Chapter 6
"She is a psychopath, she didn't hesitate to execute the guard. She even dragged him across to the camera to make sure we could watch. It won't be long before she starts hurting JJ more fulfilling her earlier threat she made." Reid told the group
"When we try to make contact with her, we are going to have to be really careful. One wrong word and JJ's dead. She doesn't care if she dies today." Rossi adds
Morgan is pacing around the room ready to hit the next thing to annoy him. He had been played for six months working along side a pretend FBI agent without a single alarm going off.
Suddenly everyone stops and looks at the ringing phone in the middle of the round table.
"Agent Reid." Boy wonder answered
"It had to be you answer the phone. I had to listen to you for six months, no more. Put super agent on the phone NOW!" Shouted Emily
Reid handed the phones handset across to Morgan
"SSA Morgan!" He answered
"Oh Derek I think we know each other well enough to use our first names, don't you think?" Emily singsonged over the phone.
"Yes I do Emily." Morgan cringed at his mistake instantly
"Derek!, Derek! How many times do I have to tell you? Transfer this call to the plasma." Ordered Emily
Derek transferred the call to the plasma and Emily's face appears sat on the floor next to a pale JJ. Her white blouse crimson down her right side from her bullet wound in her shoulder. Emily pressed the butt of he gun into it.
"Arghh!" Screamed JJ passing out from the pain.
"This is your fault Derek, what is my name?" Taunted Emily
Emily pulled the pen from JJ's jacket pocket and stabbed it into her right side as far as she could and pulled it out allowing it to bleed.
"Don't worry Derek it's not fatal it's just going to bleed a lot. But she is small and how many extra holes can she survive?. I think I will pop one of those enchanting blue eyes next" Smirked Emily. She waved at the screen and ended the call on JJ's cell
"BITCH!" Yells Morgan throwing his coffee mug against the wall.
EJ
Strauss walks in and passes Garcia a slip of paper with a I.P address on it. Garcia types away and a live video feed of a detention cell appears.
"What is this Ma'am?" Asked Reid
"OPR had them installed in all detention cells and interview rooms about a year ago." Strauss just shrugged
They can now watch Emily and JJ live without them knowing. JJ looked very pale, she was conscious now sat up against the cell wall.
"Do you think they will send me in some boiling water and a plastic bag?" Taunted Emily
"Just get on with it you crazy BITCH!" JJ told her
They listened to the outburst from the cell.
"JJ, please don't taunt her, please don't." Garcia shouted to her friend.
"We need a plan and assault plan in place." Hotch told his team.
EJ
Emily paced the cell, she had attacked the guard and JJ over two hours ago and no contact from the boss. She was beginning to think they had just disappeared into the forest never to be seen again.
'Buzz!, Buzz!' She hears from the guards pocket
Emily pulls out his radio from his utility belt and pressed the button.
"About time." Emily answered
"The camera feed is looped. What have you done with your handlers?" The metallic voice told her
"What do you think? They made money using me, they died very slowly and painfully. Now how about you get me out of here?" Emily asked
"Everything in time Lauren, when Morgan asks to come down and negotiate face to face say yes but you don't want him, but you'll accept someone not on the team." The metallic voice instructed
"Then what?" Emily asked
"Trust me. Start pacing again." She was instructed "good, your live in 3. 1 - 2 - 3"the radio went dead.
EJ
The BAU team had discussed the assault plan to rescue JJ, but the chance of successfully rescuing JJ alive where very slim. Their only chance at the moment was to try and get a dialogue going. They needed to negotiate with Reynolds face to face.
"Derek, when you go down remember, she is going to taunt you. Do not respond even if She hurts JJ. She looks bad Derek but she can survive a little longer the paramedics think." Rossi warned his friend.
Derek dials JJ's phone.
"Hi, Derek nice of you to call, how might I help you?" Smirked Emily
"I would like to come down and negotiate face to face please?, Lauren." He asked
"No!" She answered
"No! Why not Lauren?" A curious Morgan asked
"Not you, or any member of your team. Send some one else." Ordered Emily
"Okay I can arrange that give me a few minutes and I will get back to you." Morgan told Emily
"Send Strauss." Reid suggested
Rossi and Hotch looked at each other and just shrugged
EJ
Hotch and Strauss had managed to persuade Chief Strauss to be the negotiator. They escorted her down to the holding cell instructing her what to say.
