61. Every Teardrop is a Waterfall

61. Every Teardrop is a Waterfall

A Chapter by halflives

*In Acornville*

 

*Gideon, Morgan, JJ, and Prentiss arrive at the crime scene. Some of the police officers are playing “Every Teardrop is a Waterfall” by Coldplay. JJ hums along with the tune while Gideon wordlessly walks over to the scene of the crime. Morgan joins him*

 

Morgan: What do you think?

 

Gideon: I don’t know what to think. I don’t even know if WE should be handling this case. Of all cases…

 

Prentiss: Why, are you getting… emotional? *tries not to laugh at the thought of Gideon emotional*

 

Gideon: *snaps* No! *sighs* I mean… Megan, Mayisha, Jocelyn and Olivia. About them.

 

JJ: What about them?

 

Gideon: They’re just SO tied to this case.

 

Prentiss: True… It IS their FRIENDS being murdered, after all…

 

Morgan: But that doesn’t stop them from being good Profilers.

 

Prentiss: True.

 

JJ: You think everything’s true, Emily. *smiles*

 

Prentiss: *smiles back* Just… imagine if your friends were being murdered.

 

Morgan: I would… I don’t know what I would do.

 

Gideon: they’re holding up pretty well, considering the circumstances.

 

*Gideon’s phone rings*

 

Gideon: Hold on, let me take this. *leaves*

 

Morgan: What can you get from the crime scene?

 

Prentiss: We already know it was one of their friends.

 

JJ: Could we have Garcia make a list from just that?

 

Familiar Voice from Behind Them: So, Garcia’s still making lists?

 

*Morgan, Prentiss and JJ whirl around to face the person standing there in feminine suspenders, a tight t-shirt, and jeans*

 

Morgan and JJ: Elle!

 

*Indeed, Elle Greenaway herself stands before them. She looks confident and rather happy, in contrast to the last time the two of them had seen her. After she had killed a suspect, when they let him walk because of his persistent lawyer*

 

Morgan: Elle, are you back?

 

Elle: No, I’m just helping out on this case. I heard your four new SSA’s are strongly tied to the case.

 

JJ: You could say that.

 

Prentiss: excuse me, who’s this?

 

Elle: Oh, THIS is my replacement.

 

JJ: Emily Prentiss, this is Elle Greenaway. She was the agent you replaced.

 

Elle: *holds out her hand* Nice to meet you.

 

Prentiss: *shakes it* I’m sorry. This must be hard for you. I don’t want to say that I’m better than you or anything, so I’m just going to say nothing and just--

 

Elle: *laughs, cutting her off* It’s okay, Emily, is it? *she nods* I’m okay with you replacing me. I’m here… unofficially, okay? Let’s not tell the world that I’m here. I’m here because, if the new girls need any slack, I’m here to take that up.

 

JJ: That’s really nice of you, Elle.

 

Elle: Yeah, sure. *smiles*

 

Morgan: Though, Elle, there’s ONE thing I HAVE to ask you.

 

Elle: Shoot.

 

Morgan: Did you have a thing with Reid before you left?

 

*Silence*

 

*JJ and Elle crack up laughing*

 

Morgan: W-what? It was just a question.

 

Elle: OF COURSE NOT, Morgan!

 

Morgan: Oh…

 

Gideon: *walks over* There’s been-- Elle!

 

Elle: Glad to see you’re still part of the BAU, Agent Gideon.

 

Gideon: What are you doing here? I thought you left, for good.

 

Elle: I did. I’m here to pick up slack if I’m needed. I was in the neighborhood, and I kind of missed you guys.

 

Gideon: That’s kind of you.

 

Elle: I’m making up for my sins.

 

Morgan: *is kind of weirded out* who was that, Gideon?

 

Gideon: Olivia. She says that Sydney Tenant is our fourth victim.

 

JJ: How did they find her?

 

Gideon: She was murdered right in front of them.

 

JJ: *gasps, puts a hand over her mouth*

 

Morgan: Did they see who did it?

 

Gideon: No.

 

Morgan: Damn it.

 

Gideon: We’re meeting at the gym, all of us. We’re going to interview the victims. Apparently, we have a liable suspect.

 

Prentiss: *is confused* Who?

 

Gideon: Agent Mayisha Khan.
