Chapter 9- Blood and Bust

Emily Prentiss was squatting in a weird position in Isabella Tyler's mediocre sized closet. Thankfully she had a pile of clothes on the closet floor to lean against. Peering through the slits in the door, Prentiss could see Isabella Tyler sitting at her computer with head phones on and music blaring. Then from her own ear piece she heard Hotch whisper, "Be ready, JJ said that Bliley was climbing up the side of the house and will be coming through Isabella's bedroom window." In the quietest voice she had Prentiss replied, "I'm on it." Suddenly from the other side of the closet door there was a sound of breaking glass, and an ear curling scream from Isabella. Through the broken window climbed a man with extremely pale skin (like someone who had never stepped foot outside), long brown hair pulled back in a ponytail, and wearing a long black coat. Prentiss knew immediately that this man was Jacob Bliley. Not wasting anytime Bliley raced to Isabella' and attacked her with the knife that he held in his hand. He jabbed down low and stabbed her leg, penetrating the femoral artery. Her leg bleeding Isabella collapsed onto the floor. With her in that state Bliley grabbed her right arm and placed his mouth around the wrist to make the familiar bite mark. Having seen enough Prentiss banged open the closet door while yelling, "FBI, put your hands above your head!" This then brought Hotch and Chief Tyler running into the room guns drawn. Seeing that he was out numbered Bliley did as he was told. Wasting no time herself Prentiss immediately handcuffed Bliley's hands behind his back. As she was doing this Chief Tyler dashed to his daughter's side, seeing the stab wound in her leg he removed his belt and tied it above the wound to stop the bleeding. As this was happening Hotchner checked her vital, finding a pulse he turned to Prentiss and said, "Get an ambulance here now. Then go downstairs and inform the rest of the team of what has happened."Exiting the room Prentiss wiped out her cell and dialed 9-1-1 as Hotch instructed. Having given the 9-1-1 operator all the information that was needed including that fact that the incident was part of an FBI case Prentiss ended the call and informed to Hotch and Chief Tyler, "ambulance will be here really fast." With a nod from Hotch Prentiss headed downstairs to fulfill Hotch's other order. Reaching the landing at the base of the stairs Prentiss found Rossi, Reid, and JJ standing in the hallway awaiting any news of what had happened upstairs. Seeing Prentiss make her way down the stairs JJ stepped forward as she said, "We heard a scream from the upstairs while we were outside. We figured it was Isabella, we didn't receive a signal from Hotch so we decided to come inside anyway."Right as JJ finished and before Prentiss could say a word Reid asked, "What's happened? What's going on?" And adding to what Reid had asked, Rossi asked, "Did you guys get him?" Finally seeing a break in the waterfall of questions Prentiss replied, "The scream you heard was Isabella, she screamed when Bliley shattered her window and entered her room…Bliley then launched himself at Isabella and stabbed her in the leg penetrating the femoral artery. We apprehended Bliley just as he started to bite her wrist. Hotch and Chief Tyler are upstairs with her and have already made a tern kit for her leg, and there is an ambulance on the way." Right at that moment Deputy Daniels and of the other department deputies came walking down the stairs with a handcuffed Jacob Bliley between them. Giving the four of them a quick nod Deputy Daniels and the other deputy continued walking Bliley out of the house and into one of the cruisers. A little while later there came the sounds and bright lights of a newly arrived ambulance out in front of the house. In a matter of seconds the paramedics came through the door with back brace in hand. Seeing Prentiss at the front of the group one medic asked, "Can you show us where the victim is?" Quickly nodding Prentiss immediately showed the men upstairs to Isabella's room. After barely five minutes Hotch walked down the stairs with Prentiss at his heels. Seeing the question that was in all three of their eyes Hotch said, "Paramedics took over. They are getting her stabilized and are giving her oxygen. The tern kit we placed on her leg seemed to have helped but they want to get her to the hospital immediately." Just then one of the medics scrambled down the steps to Hotch and asked, "Agent Hotchner, do you think you and one of your team members could help us bring Miss Tyler down the stairs to the stretcher we placed outside the front door?" Quickly glancing down to Reid, Rossi, and JJ Hotch answered, "Yes I'll help." "I'll help too," replied Rossi as he made his way up the stairs for the first time. With helpers found the medic turned back around and headed back upstairs. As they made their way upstairs to bring Isabella downstairs Prentiss decided she had better get off the stairs. A few minutes later the paramedics accompanied with Hotch and Rossi, all holding the back brace holding Isabella Tyler slowly made their way down the stairs. Directly on their heels coming down the stairs was Chief Tyler. Once they had placed Isabella and back brace onto the stretcher the paramedics took over once again and quickly wheeled her into the ambulance along with Chief Tyler coming along for the ride. The danger over everyone removed their bullet proof vests. Walking back to the Tahoes with vests in hand Prentiss asked, "So since we have Bliley in custody, and not to mention that Isabella Tyler has been saved and is on her way to the hospital, does that mean we can go see Morgan and Garcia and their new arrival?" Turning back to look at Prentiss as he continued walking to the Tahoe Hotch's face held his usual little smirk which no one had seen in a few days. Still smirking Hotch said, "Yes. The case is over, and visiting them sounds good." With their destination agreed upon everyone loaded into the Tahoes and headed to the hospital…
