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.


Emily gasped as she lurched up opening her shirt, as JJ and Garcia did too.

"God." Emily said "What a bitch!"

Emily pulled the bullet out of her bullet proof vest.

"Glad she didn't shoot us in the head like she did with Strauss." Garcia joked.

The three girls got up and walked over to their BMW, as JJ hit the lock on her key chain the car blew up.

"Well I guess Elle's trying to kill us." Emily said.


Hotch, Morgan and Dave returned back to their agency to see the broken picture on their floor, and the phone shot up.

"Reid! Kevin?" Hotch called out as Morgan and Dave went around checking the rooms.

"Their not here!" Morgan said picking up his phone to dial their cell phone.

"Went straight to voice mail." Morgan said slamming the phone on the desk.

"We should..." Hotch said but was interrupted by the girls walking in disheveled and dirty.

"Dave?" JJ said when he ran over to her "Can you pay the cabbie?"

Dave shook his head and went out to the cab.

"What happened?" Hotch asked.

"Elle!" Emily growled "Bitch shot us and blew up our car."

"Are you alright?" Dave asked when he came back in.

"Do we look alright?" JJ muttered.

"What happened here?" Garcia asked looking around the room.

"I don't know." Hotch said "We found it like this."

"Where are Reid and Kevin?" Emily asked sitting on the couch.

"I think they're missing..." Morgan said but was interrupted by Emily's cell phone ringing.


"Hello?" Emily answered her phone than put it on speaker.

"Angels?" Gideon said "Are you alright?"

"No." Garcia said "Two of our guys are missing, we've been shot at and had our car blown up by Elle."

"I think that's everything." JJ said picking up the broken photo of the Angels with their guys.

"Yes, Angels." Gideon said "I heard Elle while I was on the phone with the boys."

"I need you, Garcia to trace the boys cell phone." Gideon said.

"She could of already dumped them." Garcia said going to the computer and tracing it.

"Try." Emily said walking behind her.

Garcia got to work on the computer and said "There at the Stanton Warehouse."

"Garcia, you stay behind with Morgan and keep the team updated on the movements." Gideon said.

"No" Garcia said causing everyone to look at her "We're Angels, and Angels go together."

JJ and Emily looked at each other and said "She's right."

"Morgan, Dave and Hotch than will stay behind and keep the girls informed." Gideon said.

Hotch was about to protest when Emily kissed him and said "Trust us."

Emily, JJ and Garcia walked out of the agency and left in the boys car.


"Elle?" Reid said "Don't do this."

"Aw, come on Reid." Elle said patting his cheek "You'll like working for me. I won't kill you and you don't want to be sold along with him over here."

Elle pointed her gun at Kevin and said "Nothing personal, kid. Unless you want to join your little blonde Angel in Heaven."

"Looks like your wrong again. Elle." Emily said "You can't do anything right."

Elle threw off her coat and Kevin spotted the flash drive in her coat he tilted his head to Reid and told him to go for it.

Reid seeing that Elle had her back to him reached his hand across and grabbed it.

"What do you plan to do with the flash drive, Elle?" Emily asked distracting the angry brunette.

"Sell it to the highest bidder, and finance myself to finding Gideon." Elle said looking Emily in the eye.

"Why?" Emily asked watching as JJ snuck off to the left to untie the guys.

"So I can put two in his head myself." Elle said "You know when I was an Angel we didn't get bullet proof vests."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. We know before the Lee case." Emily said.


Elle charged at Emily grabbing her and punching her in the face, but Emily grabbed Elle's hair and flipped her over her shoulder.

Emily saw Garcia headed to her but she yelled out "Go to JJ!"

Garcia went over to JJ and helped her pick the locks on the guys hand cuffs.

Elle lying on the floor kicked Emily in the stomach and pulled her down to the ground as Elle got up.

Emily scratched Elle on the cheek causing Elle to yelp, and Emily grabbed her by the throat cutting off her air supply.

Elle reached out for a wooden plank to hit Emily when JJ hit Elle on the back of the head with the butt of her gun.

Elle fell off of Emily and grabbed JJ's leg, causing Emily to get up and kick her in the stomach and reaching down to grab her wrist.

