THE ENTIRE CONFUSION ARISES WHEN Penelope becomes unable to find information about Jane. That girl was either aware of how the system works, knowing that everything is recorded somewhere, or she simply lived without leaving many traces. In an age when the Internet and artificial intelligence are slowly but steadily taking over the entire human race, this is considered a very difficult job.

Jane was a mean girl; I wonder if she visited her parents - my father - all these years and learned these skills from them. She was also fearless and cunning, as she pulled this off without a hitch. Even when Spencer had a bad impression at the restaurant, no one else seemed to notice.

Maybe I should have listened to him, but I was too preoccupied with our date and ourselves.

JJ, Hotch, and Morgan went to their homes around 5 a.m. to get at least a few hours of sleep because they would need it. They were replaced by two new agents, Luke Alvarez and Tara Lewis, whom I had never met before. They were both sleep-deprived but perplexed by my presence - they had no idea who I was. Spencer kept me as his little secret for a reason, and it only made me appreciate him more.

"Do you think she's alone in this, ummm?" Luke inquired. "Ally," I introduce myself. "I believe so because there is no evidence that she has a boyfriend, and I have never made enemies."

"This is going to sound stupid, but were there any students in the lectures who were not like the other students? Someone must have been keeping an eye on both of you." He keeps asking questions as he tries to wash away all of Garcia's previous theses on the white board.

"People came because of Spencer, but it was resolved within a week and we all received our passes. So, no, the rest were students with whom I also had other subjects."

My soul had been sleeping for a long time, and my body was tense, but it was nothing compared to the tiredness I felt. We were supposed to spend Sunday in bed together, possibly with a few glasses of wine and a few cheeky actions. Jane, Karma is a bitch, and I'm working to be even bigger.

We spent the next two hours looking for Jane connections all over town. Spencer was obviously not in her apartment because there wasn't much to be found. If she worked as a waitress in that Italian restaurant, her salary would be average, leaving her with barely enough money after rent to rent another place. Only if she didn't have her own ways, or if she planned everything at the moment she switched places just a few days before.

"How many storage rooms and similar facilities exist? For rent or abandoned, perhaps in a district 35 miles from the abduction location? "After a long silence, I ask the question. Garcia painstakingly extracts all of the information with her deft fingers.
There is something, she exhales an excited sigh.

"There are about 20 abandoned buildings, most of which are bars, but there are many more storage rooms that look like garages. What do you think should come next, princess? ", she asked me sadly, and I, too, am at a loss for what to do next.

Fortunately, Tara takes my response and begins her own. "I'm not certain of the amount of time we have before she acts or Spencer knocks her off her feet," I shake my head at her words.

"She is not capable of killing; if she did, she would send us proof that she intends to harm him. She has a highly unstable personality, but she knows what she wants "I pause for a few moments. "She wants me to see it, she wants me to notice her," man, I'm her sister who had a slightly better life than she did.

A black-haired woman rushes into the meeting room keeps our attention. She's carrying a cardboard box with coffee and donuts in her hands, and I can tell by the expressions on other people's faces that this is their friend. "Oh, Emily, how I love you for showing up like that," Garcia exclaimed as she jumped into her arms.

"Emily Prentiss, a key member of our team," Luke says into my ear, making me look less executed. Emily greets everyone for a long time, as if they haven't seen each other in a long time. He finally got to me.

"Has she taken the place of our genius? A very young agent on our team, history repeats itself "Penelope interrupts her before she can finish her thought. "Ally, Spencer's girlfriend, has called. Emily, Spencer is in danger "I give her a tentative smile, and she pulls me into a hug. Someone enjoys giving out big hugs.

The coffee and donut break will allow us to remind her of the events thus far and that we all need to take a break - even if it is only for ten minutes. I can't fully unwind until I know where he is and how he is doing. I adore him, and I don't want to lose him in this way.

"Folks!" yells Garcia, and we all leap to our feet. "Spencer's phone turned on, and I got his signal," a sigh of relief washed over me, but this wasn't the end. We've only just begun.

"Can you locate him?" Emily inquired, knowing that her partner was capable of such behavior. We all had high hopes for Garcia and her extraordinary abilities. "Mhm," she murmured, her gaze fixed on her work.

