Hey, a new exciting story of bones. My other story will alsoo move on, but this was something I wanted to write. Enjoy.
Disclaimer: All charecters belong to Fox and Stephan King. I don't owe any of the charecters from Rose Red and Bones. Believe me, if I did, Pam wouold not have died in the movie.
Note: I had some review about my language, and I tried to get them out here. I'm really trying. I hope this is better.
Working on chaper 9 right now, tips are always welcome.
1. The body in the lab
A skeleton was watching Angela, the same hollow eyes. Her pencil didn't want to move on the paper. She had been doing this for many years, and she could recognize every remarkable facial structure. This time it disturbed her. This body had arrived from Seattle, a young couple had found the body in their near by pool. It looked like the woman had lay there for several days, tough the couple claimed that the body hadn't been there more than a day.
Angela once again looked at the body, she recognized the face. She snacked for air. She once again didn't want to believe it was her. She silently putted on the computer. And watched how the screen turned on, waiting for a picture to pop up. Was her hunch right? Was it her best friend lying right in front of her, was Brennan really dead? The picture popped up.
Angela's fear came true, it was Brennan, Brennan had gone on a trip to the west of America, promoting her new book. She hadn't called Angela back on her phone for a while. Angela thought that she had been way to busy. Now she knew that her best friend had been dead in Seattle. Killed by god knows who. Actually killed was not proven yet. Cam had found out what had killed this person, it looked like she literally scared herself to death. But the water in her longs proved the opposite.
On her wrist their were signs of a struggle. Angela didn't move anymore. How could her best friend be dead. She collapsed. She cried, like she had never cried before. Cam entered the room, to find Angela on the floor.
"What's wrong, Angela?" Cam asked. She watched in her office, but didn't seem to find anything that could upset Angela that bad. She hadn't taken a look at the screen with the victim on it.
"It's Brennan." Angela stood up "It's Brennan, the body that was shipped from Seattle. Found with those old people. It's her."
"Are you sure, Angela?" Cam sat down next to her. "Are you sure it's her."
Angela nodded at Cam, She watched the screen in front of Angela, she saw the picture, and recognized her. Although it felt so surreal, like she was having some kind of nightmare. Someone off her team was murdered. She could imagine the reaction of the rest of the team, finding out that their boss was no longer living. Zach was going to be heartbroken. He had always had a special bond with Temperance Brennan, and now she was dead.
Cam took the phone, she had to call Booth. She had to tell him. This was going to break his heart. Cam knew that Booth loved Brennan, he had never told her, but he loved her. He would die for her. She dialed the number. She heard that annoying beep, again and again. Until she heard his voices.
'Booth.' She heard him say. Booth wasn't aware of the case, the people in Seattle had no suspicion of murder, so the FBI had not been called. In Seattle they had clamed that the person was drunk and found her way in to the pond of the couple. Where she then drown. Cam's evidence proved against it. Her toxologie showed that the victim hadn't drunk anything. Or taken any medication and or drugs.
"Booth, I think you should come to the lab." Cam said "I can't tell you this over the phone. "
"What's wrong, Camille?" She heard him say on the other side of the line.
"Just come here." Camille hung up the phone, and made her way to the platform. Zach was coming to her.
"Dr. Saroyan, I found some interesting things, she was wearing a white dress, something you sleep in. Hodgins found out that the victim didn't drown in the pool she was found in. The water from the pool doesn't match the water in her lungs. Her skeleton showed that she was forced to stay under water." Zach Addy said "We've found some DNA, and we had time to run it true the computer. There it gets weird. The DNA belongs to Ellen Rimbauer."
"That is not that weird." Cam said while she looked at his notes.
"It is." Zach sat down "Cause Mrs. Rimbauer disappeared in 1950 in her house. She was never seen again."
"So Mrs. Rimbauer is not dead." Cam replied "That happens all the time."
"No" Hodgins stood next to them. "This woman is defiantly dead. She lived in that house in Seattle, Rose Red I believe. It's interesting by the way. Over 20 people went missing in the house. Her daughter, her maid everyone."
