In some fanfictions, JJ could get hurt during a hostage situation. For example, she might try to negotiate with the hostage - taker, but things go wrong and she gets shot. Her injury then becomes a catalyst for the team to work even harder to resolve the situation. Another idea is that she is targeted by a cult because of her work with the BAU. They manage to capture her and inflict harm on her, and the story could revolve around the team's efforts to rescue her and take down the cult. Also, she could be injured in a car accident while chasing a suspect, and the team has to deal with their fear of losing her while also trying to solve the case that led to the accident.
One possible storyline could be that they are on a case and get caught in a trap set by the unsub. For example, they might be lured into an abandoned building where the unsub has rigged it to collapse. JJ could get trapped under some rubble while trying to protect Penelope. Another could be that they are poisoned during an investigation. Maybe they accept food or drinks from someone connected to the case who has ulterior motives. Penelope might be the first to show symptoms, and JJ is desperately trying to find a cure while also dealing with her own growing illness from the poison.
Well, perhaps the shooting of JJ could be part of a larger conspiracy against the BAU. The team starts to uncover clues that lead them to believe JJ was targeted not just randomly but as a way to get to the whole team. As JJ recovers, she may have some post - trauma that affects her ability to return to work immediately.

It could be that Reid has unknowingly crossed paths with a criminal organization. They kidnap him to extract information about the FBI's investigations into their activities. Reid has to endure torture and interrogation, but he also tries to analyze his captors' behavior to find a way to escape.
One scenario could be that Reid gets hurt during a chase. Maybe he trips and falls while running after an unsub, and sprains his ankle. This would slow him down and make him vulnerable.
