Hotch PoV.
    It was about forty-five minutes after Emily had left and no one had seen her. I checked her desk where I saw her jacket, purse and phone. Knowing how many people Doyle had working for him I grew worried and had Garcia check the security footage where I saw that she was in the bathroom but never came out. I made my way there and knocked on the door.
"Hey Emily?" I asked through the door and could hear a small voice on the other side.
Emily PoV
"Get rid of him, or I do for good" The woman whispered in my ear as she pointed the gun to the door.
"Em are you alright?" Hotch asked and I hesitated but once the gun was back on me I spoke.
"Uh- ye-yeah, I'm fine, just not feeling too well," I responded but I could tell that he didn't believe me.
"Do you need anything?" He asked again and the gun grew deeper into my body.
"No go away Aaron" I yelled in a snappy way. I felt the pressure of the gun relax. I felt bad for the things I said and how I said them.
"Where is he, where's Declan?" I asked, turning around to face the other brunette.
"If you give me Ian, I will give you Declan." The woman explained and a pit formed in my stomach.
"I can't give you Ian, he is a criminal" I stated
"And I'm going to be the one who kills him, he tortured me and held me as a hostage for nine months while I was pregnant with Declan, I tried to end it all but he just ended up tying me to a chair. Everyday he would have the maid bring me food and a freaking vitamin, just so I would have a clone of that son of a bitch. As soon as Declan was born I ran and I never looked back, because what Ian did to me was more than awful, and he is going to pay. If you don't take me to him I will shoot my way out" She explained and pointed the gun at me.
"I- Let me go talk to my boss, I will see what I can do, because shooting your way out won't work. This is the FBI, we all have guns and there is no way that you will win." I replied then she put the gun in my back once more.
"I am your friend Elise from college, you are going to take me to meet your boss" She said and I quickly went along with it, hoping not to actually die this time. She hid the gun with her arm and we walked out of the bathroom.

    I left the door of the women's bathroom and I felt defeated. Emily snapped, but why? I went back to my office and fifteen minutes later I saw Emily walk in. She wasn't alone but at first I didn't notice.
"Hey Babe" I exclaimed as I looked up to see her face, but then another brunette made themselves visible and closed the door then shut the blinds and I began to get confused as I saw the uncomfortable look in Emily's eyes.
Reid PoV
    I saw Emily leading someone who looked very similar to her to Hotch's office. She looked strange and the way they walked it was almost as if they were a couple. It wasn't just the similarity to Emily but the brunette looked more familiar, she was... she was... Oh my god, Emily's in trouble. I quickly got the team together and told them what was going on. I quickly looked at the beautiful blonde next to me and it felt like everything was lifted off my shoulders as our hands lightly brushed past the other and once it was over reality had come back and Emily was in trouble.
Emily PoV
    I watched "Elise" close the blinds and Aaron looked at me like "What the hell is going on?" but I knew I couldn't tell him.
"Uh-Aaron, this is Elise, she is my friend from college" I hesitated and he could see it. My fiance walked closer and put his hand out for the other brunette, but he saw the gun and pulled his out.
"Make one move and I will kill you!" He exclaimed with madness and I sighed with relief and fear at the same time.
"Don't shoot her, she has Declan" I said and I could see the difficulty of the choice in his eyes.
"She's right, if you shoot me, Declan dies" She laughed then I heard the door to the office open and I turned, a gunshot went off,
"Emily" Hotch yelled as another gunshot went off.
    I looked over at the woman and she was on the floor with blood all over her, she had been shot in the stomach.
"No!" I yelled and knelt down beside her.
"Where is he? Where's Declan?" I asked upsettingly and madly.
"You'll never find him" She laughed with her last breath then fell lifeless back to the floor.
"No, No!" I screamed and broke down to tears not realizing that I was hit, it was small but still hurt. Hotch came over to me and held me back from the lifeless body of Declan's mother.
