"Damn it listen to me you aren't dyeing on me not now" His words were all I could focus on my vision was blurring and black dots threatened to cut it out cut my vision completely.
"Emily pleases breath" when he said it I realized I was gritting my teeth so hard I wasn't breathing. I fought to breath fought to stay alive.
"A...Ar...Aron" I grasped.
'Don't talk just breath there's an ambulance on its way" he whispered. I could feel his hand pressing against the wound and knew it wasn't good, I knew that much. The black dots swam I gasped for air again realizing I wasn't breathing again. I heard footsteps someone was coming.
"Sir you have to let go so we can look at her," I heard someone say. I tried to grab at him; I didn't want him to not touch me. I wanted to cling to him but moving my arm sent pain shooting through my body.
"Emily Don't move!!!!" Aaron yelled at me, his hands holding me down. I felt my body spasm when the EMT touched the wound. I cried out.
"Is she conscious?" someone asked.
"I think so" I could here Aaron’s voice. I wanted to yell that I was conscious and could feel this so they had better be gentle but the
Thought of using my vocal chords didn't seem like a good idea.
"Miss can you here me?" The EMT asked, moving his fingers to the shallow cut on my neck.
"Aaron makes him stop" I screamed feeling my body spasm again at the pain. I knew at that moment that the neck wound was worse than I had originally thought.
"Damn it you're hurting her more" Aaron said.
"We need to know how bad she's hurt." the EMT said moving his hand back toward the wound. I squirmed to get away using all my strength to get out from under Aaron and away from the EMT.
"Me please" Hotch whispered. I whimpered softly but stopped fighting. "Just get her to the hospital and stop trying to look at and touch her" Hotch said.
"Look we need to know how bad those cuts are" the EMT said.
"I can FEEL it and that changes things," I tried to yell but more gasped than yelled.
"Ok" He said. “The ambulance is out front" I felt him pick me up and carry me out the front doors of the hotel. I could hear the fountain water; see the chandelier barely still attached to the ceiling. Then I saw the sky for a brief moment before I was looking at the roof of an ambulance.
I remember them putting the oxygen on, and the warmth of Hotch's hand in mine. I don't remember much because I kept losing consciousness. After a while I realized that some one was whispering to me...and wishing to stay out of the darkness that made the pain go away, I fought to hear what they were saying.
"It's going to be okay Em, we're almost there just hold on a little longer."
My heart ached when I realized it was Hotch's voice in my ear over and over again....

POV: Emily
"Em I have an Idea but it's risky" Hotch said walking up behind me.
"What is it?" I asked knowing I would do anything within my power to stop this guy.
"We lure him here we know he stalks in hotels we make sure he stalks either you or JJ rather than anyone else. We'll all be here and all we need is a little luck and we can get him.
"I'll do it" I said softly.
"I knew you would I just wish you wouldn't it worries me you could get hurt even killed doing this.
"I don't care we kneed to get this guy and soon" I replied.
"Ok get some rest we'll talk tomorrow" he said and left the hotel room. I lay back on my bed and closed my eyes but sleep didn't come.
***********************************************************************************************************
2:30 AM
Finally I got up and went down to the hotel bar it was now 2:30 in the mooring so I assumed that everyone else would already be asleep. I was wrong Hotch sat in the bar off to the side.
"Hi" I said walking up to him.
"Can't sleep either?" he asked.
"No" I replied honestly.
"Neither can I. I'm worried that it won’t go as planed and someone will get hurt" He said.
"We'll be ok" I said softly.
"You don't believe that if you did you wouldn't be down here you'd be asleep" he said.
"Ok I'm worried but that's not the point" I said.
"Yes it is you could get killed JJ could get killed if this doesn't go as planned we could all get killed and I don't like risking my agents like this" He said
"We have to" I said.

"Hi" someone said walking up and sitting beside me.
"Hi" I replied studding him, he wore a baseball cap jeans and a long sleeved shirt.
"Have we met before?" He asked.
"I'm not from around here" I said.
"Neither am I" He said. I could see his hands in his pocket wrap around something. I tapped my fingers on the arm of the chair. I saw Morgan walk in saw Rossi stand at the bar.
"You're a damn fed!" He growled pulling the knife from his pocket. I saw it move then Pain.
