Disclaimer: I don't own NCIS, NUMB3RS or Criminal Minds.
Warnings and things to be aware of: There maybe spoilers, character deaths, torture scenes and ridiculous laughing nonsense. The timeline is a little messed up as well the point of view is constantly switching. I hope you enjoy. This is my first fan fiction so any useful advice is appreciated.
Previously:
Team Leader: Get out, now… BOMB!
Billi: Colby, David, Corey get out now.
Colby: Right behind you.
BOOM!
F.B.I.
Megan: Don, we may have a bigger problem.
Don: I don't think my heart can take anymore bad news.
Megan: Well, then maybe I shouldn't tell you.
Don: What! Quit playing games.
Megan: Colby and David as well as a few other people on the raid, were injured. It was mostly team three consisting of Colby, David, Billi-Jo and Corey.
Don: What are their conditions listed as?
Megan: David and Colby have minor burns and some shrapnel damage. Billi has just shrapnel damage. Corey was the closest to the blast, and is in critical condition.
Don stares blankly at her then faints. Ian throws his bran muffin at him but it has no effect. Hotch then throws his cup of cold coffee on him which is effective in waking him up.
Don: What the hell. I thought they were going as back-up.
Megan: They made entrance then the place went up in flames.
Ian: We need to start working on the riddle. However, what if the blast was set-up to mess up the team?
Hotch: That seems very unlikely. Her profile suggests that this isn't part of it. She likes control and games. This doesn't fit her.
At this moment the elevator door dings, opens, and Colby and David enter.
Megan: Are you guys okay to be here.
Don: You really should be at home resting.
Colby: Not when your brother is in trouble.
David: We're here for you.
Don: How is the rest of your team?
David: Billi went back to your apartment to rest but Corey didn't make it.
Don: Sorry. Do you think this is in any way related to the kidnappings?
Colby: I doubt it. This drug raid wasn't supposed to be large. They said there was only one person and lots drugs.
Don: What about looking for survivors?
David: The crew is in on it but I wouldn't expect much. The entire building collapsed, we were lucky to get out.
Colby: Have we heard anything more from the kidnapper?
Hotch: Yes, we have a; what am I riddle.
David: Let's have it.
Hotch: I am Canadian, I honk, and a piece of me was left with Charlie. What all was at the crime scene.
David: A blanket that's all.
Colby: There was a feather under the blanket. We just figured it was a part of the habitat but the answer could be a Canadian goose.
David: Good job bro.
Colby: How long do we have to answer?
Gibbs: There wasn't a timeline, they said anytime.
Computer screen flashes on to reveal Charlie sitting in the chair.
Voice: Welcome back. Wrong answer equals switch. No answer equals belt.
Colby: We believe the answer to be a Canadian goose.
Voice: That is correct. Bye for now.
Root Cellar
Charlie is returned to the cellar and Delaney is taken out.
Billi's House
Billi: I don't think they have any clue what's going yet. Have they talked at all about what's going on in the cellar?
Delaney: Nothing we just sit there with nothing to do or say. It is really quite boring, could you bring us some more food?
Billi: Yes, I could make that part of the game.
Whoosh… Billi throws a punch to give Delaney a black eye.
Delaney: What the hell was that for?
Billi: To make it look like I tortured you...
Delaney: Well I don't go quietly.
Delaney throws her own punch which Billi sidesteps and throws her own knocking her out.
Billi: Laurie, Casey, take her back to the cellar and tie her up.
F.B.I.
The computer turns on only a few minute after the last riddle.
Don (Quietly): Crap, not again already.
