Ghost Whisperer
I own nothing
This is after the Series Finale
"Emily, you need to stop." Morgan said outside after their run. "You don't have the energy or the strength."
"He needs to know that I'm not backing down." Emily stated.
"He knows." Breanna sighed. "You have already hurt your ankle, how you managed a run is beyond me, but don't hurt yourself more."
"Never give up." Emily told them. "How many times have we told ourselves to never give up after a loss in a game or something not going our way?" No one spoke. "I'm not going to stop."
"You'll be punished, again." Jennifer stated, before coughing. "You're just as sick as Morgan and I, and we've been here longer than you."
"I'll take it." Emily coughed. "I'm still working on getting us out of here." The Unsub approached the four girls.
"Begin." The Unsub said. Breanna, Morgan and Jennifer went off to their designated training spots. Emily did not move. "I said begin."
"No." Emily told him. "I'm not going to train for you. I'm not going to do it." The Unsub slapped Emily across the face. Emily froze, slightly taken aback. The Unsub grabbed Emily's wrist and pulled her close. Emily looked straight into the Unsubs' eyes.
"You will be punished." The Unsub said slowly. "Extremely punished."
"You don't scare me." Emily said back. The Unsub pushed Emily back and she fell to the ground.
"Go." Emily slowly got up, glaring at the Unsub. Emily stood there for a few seconds before heading to her training spot.
"The school has been warned." JJ said, joining Reid back at the station. "Let's hope it will help."
"I've pinned our five suspects addresses and looked into the distance from their place to both abduction sites." Red said. "Rossi and Prentiss are still talking to families."
"With some of those families on the opposite side of Grandview, they may be on it all day." Hotch stated.
"We're at another stop." Morgan sighed. "Now what?"
"I hate to say it, but we need…" JJ paused. "Another abduction. We need more clues." The office phone went off.
"What have you got Garcia?" Hotch answered.
"Something fishy about Carlos Hartford." Garcia stated. "Carlos has been associated with three of our five possible suspects.
"Which three?" Morgan asked.
"Mike Bryson, Natalie Thompson and John Edgar." Hotch grabbed his phone.
"Dave; Mike Bryson, Natalie Thompson and John Edgar have all been associated with Carlos Hartford." Hotch told Rossi.
"We'll see what we can dig up." Rossi said. "We've talked to the Martinez and the Larson families. We're heading to the Thompson's house now." Rossi said on the other line.
"Keep us posted." Hotch said. They hung up.
"Garcia, do you know why three of our suspects were associated with Carlos Hartford?" Morgan asked.
"Guess who was pulled over and given a DUI by one of our suspects." Garcia said.
"Carlos Hartford?" JJ asked.
"JJ, you are good." Garcia said. "John Edgar is the cop that pulled him over."
"And the others?" Morgan asked.
"Mike Bryson went to school with him and Natalie worked with him while using the trailer company."
"Thanks Garcia." Hotch said, hanging up the phone.
"So, should we go talk to him?" Morgan asked.
"We'll see what Rossi and Prentiss can find out." Hotch said. "Then we'll bring him in."
"The FBI stopped by this morning?" Melinda told Delia, Eli, Rick and Ned at lunch.
"What did they want?" Ned asked.
"They wanted to tell us," Melinda paused. "That they would find Emily alive." Melinda smiled. "They said that she and the others were chosen because of support."
"So she'll be ok." Delia said.
"She'll be alive." Melinda stated. "They can't guess what state they will find her in, but she'll be alive."
"That's good then, right?" Ned asked.
"Yes." Melinda smiled.
"Jim must be happy to hear that." Eli said.
"He is." Melinda said. "Aiden too." Melinda grabbed something from her bag. "Aiden drew this, this morning." Melinda showed Rick, Ned, Delia and Eli the picture that Aiden drew this morning. "These six are Emily and the others." Melinda explained. "These two are looking out for the others."
"But only four have been kidnapped." Rick stated quietly. "Why six?"
"Are two more going to be kidnapped?" Delia asked in a whisperer.
"Maybe." Melinda put the picture back in her bag. "I'm hoping that the "two" who have been looking out for the girls are ghosts, so Emily can send for help." Everyone nodded in agreement.
