Okay so
another chapter :)
I don't think anything interesting will
happen but yeh.
Please do Review as it honestly fuels my
writing!
Oh and Spoilers for the episode Two Bodies In the Lab
(Personal Favourite of all the episodes) so if you don't wanna know
down read it! :)
His
eyes shot open and he groaned as his sudden movement caused pain to
rocket though him, he has snoozed off again only to be awoken by his
chin hitting his chest. This had been the third his attempts to sleep
were in vain.
He inhaled deeply and let out a troubled sigh,
turning his aching head towards a still form slumped lazily against
him; it was Bones, who had fallen asleep against his shoulder.
He
smiled slightly at how her face looked so relaxed and care free,
slightly jealous he had allowed her to sleep and not himself, he
forced himself to stay awake in case any of the crooks decided to
repay them a visit, so far there had been nothing but silence above
since Epps had left.
In fact everything had gone silent
since Epps had left and that must have been at least two hours ago.
They had had a bottle of water to drink each, and then Booth insisted
Bones to sleep, after all it had been a long day.
Booth however
was now wide awake his mind ticking like mad on what Epps had told
them.
"I
am sadly just a mere, how could I put it – Mail man"", "Taren
Jenkins, Agent Booth that's who", "after hearing what he's
got in store for you I doubt you'll remain here for long."All
of Epps words were merging together in booths mind as he tried to
make sense of how this criminal Taren Jenkins had even got time to
reach communication with Epps at all. He had personally handed him to
the Sherriff and watched the pair drive off.
All his thinking
brought back the severe pain in his head, so he stopped, lay his head
back against the wall with his eyes open waiting for a sound.
The
first feelings that stuck her as she woke from her sleepy haze was
the pain in her head, the bitter cold against her skin and the low
groaning sound, somewhere close to her.
Her eyes fought against
her as she tried to open them, but eventually they obeyed and she
remembered she was still trapped in that concrete room.
Her brow
knitted together as she slowly eased her head off of the mass she has
been leant on, and she soon realised what the sound was, her partner
and her best friend had also alike her fallen asleep, and was snoring
louder than an ox.
She couldn't help but feel slightly more
relived that he was still there with her, no matter how noisy he
was.
She pondered on whether to wake him or not, but then decided
to as she didn't think he would want her to be awake without him.
She got onto her knees and scooted around to the other side of
him, mindful of his injured leg and lowered her face to his, and
gently took hold of his shoulder shaking it slightly.
"Booth?"...
There was no response so she spoke a little louder and increased the
force she put into shaking his shoulder
"Booth? Booth?" Still
there was no response his snoring persisted and so she decided to
simply shout and shake his whole frame
"BOOTH!?"
His Eyes
shot open once again and he leapt almost a full foot from the floor,
regretting it immediately. His body thumped back onto the ground with
a huff escaping from his lips and Bones, Taken back by his surprise,
lay rested on her elbows lying back her face shocked.
"Geeze
Bones! What was that all about! You 'bout gave me a heart attack!"
His face scrunched into a pained expression and he looked over to his
bewildered partner half lying back on the floor.
"Well I thought
I should wake you up.." she dusted herself off a little as she sat
back up her tone slightly defensive.
"Yeah Bones I get that I'm
wide awake, trust me." He said lowering his town as he looked down
to his knee seeing the swelling certainly hadn't gone down and the
pain pulsating from it caused him to pull his face even more,
something Bones Picked up on immediately.
"Isn't the pain any better?"she asked knowing the answer and feeling bad for causing him to jolt it and cause more unnecessary pain.
"Nah Bones," He lied "It's alright, how's that head of yours?"Looking back up into her unusually dull eyes.
"It's
Alright, it seems the bleedings completely stopp..." She stopped
abruptly mid sentence seeing that booth wasn't listening at all;
instead his attention diverted somewhere high above her left
shoulder.
Turning on her knees she looked for the source of booths
attention and realised what had caught it.
There in the far corner
of the room was a round, barely visible, plastic half sphere – she
recognised it as the casing for the security cameras used in the
Jeffersonian.
"Were Being Watched" Booths already low voiced
had dropped into an almost growl.
"I don't get it,
surly they can just ask for the money and give them and I owe you
note or something?" Angela's voice was sadder than usual and
almost desperate.
