A/N I'm once again sorry for taking so long. I was on a vacation and my friend is here visiting which keeps me from writing that much. But here's another chapter. I hope you like it, I was very conflicted about it.

I'd like to thank AWChic for motivating me to get this done by sending me PMs. It's always highly appreciated since I can get a little lazy sometimes:P

Now, enjoy!

Chapter 11

Beth had watched enough crime shows to know that the mirror in the interrogation room was only a mirror on her side and would hold some kind of detective on the other.

Her leg was shaking, which easily could be mistaken for guilt, but she hadn't done anything. Though she would have to do something soon. She just couldn't lie to the police so she would most likely be the cause of four deaths. The rest of the survivors would hate her and Hotch would definitely break it off if he ever were to find out.

A tear escaped her eye and she wiped it away angrily. At that moment the officer who had arrested her decided to enter the room. She straightened up and took a deep breath.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting, miss Clemmons." he said as he sat down opposite of her. He cleared his throat. "I don't believe you hurt those people."

Beth looked into the officer's eyes. "Then why the hell am I here?" Beth wasn't usually the one to curse, but it was almost absurd that they had brought her there if they didn't believe she was guilty of committing the crime. They couldn't arrest her on no grounds.

"I believe you know who did it, though," he said. He put a few files in front of him before continuing. "Kevin Lynch was shot, Aaron Hotchner fell hard enough to get pierced by whatever glass he landed on..." Beth cringed when hearing for the first time what had happened to her boyfriend. "...Penelope Garcia got pierced by nails and David Rossi almost got blinded. All this during one night. They're also all in the FBI and all but one from the same team. Now tell me where you fit in all this."

Beth gulped, forcing her tears to stay hidden. "Aaron Hotchner is my boyfriend." she choked out.

The officer seemed to scribble this answer down.

"What happened to him?" He asked.

"I wasn't there," Beth said, honestly.

"Then who did this?"

"I don't know," Beth sighed, looking down at her hands. "Look, I've already told you more than I should. If I even breathe a word more about this the rest will die."

Beth let her head fall into her hands.

"And who are the rest?" The officer asked, staring intently at the woman who now refused to meet his eyes.

Beth thought long and hard about if she should risk telling him. She decided against it.

"If I tell you they'll die and I won't have that on my shoulder."

"We can help you." Beth shook her head. "Look, you said you have somewhere to be, but we can't let you go unless you cooperate." Beth looked up this time. "Whoever made this threat won't know that we know."

Beth exhaled a shaky breath. "Spencer Reid, Derek Morgan, Emily Prentiss and William LaMontagne are the remaining people."

"Where are they?"

"Trapped in a house. We couldn't get out until he let us."

"Who's he?"

"The man that's holding them prisoner and I have no doubt that he'll hurt them just as much as the rest, if not more."

"Why are you unharmed?" The officer asked suspiciously.

"He let me and JJ go together with the kids."

Beth finally stopped fighting the tears and let them flow freely down her cheeks.

Someone would definitely have her head for this one. Garcia had mentioned that Emily was now wearing a shock collar which made this whole situation a lot worse.

"Where is the house?" The officer wanted to know.

"I can't tell you. You will send someone there and all of them will die." Beth failed miserably at keeping her breathing calm.

"Then tell me what to do."

They couldn't stop staring at the young boy who stood in front of them. It was as if he would grow older and more like an UNSUB if they stared long enough. Emily's hand was in Reid's the whole time as the boy walked closer.

He was very thin without any visible muscles and would be very easy to overpower as soon as he let go of that remote. Emily followed him with her eyes and shivered when seeing the smirk on his face that probably would've been very cute if he hadn't just hurt all of their friends and was most likely going to hurt them now too.

"Hey relax, I'm not gonna hurt you..." The boy said as if he had read her mind. He walked past them and just when Reid was going to make a move against the boy, he turned around. "...unless you do something to provoke me." He held the remote in front of them to show exactly what he meant.

Reid stepped back and watched the boy putting the TV on and making himself comfortable on the bloody couch. He changed the channel until he found something he would like.

"Mommy, can you fix me some breakfast? I'm starving."

Both Emily and Reid were taken aback. What was he talking about? The boy turned around to look into Emily's eyes.

"Come on now, mother. You wouldn't want me to hurt you."

Emily shook her head, let go of Reid's hand and went cautiously into the kitchen to follow his orders. Maybe this would give Reid some time to talk to the boy and she could figure out how to escape.