"What if she doesn't speak to me?" Erin asked
"Just look her in the eyes and wait for her to respond, don't push her." Hotch smiled
"Don't worry Ma'am. Make sure your vest is tight and never take it off in there." Rossi reminded her
Strauss walked up the door and called Emily telling her she was outside.
Emily opened the door allowing Strauss through slamming it shut behind her making her jump.
Flashback 10 minutes
The radio beeped again
"Yes." Answered Emily
"When Strauss arrives just stare at her for ten minutes why we get enough to loop the feed." The metallic voice instructs
End Flashback
Emily had looked at Strauss silently for 10 minutes as instructed.
"The feed is looped Lauren, we are safe." Smiled Strauss
Emily noted that Strauss demeanour changed instantly once the feed was looped.
She handed her a ear wig from her vest. Emily slid it into her ear to find out who was behind this.
"Hello Lauren." Spencer Reid laughed
"The book nerd, I didn't see that coming. How do I get out of this alive?." Emily asked
Before Emily can react a obviously well trained women closed the gap between them and threw her to the floor. "Your live sweetheart, try to make it look bad," Reid tells his wife
Erin grabs Emily's weapon turns it to her side and pulls the trigger twice and rolls off the bleeding woman.
"I need help in here now!" Shouts Strauss.
JJ stands up from her position and rammed Strauss's head into the cell wall hard twice knocking her unconscious. She knelt down at the side of Emily and applied pressure to her two gunshot wounds. Emily pulled JJ down and whispered something into her ear
JJ pulled the ear wig out of Emily's ear and placed it into her own ear.
"Spencer are you still there?" She asked
There was no answer, Dr Spencer Reid had obviously disappeared. JJ held her hands over Emily's wounds trying to slow the bleeding. The paramedics arrived cutting her overalls off exposing the wounds. They applied pads and scooped her onto the stretcher and took her to the ambulance.
Erin Strauss still unconscious had been handcuffed to the stretcher she had been placed on and transferred to a Secluded medical unit run by the CIA for treatment. JJ covered in fake and real blood just walked straight past her BAU team mates and into the ambulance taking the seriously wounded Emily to hospital.
EJ
JJ paced the waiting room like a tigress, she snarled at anyone who asked her if she was Ok. Even her own team stayed clear. Emily had been on the operating table for four hours, Strauss bullets had done severe damage to a kidney and it's associated blood vessels. Emily had 6 units of blood to try and stabilise her so far.
"Agent Jareau? A word please." Hotch told her
"Hotch?" Asked JJ
"Mind telling me what's going on?" A confused unit chief asked
This had been the first time he had been able to ask JJ what the hell was going on. Reid was missing and now on the FBI's most wanted list. Erin Strauss had been arrested under the patriot act. His media liaison had faked her kidnapping and own shooting at Quantico. He was well beyond confused.
"Perhaps I can Help you with that SSA Hotchner." The FBI director stated
"Sir, I hope you can." Hotch replied
The Director took Hotch back to Quantico to tell
him just enough to satisfy him.
Two doctors walked into the waiting room dressed in theatre scrubs.
"Family of Laureen Reynolds?" One asked
"I'm her girlfriend." Replied JJ to the surprise of her remaining BAU team members
"Your girl friend survived her surgery we had to remove her right kidney it was too damaged to repair. The bullets did a lot of damage to her blood vessels around her kidney. She is stable at the moment but the next 24hrs will be the test for her. I can take you up to her room in the ICU. But you will have to change first your covered in blood." The doctor explained
JJ followed a nurse and quickly showered in their changing room dressing in a set of scrubs. The nurse took her to Emily's room.
"I've just found you Lauren, you fight, you fight for me and the children do you hear me?" Cried JJ
Everything had gone as planned until Strauss had shot Emily twice in her side. Spencer being the brains behind the operation she had not gotten her head around that yet. JJ grabbed Emily's hand and pulled her chair close to the bed and laid her head down.
Morgan and Garcia looked in at the sleeping woman and the arms dealer laying unconscious in the bed.
"What all this about? Baby girl" Morgan asked
"That's love, but it feels like a crime show." Answered Garcia
Suddenly numerous machines went into alarm. The nurses ran in and told JJ to get out. Garcia rushed up and pulled JJ out the room while the nurses and doctors tended to Lauren. Garcia pulled JJ into a tight hug as she screamed when she heard the doctor pronounce Lauren dead.
