He Is Back. Chapter 2
Earlier that day.
Temperance was looking over a skeleton from limbo. Booth had not had a case in a week and she was already gotten through 2 limbo skeletons.
Booth walked through the lab doors and saw Brennan squinting at the bones. He smiled and thought "That's my Bones."
"Hey Bones." He called from the doors and Brennan looked up. "What Booth do we have a case?" She said as he came closer.
"Nope just came by to see you." Booth smiled his cheeky grin. Brennan sighed that grin made her melt inside.
Booth swiped his card and entered the platform. "Wanna go to the diner?" he asked. Brennan looked at the remains and the at Booth.
He was giving her the puppy dog face and he knew she wouldn't resist.
"Fine Booth." She gave in and walked off the platform with Booth.
Booth thought in his head "Works every time."
They left the Jeffersonian and got to Booth's car. Just as Brennan was about to open her mouth Booth said "I'm driving."
"Booth." Brennan whined "Why do you always have to drive?"
Booth smiled "Because i have the gun."
(BREAK)
At the diner.
They choose their usual spot and the waitress got their orders.
Brennan frowned "Why didn't you order apple pie? You always get apple pie."
Booth looked at Brennan "Because i don't want pie right now."
Brennan thought this was unusual but left it alone.
They had eaten and Brennan had requested to go back to the Jeffersonian. They were just leaving as Booth's phone rang.
"Booth." He answered.
Brennan turned and saw Booth's face go from frowning to stern.
"Yes sir, right away sir." Booth hung up.
"Who was that?" Brennan asked.
"Cullen." Booth said walking fast to his SUV.
"Whats wrong?" "Howard Epps has escaped from prison." Booth said as he got into the car.
"What how did that happen? It is supposed to be maximum security. "I don't know how it happened but im taking you to the Jeffersonian and im getting Cam to triple security!"
All Brennan could do was let him yell.
(BREAK)
As Brennan left the Jeffersonian she could already hear Booth yelling in her head that she shouldn't go anywhere alone but she needed to go home.
She got into the car and drove off.
Now she wished that she had told someone...anyone.
(BREAK)
Brennan awoke with a start, she realised that she was bound at the ankles and her arms as she painfully remembers what happened.
"Good morning Dr Brennan." She looked up and saw Epps standing infront of her. She noticed that she was in a siting up position.
Epps walked away into the darkness and flicked on some lights. Brennan was immediately blinded. A gasp escaped her lips as she shut her eyes, she had a splitting headache.
Epps laughed as she squinted at him. "Do you know where we are Dr Brennan?"
She looked around and shook her head.
"I guess you wouldn't i think only your partner has been here...Welcome to my basement." She looked at Epps and noticed that he had stubble on his face that wasn't there before.
"Ah yes im guessing your wondering how long you have been unconcious?"
"Yes." She croaked, she really need a drink of water.
"It has been about almost 3 days." Epps smirked.
Brennan thought back. Two days ago it was Friday night so it must be Monday morning.
Brennan groaned as she tried to swallow.
"I take from that, that you are thirsty correct?"
Brennan nodded. Epps put down a bottle of water just outside her reach and laughed.
Brennan sighed and a tear slide down her face.
"Oh come now Dr Brennan it's not that far."
Brennan stretched as far as she could and her finger tips hit plastic. She then tried to gently nudge the bottle in her direction until she could grasp on to it.
"Your going to have to try harder because that wasn't even cruel."
Brennan took a gulp and looked at Epps. "You never used to torture your victims what happened Howard?"
"Prison is what happened Dr Brennan they dressed me up as a pumpkin and they slowly lowered my I.Q."
Brennan nodded.
"I can also tell on your face that you are wondering about your dear partner."
Brennan looked shocked she was indeed wondering about Booth.
Epps laughed "What i have done to him is all so sad." and walked away.
