“Certainly, I can do that and I’ll forward the fibers I
found on the fifth victim to the crime lab as well.” Grabbing her files, she
smiled at Korsak before leaving.

Hotch and Korsak stood in the conference room bemused by
everything that had transpired. “Ahem…” Garcia cleared her throat as she
realized they had forgotten she was still there.

“Sorry Garcia, you heard?”

“Sir I heard what was said and not said.” Her smiling face
beaming.

“I’m sure you did Garcia…I need everything you can dig up on
a Detective Max Rodriguez, also, cross check our victims with social websites,
see if they had accounts and if they posted their comings and going. One of
them may provide us some answers.”

“Yes oh exalted one, anything else?” Hands hovering
expectantly over her keyboard, she waited for more instructions.

“No Garcia, just what we’ve given you so far.”

“I’ll check back in when I have something.”

As she signed off, Korsak looked at Hotch, “she seems, uhm,
interesting.”

Looking down at the files on the desk, he looked back, “you
have no idea”

“So, question for you detective, is Detective Rizzoli always
so…”

“A little arrogant, cocky, bull headed…yes, that’s why she’s
a hell of a detective, and she cares.” Walking away, Hotch realized Korsak had
just described Prentiss.

Chapter 4

Emily watched Frost as he drove, time to break down some
barriers, “So, how long have you known Detective Rizzoli?”

“About two years now, since I got partnered with her.  I knew of
her but I didn’t know her personally until then, why?” Glancing over he looked
at her suspiciously.

“No reasons, just trying to break the ice, get to know you”

“Get to know me huh? By asking about Jane? Okay then how
long have you been with the BAU?”

Trick question Emily thought considering the fact that she
had been “dead” for part of the time, “Four and a half years now.”  Even now it was still uncomfortable to think
about what she had put the team through letting them think she was dead.  Even though they had accepted her back, she
knew she was still working on earning their trust.

Letting out a whistle, “that’s a long time to see the things
you see.”

“You have no idea” Her tone spoke volumes about the horrors
she’d seen.

Frost knew he had hit a sore spot by the tone of her voice
and quite honestly did not want to go there, “So, you speak Spanish?”
