Chapter 4: Explanations

"I came down here as fast I could," said Martin, a Detective in his early 40's, he has been assisting the team with the case

"Is there anything about Austin that you forget to tell us?" asked Hotch calmly

"I thought… I thought it was not important," said Martin

"Not important? ...Who are you to make that decision?" said Morgan

"Morgan…"said Hotch,

"Because of your stupid decision, my friend is in there….. stuck with some psycho!"

"MORGAN!" Hotch shouted

"What?" said Morgan

"I need you to walk out and get your head clear!" Hotch demanded

"Fine!" said Morgan and he walked out of the room

Not important. How could he think it is not important? Morgan was bothered about everything, the situation, mainly about himself, his inability to help his best friend, his little brother. Morgan was about to punch the wall when he felt the soft touch in his shoulders, he turned around and found JJ

"Are you okay?" asked JJ

"Yes…I mean no. I am just…." Said Morgan

"Worried," JJ finished the sentence. "I know….but Morgan; it is not helping Reid,"

"I know…..Reid…have you realized…he is the exact definition of trouble magnet," said Morgan

"Well, that's our Reid. C'mon, let's get in there, do whatever it takes and get him out of there," JJ patted Morgan's shoulder and began to walk back inside when Morgan called her

"JJ…Thanks," said Morgan

"Anytime, Morgan…anytime" said JJ

JJ and Morgan could hear Detective Martin's voice. "He approached me after the 14th murder, influencing me that all these murders are committed by the same guy that killed his girlfriend. However, he didn't include all the murders happened before his girlfriend. I asked him, how did he know that and he told me he just know it. I told him that is it not enough, I need evidence, plus, some of the murders are in other 2 cities. I just told him…I need some time,"

"So, get it done means catch the guy who killed his girlfriend?" asked Rossi

"Yes," said Hotch

"I talked to the cops, none of them really recognized him, he dressed in jacket with a cap, he told one of the cops that he wants to meet us, he said got some information about the murders," said Prentiss

"How about Reid?" asked Morgan

"According to Officer Danny, he was actually walking to the washroom…..He almost passed out when Austin caught him," Prentiss added

"Almost passed out?" asked JJ with a worried voice

"I know everyone is worried about Reid. To be honest, I am worried too but we need to remain professional, so that we could get him out as soon as possible," said Hotch

Everyone nodded in agreement

"Ok, let's get back to work," said Hotch

In the mean time, Reid seriously has no idea how to respond to the situation. First, his head is killing him, his body is craving for rest but then, there is something else….his right hand quickly moved towards his stomach

"Are you okay?" asked Austin

"No…..I think…. I'm gonna throw up!" Just when Reid bends down, the dustbin was placed under his mouth. After few minutes of fight back, Reid pushed the dustbin, and mumbled thanks.

"I am sorry…I really didn't mean to….Are you okay?" asked Austin again

Now, this is one of the unutterable situations for Reid. He even has no idea on what he should feel, should he freak out that he was kidnapped in police station itself or should he be surprised that his kidnapper seems caring?
