Taylor's body hit the floor with a thud, Harris staring wide eyed as his partner fell. As the vial flew from his hand, Hotch, who was forever saving the day, dived forward grabbing it before it landed on the floor. He took a second to treasure the moment. They had it, they finally had it.
"Harris, is this the real cure?" Rossi asked, cuffing the man fiercely.
"Yeah, that's definitely the cure" He said defeated, knowing it was time to give up.
The officers took Harris out of the cabin to their car, taking him back to the station. The others searched the room, finding 5 others vials of the cure and placing them in an evidence back to take back hospital. They climbed into their SUV and started their way back to the hospital. Reid's phone rang and he answered putting it on speaker.
"Hey Garcia-"Garcia interrupted Reid before he could say anything else.
"Reid you guys need to get back here now"
"Garcia we have the cure we will be back in about 20 minutes"
"Just hurry okay?" She hung up before more questions could be asked, worrying the men. Hotch sped through the streets, desperate to get to the hospital in record time. They arrived and ran straight up the department where JJ, Emily and Derek were being kept. They all spotted Garcia standing outside JJ's room, her arms folded as she paced slightly.
"Garcia what happened?" Reid asked as they walked up to her.
"Emily and Derek's temperature has risen again and they are showing server flu symptoms and JJ had another seizure. I left her for 5 seconds literally to go the toilet and when I came back she was on the floor convulsing and Derek was helping Emily who was throwing up. Derek slipped on some vomit and has hit his head so he has a gash and when JJ fell out of bed she must have landed funny because she has broken her right arm. I feel so stupid I literally left for 5 seconds and everything turned upside down! This is all my fault"
"Garcia, calm down it's not your fault okay, the only people who are too blame are Taylor and Harris and they are sorted okay? Now Reid, go find Dr Fehr and give him the cure okay? They need this soon, JJ won't have long left"
"Dr Fehr is in the casting department with JJ Reid" Garcia told him. He nodded and left for the casting department, the bag with the cures in hand, Rossi following him.
"Garcia, you can come and sit with Emily and Derek with me. There is nothing we can do now until Reid and Dr Fehr have sorted the cure out."
Reid and Rossi found Dr Fehr wheeling JJ out of casting on her bed, JJ crying in her bed.
"Dr Fehr we have the cure!" Reid exclaimed, running up to the doctor. Rossi took JJ's hand, trying to sooth the girl. He felt how hot she was, sighing as his hand touched her scolding forehead.
"You're sure it's the real thing?" He asked, inspecting the bag in Reid's hand.
"Positive.
"Nurse Jackie, take JJ back to her room with this agent. We will go and sort the cure out for the three patients" She nodded and wheeled JJ's bed back to her room with Rossi, Rossi collecting Hotch from Emily and Derek's room knowing he will be able to sooth her the best right now.
"Hot'h!" JJ exclaimed, seeing him walk into the room. Seeing him immediately soothed her, she knew everything would be okay as long as he was there. That's how her brain had developed throughout the situation, every time Hotch was there it always seemed okay, so she had developed a bond with this thought.
"Hi JJ" He smiled, walking to her and taking her sweaty, small hand in his. It was going to be okay, she was going to be okay.
Dr Fehr and Reid entered Emily and Derek's room, seeing they were sitting up in their beds, Garcia playing with Emily's hair as they all sat talking.
"Is it ready?" Garcia asked hopefully, seeing Reid and the Doctor with two needles full with a dark pink liquid.
"Ready as it will ever be" Dr Fehr said, walking to Emily while Reid walked to Derek. Everyone sat in anticipation as the pair counted from 3, on 1 injecting the two kid agents with the cure. The world stopped in its orbit as everyone sat, looking around expectantly.
Nothing happened.
