85. The Worst of the Worst

"How are we going to tell Olivia...?"

*In Boston, Massachusetts*

 

*The team bursts into the warehouse. The UnSub, standing next to a speaker-sound system, looks surprised as he turns to run. But as Gideon grabs him, Mayisha pounds a round or two into his skull. He drops to the ground, pale as a ghost and dead as a doorknob, before the acting Unit Chief can even put the cuffs on him. Meanwhile, the rest of the team moves into the dungeon-like part of the warehouse. They see Morgan, sitting in chains looking down. When the open the door, they see Jocelyn, dead, on the ground. In the same position she was in when she died. The team and Morgan stare at one another for at least ten minutes. Megan is the first one to speak*

 

Megan: J-Jossy?

 

Morgan: I’m sorry. I couldn’t save her.

 

Mayisha: J-J-Jocelyn? Jocelyn! JOCELYN.

 

*Megan and Mayisha run to her, sobbing their eyes out, as they hold onto her cold, dead body. Her clouded, sightless eyes stare up at the ceiling, oblivious to their sobs. Gideon reaches over and pulls Megan off, devoid of any emotion. It takes a while, and she begins to scream for him to let go. But he doesn’t, and eventually, he’s able to lead her away from Jocelyn’s dead body. It takes JJ AND Prentiss to pull Mayisha off, screaming. Now, everyone but Morgan and Gideon are crying. But Morgan has tearstains on his dark skin, and Gideon’s eyes are glistening with unshed, invisible tears*

 

Megan: *fights him* LET ME GO!

 

Gideon: No! Megan, get a hold of yourself!

 

Megan: IT’S JOCELYN! IT’S JOCELYN. It’s… Jocelyn… *between sobs*

 

Morgan: It’s my fault.

 

JJ: *is crying* No… No it’s not…

 

Morgan: I couldn’t save her.

 

Prentiss: I’m sure you did the best you could. *is sobbing as well*

 

Mayisha: *between sobs* It happened… The worst of the worst… What are we going to tell Olivia…?

 

Prentiss: Oh God… That’s right…

 

JJ: How are we going to tell her?

 

Morgan: We can’t worry about that right now. Where’s the UnSub.

 

Prentiss: Joshua Michaels. He’s dead.

 

Morgan: How?

 

Mayisha: I killed him.

 

JJ: It was reasonable.

 

Morgan: He killed Jocelyn…

 

JJ: We were too late…

 

Gideon: Please, we’ve got to move the body--

 

Megan: *tears away from him* HOW CAN YOU SAY IT LIKE THAT?! “MOVE THE BODY”?! SHE’S NOT JUST SOME BODY YOU CAN MOVE, OKAY?!

 

Gideon: Megan…

 

Megan: *goes over to Jocelyn* Joss… Wake up… Please…

 

Gideon: She’s dead.

 

Megan: NO SHE’S NOT. Joss… Please…

 

Mayisha: Megs…

 

Megan: NO. I REFUSE TO BELIEVE THAT JOCELYN IS DEAD.

 

Prentiss: Please, honey…

 

Megan: No… NOO! NO! *shakes Jocelyn* WAKE UP! WAKE UP! WAKEUPWAKEUPWAKEUP!!!

 

Mayisha: MEGAN!

 

Megan: JOCELYN! *breaks down into sobs on the floor*

 

*Then…*

 

 

 

　

 

　

 

　

 

　

 

　

 

　

 

　

 

　

 

　

 

　

 

　

 

　

 

Jocelyn: *stirs* Why is everyone crying?

 

Everyone: JOCELYN!!!!

 

Jocelyn: Ow… Pain…

 

Megan and Mayisha: *hug her so tight she can’t breathe*

 

Jocelyn: OWCH, GUYS, I CAN’T BREATHE.

 

Everyone Else: *hugs her*

 

Jocelyn: Jeez, I should fake my death more often.

 

Everyone Else: WHAT?!

 

Jocelyn: I faked my death.

 

Gideon: How on Earth did you do that?

 

Jocelyn: I read it in Maximum Ride. She goes inside herself, shutting out the world. That’s what I did.

 

Gideon: You managed to stop your pulse and everything…

 

Morgan: C’mere you. *gives her a big hug*

 

Jocelyn: Wow… Morgan… Are you okay?

 

Morgan: I’m sorry I couldn’t save you.

 

Jocelyn: I’m alive, dummy.

 

Mayisha: Yeah… You’re alive…

Author's Note

Gotcha good, didn't I? Y'all thought Jocelyn was dead. SHE WAS NAUGHT. :D So you can all tell me how much you love me now. Go ahead.

*silence*

Aw, damn. Anywho, next, you'll find out what's goin' on with me, Hotchy and the Reidster in Haven.

Ooh, Reidster. I should use that term more often.
