Chapter 3

"You pair listen to what Emily tells you, ok?" Henry and Maddison nodded enthusiastically at their departing mother,

"I will be home early as we need to go clothes shopping, ok." A tearful mother told her children. Afraid to leave her children after yesterday's fire

Emily could see the internal battle Jenifer was having about leaving her children.

Stepping up to the confused Mother Emily kissed her at the side of her cheek. Her kiss was so close to her mouth it allowed Emily to gently caress her lips with a slow flick of her tongue. Pulling back looking into JJ's face she could see a smile.

"Bye, Bye I will see you later guys." JJ kissed her children and walked out the door.

Emily watched the a blonde agent walk out the door still feeling the tingling sensation on her lips and tongue. She smiled as she felt the butterflies floating around her stomach.

" get dressed guys and I will take you shopping for clothes and then to the toy store." Emily told her new charges

"Yeah!" Both children shouted running up the stairs to change.

As JJ walked into the BAU her team all surrounded her asking if she was feeling ok and how Henry and Maddison were.

"Round table room." Announces Hotch

"JJ, wait." Hotch told his media liaison

"Are you sure you are fine to be back so soon? No one would think badly of you if you took a few days to be with the kids. Were are Henry and Maddison?" He asked very concerned about his young agent.

"I need to be here Hotch, that bastard tried to kill my kids. Emily is looking after the kids until I get home." JJ replied

"Prentiss?" Hotch Questioned

"Hotch, you should have seen her burns, she got those saving my children. I don't doubt her for a second." JJ replied.

They both enter the round table room and sit down.

"Our UnSub deliberately burnt the Taylor's alive. He had them tied in their bedroom and used his gel mixture on the husbands groin and his wife's foot. He also tried rigging the house to injure the fire fighters making entry into the house. Emily thinks he has escalated because Henry and Maddison were rescued by the fire fighters." Morgan briefed everyone

"I think he might turn and directly attack you now Jennifer. After your news conference he's has now set his sights on you. I think the house fires to date have just been random, that's why Spencer hasn't found anything to link the fires. I know I'm new to the team and all, I think this fire starter has been doing this longer to hone his craft. I humbly think we need to expand our state search considerably." Emily breathed deeply waiting for Hotch's reply

Morgan grabbed his wife's hand under the table and gave it a supporting and I am proud of you squeeze.

Rossi turned to their newest team member and smiled.

"Emily, always trust your instincts, we have all done this so long we sometimes get blinkered. Your a fresh set of eyes. I think it's a good idea, you'll soon be out smarting your husband." Smirks Rossi

"Don't worry sweetheart I will still love you when your the dunce." Laughed Emily

"I agree with Rossi, liaise with Garcia and run with your idea. You're going to need more fingers for your searches, have Garcia liaise with her boss to get all the help she needs. Derek as your the dunce in the Morgan household I think donuts are in order." Hotch replied a slight smirk on his face

Emily gently punched her husband in his shoulder pointing to the door.

" nice to see who actually wears the trousers." Laughed JJ

EJ

The team spent the day chasing up leads and reading files trying to find some thing they missed.

"Mama, Mama." JJ heard as her children burst through her open office door

"Hi, what are you doing here?" A curious mother asked

"Aunt Emily suggested bringing the team coffee and cakes." Smiled Henry

"Aunt Emily?" Smirked JJ

"Momma she's great, we went clothes shopping, toy shopping and then we went on a fire truck. Look at my new trainers." A very happy daughter shows her mother her sparkling converse sneakers.

"Wow, there pretty. Where is Aunty Emily?" Asked JJ

"Speaking with Uncle Dave and Morgan in the round table room." Henry tells his mother

"How many toys did Aunt Emily buy you both?" A curious mother asked

"We like her Mama, she never said no." Smirked two very spoilt children.

"Aunt Emily even bought you some things Mama." Addison told her mother

JJ followed her kids into the round table room and smiled at the team talking to Emily.

"Emily could I speak to you for a moment in private please." JJ asked sternly.

Emily nodded and followed her back to her office.

"Close the door please." She asked

Emily pushed the door closed.

"Look I'm sorry…" Emily was shut up by JJ's kiss

Without hesitation Emily deepened the kiss. Emily very reluctantly pulled apart with a hiss as pain shot through her neck and chest.

