Chapter 10

At Luis' house...

"Ok Prentiss you and Rossi stay round the front I'm gonna go round the back. Were gonna do a soft entry, if there are any kids in there and we burst in he may kill them." Hotch briefed Rossi and Prentiss before running to the back.

"Ready hotch." Rossi said down his radio as hotch got to the back door.

"Ready, let's go!" hotch replied; swat used an entry tool to get into the house quietly. Hotch ran in checking the kitchen first, while Rossi and Prentiss checked round the living room area.

"Clear!" hotch heard Prentiss shout from the living area.

"Clear!" he shouted back, "I'm going upstairs!" hotch walked up the stairs slowly trying not to make a sound, he shuck his ear indicating to Prentiss and Rossi that he heard someone upstairs, they joined him all standing by one of the 4 doors. Rossi slowly opened his door first and ran in his gun up and ready. He scanned the room checking the wardrobe and other various places someone could hide.

"Clear." He said as he walked back out, his gun now down by his side, Prentiss went in next, her gun in hand same as Rossi.

"Hotch, I've got something!" Prentiss shouted, hotch and Rossi exchanged looks before following her in.

"This is definitely our guy!" Rossi said as they started at the mess in the room, "For someone who was so organised he surely didn't think of getting rid of evidence." Rossi commented picking up one of the school bags on the floor.

"Looks like they changed them, maybe into some sort of uniform?" Prentiss commented referring to the pile of clothes in the corner.

"Maybe part of the fantasy, or to identify them in public!" hotch added scanning the room, there were spare belts in the corner, costumes from the festival and alot of fast food wrappers.

"My guess is they brought the kids here before taking them to the secondary location, they might have even spent the first night here, 'treated' the kids to fast food meal before, looking at all these fast food records." Prentiss commented emphasising the work 'treated'.

"STOP! FBI!" Hotch shouted as a man ran past him and down the stairs, the three agents chased after him but there was no need the man was stopped by the SWAT outside. Hotch came running outside, he took out his handcuffs and arrested the man.

"He made me do it, I owed him!" the man shouted struggling as hotch led him to the SUV.

"That's what they all say." Rossi, who was following hotch replied

"Luis made me do it, I owed him money for drugs, and I couldn't give him the money so he said I had to help him with this or he'd kill me." The man said trying to defend what he'd done.

"Your not Luis Williams?" hotch asked as he pushed him in the back of the car.

"No I'm Benjamin Ray."

At the warehouse...

"Ready?" Morgan asked directing his question at JJ.

"Yep." She replied taking a deep breath.

"You sure we can do this without you." Morgan told her

"Morgan," she complained, signalling for Morgan to stop, "I can handle it, if he's in there he needs to see me, I've always told him mummy would save him and if I don't have the guts to see if he's in there then none of what over taught him means anything." She explained.

"Ok then." He replied nodding to Reid, he kicked the door in and they all burst in, Morgan went off to a room on the right while Reid and JJ continued forward.

"Clear!" Reid shouted as he cleared out a room on the right, leaving JJ to go forward.

"Get your ass out there!" Morgan shouted walking out from the left side room followed by two swat agents, with 4 men they had arrested, "Luis isn't here!"

"MUMMY!" Reid and Morgan heard a small child shout, Henry, the both ran to joining JJ who was standing completely still, frozen in shock.

"Please he's only a little boy, please don't hurt him, I'll take his place!" JJ pleaded as a man pulled Henry round the front of him and held his remote up above Henry's head...
