Hearing Roxannes phone ring at 3am the next morning Tyler picked it up having been woken by the sound. "Hey Penelope." He greeted.
"Hey, is Roxanne there?" She asked, having to tell her about a sudden case that had come in.
"She's sleeping, but I can wake her up." He responded. "Why? Do you guys have a case?" He asked.
"Yep. The dream team has been called in."
"Ok." Tyler replied trying not to laugh. "I'll wake her."
"Thankyou." Garcia replied.
Tyler sighed, he didn't want to wake her up, he knew how tired she had been lately. "Roxy baby..." He said gently, hoping she would just wake up at that.
"Is it a case?" She asked, having been almost awake when Garcia and Tyler were talking on the phone.
"Yes honey, it is." He responded, kissing her before she brushed through her hair and changed, shoving some clean clothes in her Go Bag before heading out of the door.
"Sorry guys." Roxanne apologized, being the last to board the jet with the exception of Blake who wasn't traveling with them at the moment.
"Is everyone here?" Blake asked from the webcam.
"Yep, hey where's Pen?" Roxanne asked.
"Morning sickness." Blake replied before briefing them on the case.
They had a killer on a spree. Three body's in two days, blunt force trauma to the head and kidney removal. They were all between 14 and 15. They assumed this Killer was an adolescent.
"Eyeless Jack." Roxanne said, noticing the mask a witness had seen him wearing.
"What?" Hotch asked, the rest of the agents also looked quite confused.
"Dana draws him all the time, he's this creepy pasta." Roxanne explained.
"Ok, so what is the story of eyeless Jack?" Morgan asked.
"Hey eats kidneys... but that's all I know." She explained.
"Blake, do you know how to to a google search on Garia's computer system?" Hotch asked as Garcia had not come back.
"Uh, yes... what do you need?" She asked.
"Eyeless Jack." Hotch replied, hoping this wasn't some crazy fan thing that was going on in Arkansas.
"Sure thing." Blake replied and searched; coming across the creepypasta story, fanfictions and imiges drawn and uploaded onto sites such as tumblr and deviant art. Sending some files over Blake decided to read through some of the information herself.
"Woah Eyeless Jack?" Garcia asked, coming back in.
"Yep, they think we have someone who's either got a major case of psychosis or an over obsessed fan." Blake replied before pausing and noticing how pale Garcia looked. "Are you ok?" She asked concerned. Her own morning sickness having been very bad with Clara she knew how Garcia was feeling.
"Yeah... Just constantly fighting the urge to vomit." She replied sighing. "When will this hell end?" She asked.
"I don't know. It varies. Mine lasted the whole pregnancy..." She replied honestly and before Garcia had a chance to reply continued on with. "But most peoples stop after the first trimester and at week 16 at the latest."
"How did you cope with it for the whole time?" Garcia asked in shock.
"I was prescribed medication." Blake replied. "Stopped me from actually throwing up as much."
"Ah well that's good then." She replied.
"Practically saved my life." Blake replied. "Hey you should go to the doctor and see if they will give you anything." Blake advised having noticed how much Garcia was being effected by it.
"I guess. Is it safe for the babies?" She asked, unsure about taking any form of medication incase it harmed the twins she was expecting.
"Well Clara turned out fine so it must be and medicine has come on a lot more since then anyway." Blake responded.
"Ok, good." Garcia replied, it was clear she wasn't her usual self even to someone who wasn't a profiler.
On the Jet the rest of the team were going to land in Arkansas in 25 minutes. Doing up their belts for landing, Hotch told everyone where they would be going upon landing. Roxanne and Reid to the families homes; to interview and look around the now dead teens rooms. Morgan and JJ to the dumpsite located deep in the forest. Hotch and Rossi would set up at the local police station, see if they could collect any more information about this Creepy pasta thing. If there were any local legends to do with any of it going around.
"Reid make sure Roxanne eats something." Hotch ordered.
Roxanne sighed, it seemed after starting to take the iron supplements she had lost her appetite even more and just felt nauseous all the time. He knew her mother had told him to keep her safe but to the point of making sure she was eating was a bit too far.
"Rox you are alright arn't you?" Reid asked as they were getting into the car.
"Spencer, I'm fine." Roxanne replied. "I just really don't have an appetite and these Iron supplements are making it worse" She explained.
"Try taking them with or an hour after food or half the recommended dosage." Reid advised her. "Anyway, Hotch told me to make sure you ate something so if you want both of us in the doghouse then don't otherwise I suggest it's a good idea." Reid explained, slightly scared of what Hotch would do if he found Reid hadn't followed his orders.
Roxanne sighed and got a Granola bar out of her bag. "You know he's only being like this because he has orders to keep me safe." Roxanne told Reid while eating the Granola bar.
"Emily?" He asked, knowing she was her mom.
"Yep. Just before the Doyle fiasco she said to keep me safe, you know if anything was to ever happen. And then when she left for London, again she said to look after me." She explained, putting the story in brief.
Arriving at the first victim's house the two got out of the car and knocked on the door. They never knew what to expect from grieving parents, some would help the agents and others would have nothing to do with it.
"Hello, this is Dr Reid and I am Agent Masson, FBI." Roxanne greeted the parents. "Do you mind if we ask a few questions, about your daughter?" She asked.
Fortunately the parents were willing to talk, after interviewing the parents they looked around Rose's room. Her desk and draws were quite messy however the floor was fairly clean, her laptop was sitting on her bed; where the two agents guessed she was when she used it last.
"Hey Roxanne." Blake answered the phone.
"Hey is Garcia there?" She asked, needing her to look into internet history of the IP Address.
