So please be gentle on my first Criminal minds story but remember I crave feedback so please review. The only thing I ask is that please remember giving constructive criticism and being an asshole are two different things!

Spoiler Alert: Contains Spoilers for "Somebody's Watching"

Detective Owen Kim gritted his teeth as he read a note for the tenth time that day that had been hand delivered to the LAPD Headquarters that afternoon. About an hour after they had received it a representative of the actress Lila Archer came in to file a missing person's report on her client after nobody had heard from her in almost thirty six hours.

Detective Kim read the note over once again in his mind before turning to one of his fellow officers.

"Get a call in to Jennifer Jareau from the B.A.U." He told them before seeing him rush to the phone, "We're gonna need all the help we can get with this one…" He added before stepping away to ready a conference room for the arrival of the FBI agents who would hit the ground running like always.

Agent's Alex Blake, Derek Morgan and Dr. Spencer Reid were in the middle of a heavy discussion about one of their more recently caught unsub's when JJ went rushing past then making a bee line for the office of Unit Chief Aaron Hotchner. She was only in his office for a matter of moments before he stood and closed the blinds.

"That didn't look good…" Morgan announced breaking the silence that had fallen over the three agents. He made his way over to the coffee maker where Senior Profiler David Rossi was making casual conversation with another Agent.

"I'm sure Penelope will be here any moment now with a case…" Rossi told the younger Profiler before could say a word. Almost immediately the aforementioned Technical Analyst came strutting through the doors and up to Morgan and Rossi.

"Well hello there Baby Girl!" Derek greeted her in with a smirk.

"Hello yourself oh sexy profiler god!" She told in response before handing him a small amount of paper work, "I need your John Hancock on these before a can file them!" She added glancing from Rossi to Blake and Reid who all shared looks of equal concern.

Instantly Gracia's demeanor changed to one of a worried mother hen. She noticed that they were all looking the direction of their superior's office causing her to look up and see that the blinds were closed.

"Why are the blinds closed?" She asked voice thick with concern.

"We were just wondering the same after watching JJ rush in there…" Rossi told her scowling to himself when he realized that he had only shaken her confidence worse than it was before, he should have known better.

After a moment Hotch stepped out of his office looking at Reid and motioning for him to join them in the office. Blake and Reid shared a look before the youngest member of the team stood and made his way to the door where the others waited.

JJ had a notepad in hand where she had written down a message she just received from the Los Angeles Police. They had received a letter stating that a very well-known Hollywood starlet would die seventy-two hours from when it was delivered if they didn't find her in time. When Hotch and Reid entered the room she gave the younger agent a sympathetic look. He wasn't sure what to make of it and almost didn't catch Hotch as he started to speak.

"Reid we're about to leave for a case in Los Angeles and I need to ask you a few questions before we head for the jet." His superior began, "After everything that happened last year I'm not sure if you can stay objective…" He added receiving a scowl from Reid.

"What is the case?" Spencer asked the two others who shared a glance at one another, "Well?" He added making JJ meet his gaze.

"LAPD called us in after they received an anonymous note that said that someone had kidnapped Lila Archer and that from the time they were given the note they have seventy-two hours before she is dead…" Jennifer told him frowning when she saw a look of fear cross his eyes for a matter of milliseconds before he took on a very serious demeanor.

"How long have they known?" He asked her watching as she glanced down at the transcript of the phone call.

"They received the note at nine AM pacific time, five hours ago… two hours before they called us Lila's manager showed up and reported her missing… she left with someone of the set of her new movie and nobody has heard from her… she even left her cellphone and wallet behind in her trailer…" JJ told him receiving a nod.

"The only real connection I've ever made between Lila and Maeve is that they were both being stalked by a woman; what happened between me and Maeve is something I can't forget but I still need to help Lila… I know more about Lila than anyone else on the team so I know that having me there could be the determining factor of whether she is found in time or not!" He explained to them with a confidence that neither had seen in a while.

"Alright but know that if I feel like it's becoming too much for you I will pull you from the field!" Hotch told him receiving a nod before stepping out with the others following, "We've got a case in LA, get your things we're debriefing on the plane… wheels up in twenty!"
