Tannerose5 - I live in Britain where the got summer finally kicked in. It usually rains here for most of the year so I'm not used to the heat.

Enjoy and please review!

All mistakes are my own

Reid waited for his class to take their seats, Daniel gave a subtle cough telling him they were ready to begin.

"Okay, so I have looked at all your recent assignments. I asked you to profile the selected unsub that I gave you as well as give me background triggers, I wanted you to take apart each facet of the unsub's life and to tell me what led them to commit the crimes. I'll be honest, many of you did very well on your profiles they are very thorough and well done. Many of you show the ability to profile very well and I'm confident that you can put your profiling skills into areas of the FBI that you decide to pursue. A few of you on the other hand, did not do as well."

"Dr Reid, may I asked a question?" a male voice called out.

"Please, I welcome questions, Mr Harris."

"How did you know it was me?" the man said with surprise.

"I know its you, Mr Harris, because of your voice. It's loud but gets quieter as you finish talking. Please, ask your question."

"I don't see how profiling is effective when you are confronting a suspect. If you are in fight, words are not going to help."

"Mr Harris, reading your assignment, I found myself thinking that you would be well suited for a tactical unit," Reid said honestly. "Your profiling skills were not as correct as most of your fellow cadets. You're strapped to a chair with a gun in your face, how would you talk down the unsub?"

"I wouldn't let myself get into the situation," Harris said, arrogance lacing his voice.

"When you enter the FBI, you don't think you will ever get into a situation where you are about to become a victim but it can happen. Do you want to know why I think you're suited for a tactical team. You are a team player, I know that from speaking with the other instructors. Your profiling skills are not well-defined. Solving a case with a group would not suit you but taking the lead with another more alpha defined group would allow you to further your career in the FBI. Profiling is one of the best tools you can use in your career. It can help you recognise strange behaviour. Behaviour that may show what they are going to do next or what they may have already done. To catch an unsub, you have to think like one. Only the strongest out of all you cadets could handle being a full-time profiler. You have to see horrific actions, actions you never thought another living person would be capable of doing. You have to bring the darkest part of yourself and put yourself in the unsub's shoes. Anything you would like to add, Mr Harris?"

"No sir," Harris said before swallowing nervously.

"I want you to all to know that when you become an agent, you have to be willing to sacrifice your life. I will tell you all something that I told someone else. You'll make enemies being an agent and those enemies will not forget. You have to be aware that they may come after you if they get released. Just remember this though, you will save lives and be making a difference in the FBI. Just knowing that someone is out in the world, living a full and happy life because of you, it makes any worries disappear and makes being an agent the best thing in the world."

"Sir," a young female cadet asked timidly. "H-How did you lose your sight?"

"I lost my sight protecting someone I love."


Reid walked through the park with Buzz leading him. He still used his cane as the dog was still learning to guide him. He felt happy as he felt the warm sun on his face. He was walking on his own and knew that if Garcia knew, she would freak out. He felt a wonderful sense of relief as he realised how wonderfully normal his life had become since his attack by Barry. He had a job, a wonderful life at home and his nightmares were getting less and less each week. Emmy was doing amazingly well in her studies and finally felt that she was part of the family.

"Dr Reid?"

Reid froze as he heard his name. He recognised the voice all to well.

"Nathan Harris," he said gently.

"Hello, Dr Reid."

"How are you doing, Nathan?"

"Much better, Dr Reid. I got some help and I've had a stable job for the last two years. What happened to you?"

"Just the world," Reid said, he felt nervous being around Nathan. The last time he had seen the young man, he'd shown signs of being a future unsub. Without his sight, he couldn't see if any of those signs were still present. "I'm doing better now with the support of my team."

"I never got to thank you for saving my life that night," Nathan said. "I wouldn't be here today if you hadn't been there to save me."

"We all have those thoughts," Reid said sadly. "I'm just happy that you are getting on with a happy and normal life."

"Reid!" another voice called out. It was Emmy. He heard her run up to them with another pair of footsteps following her. He felt her small hand on his arm. "Hello Reid, I didn't expect to see you here."

Emmy looked at Nathan Harris. "Who is this?"

"I'm Nathan Harris. Dr Reid helped me a few years ago. He saved my life."

Blake walked up to Reid's other side. "Hello Spencer."

"Nathan, this is Alex Blake, a fellow profiler on my team. To my other side is Emmy, she is training to become an FBI agent."

"It was nice to meet you both," Nathan greeted. "I should get going, my lunch hour is almost over. Thank you again, Dr Reid, for what you did. Goodbye."

"Goodbye Nathan."

Reid let out a breath of relief as Nathan walked away. He felt Emmy shiver next to him.

"Hrgh! Sorry, that guy just gave me the creeps," Emmy shivered.

"You aren't the only one," Blake said. "Are you okay, Spencer?"

"I'm fine, I was about to go and get something to drink. Would you two like to join me?" he asked trying to get Nathan out of his head.

"Absolutely," the two women said in unison.
