Chapter 10: Missing Agent
Hotch, analyst Kevin Lycnh, and Reid rushed to Garcia's office.
"Garcia, we need you off this case, now!" Hotch barked.
"Wha-what?" Garcia asked.
"Plum sauce," Kevin said, "just go home."
"Wha..what is this about?" Garcia asked, concerned.
"We think the unsub may be Derek Morgan," Hotch said.
"No," Garcia whispered, "you're wrong!"
"It makes sense," Reid said, "he was fired from is job, didn't like Grace-"
"Reid!" Hotch exclaimed.
"Oh, god!" Garcia exclaimed.
"Garcia," Hotch said in a softer tone, "go home. Get some rest."
"No!" Garcia exclaimed, "look at the screen! Grace!" Hotch and Reid rushed over. A hooded man broke in to the bullpen and knocked out Grace.
"Son of a-" Hotch exclaimed, "how did he get in?"
"I don't know sir," Garcia stammered. Just then, the man took off his hood. Right in front of the screen was none other than former B.A.U agent Derek Morgan.
"My Chocolate Adonis, why are you doing this?!" Garcia exclaimed.
"This is his way of getting revenge," Reid said, "go back to where it all began."
"He's taunting us," Hotch said, fighting to maintain control, "he wants us to know that he has Grace!"
"Why did he take her?" Garcia asked.
"Because he wants to get to me. He wants to make sure Grace 'pays' for what she did,"
"But she didn't do anything!"
"In his mind, she did. She did something by being the daughter of my arch nemisis."
"That doesn't make sense!" Garcia exclaimed.
"It only has to make sense to him. Go home, Garica," Hotch said, "I know this is hard to believe. I can...barely believe it either."
"No, no. I want to help."
Hotch sighed.
"Alright. You and Kevin go through every security footage and figure out how he got in. We need to locate Rossi and JJ." Just then, Rossi and JJ came storming in,
"There's been a security breech!" Rossi said.
"Grace has been kidnapped," Hotch said, "he has her!" The sound of Hotch's phone ringing drowned out all the other sounds.
"Hotchner."
"Hotch, Hotch, Hotch," Morgan taunted, "your damn ego's done it again! Isn't that what old George told you?"
"Where is she?" Hotch growled in a tone that made the others step back, "WHERE IS SHE YOU SON OF A BITCH?"
"It runs in the family, doesn't it?" Hotch could hear the sound of a car driving.
"What runs in the family?"
"Oh, I'm just giving her what she deserves."
"You're no better, Morgan. You're a serial killer, too."
"At least you still had a job afterwards!"
"You tell me where she is," Hotch growled, dangerously, "or I swear to God I will kill you."
"Just like you did with George Foyet. Are you scared? You should be." Then, Hotch heard a click. The team stood still.
"Did he say where he had her?"
"No, but I know where we're going."
The team looked confused.
"He mentioned how I killed George Foyet after Haley died."
"He's trying to recreate that scenario," Rossi said.
"He's going to our old house. Let's go!"
