A/N: I'm so evil about that cliffhanger, lol. This chapter is a little graphic at the end. Please, if you are uncomfortable or easy triggered by rape, please don't read the end of this chapter. This is one of the only scenes in this story that is graphic.
Chapter 15
JJ POV
As we finally escaped the plane after yet another long flight, I watched as Hotch answered his phone and stayed behind as we all continued to walk. I paused too, seeing the concerned look in my boss' face.
Once I stopped, others turned and looked back as well.
"Who do you think bossman is talking to?" Derek asked as he walked next to me. "He looks upset."
The phone call wasn't long. Hotch hung up a few minutes after he picked up. He noticed that we were all staring and so he hurried over to us. The always stoic looking man continued to appear upset. Which worried me as well.
"New plan, we aren't going to the precinct," Hotch said when he caught up with us. "Emily was taken."
"What?" I asked as we all tried to understand what he had possibly meant by his statement.
"I don't know all the details. Detective Tyburczy just called me and told me that someone crashed into them and took Prentiss while they were both unconscious. Tyburczy woke up and Prentiss was gone. We are going to the crash scene."
I looked around. Everyone else was just as stunned as I was. This was my fear. And like a nightmare, it was becoming true.
"Is the detective okay?" Rossi asked as we all almost ran to our vehicle.
"Only a concussion," Hotch explained. "We are going to meet her and her team there. But I don't know how much help she will be. She sounded hysterical. She doesn't know why she wasn't taken instead." I wanted to know the answer to that question as well. It wasn't Emily's case.
"Do we know for certain that this is connected to the case?" Spence asked.
"I'm not sure," Hotch answered. "But we have to consider it very carefully. This isn't just a coincidence."
I nodded. That was certain.
Emily POV
I woke up with an extreme headache. I groaned as I tried to open my eyes. As my eyes started to flutter open, I remembered what had happened. I remembered that I was in an accident. So when I opened my eyes, I was horrified by the fact that I wasn't in a hospital. I was inside some⦠room.
I wasn't in chains. My clothes were still on. I didn't look like I was beaten other than the from the accident. I reached up and touched my head. I winced from the pain. I looked and saw the blood on my hands. I was obviously injured.
I tried to get up, but I immediately felt dizzy. My head pounded in pain. I felt nauseous. I felt broken.
Normally, my fight or flight instincts would have kicked in. Normally, I would be thriving on adrenaline, doing whatever I could to get out of this room. I had a feeling that the door was locked, and the walls were metallic. There was no way out. I knew I would have to wait for someone to come in. I had to wait for the new leader of the Family to come see me.
I attempted to try to open the door, but I could barely move. My head felt like it was being sliced open. I wondered if something was wrong with my brain. I realized that I could have been drugged. This wasn't how I ever thought I would react to this situation.
I laid down on the only piece of furniture in the room, the bed I woke up on. If I wanted any chance to fight, I needed some strength. And I needed to not be dizzy when I got up.
I couldn't help but close my eyes. Sleep overwhelmed me.
"You're a very pretty girl, Emily," Daddy whispered as he climbed into my bed. "I'm going to be very jealous when all the boys want to be with you."
I looked up at the glow-in-the-dark stars on my ceiling. When daddy gave me all these compliments, I knew not to reply. He never wanted me to talk. I looked at the stars and curled my fingers around my bedspread so that it could tether me to the ground. I stared and stared, doing everything I could to stay quiet.
I let my body feel numb to it all. If I didn't hear daddy moaning, I wouldn't have known he was doing anything at all.
I know that didn't explain much! In the next few chapters, things will become clearer, I promise.
Thanks for reading! Reviews are super welcome! :)
