Chapter 10

Please Review and Thank You for reading!

After had the talk with Rossi, he sneaked onto the floor that Laurie was on and sneaked into her room. As soon as he closed the door behind him, he heard someone whimpering and looked to see that Laurie wasn't in her bed. He gulped and put his hands up before saying, "Laurie, my name is Dr. Spencer Reid, I am with the BAU and I'm here to help you. I mean no harm. You're safe with me, I promise. Will you please come out." After a few seconds, Laurie finally crawled out of her hiding place and got up. "You're here to help me?" "Yes, yes, I'm here to help you. The police department called us in to help them. I'm here to make sure that you are safe." She nodded and then went to go sit on the bed. "He's coming for me, you know." "That's why I'm here to make sure he doesn't." Laurie snickered at what he told her and said, "You can't stop him. He's not human. I'm as good as dead." Spencer cautiously walked up to her and gently grabbed her hand. She looked up at him and he went to kneel down in front of her. "I promise you, that nothing will happen to you. You have my word." She gave him a smile and then went to go lay down in her bed. Spencer stood up and went to leave the room. "Where are you going?" Laurie asked sitting up all of a sudden with fear in her eyes. "I'm just going to go sit outside of your room. Give you some privacy. Is that okay?" she nodded to his question and went back to lay down on her bed. He closed the door behind him and sat down in a chair next to her room. Rossi, Dr. Loomis, and the Deputy left the Myers house to go to the elementary school near Old Reservoir Road, because Hunt received a phone call about a break-in. When they got there, an officer brought them to one of the classrooms to show them the chaos. There was shards of glass on the floor from the window being broken into. On the floor was a pool of blood. They were in a third grade room. It was decorated with Halloween designs and had rows of desks. Blackboards were lined with crepe paper. The officer continued to take them over to the teacher's desk where a e butcher knife was stuck on top. A piece of paper was stabbed to the desk. On the paper was a crude drawing. A child's in crayon. It had a Mother, Father, Sister, and Brother. They also noticed that the knife was stuck in the figure representing the Sister. "Sister." Rossi said pointing to the picture. "Is that it?" the Deputy asked. "No." the officer said. After he said that he shined his flashlight at the blackboard. Written across the blackboard, in blood, was Samhain. "What is that?" the Deputy asked. "It's gibberish." the officer said. "'Samhain' a Celtic word." Rossi told them. Dr. Loomis walked over to the blackboard and said, "It means 'the Lord of the Dead'. 'The end of summer.'" he turned to look back at the Deputy. "The festival of Samhain. October 31st." The Deputy looked confused and said, "He didn't write that. He couldn't write, could he?" Dr. Loomis leaned closer to the blackboard. Suddenly, the map covering the other half of the blackboard rolls up into the ceiling with a loud SNAP! Everyone in the room jumped. And immediately looked sheepish. "Doctor Loomis." Marion said, the nurse. Dr. Loomis looked over at her surprised. "Yes?" "I have to talk to you." "I didn't recognize you without your uniform. What are you doing here?" "Privately." Dr. Loomis glanced at everyone in the room and then walked to the doorway. Rossi continued to look around the classroom until he heard commotion outside in the hallway. When he went out there, he saw Dr. Loomis arguing and ran over to them. "Hey, hey, what is going on?" "They're sending me back to Smith's Grove." "Do you have a choice?" "No, the Governor ordered it and there is a marshal waiting for us outside." They eventually went outside and Marion and Dr. Loomis got into the car. Rossi went towards the car and told Dr. Loomis, "I'll get you out of this and we'll find him." "Where will you guys look now?" The Deputy shook his head and said, "I don't know." "Neither do I." Dr. Loomis said. "Don't worry about it, we'll find him and stop him." Rossi assured him before the drove off.
