Chapter 2
"This better be important!" Booth hollered as he ran up the platform. "If Its not going to beat the shit in a matter of seconds" He warned as Hodgins rushed over and brought an image up on the computer.
"I found something that can prove Dr. Brennan is innocent!" Hodgins said frantically. Booth gave him a warning to get on with it.
"The particulates that were found at the murder scenes, none of them belonged their. So then I took the letter of each one and it was a message." Hodgins explained while typing bringing up image after image.
"How does this prove Bones is innocent?" Booth asked, now curious rather then annoyed at Hodgins now.
"There was no way that Dr. Brennan could have made this message." Hodgins said, almost shouting. "She knows Bones, Not soil or bugs." He added quickly standing up.
"Look, I don't mean to burst your bubble there; But anybody can spell out 'I win' if they want to. It sure as hell doesn't take dirt to do it" Booth said with a chuckle. Without another word he started to walk away. "Booth! Wait!" Hodgins hollered after Booth.
"I have to go, its late and no matter how badly I want to get Bones off for murder, I have to sleep… at least try to." He hollered as he walked out the doors.
"Of course you do…" Hodgins said, now disappointed that Booth wouldn't listen.
"I want the jury to take a long hard look at my client and tell me, does she look like a killer?" Brennan's lawyer said. It was the last day of her trial and she was scared to death of how the jury saw her. Was she guilty in their eyes? Was she innocent in their eyes? All she wanted was the be able to see her daughter grow up and help put real murderers away.
"All the evidence leads back to this woman, she had the means to do so. After all, she is a Forensic Anthropologist if anyone can make it look like someone else did it… she can" Caroline hated to be saying those words, because she knew the truth.
"If you want to put my client, who is devoted to putting murders away. She is a mother of a infant daughter, does my client look like she would throw everything away when you look at that beautiful baby girl?" Her lawyer argued.
"I hope your right about this, Booth. Using Christine to strike the jury in the heart" Brennan said through the bars that they had put her behind.
"I am sure about it, Temperance. I wouldn't be putting her at risk if I wasn't." He said squeezing her hand through the bars. He could see the tears forming in her eyes and he wanted nothing more then to hug her, but he couldn't do that.
"I love you" She whispered as she saw the officer coming toward them.
"I Love you too, Bones" he turned around as he heard the officer approach.
"Times up, she's got to be back in the courtroom now." The officer said, placing his hands on his hips. Booth have her hand one last squeeze before he let go of it.
