Sorry that the chapters are so short, I just wanted to get the chapters up and it seemed better short. Enjoy! Disclaimer: I do not own Flashpoint or Criminal Minds or anything related to it.


Everyone left the room to find the Unsub. Sam and JJ were still in the room and walked up to each other.

"Does this profile really work?" Sam asked her.

"Yeah," she replied. "You're with the SRU. You should know about human behavior."

"We do but we don't delve that deep into someone's mind like that. How do you do it?"

"It's not a job for the weak. I have my family and my team. It's who I am."

"I'm glad they have you," Sam said grabbing her hand. JJ smiled sweetly at him, squeezing his hand back. Hotch was secretly watching them, he had a feeling that Sam and JJ had a connection and this confirmed his profiling skills.

"Jenny," Sam said. "I'm sorry about what happened to your sister. She was a great girl."

"I know," JJ grabbed the necklace on her neck, it belonged to her sister. "Let's go find this guy."

She let go of his hand and walked out of the briefing room. She saw Hotch standing nearby, giving her the infamous Hotch stare.

"You know him, don't you?" Hotch asked her, which sounded more of a demand rather than a question.


After everyone left, Garcia called Morgan and Hotch over to the desk. Hotch was looking at JJ and Sam while listening to Garcia and Morgan. Morgan was leaning over the desk to hear what Garcia had to say.

"With this vic, I've able to tie some strings together. His name is Tim Hankel. I dug up his dirt, pun intended, and found out that he recently sold his land. Nick Mitchell subcontracted that land to develop and the tools that were used to buy the sawing supplies for the land were from Rob Harris' hardware store."

"Anything else?" Hotch asked.

"Yeah," Winnie pepped up. "The environmental activist group, Olive Branch, was seen in the park when the first body was discovered. They were protesting about the development on the land that Tim Hankel was selling."

"Excellent job ladies," Morgan smiled. "Hotch, we might have a lead here."

"Okay," Hotch said. "I'll get JJ and Scarlatti to check it out. Scarlatti?" Hotch called out for Spike and he responded.

"Spike," Spike corrected him.

"I want you and Agent Jareau to go to Olive Branch, an environmental-"

"I know what it is. The environmental activist group. We talked to them before."

Hotch noticed Spike's hostality but nodded as JJ and Sam walked out of the briefing room. He walked up to JJ.

"You know him, don't you?" Hotch asked her, which sounded more of a demand rather than a question.

"He dated my sister. Couple months later, she killed herself. I know him, but haven't had contact with him since then."

"You know you should have told me."

"I know, it's just that I haven't talked to him in years so I didn't see the reason to tell."

"You're uncomfortable around him. Is there anything I need to know?"

"I just look like my sister, that's all."

"Okay. I want you to go with Scarlatti to talk to an environmental activist gorup called Olive Branch."

"Okay Hotch," she walked away and called to Spike. "Scarlatti?"

"Yeah," Spike walked over to JJ. "You can call me Spike."

"Okay Spike, Hotch wants us to go to an environmental activist group called Olive Branch."

"I know he told me. Let's go." The two went to the garage and got into one of the SUVs. Spike drove and when he drove it brought back memories. His mind went back to the day Lew died. He remembered this group when the bombs went off and they talked to the leader, John Martins. They were going to talk to him. Did this guy move up to murder? They got to the location and went inside the building.

"You need a warrant," the man at the front desk said.

"We don't need a warrant to walk through a public door," Spike said.

"You need to leave now," the man was hysterical. Coming out from the commotion, John Martins came out.

"It's okay Toby," he said patting Toby's shoulder. "I've got this." Toby went back to his desk, which was a couple of feet away. John asked, "What do you want?"

"I'm Constable Scarlatti, this is SSA Jareau from the FBI. We'd like to ask you a couple of questions."

"If it's about our protest in the park, we weren't hurting anyone."

"That day you were there," JJ said, "a murder was there. Do you think it's a coincidence that you go to a place where a crime was just committed?"

"We were given an anonymous tip that someone with the Hankel development was murdered. We wanted the press to know how we felt."

"And this anonymous tip," Spike said. "Was it possible you knew the caller?"

"NO. We aren't for violence. We want the people destroying the environment to stop, so we all went to the park that day."

"We'd like a list of your members here," JJ asked.

"Sorry but if you want that list, you need a warrant. Now please leave."

JJ and Spike were forced to leave, but Spike wasn't leaving as JJ was at the door. "Spike?" she called but he didn't respond to her.

"If you're hiding something you can be charged with accessory to murder."

"I'm not hiding anything, I'm just exercising my rights."

Spike stormed out of the door and JJ followed. They got back to the SUV and sat down in the car. Spike was trying to calm himself down by breathing sniper breathing.

