Sorry for not upating for a while but I've been feeling a little down. I feel like noyone is reading because I haven't been getting any reviews lately. But once again thanks to whoever is reading the story. Well today is the day Scarlett goes to the BAU. I will be using the episode "Empty planet" to my advantage. We won't be hearing from some characters today.
Chapter 10
I woke up early to the sound of my alarm blaring random noises. I got up, woke up Melody, got dressed, and started getting my GoBag ready. I wanted to be the first one there really bad.
"Melody, get up!"
"Fine! But to tell you I was dreaming about that cutey that walked in."
"Yes that guy, whatever he is. Well maybe he is in the BAU and you get to see him forever now."
It felt like it was just yesterday when Melody mentioned the cute guy walking inside the class just to get Gideon out of class.
"Okay, now clothes go inside a GoBag if I am right"
"Can I pack my GoBag with you?" Melody asked, she was already wearing a zebra striped shirt with some black pants
"Sure" I said, by now I was wearing a pure white shirt with some black pants and a sweater over it, with a cute purple scarf that I got a long time ago.
"Okay, shirt, pants, notebook, other stuff" said Melody, just shoving things inside
"Yay, now we eat breakfast" I said
For breakfast I made a pancake for both of us and we each had some orange juice and we set off. We drove and the drive seemed to take forever. Finally we made it. It was cold outside but luckily we both had jackets on.
I walked inside the class to see Gideon with a GoBag, and nobody else inside the classroom.
"Morning"
"Good Morning Scarlett" said Gideon, "I had a feeling you guys would be the first in the class"
"Yeah, I woke up Melody"
"Well when everybody comes then we will go"
It seemed like nobody else wanted to go to the BAU with us. The time ticked on and on and on and on until finally the rest of them came in.
"Okay, to the car."
"Finally"
It seemed I was too excited because I was the first to leave the class and almost get run over by a car getting out of the parking lot.
"Let's go" said Matt
"Come On, Come On" said Sara
"Shotgun!" I called
After a grueling 30 minutes in the car we got there. I got out and decided to calm down. There was a fine pine scent in the air, the building looked really professional, and there were tons of people in suits going inside.
"Okay, wear these pins. They will set you apart from everybody else" said Gideon, passing out laminated FBI ID cards that said "Student" and had our names.
Finally, we went up the elevator and there were the glass doors. We walked through and I got the handle and pulled it open, I felt the coldness of the doorknob and saw my fingerprints on the glass. I instantly thought"I LOVE THIS PLACE!"
I saw a bunch of people sitting in cubicles and we walked all the way to the unit chief's office.
"Hi, I'm Aaron Hotchner but you guys can call me Hotch. We are happy to have young profilers here. Gideon who is my pupil?" asked Hotch
I was just standing there, sucking all the excitement in. I was a statue.
"He is right here. Umm Jacob step forward."
"Hi, I'm Jacob. Its a pleasure to be meeting you umm Hotch?"
"Yes, well i'll see you guys later, you can put your GoBags in the conference room."
"Ok, follow me guys"
We walked to the conference room and put our stuff down, then we went to the another room to meet somebody else.
"This is our technical analyst, Penelope Garcia." said Gideon
"Hi uhh sir, who is my pupil. Please. You guys can call me Garcia or Penelope" she asked
"This girl here, Mina step forward."
"Hi, umm nice to meet you. I love computers as much as the next person."
Then we set off and we went to the cubicles, there were three more people for all of us to match up with.
"This is Derek Morgan, he is our door breaking specialist and a profiler"
"Hi Gideon, these must be the students you were talking about, I'd like to see who is the same as Reid...my pupil? "
"Yeah, Matt step forward."
"Hi, umm yeah hi"
"Not much of a talker huh, you guys can call me Morgan"
Then two more people came up to us.
Then we saw the last person. I could tell he was my mentor. There was a look of anxiousness in everyone's face
"Okay and last but not least is the youngest out of all of them, Dr. Spencer Reid."
I listened for that then I felt bumping on my arm, it was Melody.
"What!" I whispered
"It's cutey patootie!" she said looking all romancy.
"Okay he's my mentor so knock it off and find another guy." I said, and looked back just in time to catch what Spencer was saying.
"Hi, umm, hi. Umm Gideon can you tell me who I will be mentoring" said Reid
I instantly felt like this was my moment to shine.
"Okay umm Scarlett, forward please."
I stepped forward and waved at Spencer. He waved back. The other profilers face had a look of shock like, how does she compare?
"Hi, i'm uhh Scarlett. I'm your pupil." I said
"Yeah, uhh hi. Uhh, hi"
"Melody, your going to have to be my pupil because there is noyone else for you, but when we find someone your like then you'll be their pupil" said Gideon
"Okay, Gideon" Melody said
Then, somebody walked inside and announced that they had a case. She looked just like Sara, looks like that was the communications liason.
