Hey everyone, here is a new story for you all. This is a combination of LaRieNGuBleR's mind and my mind. We had similar plot bunnies bouncing around in our heads and we decided to join up and create this. She is the wonderful brains behind this and I am the one putting it all down for you to read as I have some free time on my hands, I'm throwing some of my stuff in some places but not too much. I really hope you enjoy this and decide to stay with it. I have to admit that this won't get updated everyday as LaRieNGuBleR and myself have to discuss chapters before I send out each chapter. This will get updated often so don't panic there. Okay to the main feature!
Enjoy and please review! Remember to give props to my wonderful partner as she is the brilliant brains behind this. I may have turned her to the dark side though.
All mistakes are my own
Reid looked down at his paperwork and revelled at how quickly he was getting through it. His day was going great and he knew he had a box full of new books ready to read. A small hand came on his shoulder, he looked around to see JJ smiling at him. "Hey Spence. Think you could handle a few more files."
"Sure," he smiled. "Put them on the pile."
JJ leaned forward and put them on the small pile. "You are really getting through them today."
"Just having a good day, I guess."
She ruffled his hair and made her way back to her desk. He spent the next two hours finishing the reports and files added to his pile. He looked around and noticed that everyone was beginning to leave for the weekend. He closed the last file and placed it in his outbox before grabbing his satchel and packing away his things. Morgan walked over and patted him on the back. "Hey, pretty boy. We're all heading out for a drink. You in?"
"Sorry, I'm not up for it. I just want to go home and read some new books."
"Come on, Reid. You need to get out and have some fun."
"A night on my couch with my books is fun," Reid smiled as he slung his bag over his shoulder. "It's the weekend. Enjoy it and don't worry about me. Just don't consume too much alcohol. I don't want another drunken phone call."
"Are you sure I can't persuade you to come out?"
"Afraid not," he smirked. "Morgan, go and enjoy yourself. I'll give you a call on Sunday."
"Alright," Morgan sighed. "I better hear from you on Sunday. Take care of yourself and call me if you want to do something."
"I will, I promise."
Reid felt more comfortable than he had all week with his new book in his hand and a hot drink next to him. He looked at the two piles of books he had on the table, each book containing a new story and new information. He began to turn page after page, his mind automatically remembering every letter and word. An hour later, he placed down the third book and smiled. He liked to take a few minutes to go over the book in his mind.
He reached out for a fourth book but panicked as a hand gripped his hair and pulled him back, a large cloth slammed over his mouth and nose. He struggled fiercely, his feet kicking out as he held his breath. His books fell to the floor and his coffee mug crashed to the floor, the shards and liquid going everywhere. Reid's hair got pulled again causing him to yelp and breath in the chloroform. He clawed at the hand holding the cloth and let out a fearful whine as everything began to go fuzzy.
"Incredible," a voice said above him, one that sounded far away as everything went dark. "You are both so full of fight."
His new subject became limp as the chloroform fulfilled its purpose. He let him fall to the side. Brown hair, brown eyes and a thin figure, there was almost no difference. In the subjects before, there had been some obvious differences. Walking to the sofa, he examined the agent, his new subject.
This experiment was going to become his best yet. All his work would finally be recognised.
A fog filled his mind as he started to become more and more aware. His entire body felt weak and sluggish. It took a few minutes for him to open his eyes, he opened them to see a floor. Pushing up from the floor, he struggled to fight the nausea in his body. His vision cleared. He took in the surroundings. A large metal cage surrounded him, a large light above him illuminated the cage. He saw another cage next to him, there was someone in there but he didn't know who it was, the person was facing away from him.
"Hello Dr Reid," a calm voice said from the shadows. "It is quite nice to have a fellow doctor in my company."
"Who-" Reid tried to say before he took a deep breath, the fog still weighing down his mind. "Who are you?"
"I'm a man of science, just like you."
Reid watched as a man he estimated was his late 40's came out of the shadows, a smile on his face. "Dr Reid, you are a man of science. I know that you of all people will understand the logic and benefits of my experiments. I don't think your counterpart will be as accepting."
"Experiments," Reid moaned as he tried to stand but failed. "What are you talking about?"
A small moan came from the other cage. He looked over and saw the person beginning to awaken slowly.
"I am doing experiments of great importance," the man said with excitement. "I have studied twins and the almost supernatural connection between them. Some experiments have failed but I have had some success."
"I'mmm not a twin," Reid slurred.
"That is where you are wrong."
The man who had kidnapped him gestured to the other cage. Reid turned and watched as the person inside it sat up. Shock hit him as he watched the person look at him. It was a man. A man who looked just like him. They were identical to the very last detail.
"W-What the hell?" Reid gasped. His twin looked back at him with wide eyes, shock filling them.
"Dr Spencer Reid, I would like to introduce you to your twin brother, Theo Samuel Gordon. Theo, this is your older brother by a few minutes, Dr Spencer Reid."
Reid watched as Theo began to panic. "Look, please! I don't know what you want. I don't want any part of it. This is a trick!"
"I assure you, Mr Gordon, this is no trick," the man smiled. "I must admit, I expected more after researching your brother. He has genius intellect, an array of BA's and three doctorates. You however, have a low paying job and a difficult life. Identical but in the aspects of your lives, completely opposite. Fascinating."
"Screw you," Theo spat before glancing at Reid.
"Let us go!" Reid demanded. "My team will find us and you will pay for taking us. Kidnapping a federal agent carries a heavy sentence and that will only be one charge."
Reid got to his feet slowly and made his way to front of the cage. He put his hands on the metal of the cage but screamed as an electric shock ran through him. He fell to the floor and curled up in himself as he continued to twitch violently.
"Hey!" Theo shouted at their kidnapper. "Leave him alone!"
"The experiment begins," the man grinned happily. "I'll be back soon with the necessary equipment."
Theo watched as the man left the room, he looked over to Reid. He had to admit that he was freaked out. In front of him, was his identical brother. One he never knew existed. So many questions were crossing his mind.
"Are you okay?" he asked.
Reid panted for a moment before taking a deep breath. "D-Don't t-touch the ca-cage."
"No shit!"
Theo stared at Reid. He studied his eyes. He could tell that they had seen too much, he knew that look all too well. He carried the same look in his eyes. He spoke.
"Why don't I know you?"
