1. Chapter 1

HI This is my first "Bones" fanfic and I do not own any characters I just like to borrow them for my amusement! This story is just jumped into my head after watching the season finale. So enjoy

It had been three months since Booth had broken off the engagement between him and Dr. Temperance Brennan and their relationship had suffered because of it. They no longer could have easy conversations like they used to, and everything that was so easy for them before was now an ongoing struggle to keep up appearances. For Bones it was the emotional betrayal she felt from having her attempt at loving freely thrown so carelessly back at her, for Booth it was seeing the women he loved in pain and knowing that he had caused that his mind he felt that he had failed to do the thing he has sworn to do over and over again, catch Pelant. Booth knew if he could just catch the man who had forced him to hurt the love of his life with no explanation and tell her the whole story everything could go back to how it was before, however this was easier said than done. In those three months Pelant had stayed quiet, and as time went on and the team went on solving murders the team began to wonder if Palante would ever come back. until one day, when the Jeffersonian forensics team along with agent Seeley Booth got the call about an apparent murder victim found in the woods by a group of kids.

Upon arrival to the crime scene and the Jeffersonian team went to work. While Booth went to question the kids that had found the body.

" By the appearance of the victims pelvis, I can determine that the victim was a female approximately 35-45 years old who has given birth." Said as she continued to look at the Bones.

"Nice job Bones." Said Booth who was trying to get a conversation started with Bones " Any idea what killed her?"

" No. there are a lot of fractures and chips on the bones here." Said " However, with these injuries we can't rule out torture. We have to get her and back to the Jeffersonian where Angela can get an I.D and we can figure out who would want to do such an awful thing."

" Alright, sounds good do you need a ride back? I wanted to talk with you." Said Booth still trying to repair their damaged relationship.

"No. It's alright. I drove myself and I don't want to leave my car out in the middle of nowhere. Thanks Booth"
