Uzu: Please don't kill me I had a mild writer's block, National History Day at my school, state testing, and my friend opened a nasty can of worms a couple days ago and we still haven't figured it out.

"So baby girl what do you have for us now." Morgan told the present Penelope
"Well, here we have, Annie Beck, female, 16, from Chicago, went missing a two months and was found three days ago in Lake Michigan," said Penelope pointing at the screen, showing pictures of a girl perfectly conserved. No abuse was show, nor were there scars, the girl just appeared to be asleep.
"Sexual and physical assault was ruled out and there are more cases like this all with a signature, there was always some odd symbol, it actually looked like a lot of kanji," continued Penelope, showing a zoomed up picture of the patterned kanji. Akira had a sharp intake of air, her eyes widening. Everyone in the room looked at her expectantly, she closed her eyes and rubbed the bridge of her nose, this case suddenly got harder.
"That doesn't look like kanji it is kanji, not written at random either, it's an actual seal, you know, the ones that come in Japanese folk tales, the ones involving demons." Said Akira her eyes suddenly getting a steeled and analyzed look in them as she stared at the seal.
"The center actually means paralyzing and the ones on the outer corners are supportment and blood seals. If the blood of a specific person is on these specific marks (she pointed at the corners) then she'll wake up like nothing, but if the wrong blood is poured…"
"Then she'll die." Reid finished for her seeing the grim look on her face.
"Yea, any all the kanji in between basically work like a security system, all in all it's a flawless technic." Akira summed up but then she added, "This on in particular can't be broken because of the blood seal."
"Alright, take caution, treat the girl like she's a ticking bomb, just waiting to explode, alright let's-"started Hotch but was cut off by Akira.
"Hey Penelope, are there anything else." She said.
"Yea, there's another one at the base of her neck but a lot smaller." Penelope showed a picture of the seal, but it was too tiny, as in barely visible to the naked eye, small. Akira squinted her eyes and sighed.
"Can you please have someone take a picture of it under a microscope and send it to me, I really don't like the feeling in my stomach, and can you get someone to check up on the boys every once in a while." Akira said standing up and looking at Penelope. Everyone was outside already.
"Yea sure. Good luck, alright, your first case is always the hardest, remember that." Said Penelope as Akira left the room.
