SSAFunbar – Murph is the kind to brag, some criminals are just like that

SagaObsessed – Viola is not done yet. There is more to come

Rayne McKenna – No one likes Murphy, but I do have something planned for him

68luvcarter – This story as not yet ended

Twilightmecrazii – I hope you do like this next part. It has a little bit of justice in it

Szarabasjka – Garcia as the right to know, and J.J. was the best one to break it to her. Besides they had to profile the apartment. He might have left something suggesting where he might be going.

Pipinheart – Yup, and that protective nature is going to come out real soon

The Spanish girl – 'ola. My best Spanish unfortunately is no se habla espanol. I can still read bits and pieces though so thank you.

Zannababana – Yup, Murph attacked a Federal Agent, trust me he has to run. You are right they do need to catch the FAR. This is the funny thing. If you were to look at the document I uploaded it says ODed. However for some reason when it loaded onto the site it didn't go. I had completely missed that when I was giving it the once over before I added the chapter. Strange.

To all, this chapter is a little long, I just couldn't see where to cut it at. I hope you don't mind. Anyway this chapter will not please some of you because you want to see something else happen. However I have had several requests for this part, so whichever way you leaned to I still hope you enjoy this part.

Chapter 21 The FAR

In the morning Morgan took Reid back to his apartment so he could get dressed. While he was in the apartment Morgan saw the building manager and requested that the locks on the doors be changed. With just a little bit of charm the custodian was up there in a matter of fifteen minutes.

Reid walked around his apartment for a moment before changing into his regular clothes. If felt good changing back into his normal clothes. He was still careful with his broken finger. It was still in its cast. "I'm ready." He said to Morgan who was watching the lock being put in.

"Ready for what?"

"Going to work." Reid said.

"No way kid, Hotch said you can take some time off."

"I can't just sit around here." Reid said. "I'll feel safer at the BAU."

Hotch had called Morgan and told them that Murph had skipped town and they had no leads on where he might be going.

Garcia had looked through every security camera that belonged to every train and bus and gas station. Right now she had his fingerprints, DNA, and face pinged. If they were put in the system anywhere she would know about it.

The FBI and local police had set up a manhunt to try and find him.

Rossi and Prentiss had continued to interrogate Rhodes, hoping that he would give them an answer to where Murphy might have gone.

Murphy had vanished and they could not figure out a way to catch him. He had gotten away.

"No work." Morgan said.

"I have to see the shrink anyways." Reid said grabbing his sweater. His messenger bag was still in evidence.

They drove in together without a word and headed into the office.

"Spence." J.J. said greeting him. "I didn't think you would come in." She said hugging him. "Are you doing alright?"

Reid loved the hug, there was something about J.J.'s hugs that were warm and comforting. "I just wanted to be with the team." He said holding onto her.

J.J. knew from being around profilers that rape victims did not want to be touched so soon after the attack. Reid seemed to be the opposite.

After he pulled away she looked at him. "I talked with Viola today before she went to school. She's fine. I'm going to pick her up from school today and try to talk with her mom."

Reid nodded. He knew from talking to Viola what her life was like. "Are you going to try to convince her to go stay with her dad or for her mom to go to rehab?"

"I don't know yet."J.J. said. "I'll figure that out today after we talk. She's a brave girl."

"Yes she is." Reid agreed.

Hotch had seen Reid in the bullpen and immediately stepped out. "I thought I told you to stay home."

"I figured I would go crazy there." Reid said "Please let me stay here. I have an appointment at three, anyway."

"Alright," Hotch agreed. At least here they knew he wouldn't get hurt.

Reid had not seen Garcia yet. He knew that she would want to see him with her own eyes. He stepped into her office and found himself in a giant hug.

"My baby my baby I am so sorry." Garcia said as she continued to hug him.

"I'm fine." Reid whispered to her. "I'm safe now."

Garcia pulled away for a second to touch Reid's face, but resumed to hugging him again.

The hug felt so good to Reid. This was honest affection. It made him feel warm and whole. Not cold and alone, that's how Murphy made him feel.

Reid had decided to stay with Garcia for a moment before going to his own desk.

Garcia refused to talk about Murphy, she just talked about everything the team did to try and find him and how happy she was that he was home.

There was something about talking to Garcia that made Reid cheerful.

However, the surprise of the day though came after lunch.

Erin Strauss came into the BAU. When she came in she immediately took a seat next to Reid. "How are you feeling?" She asked in a calm tone.

"I'm still a little sore, but I will be alright." Reid answered.

"You shouldn't have come in you know." Strauss said.

"I chose to." Reid answered. "I feel better here. This is more of a home to me than anywhere. I have to be here for my appointment anyway."

"I don't want you under any stress." Strauss advised.

"No ma'am. I am just relaxing." Reid said.

Strauss seemed to pause for a moment. "I'm sorry that there weren't any leads on Murphy. I sent out several messages to FBI offices and local PDs. I know it was a terrible experience and I'm sorry that you had to go through that."

"I'll survive." Reid answered.

"I'm sure you will. Try to avoid any real work." Strauss said getting up and heading towards Hotch's office.

In truth Reid had secretly read through the case file for the FAR and was preparing notes to do up a geographic profile.

Reid waited for Strauss to leave before he went into the conference room and helped Prentiss on the geographic profile. In truth he could not sit idly by.

Hotch normally would not have allowed Reid to work, but he seemed to be better when he started working.

