The Angels
Disclaimer: I am forced to admit that Criminal Minds doesn't belong to me, damn it. It's CBS.
Summary: Emily, JJ and Garcia are private investigators who work for Jason Gideon's firm The Angels. What happens when they are forced to face off with an angry ex-Angel?
Timeline: No set timeline but after "100" and there was no Doyle drama, Seaver's doesn't exist.
A/N: This came to me after re-watching Charlies' Angels 2.
Thanks to: I luv emily prentiss 2012 and DerekMorgansGirlForever.
Elle walked over to the window and glared out at the city she once called home.
'They thought that I wasn't good enough to trust.' Elle thought 'And just replaced me?'
"They're the ones that can't be trusted." Elle muttered and turned around when her guards entered.
"We dropped the body off on their lawn." The man said.
"Good." Elle said turning her back to the man "Go back there and take these guys."
Elle handed the guard the photo and said "Go."
Elle looked back out at the city "Come and get me Angels."
Elle thought back at the brunette with JJ "They replaced me with her!"
'She'll be the last to go.' Elle thought 'I am irreplaceable.'
"No one can replace Elle Greenaway!" she shouted.
Elle walked out her new penthouse with a plan in mind 'They'll all pay.'
Emily sat next to Hotch on the couch watching her friends shake their head in denial.
"How could we have not seen this coming?" Morgan said "I knew she was troubled but to..."
"She's not the Elle we know anymore." Reid said.
"Well how do we find her?" Kevin asked.
"You don't." Emily said causing everyone to look at her.
"Em." JJ said "We have to find her and get the flash drive."
"No, you'll all be on her radar." Emily said "She doesn't know me."
"What are you saying?" Hotch asked "Are you going to bait her by using yourself?"
"Yes." Emily said "But this has to done the right way."
Morgan looked over at the security feed. "We got a body on our lawn."
They all went to the front lawn to see the body of Erin Strauss.
"We need to find her now." Hotch said "Whatever you were planning can't be done if she took out her own boss."
The phone rang and they went back into answer it.
"Angels, it seems Elle Greenaway is the assassin behind..." Gideon said.
"We know that." Hotch cut his boss off "She just dropped Strauss' corpse on the lawn."
"Alright." Gideon said "Angels, I tracked a penthouse down that was Strauss and I want you to go there and find out what you can."
Emily, JJ and Garcia nodded and left after getting the address.
"Don't forget your weapons!" Hotch said as the door closed.
Emily, JJ and Garcia got into their car and drove over to the hideaway.
"Hotch, you take Morgan and Dave to see a cop friend of ours. He's sensitive to our problem. He'll give you info on Strauss, Foyet and Anderson." Gideon told the three men.
"Ok." Hotch said as he left with Morgan and Dave to head out on their mission.
Emily, JJ and Garcia walked up to Strauss/ Elle's penthouse.
As Emily opened the door, she heard a click of a gun and grabbed JJ and Garcia's wrist pulling them down with her.
After the gun went off three times leaving bullet holes behind the girls, the sound of high heeled boots clicking across the ground caused Emily to look up.
"Hello, Angels." Elle said pointing her gun at the girls heads "Stand up, Emily."
Emily released JJ and Garcia's arms and got up.
"You too, JJ, Garcia." Elle said causing the two blondes to look up.
JJ and Garcia stood up and didn't recognized this Elle in front of them.
"Elle?" Garcia said "Why? What happened to you?"
"Why be an Angel when I can be God." Elle said.
"This isn't you, Elle." Garcia said.
"Yeah well being shot in your home can change a girl." Elle said "Makes her new and improved."
"Doesn't look so new and improved to me, bitch." Emily said.
Elle gave her a look and clapped her hands and said "Very well done, I'm impressed."
Elle walked over to her leaning in and whispered to Emily.
"Well look at you." Elle said "You must be the Angel with the bad ass sarcastic attitude."
Elle stepped back from her and said "Yeah that use to be me."
Emily looked at Elle with disgust and said "I am nothing like you."
Elle gave her a knowing smirk "Yeah, sure. Say that when you've been shot in your own home."
Elle pointed her gun at the girls and said "You know when I was an Angel, we didn't get bullet proof vests."
JJ said "Elle, that wasn't our fault. You were sent home because you fell asleep at the office."
"No need to go over the details, JJ." Elle said "I lived through it."
"Then why are you doing this?" Garcia asked.
"The same reason any criminal mastermind goes into business for themselves." Elle said "Money, power, the chance to be your own boss."
Emily looked at her and scoffed "Well your boss sucks."
Elle looked over at the three in sync with each others movements and said "You know I never got that whole partner thing."
"Because you think no one had your back. Now you trust no one." JJ said "You use to trust us."
"Why trust anyone?" Elle said clicking the safety off the gun "You know I'm really going to enjoy knocking those Halos off your heads."
Emily, JJ and Garcia banded together into a fighting stance.
"Aw, the kick ass pose." Elle said "I got to say if I still believed in it I'd feel a twinge of nostalgia."
Elle said "But that's why I'm not an Angel anymore because I use guns."
Elle opened fire shooting the three in the chest and watched them fall to the floor.
Elle walked over the three girls and said "Sorry, Angels."
Elle walked out of the penthouse to head out to her next location smirking.
"And us?" Kevin asked Gideon.
"Stay here and ..." Gideon was cut off by the sound of a gun shot.
Reid and Kevin looked up to see Elle Greenaway holding a gun on them with two bodyguards standing next to her.
Reid went to open his mouth when Elle gave the guard a look and they covered Kevin and Reid's mouth with duct tape dragging them out of the room.
"Reid? Kevin?" Gideon said "Are you alright?"
"Oh, I think they are far from alright." Elle said into the speaker phone.
"Elle is that you?" Gideon said.
"Good evening, Gideon." Elle said looking around the office "I see alot hasn't changed."
"Elle? What have you done?" Gideon asked sending out a mass text to the Angels and the men.
"I've done alot." Elle said.
"Where are the Angels?" Gideon asked.
"Oh, I'm sure there's three more where they came from." Elle said picking up and looking at the picture of the Angels with their guys.
Elle tossed it on the ground stepping on the picture.
"You shouldn't worry Gideon." Elle said going to sit at the desk "Besides you never had trouble finding someone willing to give their life for you."
"Elle..." Gideon "Hurting the Angels doesn't prove you're the best. You know that."
"Do I?" Elle said.
"Elle, you were never able to understand that this firm is about teamwork." Gideon said.
Elle mouthed along with Gideon as he said "We're a family."
"We..." Gideon said but was cut off by Elle.
"Yeah yeah yeah, I know." Elle said. "Angels forever. I heard the sales pitch, it was very seductive."
Elle got up and walked over to the photos of all the former Angels and said "Once."
"Elle, you deliberately went rogue on the Lee case and put the agency and the Angels in danger." Gideon said.
Elle glared at the phone as Gideon spoke "By the time we got to your apartment, you were badly wounded we thought we lost you."
"You did lose me." Elle said "You see being an Angel wasn't fulfilling my destiny, it was keeping me from it."
Elle walked over to the door and Gideon said "You're destiny has yet to be written, Elle. Don't do this."
"There must be something in you that's still good." Gideon said causing Elle to turn around.
Elle pointed the gun at the phone and said "I was never good, I was great."
Elle shot the phone and walked out to her van with Reid and Kevin tied up in the back.
