Okay my faithful viewers…finally, it has come. Booth and Brennan will finally meet! I keep writing either Temperance or Brennan, and frankly… it's just weird… So now, they'll be together! YAY! And of course, I own nothing. Don't sue me.
Angela's heart skipped a beat. A boat! What luck! It had to be that wooden dinky arrowhead that Brennan was wearing! It really does brings luck! She laughed, not daring to take her eyes off of it. They were going home!
The boat was about a mile away and it bobbed up and down in the crystal blue ocean a couple feet away from the shore. They started to run after the boat along the beach, kicking up sand in their tracks. Brennan slowed up a bit and grabbed Angela's hand before she started to shout. Something didn't seem right to her.
"Hold on." She said.
Angela looked at her friend confused, then back at the boat.
Brennan quickly collected the group and ushered them to the woodline before they started to celebrate and scream out for help. They crouched down behind some bushes and watched the people land the yacht as close to the shore as possible and saw a man jump off the side with a rifle slung across his back. They looked like they were fishermen, but…fishermen didn't carry AK-47s.
"Why do they have weapons?" Angela asked in a whisper.
"Most likely pirates. They patrol the Atlantic coast of South America." She explained.
Everyone's shoulder's sagged.
They saw the pirates toss some men off the boat and into the water. They had black bags over their heads and their hands tied behind their backs. They dragged the 5 men through the water and onto the beach. They put up somewhat of a struggle, intending to make the task as hard as possible.
Brennan noticed the bound men wore woodland camouflage and black combat boots. There gear and weapons still on them, she deduced they were obviously soldiers of some kind. They observed one of the pirates yelling and shaking his head at his comrades. It looked as if he didn't want to get off the boat. The scared pirate yelled to the men on the beach in Portuguese, and flipped them off.
"What are they saying?" Angela asked. The other pirate yelled something back and began to drag their prisoners further up on shore.
"He said that this part of Brazil was cursed. He doesn't want to get off the boat." Brennan interpreted. She pushed back a little bit more of the bush to get a better view.
"We're in Brazil!?" Angela harshly whispered, her head snapping up to look at Brennan.
Four of the eleven pirates were brave enough to climb onto the beach. They forced the soldiers on their knees in a straight line. The leader removed the bags over their heads and took out a pistol. He walked over to Booth and stopped in front of him.
"Why are you here?" He said in a strong Brazilian accent, his yellow teeth visible as he sneered.
"Well, me and my buddies just absolutely love your chestnuts…"
The leader punched Booth in the face and knocked him over. The others dragged the sergeant back up to his knees. He glared at the pirate and spat blood on his scuffed shoes.
The pirate leader stood up. "Do any of you wish to tell me why you are here? Perhaps, save your miserable life?"
Trigger piped, "Dude, I gotta whiz."
Manelli shrugged, "If I tell you…will I get to bring back a hot Brazilian babe?"
The leader walked toward the medic fast and kneed him in the chest. He doubled over and groaned.
"Any more wise cracks?" He angrily spat.
Manelli raised his arm, "I think I have one more." He said shakily.
The leader grabbed him by the hair and punched his face, splitting his lip. Manelli spat blood out on the sand and looked back up at him. "God, you're a douche." The leader took the butt of his rifle and slammed it into his neck "Okay...I'm done." He rasped.
The Brazilian pirate smirked and walked over to Hac and Stryker. "What about the quiet ones." He said, lifting Stryker's chin with his pistol. "Anything to say, before I kill you?"
Stryker remained silent. He wasn't a man of many words.
Finally, the leader got bored and tossed his pistol to one of the other pirates. "Shoot 'em, throw their carcasses in the tree's."
The leader began to walk back to his yacht when he heard someone shout. He turned back, and much to his surprise saw an attractive auburn haired woman come running toward him, not stopping even though four AK-47s were pointed at her. She stopped once she was a few feet away from the leader.
"You can't do this." Brennan said, confused. She didn't seem the slightest bit concerned about the rifles. "It's unlawful by the Geneva Convention. You are ordered to-"
Booth and his men took the opportunity to attack while the crazy lady distracted them. Booth leapt up, his hands already freed, and slipped out his knife. He skillfully threw it at the leader who was bringing his weapon up to shoot the civilian. The knife stopped with a sickening thud in his neck. His carotid continued to squirt blood from the fatal wound and he dropped like a sack of...Brazilian chestnuts.
Trigger had jacked one of the pirate's AK-47s and mowed down the rest. The five soldiers slowly finished freeing themselves from the rope, and were brushing all of the sand off of their uniforms. They looked pretty bedraggled, uncomfortable, and pissed off.
All of a sudden another woman came bolting toward them, shouting.
