Morgan came into the room. The unsub had Genevieve's gun to her head. "Whoa!" Morgan aimed his gun at the unsub. "Put the gun down!"
The unsub glared at him. "You won't shoot me, because you know that she will die."
"Come on buddy, you don't have to do that. Just put the gun down and we can talk." Morgan told him.
Cortese signed to Ally. "Go play in the tunnels." Ally went into the closet and disappeared.
"I am going to ask you one more time to put the gun down." Morgan tried to talk the unsub down.
"She is so pretty…" The unsub ran the gun up and down Cortese's face. "Just like her mother." He smirked.
"What the hell are you talking about?" Morgan asked, confused.
"Did she not tell you? Genevieve was always very shy. My father killed her parents and she is the reason they killed him! You shouldn't have survived Genevieve!"
"Adrian?" Cortese asked.
"Hello beautiful." Adrian smiled.
"You can't take this out on her. There is no reason to; it will only get you into more trouble. Listen, I'm giving you a chance to set the gun down and forget everything that happened here. You can get help." Morgan tried once again to talk him down.
"She deserves it!" Adrian yelled. He tightened his grip around Cortese's neck.
"No she doesn't." Morgan said.
"I might as well put her out of her misery. Guess who else is looking for you Genevieve. He'll make it hurt! You know he will."
Cortese reached down slowly and took out the knife strapped onto her ankle. Morgan saw what she was doing and backed up a bit. Cortese stabbed Adrian's hand that was around her neck, took her gun back, and pointed it at him.
"Nice move." Morgan said to her.
"Thanks." Cortese gave Morgan her gun and handcuffed Adrian.
"Did you get a hold of Hotch?" Morgan asked. Cortese looked at him, confused. "When I told you to call him, is the rest of the team coming? We have to go find Ally."
Hotch burst into the room. "FBI!"
"You're a little late…" Morgan laughed and took Adrian from Cortese.
"Sorry. I got Cortese's call, but she wasn't talking… You two alright?" Hotch asked.
"Yeah, I am. Cortese seems alright too." Morgan told him. "You okay?" He asked Cortese.
Cortese looked at both Hotch and Morgan, confused. "Cortese?!" Hotch shook her a bit.
"Yo!" Morgan handed Adrian over to one of the officers. "Cortese?"
"She can't hear you!" Adrian laughed.
"What?!" Morgan placed his hand on Cortese's shoulder. "She can't hear us? Hotch, call a medic or something!"
"I'll be fine, Morgan." Cortese told him, and then looked at Hotch. "Did Ally get out alright?"
Hotch nodded. "A neighbor found her in their closet. There are secret passageways throughout the building."
"Tunnels…" Cortese smiled. She put her hand on the back of her head, and then looked at it. Blood.
