Hey everybody! It's a new story that popped into my head. Unfortunately i've had writers block on my other story and I'm looking for a Beta for some help in editing my stories and to give help on where the stories could possibly go! If anyone doesn't mind let me know and I'll be glad to talk about it with you! Also as a disclaimer I do not own anything of Criminal Minds (even though Matthew Gray Gubler is a handsome man!) But I do own the OC characters!

Chapter 1

Danielle Moore walked briskly across the college campus knowing she was running late to her Evaluation of Evidence class that started in 5 minutes. Being 27 and still attending school got her a few questionable looks but she also knew that they didn't really understand. Even though she was still in school she already had a Ph. D. in Psychology along with a Masters in Criminology. Currently working on her Masters in Sociology she knew she was different. She was always looked at weirdly and questioned about her grades. Dani was always known as the weird and nerdy girl. Even though she didn't look like the typical nerd with the glasses and unapproachable looking clothes it was always noticeable that she was every time she spoke. She always looked normal with her blonde hair to the middle of her back with a slight curl to it that always came naturally. Her eyes were a green that come off hazel most of the time. She wore mostly jeans and t-shirts but that was mostly for comfort. She also only had one very close friend. They had grown up together and kept in touch daily. They hung out when they could but living in different areas of the North Carolina piedmont it was difficult seeing each other whenever they wanted. She quickly walked up to the classroom door and took her normal seat just as the professor started the lesson of the day. She quickly prepared herself to take notes and began listening to the lesson of the day.

Spencer Reid walked into the bullpen of the BAU. He headed straight to the conference room already knowing JJ had a case for the team. Arriving into the room and taking a seat he looked toward the board waiting to be briefed with the team mates. The case he knew was located on a college campus in North Carolina where three bodies of college students had been located. He looked up towards the team leader Aaron Hotchner as he entered the room. "Let's begin the briefing, JJ." He looked at JJ as the case files were being handed out. "So far there have been three bodies dropped in public places of the campus. All three female and blonde, they seemed to have been stabbed multiple times with signs of sexual assault." He glanced down to the pictures within his files looking closely, "They all seemed to have their hair cutoff but it's hard to tell if it was before or after the killing until looking closer at the scenes." Hotchner stood, "we will continue on the plane, wheels up in 30." Spencer stood grabbing his file and heading out the door to grab his bag and heading towards the vehicle.

Dani stood putting her bag on her shoulder exiting the classroom. It was the last class of the day for her and she knew exactly where she was heading next. Having a paper due in an earlier class she needed the library. She looked around at the faces of the other students before heading to the exit of the building while digging into her pocket for her phone and dialing her friend Dawn's number. She talked to Dawn every day around the same time, unless she was too busy with classes and papers. "Talk to me girlie!" Dani smiled "Hey D. Just thought I'd check in see what's up." "Well other then the little devil of mine causing trouble around every corner the day is going as normal." Dani laughed "Give the little terror love from me. I wanted to make sure everything was still going to be as planned for next weekend." "As long as you can put those books away for the weekend then yes, everything is as planned. I know you plan on leaving Friday after your last class. I have the spare room ready for you so you can camp out here for the weekend. Ella's party is Saturday at 1 and then we can plan from there for anything else you want to do." Dani smirked "I already know you're planning on a night out with just us girls' D. You always do when I come up." "Well of course I do! I have to get you to relax away from school at some point and that's only when you come up!" Dani shook her head "I relax more around my books then I do going to a bar D and you know that!" "Yes Dani I know but you're 27 and haven't been on a decent date in years! I just want you to be happier around people instead of all the books." Dani sighed and glanced off to the side when she noticed the black SUV pull up into a parking space in front of the library. "D you know I'm socially awkward around crowds of people. I'm different." Dani smiled a small smile hearing Dawn sigh heavily on the phone. Glancing up as she heard the doors shut on the vehicle she noticed a group of people huddle together. One seemed to be in a professional suit talking amongst the group but there was one particular guy she noticed more. He seemed tall but he had shaggy brown hair that seemed to curl. He had a messenger bag on his shoulder and wore khakis and a vest. She smiled nicely looking at the group as she stopped to finish her conversation with Dawn before she entered the building. "Dani you need to start being around more people so you can get over your awkwardness and you can't do that with your nose in a book." Dani shook her head gently, "D my life is pretty much books and studying." "Oh I know that but you have me here to get you out of the books and into reality." Dani smiled once more glancing at the group who now faced her. "Dawn my IQ is 182 and it's not the books that I get stuck in. It's the statistics that I learn and read. You know that I hate fantasy! But I have to go I'm at the library and have a paper due middle of next week. I'll call tomorrow." "Ok Dani I'll talk to ya tomorrow" "Bye girl!" Hanging up the phone she turned it off and once more smiled at the group before heading into the library and heading to a study table.

On Campus

Spencer sat at the table with the group with the case file out. Pulling out the pictures of the crime scenes he glanced up as Derek Morgan began speaking "The unsub seems to be killing on a personal bases than on anger. He seems to assault the women then killing them. I just don't understand why stab them repeatedly afterwards?" "It seems to be personal with the choice of the victims but anger with the killings" He glanced at Emily Prentiss when she spoke "What all do the victims have in common with one another?" Spencer looked around the table as looked towards Morgan as he answered his phone and putting it on speaker "Give me all you got Baby Girl!" Penelope began speaking "All three of the victims were taking classes that seemed to be for a Sociology degree. They all had at least one class together but that seems to be all that they had in common. They didn't hang around the same group of friends or anything." "Thanks Garcia. Keep us updated on anything else you find." "Will do sir." Hotch glanced at the group. "We need to split up, Reid and Prentiss I want you talking to the victims' professors while Morgan and I talk with the security guards of the college to see where the bodies were dumped." Nodding at Hotch and grabbing his bag with the case file in hand they exited the plane heading towards the SUV in the lot. They quickly arrived at the college library and exiting the vehicle they all surrounded each other getting ready to split up when noticing a blonde girl headed toward them speaking on a cell phone when they watched as she spoke "Dawn my IQ is 182 and it's not the books that I get stuck in. It's the statistics that I learn and read. You know that I hate fantasy! But I have to go I'm at the library and have a paper due middle of next week. I'll call tomorrow." Spencer noticed the smile she gave them as she walked into the library after putting her phone away when Morgan spoke with a laugh "She spoke like Reid!" The group glanced at him with smirks before they split up in their groups.

The group got back together at the security guard office to regroup and brief each other about the information they received. Spencer walked towards the board glancing at the photos of each victim that was taken at the crime scenes as the rest of the group sat at the table "Hotch, the professors that they had together stated pretty much the same, all three girls were smart and kept up with the classes they took. They all were never late but they all had a group of friends they were close with. Granted looking at the pictures they each seem to have been drawn on. Each victim has some sort of design drawn on their left shoulder but I can't get a clear look." Hotch quickly looked at the pictures "It seems that they are trying to mimic something that the unsub wants to point out about the person he really wants." Spencer sat beside Morgan as Hotch looked at Prentiss. "I want you to go see medical examiner and get a closer picture of the design and send it to Garcia and see if she can tell you what it's supposed to mean. The unsub seems to get the attention of one person only and we need to locate who that is." Spencer stood while speaking "One of the professors said that the girls had a study group they went to around this time in the library. I'll head there and see what I can get from the group." Morgan stood "I'll go with him." Hotch nodded while sitting back down "I'll keep wait here to speak with Garcia." Leaving the room Spencer glanced at Morgan and went to the vehicle.