The Unsub had brought Breanna, Jennifer and Morgan back to the barn, keeping Emily with him. After a while, the Unsub returned with Emily, who was soaking wet, and shivering. The Unsub put Emily in with Breanna and left.
"Emily!" Breanna exclaimed quietly. "What happened?"
"I ran laps, got dunked in ice water a couple times, ran some more. Nothing new." Emily said, her teeth chattering.
"You're freezing." Breanna said, wrapping Emily in a hug. Breanna grabbed the old think blanket that they shared and wrapped Emily up.
"Why did he end our session early?" Morgan asked, worried.
"He's getting two more." Emily chattered. "Otherwise, he would have kept me longer."
Morgan was working on some paperwork at the station. Hotch was on the phone with Prentiss and Rossi. Reid was still working on the geographical profile. JJ was helping him.
"See you soon." Hotch said, hanging up the phone.
"Prentiss and Rossi on their way back?" Morgan asked.
"Yes. They will be back shortly." Hotch said as an officer came rushing in.
"Two 911 calls just came in." The officer said. "Two girls have gone missing, one blonde. One brunette." The officer explained. "They weren't taken from the school though. They were both on their way home."
"JJ, Morgan. Head to the crime scene. Reid and I will talk to families and witnesses." Hotch said. "We are shorthanded until Prentiss and Rossi return." JJ and Morgan headed off to the crime scene with a few officers. Hotch and Reid retrieved names and headed out.
The Unsub returned with two girls, one brunette, one blonde. He dumped ice water on the girls and they jolted awake.
"What's going on?" One said.
"Why are we here?" Said the other.
"There are a few rules." The Unsub said. "Do not try to run. Do not disobey. Do not talk back to me." The Unsub said. "Breaking these rules will result in punishment." The Unsub walked to where Emily and Breanna were being held. He grabbed Emily and brought her out. "We have a punishment to finish."
The Unsub returned Emily about an hour later. He put her back in with Breanna before leaving.
"Emily?" Breanna asked.
"Same as before." Emily started coughing.
"Maybe you should stop." Breanna stated.
"You broke his rules?" The brunette asked.
"Yes Heather, but Emily has her reasons." Jennifer said.
"Will you be ok?" The blonde asked.
"Yes Katie. She'll be fine." Breanna said, grabbing the blanket and wrapping Emily in it. "Emily's not one who gives up." Suddenly two ghosts appear.
"You have to stop." Miranda said.
"Faith. Miranda, you have to get help." Emily said weakly. "My Aunt Melinda will let the police know."
"But your safety is important." Miranda stated.
"In and out. That's all you need to do." Emily said slowly. "Please." Emily begged.
"Ok." Faith said. "I'll go, Miranda will stay." Faith disappeared. Emily smiled slightly.
"Emily, are you ok?"
"Help is on its way." Emily said softly, before closing her eyes.
"Have a nice day." Melinda said to the last customer of the day. Faith appeared to Melinda.
"I don't have much time." Faith said quickly. Melinda turned. "Your niece, Emily, sent me." This got Melinda's attention. "Faith and Miranda Miller." Faith disappeared.
"Melinda, is everything ok?" Delia asked when she walked in. "Ghost?" Melinda turned and looked at Delia before grabbing her bag.
"Yes, one that just told me where Emily and the others are." Melinda stated. Delia froze. "Can you close up the shop for me? I'm going to tell the FBI what I know."
"Of course." Delia said. "What are you going to tell them?"
"What I can." Melinda said, hurrying out the door.
Faith appeared to Emily. "It is done." Emily tried to smile. "The FBI is coming."
"Thank-you." Emily said.
"Thank you for what?" Breanna asked.
"The FBI is coming to rescue us." Emily said. "I told you, I would getting us out of here."
"I'll believe it when I see it." Breanna started coughing.
"It'll happen." Emily said. "Trust me."
Morgan and JJ returned from the crime scene and continued to work on the case, adding new information on the board. Melinda walked into the station and walked straight to Morgan.
"I know where the girls are." Melinda said. Morgan looked at Melinda. This got JJ's attention too. "No time to explain how I know, but look into Faith and Miranda Miller." Morgan grabbed his phone.
"Hey Mama."
