Bones awoke from her nap in intense pain. She had tears in her eye and she could hardly move. Crawling across the bed she reached her purse. Searching thru it till she found the pain pills, she down two of them dry. In a half hour or so she was feeling strong enough to get up and shower. The shower was hot and made her body feel better and unknotted. She still had pain but it made it easer to move, so Booth couldn't see.

A half hour later Booth knocked on the shower door.

"Are you going to stay in their all day we have to meet the crew, their waiting for the world-famous Dr. Temperance Brennan Forensic Anthropologist, to do her mystery solving thing down in the pit."

"Two more minutes and I'll meet you in the coffee shop next door, please Booth.

Booth can you get me the same type of coffee as before?"

"No problem Bones I'll be quick."

Booth left and Bones dressed and met him for coffee and the ride to the pit in Revere.

After working for four hours in the pit Bones slowly stood up.

"This is a female and a male. The female is late twenties to early thirties. She Caucasian, and was pregnant when killed, she has a GSW{Gun Shot Wound} to the back of her head, small-caliber maybe a 23, or 32. The second in male about nine to ten, also Caucasian, also a GSW to the back of the head. They have been dead about fifty plus years. I'll send samples of the earth back with the bones to the Jeffersonian. Hodgins can tell if they were killed here or moved here. Booth I'm done here, is this all for the day in Boston or can we go home?"

"We have one more site down in Plymouth, you know the home of the Pilgrims. The first Europeans people to come to the USA."

" You are almost right the Pilgrims, were the established as the first sustainable colony. But The French were in northern New England, and Vikings are a report to have been to the new world before the Pilgrims. "

"Ó Stop Bones a history lesson from you will take a day and a half so let go eat and then bed and rest."

"Am I sleeping in, or due we need to leave at the crack of dawn?"They are planning to leave at 9am, not at the crack of down Bones, can you be ready by then, Ó Queen of the Forensic Anthropologists"

"Syntax is wrong but you are correct,"

"Sorry Queen of the New York Times best seller, Dr. Temperance Brennan.

"Booth I don't know is that is compliment or an insult. It a back-handed compliment, just go with it please. The ride to Plymouth is about an hour, we go down Rt. 3 then on to 44 about a mile. Then."

Stop Booth I'll just watch the side of the road, or nap I'm not sleeping well away from home."

Outside the hotel the re-entered their Armored SUV for Plymouth.

The ride ended off a dirt road off a place called "Big Sandy". A walk of about 100 yards brought them to sandy hilly mound of earth.

"Baby Cakes, the cadaver, dog has indicated there is a body or two below a spot ten yards beyond."

"Well let's get started digging. As soon as they find bones I'll take over the digging ."

A little over an hour the dig leader notified her they found a skull.

Bones went down into the hole they Excavate with tiny shovels, some as small as a , as a table-spoon , and a brush that looked like a shoes brush.

Softly with care the skull was complete expose. An other two hours the complete Skelton revealed.

Booth it will be an other hour for complete exposed we need lights down here now. Also a coroners truck if one is not here yet, Booth I need coffee as soon as you can get it."

"Ok Bones I'll get right on it. When I get the coffee you take a break, deal?"

"Deal just go fast."

{She needed the pill for the pain,because all her personal things were up above. Bones was in pain she almost could not stand straight, when she did the pain made her want to cry and it was getting worse.}

Booth returned in a half hour with an other "Cup of JOE".

Crawling up the ladder Bones had the biggest bogus smile she had all day.

"Booth I love you, I mean the coffee. The body in the hole is a male about fifty years old, he is also a GSW to the back of the head. Booth he had handcuff on. His skull is in good shape so Angela can get the facial resolution."

As she started drinking her second cut of coffee, The Box of Joe Exploded. Everyone turned to see what happened to the coffee. Booth felt a sudden pressure on his side.

"Are you all right Bones?"

"NO Booth I think I'm about to expire."

With that she dropped to the ground. The sound of a rifle is heard

"Medic over here officer ,down officer down . Get me a Medic Vac here now, this place is a crime scenic no body moves."

Booth dropped to his knees and opens Bones jacket, all he can see is blood. He,s pushed aside like paperweight by the biggest EMT has ever saw.

"Who are you."

" I'm an Army doctor so get the hell out of my way and let me try to save this woman, she dying now so move.
