Ch.5

The lab guy comes over to JJ and Hotch hands them a piece of paper then walks away. Reid, Prentiss, and Rossi look at it.

"Whats that?" Hotch asks

"Morgans results from the bomb. They found finger prints on it you have got to see this." JJ hands Hotch the piece of paper he takes it and scans it.

"Their Officer Marks. We need to search his office."

Hotchs phone rings, he answers it listens to the other end, then hangs up. He turns to the team.

"That was the hospital Morgans awake. Reid I want you to go talk to him. The rest of us are going to stay here and search Marks office."


Reid walks into the room and sees Morgan asleep. He sits down in the chair next to the bed. Morgan rolls his head over and opens his eyes.

"Hey Derek how are you feeling?" Reid says in a concerned tone.

"Like I have a huge headache."

"Do you remember what happened?"

"I was walking with Garcia to the SUV, I felt someone something hit my head, and then I blank out."

"Did you see anyone?"

Morgan shakes his head, looks around, and closes his eyes.

"Someone took her. Didn't they Bro?" he opens his eyes while tears streams down his cheek.

Reid nods his head "We are trying to find her you know that."

"I know. What have you found out?"

"There were prints on the bomb. They were chief Marks and the rest of the teams searching his office. They will call us when they find something."

Morgan closes his eyes as more tears run down his face. Reid reaches over and grabs a tissue holding it out to Morgan.

"Its going to be okay man." Reid says trying to comfort him.

Morgan opens his eyes and looks at Reid.

"You know before we got called on this case we had finally finished the babies room." more tears run down Morgans face as he grabs the tissue a wipes them away.

"I love those two so much its hard to even begin to explain. I just want them back."


Hotch, JJ, Prentiss, and Rossi enter chief Marks office turn the light on and split up. Hotch goes straight to his desk and starts opening drawers.

"Whats this?" Hotch says reaching into his desk pulling out a metal box with a lock on it. JJ walks up behind him looking at it.

"Where's the key?" Rossi says while flipping over artwork he takes a picture of the wall and flips it over to revel a key taped to the back.

"That was easy." Rossi says while taking the key off and handing it to Hotch. Prentiss steps closer as Hotch take the key, puts it in the lock, and opens the metal box.

"Oh boy."

Prentiss turns around and starts going through a stack of files . While Hotch reaches into the metal box pulling out newspaper clippings with titles Agent Morgan finds the killer, Agent Morgan catches the bad guy, and he does it again. Hotch picks the box up turns it over and lets a pile of pictures fall out. Rossi picks up a folded up piece of paper and opens it. He reads it then hands it to Hotch Mrs. Derek Morgan was wrote on it multiple times in girly handwriting. They pass the note around to Prentiss and JJ.

"Looks like someone has fallen for Morgan."says JJ

"Yea, but why take Garcia? Why not just take him?" says Rossi.

"Cause it makes more sense to get rid of the two things that mean the most to him." says Hotch.

"Then she can have Morgan to herself." JJ adds.

"Guys I think this whole case was a trick to get us to come her." says Prentiss turning around hold a file in her hand.

"What makes you say that?"

"This file has a layout of how to make this case seem real."

"Why do you guys have my box?" Seaver runs into the room and picks up the stuff that Hotch had just dumped out of the box put it back in. Hotch grabs her hand.

"Agent Seaver is this your stuff?" Hotch asks

She nods her hand Hotch reaches behind him grabs handcuffs.

"Your going to have to answer some questions for us."
