Capter3

~ Atlanta, Georgia, scene of the first victims ~

The team has just arrived on the scene and they're meeting the sheriff of Atlanta and all are worried about Reid.

"Hello, Agent Hotchener I'm Sheriff Wood" the sheriff said

"Hello, Sheriff this is special agent Gideon, Special agent Greenaway, Special agent Morgan and Dr. Reid." Hotch said introducing the team.

"Hello, Dr. Reid" the sheriff said going in to shake Gideon's hand.

"I'm not Dr. Reid. He is. Gideon said pointing towards Reid.

"Oh, I'm so sorry. I didn't realise…." He started to apologise.

It's alright I get it all the time" Reid said but quickly slipped into another world thinking about what his father really did want because he knew for a fact that he didn't just want to "get back in touch" if he wanted that he would've done it a long time ago. When he was struggling to keep his schizophrenic mother out of harm's way and trying to juggle bullies and collage every day of his life. Why didn't he come back then! Also what was he going to write in his letter to his mother today.

"Reid" Morgan said snapping him out of his world "we're going inside to look at the apartment"

"Ok" Reid said following Morgan and Elle into the building. They looked around the apartment looking for any signs of evidence on why the UNSUB chose this family and the others as well.

"Everything seems normal enough. Single mom takes her kids to the park one sunny day and never comes back to the apartment, few days later they turn up in a dumpster." Morgan observed

"And what part of that is normal to you?" Elle asked sarcastically

"Well you know what I mean the first part is. What do you think Reid?" Morgan asked Reid who was now looking at the photos on the fridge.

"I don't know? I'm trying to think about why the UNSUB chose Families like this, I mean I get that the family is vulnerable, single mom, two small kids, it's not uncommon but why would he dump the bodies in the dumpster at their building it just doesn't make sense" Reid said puzzled

The killer's home

My son is asleep he's taken his mother's leaving pretty hard. For some reason he blames me for it. My baby girl is crying in my arms even she knows there's something wrong ,she needs her mother. I put her in her cot and pull the blanket over her so she won't be cold. She stops crying after a minuet.

A small boy is on the floor next to his mother, dead. A man holds a crying baby in the corner looking at the two people he has just murdered. He gets up and places the baby in a baby basket and smothers it with a blanket until it has stopped breathing. He then walks out of the house and into his car to drive to the apartment of the family he has just killed.
