Garcia felt tears stinging her eyes as she looked between her two best friends. Suddenly, their pulses started to rise and they started to convulse. The three adults when the run to their aid when the convulsions abruptly stopped. They started to grow.
"Oh my God they are growing!" Garcia said in awe, the three staring in shock as the kids grew through many phases in their life, teenagers, young adult when suddenly they stopped. They were normal again.
"Ughhh" Derek groaned, sitting up confused, rubbing his head. He looked down to himself, turning a bright red as he saw himself sitting in a hospital room with a random man, Reid Garcia, completely butt naked. Emily sat up, looking around, turning the same shade as Derek as she assessed the situation. She too, was butt naked in front of her best friend, Reid and a man she didn't know.
"What the hell happened?" She shrieked, scrambling under the sheets of her extremely small bed.
"And why are we in baby cot beds?" Derek complained, tucking his legs in as he copied Emily's actions.
"What happened? Don't you guys remember? You got turned into kids and now you are okay and adults again!" Garcia squealed happily.
"Kids? Oh come on Pen we aren't stupid that's impossible" Emily laughed, though she had a feeling Garcia wasn't joking.
"No I'm not joking! It's been horrible! We have had to look after two very hormonal 7 year olds, which by the way, I should praise your parents for having to put up with you guys at that age in real life because I certainly would have sent you away, and a very tearful and confused f-"Penelope froze, turning to the two doctors.
"JJ!" Reid and Dr Fehr ran out the room, Penelope following as they saw Hotch comforting a very distressed JJ. Emily and Derek ran after them, wrapped in their bed sheets, both stopping dead in the doorway.
"Oh God, JJ" The said together, Hotch standing in awe staring at the pair.
"You're normal?" He said, a small smile gracing his lips, realisation hitting him as he saw his two agents back to normal.
"Okay Hotch I need to you hold JJ down while I inject her okay?" Reid asked, walking to JJ with another needle, seeing her eye widen in panic.
"Okay, JJ come on it's okay. This is going to make you better okay?" He held her still, feeling guilty as she cried under his hold.
"One small pinch okay JJ?" Reid said slowly, injecting her with the cure and pulling back with Hotch, everyone pausing as they watch the distressed 4 year old squirm. In a matter of seconds, her pulse was rocketing and she began to grow into a small child, then a teenage, a small adult, then as if like magic. She was back to normal, and like the other two, butt naked.
"Ouch." JJ said in a raspy voice, sitting up, wincing s a shooting pain went through her arm. She squealed, noticing everyone was staring at her and she was completely naked. Covering herself up with the small covers, she looked wide eyed at everyone.
"Hi, JJ how are you feeling?" Hotch asked looking at his colleague, seeing she was panting and looked to be in pain. The cast that had been covering her right arm had shattered during the process as her arm had grew with the rest of her body.
"I- erm- my right arms hurts. I'm kinda out of breath as well" She said, trying to control her breathing but finding it hard to regulate it, feeling like she was young again when she suffered heavily with her asthma.
"What happened?" She asked confused when everyone just looked around in awe, not knowing what to make of the situation. Everyone went on to explain properly to her, as well as Derek and Emily who had only gotten the short version.
"Now, you are all going to have to stay in for a few days while we asses you. We will need to assess your flu like symptoms you all suffered with and make sure that nothing was carried on in your transition. Also JJ, I am going to need to treat you with more care as we need to control your asthma as it seems that due to having it back in your system, it's hard to determine how it is going to ask as you are now an adult again. We will check you out of the children's department and back down a level and make sure you are all in the same room and I will send Nurse Jackie to get you some robes to your size-"He turned to the other agents in the room.
"As for all of you, I suggest you all leave for a few hours. Doctor's orders" Nobody, not even Hotch, hesitated as they all slugged out of the room, heading to the hotel for a well-deserved sleep.