Elle scratches Emily's hand and kicks her leg out from under her, reaching over she grabs the gun and ends up kicked in the face by JJ.

JJ sees Elle fall face first into the floor, helps Emily up and walks over to get the cuffs from Garcia.


Emily turns around to see Elle charging at her and both girls hit the mirrored wall causing the glass to break cutting up them and both bleed.

Emily reaches over to elbow Elle in the stomach and punch her in the nose causing Elle to groan.

"Bitch, you broke my nose." Elle said grabbing her nose with one hand.

"Good." Emily said as JJ kicked the gun over to her but it landed at Elle's foot.

Both girls look at it and grab for it, Elle gets it and Emily picks up a shard of glass.

"Thanks JJ." Elle said shooting the blonde in the shoulder, shooting Reid in the chest and turned to shoot Garcia.

"No!" Emily said throwing the big shard of glass.

The glass hit Elle in the neck, causing her to drop the gun to grab her neck which was bleeding.

Emily picked up the gun and saw Elle charge for her while holding her neck.

Emily shot her in the shoulder and Elle fell to the floor, gasping for breath.


"Call an ambulance!" Garcia told Kevin who ran over to Reid while she ran to JJ "Now!"

"Damn it." JJ said "Shot twice in one day by the same girl. How's Reid?"

Garcia looked over at Kevin who had tears in his eyes and shook his head who said "He's gone."

Emily, JJ and Garcia sobbed, while Elle's eyes widen in surprise.

Emily walked over to Elle and glared at her.

"Do it, Emily." Elle said emotionless "Kill me."

"No." Emily said "I'm not you."

"You know nothing then, this is all the job is." Elle said gasping for air "Everyone is expendable even you."

Emily looked down at her and said "I do know something and that is you're going to die."

Elle smiled and said "Do it. Become like me. I know how it is with Gideon, he messes up your mind."

"Nope." Emily said "My minds clear."

Emily bent down to Elle and said "I'm nothing like you. Killing you is too easy. I want you to die slow. I want you to die everyday for the rest of your life."

Emily stood up and backed away from her with the gun on Elle and sat down on the ground looking at her.

The sound of sirens coming in made Elle look up at the ceiling and she shut her eyes.


The cops wheeled Elle out hands cuffed on a stretcher as Hotch, Morgan and Dave walked in.

Hotch exchanged a look with Elle who said "Your just as responsible for this, as Gideon is."

Hotch walked passed her with Dave and Morgan following behind.

Hotch saw Emily holding Reid's body sobbing.

Morgan ran up and said "No!"

Dave looked over at JJ on the stretcher getting bandaged up from her gun shot wound with tears in her eyes.

"She took Spence away from us." JJ said "She took my Spence."

Hotch went over to Emily and said lightly "Let him go."

Emily shook her head and said "No."

Garcia with Kevin holding her hand walked over to Emily and said "Let them take care of Reid."


Kevin handed Hotch the flash drive and said "Reid, he uh... got it."

Garcia smiled at that and said "My boy genius."

Emily let the EMT take Reid's body to bag him up as Emily sobbed into Hotch's shoulder.

"It should of been me." Emily whispered "I should of protected him."

"She did it because she knew that it would hurt you three. If she couldn't get you, she'd take the one that meant the most to you." Hotch said.

Emily walked out of the warehouse and looked in the ambulance to see Elle looking off into space with no emotions on her face.

"I'm not you, Elle." Emily whispered "I would never have done that to Reid. And I will never be you."


Emily and Hotch held hands as they watched the minister say his comforting words about Reid.

Garcia standing between Morgan and Kevin holding onto their hands while she leaned her head on Kevin's shoulder.

JJ sat their with her arm in a sling still recovering from her bullet wound looked down at the coffin of her Spence and sobbed as Dave bent down to kiss her forehead.

Unaware to the team Gideon stood back leaning against the tree watching over his precious treasures and wept for the boy he loved like a son.

"I'm so sorry my Angels." Gideon said "I promise you that nothing like this will ever happen again."

Gideon walked off and vowed to himself to make sure all his Angels will never go down Elle Greenaway's road, no matter what.

And that no one would ever forget the sacrifice it cost, at the expense of Spencer Reid.
