Chapter ten: Will they get there in time?

Prentiss never saw the but of the gun coming. It knocked her out cold. Officer Addison went to draw his gun but he was too slow. Officer Jones aimed the gun and shot him.

"Why" Officer Addison gasped. "Why did you hurt the children?"

"Because of them my child couldn't get a place so I had to kill a child so they would have an opening but then another child got the place instead. My child deserved to be in that centre. She needed help. She was attacked and she couldn't even see who did it. She never saw it coming. Do you know how terrified she would have been and no one even cared. Well they will care now, won't they?"

Officer Addison shook his head "We didn't even know you had a daughter!" but he never heard the response as he passed out.

Jones picked Prentiss up and carried down the road towards his house which happened to be nearby. Not his official house where he lives with his wife but his own house where he can go when he was some company of an unsavoury kind or to watch sport. His wife does hate the sport.

When he had heard the FBI were coming to help in the investigation his first reaction had been panic then annoyance but now he realised it was always going to end this way. He wouldn't change it for the world. He looked down at his new friend, gently moved some of her hair out of the blood on her forehead and he smiled. 'First' he thought 'I'll have to clean her up then…..,' he smiled again.


30 minutes earlier.

Morgan once he had seen Prentiss off turned to his job of the day. He caught up with Reid as Reid was about to enter the head of the centre office.

They asked about plumbers and other service men they use. They showed the picture, not the one Prentiss has which is a fake one but one that Ms Wilson actually describe which happened to look a lot like the Jones. She didn't recognise the picture at first but then she suddenly stood up.

"Hang on minute. I know that face. It's not an employee or even a patient here but I think…"she routed around her desk then turned to the cabinet behind her "yes" she exclaimed as she grabbed a file "He is a Mr Jones and …"

Blood literally drained from Morgan face as realisation dawned on Reid's. Morgan stood up so quickly h knocked the chair over. He reached for his mobile but as he speed dialled two he heard the shot ring out through the air.

'Prentiss' he screamed in his head. Heart pounding he ran full speed towards the noise but when he got there he saw only Officer Addison. Morgan fell to his knees over Addison simultaneously checking for a pulse and dialling for an ambulance.

He found a faint pulse. At this point other cops and people form the centre started to show up. Morgan barked out orders to the cops. He told two to stay here with Addison and to control the crowds. The rest were to come with him.

Once they were on the move Morgan made the call to Hotch.

"Hotch, man we were right, it is Jones. He has Prentiss. He shot Addison."

"Is he dead?"

"No Addison is holding on. Where would he take Prentiss? He would have to move quickly. He couldn't have got far. My gut says he would have stayed on the path they were heading. Doubling back could risk running into someone."

"Agreed. Spread out and search every house path. We have to find her."

They both hung up and turned to the questioning faces around them.

Hotch turned to JJ who had been brought up to speed a few minutes before.

"We were right"

"Why does that not fill me with joy?" JJ responded knowing what was coming by Hotch's eyes but wanting to delay the actual words a few minutes more.

"He has Prentiss but we don't know where."

JJ merely nodded and rested her head on her hand and looked out the window.


Meanwhile back at the station news was spreading fast about Addison and Jones. Most cops take it hard when a) a cop is hurt by an unsub or b) when the cop is an unsub but when a cop is hurt by an unsub who is a cop chaos ensues. Emotions were running high and accusations even higher again. The chief eventually stood up on a desk and yelled

"If any one apart form me opens their mouth they can kiss there badge goodbye. I know we are all reeling from current events but we are still cops. Now the FBI came down here to help us. As a result one of their own is missing. Are we going to stand around arguing like teenagers or are we going to help them? Now I want two cops to go to the hospital and be with Addy and to keep us updated. Any volunteers?"

Almost every cop volunteered but she chose Max and Jerry because she knew they were probably the closest to Addy. Once they were gone she then started to ask "Where would Jones go? I know none of us want to admit it but we know him we have served with him for 20 years or so we can use that information."

"We might have served with him but we didn't know him, Mam. He never talked about himself, he never came out on social I know he is married because of his ring and that is about it."

The chief thought it over and it was true. "Ok well I have his file, it is a long shot but someone should check his house in case he went there, someone should check the centre since that seems to be a focal point of the case. Baker and Drake head to his house. I know we aren't feeling over nice towards Jones but keep in mind his wife is a victim to or will be soon when she finds out, so be nice. Kelly and Daven head to the centre make sure there is no trouble there. I'll ring Hotchner and see if he has any other suggestions."

With that she jumped lightly of the table and went into her office to make a call.


JJ was on the phone to Garcia. Filling her on details and Garcia being the heart of the group took it the hardest of all.

"Don't worry we will find her. She'll be ok."

"I know. I know but I still be happier when we have back in our midst."

"That makes all of us. Garcia we need you to find out all you can about Officer Jones, any clues where he might take Prentiss. Any properties he might own or friends he might have. Anything at all!"

"I'm on it. If this guy owns a pair of jeans I'll know about it.

"OK hear from you soon hopefully."

JJ turned to Hotch Garcia is on it. We'll know something soon."


Morgan was knocking on doors and asking everyone in the streets did they see anything. He was turning up nothing.

Damn it he cursed underneath his breath but Reid heard him.

"It is ok time is still on our side we will find her. There was only one shot so we know she isn't hurt."

"Wrong unless Prentiss decided to go with him willingly which I doubt very much he must have subdued her some how and they was an extra patch of blood that didn't seem to belong to Addison. At best we know she wasn't shot. And as for finding her I don't' doubt it but will we find her in time."

For anyone listening in they might think Morgan meant alive but in actual fact he was referring the time Reid was kidnapped. They had found in alive, barely but alive but he was addicted to drugs and quite clearly a changed man.

Reid merely nodded as he picked up on the reference.


He gently dabbed her forehead with a damp cloth as she started to rouse.

"Agh there you are my sweet, I thought I might have hit you to hard."

Prentiss took in her surrounded and tried to get her barings and with a whoosh it all came back to her. She started to struggle but her hands were cuffed with her cuffs and the handcuffs then were tied to the bed post. Buts till she continue to struggle. Jones merely laughed to her as she fought with the bed.

"You are beautiful. I have had a lot of women in this bed but you will be the finest."

Prentiss stopped moving but she kept her head down. Her mind was racing. She was calculating where they could be and how quickly Morgan will get here. Will it be in time?

Jones moved slowly towards Prentiss and he grabbed her face as she tried to look away. He forced her to meet his eye.

"Now I am going to finish cleaning your wound then you are going to lie down for me assuming you want to live."

"Where is Addison?" she asked

"He is in the other room. And not in good shape I am afraid. If you don't want to be responsible for his death you better let me finish up here quickly so I can call an ambulance for him. Or maybe you would prefer if it is just the two of us!"

Prentiss looked at him trying to decide whether he was lying he would be harder for him to move two bodies from the street so it is unlikely he would bother. Also she had a faint memory of hearing a gun shot wound but still she knew deep down she couldn't risk it on the of chance he was in the other room.

So with resignation she nodded towards him. So when he started to dab her wound again she tried her best not to wince from his touch.

Silently though she prayed they would find her soon. Images of Reid's trauma kept flashing through her head. She wasn't sure if she could recover like he did. Not that he ever recovered fully.
