Chapter One: Pilot

Doctor Spencer Reid was a average person; a FBI Agent, a 24 year old genius, and a bit of a geek. Everyone on the team could agree to this. But what his team didn't know was that Spencer was also a hunter/hunter's informant, and had been all his life what with his father being a hunter. Spencer didn't know until the tender age of five what it was his father really did on those hunting trips he would always go on, but even after learning it wasn't animals his dad hunted Spencer still couldn't fully comprehend what his father really did, despite being as brilliant as he was for his age.

It wasn't until two years later when his dad had just up and left him and his mom that Spencer remembered those hunting trips and really started looking into whatever information he could get his hands on to help him understand.

It was when Spencer was ten years old that he met Bobby Singer and later that same year, the Winchester's. At first none of them talked to him, it took Spencer breaking into Bobby's cabin for them to realize how determined he was to learn as much as he could. It was throughout the next two years just before Spencer entered High School back in Nevada at twelve years old that Sam and Dean started paying more attention to him and soon they all somehow became attached to one another with a bond resembling that of brothers.

They never asked Spencer where his parents were or where he went when he would have to leave Sioux Falls, it was when they hadn't heard from Spencer in four months that they all, even John, had gotten worried. After Spencer showed up back at the cabin, and refused to give them an explanation, John had personally taken Spencer out and bought him his first cell-phone.

And that was how life progressed for all of them, throughout the years Spencer would keep in contact, mainly by phone and sometimes with visits. There wasn't really a moment where they assigned the job to him but the moment Spencer was 'Old enough' he had become a informant for Bobby and the Winchester's, even other hunter friends of Bobby's as well. Not once though did they ever lose contact with one another.

Until Spencer told them he was joining the FBI. Then they didn't talk for almost three entire years, Spencer thought they wanted nothing to do with him anymore and as much as he hated it, he also accepted it. Which was why he stopped trying to get back into contact with them. The only one who kept, or tried to keep, contact with him was Sam who had left for college a year before Spencer joined the FBI.

It was only much recently, three months ago to be exact (the same time John has disappeared) that Dean tried contacting him and then two days later Bobby called him, however not once did John Winchester try to contact him.

Spencer didn't answer any of their calls, or listen to any of their voice mails.

It was when he went back to his apartment after the one case with the Serial Killer taking families hostage before their vacation and he noticed the lock had been picked and he went inside with his gun [which he still wasn't use too] out and ready to fire that Spencer realized how serious they all were about getting in touch with him. The lock was picked not by some stranger but by Dean Winchester who stood in his small living room waiting for him to come home.

The resulting encounter was...unexpected to say the least.

Spencer knew it was Dean but training with the FBI had taught him well and so he still pointed his gun at Dean and demanded he put any weapon he carried down and to hold his arms up, which only seemed to aggravate Dean. Once that was done, Spencer then tested Dean just as Bobby had taught him to do so long ago.

Spencer knew the moment Dean asked for his help in finding his father that he wasn't really there for him. After agreeing, Spencer to this day refuses to admit how he later on cried himself to sleep believing Dean didn't miss him at all, and the others probably hadn't either, and had only gotten back into contact with him to use him in the search for John. He also refused how he simply ignored that feeling because he had missed Dean and Sam and Bobby and John more then he'd ever thought he would and didn't want to chance loosing them all over again.

Though he was still angry that they had all just dropped him like garbage the moment they learned he was entering the FBI, that anger was now easily pushed aside and Spencer was able to pretend everything was back to normal whenever he talked with one of them again, even when it hurt him to do so.


This case was one of the harder ones the team had gotten ever since Spencer had joined; Chris and Allison Crawford and their two children, Sam and Emily from Maryland were found dead in their home The BAU found a connection between these death's and another families; the Millers, which also consisted of both parents and a son and daughter. Both were deemed as murder-suicides and the other connections' found were that both of the families were found five days after the start of what was supposed to be their family vacation. But now that he was back home all Spencer wanted to do was crawl into the comforts of his own bed and sleep the weekend away, he'd just finish the paperwork for the case on Sunday.

Sighing to himself Spencer unlocked his apartment door and checked the salt lines (which were in the woodwork and window panes as to not be noticed) and the locks on his windows before setting his stuff down and flopping down on his couch.