"I predicted a phone call, but I would have never guessed that it would be from such a handsome hunk of chocolate." This made Morgan smile. JJ's phone rang and she answered it.
"Garcia, I need you to work your magic." Morgan said. "Look into some names for me. Faith and Miranda Miller."
"Alrighty." Morgan listened to typing on Garcia's end of the phone. "Oh my…"
"Garcia." JJ looked up at Morgan when she hung up her phone.
"That was Hotch. All five of our suspects' alibis checked out." JJ said. "Hotch and Reid are on their way back."
"Faith and Miranda Miller were killed in a car crash on August 16th, 2015." Garcia said. "They were twins, 17 years old. Faith had brown hair and Miranda had…"
"Blonde." Morgan guessed.
"Right. Both girls were active in sports. Soccer, Basketball, Softball, they were the best."
"Tell me you've got an address Garcia."
"Sending it to your phone now." Garcia said.
"You are a goddess woman." Morgan said.
"Don't I know it." Garcia and Morgan hung up.
"JJ we got an address." Morgan said as Reid and Hotch entered the station, followed shortly by Prentiss and Rossi.
"We've got an address." Morgan told them. Hotch looked at his team.
"Let's go." Melinda watched them go.
The BAU, the Grandview Police and an Ambulance drove out to the country to the exact location of the coordinates that Garcia had sent them. All of the cars parked. The police and the six BAU members got out of their vehicles with Kevlar vests on.
"We need to spread out." Hotch said as everyone pulled into the drive of the Miller house. "Morgan and JJ, head towards the barn." Hotch said. "Rossi and Spencer, head inside. Prentiss and I will walk around. Take a few uniforms with you. Our main priority is to find their girls and bring them back safely."
"How can you be sure they are still alive?" A new officer asked.
"He's finding new wouldn't kill them." Rossi stated.
"Split up." Hotch nodded and went their separate ways.
"Did you hear that?" Heather asked. "Someone's out there."
"Help!" Katie yelled.
"Keep quiet." Breanna coughed. "You don't want to get punished." Breanna stated.
"Yeah, looked at Emily." Jennifer said weakly. "She's as sick as she is because she was punished for breaking the rules." The barn door opened and Morgan and JJ walked into the barn with their guns drawn.
"We're in here." Katie said.
"Hotch, we've got them." JJ said into his walkie-talkie. Morgan and JJ put their guns away.
"We're with the FBI. We're here to take you home." Morgan said.
"Really?" Breanna asked, looking at Emily. Two uniforms took Katie and Heather out of the barn. JJ went over to Jennifer and Morgan. JJ and an officer helped Jennifer and Morgan out and out to the ambulance. Morgan went over to Breanna and Emily.
"My names Derek Morgan and I'm going to get you out of here." Morgan said.
"Emily hurt her ankle; she can barely walk after that man made her constantly use it." Breanna said as Morgan helped her up. Morgan handed Breanna to the officer behind him. The officer brought Breanna out. Morgan picked up Emily.
"So you got my message." Emily said weakly. Morgan looked confused. "Melinda didn't tell you." Emily closed her eyes. "I'll explain everything in time." Morgan carried Emily out of the barn and towards the ambulance. "Not the ambulance, please." Emily said. "I don't like riding in them."
"You need to be looked at."
"Just take me to my Uncle Jim. He's a doctor in Grandview." Morgan thought for a second, than looked over at the officer next to him.
"Grab the door." Morgan said, motioning to the SUV. The officer opened the door and Morgan set Emily in the back.
"Morgan," Hotch said, walking up to him, Rossi and Reid behind him. "What are you doing?"
"She refuses to ride in the ambulance and I'm not in the mood to argue." Morgan explained. "I'm taking her to the hospital in Grandview myself."
"Take Reid with you." Hotch said. "JJ and Prentiss are heading back with Katie and Heather to the police station."
"We found Tracy Miller inside the house. We're taking her in for questioning." Rossi said. "It's too dark to get a real good look around. We should return tomorrow." Rossi said. Reid climbed into the passenger seat of the SUV. Morgan grabbed Emily a blanket while an EMT checked her over. Morgan wrapped Emily up, making sure she was settled, before climbing into the driver's seat of the SUV. Rossi and Hotch got in the second SUV. Morgan led the way to Grandview with the siren and lights going off.
