Childish beings
Here you go my lovely readers and reviewers
This should give more depth on the last chapter.
Thank you so much for all your story adds and reviews. They make my day and they inspire me to write.
Morgan looked at Garcia and saw the fear in her eyes, he quickly rushed over to her and put her in a chair, she was breathing heavily but was comforted slightly by Morgan's strong arms. Reid was concious but he needed the ventilator to help him breath. He knew he didn't have long left, every cell in his body was counting down and Reid felt hatred at Tobias for causing him this pain.
Reid lifted his hand and pointed at the pen and paper, Morgan left Garcia for a moment to give him the paper and pen. Garica was crying as she looked at her little angel in so much pain, she was so scared. She had already faced an Unsub in the past and he had almost killed her.
Garcia couldn't understand how Tobias could be back, Tobias was killed by Reid in the cemetary years ago, the evil bastard should be dead but somehow he had come back to hurt her baby more.
Reid started to write on the pad, he handed it back to Morgan, Morgan looked at the note and handed it to a surprised Garcia.
'Don't cry Penelope' the note said. The note caused a little sad laugh to come out, she sobbed through it though.
"Oh my Juniour G-man, please don't worry. You need to conserve your strength" she said as she went over to the bed and stroked his hair. Reid's eyes smiled slightly before falling into a sad mood. He began to write on another piece of paper, this one took a lot longer, he handed it to Morgan who took the note without hesitation.
'Please protect her Morgan, he'll kill her. Thanks for always protecting me and being my friend even though I annoyed you so much with statistics. Tell everyone that I'll miss them and that I love them all. Make sure my mum knows that I loved her'.
Morgan's hand was shaking as he read the note, he looked at Reid and saw how much the kid wanted to tell this all to Morgan himself with his own words but he couldn't.
"C'mon Reid. Don't you talk like that, we are going to get Tobias. It doesn't matter how he came back but we'll get him and you can be there when we do" Morgan said sternly but gently. Reid closed his eyes and then opened his eyes again, he lifted his hand to Garcia and stroked her cheek, he caught her the tear that was falling down her cheek. He then grabbed Morgan's hand and squeezed it. He looked at Morgan for a moment and for some reason Morgan knew the kid was saying goodbye. Reid's hand became limp and fell back to the bed, Reid's eyes became cold and still before the heart monitor showed he was flatlining.
"REID! NO STAY WITH US!" Morgan shouted. Morgan was pushed aside as a swarm of doctors came around Reid, they tried everything to bring him back but Reid remained lifeless on the bed.
Garcia broke down with Morgan cradling her as he had tears in his eyes, Garcia was sobbing loudly and kept praying for Reid to come back. The nurse tried to remove them from the room but they refused to leave Reid till they really had to. Morgan went over to Reid's lifeless body and just stared at him.
"Bye little brother" Morgan said with his eyes showing pain and sadness that he knew would never go away.
The rest of the team arrived a fifteen minutes after Reid had died, they all came into the room and felt broken. Hotch went over to the bed and sat down on a chair, he just stared at Reid with his eyes tearing up, Rossi went over to Morgan and Garcia and took over from Morgan. Rossi held Garcia in his arms as she cried. Emily couldn't look at his body, she ran from the room and went into the woman's bathroom. She entered one of the stalls and began to breath quicker and quicker. He was dead, her friend and brother was dead and she hadn't been there to stop it, she slid down the stool's wall and felt empty.
A small park
Reid found himself sitting in the middle of park, it seemed somewhat familiar to him but her couldn't place it. He was confused, one minute he was dying in a hospital bed where he saw a bright light and now he was here. The park was a lush green, the sky was a clear blue and there was a red swing set in front of him. He walked over to the red swing set and sat on one of the swings. He smiled as he remembered what park he was in, it was the one her used to go to as child with his mother, he remembered her pushing him on the swings. They always went to the park when she was having one of her good days.
"That son a bitch" a loud voice came. Reid whipped his head round to see a man in a made to fit suit, he had slightly curlish hair and blue eyes, the man walked a few steps before speaking again.
"He cheated" the man said a moody voice.
"What the hell are you talking about? Who cheated? Who the hell are you?" Reid said in an angry voice.
"For a supposed genius you ask a lot of questions Spencer Reid."
"I've got every right to ask questions, I'm an expert on everything living not everything dead, the last thing I remember is dying in a hospital bed" Reid said.
"You're correct with that fact, you are dead which means things have not gone my way" the man responded in a disappointed tone.
"Your way?"
"Oh yes sorry my name is Elias, I have a wager with a fellow being you might say. A simple good vs evil wager and it seems my opponent has cheated" Elias said casually as he said on the swing beside Reid. Reid sat there in shock for a moment before he lost it.
"A wager! You think my life and the lives of those innocent woman were just pawns in your little game. You prick" Reid said although he was surprised at the last few words he had used.
"Spencer Reid you may want to watch your mouth with me, considering the cirumstances its time to change my game plan. We chose you because of your history with Tobias, you two were the perfect opponents against each other so we wanted to see who won. Tell me how exactly did you die?" Elias asked curiously.
Reid was lost for words at first, this so called being had toyed with his life like a chess piece, Reid wanted so much to punch Elias but he knew that the outcome would not come out in his favour. He couldn't believe that there was an afterlife but what sickened him the most was the fact that this so called being was in it.
"I was having visions of Tobias killing women, I was recieving their injuries as well, I died from the injuries of the last victim he killed" Reid said sadly.
"A connection spell, I knew he was going to pull this. Distrustful little bastard" Elias said bitterly, it seemed he was a sore loser.
"A connection spell?."
"My opponent connected you the victims to weaken you. His name is Delos, an ancient being like me born outside of time again like me. That was against the rules."
"So your not an angel?" Reid asked curiously.
"Far from it. Angels are boring creatures with sticks up their own arses" Elias replied.
"Oh. So I guess you lost?" Reid said in a 'you lost' tone.
"Hardly, I'm sending you back to Earth. I want you to take down Tobias well to be more exact Charles, Delos chose Tobias's body but he placed the spirit of the one you feared the most during your torture. He brought Charles back to have an advantage. Now listen Spencer, your going back into your body but I'm giving you some additional gifts as an advantage" Elias said, he acted like a general planning a strategic attack in Reid's eyes.
"I died you just can't do that. I have friends who saw me die" Reid said.
"I am sending you back and you better win this wager for me" Elias said before putting his hand over Reid's heart.
Hospital room
The entire team had been sat in the room for over an hour, they wanted time to mourn Reid properly. Emily had returned shortly after her departure with puffy red eyes, Hotch immediately hugged her to comfort her. All the tubes had been removed from Reid and a sheet had been placed over him as a sign of respect.
"He won't be forgotten" Hotch said as he soothed Emily. Morgan walked over to Reid and grabbed his lifeless cold hand. Morgan was about to leave when Reid's hand suddenly gripped his hand with incredible force, Morgan jumped back and pryed the hand off, he stepped back from the bed. The entire team had jumped in shock and they all backed as a large and loud audible gasp for air came from the bed. Everyone looked at the bed in both awe and fear. Reid's hands gripped the top of the sheet and pulled it down as his body shot up and gulped in air. He looked at his hands in shock and they shook. He looked up to see the entire team looking at him in fear, his eyes looked at them with a look of happiness.
"Hey guys" Reid gasped.