"The house literally eats them" Zach completed "Or that is was the papers tell us. So this Ellen Rimbauer disappears on a age around 70. It's impossible that she is still alive."
"Well, so you think that Brennan was killed by a ghost is that what you're saying?" Cam was mad with herself for telling them like that, it was their boss, killed by the ghost or someone near to Ellen Rimbauer.
"It's Dr. Brennan?" Zach sat down "It's dr. Brennan who died."
Hodgins watched the bones. "I can not believe it. I hoped this day would never come. I hoped their would never be a member of the team in the lab. Dead."
"I'm sorry, you guys." Cam said. "I shouldn't have said it like that."
"Does Booth know?" Hodgins asked while he saw Booth walking true the lab. Cam shook her head. And he watched Booth getting closer.
"He's not going to get this well." Hodgins replied "He loved Dr. B. more then anything in this world, he just never admitted it. And now they'll never get the life they were suppose to have."
Booth was standing in front of them. He saw the body, a vibration went true his whole body. The body was different then all those other bodies. It seemed like he had a connection with it. The squint around it, seemed to be sad. And he saw that Angela was crying in her office. The only person that wasn't in the lab, was his beautiful partner, Bones. He was sure, if she'd be here, he wouldn't have felt this way. He felt scared and alone, without Bones. Cam's phone call also made him concerned. He recognized her voice. She only used that kind of voice when someone important in their life's had died.
"Booth, follow met to my office please." Cam sounded down, more down then usual. He could hear the pain in her voice, the fear. They stopped in her office. She turned to him, and made a motion to sit down in the chair. She sat down right next to him.
"Why was the FBI not called in?" Booth asked
"Because we had no reason to believe it was murder." Cam said "But it turns out, the Seattle Police department was wrong. It is murder. This woman was forced to stay under water."
"So that is why you called me in?" Booth was about to be relieved "Why such a panicked tone on the phone."
"That is not why I called you. 5 minutes ago, we still thought it was an accident, now we're sure it's murder. The reason I called you in was because of who she is. Her identity. I wanted you to hear in person."
"Couldn't you just said that on the phone." Booth was tapping his foot nervously.
"Booth." Cam sat closer to him. "I called you, because this is personal to all off us. I didn't want you to be alone when you found out. I wanted the team to support you."
"Camille, what's going on?" Booth stood up "Where's Bones, she should have gotten back by now."
"In a way, she did get back Seeley." Cam said "She just didn't get back the right way."
"Cam what the hell are you talking about?" Booth walked to the other side of the office. "I haven't seen her, and she hasn't returned my calls when she left on her trip."
"Seeley, it's Dr. Brennan who's the victim." Cam stood, up walked to him. Putted her hand on his shoulder. "She's the murder victim brought in. I'm sorry."
"No, it can not be her." Booth walked away "You probably just made a mistake, it can not be her. It can not be her." He sank trough his feet, sitting on the floor crying. He hadn't expected Cam to tell him that kind of news. He didn't want to be strong in front of Cam, he just wanted to express how he was feeling. It explained why, he had felt such a strong connection to the bones.
"I'm going to kill, who did this to her." Booth stood up "You give me the killer, and I go there, and kill him."
"Booth!" Cam yelled "We'll catch him. We'll find out who did this to her. And he's going to jail."
"No, Cam you miss understood me. I'm going to kill him. I should have protected her. I should have been on with her. I should have joined her on the book tour." Booth said "Now she's dead. It's all my fold."
"No, she didn't want you to tag along." Cam replied "She wanted to do this by herself."
"So do you know who did it?" Booth looked at Cam, while she looked away from him. "So, you know who did it, right? But you don't want to tell me."
"Yes and no." Cam just watched him. "DNA, proves that Ellen Rimbauer has killed Temperance Brennan."
"So what's the problem? Let's go arrest her." Booth stood up, tying to keep the emotions to himself.
"Ellen Rimbauer despaired 60 years ago." Cam replied