"Alright Emily talk me. Stay awake." Morgan said. "You said Melinda didn't tell us everything, but you will. Tell me the message you said we received."
"You need an open mind." Emily said. "I have a gift, one my aunt Melinda has as well." Emily coughed. "We can see and speak to the dead. We can see and speak to ghosts."
"Ok, you've got my attention."
"Morgan, it is physically impossible." Reid said.
"A nonbeliever, just like everyone is." Emily managed to smile slightly. "I'm not here to make you believe. I don't really have the strength to try, but listen, Faith and Miranda appeared to me."
"Morgan, Ghosts are not real." Reid stated. "Newton's law of physics states that a body at rest stays in rest until it's subjected to an external force and for every action there is an equal, but opposite reaction." Reid explained. "Meaning that if the ghost walks, it should apply force to the ground, so that will apply an equal and opposite force that pushes the ghost forward, meaning the ghost would be made of matter, not energy and if they are not made of energy, then they can't go through walls." Reid rambled. "Then there is the chill effect, again Physics..."
"Sometimes, Boy Genius, science can lie." Morgan said.
"The chill effect is not true, nor is the walk through walls. They just appear and disappear and appear how they died in most cases." Emily coughed. "Faith and Miranda are two teenage girls who died in a car crash. Faith played softball and Miranda played soccer. Both girls played Basketball. Faith had brown hair, Miranda had blonde hair. The person driving in the crash was Miranda." Emily closed her eyes.
"Stay awake Emily. Talk to me." Morgan said. "You speak to ghosts, who delivered your message."
"Faith Miller." Emily opened her eyes. "Faith and Miranda came to me, stayed with us and protected us. I can see and talk to spirits, or ghosts. I convinced one of them to go to my aunt, Melinda, and tell her out location, to help us more than just protection us." Emily explained.
"Emily, can you tell us what happened?" Reid asked. "What do you remember from the day you were kidnapped?"
"I was finished getting ready for tennis practice, everyone else had left for the tennis courts. I left the locker room and I was approached by this guy and he hand a needle in his hand." Emily coughed. "He grabbed my arm and I tried to get away, but he put the needle in my shoulder, and that as the last thing I remembered, until I woke to ice water being dumped on my head in the barn."
"What happened after you woke up?" Morgan asked.
"The next day, we trained." Emily coughed again. "We trained for hours everyday." Emily closed her eyes. "He gave rules, but I broke them."
"What kind of rules?" Morgan asked.
"Don't try to run. Don't talk back, don't disobey." Emily said. "I refused to do what he asked. I talked back and refused to listen. I got punished."
"Why? You didn't know he was going to do with you." Reid stated.
"He wasn't going to hurt us on purpose." Emily said. "I had to test him, and I had to show him that I wasn't going to back down."
"Your profiled him." Reid said as Emily yawned.
"Stay awake, Emily. Keep talking." Morgan said. "Tell us about your family." Emily forced her eyes open.
"What's there to tell." Emily stated. "Both my parents are dead. I have a stepmom who doesn't care. A stepbrother and sister that I love. I live with my uncle Jim, his wife Melinda and their son Aiden. That's about it."
"That's good. Keep talking. Do you see your sister and brother often?"
"No, they live 3 hours away." Emily explained, coughing. "My Uncle Jim was my rightful guardian and I would rather live with my Uncle Jim anyway." Emily yawned and her eyes started to close.
"Stay with us Emily." Morgan said as he drove faster, getting close to Grandview.
"I'm tired."
"I know, but if you stay awake, you'll get to see your Uncle Jim." Emily kept her eyes closed. "Emily?" There was no reply. Reid looked back at Emily. Morgan started driving even faster.
This Story is after Close Callings.
Sorry it took so long to finally post again. I have had a very hectic year. As of this month, I have graduated from college, so my work load should be less. I am hoping to start posting more frequently. I am currently trying to get everything settled down and I am hoping that I can start posting chapters close to once a week soon. I have many people asking me for updates and a friend of mine said he will keep pushing me! It feels great to be back!
Thanks all for the support you have given me!
