Thanks for the reviews guys! Here is another chapter! (P.S. I am writing so many because I'm out of school now. -)

Derek cursed. Emily took the letter from him and sighed, "There's a bomb in the church and if even one person leaves, it'll blow up," she told the others, trying to stay calm.

"Is there a ransom?" asked Hotch as he tried to calm little Jennifer who was hungry and wanted her mommy.

"Five million by tonight," JJ said as she took the note from Emily.

"How're we going to get five million by tonight when all of us are here?" asked Reid.

"Not all of us, Rossi's at work," said Hotch, handing little Jennifer to her daddy.

Derek gave his daughter a fake smile, "Its okay, baby girl," he whispered, rocking her gently in his arms. "I know you miss mommy, we'll get her back very soon. I promise."

JJ sighed, as she watched Hotch call their boss. He gave Rossi all the details, everything that the ransom note said.

"How are we going to get five million by tonight, David?" asked Hotch in a distressed voice.

"I'll find a way," he said, "We can't lose Garcia. She's what holds us together when we've lost. I'll call you when I know something." Yes. It seemed that Rossi had grown rather fond of the blonde goddess.

Hotch smiled weakly, "Thanks Rossi," he said and hung up the phone. Hotch sighed, "He's doing all in his power to get the money so we can save her, Derek," he said, "We'll get her back."

Derek sighed and sat down, "I hope so," he said, looking down at his calming daughter. "Now, which one of you want to go tell everybody whats going on?"

The crew looked at JJ.

"Why me?" she asked, moaning. "Fiiine."

JJ made her way slowly to the church and went to the front. "I have some pretty distressing news to tell you all. I ask that you don't panic, please." She paused for a moment, then continued. "Penelope's been abducted, and the ransom note said that if anybody at all leaves the church, it'll blow. We can only leave after we give the man who took her five million dollars."

There were gasps and chatter, but they all agreed they would stay.

JJ went back to her friends, and sat down next to Derek, who was still looking nervous and upset. He wanted his goddess back. "We're going to get her back," she said in a promising tone toward Derek.

"I hope your right," he whispered, rocking the fussy baby girl in his arms.

JJ sighed, "Want me to take her for a bit?" she asked, as Derek nodded and she reached to take Jennifer.

"It'll be okay baby girl," she whispered, as she looked down at her god daughter. "I promise we'll get mommy back. She'll be safe and home to you very soon." So JJ hoped, at least.

JJ looked near tears. She wanted her best friend to be okay. She wanted this all to be over. But it had only just started.

Derek sighed, "Which one of you are volunteering to take my daughter and get out of here? I'm sure that the rest of us can take getting blown up." He didn't wait for an answer before he continued. "None of us are going to die, but we need to get her out, she's too little."

Emily looked at Derek. "Why can't we just wait?" she asked.

"Who knows what he'll do even after we get the five million to him, Em?" asked Derek.

Hotch sighed, "He's right. We have to get all the children out," thankfully there was only a few, "I'm sure we can handle it..."

Reviews? Yep. That's the end of that chapter. Hope you enjoyed.