When she was in the kitchen she looked through the cabinets and the fridge for something she could use in both the cooking and the escape. She didn't find much food suited for kids, being Rossi's house and all, so she decided to make him a sandwich with some kind of whole grain bread. The boy had to just live with it.

In the living room, Reid sat down in the armchair at a safe distance from the boy.

"What's your name?" Reid asked.

"Luke." The boy said without taking his eyes off of the TV.

"How old are you?" Reid asked again, more cautiously.

"14." The boy answered.

"Where are your parents?" Reid asked and this time the boy turned to face him.

"You are my parents."

"Why do you say that?"

"Because it's true. Now it is at least. Took me a while to find you."

Reid gulped and glanced down to the remote tightly clutched in the youngster's hand.

The boy turned back to the TV and Reid got busy with profiling his every move. The way he threatened to shock Emily and how he'd hurt all their friends without a teeny bit of regret made him think that he was a sociopath. He couldn't have any feelings if he had caused them so much pain without even blinking.

"Breakfast is ready." Emily's cold voice startled him.

Luke turned his head to look at his made-believe mother. With a wide grin on his face he stood up and walked straight for the kitchen.

"Thank you, mom." He said and stroked her arm as he passed her. "Are you coming?" Luke glanced back, daring them to do anything else than what he told them.

As for now they didn't, but they knew they wouldn't be able to keep this up for much longer. Maybe it was worth one shock if it would mean them getting out of there. The question was how fatal it could become. If he pressed down longer on the remote would it be enough to kill her? Most likely. If it meant that Reid would get out of there alive she'd do it right away, but she couldn't be that selfish. Reid would be too devastated and blame himself. No, Emily couldn't cause him that much pain and if they both did what they were told for now, Reid wouldn't get harmed.

Luke sat down by the kitchen table in front of his sandwich and Emily felt happy that he didn't complain about what she'd given him.

"Where is your breakfast?" He asked instead. "I'm not eating alone and you must be starving by now."

Emily sighed and made two identical sandwiches for Emily and Reid. They sat down opposite their young captor.

"Why are you doing this?" Emily asked after taking a bit of her sandwich, not breaking eye contact once.

The boy smiled. "You tell me."

"You're a neglected child." Emily started, taking in every reaction she could get from Luke. "Your parents didn't show you enough love. Maybe they were alcoholics or worked too much, but they didn't spend much time with you. You got bullied in school too and always felt alone." Emily continued to give the profile the team had set up earlier, only now she knew that their UNSUB in fact was a kid.

"If you knew why I'm doing this, why did you ask me?" Luke laughed.

"But if you only wanted me and Spencer to be your parents why did you have to hurt all our friends?"

"I studied you for a while and you were never alone except for when you went to the movies, but let's face it... I wouldn't be able to overpower you in an attack so I had to plan something bigger and when I heard about your christmas get together at Rossi's I knew it was the perfect opportunity."

"But how?" Reid asked, making the young boy's attention turn to him.

"Wow, I think it's enough with questions for now." Luke said as he took a bite of his sandwich. "What do you wanna do today?"

Reid and Emily looked at each other before meeting Luke's eyes again. "Maybe we could go to the park," Reid suggested.

Luke started laughing. "You're not leaving this house."

"You will never get away with this you know? People will come looking for us and you're just a little shit that anyone could take down." Emily regretted saying that immediately when she got a wave of electricity cursing through her body, making her limper on the chair and causing her to almost fall of.

"All you have to do is be nice to me and we won't have these problems," Luke said.

"Fuck," Emily said through gritted teeth.

"I know. Hurts like a bitch, doesn't it? That's why you need to behave yourselves and follow my rules," Luke said.

"And what are the rules?" Reid dared to ask.

Luke sighed, "Why can't we just sit down and enjoy our meal for just one second without asking questions?"

He took the last bite of his sandwich and wiped his mouth with his sleeve.

Emily and Reid wasn't even halfway through their sandwiches, but neither one of them could eat more. Luke assigned Emily the job to clean the kitchen while the boys went back into the living room. When Emily was done ten minutes later she joined them and found that Reid looked paler than normal. Emily immediately got worried and her heartbeat seemed to quicken.

"What's going on?" Emily asked, but Reid just stared in front of him.

Luke looked at her with a wide grin. "You tell her, daddy."

Reid broke out of his stare and looked at his colleague. "He wants us to give him a little brother."

A/N There you have it! More answers will come when Luke decides to answer their questions.

Thank you for reading and I hope you leave a line or two:)
