Serendipity
A/N: The chapters will be done in different perspectives. Also I'll try to keep all chapters between 250 and 500 words.

Chapter 1
"There is something I need to talk to you about, sir" FBI Special Agent Seeley Booth says slowly, trying to keep eye contact with the man sitting across from him.
Hackler sits behind his desk and doesn't say anything, but arches a brow in a way to tell the agent to keep going.
Booth takes a deep breath, trying to remember the words he rehearsed in his head over and over. Now or never.
"Dr. Brennan and I-" he doesn't finish his sentence because his phone starts to ring, a soothing and jazzy melody filling the room. It's her.
He is half-tempted not to answer, because what he is doing right now is pretty darn important. But she's the one calling, and he knows she wouldn't call unless it was urgent.
He pulls the phone from his belt and apologizes to his boss; he turns around on the chair to give him a pretend sense of privacy and flips the phone open, holding it tightly against his ear.
"Not the best time Bones" he whispers.
"Booth" she sounds scared, and it's when he knows something is not right. She's never scared.
"Temperance, what's wrong?" she has him halfway through a panic attack already. His free hand is pushing his body up so he can make a run for it if she doesn't tell him what's going on soon.
"Seeley" she sobs, he's already at the door. His boss is up, half following him and trying to understand what's going on.
"I'm bleeding"
And for that moment, when her words are half hidden by another sob, his heart stops beating.
I do not own Bones or any of its characters.
I'm reposting this story in a slightly different fashion then before and I hope I can get as a great a response as before.
Please review.
