .They only skyped once when he got back.

When Van Pelt noticed him her worried face disappeared for a second and she smiled.

"Jane"

"Grace" he smiled back and hugged her. Her body language told him that she was very happy to see him. Same old Grace, always honest like an open book.

"It's good to see you" she told him. Lisbon wasn't the only one worried about Jane when he was gone but only Teresa had been in contact with him.

Grace and the rest of the CBI team were kept in the dark for two years.

"It's good to see you guys. I missed you " he said truthfully. It was his only family. They went through a lot together, these four people sacrificed for him way too much. He'll never forget them that.

"We missed you too, Jane" said Rigsby and gave him a quick hug.

Lisbon hugged them quickly too and asked :

"Where is Hightower?"

"I'm here Lisbon" they heard familiar voice. Maddeline just left Abbot's office. She looked good as always, she only had a bandage on her wrist and couple bruises.

Jane felt weirdly relieved when he saw her. His relationship with Hightower was very weird. His favorite CBI boss always called him Patrick. He really appreciated that, it showed her sympathy.

She hugged Lisbon and looked at Jane.

"Maddeline" he gave her a small smile

"Patrick , It's good to see you breathing and free" That's what she said. What she she really meant by that was : I'm glad you killed the psychopath who took away my life.

"It's good to see you breathing too, but I heard someone wanted to take it away from you"

"Yeah, we will talk about that later."

"Abbott is talking to my friend from CPD . He wants Minelli's case" said Rigsby.

"I heard that there's a note involved. That's why they know that someone wants revenge." Even Cho looked a little stressed.

"Why do you think someone is after us?" asked Lisbon.

They were all sitting around a table in conference room , like they used to in joined them after talking with CPD.

"They will send us all the files first thing in the morning"

"Thanks boss, we appreciate that" told him Lisbon.

"There's no problem. He was connected to all of you soo it's also my problem"

Abbott was amazing. Having 60 % of old CBI team meant trouble but it was worth it .If after shutting down CBI someone told him that they will end up as a team he wouldn't believe , not for a second but it happened.

"Do you recall any significant enemies?' he asked.

"You know Dennis, we were quite effective as a team" Jane's words made everyone smile. Like if 12 years of working together just drifted in front of their eyes.

"Before files will arrive whe can choose couple names. Everyone needs to choose one name that came to their head first" proposed Rigsby.

"Wow, I taught you guys something" Jane laughed, Lisbon only looked at him with an amusement

"But it's a good idea" he admitted quickly..

"Okay, soo I'll go with Volker. It's not his style I know, but he could hired someone" Lisbon came with the first was an obvious one.

"Okay this is going to sound crazy but what about Darcy ? " everyone looked at Rigsby with a small disbelief.

" Who's Darcy?" asked Abbot.

"She's a former FBI agent " told him Lisbon.

Thinking about Darcy made them uncomfortable. They didn't talk about RJ in two years.

"Her stalker made her crazy" Hightower was the one to start explaining.

It wasn't enough, Abbott still looked confused because he didn't know what it had to do with anything.

"Guys that's okay. I made piece with my past. We can talk about McAllister. Really, I'm fine" he assured them. They were looking at him quietly.

Somehow they were sure that he told them that truthfully but they also noticed that he didn't call him Red John.

McAllister was a meaningless garbage for Jane and he showed it by taking away from him the only thing that made him powerful after his death. Team felt kinda proud of Jane.

"Susan Darcy, she had a mental breakdown after McAllister's people killed Luther Wainwrithg . Before that he was kinda stalking her" Cho explained everything to Abbott and Kim who just joined them.

"Okay, now I see why you'd pick her Rigsby"

"Any other ideas?" Fisher was amazed by this view. She was looking at six people reunited to fight with their demons, once again. They seemed stronger together.

Seeing Cho worried and around his friends was fascinating for her, so he had a soul after all.

"Haibach " Jane suspected that either Grace or Lisbon will choose him, it was Grace.

"We made couple mistakes ..they were very unfortunate for him" That name made was weirdly special for Lisbon. She knew his was a bad person but she felt guilty for what happened to him.

It was very painful, thinking about how many people were dead of damaged somehow because of Red John. Van Pelt had a moment of weakness and he thought about Greg.

She was young and naive back then but even after all those years thinking about it made her feel terrible.

'I was very curious about your idea but you've been very quiet Jane" Hightower was first to said it out laud , but not the first one to notice. He looked very tired and like he was somewhere else.

"I don't know . Maybe someone from visualize?" It was very thin choice but to be honest old CBI team had a lot of enemies in California. It could be anyone .

"Stilles is dead" Said Cho with a doubt in his voice.

"But his cult is probably not" Jane taught Lisbon a lot but the most important lesson was - nothing is impossible.

They decided to call it a night and go home. That case was their priority right now, they had to be on the top of their game. Jane as usual was giving Lisbon a ride. He stopped the car in front of her house.

"Soo, maybe I should stay with you Teresa? We're not safe right now" He was sincerely worried about her. He almost lost her once he didn't want to risk again. She gave him a small smile.

"Don't worry about me Jane. I'm wearing a gun soo I'll be fine" she winged at him . Jane was suspecting that from her. She was "rocket pocket unbreakable " agent Lisbon after all.

"Okay, just be careful okay? Don't do your jogging thing at 5 am tomorrow please. Streets are very empty then, you know no witnesses . Just humor me and listen to me once "

She realized that he really was worried. She touched his palm gently and looked at him with appreciation .

"Goodnight Jane"

"Goodnight Teresa"

He watched her entering her house and he left. Back then he didn't know that for the first time in his life he's going to regret trusting her and leaving her alone.
