Here's another chapter for you guys! Thanks for the support! x
"I think the FBI would do us good in this." Anya said the next morning. They had held Greg, Xander, Ruby and Hannah in custody until further evidence or tips came through.
"But they do mass murders. Not single murders." Eric thought.
"Not unless it's as unusual a case as this." Natalia said. Anya nodded and got out her phone. Dialling her husband's number, she put it on loudspeaker.
"Sup An?" Matthew asked.
"Nothing much... Uh you're working a case in-"
"San Francisco... Why...?" Matthew asked.
"We're working a weird case and we're getting nowhere. I was wondering if your guys could help." Anya said.
"Hmm, let me ask Hotch. We're done with the case anyway. Give me a minute or so."
"Okay. I'll hold." Anya said. "Now, all we have to do is see if the FBI are willing to give us a new pair of eyes."
"It's cool your husband works for the FBI." Calleigh smiled.
"Is it not cool I work here?" Eric retorted. The team laughed and sighed. The phone call was picked up by another person.
"Mrs Fuller? This is Agent Hotchner. We'll be willing to help you with your case. Just send Matt your case details and we will meet you in Miami in four hours." Agent Aaron Hotchner said.
"Good. Thanks, Agent. We'll be expecting you." With that, the call ended and Anya sent the case details to her husband's phone.
"I wonder if we're wasting precious FBI time." Horatio asked.
"You heard him. They're willing." Ryan said. "So you know your husband's co-workers?"
"Yeah. Before we moved to Miami to be closer to my mom, we lived in L.A. I was stay-at-home mom and Matthew went and worked. It was hard for us, saying goodbye all the time, not knowing whether he would make it home that night." Anya whispered, twisting her wedding band around her finger.
"Must have been hard." Walter commented.
"It was. So Matthew decided he would stay at home and support me with my career. Hence, moving to Miami to get away from his job, kinda." Anya laughed a little.
"So, who wants to visit that new salad bar down the road?" Eric announced.
"Anya, it's so good to see you!" SSA Jennifer 'JJ' Jareau greeted, hugging her distant friend.
"Same." Anya smiled. She greeted the other agents and met Dr Alex Blake. "Guys, meet my team. Lieutenant Horatio Caine and detectives Ryan Wolfe, Natalia Boa Vista-Wolfe, Calleigh Duquesne, Eric Delko and Officer Walter Simmons."
"Nice to meet you." Agent Hotchner said, shaking their hands.
Matthew Fuller made his way to them and smiled. "Hey." he said.
"Don't you have kids to pick up?" Natalia joked.
"Eh, Anita loves them." Matthew said, following everyone to the conference room.
"Don't leave my kids with my sister. She has three of her own." Anya warned, sitting at her desk.
"Now, your case is highly unusual." Dr Spencer Reid said, waving his arms for emphasis.
"That's why we need you guys, Spence." Anya sighed. "We're going round in circles and it's making us crazy."
"Okay, who are your suspects at the moment?" SSA David Rossi asked.
"Greg and Hannah Bracknell. Xander Lottle. Ruby Frank." Horatio said.
"And these are all teenagers?" Dr Alex Blake asked.
"Yep. Ages 17-18. All seniors." Ryan answered.
"Right from what we see here," Spencer started. "the unsub-"
"Unsub? What's that?" asked a certain southern blonde.
"Unidentified subject." JJ said. Calleigh nodded.
"As I was saying, the unsub seems violent in how they use their weapon. You see, Arden Vincent's face is completely covered in-"
"Don't say it. Even though I am not pregnant, I still get sick." Calleigh warned.
"Anyway, they just seem violent and heartless. Did any of your suspects seem heartless?" Spencer asked.
"Greg Bracknell... Hannah Bracknell... Ruby seemed, I don't know." Natalia answered.
"She was heartless in terms of speaking. Emotionally? No." Anya finished. Spencer nodded at the new information.
"Can we take this case off your hands?" Agent Rossi asked.
"Go ahead." Horatio said. The FBI leader nodded and thanked them.
"Just as long as we get credit for getting these sick children." Anya said.
"Give them the credit. Their country. Their business. And plus my wife's very persuasive and conniving." Matthew advised, making Hotch chuckle.
"Well, I'm calling it a night. I have babies at home." Calleigh said.
"How about we go out? Just as thanking these people for helping us." Ryan suggested.
"I'm in." JJ said.
"Ditto." Agent Morgan smiled.
"Yeah?" Eric asked, smiling. "Okay, anyone can join. We'll reserve a big table. Now how many of us here...?"
Do you like the twist? :/ It fits with the sequel that's why. But the team do get to help with the case :)
