But I'll never smoke Weed with Willie Again. Or listen to country at 3 a.m. when I haven't gotten a good amount of sleep.

No, I do not own those lyrics either. Jeeze.

Gideon looked around the room. They had left to go to the Milford Police Department leaving the girls at school. They had been more useful than he could have thought. Than again, he shouldn't underestimate anyone. He still remembered being extremely skeptical before he met Reid. Now look how that had turned out.

He had already figured those girls out. Marena and Luci were the enforcers. Marena was the leader figure. She had old looking eyes making it clear she knew a lot more than she let on. Luci was second in command. Like Marena, she had a look in her eyes but hers was more tired. As if, she had seen more than she wanted but she took it all upon her. Both girls were extremely protective of Christine. Christine was their last bit of innocence left. She was bubbly and more outgoing than the other two. Gideon could almost picture them in class. The first two girls in the back of the room taking everything in while Christine laughed and conversed with anyone who'd talk to her.

Gideon had decided these girls could be trusted. The school may not have been in full cooperation because they didn't want anything leaked but the girls did not have any qualms about answering questions. While the girls were explaining the symbols, he had had Garcia search deeper to make sure they were legitimate in their theories. Everything had come up fine. They had even spoken at a conference at a police convention last year. To disprove and enlighten some forces on what were real cult symbols and what were red herrings.

Gideon nodded to Hotch who now stood before the crowd of police and detectives. Hotch looked around and cleared his throat. "Our UNSUB is smarter than we originally believed. He does intense research on the symbols he uses. He is a white male, his age ranges between his late teens to early twenties. He blends in his surroundings so he will not be seen as out of place."

Reid moved forward from the desk he had been leaning against. "He saw these girls in a fantasy like view. They were virtuous and innocent just as he wanted. On the other hand they had boyfriends and our UNSUB saw these boyfriends as a threat to their innocence."

An officer spoke up from the middle of the crowd. "So why didn't he just kill the boyfriends?"

Gideon shook his head from his chair. "The boyfriends weren't the only problem. He saw the girls letting themselves become 'corrupted'. His only way to save them was to take them. By taking them, they were his. He killed them for one of two reasons. They either outright refused him and he then saw them as whores or he could have killed them to save them."

Emily spoke up. "By killing them he could save their innocent and ensure they would be grateful to him once he died and would fall for his charms and see him as their hero."

A female detective in the front looked at the agents. "So are we looking for an ex-boyfriend? I mean is there an obvious connection to them we missed?"

Morgan shook his head. "No. The UNSUB wouldn't have entered their life and left without a fight. Even if they had restraining orders, it wouldn't be that person. No, you're looking for someone not immediately connected with these girls. He'll be a regular member of society most likely. Seems like a nice guy, maybe a little shy around women but confident most other things. He is greatly interested in symbols so we can assume he has problems expressing himself. What we do know is he will wear some kind of a symbol on his person. We do not know for sure, if it will be one of the symbols he used or not, but there will me a subtle sign. Any other questions?"

The crowd shook their heads and closed their notebooks leaving.

Emily looked around at the rest of the team. "What now?"

"Splitting time." Hotch sighed suddenly looking older. "Time to visit the families."

A/N:

This is a preview for what will be in the next chapter. Pretty much meeting the families.

Now on to the reason on why this chapter is so very short.

Tell me whether you like or not. I see how many hits this story gets. I can see you like it. Just review. It takes about 5 seconds. Like it or not take the 5 seconds.

No reviews, no new chapters. The only reason this is up is because I doubt anyone is looking at the comment about reviewing on my profile.

Anyway happy trails.
