The Heart Of A Genius (A Criminal Minds Fan Fic)

Chapter 13: The Fight Ring Pt1

~Mercy POV~

It's been months since our last case and we were filled to the brim with paper work. These past months my friendship with Reid had gotten stronger and Morgan being Morgan always teases us (especially Reid) about our friendship. I was doing my paper work when Reid came up to my desk holding two cups of coffee

"Hey Spence!" I say , he smiled

" I made you a cup of coffee!" I smile as he handed me a cup of coffee

"Thank you so much Reid." I say, he smiled and made his was to his desk which was conveniently located next to mine

"How are Mr. and Mrs. Spencer Reid?" Morgan says teasingly

"I'm doing great baby boy!" I say, Morgan shot me a look

"Everyone in the conference room NOW!" Hotch ordered. I stood in awe at his urgency what's going on? I thought. I quickly entered the conference room and sat down next to JJ

"Ok my lovelies 9 women were kidnapped in the state of Louisiana, 4 of them were found beaten to death in different parts of the state." Garcia explained

"Why weren't we called in sooner?" I asked

"The police weren't able to make a connection and when they did they found out that all of the victims were kidnapped by an underground fight ring." Garcia explained

"Well were defiantly looking at a large group of unsubs." I state

"Garcia you will be joining us on this case. Wheels up in 30." Hotch ordered

                                                                                         *****

Garcia stood in awe as she boarded the plane

"You guys need to let me fly with you more often." She said,

"Baby girl clam down and take seat." I couldn't help but giggle at the way they were treating each other

"Ok Garcia can you everything you know about our victims." Hotch ordered

"Ok from what I've gathered all of the victims went to gym regularly, in fact the autopsy report said they had quite a few defensive wounds. "Garcia explained

"Of course they don't women who are easy to fight, there is no thrill in that. They want a women who can fight it raises the thrill factor... Pathetic!" I say in anger, I could feel my face heating in rage Why would anyone do this? Who would be this pathetic? I thought

"Mercy is right having women who can fight raises the thriller factor for the customers and if the customers are happy that means more money. Garcia what do you know about this fight ring?" Hotch agreed, he gave a disgusted look, I could tell he hated this case just as much as I did.

Garcia explained to us that the fight ring appeared a few years ago. The FBI was asked to keep tabs on it and they found out, that they would kidnap women and would keep them hostage in the worst condition ever. They would have to fight man maybe twice the size of Morgan, and sometimes they would be too weak or the men would be too sadistic and they would die. Spencer noticed must have noticed my impatience  because he grabbed my hand and gave it tight squeeze. I smiled

"Ok I want Mercy and Reid to go to the first 3 victim's family see what you can find out about them, Rossi and JJ I want you to interview the families of the missing girls. Emily and Morgan I want you to go to the morgue." Hotch ordered.

                                                                                     *****

We arrived at the station and Reid, I quickly got into a car and made our way to the first victim's house her name was Katy Dylan. We rang the doorbell and a women in her late thirties opened the door her eyes were red with tears She must be Miss. Dylan I thought

"Hello how may I help you?" she asked,

"Hi I'm Dr. Mercy Johnson and this is Dr. Spencer Reid were with the FBI. We are here to investigate the murder of your daughter may we come in?" I asked, she gave a small nod

"of-of course." She let us pass and we made our way to the living room

"Can I get you guys something, water, coffee, tea?" she offered

"Coffee please." Reid and I say at the same time, I looked at the pictures and noticed that a lot of Katy's pictures were of her during boxing matches or winning them.

"Here you go!" Miss. Dylan handed us our coffee

"Thank you so much Miss. Dylan I see that Katy loved boxing." I say

"Yea! She really loved it, it was her favorite sport." She admits, I let out a sigh

"Umm Miss. Dylan would you mind if search your daughter room, just to get a better idea of who she is and why, her abductors chose her?" I asked

"Of course anything to catch my babies killer." She agreed,

Spencer and I stood up and made our way to Katy's bedroom. It liked any average 19 year old room, it was fill with posters of popular TV series and singers. She had many pictures with her friends and mom. I then noticed that there wall a small cabinet filled with boxing trophies

"She was just an average 19 year old why would any want to kidnap and put her through all that pain and torture." I say, I then notice Reid looking out of the window

"What are you doing Reid?" I asked

"You see that small apartment, its abandoned perfect for our unsubs to stalk the victim." Reid argued, I looked at him and nodded in agreement.

                                                                                              ******

~Reid's POV~

After Mercy and I left the third victims house it was pretty dark, so Mercy and I decided to head back to the station and maybe work on the geographical profile. Mercy cleared her throat

"Reidsters did you ever have a girlfriend?" Mercy asked, I stood there shock at Mercy sudden outburst Why would she ask me that? I thought

"No-No I-I never had a girl-friend." I admitted, Mercy looked at me with those mesmerizing blue grey eyes. I let out a sigh

"But- But there is this one girl." I say

"Really?" she said, she sounded almost hurt

"Yea-Yea she is so sweet and beautiful." I explained

"Really she sound amazing." I took one step closer to Mercy

"And she has these beautiful blue grey eyes that I always find myself getting lost in them." I admitted, I placed my hand on her cheek and pressed my forehead against hers. I started too lean in, I could feel her breathing getting heavier ... that's when they came. Two men out of nowhere attacked us, one of them grabbed Mercy she tried to fight him off but he was too strong

"LET GO OF ME!!" She shouted, I tried to fight off the other guy but he quickly knock me unconscious.

The last thing I heard was Mercy screaming my name.
