Yay! We're back! Sorry for the delay. My internet was working, but hey! It's summer and I can't spend all my time on here, as much as I want to write all the time, I can't. I finished the chapter last night but forgot to post. Here's chapter 6! Enjoy!


Chapter 6

Booth walked into Brennan's office one minute after she had told Sully. Booth didn't know.

"I can't believe it! Oh my god! Ah!" Sully yelled, cursing under his breath.

"Sorry about your brother." Booth said from behind Sully. Booth thought that Sully was upset because of John. He was. But that's not what he was cursing about.

Sully turned around when Booth came in and Sully stormed out of the room with the evil look on his face.

"I can't believe he's so upset." Brennan said sitting down on her couch.

"It's his brother, Bones. Have some empathy for the guy." Booth told Brennan.

"That's not what we were discussing, Booth. I told him about us. He's really mad."

"I said I would handle it."

"He kept asking, though."

"So? What now?"

"Wear protection, and get ready to get kicked in the gut. That's your only option."

"Thanks for the enthusiasm, Bones." Booth said sarcastically.

"There was no enthusiasm in my statement, Booth." Bones looked confused.

"Never mind. We got John's wife's address and we have to go and tell her."

Booth and Brennan went to the wife's house to tell her about her husband.

…Wife's House…

The outside of the house was an off white. It had two floors not including a possible attic and basement.

The door was glass.

The inside of the house had tile floors throughout the kitchen and dining room. The only room on the bottom floor with carpet was the living room.

In the living room, the carpet was a fine white along with the white leather couches. The two couches were facing each other with coffee table in between them.

In each corner of the room were small tables.

There was an in ground pool in the back yard.

"Mrs. Sullivan? Are you home? It's the FBI." Booth said.

Just then Mrs. Sullivan walked up behind them from outside holding groceries, and spoke. "Can I help you with something?" Booth and Brennan jumped.

"We have to speak to you about your husband."

"Come in."

Mrs. Sullivan set her bags on the kitchen counter and led the two over to the couch. Bren and Booth sat on one couch and Mrs. Sullivan sat on the other couch across from them.

"He's in jail. I can tell. Drugs. I warned him that this would happen." Mrs. Sullivan said like she understood.

"Actually, no. John Sullivan was killed, we are very sorry for your loss." Brennan said sincerely.

Mrs. Sullivan's eyes started to water. And then she started balling and said, "No! No! It must be a mistake! Please! Not John! Not my John!"

"Now, we need to ask you some questions, do you think you can handle that?" Mrs. Sullivan nodded.

"Do you know who Ally Reid is?" Booth asked.

"Ally? Yes. That's my daughter. Did you find her? Is she okay?"

"She's dead. It's been more than 24 hours, and your daughter is fifteen, why didn't you call the police?" Brennan asked.

"She was going camping for the rest of the week with John. John is not Ally's father. Ally is—was John's step-daughter. They loved each other, really did, but because of Ally's biological father, it was hard for her to have John be in Ally's father's place, so they decided to have some time alone. I didn't like the idea of them going camping, but Ally thought that it was a good idea, and I didn't want to spoil what she wanted to do, she was excited, so I went along with it. I shouldn't have."

"His brother is pretty upset about John, too. We're more than sorry."

"Thank you so very much."

"We should go, hope you feel better."

With that the two left. They would've asked to look around but they noticed how upset that Mrs. Sullivan looked.

…At the Lab…

"How's everything going around here?" Brennan asked when she arrived at the lab.

"Some FBI agents found some clothing near the second victim. It was soggy." Cam said.

"Can I see it?"

"Of course." Cam went to get the clothing from her office.

When Cam arrived back with the clothing, Dr. Brennan examined it.

"Cam, its wet, which means, Ally was in water when or before she died."

"I'm sure there must be a lake or something nearby."

Brennan could smell the water, and it wasn't ordinary. "Cam, it wasn't a lake, this is chlorine."

"So, how are we supposed to find out where she was?"

"Her mother has a pool…"


Dun dun duuun! Don't worry. It's not almost over.

Thanks for everyone who's been with us from chapter 1 to now!

Keep reviews coming.

READ THIS A/N: I also would like to say, I'm trying for another one of the genres Bones is famous for, humor. Tell me if I have as much humor as they have. I'm not that funny, but I'm trying.

THANK ALL OF YOU FOR READING!
