I really can't thank you all enough for the fantastic reviews and also those who read the story! I really wasn't expecting all that response - makes me very happy : )! One problem is that I have to make sure that I can keep up what everyone wants now! I hope I have succeeded with this second chapter. Enjoy and let me know what you think...

Chapter 2: Alone

"Right everyone let's get on with the day," Gideon said as he marched into the room. He sat down at the table with his colleagues. "Let's just pick up where we left off from yesterday," he said as they all opened the files sitting in front of them. "So yesterday …" he looked around the table and noticed they were missing someone. "Where's JJ?"

"I haven't seen her," Morgan answered.

"Me neither," Reid agreed.

"She probably slept in," Garcia concluded. "I'll go and call her." She picked up her coffee mug and left the room. Reid frowned slightly knowing that JJ never slept in, but brushed the thought to the back of his mind.

Garcia drank a mouthful of coffee as the phone kept ringing.

"Hey this is JJ I'm not home right now but feel free to leave a message or call me on my cell, ciao!"

Garcia huffed as the message sounded.

"Hey girl you know how much I hate talking to your machine! Just wanted to see why you're not here but clearly you're not at home either so…really this was a pointless message. Well wherever you are you better get your little ass in here soon – I need my JJ splash of colour in the morning to keep me going! Anyway mwah, love you!"

She hung up then called JJ's cell.

"Hi you've reached JJ's cell phone, you know how it works…"

"Seriously Jayje where are you? I refuse to leave another message so just call me when you get this!"

She hung up the phone and shook her head.

"Damn 21st century!"

"So where did we get to yesterday?" Gideon carried on.

"Well the unsub targets these women at their homes which suggests that he knows them, he doesn't feel wary of approaching them where they most likely feel the most safe," Emily suggested. "I mean there's no sign of forced entry at any of the houses."

"Or he doesn't know them but knows that they feel safe at home and so takes advantage of this," Reid contemplated. "In each case the only way it seems that the unsub could have entered was through the front door. There were no other doors or windows unlocked."

"But if they don't know him then why do they let him in willingly?" Emily questioned.

"I don't know but I had Garcia run a check to see if there are any connections between the women but we got nothing," Morgan told the team. "They all went to different schools, different doctors, different gyms… etc, etc, etc… their only similarity are their looks…young, blonde, beautiful," he finished with a sigh

"Something must have made him choose these women. There must be thousands of young blonde women in the area," Reid figured. "There is a connection between these women, the question is what?"

"Right Morgan you and I are going to find out as much as we can about victim 1, Amy Mann," Gideon ordered. "Reid and Prentiss you take Josie McDonald," Emily nodded and gathered up her stuff. "Hotch you and JJ find out about Katie Mitchell."

"Uh sir JJ's not in yet," Emily pointed out cautiously, still wary of what she said in front of the team.

"Yeah she didn't pick up her house phone or her cell, I left her messages," Garcia said as she walked back in.

"I'll just go on without her just now," Hotch decided. "Get her to phone me on my cell when she gets in," he said to Garcia.

"Your wish is my command," she said with a smile.

"Uh Garcia we're all splitting up to study the three victims so if you can be on standby for any assistance," Gideon said.

"That's what I'm here for," she said cheerily as she made her way out of the room.

"Right everyone meet back here at 4:30pm, that gives you approximately 7 hours to find out as much about these women as you can," he told the team. "Let's go, let's go!" he clapped his hands and they all left the room.

"Oh you're not going anywhere…Agent Jareau…"

"How do you know my name?" she asked as he gripped her tightly.

"I watch the news," he said gruffly, breathing on her neck.

"What have you done to those women?"

"What women?" he asked feigning ignorance.

""What have you done to them?

"I don't know what you're talking about."

"The hell you don't know what I'm talking about!" JJ said trying to struggle out of his grip.

"Oh we're quite the feisty one aren't we?" he said with a laugh that sent shivers through JJ's body.

"My team will find you," she said trying to stay strong. "They're the best out there."

"Oh they can try. They can try all they want, but you - you're alone now," he hissed before wrapping a gag round her mouth. She winced as her hands were bound together tightly behind her back. He spun her round to face him. He rested his rough hands on her cheeks, caressing them with his thumbs.

"You're special you know that."

JJ could feel her eyes fill with tears, fear making her lose any strength to fight back. She whimpered as his rough hands touched her cheeks.

"I think it's time we should go."

He grabbed her roughly by the shoulders and pushed her towards the door. JJ tried to struggle away from him but he just held her tighter.

"You know if I were you I would cooperate," he said gruffly close into her ear. As he pushed her down the path at the front of her house she looked around the deserted street and willed for someone to open their front door. But she knew that deep down he was right, she was alone now. He stopped her beside a dark blue car, and opened the trunk, his strong grip still wrapped around her arm

"Remember what I said," he whispered as she attempted to get away. She tried to scream as he pushed her into the trunk but all she managed was a pathetic, weak, whimpering noise through the gag. She shook her head as he pushed her in, pleading him to let her go but it was no use as the trunk was slammed shut trapping JJ inside the small dark space.

Alone.

All alone.

So thats installment number two. I hope it lived up to people's expectations! Reviews are always greatly appreciated : )
