Booth

Why can't we even get a half hour to help us deal without something else. I am mad enough to kill Sully and Kenton. They are dumb enough to go after us but really to go after the entire team and their families? What the hell is the point?

It was up to me to keep them all safe and with another fucking boat heading straight for us I did not know what else to do. I demanded that everyone get into dive gear and get away from the boat. I couldn't leave the boat empty so I had to have Chris and Carrie stay behind. I only hoped that they would make it out.

Once I had gotten the team far enough away from the boat I surfaced and pulled them all up around me We watched as Chris wrestled with someone from the mystery boat and then I saw the muzzle flashes. A minute later I saw the boat go up in flames. Hopefully Chris and Carrie were able to get into the water okay.

"Booth?" I heard Angela call her voice shaking.

"Did someone jump in or fall in?" I asked to no one in particular.

"I don't know." I heard Bones whisper.

Before I could help myself I cursed, "Dammit!"

"You are going back to find out aren't you?" Bones asked even though she already knew the answer.

"Hodgins you stay here with them. If I am not back in twenty you start swimming to shore and call Cullen. Don't let anyone see you!" I barked to him. He was the only experienced person in the water besides Bones and I knew she would not be able to leave me behind if she needed to.

I unclipped myself from the rope and started to swim away when Bones grabbed my arm and pulled me back towards her. I saw the fear in her eyes and just wanted to pull her close and hold her. I had to go see if Chris and Carrie were okay and she knew that. I looked her in the eye as I had many times before. We both knew that this could very well be the last time we saw each other. I squeezed her hand and swam off.

It took me about ten minutes to get back to the boat. As I swam up Chris swam over to me. He was holding his arm, which was bleeding heavily. He saw me looking at it, "Flesh wound. I'm fine."

"Where is Carrie?" I asked ripping my t-shirt and tying it around his arm.

"She jumped in before me. That is why Sully started shooting."

"It was him? He was here?"

"Ya. He started shooting at Carrie. I don't know if he hit her or not."

"Did you get him?" he had to have gotten him. If he did it would be one less person after us.

"Hit yes but he took off in the other boat." Chris said as we heard the boat start to tick…it was going to blow.

"Swim fast and deep." I said popping the regulator back in my mouth and pulling Chris with me.

I felt the compression from the explosion under the water. Four explosions actually, three from air tanks and one final one from the gas tank on the boat blowing.

I passed my regulator to Chris for him to take a breath and I continued to pull him away from the explosion. Once all the tanks had blown we resurfaced and started looking for Carrie.

We found her unconscious but still alive and it didn't appear that she had been shot. I clipped them both too me and started swimming back towards where I had left the team.

Twenty minutes. I told them to go after twenty minutes. How much time had passed? Please let them still be there I thought over and over as I swam pulling Carrie and half pulling Chris.

When we got to where I thought I left them and didn't find them my heart sank. "Are you sure they were here?" Chris asked.

"It has to be close." I said.

Chris pulled out a flashlight from his dive jacket and started flashing it while we looked around. About a hundred yards away we saw a light flash a return to us. They were still there! We started kicking hard and swimming towards them as they swam towards us.

Bones

Twenty-four minutes and thirty-seven seconds. Hodgins told me we needed to start swimming. I told him we needed to wait. That Booth wouldn't leave me. That he would be back and he was. I screamed when I saw him flashing his light across the ocean and started swimming towards him, of course I was pulling four other people and was not swimming very fast until they figured out why I was yelling and swimming.

I threw myself at him when we finally met up. He was okay. He didn't leave. It took me a couple seconds before I realized that Carrie was unconscious and that Chris had been shot. "Did you get him?" I asked Booth and Chris.

"I hit him in the abdomen but he sped off in the boat so I don't know if he is still alive or not." Chris answered.

"Booth how are we suppose to get back on the cruise ship now?" Cam asked.

"We need to make sure Carrie is okay and need to get Chris' arm stitched up." Hodgins said.

"We need to get to shore and call Cullen." Booth said clipping us all back together. We were about a mile from the shore and had two people who were unable to swim on their own.

"Should we split up?" Hodgins asked.

"No!" Booth and I both said at the same time. "We are all getting tired and need to stay together." He said forcefully.

"Will we see the cruise ship? Couldn't we just swim up to it?" Angela asked.

"It does not know we are not in a boat. We have to call Cullen so unless someone has a radio we need to swim to shore." Booth answered.

"I have radio." Carrie mumbled drawing all our attention at her.

I felt around her dive vest and pulled out the small radio and handed it to Booth.

"Squint Squad 12" Booth said into the radio.

"What the hell did you do to the boat?" I heard Cullen's response.

"Number Two brought in some action." He said.

"Any fish?"

"Two."

"Meet as planned?"

"Up to you."

"Radio when you see lights. Should be in a Full House."

"What the hell kind of conversation is that?" Sweets asked smiling.

"We don't know who is listening." Booth said shrugging his shoulders.

"We are just suppose to float here for a half hour?" I asked leaning back in the water.

"Yes and then swim up to the cruise ship and climb in." He answered me.

"I feel like a prune." Angela said.

"Ya it will take all day tomorrow to dry out." Cam said laughing.

We saw the lights from the cruise ship not too long after. As we were swimming to the ship I felt Chris get heavier on the rope. I turned around and saw that he had his eyes closed and was just floating on the end of the rope.

"Booth. Chris." I yelled up to the front of our line. He unclipped and swam back towards us. "He has lost a lot of blood. We need to get him out of the water and hydrated or else he will go into shock."

"Bones can you take him?" Booth asked me.

"Ya but we need to hurry." I said as I clipped Chris directly to my back and started swimming.

We were lifting Chris and Carrie up into the cruise ship and climbing in behind at a little after one in the morning. Cullen led us directly to the sick bay on the bottom level. "No weapons on board. Three people were arrested trying to get on board without having boarding cards."

"Sir do you know what happened to Sully?" Booth asked.

"We found the boat, we did not find him."

"So basically we were in the ocean with out day ruined and he still got away?" Cam said.

"It gets better." Cullen said.

"Huh?" Sweets asked.

"Your rooms have been trashed. That means you cant go back to them."

"So we are suppose to stay here in our soaking wet clothes?" Angela asked getting upset.

"No. We had your rooms packed up and moved them to five different locations switching bags each time. You will be in two rooms now instead of four. Bed assignments are up to you but that is all we have for now until we figure out who trashed your stuff."

"Just tell us where we need to go." Booth said.

"M131 and M133" Cullen responded.

"Two twin beds or one king for three people." Cam said.

"Easy. Booth and Bren in one bed Sweets in the other. Me and Jack in one and Cam in the other."

"That okay with everyone?" I asked. They all nodded and we walked off.

I heard Cullen mumble, "well that went better than I thought it would."
