All mistakes are my own
Rossi looked up to see Garcia being led down the stairs by the unsub, her face was tear-stained and the top of her cheek had clearly started to bruise. She was crying as she got shoved back into her cell and out of his sight.
"What did you do to her?" Morgan demanded angrily.
"Not too much, just a good smack to shut her up," the unsub said from behind his mask. "She got rather disobedient. You all have a choice of who will look after Dr Reid tonight. Miss Garcia did make a very good point on the way back that if I wanted to play with Spencer for longer, I'd need to treat his wounds. I don't have the time or patience to look after that snivelling piece of crap so one of you will do it."
"I'll do it," Morgan immediately offered. "I'll take care of him."
"How valiant of you, Derek," the unsub mocked. He made his way back up the stairs and left them alone again.
"Garcia, what did he do to you?" JJ asked.
"Just hit me," Garcia hiccupped as she wiped tears from her cheeks. "He's hurt Reid more."
A loud groan filled the room as the unsub dragged Reid back into the room and over to Morgan's cell, he unlocked it and threw Reid to the concrete floor. He chuckled at the grimace of pain that came to the youngest member's face. The unsub tossed a bag in and then closed the cell back up. "You'll get food when I think it fit. Make sure that thing doesn't die and I may even give you a treat, Derek."
"When I get out of this cell, I'm going to kill you," Morgan growled.
"You'll have to step over Spencer's cold corpse to do that. Now get to work."
Morgan clenched his fists as the unsub walked away from him and out of the room. Rushing to Reid, he turned him over and felt sick as he saw the long and cauterised cuts across his shoulder and down his chest. "Oh, god, why is he doing this to you?"
Reid tried to push him away, he didn't think the kid even knew it was him trying to help him. He grabbed Reid's wrists and stopped his struggles. "Kid, it's only Morgan. You're hurt and I just want to help you."
As he let go of Reid's wrists, his hand came away slick with blood. Grabbing the bag, he ripped it open to find some medical supplies, a bottle of water, a plastic bottle of a powerful antiseptic and a blanket. He knew that Reid was going to scream when he put the antiseptic on all his wounds. Morgan looked at his friend and knew he was in pain.
"Morgan, what's his condition?" Hotch asked.
"Not good, his wrist is still bleeding and he has two long cuts, one across his shoulder and one down his chest, they've been cauterised crudely. He's struggling, Hotch."
"He screamed," Garcia cried. "He said he wasn't going to scream for him but he couldn't help it when that man heated the knife."
Morgan heard the pain and fear in Garcia's voice, he just wanted to run over to her and hold her in his arms, she was all alone in the cell. He knew she would struggle with not being able to have comfort from anyone. He listened as JJ spoke soft soothing words to Garcia. He ripped Reid's shirt and grabbed the antiseptic. He straddled Reid to keep him still. He couldn't have Reid moving about and injuring himself further while he cleaned the wounds. "Kid, I don't know if you can register what I'm saying but this is going to hurt. I have to do it to keep them from getting infected."
He took a deep breath and began to pour the powerful antiseptic on the deep, burned cuts.
He flinched as a horrible scream burst through Reid's lips, the screaming continued as he finished pouring on the first cut and moved to the second.
"Make him stop," Garcia cried, he glanced to her cell and found her holding her hands over her ears, crying with her knees to her chest.
He poured the antiseptic to the second deep wound and Reid screamed again. Morgan heard Garcia crying and couldn't bear it. He put his hand over Reid's mouth and continued, Reid still screamed but they were now muffled. He finished and removed his hand, Reid was crying and his entire body was shaking. He grabbed a wipe and cleaned around the wound as best he could. He took two dressings from the bag and covered up the two knife wounds. Morgan grabbed the water bottle next and put it to Reid's lips, he used one arm to lift him into a sitting position and lifted the water bottle up. "Reid, drink some water."
Reid gulped down some water slowly before coughing and spluttering some of the water. Morgan laid him out on the floor again and moved down to his wrists, he unwrapped the bloody and dripping bandage to find a deep cut beneath. "This needs stitches," he shook his head.
He grabbed the bag and found a bag with a needle and some thread inside it. He took the antiseptic and a cotton wool bud, he soaked the bud and cleaned the deep cut, Reid bucked but only let out a few small whimpers. He sterilised everything as much as he could and then began to sew the cut closed.
"Morgan, are you okay?" Rossi questioned.
"I'm fine, just never thought I'd be stitching up my best friend. I think he's in and out, he's lost a lot of blood from this cut, the bandage is completely soaked. I'm sorry about the screaming, Garcia."
"He made Reid scream and he wants to make him scream again. I just hate hearing him in so much pain, I'm sorry for not being calm."
"Garcia, you're calm now and I promise we'll get you out of here."
"Get Reid out first," Garcia shook her head. "He wants our baby boy."
Morgan finished sewing the cut and sterilised it again, he put a dressing over it and then wrapped a bandage around it. He moved to the cut on Reid's cheek but that had already stopped bleeding and he could only clean it. He treated all his other cuts and bruises too. He moved all the supplies to the corner and put all the soiled bandages in an empty bag. Morgan brought the blanket with him over to Reid, he sat against the wall near the cell bars and pulled Reid to him, he leaned him against his chest in a sitting positions and then put the blanket over him.
"He looks like hell," Rossi remarked as he looked over to them.
"He's asleep so let's try keep him this way for a while," Morgan sighed as he held a protective arm around his friend. "He needs to rest."
He opened the door and walked in to find the monitors all on, an aroma of english tea filling the room and his things on the table. He took off his mask and brushed a hand through his hair.
"Masks hide so many things," the voice said from the corner, he looked up and nodded.
"I know they do."
"He hides behind a mask of knowledge and fake innocence, he's a murderer inside and he's responsible for my pain. I want him to suffer in every way possible, I want that innocence ripped away from him. Do you understand? I didn't hire you for your looks."
"Anything you ask will get done."
"I guess we understand each other," she smiled as she picked up her wine glass and looked at Spencer, her eyes taking in every injury and finding joy.
