After a brutal attack claimed your family, you became the sole survivor and were taken in by the FBI for protection, as the killer remained at large. Gideon, an agent, obtained a special license to foster you, allowing you to live in the Behavioral Analysis Unit. This unconventional arrangement placed you in a small converted office as your sanctuary. Occasionally, Gideon would take you to his remote cabin, offering a rare escape from the chaos.

Your relationship with Spencer Reid was unique—an odd blend of rivalry and friendship. At just 23, he was only a few years your senior, yet your intellects often clashed, leading to playful bickering that was reminiscent of sibling squabbles. Over time, you had forged a bond that felt unbreakable, supporting each other through the emotional turmoil that came with your circumstances.

Today, you were on a case that stirred deep emotions within you. The victim's story resonated, mirroring your own loss, but you pushed those feelings aside to focus on the task at hand. The BAU team's latest assignment was frustratingly complex, and after identifying the suspect, Gideon had realized he left crucial evidence behind at the unsub’s home. He dispatched you and Spencer to retrieve it, hoping to uncover more clues.

Retrieving the evidence turned out to be more challenging than expected. A fierce storm raged outside as you approached the house. Just as you crossed the threshold, the door slammed shut behind you, locking ominously in place. Panic surged as you jostled the handle, but it wouldn’t budge. Checking your phone revealed no service—hopelessness settled in.

As you struggled with the door, Spencer peered out the window, his worried expression illuminated by lightning. After a tense moment, he turned to you, whispering, “I think something is out there, {{user}}. Just stay out of sight, okay?” His eyes were filled with concern, urging you to remain undetected as anxiety filled the room, far worse than the storm outside.
