Chapter 10

''Oh my god! What is happening there?!'' Garcia asked crying.

''I don't know baby girl and I don't think I want to know…'' Derek said.

They heard the door open and saw a limp body be thrown in.

''Oh my god! He killed her!'' Garcia screamed.

''Wait!'' Derek said. He went over to the body, seeing it was JJ he gulped, and felt in her neck.

''It's JJ.'' Garcia gasped. ''She's alive.'' They all signed in relief.

''What did he do to her?'' Emily said.

''Don't know, but she'll tell us when she wants.'' Rossi said.

''Ugh… Guys?'' JJ asked.

''JJ! Oh my god, I am so happy that you're awake!'' Garcia said while she ran over to JJ.

''Is she dead?'' JJ asked.

''What? Who honey?'' Emily asked.

''The woman, is she dead?''

''Uhm, we don't really know who you're talking about?'' Reid said unsure.

''Oh, then I think she's dead.'' JJ said while she began to cry.

''Hey, shh, it's okay Bella. It's okay.'' Rossi said.

''JJ, who were you just talking about? What happened outside?'' Hotch asked carefully.

''He shot her…'' JJ said.

''Who shot who?'' Reid said.

''The UnSub, he shot the woman. In front of me…'' JJ said. ''Why didn't I help her? I am a terrible person.'' She cried.

''No, no you're not Jayje, you're strong and amazing!'' Emily said.

''Her family is going to live without her, without a mother, without a wife, without a sister, without a daughter, without an aunt, without a friend, without…'' She said, ignoring Emily.

''Stop Jayje, you couldn't do anything about it! It isn't your fault!'' Derek said.

''They will hate me! I am weak that I didn't help her. I am selfish and dumb, who would do that to another person?! I just left her, I left her to die! I didn't even try to help her, and now she's dead, because of me!'' JJ cried. ''She's dead, because of me… He told me it was my fault this happened to you guys, now it's my fault what happened to the woman, why do I even live? I don't deserve you guys, I don't deserve a life! I deserve to die, I deserve to…'' She was interrupted by Reid who gave her a hug.

''You did nothing wrong Jayje, you're amazing, just the way you are.'' He said looking at her.

She said nothing but just nodded. The team all gave her a hug.

''How cute.'' The UnSub said while walking in the room.

''Leave her alone you bastard! You did enough to her!'' Derek yelled.

''Someone deserves a kick.'' He laughed. He kicked Derek in the stomach and he stumbled back, holding his stomach with his hand.

''Derek!'' Hotch yelled.

''You bastard! I will kill you! I swear if you touch somebody of my team again I will kill you!'' Garcia yelled full of anger.

''You want a kick to?'' He asked. Garcia said nothing and took a step back.

''What do you want from us?'' Rossi said angry.

''I don't want you, you are just leverage, so she does everything I tell her to do.'' He said pointing at JJ.

''Then what do you want from me? What did I ever do to you?'' She asked.

''You know what you did! You are a worthless slut! I can't believe I ever wasted my time with you! You do nothing but betray and lie!'' He yelled while he walked towards her. JJ backed up.

''I did nothing wrong, I don't even know you!'' She said.

''Oh, now you're lying again! I hate you! You're going to pay, you're all going to pay!'' He yelled and walked out of the room, slamming the door behind him.

''JJ, are you sure you don't know him?'' Reid asked.

''Yes! I am positive! I have never seen him before!'' JJ answered.

They didn't talk for almost an hour, when finally Garcia spoke.

''What did he mean by pay? How are we going to pay? Is he going to hurt somebody again?'' She asked looking at Derek who sat next to her.

''I don't know baby girl, but he's not going to hurt you, I am not going to let that happen!'' He said.

''But what if he kills you?!'' Garcia asked in shock.

''That's the risk I take then.'' Derek simply said.

''No!'' JJ suddenly yelled.

''Jayje, what's wrong sweetie?'' Emily asked.

''He's not going to hurt you! He's after me! I will not let him hurt you because of me!'' She said. ''He already kicked Morgan! I feel so guilty about it! So he's not going to hurt anybody, I will not let that happen because of me! I will not fight him anymore, he can do what he wants to do, as long as he doesn't hurt you guys.'' She said.

''JJ, we're not letting you get hurt, and you don't need to feel guilty about anything! Like we said before, it's not your fault!'' Reid said.

''No Jayje, no one thinks it's your fault!'' Emily said.

''Really?'' JJ asked.

''Yes really!'' Emily said.

''Thanks guys, you really help me through this, without you, I think I would be dead by now.'' JJ said.

''You don't need to thank us JJ, you are a very strong woman, you would have survived, you always do, just like you are doing now, you are surviving, we just help you with it.'' Rossi said wisely.

JJ giggled and the team laughed. They talked for a while when the door suddenly opened. The UnSub came in with a bucket with water and a tray with food. He threw it on the ground in front of the team and turned around, then he walked out of the room, not saying anything.

''You think it's poisoned?'' JJ asked.

''I think we are going to find out if we eat it, that's the risk I am going to take, I am starving!'' Emily laughed. She took a bite of the sandwich and smiled. ''This is delicious!''

Derek slowly stood up and walked towards the tray and took another sandwich off. ''You're right! It's fantastic!''

The team all ate their food and drank some water. Then the UnSub came back in again and picked up the empty tray and walked away again, not saying anything. Before he went out the door he shot an evil grin at JJ. JJ shivered and it did not go unnoticed by the team, they all saw the evil grin and looked angry at him, he walked out of the room and closed the door behind him.

''I am scared.'' Garcia finally admitted.

''I know baby girl, but we are going to get out of this!'' Derek said.

They all begun to talk and laugh except for JJ.


She knew it was her fault, she knew she was the one who had gotten the team into this, she felt so guilty, she didn't deserve the team as her friends, it was all her fault, everything happened because of her, Hotch couldn't see his son, Morgan was kicked in the stomach, Garcia was scared, Rossi couldn't see Strauss, Reid couldn't read any books, Emily, was Emily, she couldn't shop or gossip about boys with Garcia or one of her other friends. All of that was her fault. Everything was her fault.

''I am sorry guys…'' She said.

''For what JJ?'' Hotch asked.

''For everything I have gotten you into.''

''Jayje! Listen very carefully now!'' Emily said. ''None of this is your fault! You don't need to feel guilty, if I would be you, if I would be the one who was tortured and raped, you wouldn't think it's my fault! You would help me through it! Every one of us would do that! So it's not your fault! Never!'' She smiled at JJ.

''It is her fault!'' They heard someone say.


So that was chapter 10 already! I don't know if I can call this a cliffhanger, but I think it's some kind of cliffhanger thing, so it's a cliffhanger :p I hope you liked it! Love you all xx