"I'm so sorry Emily." A shocked JJ apologies

Taking the worried blondes hand Emily led her across to her office settee and sat her down. Emily positioned herself in front of JJ crouching down she grabbed her Right arm and leaned in for a kiss. They kissed gently for what seemed like hours, finally pulling apart both women grinning.

"Thank you for looking after my children and me so well. Would you like to go on a date with me tomorrow night?" JJ asked the grinning brunette.

"I would love to Jennifer. You have a great little emerald dress that I bought for you that would look amazing on you for the date." Smirked Emily

"Oh! Really what else did you buy me?" Asked a curious blonde with a cheeky little smirk on her face.

"Just a few things, like the kids." Smiled Emily

Her office phone interrupted with its shrill tome

"Jareau."

"Thanks Hotch, I will see you in the morning." JJ replied as she ended the call

"Come on guys home time" announced JJ

" come with us Jennifer, I will bring you to work in the morning, if you get called out you can take my car and we will take the bus to pick it up." Asked Emily.

"Ok." Smiled JJ

EJ

After a stop at the ice cream parlour they had returned back to the Condo. Emily sat playing the game of life with the children why JJ showered and changed.

"Emily! Can you come up here please." JJ shouted from her bedroom

Emily walked upstairs and knocked on JJ's bedroom door and walked in

"You have been a naughty girl." She smiled "I had 20 bags of clothes and other things. Thank you so much." JJ thanked her from the bottom of her heart

"I do need your help though, what do you think of this?" JJ shrugged her dressing gown from her shoulders

"Do you think these would be appropriate under my dress for tomorrow night?" Smirked JJ

Emily just looked at JJ stood in a emerald green stocking and suspenders with matching bra and panties.

"Yes." Is all she can manage.

JJ strolls over and places a chaste kiss onto the stunned brunette's lips and walks back into the bathroom to change.

Emily finally moves and walks back down to the kids a huge smile on her face looking forward to tomorrow nights date. She had arranged to go to her mothers house as she had security and had volunteered to look after Henry and Addison after Emily explained what had happened to the two children. JJ had happily agreed as she was secretly worried about being attacked again.

EJ

Andrew Clark sat at his work bench with 15 jars full of his Gel accelerant watching that blonde bitches news conference. He had been unable to find her since her house burnt down, he had tried her whole teams homes without any luck. After burning Mr & Mrs Taylor alive he decided he would make Jareau come to him.

Andrew had forgotten his main target until he had burnt that Jareau alive very slowly. Rossi's aim at the news conference had worked well, but not exactly as he wanted. He had brought Jennifer Jareau to his attention. He looked on the floor at the bound and gagged blonde blue eyed escort on his work shop floor.

Concentrating hard he very carefully dropped small pieces of Rubidium into his jars. He screwed the lids onto his home made incendiary grenades. Rubidium reacts to air by spontaneously igniting being a superb trigger to his glass grenades. A bonus is it also reacts with water, it is stored in mineral oil and never handled with your bare hands.

"Time to send a message to Jennifer." Smirked an obviously deranged man

He picked the bound escort up from the floor and slung her over his shoulder and carried her into his home made burn room.

He thought to himself, I might be pathetic being a fire fighter, but I am great with my hands as Milly his Jennifer substitute can attest too he smirked thinking of their hours of love making. He secured Milly to a concrete slab spread eagled with thick leather cuffs secured to chains bolted to the floor.

"Milly, this is Jennifer. Your dying in her stead." He showed her the infamous press conference "To Supervisory Special Agent Jennifer Jareau, your hiding with your kids were you're safe from me that is totally unacceptable. Until you willingly give yourself up to me to receive your punishment this will happen Jennifer." He pans the camera up to show the three jars hanging from a frame on the ceiling.

He locked the camera in a heat resistant box with the camera focused on the blonde call girls face. His burn room had heat proof microphones and two further cameras mounted in the sides of the burn box.

With everything prepared he pressed a button under the observation window and watched the first jar fall from its mount. He watched this jar fall and smash between her spread feet. On impact the jar shattered allowing his gel concoction to spread out, the small beaker containing the Rubidium spilt its oils contents causing her cargo to ignite instantly. The flame caused the gel to ignite.

"No! Please stop Arghh!" Milly cried as her feet started to burn.

Andrew was pleased with his initial results so he released a second jar bursting between her knees.

"Arghh!" Her discomfort and continued screaming was sweet music to his ears. He released the final jar landing behind her head.

He watched intently until she died. He used his burn room fire suppression system and looked at the badly burnt corpse of Milly his Jennifer look alike.
