Hotch's POV
Giving the profile to the men, we had came to the conclusion that the killer was a white female. She was in her late 20s too early 30s. She was a very close to Higgsworth. That was when Reid spoke up. The killer had to be his ex-wife. There was no getting past it. She was 32, she was married to him, and divorced. They have 3 kids together, and she was only giving us half information about Higgsworth, and why they divorced. It had to be her. So with the men at the ready, we were on our way to her house. Knocking down the door, it was completely dark, and silent. "Miss McMahon! FBI!" I was searching upstairs looking for any hint that she could still be here. Then I heard a gun shot, and Derek screaming, "NO!"
Rossi POV
It was the only explanation. No one else could have pulled something like this off, and not be a suspect. Good thing we have Reid. Otherwise we would still be at a loss, looking for a male killer. Searching the kitchen, I didn't find any evidence of the team in the entry room. Turning to make it known that the area was clear, was when I heard it. That was when I heard Derek Scream. "NO!"
Derek's POV
Searching for the unsub, I knew if she wasn't here, she couldn't have gotten that far. Searching the entry way, I turned to see her standing there with a gun in one hand, and her kid in another. I froze. Putting my gun in the air. "Come on, you don't want to do this." I said, as calmly as possible. She shook here head. :You left me with no other choice. I had to, or he wouldn't have stopped." I nodded my head. "Your right. He wouldn't have stopped. He was a monster, and someone had to do something." Yes! Yes your right! I was that somebody. I did something." She said, frantic. Her child looking scared to death. "So do another good thing, and put the fun down." I said, trying to reason with her.
"I can't. I can't, because then you would have to take my away from my children." I shook my head this time. "Please. Look? Your scaring him. Just put it down, and we can talk this out." It was then that something clicked in her mind. "NO! NO! I won't let you! I won't let you take me away!" She screamed, pressing the gun harder against the boys head. "Put it down!" I screamed. She just kept saying no. Then the next thing I know, her gun is trained on me, and then there's a gun shot. I close my eyes, and reopen them again. Only to see the one thing that I never thought that I would have to see again. Reid on top of me bleeding out. "NO!" I screamed.
Reid's POV
I was in the dinning room, when I head Derek talking to someone. I slowly crept inside, to see him face to face with the unsub. She had a gun to one of her kid's head, and Derek was trying to talk her down. Then she trained the gun on him Then all I could think of was Derek! Not him! Not Derek! Before I knew what I was doing, my body was moving towards him, and I'm pushing him onto the ground. It isn't until after the shot, that I feel the intense pain in my lower abdomen. I look up at Derek with shocked eyes. I see that he is mirroring my expression, and starts to scream. "NO!" Then everything starts to turn black, and it hits me that I have just in fact been shot.
