Anger.

Sweets drove towards the Jeffersonian with Gordon in the car listening intently as Sweets explained what little they knew about Brennan's disappearance. Gordon frowned in thought as Sweets finsihed his story.

"So, we have no idea where Dr Brennan maybe." Gordon stated.

"None at all." Sweets was frustrated.

"How are the team coping with this?" Gordon knew he was only supposed to have met Booth but he had quickly made friends with Dr Brennan and the rest of what Booth called the Squint Squad.

"Angela is worried sick, which in her condition is not a good thing. Cam is very quiet, Daisy is heartbroken and well Hodgins is angry." Sweets killed the engine as he spoke. Gordon nodded. He had expected the team to react that way.

"I presume Mr Nigel Murray is as joyful as ever."

"He thinks she's dead." Sweets hit the steering wheel. "Wendell hasn't spoken to him since he said that. And you can imagine how Booth took that."

"Yes." Gordon shook his head as he pictured how the FBI agent would be reacting to the news. "Has anyone spoken to her father? Her brother?"

"Booth is with Max now." Sweets sighed.

"And has anyone clarified the relationship between Dr Brennan and Agent Booth?"

"Look." Sweets paused. "I don't think anyone can clarify it. There was a time when I was convinced they were either together and not telling anyone or about to get together. It's obvious he's in love with her you know? But then they both left for a while and there was Hannah and they didn't speak for a while."

"They are on speaking terms now? When they came to the resteraunt" Gordon began as they left the car and began walking towards the lab.

"Yes. I think things went back to square 1. Hannah left and they seemed on slightly better terms." Sweets swiped his pass as Cam walked towards them.

"Sweets. Hi Gordon." She smiled slightly.

"Dr Saroyan." Gordon smiled. "Any news on the errant scientist?"

"News? No well not really. Booth is in my office." She looked over her shoulder.

"And?" Gordon watched as the pathologist shrugged her shoulders and stared at the floor.

"And he's in a bad place right now. He doesn't work without her. I was a cop for too long. You know as well as I do, the longer someone is missing the more chance there is we are looking for a body."

"Don't say that." Angela almost whispered. "Brennan is ok. We'll find her. She's ok."

"Ange." Hodgins looked up as she walked away. Cam sighed.

"We're all in a bad place right now. Talk to him, please Gordon. Just talk to him." Cam went back to her work station as the englishman nodded.

Brennan was cold. She had never been so cold in her life. The pain in her back seemed to sear right through her into her abdomen as she tried and failed to work out where she was. The man that had been sat in the room with her was gone. She fought to keep her eyes open, knowing that she was only barely alive. Hypothermia was beginning to set in. Brennan knew if she didn't move, if she didn't generate some body heat at some point soon she was going to die.

"Find me Booth." She thought. "Please just find me."

It was then the anger warmed her soul. She had too much to live for to die on a cold concrete floor in a place she didn't even know. She wanted to die an old lady with friends and family around who cared for her. She was not going to die here. Not today. She pushed herself back into a sitting positon as she wondered how on earth she was going to get back to the Jeffersonian. To Booth.

"Booth." Gordon watched as his former patient glared.

"It's because of Max."

"She was abducted because of her father?" Gordon watched. "You know this for certain."

"Yes."

"How?"

"Gordon he told me. Twenty years ago or more he double crossed a drug dealer. The guy got twenty years in prison. Now he wants revenge." Booth pulled at his tie as Gordon nodded.

"Revenge against Max. At least we have a motive now." He watched as Booth glared. "But what surprises me most."

"What?"

"Agent Booth what surprises me most is that you are stood here in Dr Saroyan's office feeling sorry for yourself when you should be out there fighting to get her back."

"How can you say that?"

"I am only saying what you already know. Max is a criminal. He always has been. The sins of the father are now being revisited on the child. We find this drug dealer and we may find her. Angela is working on the security camera footage. Dr Hodgins is looking into the police reports, Daisy and Dr Hodgins are working on trace evidence found at the scene. Booth as my ten year old nephew would say. Grow a set!"

"Gordon!"

"You know I am right."

Booth glared for a moment before nodding. He pushed himself away from Cam's desk. For a moment Gordon was concerned the younger man would take his anger out on the wrong person. Booth closed his eyes.

"What if she's dead? What if Nigel Murray is right?"

"For an intelligent man he is an idiot." Gordon smiled. "With border line personality disorder. Temperance Brennan is not dead until we see the evidence for ourselves. I wont give up on her. I am surprised you are."

"Never." He walked out the office. "Never."

A/N Thanks for the reviews, please let me know what you think. More Brennan next time.
