All Things Happen For A Reason

Chapter 23

Reid and Hotch are on the road that the driveway is on. Neither can see any buildings from there. So they believe that they can't be seen either. They wait for Morgan and Garcia. They don't have to wait long. Morgan and Garcia pull up. Flashing lights off. Everyone gets out and meets to form a square.

"Ok. There is four of us and two of them. That we know of. Now if two of us take the back of the house and two in the front, we can surprise them." Hotch says.

"What if they hold a gun to Em or Meg?" Garcia asks. Clearly worried.

"Then we have to kill Logan." Hotch says, unlike himself.

"Hotch man, we called the locals for back up. So this is done by the books. So John Logan is able to do major prison time and Emily, Meghan and any other girl is safe from him and his twisted ways." Morgan says, explaining his actions.

"You're right. What's the ETA?" Hotch asks.

"They gave us half an hour." Morgan says, not happy.

"To be honest, I'll hold out as long as I can. But knowing Emily is in there, having him doing God knows what is not helping me."

"I know man. Let's get suited up. Get the emergency kits and blankets around. Be completely prepared for anything."

"Why are you untied?" John asks Emily.

"You said I could use the restroom to relieve myself. Meghan helped to do that. We just got back. Meghan didn't have time to tie me back up." Emily says, sarcastically.

John walks over and back hands Emily. This action leaves Emily with a cut and bleeding lip.

"John! You stop that! If she's pregnant, a blow like that could make her miscarry." Henry says. Henry knew it was a lie. But he hated to see that kind of abuse to women. Rape was different in his eyes. But hitting was uncalled for.

"Damn! Take this one back to her room. Lock her in. I'm going to tie Emily up." John says. Then waits for Henry and Meghan to be out of the room.

"Emily, you are becoming more of a bother than you're worth. I may just leave you here, tied up. Take Meghan and run away. By the time anyone finds you, you'll be dead." John tightens the ropes to emphasize his idea. Causing Emily's wrists to be pinched and bitten into. Drawing small trickles of blood to run slowly down her arms.

"Wouldn't it just piss you off if I not only survived, but hunted YOU down and made you bleed. Causing you more problems. Oh, you know, YOUR DEATH!" Emily spat at him, right in the face.

He back hands her on the other side of her face. John wipes the spit away. He looks down at Emily. He slapped her so hard, he knocked her unconscious.

30 minutes have passed and no team. "We have to go in. Garcia, call them. Tell them we have to go in. And to get here ASAP!" Hotch yells. He looks at Morgan and Reid. "Morgan, you take the back. Reid and I will take the front. Garcia stays and waits for back up." Hotch says, checking his ammo and weapon. As does, Morgan and Reid.

"Ready." Morgan and Reid say at the same time. The three start to run down the long dirt driveway. Garcia stands there and watches as the men get smaller and disappear all together. Hoping that the afternoon/evening sun doesn't give them away. Praying that all her family comes out without a scratch.

"I'm going to call Garcia to see how things are going." Rossi tells JJ, who is nursing Billie with no problem.

"Hello!" Garcia answers her phone.

"Hey Garcia. How are things going? Any news?" Rossi asks.

"Uh…yeah. We are at the farm. My boys just went in WITHOUT the local FBI back up. I'm so scared! I feel so helpless! I'm here waiting for the back up. They're stuck in traffic." Garcia's breathing hard. It sounds like she's hyperventilating.

"Ok, Garcia, calm down. You're going to pass out. Then you're no good for the FBI back up. You know our team is the best. Emily is good too. She knows how to handle herself. Do you want to stay on the line and talk to me until the back up gets there?" Rossi asks, concerned.

"No. They might call back. I need to keep the line open. Tell new mama that we love her and are going to bring Emily to see baby Billie shortly." Garcia says, sounding more like herself.

"Ok. Call me if you need to have someone to keep you calm." Rossi hangs up and calls the local FBI. He threatens to make them suffer if there isn't some form of back up at that farm house. Then feels better. So he walks over to JJ and Billie.
