"Can I finally tell you what I feel?" Luke asked.
- I think so. Penelope replied.
- I really...
Luke woke up startled. The phone rang endlessly for almost 20 minutes.
- What? Luke answered nervously.
- Sorry, Luke. Said Hotch. "I did not know you were asleep."
- I'm sorry, Hotch. Luke got up from the bed.
He was all sweaty.
"Look, I'm lining up to ask you to come here now if you can, and give yourself to leave Roxie with someone." Hotch said.
"Is it about Penelope?" - He asked.
- Certainly. Hotch said. "We are not in another case now.
- I'll be going there. Luke replied.
He got up and took a cold shower. He needed. Then she put on some formal clothes and took Roxie to Sabrina, her drool.
- Hey Girl. Luke called out to Roxie. - Time to go with Sabrina.
Roxie gave a pang of sadness.
- I know. - Luke said. "I need to save Penelope."
Roxie barked in approval. She had been responsible for ending one of the many walls that Penelope had put between them.
"I'll bring it back to us." Luke said.
Hey, Rox. - Sabrina said. "Who's the most beautiful girl?"
- Thank you Sabrina. For being able to stay with her now. Luke said.
- Hard case? - She asked.
"The person I love is in danger. - He replied.
Sabrina closed her face. She was in love with Luke.
- I hope you find it. - Answered Sabrina.
- I go. Luke said.
Sabrina closed the door as Luke walked away.
Luke arrived at BAU fast enough.
- At last. Hotch spoke to the elevator and shoved Luke toward him.
"Penelope Lane?" - He asked.
"We found the primary place she was kept. - Answered Hotch.
- Was? - He asked. - She is? Luke did not dare continue.
"Not Luke. - Answered Hotch. "There were no bodies there.
"And how did you find it?" Luke asked.
- The photo you showed. - Answered Hotch. Morgan and JJ searched for empty warehouses across town and found the place.
- Was there something there? Luke asked.
"Only instruments of torture and blood." - Answered Hotch. - Penelope's blood.
Luke closed his eyes.
"So she's hurt?" Luke could feel the negative vibration.
- Most likely. - He replied. "She was tied in the picture so we know he tortured her." Maybe with the whip.
- Fucking son of a bitch. Luke said. - A thousand times cursed.
- He's going to pay Agent Alvez. Said Hotch. Deep down he wanted to kill Richard for kidnapping one of the best agents.
"The team is not coming?" Luke asked.
"Because of the circumstances and things most often found on the scene, I think you ought to be with me only." - Answered Hotch.
- What you mean? Luke asked.
"Your pictures, of your dog, of Penelope." Hotch replied. "From a visit of yours to Penelope's house at four in the morning.
She could not sleep. Luke said. - I was having nightmares.
"What kind of nightmares?" Hotch asked.
"Some nights were from a man wanting to get her while she ran off down a lonely road. Luke said. "Other times they were with her at an autopsy table.
- How long has it been going on? Hotch asked.
"Since the Reid trial where he did not get bail." Luke said. "She started having frequent nightmares, and when I answered her phone call she was screaming.
"What phone calls?" Hotch asked. "Did she call you during the nightmares?"
Luke was worried.
- What you mean? Luke was frightened when he finally realized. "If it was not her call, was the pursuer making those calls?"
"Richard was in jail then. - Said Hotch. "I did a little search for the jail records.
- A partner? Luke asked.
"I showed Richard's photo to the cleaning lady she did not recognize in the photo. Said Hotch. - If he has a partner or partners who are loyal to him they should be active right now.
Luke and Hotch arrived. Luke felt a sadness when he saw the place where Penelope was tied. He saw the whip covered with blood. They found the photo box where there were pictures of Luke and Penelope. He saw the photos of Roxie with the pet sitter.
"I do not know how he got this picture." Luke said. - It's the team photo after you left.
"This girl is your Roxie's nanny?" Hotch asked the picture of Sabrina.
"Yes," Luke said. - Her name is Sabrina WestLake. I found her on the advice of a friend.
"Call her and send her to UAC." Said Hotch. "And have her take Roxie with you." This guy wants revenge on you and Penelope so he'll do anything.
- You think I'm a target? Luke asked.
"He probably sees you as a prize to her." Said Hotch. "This picture box written" Garbage "is full of photos of her with Morgan. He probably knows Derek would not be able to help her by being a civilian.
- Son of a whore. Luke said.
- Let's find her. Said Hotch.
Penelope woke up in the prison cell. She was dressed as a prisoner. She did not even remember being arrested. She saw that she was in Levenworth.
"The worst place for an agent." Penelope thought. "They probably do not know where I am."
The prison bell rang. The cell opened and she stepped inside to join some prey.
She looked at one of them and recognized it from a complicated case of the past.
Cath Adams. She whispered. - I'm totally screwed.
Cath approached Penelope.
"So the great Penelope Garcia is in jail." She spoke to anyone who wanted to hear. "Finally some justice.
- Is this one of your games? Penelope asked.
"Did not Richard tell you?" Cath laughed.
"Are you in it together?" - She asked.
"He and I want to get back at you, sweetheart. She slapped Penelope. - Let the games begin.
