A/N: Hey guys, I was in a funk and couldn't figure out what the heck to after I wrote half of this, but I finally got there and I hope you guys enjoy. I dove into some of the vulnerable parts of them just a smidge and let me know what you think :)
"Welcome to your last trial, you both have passed the first two with flying colors. As I can see, you've already picked up your weapons. You will have to kill the other in order to pass. The question is, who will win."
The voice went quiet and the lights turned on. The two woman had to trust the system. They had no contact with their team, so it was just them and their instincts. They looked at each other and knew what they had to do. Based on their knowledge, this was the only way out. With a gun in their right hand, they each walked up to the other and held their gun to the others head. They closed their eyes, took a deep breath, and pulled the trigger.
With no reaction and just hearing the guns click, realizing it was empty, they both gave a huge sigh of relief. They couldn't believe that they were right to do what they did so they opened their eyes and smiled at the other giving each other a huge hug. JJ rolled her eyes once they broke a part, "I can't believe I could've lost you."
Emily gave her a quick kiss, "I guess it's a good thing we are smart enough to know the difference between a loaded and unloaded gun."
"Very true. Now what?" JJ asked as she looked around. From the door, Alexa and Ally came out clapping. JJ and Emily looked at each other and then at them. Alexa walked up to the blonde with a smile this time, "Well done blondie, I guess you really do love her." JJ just glared and then brushed it off. Alexa then walked to Emily, "Autumn, you really are beautiful and I underestimated your love for her." She walked back to her sister and then Ally spoke, "Ignore her ladies, she just feels lonely and thinks she can be a jerk."
JJ laughed, "A bitch is more like it."
Emily added under her breath, "A home wrecker bitch."
Alexa was about to punch them until Ally held her back, "You can't, they are one of us now. You can't break the code."
The frustrated twin looked JJ in the eyes from where she was, "I hope one of you screw up and get kicked out so I can kill you."
"Not unless you mess up first and I get to kill you." JJ added with a smile.
Emily looked at Ally, "Did you say one of us?"
Ally redirected the conversation and answered the brunettes question, "Yes, you both have passed all that is needed. This last test was to measure the lengths you would go for each other and you showed that you couldn't live with out the other which is exactly what we are looking for. I will escort you both back to the parlor and give you your tattoos. Then we will contact you."
Before they knew it they were back in the parlor area and they were getting their invisible tattoos. It was located on the back of their necks in cursive. Once Ally finished JJ's, they went to the counter, "As I said earlier, we will contact you. With all work aside, I'm really happy you guys passed and I cannot wait to work with you. Also, I'm sorry."
"For what?" Emily asked as Ally pulled out some kind of spray can and sprayed their faces. They fell to the ground and were out.
Emily's eyes slowly opened to see sunlight through the curtains. She put a hand to her head to cover the light, "What the hell did they spray us with? My head feels like it got ran over by a car."
She turned over to face the blonde and removed her hand, but the blonde wasn't there. Emily slowly got out of bed because whatever they were sprayed with did not sit well with her. She opened the door and searched all the rooms upstairs, still no JJ. She went down the steps to the bottom floor and she found the blonde sitting in the kitchen starring at the marble counter top of the island with a cup of coffee next to her. Emily rubbed her eyes a bit and slowly walked towards her, "Hey, you okay?"
The blonde didn't answer and just sat there. The brunette sat on a stool next to her, "Babe, its's me, talk to me."
JJ gave a small sarcastic chuckle and then looked up at the brunette with sad eyes, "How did you do it? How did you cut your morals off when you did that undercover mission with Doyle?" Her stare was intense as she was waiting for an answer.
Emily turned away and was now the one looking at the countertops, "I had to shut myself off for the sake of others. It was awful and I almost forgot who I was, but I had to do it for the better of others. I think that's honestly how I did it."
JJ took a deep breath and grabbed her coffee cup to take a drink before she spoke, "That's what I thought, but I'm afraid I'll loose myself because I'm not strong enough. In that first trial Emily, I had to shoot children. Granted they were holograms, but still…"
The sentence trailed off and Emily turned back to the blonde, "JJ, I won't let you loose yourself. You are strong enough, but together we're even stronger."
Feeling some relief, JJ's eyes got softer and she kissed Emily on the cheek before heading to the coffee pot. She pulled a mug from the cabinet above and poured some coffee into it. She walked back over to the brunette and handed her the cup. Emily was still worried about her friend so she had to ask, "Are you sure you're good?"