The nurses quickly disconnected Emily from her life support machines and allowed JJ to sit with her. Morgan and Garcia remained with her for a while. JJ kissed her soul mate good bye,, she started to feel cold again. JJ sat with Emily for hours holding her hand, detectives had visited to JJ's annoyance to take finger prints and a DNA sample so they could close their 3 open homicide case.
EJ
Erin Strauss was sat in a very posh chair in her underwear covered in cold pads secured with straps. She had a blindfold of sorts over her eyes. Edith and Alfred approached holding a syringe full of their drug concoction they used on Emily. The CIA had taken the couple on as their procedure had a second use, interrogation without physical abuse. It didn't matter to the CIA if a few early candidates died.
They injected her and waited for it to start coursing through her system before they went to work. The CIA had asked the couple to see if they can get any information out of the soon to be disgraced FBI section chief. Alfred turned on the small Monitor contained in the blindfold goggles and pressed play. Images and sound where now being viewed by the drugged woman allowing them to start the questioning.
"Tell me about your organisation?" Edith started
EJ
Back at the BAU after the shock of Reid's duplicity in using Lauren Reynolds as a mercenary hiring the arms dealer out to the highest bidder the director wanted his flagship unit put back together. He promoted Hotch to be the new section chief and Morgan to be the unit chief. Ashley Sever had completed her time at the FBI academy, she was now detailed to start work with the unit next week.
JJ now sat in front of her new unit chief.
"Congratulations, on your promotion." Smiled JJ, with a heavy heart.
"Agent Jareau, you have actively associated with a known wanted criminal and not arrested them, until you escaped from being held captive. You swore an oath to uphold the law, which you failed to do on multiple occasion. I have no idea what occurred in the holding cell, the Director has told me to forget it. JJ your no longer a team player, you give me no choice but to terminate your employment. I need your weapons, security passes and credentials on my desk. You have one hour to collect you belongings and vacate the building." A devastated Morgan tells his old friend
JJ tearfully hands over her credentials and walks out his office.
"Hotch, it's Morgan I've just done it. I'm not happy about it but it's done." He told Hotch on the phone
The new section chief phoned the FBI director and informed him SSA Jennifer Jareau had been terminated from the FBI.
JJ packed her personal items into a box and just walked out of the BAU without any fanfare. She knew the pain would subside but it was too raw to talk. She just wanted to get home and pack, Jennifer's distant relative had died and left his estate to her. The Jareau's where now a very wealthy family indeed. She never had to work another day in her life she thought.
EJ
Four days later JJ sat alone in the chapel waiting for Emily's cremation, her coffin lid was open local police officers had to be called as the press wanted pictures of the arms dealer who posed as a FBI agent who murdered 8 women. After a few words Emily's casket rolled away ready for her cremation. JJ allowed a few tears to fall before she walked away. The funeral home would send Emily's ashes to her in her new beach front estate in Hawaii.
EJ
It had been two months since Emily died so JJ decided it was time to move to her new beach front estate in Hawaii. The kids where looking forward to it, JJ was as as well, she just didn't know how the kids would manage 13 hours on the plane.
JJ, Henry and Lizzy walked down to the beach for a swim after their 13 hour flight. They saw a red headed woman just walking towards them from the swimming pool. She wrapped a towel around herself and smiled. She had piercing opal green eyes and stunning shoulder length red hair.
"Elizabeth, nice to see you." JJ smiled
"How was the flight?" Elizabeth asked
"Too long." JJ smiled leaning in for a kiss
Before they could deepen the kiss Henry pulled on Elizabeth's arm,
"EJ, EJ, EJ, EJ." As he pulled her towards the sea.
"Okay, Okay." Elizabeth laughed
JJ watched as the two kids dragged Elizabeth Jareau her wife of two years to get their bathing costumes on. Jeniffer thought to herself not bad for a twice resurrected chick, very hot. She also very much hoped the red head was fully healed as she most certainly wanted to explore her wife's body those new green eyes just did something to her
Flashback
The nurse escorted JJ to Emily's ICU bed. She pulled the chair over to the side of her bed and grabbed her hand. Hidden by her body she removed a syringe filled with a mixed toxin that would slow Emily's heart rate and breathing enough she would look dead. The doctor pronouncing her dead was on the CIA's pay roll.
JJ opened the IV port on her cannula and injected the toxin and removed the syringe and placed it in her pocket. She just had to wait for all her medical monitors to start sounding their alarms. JJ thought to her self by the end of the day she should be awarded an Oscar. She applied the crying stick under her eyes to start the tears flowing ready for Emily's death.
