Bones got the call early in the morning. She didn't want to wake Booth up, so she whispered into the phone. She unseeingly couldn't escape his grasp so she knew there was only one other choice. She started to shake him slightly.

He groaned. "Five more minutes, Bones."

She sighs "We don't have 5 more minutes Booth."

Booth noticed the distress in his wife's tone, so he released his arm from around her, and she got up, grabbed a pile of clothes, and then started to get dressed.

After a couple moments, he proceeded to ask "What's up?"

She walks out of the bedroom, with a single word response. "Sky."

He immediately recognized the actual meaning to what otherwise seemed like a corny smart-ass response. He got dressed, and as she was downstairs making breakfast he went to wake up Christine.

While waiting for Booth, Bones cooked up some eggs, and made toast. She looked at her phone, noticing it was a text from Zack, he assistant.

We've got a body, meet me at the scene?

She yells up to Booth "Case!"

He proceeds downstairs, with a fully dressed Christine. She although was not fully awake, her long blonde hair fell in front of her face, and dropped over her sleepy blue eyes. Booth checked his phone, and a text from the FBI had come as well.

Bones looks to Booth, expecting a slight bit of doubt in his tone, but instead is firm and ordering almost. "We have to go she needs us. She needs you."

A couple minutes later, they arrived at a building, Booth helped Christine out of the car, she was wide awake now, a little grumpy, but awake. He held his daughter's hand, and linked his other arm to his wife's, and they proceeded into the child service's building.

Zack was worried Dr. Brennan had not gotten his text, he and one of the interns, Wendell, proceeded to the crime scene.

Bones and Booth sat in the waiting room for an hour, before the clerk said "Paperwork has been filed she's all yours."

They led them to a more decorated and nicer room. A social worker and teenager were talking. It was her. She resembled herself in so many ways, but mainly she reminded Bones of her own mother.

Booth coughed causing the social worker to turn and smile. And as the girl turned her eyes light up and she nearly charged at Bones, gripping her in tight bear hug as she shouted "Aunt Tempy."

Bones wrapped her arms around the girl, and she says "Oh Sky." The girl turned to Booth who was now carrying Christine, in question, but passed it over, looking back to Bones.

Booth got a good look at her. God, does she look even more like Bones. Booth had met her once before, around the time when Christine was born. Sky had been a dorky little twelve-year-old.

Sky cleared her throat and says "Is that Christine, she's gotten so big."

Bones laughs "It's been four years."

Christine looks to her father, who put her down to meet Sky, and Bones says "Christine, this is your cousin Sky. She's gonna come live with us while Uncle Russ is away."

Booth noticed Sky's eyes looked like they had just taken a bullet. She brushed it off, and Christine says "Did Uncle Russ die?"

Bones' eyes looked hurt, at the thought, but she said "No Christine. He's simply away on work."

Christine redirects her attention to Sky and says "Is he a spy?"

Bones laughed as she imagined her older brother a spy, well he was good at pretending and hiding. Sky laughed as well, and said "Kind of. But it's a secret you can't tell no one ok?"

Christine nods. Bones looks down at her phone as it went off again.

Wendell and I have moved the body Dr. B. Is everything alright? –Zack

Bones looked to Booth and says "I have to get back to the lab. You ought to get to work as well."

Booth says "Christine's got school. What about Sky?" He looked to make sure the teen couldn't hear them, but she and Christine were playing patty cake over in the chairs, full of laughter.

"I'll have to take her to the lab with me, Booth. There's no other choice."

Booth looks back to Sky and says "You really think she could handle a dead body, with everything that's going on with Russ."

Bones says "She's 16, Booth. And besides, Russ is just away."

Booth says "Running away."

She gives him a hard look and she turns her attention back to the girls. She smiles "Christine's got school, and Booth has work, so Sky do you mind coming down to the lab with me?"

Sky gets up, with excitement, and says "Yeah. I always loved when you used to read your murder books to me. Reality help keep the illusion nightmares away."Bones looked down to her feet.

How much was she like me? She ignored it and together they walked out, almost like a family.
