About two years after Spencer's first case at the BAU

When Morgan asked Spencer if he wanted to go out with him and the rest of the team for dinner, he reluctantly declined. He wanted to so badly but he refused to get hurt again like he was so many times before. Spencer rarely went anywhere with them, except on cases of course. He really grown fond of the team, although he missed Elle and Gideon. But In his mind, humans only like you for so long. He saw the looks of disappointment from his teammate's faces as they left for dinner together God how he wanted to hit something or just relive some stress. There was only one way to do so.

Later that night Spencer drove out to the forest, far from town and were anyone else would see or hear him. He stopped his car at a cliff and got out. He took a deep breath and slowly his body transformed, his claws grew and looked like long serrated daggers, his eyes became were yellow and red like a dragon's, and his wings were huge, almost the length of his body and were brown like his hair.

Spencer left off the cliff and his wings extended outwards. He glided thought the air gracefully as he soared through the night sky. He felt so at peace and calm, it was a times like this that he didn't really have to hide who he was. He was a dragon through and through.

However, he noticed that it was getting late and he had to drive back. So he flew back to his car and landed. He drove away to go home and rest before work the next day. He failed to notice the yellow eyes watching him from a distance.

Spencer got up the next day at work to get a cup of coffee, he was tired from staying up late last night to fly, but it was worth it to help his stressed mind. He was asked by Prentiss earlier if he wanted to catch a movie with her and Garcia, he declined of course. He kept noticing all day the looks from his team. It hurt but he knew it was for the best. After all what if they found out, they would never talk to him again. They would call him a freak….

When he went back to his desk, Hotch was there waiting for him. "Reid, can I talk to you for a minute in my office." Spencer nodded and they went into the office. Hotch shut the door and Spencer sat down. "Reid I have noticed for some time now, that you rarely talk or talk with the team about anything unless it deals with work. I would really like you to become more involved since it is important for a team to be able to trust and know each other to work together in the field."

Spencer sighed, "Hotch I respect this team and you as my boss, but I really just want to stay professional here, I'm not here to socialize or anything." Hotch gave him a dark stare but nodded. Spencer left the room and got back to work. It wasn't long until the rest of the team knew what he told Hotch and stared to give Reid dirty looks, but Reid ignored them. He dealt with this before and knew it was better for them, not to get close.

One night, the team was going to get some dinner, Spencer was not invited so he was going to go home. Out in the parking lot, Spencer got into his car while he saw his teammates walk to a restaurant a short walk away. But Garcia stopped and rushed over to Spencer before he got in. "Reid…look you may not like us but we like you, just come with us…please." Spencer eyes watered, "I just can't…I want to but it would only hurt you guys if I get to close." She stared at him, confused. "What do you mean?"

Suddenly a large white dragon appeared out of nowhere; it landed and growled at Spencer. "So you're the one who killed my father huh, you're a bit small." He chuckled and raised his claw to attack him. Garcia screamed and shut her eyes, but Spencer picked her up and managed to move her out of the way. He ran to his teammates, "Get out of here NOW" he shouted. He looked back and saw the dragon was going to charge at him. Spencer quickly transformed and flew up his claws ready to strike. The team was in completely awestruck. Spencer clawed at one of the dragon's eyes and managed to slice its shoulder with his razor sharp teeth. The dragon roared in pain as Spencer continued to claw at his shoulders, neck and back. Eventually the onslaught was too much and the dragon flew away bleeding and aching from every pore. Spencer roared in triumph and looked back to see his team stare at him with fear in their eyes. Spencer knew that he couldn't stay at Quantico any longer and flew away. The team was so in shock that it was when Spencer was flying away, that they called for Spencer to come back. But he couldn't hear through the howling wind in his ears.
