The End and What It's Worth- Chapter 14
Escape Plan
"..........k, so I hope this doesnt suck! Please R&R!"
Spencer Reid blinked his eyes open slowly. He tried to sit up as his vision refocused. When he could see clearly again, he looked around for Henry, but couldn't find him.
"I presume you're looking for Henry, Dr. Reid?" Foyet said from behind him. Reid turned around, and glared at him.
"We made a deal. I want Henry back!" Reid declared through gritted teeth.
"Fine, fine. You can have the baby back. All he did was cry, anyway. And you're welcome- I had my friend change his filthy diaper." Foyet walked over to Reid, and passed over Henry- who had started to cry. Reid shushed him- fearing that Foyet would get aggravated and hurt Henry.
"You know, if it weren't for your job at the BAU, I bet you would be an okay father- unlike Hotch." Reid knew that Foyet was trying to push him over the edge, so he stayed silent. There was no way he was going to give Foyet the satisfaction he was looking for. "If Miss JJ was smart, she would've picked Will over you." Foyet looked at Reid, for a reaction, but he kept his gaze swiftly on Henry- who he had finally got to stop crying. Seeing that it wasn't working, Foyet finally stopped talking.
"Dr. Reid, are you still curious about the horrible things I'm going to do to you?" Foyet smiled.
"Why? Are you willing to tell me?" Reid answered.
"I'm going to take that as a yes." Foyet began to pace in a circle around Henry and Reid. "Tell me something, Dr. Reid. Are you familiar with the name Jason Gideon?" Reid nodded. "Good, I thought you would. And I presume you remember what he did for you in college. You know, practically force the BAU on you and so-called 'mentor' you."
"Is this about Gideon?" Reid asked- clearly getting the hints
"Partly, but not really. Now, why did he single you out? Why did he think you- a 17 year old child prodigy from Las Vegas - would be a good FBI agent?" Foyet asked.
"He told me my mind was brilliant, and that I could do practically anything I tried to wit a little practice. He said he would be honored to have an FBI agent like me on the BAU team he was working with." Reid answered- getting annoyed.
"Good. Now why would someone with a brilliant mind like yours settle for a job as an FBI agent? You could have joined Google, the CIA, the president, gambler, anything that would've payed more. And trust me- I've seen your paychecks. They're really aren't that big." Foyet smirked.
"What are you getting at?" Reid asked. He didn't know where Foyet was getting at, but he had a feeling it wasn't anything good.
"I'm getting at the point that you decided to join the BAU to become a profiler. You settled with a job where you would have to get inside the minds on criminals, have to look at bloody pictures of murdered children, profile victim, and risk your life. All for what, Dr. Reid? Please do tel me what seems so appealing about your job." Foyet said sarcastically.
"I put away people like you. With one less criminal on the street, a mother and her children can go out and be even just a little safer. That's all I need to keep going. " Reid spat out- getting aggravated.
"Well, if you put it that way, sign me up!" Foyet once more said sarcastically. "Now, if anything you've told me about profilers, and anything the news says about the BAU is true, who you become depends on what you lived through as a child. Like Hotch, for example. If you look really close at some of these 'unfiled child abuse' cases, the name Aaron Hotchner comes up. Turns out, your boss' father had a little too much to drink every now and then, and would beat the crap out of him. Emily Prentiss- her parents are diplomats. Politicians, even. She could have had a nice and comfy job doing nothing all day, but she decided to join the BAU. Derek Morgan- he grew up in Chicago. Turns out the youth leader at his childhood community center took him to a cabin and raped him. Now he's in the BAU. David Rossi- he had criminal friends. He lived in a small town with lots of bad things happening. One day, I presume, something happened that made him want to have justice, and thus the BAU was born. Miss JJ- once more, a small town, lived a happy childhood, but witnessed a life-changing event. Her friend was abused. She advised her friend to call the police, and this friend did. A week later, Miss JJ's friend's body was found in the woods. Penelope Garcia- she also had a happy childhood. I recently found out, though, that in college her room mate's mother was killed. Her friend was never the same after that. And with Garcia's skills with computers, and knowing what murder can do to a family, she joined the BAU.
"And then there's you- Dr. Spencer Reid. Your mother was schizophrenic. He were terribly smart as a child, and knew about things that you shouldn't have. When you were about 5, your father left the picture. You were forced to deal with being the smartest kid at school and get punished every day for it, and to take care of poor Diana. Then, one day you turned 18. a year after you graduated college, you had to make a decision. You had to put your mother away. You talked to Gideon, he told you that you were doing the right thing, and so you put her away. About half a year after that, you were eligible for FBI training. Of course, at the end of the year, you passed the school, and was just waiting for a spot in the BAU to open up. About a year after that, Gideon made a mistake. You had gotten lucky- Gideon accidentally got his team killed, and the BAU was recruiting for the fist time in 5 years. After that, it all went down-hill. You had almost gotten killed a few times, almost blown up on that Fisher King case, you were tortured and drugged for two days, got addicted to he drugs, had a rough patch after that, but you finally got off them, and then things got even worse for you. In the last year alone, if my calculations are correct, if you weren't as smart as you are with that 187 IQ of yours, you would have died about three time. Of course, the grand totally is 7 +. I hope that you aren't a cat, Dr. Reid, because if you are, you're going to be dead very soon." Foyet smiled.
"What does any of this have to do with what you are going to do with me?" Reid growled. He had no idea that Foyet knew all of this, and was starting to worry that he was smarter than their profile gave him credit for.
"I need that big brain of yours to help me. Turns out the FBI's on my tail, and I'm not quite done playing around yet. You, Dr. Reid, I have been studying for years. The day you graduated college was a big day for me, you know. Because from that very moment on, I knew that I was safe from being caught. I'm getting old, Dr. Reid, and I can't run around like I use to. But you can change that! Here's the deal, Dr. Reid : In exchange for young Henry's life, you get me out of this damned country, and I kill you. "
"...............ome!! foyet truly is evil :) I hope that some of that made some sense. Please R&R!"