"BRENNAN! WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT! YOU COULD HAVE GOTTEN KILLED!" She yelled and clobbered Brennan with a hug. "Sweetie, you're not bulletproof." She said as she let go, ignoring the confused soldiers.
"I was perfectly capable of-"
"Lady, you're crazy." The sergeant said. "You could have gotten killed."
"Hey, why are you mad at her? She saved your lives." Angela said, with a harsh tone, and then looked back at Brennan.
"It's okay, in all cultures the males want to be more dominant and it throws a biological imbalance if they prove incapable of-" Brennan was interrupted.
"Whoa, whoa, a biological imbalance? I'll tell you whose imbalanced-" Booth started, until Stryker interrupted.
"We should check and see what weapons and supplies are on the bo-" He stopped when he had turned and watched the pirates drive the boat away, bouncing on the waves as it gained speed until it was out of sight. He visibly deflated.
"What's going on? Who are they?"
Everyone turned to see the other four; Ryan, Evelyn, Kate, and Bill join them.
"Hey you bastard's!" Kate started to hop up and down and shout. "GET BACK HERE!"
"Stop. Stop. Stop. Ma`am. St-Stop. STOP!" Manelli shouted, and pushed her arms down roughly, trying to get her attention. "They're definitely not here for us. So cool your jets."
"Excuse me?" She huffed, a few whisps of blonde hair stuck to her face. "Cool… MY jets?" Kate said, hand on hip. "How dare you-"
"Alright just calm down, everybody-just chill-" Manelli said, trying to keep the peace.
"Chill? We're stranded in God knows where, on a damn island-and you want us to chill!" Bill Curtis shouted, pushing Manelli roughly.
"Hey, hey, HEY!" Booth shouted, pushing Curtis back. "I'm warning you! Don't you dare push my medic!" He yelled, getting between the big Texan and Manelli. The Texan lunged at Booth and he swiveled to the side and caught the man in a headlock.
"You son of a bitch!" Curtis howled. He clawed his meaty hands around Booth's arm in a sad attempt to free himself. "Get offa' me!"
Booth let go and backed off. Things were getting out of control! He raised his hands up in an attempt to satisfy the southern boy.
"Don't." He warned, as the Texan looked like he was going to attack again. Bill ran and tackled Booth, making them knock over Kate. She jumped up and yelled. Trigger grabbed her shoulder before she could get into the fight, and she roundhouse kicked him. He fell over on top of Evelyn, Stryker, and Ryan.
All of a sudden it was a fury of pushing and shoving. They continued to yell and wrestle as Angela and Brennan stared at them in disbelief.
"Unbelievable." Angela muttered. She grabbed a pistol from one of the dead pirates and shot it in the air. "Are you morons done?"
Immediately, they stopped and looked at her. After feeling a little foolish, they separated and were all in an uncomfortable silence, with the occasional strained cough. She looked at everybody. They were all tired, stressed, famished, and were all supposed to get along. "Great." Angela muttered. "Now, I know you all are tired and scared-"
"Scared?" Ryan piped up. "Whoever said I was scared?" Again the males agreed with their whole macho role and Angela rolled her eyes.
"But, we need to work together, if we want to get out of here." Angela said to the group. She turned to Booth. " I'm Angela. This is Temperance, that's Ryan, Evelyn, Bill, and Kassi." She said pointing to the names rightful owners.
"It's Kate." Kate said, lethally.
Booth nodded. "I'm Sgt. Booth, That's SPC. Stryker, CPL. Manelli- our medic, CPL. Hac-our weapons specialist, and that's SPC. Trigger-electronics guru." He said, introducing the team.
"How'd you end up here?" Ryan asked, crossing his arms.
"Let's just say, our mission didn't exactly go as planned." Hac drawled with his thick serbian accent. "But we could ask the same. How did you al get here?"
Evelyn's voice wavered. "We..we uh, were on a plane. It crashed in the storm."
Bill Curtis examined his elbow as they spoke. He huffed, and looked at Brennan.
"Heya, doctor lady- I think I cut my elbow…If I just leave it, will I get that green stuff?" The Texan asked, showing her his "cut" elbow.
"That's a scratch, and as I've stated before my degree is not in medicine, it's in forensic science and anthropology." She explained.
"You study bones and stuff?" Trigger asked her, his eyebrows furrowing.
"Yes.-"
"Is this all of the survivors, Bones?" Booth asked, scanning the beach for anybody else.
"yes, Were the only ones- did you just call me Bones?"
Welp, that's it! Her Bones title is officially here! Yay. I bet we were all waiting for that. It might take me a little longer to get this next chapter up, cuz I haven't even started on it so..anyway, review! And thank you all of you who have favorited, or put my story on your alert.