"Are you okay Spike?" she asked.

"Yeah I'm fine," he answered. Let's get back to SRU. They started to drive. "That's the second time we've dealt with them."

"What happened the first time?"

"Bombs were planted over the city that were associated with people destroying the environment. Even though they were never part of the bombing, my friend died that day trying to defuse the last bomb."

"It went off? He didn't defuse it on time?"

"He did but he stepped on a landmine before defusing it and when I took the bomb out, he stepped off it and..." he stopped. "I tried to save him but he thought that if I tried, we'd both go down. I didn't see him die but I heard him say to me that it was going to be okay. He let go and I heard the mine go off."

"I'm so sorry."


They got back to the SRU and told Hotch and Ed what had happened.

"I think we need the big guns," JJ hinted as she looked at Garcia.

"Oracle here and ready," Garcia said. Spike walked over to the desk.

"We need the list of members at the Olive Branch," Spike said.

"Lists are my specialty, Italian-Sweetness. Alright," Garcia started typing away. "Basic encryption... You know I was born green but I'm for the Peace Green." Garcia fingers ran across the keyboard, Spike was in awe at her skills. She's better than me, he thought.

"Got it," Garcia said as she found the list of members of the Olive Branch.

"Can you cross that list with witness statements?" Ed asked her.

"You should've asked that sixty seconds ago, hon. Got one name: Toby Tucker, thirty-one years old."

"Toby," Spike said out loud. "D'ya have a picture of him?"

"You doubt?" Spike went around the desk and saw this Toby's face on the screen.

"That's him!" Spike exclaimed. "He was at the Olive Branch when Jareau and I went there to talk to Martins!" JJ went around the desk and saw the picture too.

"Yeah," she said. "That IS the guy."

"Garcia what do you have on Tucker?" Ed asked her in his leadership voice.

"Works at the Olive Branch as a clerk. Been with the company for over two years now. It looks like he had a bunch of land," the computer started to beep which wasn't a good sign. "Oh, it was sold to a large developing company to make a new mall." she continued to type and found more dirt on Tucker. "Double whammy, Tim Hankel was a neighbour of Tucker's and Hankel sold the land for $500,000. And as I dig more, triple whammy, Mitchell was the subcontractor for that development and Harris sold the tools to the company."

"What about the first two vics in Buffalo?" Jules asked.

"Ugh," Garcia typed some more. "Those vics were in Toronto, but moved to Buffalo. They were also part of the development."

"So that explains why he first killed in Buffalo then here," Raf said.

"To get to the people responsible for taking his land," Sam finished off.

"Garcia we need an address," Hotch ordered her.

"28 Elgin Street, which is right near Queen's Park."

"Let's go," Hotch said as his team and the SRU went to the garage. "Garcia feed us on the fly. They geared up, the SRU putting on their specialized vests and other toys and the BAU putting on standard FBI vests. The BAU even put on the SRU's transmitters so they all had one set of ears. They fit into three black SUVs as the doors of the garage opened and the vehicles sped out of the SRU. The two teams sped across the Toronto streets, going to bring in Tucker. Two SUVs, with Ed, Raf, Rossi and Morgan in one, and Hotch, Sam, Jules and Spike in the other, went to Tucker's address. The last SUV, having Reid and Sarge, went to Olive Branch.

"Okay, crime fighters, this is what I've got on Tucker," Garcia said in their ears. "He didn't go to school but lived on a farm most of his life with his father. Mom died at child birth. Wait, I've got ER visits. Little Toby had bruising all over his body and docs assumed that he was being sexually abused by his father. Foster care came to the house but he wasn't taken away. He was only forum years old. Dad lost the land when Toby was five and it looks like there isn't any history for another two years. Then he was found by some drivers and he was a mess. Appaently, he was living in the woods for two years, and only coming out to get scraps of food in garbages. He was brought in and put into foster care until he was eighteen. He went to college for logging and got a job but was fired a couple of months ago for, what says here, inappropriate sexual behaviour."

"My guess having sex with the cut trees," Reid said. Everyone was in shock to hear something like that come out of the innocent-looking agent.

"Yes Doctor as gross as that sounds," Garcia said. "Continuing. Anyway, Toby got fired and he quit everything, like literally. No bank account, no credit cards, no payments. Only a birth certificate and passport, other than that he doesn't exist on paper."

"So getting fired from his job must have been the stressor," Morgan said. "That's when the killings started."

"And when he was in the woods for two years," Reid said. "His love map was broken. Being surrounded by trees was all he knew and thought to be normal."

"BAU's lucky to have you, kid," Sarge said to Reid.

"I don't believe in luck," Reid said. "But thank you sir." Sarge smiled the same smile like when Spike goes on about some new tech toy.


Thank you for your patience. New chapter hopefully coming up soon!