"Fuck, the signal just went out again, I didn't get in on time," she grumbles, and I understand how she feels right now. I don't want her to think we squandered a chance because of her.

My phone beeped the next thing I knew, and I took it out of my pocket to find something unexpected. Spencer's messages, as well as the image content in question. There are three pieces.

I handed the phone to Garca because I didn't want to be the first to notice anything bad. It'd break me, and who knows how it'd affect me later on. "Now is not the time to dither, Penelope," she kept telling herself.

With just one click, we could see the first image, in which Spencer is tied to a chair. The photographs were taken in a partially darkened room. The light does, after all, enter the room. The second image showed her climbing on top of him and sitting in his crotch while he wasn't even looking at the camera or at her. The third image, with her hand on his crotch, was a little sicker.

That sick girl.

"I have to drag the images through the programs to lighten the background and improve the quality. Something must reveal its location "She instantly started working.

"I'm sorry you saw that," Emily says as she checks on me. I was fine; it wasn't me who had been groped inappropriately, but him. I hope he is doing well.

One of the screens displayed a picture of Spencer sitting in a chair. After brightening the background, it is clear that the room it is in is partially empty. A couple of tables and chairs are strewn about in the background, and there's a window in the top right corner where you can see something.

"Zoom in on the window, please," I say, and she does, gradually zooming in on the photo. The image was now magnified to 200 percent, slightly blurry but revealing an ice cream stand-style roof.

"I can look through surveillance cameras around the county to see if anyone caught her, but it will take a long time. Do you have any suggestions???" Her eyes dart around all of us.

"An ice cream shop. I was walking by a similar store "I explained everything to her. "There are a couple of abandoned bars there, and the old cafe is right across the street; it closed two years ago, and I used to work there."

"I'm new to this, but is it possible that everything is damn connected?!?" I'm almost in tears. This is too much for me; someone I care about is somewhere out there, and I can't get my shittogether.

"Shhh, everything will be fine; you'll become adapted to this type of work. You're feeling anxious because it's about someone close to you; you care about him, and it's natural to be shaken ", I'm grateful to Luke for holding me in his arms. I feel accepted by them, which surprised me because I am much younger than they are.

***

"You were correct, girl, this is Cat's ice cream shop, and nearby is the former Happy Hour cafe," Garcia exclaims cheerfully. "If there are any cameras, I'll try to hack them."

Tara, Luke, and Emily left me alone with Garcia while they went to contact the rest of the team. Spencer has been kidnapped for 16 hours. How long before I feel his arms around me?

"I'm in," she declares quickly. A fascinating situation is playing out on the screen in front of us. It sounds more like a conversation.

"Why are you in such a hurry, doctor? You chose her out of all of them? What makes her so unique? "Jane spoke with jealousy and rage. Spencer remained silent.

"You like to fuck that little whore, you like younger girls huh?" she said as she leaned in and grabbed his jaw, forcing him to look into her eyes.

"I'm younger than you, so why didn't you pick me? Why is my younger sister better than me? Because you have power over her? "While he remained silent, she laughed in his face. He was unconcerned about her bizarre behavior. Jane was envious.

Her hand moved back to his body, carelessly circling in spots. He realized what was going on when he looked at the camera, most likely because the red light was flashing.

He finally said something. "You can keep touching me, but I'll only remain hard in her presence. Remember, Ally is everything you aren't "A slap reverberated throughout the room. Spencer threw Jane off the beat when she reached her limit.

"I'm going to kill her in front of you, just like Maeve was killed," she screamed angrily. Spencer didn't expect to learn that information, so he swallowed a large lump in his throat and carried on as usual.

"If you touch her, I'll personally take care of you. That is the only way I would touch you and pay attention to you. After that, I'll be able to sleep soundly for several nights."

Emily then turned off live video. It was sufficient. "She'll be a lot more careless after this, her ego is bruised, we can get her now," Emily says. But I can't help but feel uneasy because I know all eyes are on me. I've been through worse.

The others arrived quickly. Still tired, but ready to go. "Let's go get our pretty boy," Morgan says, walking in the room with Hotch. "Garcia, please send us the address and report the situation," Hotch said, nodding.

"Let's go"
