A/N- Hey guys, a baby chapter now but I'll post another one straight after this. I'm on holidays which is why I'm just posting these straight away :) A lot of people seem to have this story on alert, but only a few have reviewed and the majority of those have been from one person LOL.

You know who you are and I love you x

PS- There is a Maggie coming up in futher chapters, but I didn't have any use for a female character (and I didn't think you'd appreciate being a dead child lmao).


JJ made some calls to Saint Mary's and Dean Porter while Morgan and Frank interviewed the man and older lady. Emily and Hotch took on Beth.

Emily sat down next to her while Hotch stood infront. Emily took her hand.

"You're doing great Beth." she assured her.

Beth sniffled and wiped her face with some tissues Frank had provided.

Hotch began; "Can you tell us anything about her? Did she seem nervous, worried? How about angry?"

Beth paused for thought and replied "No. I mean, yeah she was nervous. Calm as well. But not... I mean..."

"What Beth?" Emily asked, squeezing her hand.

"I mean she seemed worried but like she was trying to be calm. She didn't yell or... Mostly, she just seemed... Nice."

"Nice?" Hotch questioned.

Beth half laughed, but it wasn't in humour. She put her hands in her head.

"I know, it sounds stupid..."

"Not at all beth." Said Emily, looking at Hotch.


"I just got off the Phone with Saint Mary's." Said JJ hanging up the phone. "Everyone over there is busy but I said we'd send someone to go up there."

Hotch gave her a nod.

"So what's the plan?" Asked Morgan.

Hotch thought for a moment. "The clock is ticking. Frank, can you have one of your officers bring in Alex Newman?" He nodded. "Morgan, Frank, you two go down to Saint Mary's and see if her doctors can give anything up. Emily, you stay here so I have someone free in case she asks for something. The clock is ticking." Everyone nodded and went on their way.


As time wore on Spencer was getting worried. Had Hotch got the message, and had the local police bothered to call? He looked at Valencia and knew something was wrong. She just stared at the floor. Mumbling something to herself, slightly shaking.

Quietly, she continued; "Ivy Sarah Dawn Lily Catherine Maisy April Ivy Sarah Dawn Lily Catherine Maisy April Ivy Sarah Dawn Lily..."

When Spencer finally made out what she was saying, realization hit him.

"I know those names"

She stopped and looked to him. "Lots of people have heard those names. They're common."

"That's not what I meant-"

"I know what you meant." She cut him off.

"The Washington Snatcher. I was finishing another course at University."

She said nothing.

Something dawned on him. "Is that what this is about? Are you one of them?"

She smiled one of her sad smiles again.

"No Spencer. I'm not."
