Chapter 2 – Taken

They were driving in silence, heading to the garage where Mr Ainsley worked, where he had been driving off to when Emily and Morgan had spoken to him earlier at the house. Then it hit them. Straight out from a small side road, Morgan applied the brakes but it was too late the pickup truck was heading straight towards them.

"Shit!"

It was the only thing Morgan managed to shout before the truck hit their SUV right on the passenger side. Both Morgan and Prentiss were flung forward, the airbags done their job but both were left unconscious.

Emily had seen the impact coming and braced herself as much as possible but the force at which she hit the airbag sent her into darkness. She vaguely felt the arms pulling her out and assumed that it was Morgan but as she was roughly bundled into the back of another vehicle Emily began to think that all was not well.

"Hotch!"

JJ yelled across the floor of the police station. Hotch immediately knew that something serious was up and quickly went over to the worried agent.

"Morgan and Prentiss were involved in an accident. A pickup truck hit the side of their SUV. Morgan's on his way to the hospital now."

"What about Prentiss?"

"That's the thing Hotch, she's not there!"

Hotch felt his heart pound hard and fast as JJ relayed the news to him, it wasn't enough that Morgan had been injured and was on his way to the hospital but Emily...Emily was nowhere to be seen, taken by, Hotch didn't want to contemplate too much but he knew that he had to, he had to shake his own personal feelings aside and think clearly on a professional level.

"Garcia I want to see all the photos and statements from around that accident ASAP! Rossi, Reid go to the garage and bring back Mr Ainsley. JJ and I will go and search that bloody house with a fine toothcomb!"

Hotch moved to climb into the driver's seat of the SUV, quickly he started the engine and moved to speed away, turning briefly to look at JJ.

"What's your opinion?"

JJ took a breath, the team were all tired and waiting impatiently for a break, she certainly did not want it to happen at the expense of her friend.

"It doesn't look good does it Hotch? Whatever Morgan and Emily said to the Ainsley's earlier certainly must have spooked them, it's the only explanation I can think of as to why Emily is missing. Maybe the Ainsley's thought that nobody would notice that Alison was missing, she was a foster kid after all and we all know the statistics of runaways."

Hotch frowned as he listened to JJ, concentrating hard on the road as he pushed harder on the accelerator.

"He fits the profile."

"We'll find her Hotch, we'll get her back."

JJ spoke quietly, looking intently at her boss, she knew the pain he was feeling as the thoughts of what was happening to Emily raced through her head.

Emily vaguely felt the vehicle stop. Her head was throbbing, she was sure that she had severe whiplash and bad bruising on her ribs. Struggling she managed to open her eyes. She looked over at the driver, it was Bobby Ainsley, what a surprise. Cursing to herself she tried to look around at where they were but her eyes were still struggling to focus. The next thing she knew that was happening to her was that Ainsley had opened the passenger door and was dragging her into a small log cabin.

"What the..."

"Don't try and speak, there's no point. Nobody will hear you and more importantly nobody will find you!"

Emily groaned as Ainsley roughly dragged her into the cabin, trying in vain to keep her eyes open but she failed. All she could feel was Ainsley sitting her on a chair, wrapping her wrists and ankles with tape tightly so that she couldn't move.

"Right I'll let you rest for a bit, take care Agent Prentiss, I'm going to have fun with you later!"

Emily drifted back into the darkness, she desperately wanted to fight but knew at this point she stood no chance of winning.