She grabbed her own coffee mug and smiled at Emily because it amazed her how much she actually cared about her, then again she cared deeply for the brunette as well. She nodded her head once, "For now I am."
Quickly changing the subject, JJ gave a questioned look, "I want to know what they sprayed us with and if they got into the house. We also need to catch up with Garcia to see what happened and how we lost contact with them in there."
Emily just rolled with it and didn't want to push, "I agree, let's go."
They both ran upstairs to the office. Each respectively sat at their own desk and started a video call. Except, one thing Spencer forgot to tell them was that their office also evolved into something a little more of what they needed. As they both called the tech goddess at the same time, a TV flipped around from the other side of one of the walls and so did a keyboard and basically a different version of their best friend's office. They both were shocked and stood up next to each other facing it in awe.
The giddy blonde appeared on the screen, "How are my two favorite love birds doing because we have a lot to catch up on. How did you guy's sleep? Good thing they didn't spray you with anything too toxic."
Emily was still oddly starring at the screen before she went off, "Woah, woah, woah. Garcia, why didn't anyone tell us our office turned into a headquarters?"
The peppy blonde was a little confused herself for a few seconds until she got her irritated face, "Boy genius must've forgotten to show you, what I might call, the best part." She whispered under her breath, "I'm going to kill him."
JJ and Emily just looked at each other and laughed a little before getting down to business. JJ talked first, "How did we loose contact? I thought-"
Garcia quickly cut her off, "They're apparently more prepared than we thought and have some kind of updated frequency interference thing that blocks the thing and so we lost contact. Luckily you guys already knew about the two trials."
"Yeah, but no one told us about the third one where we had to aim an unloaded at each other at the same time and pull the trigger to pass." Emily stated as she looked harshly at the screen. JJ went out of sight for a second while Garcia was trying to figure out what the brunette meant as she grabbed some Cheetos from her drawer and returned to the screen. She opened the bag and started munching. Both of her friends looked at her, "What? I was hungry and these were the closest thing, don't judge me."
Garcia and Emily left it be and continued their conversation, "Emily, there was nothing in any file that mentioned a third trial involving anything having to do with shooting each other."
JJ had some Cheetos in her mouth and intervened, "Well, we went through it and luckily as agents we know the difference between a loaded gun, a gun with a bullet in the chamber, and an unloaded gun."
Garcia's voice got serious, "I'm just happy you guys are alive. I hate this, we all do. Let's just hope you get your orders soon so we're one step closer to you guys coming home." She took a deep breath before continuing, "and that you don't run into anything that unknown again."
"Let's hope." Emily agreed with Garcia and was about to speak until she heard the doorbell ring. She looked at JJ, "Really? Why would I order anything?" then she looked at Garcia, "Not us?" Emily headed downstairs and it was now just JJ and Garcia. The perkier blonde knew something was going on so she asked, "What's going on in that head of yours buttercup?"
JJ got defensive fast, "Nothing is wrong, I'm all good, everything is fine Pen." She looked away from the screen and Garcia was going to get it out of her, "Spill." She firmly demanded. "Fine, I may have feelings for…uh…Emily."
"I KNEW IT!" Penelope exclaimed as suddenly the power cut out and they lost connection. JJ ran downstairs to find Emily holding a white envelope in her hand. JJ walked over, "What is it? What does it say?" the brunette looked up, "It says nothing, it just has this." She turned the envelope to show JJ, it was the symbol for the L.W.K. The blonde grabbed it and opened it. This time Emily was asking the questions, "JJ, who is it?" she looked at the paper inside with a very confused look and tried to pronounce the name, but in the end failed. Emily yanked it from her and looked, "Dammit, I know this one."
JJ just looked at her, "Really Em? The first words you have to say about our first hit is that you know them? Who is it?"
Emily laughed, "Oddly enough it's my uncle, well the closest thing I had to an uncle…this should be fun. I'll let Garcia know so we can let him know that we're going to fake assassin him and put him in witness protection."
JJ went in the kitchen and grabbed a glass of water and Emily followed, "Emily, why do I feel like you're going to know most of these people or at least know of them." JJ took a sip before Emily took her glass and took one herself before answering, "it's not my fault. Maybe it'll make the news easier?"
Looking at the brunette like she was an idiot, she laughed not long before Emily joined in because they both knew that was a lie. JJ looked at Emily with a smile. Emily didn't understand why and she was curious, "What?" JJ's smile grew, "Nothing Em, you're just really beautiful and I'm glad we're in this together."
Emily smiled, "Me too J, me too."