"What do you need Rox?" Garcia asked.
"I need you too look at the internet history for this IP Address." Roxanne told her before reading out the IP.
"Easy, I'll be back with you soon!" Garcia replied before getting to work.
"Rox are you feeling alright?" Reid asked after they had left the first victims house, she had seemed pale and pained for the whole of that interview and Reid could tell it was interfering with her focus.
"It's just the damn supplements." Roxanne replied. "I'm fine, they make me feel a bit weird, that's all."
"Ok, If your sure..." Reid replied as the got into the car and drove the short way to the next house.
After interviewing the parents and looking round the last two houses they found all girls had gone out for a run in the forest prior to their murder and that they all seemed like athletic and academically talented good kids.
After arriving at the police station the agents shared the information they had discovered and come up with a few theories. They figured that the UnSub they were looking for was a white male between the ages of 14 and 18, recently been excluded from Upper Rigdeford high school. It was likely he loved in a single parent household and that that parent works a full time Job, either long or unpredictable hours; maybe both. He was a definite problem child quite possibly in a psychotic break.
A few hours later another body had been found, in the same area. Another girl, age 15; walking her dog.
"Reid how long until it gets dark?" Hotch asked, uncertain of whether or not to send a couple of the team to the latest dump site.
"Uh 3 hours and 15 minutes." Reid replied, looking up at the clock in the room that they were based in.
"Ok. Roxanne, Morgan go to the latest dump site." Hotch ordered.
"What's going on with you Rox?" Morgan asked while they were driving to the dump site.
"Why do you think somethings going on with me?" She responded.
"I don't know. Because Hotch seems more protective of you than ever, you've not been acting yourself. Somethings going on." Morgan replied. "You can't hide things from profilers Rox. You know that."
"Personal issues." She replied sighing.
"Ok, well I won't ask but if you want to talk..." Morgan continued.
"Thankyou Morgan, for not forcing it out of me... and offering to talk." She replied.
"It's ok Rox."
Arriving at the site not too far from all the other sites Morgan and Roxanne looked around, noticing how the body was placed, how again there seemed to be no sign of the missing kidney. This girl was also like the others. Fit, athletic and no taller than 5'4.
"He must be killing them somewhere in this area, even if he is very psychically fit carrying dead weight is hard." Roxanne mentioned, having looked at the map of the dump site earlier they all centered around a point with a one mile radius.
"In a cave..." Morgan added, realizing a cave would be the perfect place for this UnSub to hide out. "We should check this out tomorrow, it will get dark soon." He replied knowing Hotch wouldn't like them to be searching down UnSubs in caves in the dark.
Before heading to the hotel to get some rest for the night they got Garcia to get up a list of students living in single parent homes who have previously been excluded or suspended. Surprisingly it was quite a large list when it came to narrowing down to find the one UnSub. They would have to wait in the morning, see if they can find that missing piece which would complete the puzzle.
"Please get that coffee away from me." Garcia groaned when Blake walked into her office the next morning.
"Hello to you too and sorry." Blake replied and went to her desk in the bullpen to drink her Coffee and do some work on case files while she was there.
Meanwhile the rest of the team were searching the woods for a possible cave in the area within a one mile radius of all of the dump sites. "I've found something." Hotch called and waited to the rest of his team to Catch up before going down into the cave which was cool and dark.
"Is that?" Roxanne asked, noticing half eaten kidneys from the victims.
"Half eaten kidney's." Reid finished, you can tell they have been cooked and that he did not bite directly into them, he used a knife or some other sharp utensil to cut them.
Heading further into the cave it grew colder and darker. "We have a body." Morgan exclaimed and stood over the body of a girl no older than ten.
"We should press for an ID on this, she could be related to out UnSub." Rossi said, looking at the body of the young girl.
Roxanne headed out of the cave for a cell signal to call in forensics experts as some evidence of the UnSub may have been left in the cave, she also called Garcia and got her to look up missing persons records to see if they could find the girl.
"It's bad isn't it." Blake said coming back into Garcia's office to help with the case.
"Yep, they found the body a 10 year old girl." Garcia replied, recalling what she had just found out."We're waiting on an identification but it's been narrowed down to a possibility of 5 girls fitting the age who have been reported missing in the state and body's never found.
A few hours later they had an identification on the body. Melissa Smith, went missing from her Auntie's house, less than a mile from the forest, three weeks ago.
"Baby girl, could you look up Melissa's cousins, brothers..." Morgan told Garcia over the phone after an identification had been made.
"She's an only child but she had one cousin. Alex Smith." Garcia told him. "Currently resides at his mothers house, I'll send the Address over now." She told him.
Morgan, Rossi, Hotch and JJ headed out to catch Alex. "Morgan, JJ knock on the door. The mother should be in if not Alex aswell. We'll go round back." Hotch ordered.
Heading into the house, the mom thought he was in his room, but he wasn't. The agents realised he must have escaped from the window and gone into the forest, hopefully not to find another victim. JJ sat and talked to the mom, tried to calm her down as she was clearly very shocked and distraught to hear her son was a serial killer.
Morgan, Rossi and Hotch were running through the woods, they seperated - trying to find him. Rossi was the one who found Alex, he was waiting out for his next victim. Handcuffing him from behind he then called in the other three. Another solved case for the BAU.
So I have a lot planned for this fic! The next chapter will hopefully include a BBQ at Rossi's. I don't know when it will be up., we'll see when it gets finished. Just a pre-warning I am going away next week! And will be gone monday-friday. I will also be quite busy for the next four weeks so i may not beable to update as frequently as I may hope but I have some chapters plannned out.
