"Fucked up our life
All of the laws I've broken,
Loves that I've sacrificed
Is this the end?
I wrap my hands around your neck
So tight with love, love"
"No, please. Don't!" Samantha begged.
She loved the game that she was playing with this new and brilliant friend she met in the club a few nights ago. He was so handsome and, boy, was he good in bed! And he was even into the breath control kink! What a good hit! Apparently that club wasn't so boring after all. She met him and brought him home and he made her night! He really knew what he was doing. So … she had to do him again. And she did… on the next morning, then in the evening, then in the morning again, then they met for coffee and that's how it started 4 days ago. He was quite the charmer, such a gentleman. He paid for everything she had, he paid the taxi rides, he opened the doors for her… and now they were at her house playing out a rape scene. Rarely did she find such a good role-player… and this was the time they would do it – the smothering play. She loved it - the feeling of complete loss of control, even over her own life, turned her on so damn much! And this man, she wasn't sure how or why but he had earned her trust so fast and she trusted him a hundred per cent. Generally she would wait at least a month until she would let her new guy practice his breath control techniques on her but she just couldn't wait to feel this man wrap his hands around her neck.

Emily and Derek got out of their car and met the police officers at the scene. They crossed the yellow tape and walked into the victim's home. It was a two-story house with a front and back garden. The two agents found themselves in the living-room area after walking through the front door. It was a rather big room; well-furnitured. There was a staircase leading to the second floor and a couple of doors leading towards the kitchen and a bathroom.
"I'll call Reid." Emily suggested and Morgan nodded and kept on looking around.
"Hello?" Reid said after he picked up.
"I'm putting you on speaker." Prentiss informed.
"OK."
"We're in the house of the victim. There are two glasses of wine on the coffee-table." Morgan said.
"At least we're sure it started off in a pleasurable way." Commented Emily.
"I'm sure the unsub himself was pretty happy." Reid stated.
"Agents, you have to see this." A young policewoman said to Morgan and Prentiss. She was pretty and by the looks of it she loved her job and was aiming for a detective place. They met her when they went to the police station the other day before heading towards the previous crime scenes.
"What is it?" Morgan asked. He and Emily walked to where the policewoman was standing next to the CD player.
"I was at the other crime scenes as well and on them all this was the last song played." The policewoman said.
"Which is the song?" Reid asked over the phone.
""Up in the Air" by some band called 30 Seconds to Mars." Emily answered.
"Interesting choice of song." the policewoman commented.
"Why do you think so?" Reid asked again.
"Because it's so different form their other songs, before they used to make different music…"
"What do you mean 'different'?" Prentiss was intrigued.
"No, it's nothing important really." The woman said but the look she received from Emily made her change her mind. "I mean… this song became so famous because it sounds just like any other new song nowadays. Which, in my personal opinion, is not a very good thing. I mean… 30 Seconds to Mars used to be interesting because they were different and now … they're just like any other new band … even though they've been playing since 1998 but before they represented something different … motivating. Now they represent the new trend in music and that's just so … casual." The policewoman explained with a hint of sadness in her voice.
"But if it's not because of the music but because of the lyrics?" Started Spence.
"What do you mean, Reid?" Prentiss asked.
"What's the one thing we know for sure about this band?"
The policewoman looked at Derek and Emily and answered, "Well for one thing Jared Leto knows when to scream, when to stay quiet, he knows how to work up people with his music, trendy or the 'old' Mars music when we could feel the difference and were proud of being Mars fans." Now the woman was becoming judgmental but she really didn't care!
"So… you're saying that the music itself can motivate our unsub?" Derek asked.
"I guess Mars are still motivating. That's a good thing to hear." The policewoman said silently and headed out of the house.
"Sarcasm much?" Said Prentiss.
"She's right though, the lyrics of this song and the way it sounds can be provoking the unsub." Reid commented.
"Just one last thing!" the policewoman rose her voice up as she was close to the door and about to exit the house. "Whatever it is that this killer is thinking, I'm sure that Jared didn't have this in mind when he wrote the song." She gestured towards the second floor of the house where the bedroom and the dead body were.
"With that out of the way… What do you think happened?" Emily looked at Derek.
"Well, Reid is probably right - she was into that sort of things. She wanted it and then it got out of control…" Morgan explained, "But it was too late then, wasn't it?" he looked up towards the second floor.
The agents went upstairs to look at the crime scene. Once they were finished gathering the information they needed for the profile they headed back to Quantico. After the profile was done and released it was only a matter of time until they got the unsub as while everybody else was busy with things, so was Garcia. She found out that he hunted in the internet in websites about breath control play and that he sexually 'befriended' his victims so that they would let him play games with them. On top of all, the footage from the cameras in the bar where the latest victim had been to last turned out to be very helpful and the team got a picture of the unsub. One day after the profile was released the police caught the unsub walking towards a café where he was supposed to meet with a woman, most likely his next victim.

A/N: I know this deserves an explanation.
I was very angry with the video of "Up in the Air" and that's the reason for all the crap I gave you in this chapter. The truth is I love 30STM and I think the song itself is really good! I like it - big time. I'm still angry because of the commerciality of the video but, ah… whatever. The whole album "Love Lust Faith + Dreams" is really very good and I didn't mind spending a few pounds for it.
(And for the real ROCK music lovers – the new album of Deep Purple "Now What?!" is fantastic! It's made in the memory of the great Jon Lord.
Black Sabbath also have a new album with Ozzy Osbourne but I haven't listened to it yet…)