"It's not that simple, whoever has them
wants what $50,000 just to let us watch them on a screen, it's not
happening Ange, as much as I want it to, with the FBI a No's a No."
Cam Seemed just as down she was sat in the same room as before and
the other woman was stood leaning on a nearby desk.
"Well Why
the hell not don't they see it's the only way we've got to see
if there still alive!"
The Older woman got up from the seat and
embraced the now sobbing woman into a unusual warm hug, She was just
as agitated but showed her emotions less.
The pair had been
hugging for almost a minute until the blonde bearded man ran into the
room, his attitude the total opposite.
"I got the money!" his
voice gave off a pang on ecstatic energy
the two women broke apart
their faces similar, just one with more smudged then the
others
"what!?" it came out both their mouths at once.
"Don't
ask me how but I've got it, it shouldn't take long to go through,
you wanna do it?"
Angela's face lit up as she squealed a
confirmative "yes."
The trio all grouped at the computer as
the man entered a series of six Numbers into a box on the screen and
clicked the 'Enter' Button.
The group held their breaths
unconsciously and waited for the screen of the camera to reappear, so
far nothing had happened.
"Why isn't anything happening!?"
Angela was bursting by now; it hadn't been even a minute.
"Wait
Ange, something's got to happen." The man's Voice was
hopeful.
Still Nothing happened and the small groups whole demine
was changing from hope, to despair.
Finally the screen
flicked into life, but not with the hoped streaming video of their
much loved colleagues; instead it was a lone male, in what looked to
be a car. The Man Began to speak never looking into the camera
directly;
"I Thank you for the funds I have just received",
the males voice was low Angela leaned closer and hit a couple of keys
on the keyboard, "However the previous message I sent was true and
seeing your friends on the camera is all it will achieve, for now.
Goodbye 'Squints'" On the last word the male figure spoke
sarcastically and he raised his hands and hyphenated it with his
first and index fingers.
The screen flickered off and back on
again – this time to the image of a man and woman slouched against
each other, the movement of their mouths barely visible. Their
Friends Were Okay.
The three had all let out the breaths they had
been holding but still the man known as, Hodgins seemed
confused.
"What Do you think he meant 'For Now'" he
questioned.
"Jack I really couldn't care at this moment in
time he just made a big mistake! He let us see where he was
heading!" she laughed triumphantly, tapped a few keys again and on
another screen across the room the image of the man reappeared and
she began to work her magic.
"Where do you think it's
going to?" Bones voice was shakier than before, the cold was
getting too her.
"Honestly Bones, Knowing this guy it's being
broadcasted to every damn TV in Washington, seems he knows everyone."
He turned to her seeing the reaction on her face – there wasn't
much of one though.
Booth once again readjusted his aching body.
His knee was causing him agony and he winced as it moved only the
tiniest bit, he hadn't been conscious too see what state the car
was, causing his injury, but he guessed he'd be needing a new one,
if he ever got out of this damn room.
"Well." The simple
statement made booths lips curve up to one side and he let out
another deep breath, Bones sure knew how to lift somebody's
spirits, especially Booths.
"Well." Booth Replied in a jokey
way. "What a pair eh?"
This In turn made Bones smile alike how
Booth just had, she remembered it as something she had said to booth
the night at the hospital he had been blown up, and she had nearly
been killed and then eaten by Rottweiler's, until booth came to
save her.
As she hadn't replied, only smiled Booth, decided to
keep talking.
"Ahh, Its always us isn't it eh" Booth scoffed
at this knowing most people he knew would agree with him.
"Blown
Up, Shot , Attacked, Buried Alive, Kidnapped, blown up again, pounded
by a four tonne wrestler, framed, and now Crashed into, kidnapped and
left to rot by a suspect with a grudge. Geeze I don't think many
other two people have a list like that eh?" The words came out
emotionless.
Bones nodded at each incident Booth rattled off, each
time remembering parts of it, mainly the bad parts. They had been
though a lot. But somehow in the back of her mind she was glad she
had Booth there with her at every even, no matter how selfish it
might of seemed.
The silence returned.
But not for long.
TBC .. Ahah I love doing this, sorry nothing really happened and yeah hopefully another instalment within the next 2 days :) Reviews Greatly welcomed xx