Reaching into his back pocket Spencer pulled out his cell and his eyes practically bulged at the missed calls he had from Dean, and a few even from Sam. Extremely worried Spencer dialed the all to familiar number and waited in tense silence as the line rung.

"What."

Spencer winced at the sharp yet weary tone Dean had answered with...so now wasn't really a good time...

"Uhh...Dean?"

"Wait- Spencer!"

Spencer blinked at the 180 Dean's voice had done, now he sounded alert and anxious.

"Well. Yeah, Dean you called me like a dozen times."

"Why the hell didn't you answer any of them?! I've been trying to get a hold of you all day! Hell even Sammy's called you!"

"I-I know, I'm sorry. I couldn't answer my phone, Dean I didn't even have time to look at it! But what's wrong? Why'd you call me so much anyhow?"

"It's fine, we needed some information but we managed it figure it out on our own...and uh, just...next time try to pick up okay? And...god damnit this is so fucked up. You know how dad's been missing? It's been like what, three months now?"

"Yeah, have you heard anything? Did you need my help?" Spencer asked, he remembered all to well how angry Dean had been when he called about Mr. Winchester first going missing.

"Umm, sorta. Well he called me, left a message and...there was a EVP on it. I needed help. I couldn't find him on my own and I know you said I shouldn't be dragging Sammy back into hunting when he wanted out and when he's at school now, but I honest to god couldn't do this alone so I...I went to California and I convinced him to come with me. it was supposed to be just for the weekend, he's got- he had a interview for something with Law first thing Monday. We ending up finding a case dad left for us and his journal but no dad."

Spencer's eyes widened, he knew Mr. Winchester ever since he was eleven and he knew he wouldn't go anywhere without his journal.

"We finished the case, turned out to be a woman in white, but Sammy managed to track where dad was going next, he left us coordinates in his journal and well...Sammy wanted to go back to California."

"Did you drive him back?" Spencer asked hesitantly when he realized Dean wasn't continuing.

"Yes I frickin' drove him back!"

"Ok, okay, sorry." Spencer said, "Then what's wrong?"

"God-Damnit, Jess is dead that's what's wrong! I dropped Sam off and as I'm about to drive off his house is on fucking fire! I ran in just to see what, Jess on the ceiling bleeding just like mom was!"

Spencer winced at the reminder of what happened to Dean and Sam's mom but then his heart plummeted when he realized what Dean had said about Jess, he knew Sam's girlfriend. He even met her once a year ago when Sam had surprised him with a visit and even to try and start talking to him again, and he knew Sam had a ring he carried around waiting for the perfect moment to ask her to marry him. Whispering Spencer said,

"Oh...I-Is Sam okay? I have missed calls from him, should I call him? Have you spoken to him? What about Bobby? Did you guys call him?"

"Calm down Brainiac, Sam's...he's alive and that's what matters okay? He's here with me so you don't need to call him. No we haven't called Bobby, I'll give him a call later."

"What about Sam's schooling? He still has a semester left, and the funeral, when is it? Do you guys need me there? I can take some time off, I have a lot of vacation time saved up."

"What's with the 21 questions? I don't know okay! Sam went to the funeral and that's that. This all happened on November 2...There, you know what's going on now, night."

To say Spencer was shocked was a understatement, "What? De-" Before Spencer could even say anything else we was quickly greeted with the dial tone showing him Dean had hung up on him. Spencer blinked down at his cell, he wasn't sure how to feel...he just wanted to know what was what and if they needed him...Dean's reaction, no matter if Spencer didn't blame him, had still hurt. But what really hurt was not knowing about any of this until now...Dean said this had happened on the second but today was the ninth...Throwing his phone on the small table in front of the couch, Spencer stood and walked back towards his bedroom, not seeing the quick message that had been sent to his phone from Dean saying,

'Sorry, for hanging up and for not telling you sooner. We've been busy.'


Ta-Da~!

Here's another new story! I dunno why I'm getting such random ideas for these shows but I'm loving it!

Please Review and lemme know what you guys think, yeah?

PLEASE READ: Spencer's birthday I made it in 1981 that way Dean is 2 years older and Sam is two years younger. And since Spencer is 24 that would make the year 2005 which is the year during Supernatural's first episode "Pilot", the Criminal Minds timeline was no where's near what I needed it to be to make this story work so I changed the times of a lot of things. This is a AU story after all.
