The sound of sirens, screams and shouts filled the air along with the strong smell of smoke as Booth and Hodgins reached the scene. They stepped out of the car, and Hodgins looked over at Booth but he showed no emotion on his face but stealy resolve. Hodgins followed him over towards the flaming reckage till a tall man stopped them.
"What do you two think your doing? No-one is going back in there and especially not suvillians" he ordered them angrily. Booth reached into his pocket and took out his badge to show the man.
"Is every one out? Everyone's safe right?" he asked and only now could Hodgins here the worry and the fear in his voice that he'd so tried to hide. The fireman shook his head sadly before looking back up at them.
"There's one lady still trapped inside, everone else is being treated over there" the young man pointed over to where to ambulance's where waiting and a swarm of people stood "but it's just to dangerous to go back in untill we put out the fire, she's probably already dead" he added as he saw the look in Booth's eye. Hodgins was already on his way to the ambulance area, frantically searching for Angela and Bones amongst the many wounded, the doctors and the onlookers.
"Hodgins?". Tears swelled in his eyes as he herd the soft whisper of a voice call to him. He turned around and rushed to her side, wrapping his arms around her in a tight hug till she gasped with pain and quickly let her go, looking her up and down. She wasn't injured to badly, he took her face gently in his hands, leaning down to kiss her softly.
"I was so worried.. " he finally managed to get out between sobs but Angela shook her head, putting her hand up to silence him.
"Brennan, you need to get Brennan out" she whispered, tears in her eyes as she looked up at him, holding his hand so tightly her finger marks where digging into his skin. He nodded, kissing her lightly on the forehead before rushing back to find Booth, his hand now marked with five, thin red cresent moons. Booth stood at the edge of the car accident, his jacket clutched tightly in his hand and his phone on the ground by his feet as he stared out at the flaming reck and took a deep breath.
"Booth! Booth it's Brennan, she's still in there we have to get someone too..." Hodgin called out as he ran towards him but stopped as Booth turned to face him, tears running down his cheeks as he nodded.
"I know, but no-one will go back in..." he whispered bearly audibely before turning back towards the car reck and walking towards it. Hodgins watching as he diapeared behind the flames.
Brennan could barely see through the smoke as she lay in the back of the car, her jacket clenched tightly in her hand as she tried to breath through the thick smoke and ash. Inside the car was heating up fast and she swallowed hard as she lay still, unable to move except for when she crawled from the front seat, which had been half destroyed, mangled and squashed at impact, to the safer back seat. As she looked out the clouded window in despair she saw a silouete aproaching fast. Her heart skipped a beat as she watched, had he come? The man aproached, running to the passenger side of what he knew to be Angela's car but he saw no-one there. He looked around, the only comfort to him was that he could see no body.
"Booth!' Brennan cried out, tears streaming down her cheeks "Booth...". He looked up, moving down to the next door and peering in to see her lying helplessly on the back seat, her face smeared with black ash that was streaked with tears.
"Get back Bones" he shouted, wrapping his jacket around his fist he tried to open the hot metal door but it wouldn't budge "sheild your eyes" he ordered. Brennan pulled her jacket up over her face as she sat up against the other door of the car. Booth took a deep breath before puching the glass of the window and it shattered with ease. Carefully breaking off every last jagged piece he leaned in lay his coat down over the broken glass.
"Bones, come here. Quick!" he urged her and she slowly pulled herself over to him, cringing with the pain at every movement "Hey, it's ok. I'm here now" he smiled down at her as he pulled her up and out through the window, craddling her in his arms "Just hold on tight". She threw her arms around his neck, clinging to him tightly and closing her eyes as he carried her out. She could feel the heat of the flames as they quickly took over the car behind them. She breathed a sigh of relief, Booth had gotten there just in time, just like she knew he would. She might not believe in god, or some higher power but she believed in him.
Hodgins stood in the light of the flickering flames watching, waiting. He'd been standing there for ten mintutes now, maybe fifteen. The Fireman walked over to him and stood next to him in silence as he stood waiting. Atlast he turned to him, placing a firm hand on his shoulder.
"What are you waiting for?" he asked kindly "Did you know that woman?". Hodgins nodded and turned to him.
"Yea I know her, we work together" he answered plainly before turning back to the firey reckage. The heat was starting to get to him, his legs where sore and the waiting was killing him but he wasn't moving. Not yet... As he stared intently into the flames he saw a dark silouette, swallowing hard as he watched it getting closer and closer till Booth emerged from the flmaes carrying a limp Brennan in his arms. He headed straight towards the ambulances as the fireman stared in disbelief. Hodgins ran to reach them, panting heavily as he walked quickly at Booth's side.
"Is she...?" was all he could utter the to solem Booth. Booth turned to him, giving him a small smile that reasured him for now as they quickened their pace to reach medical help for the lifeless brunette who lay in Booth's arms. A doctor looked up as they reached the ambulances and rushed to them, to Brennan's aid.
"How long was she in there for?" he asked as he checked her pulse and quickly moved down to her leg, where blood was quickly spilling out onto the pavement. He looked back up at the two of them as he quickly placed a thick piece of gauze over the wound to stop the bleeding. Booth and Hodgins looked at each other and back at the doctor.
"She just came out now"