We went inside the conference room, and Gideon told us to sit with our mentors so we got used to them. Then Garcia walked inside.
"Uhh Morgan I got information of that S...uhh nevermind. Can I see you outside real quick"
"Excuse me" he said, then walked outside "What?"
"Thats Scarlett, she's Reid's pupil?"
"Yes, I know. I think they don't remember each other at all."
"Well shouldn't we tell him?"
"Not now, later on like next week"
"KK"
Then they walked back inside. Gideon made us sit down next to our mentors and I was just full of excitement. And it was partly weird because I was the only girl with a boy mentor. They told us if we thought anything then to say it, because it could help solve the case quicker.
We listened to the tape and then Gideon introduced Sara to the communications liason,or JJ as she told us to call her.
"I'm sorry did you say a bomb sir?" said the 911 operator
"Yes, on a bus, in the city where it all began...get my message out"
"Message? Uhh what message"
"That this is the only the beginning, until it all brought back under control..people will die"
Then it cut off.
"In the last 20 minutes virtually identical threats have been made to most of the coast to coast networks in the country." said JJ "Its the same information just slightly different words"
"so its not a recorded message or script just a measure of confidence" said Morgan, flipping his pen while Matt was just sitting taking notes
"He could've easily just called one network this guy obviously wants attention" said me and Reid at the same time.
Everyone looked at us weirdly. Then we continued.
"Thats typical behavior for a personal cause bomber" said Gideon, holding a cup of coffee "One bomb has a fine line package. Its like a bunch of phone calls which magnify it a million times"
"We have the additional recorded calls being gathered for assesment" said JJ
"Networks say the calls came from a restricted number 2 have given limited permission to trap and trace the lines if we need to." said Garcia, while Mina was sitting all patiently
"You got a news organization to agree to a trap and trace?" said Hotch, while Jacob was looking lost this whole time.
"Who can say no to me?"
"This is not like the arcadia, they don't call unless they bomb something" said Morgan
"At homeland's security request we are going to keep this quiet until we've assessed the situation" said JJ
"This doesnt look like a hoax" said Hotch "He's calm, reside and it looks like he's made his decision to do it"
"Plus he said this is only the beginning, the beginning of what, and he also said until it is brought back under control. What's it, he has to call back and if this threat is'nt followed by an event noyone will take him seriously" again Reid and I said it simultaneously
"So we're gonna tell the media to go with the story?" asked Garcia
"Absolutely not" said Hotch
"Threats like this with an unspecified location would just cause tremendous panic" JJ said, leaning over the table
"Then what are we going to do?" asked Garcia
"Unfortunately all we can do is wait" Said Gideon
All of us came out of the cars and started walking toward the crime scene.
"So seattle is where it all began" Spencer and I said
"We just need to find out what "it" is and off the top of my head I can think of grunge music and overpriced coffee"said Morgan
"That doesn't seem significant enough for terrorism"both me and Spencer said
"For a personal cause bomber it only neds to be a significance to him" said Gideon.
Melody, Jacob, Matt, and Sara came out of the car and quickly went to their mentors. I was just there next to mine looking at the crime scene filled with excitement.
"Agent Nick Kasey, seattle field office" said the agent, walking toward Hotch to shake hands
"Agent Hotchner" he said, then turned to introduce everyone else "This is Spencer Reid, SSA Morgan, Agent Jareau, and SSA Gideon. We also have some young profilers with us...Have you identified the device"
"Its like a small pipe bomb attached to an umbrella" he said, eyes squinting because of the sun
"I'd like to take a look at the bomb fragments as soon as I can, I have bomb squad experience." said Morgan, while Matt just looked up and the look on his face turned to excitement.
"How many people were on the bus when the explosion went off?" asked Reid, this time I didn't say it at the same time as him. I was to busy looking around in aww.
"25 including the driver, explosion killed two...the driver and a young male. Injured 7" Agent Nick Kasey said, as we walked with him to the bus
"Pipe bomb on a crowded city bus and only two people were killed."
"Had to admit it had a really small charge...the two dead were close to the bomb at the time of detonation."he said, then took out a little notebook "Sylvia Kohen, a passenger, found the umbrella at her seat. Said a young man volunteered to take it to the driver for her, pretty broken up about it"
"Have you questioned and debriefed the rest of the passengers" asked Hotch
"I have their information if you want to talk to them" he said.
Hotch looked at the bus then asked "Did you get their positions"
"I'm sorry what" Nick kasey replied
"Where they were on the bus"
"No"
"JJ maybe you can recontact the passengers and map their locations"
"Yeah you got it" said JJ
"Nobody saw who left the umbrella" said Gideon, following Nick Kasey to around the other side of the bus
"No, but you know from a spot it looks like and old detonator from the corner over there" he said
