Chapter 4
Sorry but work is busy again so updates will be slow…. Translation is from Google translate…
Emily had managed to find them both some shelter for the night, her ankle was still throbbing but she could cope with the pain, she had stayed awake watching over JJ who was sleeping peacefully in her arms, with each breathe she took gave Emily more comfort she was still here but the memory of JJ laying there not breathing was going to haunt her for a long time. For now, though she would just take comfort in the fact they were okay.
SSA Peters had given up trying to get through to both Agents as he dialled Hotch's cell phone, he knew it was early but still he was unable to get hold of either one of them. He did feel slightly guilty at the thought of waking someone up at four in the morning, but he himself had yet to go to sleep as he listened to the phone ring out.
"Hotchner" Hotch could hear the soft sigh on the other end of the phone "Hotch, It's Peters" the second Peters had said his name Hotch had started to get up as he spoke "Peters? What's wrong?" he asked as he threw his shirt on.
"I know its late but Emily and JJ still haven't arrived have you heard off them?" the cold chill ran through Hotch's body as he spoke "Not since they left the BAU fourteen hours ago" Peters swallowed deeply before he spoke again. "I haven't been able to reach either of them, we had a bad storm yesterday and they could have been diverted to another landing strip"
"Peters I will ring you once I get into the office," Hotch said as he finished getting dressed. Hotch had rung the rest of the team as he made his way in, Garcia met him in the hallway as he exits the lift. "Hotch," the worry in the one word made Hotch's face soften "Garcia, can you pull the flight up and see if you can get hold of the pilot" he asked softly as Garcia nodded "What if" Hotch shook his head not giving her a chance to finish. "Let's not jump to anything until we have proof, you know what Emily can be like with her phone battery is probably dead and JJ"
Garcia nodded as she walked away, "Garcia come up to the conference room as soon as you can" Garcia nodded as she spoke "I will do once I have tried to get hold of them." The last part was more a prayer to her-self that she would be able to get hold of them.
JJ moaned slightly as she moved in Emily arms slightly, Emily couldn't help the small smile that slipped past her lips as she ran her fingers through JJ's hair, JJ stirred more as she felt someone playing with her hair as she slowly opened her eyes, "¡gracias a dios!" Emily whispered as she looked in to now clear blue eyes.
"How you feeling?" Emily asked as JJ continued to just look at her "Like someone ran a train through my head" JJ said, her voice was softer than normal, Emily nodded "Emily what happened and where are we?" JJ asked as she wrapped the jacket around her more.
Emily smiled softly more to reassure JJ as she spoke "We hit some turbulence and the plane went down" JJ's eyes went slightly wide, "How did we end up" JJ looked around and noticed they were in a type of cave, "here?" Emily smiled as she let out a slight chuckle.
"We had to get off the plane" Emily said simply, Emily didn't want to panic or upset JJ, she already was aware that JJ was scared of the woods Emily could only think what could happen if she told JJ and neither of them had a great ending.
Emily ankle was still throbbing the pain shooting up and down her calf even as she was sat still she dreaded placing pressure on it, but she knew she was going to have to because they needed to get moving. "So JJ you think you can cope with out your normal five cups of coffee for one morning?" Emily joked. "I can try Emily" JJ replied with a smile.
Garcia made her way into the conference room a few hours later as Hotch glanced at her, the rest of the team were gathered around the table as she shook her head slightly. Garcia had managed to track the planes movements until one point where it just dropped off the radar. "They are trying to locate the black box," Garcia said with a sad smile.
Hotch turned to the map as he spoke "We know from the co-ordinates that Garcia sent us that the plane was last seen in this area," Hotch said as he pointed to the national forest area where the plane seemed to have vanished.
"JJ is going to hate this," Morgan muttered, as Rossi looked at him confused "JJ is scared of the woods" Garcia said giving a weak smile.
"Garcia any luck with their cell phones?" Hotch asked, "No, nothing they must have been broken or their batteries died, they seemed to have last bounced off these cell towers and then nothing" Garcia sighed, "They seemed to have dropped off around the time they hit turbulence" Garcia finally sat down next to Morgan. "I have placed a trace on both cell phones in case they get turned back on" Hotch gave a soft smile.
"The forest rangers have already started on running grid searches and we will be joining them, wheels up in twenty," Hotch said softly as the team started to get up all aside from Garcia.
Morgan hanged back as he rested his hand on her shoulder "We will find them Garcia" he gave a reassuring smile as Garcia shook her head slightly "What if Emily tries to find her way out instead of staying near the plane or what if" Morgan placed his finger on her lips to hush her as he spoke. "Emily will try and locate a trail, it is what we have been trained to do and you know full well Emily will look after JJ" Garcia nodded though he could see the tears forming in her eyes.
"As soon as we get there I will call you, I promise you we will find them" Garcia could only nod, Morgan and Emily were partners and extremely close and even Garcia knew Morgan wouldn't stop until he had found them both "Bring my girls home" Garcia said as Morgan placed his lips on her forehead "I will babygirl"
"JJ do you think you can move?" Emily asked as she shifted her weight slightly. JJ frowned as she looked around her hand automatically gripping Emily's top "You want us to walk in there? We could get lost?" Emily could not help the slight chuckle that came out as she spoke "I think we are already lost JJ, but we need to see if we can find a trail or a footpath" Emily said softly.
Emily could feel J shudder against her as she spoke softly into her ear "You know I won't let anything happen to you JJ" JJ nodded against her, she knew Emily wouldn't let anything happen to her but she still feared the woods and the animals that wondered around in there.
"¡gracias a dios!" Thank god**
