Old Friends-Ch 9
Hotch took a deep breath and said, "how is Emily"?, the doctor said, "I'm not gonna lie to you Agent Hotchner, she lost alot of blood and we almost lost her a couple of times on the table". The team felt their hearts break in half when they heard the doctor say, "the next 24 to 48 hours are the most critical for her". Hotch said, "this is the rest of my team, this is SSA Derek Morgan, Analysis Penelope Garcia, SSA Jennifer Jareau, Dr Spencer Reid and SSA David Rossi". The doctor nodded his head and said, "it is nice to meet you all but not under these conditions", Hotch said, "I want to see if we can possibly get Emily and Jack put in the same room"?, the doctor said, "let me see what I can do"?, he then turned and walked over to the desk to set everything up.
Hotch turned around and looked at his team and said, "what do we know so far", Derek said, "whoever these people are they are extremely well organized and weren't afraid that they would get caught", Reid said, "also we think that this is being done out of revenge". Hotch looked at his team and said,
"revenge?, revenge for what"? Derek put his hand on Hotchs shoulder and said, "we don't know but we are gonna find out". Hotch walked over and sat down and put his head in his hands.
Rossi looked at his dear friend and said, "I agree that putting Emily and Jack in the same room is a great idea, that way we can protect them both at the same time". Hotch looked up at the team and said,"that isn't the only reason I want them in the same room", Pen looked at him and said, "what is the other reason bossman", he looked up at the team and hesitated slightly as he came up with a way to tell the team about Emily being Jacks mom.
He said, "we need to get everybody set up and get Garcia to run background checks", she smiled and said, "it's already done bossman", he smiled and thought how amazing his team was. Penelope looked at Hotch and said, "what aren't you telling us", he motioned for the team to follow him into the conference room.
One by one they filed into the room and sat down at the table with Hotch, he said, "alot of things have happened since Jack and Emily were brought into the hospital", Rossi leaned forward and said, like what kind of things"?, he bit down on his lip and said, well when we were told that Jack had to have surgery Emily asked was there anything that we could do to help and the doctor suggested blood donation".
Reid said, "that's normal though Hotch, what is his blood type". Hotch said, "it is the rarest blood type, it's AB-", Derek looked at him and said,
"so what is the problem"?, Hotch said, "Emily said that since she had the same blood type that she would gladly donate", Reid knew how rare that blood type was and said, "that's pretty lucky that she had the same type as Jack".
Hotch looked around the table and said, "it isn't as it seems guys", Derek sat back in his seat and said, "meaning what", Hotch said, "they have been swamped here today and when they were filling out Emilys paperwork something accidently got marked", JJ and Reid said in unison, "what was marked",
he said, "a DNA test".
Hotch sighed and said, "we found out earlier today that Emily is Jacks biological mother", Pen covered her mouth and said, "oh my god, how could we none have known that our raven haired beauty had given birth to Jackers"?, Hotch placed his hands up on the table and said, "she explained everything to me, when she found out that she was pregnant she knew that she had several options open to her and she decided to have the baby and then give him up for adoption".
Rossi said,"so do you think that Emily being Jacks mom has something to do with the attempt on their lives"?, Hotch nodded his head and said, "well I don't think we can disreguard the possibility". Reid said, "that definitely fits in with the revenge scenerio that we came up with on the plane earlier".
JJ rubbed her temples and said, "so maybe the people that are doing all this is related to Jacks biological dad", Hotch nodded his head and said, "that is what I'm thinking to". Pen looked at Hotch and said, "I need to hook my babies up and get cracking on this bossman, I need to try to see if I can find out who Jacks dad is". Hotch stood up and said, "I will go see if we can hook you up in here Garcia", he stood up and walked out of the room.
The rest of the team look at each other, Rossi said, "we need to get security on them pronto", they all nodded their head in agreement, Derek said,
"we need to make sure that at least one member of the team is with them both at all times", Reid said, "if needed we can take shifts while the rest of the team is working on the case".
Hotch came back into the room and said, "the doctors said that it was alright for us to sit up in here and they are gonna put Jack and Emily in the same room". Derek helped Pen set up her babies and just as soon as she got them set up she said, "guys I have several videos that have popped up",
Hotch said, "open the first one Penelope and lets see what breadcrumbs they have sent us", she loaded the first video and pushed play and the team couldn't believe what they were watching.
Hotch leaned forward and said, "ohhhhhhh my god those sick bastards taped everything that happened today at the park", the team leaned in and watched helplessly as they saw Emily get shot and they watched as Jack got hit by the car. Hotch slammed his hand on the table and said, "those bastards hit my baby, they are the ones that tried to kill Jack".
Reid leaned in and said, "back it up Garcia", she backed it up and he said, "stop it right there", Derek leaned in and said, "what do you see kid",
he pointed to the screen and said, "that, do you see it"?
