New chapter! 💙 Warning: things may get touchy or sensitive. Reader's discretion is advised.


The two SUVs that were going to Toby's house made it there. Everyone got out and prepped their weapons in case the worst happened. Some SRU and FBI members went through the front while others came in from the back so as not to miss the Unsub; they used a ram to knock the door off the lock and everyone was yelling, "POLICE! SRU! FBI!" The entire place was searched but Toby Tucker was not at home.

"Clear," everyone said once every room had been searched.

"Where is he?" Ed shouted.

"Let's look around to try and find him," Hotch said. Everyone started to look in every room: Ed found phone numbers on the fridge, one for his landlord (he was renting the house) and the other was his dad; JJ found, under his bed, a box of personal belongings. They had papers that looked like diary entries. She started to read them but stopped when she learned what Toby had wrote about. She went downstairs and found Hotch and Ed discussing why someone would stay in contact with someone who hurt them; Hotch said that some people can't let go of the past.

"Hotch," JJ interrupted. "I found something." She showed him the papers and he took and read them. Ed was reading over Hotch's shoulder then turned away when he read what JJ read: it had details of his father's abuse to him, telling about fornicating with trees.

"No wonder this guy's messed up," Ed said when he got his cool back.

"We need to keep looking for a location," Hotch said. "Reid have you got anything?"


Reid and the Sarge made it to the Olive Branch. They walked through the doors and saw Martins there.

"What do you want now?" He barked at the law enforcements.

"We're looking for Toby Tucker," Sarge said.

"He's not here. He went home after work."

"We need to find him. Do you know where he is?"

"He probably went home."

"He's not there. Where else would he be?"

"Typical cops, you barge into our privacy because you think we're like terrorists. We're not hurting anyone."

"Well, we think Toby has been hurting people. We suspect him in some recent crimes."

"Why should I tell you anything? You'll twist everything I say just to make your case."

"Ugh sir," Reid perked up behind Greg. "We don't want mean any disrespect to you or your group, we just need to find Toby. We believe that he might hurt someone else soon and we really need your help. You said that your group doesn't hurt anyone, but if you don't tell us what we need people are going to get hurt, including Toby. If you are a group and do care about him, you'll tell us about him."

Martins thought about what the young agent said to him. Pondering to either say nothing to the cops or give Toby up. Toby was going to hurt someone else and Martins wasn't in to violence. He knew he had to do the right thing.

"What do you want to know?" He asked them.

"Has his usual behaviour changed recently within the last month?"

"He's become more hostile now that you say that. He arrives to work late and tries to use excuses to rationalize his actions. I honestly don't know where he is, but he likes to be alone most of the time. I mean, after his land was sold he had to move to that shack of a house. And don't ask me who bought it cause I don't know."

"Thank you," Reid said as he and Greg left the building.

"Reid, have you got anything?" Hotch said in the ear piece. Reid adjusted the transmitter in his ear because it was feeling uncomfortable.

"Hotch, Martins told us that Toby's been hostile towards people and that he's been showing up to work late."

"Hotch, Spike and I talked to Martins earlier today and Toby was there. He would've bolted when he realized that the FBI and police were involved," JJ said.

"No, Tucker's a mission-based killer," Morgan said. "He has to finish his job."

"So he's going after someone else?" Spike asked. "Anyone could be next."

"No I don't think so kid," Rossi said. "He knows we're after him so he'll go for the biggest target he can get."

"The buyer of the land," Sam said finishing off Rossi's statement (He sounded a little too enthusiastic when he said it).

"Most likely," Hotch said in his even tone. "Garcia, who bought the land to the development?"

Back at SRU, Garcia typed at the computers to answer Hotch's question. She got her answer. "Jonathan Connors. Owner of Connors' Place, a high end escort agency. He was going to build another office where Toby's home was."

"We need an address!" Spike said as he and the others hopped into the SUVs.

"Oh, Spikey" Garcia said playing. "You should've checked you inbox ten seconds ago."

"Thanks Mama," Morgan flirted back as he patted Spike's shoulder. The two teams started to drive to Connors' house when Jules made a point.

"If this is personal for Tucker wouldn't he bring Connors to a place that means something to the both of them?"

"Yeah," Sam said. "Do you think he would kill him in his own house?"

"We'll split up," Hotch ordered. "Our car will go to Tucker's old farm home with Reid and Parker. The rest will go to Connors' home address and call his work place to check if he's there."

"Yes sir," Ed said as everyone splited away to their locations. The SUV with Ed, Raf, Rossi and Morgan had a pink elephant in it. Ed was an Alpha-male and a team leader and did not liked to be talked like he wasn't. He knew he was strong but felt insecure when Hotch talked to him like a superior.

"Hey Lane," Rossi leaned in Ed's right shoulder from the back seat. "Do ya need a hug or something? What's got into you?"

"What's got me is that your boss thinks he can order me around like he does his own team."

"He's being a good leader like you, but you need to let your emotions in."

"What does that mean?" Ed snapped back.

"It means that your team feels what you feel. If you walk around feeling nothing, they will too. Don't be afraid of your heart."

"Well my team needs a leader that they can rely on, not someone to be their friend at the bad times."

"What about you?" Morgan asked. "Who do you go to when you're troubled?"

"My family."

"One day your not going to be able to tell them something. It happens to all of us, and when that day comes, feel it."

Ed sat silently and gripped the steering wheel tightly as he got a knot in his stomach. Raf sat silently during the whole conversation, absorbing what the others were saying. He was getting a knot in his stomach as well.

"Sarge," they heard Winnie through the ear piece.

"Go ahead Winnie," Sarge said.

"I called the workplace and he's not there. Connors took his lunch break and never came back from it."

"Thanks Winnie," Sarge sighed. "Eddie, you get that?"

"Copy that Boss," Ed replied.

"Toby's already got him then if he's not at home," Morgan concluded.

"Boss we're at the Connors residence," Raf informed the Sarge.

"Copy that. Let me know what you find out," Sarge said.

They got out of the SUV and knocked on the door and his wife answered.

"Mrs. Connors?" Ed asked and she nodded. "I'm Constable Lane, this is Constable Rafik. We're from the Strategic Responce Unit. These are Agents Rossi and Morgan of the Behavioural Analysis Unit of the FBI. We're looking for your husband."

"What happened, is he in trouble?" She asked.

"We need to find him ma'am," Raf said. "Do you know where he is?"

"He should be at work."

"He's not there."

"It's noon so he should be on lunch. He usually goes to the value mart around the corner of his work."

"Thank you ma'am," Ed said as the men left the front porch. "Boss, what have you got?"


The others arrived to the other location when Ed asked his sergeant his status.

"We made it here Eddie. There's a car here. Winnie," Sarge was now talking to Winnie in his headset. "Run this license plate: Bravo-Charlie-Charlie-Echo-4-6-3."

"Copy that boss," Winnie started typing at her keyboard. "Registered to Connors."

"He's in there," Sam said. "We need a tach plan."

"Winnie any plans for this place?" Spike asked.

"I can't find any plans. Sorry guys."

"We'll have to eyeball it," Sam said and being tach leader at the moment he gave the movements. "Okay Sarge, Jules and I will go through the front. Jules, cover the Boss with a shield. Boss, you negotiate with Tucker and I'll cover you," Sam said as he readied his MP5. "Spike, Hotchner, and Reid go in through the back. Spike, you're Sierra."
