A/N IM BACK!

Ok so I've had a lot of people messaging me asking when I'm going to be putting the sequel to 'The Mask Has Fallen' so here it is.

Be warned it will get VERY dark.

I won't be updating it as much as I would like to for a little bit as I am still writing it but once I've finished it, I should update faster.

Hope you guys like it!


Agent Jennifer Jareau also known as JJ was woken at 9am by the loud beeping of her alarm clock. It was a Sunday Morning and she was due to go to lunch and spend the day shopping with her two best friends Agent Emily Prentiss and Penelope Garcia.

JJ sleepily climbed out of her bed and walked into the small kitchen pouring her self a fresh cup of coffee. She leant against the counter top and gazed out the window of her apartment thinking about the year that had passed.

You see Jennifer Jareau was not the name the blonde was given at birth, she was named Shelby Merrick. JJ didn't have what you'd call a 'normal' childhood, she was abused and raped by her step father for 5 years and when she couldn't take any more JJ ran away. She ended up on the streets and was forced into prostitution; it was the only way she was able to survive. Eventually JJ was found and sent to Mount Horizon. It was a school for troubled and misguided teenagers but in the end she couldn't deal with what had happened to her and what she was, so she ran away from the family she had made and her life to her biological father. That was when Shelby Merrick became Jennifer Jareau.

JJ was brought out of her thought by the buzzing of her phone on the counter top. She gowned.

"Please don't be a case…" JJ sighed and put on the most professional voice she could muster "Agent Jareau."

"Good morning sunshine." A Happy voice beamed down the phone.

"Morning Pen." A smile grew on her face when she realised It was one of her best friends.

"How you doing on this fine day Jayje?" Garcia asked.

"I'm good, just woke up because someone wanted to spend the whole day shopping." A cheeky smirk filled JJ's face.

"Oh don't be like they cupcake its been ages since you, me and Em spent any time together besides I'm treating you to lunch so stop complaining."

"I know, I know." JJ giggled you could almost hear the pout coming from Garcia "So what can I do for you?"

"I just wanted to make sure you were up and to say me and our beautiful brunette will be over in about an hour."

"Ok. I'll see you then."

"Good and make sure your sexy little ass stays out of bed."

"Yes Penelope." JJ chuckled down the phone.

"See you soon sugar."

"Oh Pen…"

"Yeah?"

"No more coffee for you please."

"Cant make a promise like that Jayje, BYE." Garcia yelled down the phone and before JJ could say anything a dial tone rang out in JJ's ear. JJ rolled her eyes and went to get ready.

55 Minutes later JJ was ready and sitting on one of the benches outside her building staring off into space waiting for Garcia's red car to drive up.

In the time that the team had known who JJ really was not much had changed. If anything they had all become closer. They didn't react the way she had always imagined they would. They didn't find her disgusting or dirty, they didn't disown her and they most certainly didn't hate her.

The first few weeks of the teams return from Mount Horizon JJ stayed with Emily till her injuries from the attack had healed more, and then it was a few weeks after that she returned to work. Over the months that passed JJ managed to open up a lot more to the team. When they weren't on a case Emily and Garcia would stay at hers one night a week and watch movies and talk. It was then that JJ started talking to them about her memories before the abuse started and she would fill them in on the mischievous things her and her little sister Jess would get up to. JJ talked to Hotch and Rossi more about her Step father as a means to try and profile him so they could find him as he was still off the grid and she would also answer any question they had about her time on the streets. Hotch also invited JJ to spend time with him and jack, at first she thought it was out of pity and only excepted because she felt she had to but over time she had grown to really care for both the Hotchner men. She talked to Reid about the time she spent at Horizon and the people and things she learnt there, then finally it was Morgan she went to when she couldn't deal with the nightmares on her own anymore. When JJ had a particularly bad nightmare she would call him in the middle of the night and he would be over as fast as he could. Once Morgan got there they would both talk about their dreams and the horrible things that happened to them and eventually fall asleep in each others arms. It did them both the world of good talking about it especially as the other knew what they were going threw.

JJ jumped back to reality when a horn sounded and a bright red convertible pulled up outside the building.

"Ready to do some serious shopping Jayje?" Emily asked handing her a cup of coffee once she climbed in the back.

"Can anyone really be ready to go shopping with Miss Penelope Garcia?" JJ said taking the coffee and Emily nodded and laughed.

"OI! Be nice or that very unflattering picture I have of you at the Christmas party will magically appear on every computer screen at the BAU" Garcia gave JJ a grin in the mirror as she pulled away.

"NOOOOO! You told me you deleted that!" JJ looked devastated.

"I did." Garcia smiled "After I put it on my babies for safe keeping."

JJ gowned and Emily and Garcia burst out laughing


JJ, Emily and Garcia were sat at a table in a small deli they all loved. They were just finishing they lunch and picking up their many bags when JJ's phone rang. She gave her two friends a worried look as she pulled her phone from her bag.

"Agent Jareau…yes hello…Right…ok…yes…no…I did…Ok we will be there as soon as I gather the team…Ok Thankyou." JJ hung up the phone and gave both Emily and Garcia apologetic looks "Sorry ladies were going to have to put this shopping trip on hold."

Emily let out a low grown and Garcia sighed as she pulled out her car keys. The blonde, brunette and the red head made their way to the car and drive to the BAU but what the three women didn't realise was that they had been followed all morning.

'You are just simply perfect' he thought to himself as he watches the red car drive into the FBI building 'We'll be together soon and this time you wont get away. I'll see you when you get back Kitten. Then we can have our fun again.' That was when the beat up old van drove to its next destination to pick up the things that were needed.

oOo

5 days later Garcia stood next to the glass doors in the BAU waiting for the lift to open to reveal her team. It had been a long and hard case filled with corpses of young women and a rather nasty Unsub but the team had manager to trick the man out and he was arrested before anymore girls were hurt.

The lift doors pinged open and 6 tired looking team members walked out holding bags and files.

"Hello beautiful crime fighters" Garcia walked up to them and took the bag JJ was holding "Its good to have you back."

Morgan kissed her on the head "it's good to be back baby girl." He smiled.

"I was thinking it's been a few weeks since we all went out together so maybe we could go for some drinks." Garcia gave them all a bright smile.

"Now there's an idea I can't say no too." Morgan said.

"I'm in." Emily walked threw the glass doors with them all following.

"I don't know." JJ wasn't sure; she had an odd feeling in the pit of her stomach all day.

"I don't think it's a bad idea. We could all use some chill out time." Rossi dropped his go bag by Emily's desk.

"But what about the paper work?" Reid asked.

"You only want to do it because it'll only take you 20 minutes kid but for the rest of us we will be stuck here for a good 2 hours." Morgan ruffled Reid's hair.

"Don't worry about the paper work; you can all do it on Monday." Hotch walked up to his office. When he reached the door he turned round "I think we should all go. I'll be ready in 10 I just have to make sure Jessica is ok with Jack."

"YAY team party!" Garcia jumped up and down.