The alarms started sounding and the medical team rush in but not in time.
"Lauren!" Screamed JJ
End Flashback
Elizabeth walked up to JJ and handed her bikini to her and slapped her ass, "go on get changed we will wait for you." She smiled, JJ got lost in those green eyes.
Lizzy was sat on Emily's hip head against the woman's side falling a sleep.
"Lub you, Mama." Said the sleepy girl
Lizzy's admission of love just brought tears to her eyes. The magical moment wasn't spoilt by Lauren. Emily had her brain to herself, Pirate Captain JJ was correct.
Suddenly she jumped as she felt JJ wiping the falling tears from her face.
"Happy tears, don't worry." Smiled Emily
"Sea EJ come on!" Shouted Henry
JJ took Emily's left hand and grabbed Henry's hand as the family of four walked to the sea. Emily was amazed how easily the children had taken to her new hair colour and calling her Mama or EJ. She wished is was as easy for her. She had been Emily and Lauren and now was Elizabeth Jareau.
Start flashback
Emily and JJ lay naked in bed after a cuddle session. Emily was not nearly as injured as they had advertised. Strauss had caught her side with her first round breaking a lower rib, the second round had entered her abdomen. Causing moderate damage to her kidney which the surgeons repaired just requiring rest much to the new love birds chagrin. They both looked at a eye colour chart. Emily was having a minor operation to change the colour of her eyes.
"Oh, how about these blue ones. I really like them." Emily tells her wife
"They are nice of course." JJ smiles indicating her blue orbs "but look at these green ones, I really love them." She flutters her eyes
"How about these Elizabeth, after all your going to be my arm Candy." Smirked JJ
Emily looks at the size D Brest implants she is handed by a smirking wife.
"Anything else you would like to change sweetheart?" Asked Emily
JJ looks to her wife smiling and opens her mouth to say something when she is hit in the head by a pair of size D silicon breast implants.
Emily laughed out loud, JJ had chosen her new permeant hair colour. Emily knew even though their marriage was only two hours old, JJ would get what ever she wanted. The CIA medical team had transformed her finger prints by inserting some micro filaments into the pads of her fingers changing her finger prints. If anyone ran her prints they would discover Elizabeth Jareau a wife and mother of two children.
End flashback
Emily sat with JJ on the beach watching Henry and Lizzy building sandcastles laughing, the move to Hawaii not affecting them.
"Thank you doesn't seem enough Jennifer, I have everything I ever wanted. A beautiful wife and two adorable children." Smiled Emily.
" don't you mean your amazingly rich beautiful wife?" JJ smiled. Tilting her head backwards to kiss her wife.
"Do I get an allowance as I am now a kept woman?" Laughed Emily "I can do some chores if you would like."
"I'll think of something." Smirked JJ
EJ
Spencer Reid sat in the SUV watching Garcia drink her coffee with Morgan. The former FBI agent now sported a pony tail. He had changed back to his normal style no longer having to be the 'Nerdy, boy wonder' to maintain his long term cover. He had spent the last month finding his wife Erin taken by the CIA for questioning.
She had been questioned by a married couple using a new experimental method. She had survived but had suffered some mental damage. Reid wanted revenge on Jareau, her slamming his wife's head repeatedly into the wall had caused her a stroke. Reid couldn't find where she went after she had been fired from the FBI. So he decided to bring her to him by kidnapping Garcia and threatening her life. That should bring her scurrying home.
"Bye, my honey bear" Garcia waved
She walked along the side walk for a distance until she was grabbed by two men an pushed into the side door of a van. The last thing she felt was a sting in her neck until she was engulfed in the darkness.
EJ
Garcia slowly opened her eyes her head felt like it was splitting open. She was tied to a wooden chair secured to the cement floor.
"Hello, Penelope, did you miss me?" Smiled Reid walking into her view
Garcia just looked surprised at Reid and his new look. Jeans and a leather jacket over a shirt, the noticeable thing was he carried to two automatics in a holster on his back in line with his spine. Gone was the revolver on his hip.
"Where did Jennifer go?" He asked her angrily slapping her across her cheeks
"I don't know, you have to believe me. Please stop!" A frightened Garcia cried.
EJ
A/N
I planned on finishing the story on the beach with the family. Reid was never going to be a Bad guy in this story. It just seemed to fit when I was working on Strauss section in the cell. Would you be interested in me continuing this story?