The team continued to narrow down the profile. They wanted to know for sure if they were dealing with an actual agent, someone who failed out of the academy, or someone who picked a good rouse.

They had agreed upon it being someone who failed out of the academy, or maybe applied.

During the afternoon, being true to her word, J.J. left to pick Viola up from school and talk with her mother. She had already explained to Hotch what she had planned.

Reid only took a break when it was time for his appointment.

They all knew Reid would dance around the questions and give the "correct" answers. Hotch had already warned the poor doctor ahead of time. He was going to be sure Reid was fine before they allowed him in the field.

While the team was working they figured out a pattern and had decided that the FAR was going to strike that night. Garcia managed to find the target. There was a seminar going on that night in the Parker Center for High School and College kids discussing opportunities in the technology field.

"That would be his prime hunting ground." Rossi commented. "Low risk kids in what is considered a safe environment."

"It fits with the geographic profile, it is in his hunting area. So what do we do?" Reid asked. He wanted this guy just has much as the rest.

"You're going to stay in the van with Strauss. She said that she wants to see the FAR taken down personally." Hotch said. "That's why she was in my office earlier."

"She's willing to go back into the field?" Prentiss asked.

"There won't be a murderer this time." Hotch said. "I advised her to stay out of the way. This Un-Sub has made it through surveillance before."

"But he won't make it through my cameras." Garcia answered. "I have every single camera in that center under my control."

"Good." Hotch said. "We will all stay outside in vehicles. J.J. and Prentiss I want you roaming around there. Try to dress and act casually. I do not want you attracting attention to yourselves. He will need to feel safe there."

The team waited for the seminar to start before they left. Hotch wanted minimal security. If this Un-Sub even felt an increased security presence he would leave before they had the chance to find him.

Reid had stayed with Strauss inside the van watching the monitors that Garcia was filtering to them.

Morgan, Rossi, and Hotch were in different SUVs at different places in the parking lot waiting for Garcia to give them anything.

"This guy looks just like Reid." The heard Garcia say at once. She directed one of the videos to a tall lanky man with matted hair that was walking around in a suit.

J.J. and Prentiss had agreed not to use earpieces, it would attract attention to them. So Garcia had to call Prentiss since she was closest to him and gave her directions on spotting him.

After receiving directions, Prentiss casually walked past him, trying not to get too close. The similarities were uncanny.

She then stepped away so he would not feel he was being watched.

In the van Reid and Strauss just stared at the potential suspect. The resemblance between him and Reid were incredible.

"Please tell me that you don't have an evil twin." Strauss asked.

Reid started in on the statistics of twins and the concept of a good and evil twin. Rambling like he always did.

Strauss squinted her eyebrows at him.

"Sorry ma'am."

Garcia made sure her cameras stayed on the subject. She did not want to lose him. That was when she got lucky. He unknowingly looked directly at the camera. "I got you." She said. "He just looked at my camera I'm running face analysis now." She said proudly.

"Alright teamsters listen up. Our Un-Sub's name is Corey Reynolds. He has one arrest on file, indecent exposure at a park."

"That's a precursor." Morgan said.

"He also applied to the FBI Academy, but they refused his application." She paused for a moment. "He's got a girl. He's taking her to the parking lot east side. He's going towards you Hotch. Oh God."

"We're following him." Morgan said getting out of his own vehicle and heading towards Hotch. He wanted to tear this guy apart.

Hotch spotted him first and raised his side arm. "F.B.I. Don't move! Do not get in that car." He shouted at Reynolds and the girl.

The girl froze, unsure. Reynolds had his arm around the girl, gripping her tightly.

"Let her go Reynolds." Hotch said in his authorative voice. Morgan was moving to the side. Rossi was coming up behind just out of sight.

"Listen to me, it's all over." Hotch said trying to keep Reynolds attention on him. "Just come in quietly."

"It was consensual." Reynolds barked, his voice was deep in harsh. A polar opposite to Agent Reid. "They got in the car." He continued his hold on the girl who couldn't have been more than fifteen. She was whimpering in pain.

Rossi had managed to sneak up behind Reynolds now. He placed his gun right on Reynolds' head. "Let her go." He said in a commanding voice.

Reynolds reluctantly released his grip.

"Come to me." Prentiss called to the girl, extending her arms.

The girl ran to Prentiss. J.J. and Prentiss held onto the whimpering girl whispering that it would be alright.

Strauss and Reid had left the van and started running towards Hotch as soon as Garcia told them that he had a girl. They came upon the scene just as Rossi managed to get Reynolds to let go of the girl.

Rossi and Morgan both took Reynolds down. He was fighting the entire time.

"Stay still." Morgan wrestled to get the cuffs on to him. He then patted him down. He pulled out Reynolds' wallet and handed it to Rossi.

Rossi looked at. As far as fakes went, this one was pretty good. He then handed it over to Strauss.

"Did you know it was a federal offense to impersonate a federal agent?" She asked Reynolds staring him directly in the face.

He replied by haucking a luggy right in her face. "The Bitches wanted it and they know it."

"That's enough." Morgan forcefully put Reynolds into the SUV. He was going to enjoy putting this guy in lock up.

Corey Reynolds had pretty much confessed to seven FBI agents about committing sexual assault after being caught with a potential victim. He had also spit at least one good fluid ounce of saliva at an FBI Section Chief. The judge really had no trouble issuing the search warrant for his apartment.
