9:00am Friday Morning/Temperance's Apartment:

Brennan is still laid out on her bed. She was very much out of it. Between being exhausted from work and having the fright of her life not even a bomb could have woken her up. Her team at the lab worry about were she is and why no one has spoken to her. Booth comes to the lab to check on their progress and notices Brennan isn't there.

"Hey where's Bones?"

(Ange)"Booth right now your guess is as good as ours."

"What? You mean she's not here?"

"No one has seen her all morning Booth. I don't think she's even here. I didn't see her car this morning in the parking lot."

"I'm going to go over to her apartment and check on her. It's not like her to sleep-in."

The whole time Booth was driving himself to her place he could feel sweat going down his forehead. He had about a 100 different scenerios going across his mind and was trying so hard to hold his feelings until he actually found what happened. When he did reach her apartment his heartbeat shot up because he pounded on her door, but there was no answer. After about a minute Booth lost all control. He kicked her door open and began shouting her name...still no answer.

"Bones, Bones don't scare me! TEMPERANCE WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU?"

Booth began searching the rooms and finally found her laying on her bed. She was still very much out of it. The first thought that came to his mind was...NO She can't be dead. He realized though she was breathing. She looked has if someone had given her sleeping pills. A heavy dose of sleeping pills. Booth sat her up and tried to wake her up. After a few moments she started to open her eyes but she was still half asleep.

"Hey, Hey Bones you ok?"

(mumbling)"Booth, Booth is that you?"

"Yeah it's ok It's me I'm here"

(more awake)"What are you doing here? What time is it?"

"It's after 9:00. I came to see if you were alright when nobody saw you at work well...I really don't want to finish that sentence. What's that you're holding?"

She was holding the awful, chilling note that put her in the state that she was currently in. He read the note and...

"Bones, come on don't fall asleep on me again. What happened last night? Come on Tempe talk to me!"

She kept dozing off from being so sleepy. Booth had to do something to get her awake and keep her awake. Hey yells:

"Hey Bones I'll let you have a gun if you wake up"

"Really?"

"No"

"What? That's Mean!"

"Hey it got you woke up didn't? What happened last night? Where did this note come from?"

She started to have instant flashbacks and began to remember what happened.

"I started to go to bed and I saw something coming at me. I sat up and noticed someone in the window. It was the Ripper guy. I acted like was going to hit him and I guess it scared him off and then I found the note. I take it you read it."

"Yeah, he knows who you are, but how?"

"I wish I knew. I read the note and then I guess I collapsed on my bed"

"Are you able to come to work? I think we need to let your team know what happened."

"Sure just gives me a few minutes to clean-up"

"Fine, but no more sleepy or ok?"

"Sure"

"Bones I mean it"

"Really I'll stay awake"

Booth took her to the lab. The team was so relieved to see her ok.

"Sweetie, you don't know how worried we all were"

"If it's anything like Booth worrying then I can imagine. I need you guys to trace the blood on this note. The blood is real human blood but I need to know whose it is."

(Zack)"I'll get to work on it right away"

Booth and Brennan continue to discuss the case in her office. The rest of the team are in the lab analizying the blood on the note and within a few hours they have the results.

(Zack)"Excuse Dr. Brennan we have the results from the blood"

"So who is it?"

"Jessica Daber, who is also the body we found at Washington Square. She's 30 years old, blonde hair, hazel eyes and had traces of AIDS within her."

(Booth)"What a sick bstrd""

"Booth that isn't going to help"

"Oh I almost forgot Jessica Daber was Brian Haysley's ex-girlfriend from 2001. We were able to contact her parents to get some questions and they said she dumped him after she found he had passed AIDS onto her."

"Thank you Zack"

"Booth I don't know how much longer I'll be able to wait to find this guy. I'm going to go through his pictures again and see if I can find any other clues."

Brennan upload the photos onto her computer and kept searching for a clue that could help them identify him faster. Sure enough their was one thing in common with all of his identities. Along his neck was a very light mark. The mark was slash-like and almost unoticeable.

"Marks like that can't be removed in surgery" she says to herself.

The time now is 7:30pm. Booth occasionally comes in and visits her to see what she has found out. For now however she decides to take a small break. Brennan leans back in her chair and just thinks to herself. Angelia walks in to see how she's holding up.

"Are you gonna be okay honey?"

"What? Oh I guess I've just got a lot of my mind"

"Did you ever call Peter back?"

"Oh Ange, I can't. I've got too much work to do and with wacko out there following me everywhere the last thing I want to do is put Peter or anybody in danger."

"He's a guy! If he really cares about you then he won't let anything bad happen to you. You've been through so much all week it would feel nice to just sit down and have a civilized conversation with someone outside of work. SO PICK UP THAT PHONE AND START DIALIN' SISTER!"

Brennan really doesn't feel like socializing with her being involved with such a big case, however she feels that her last date with Peter didn't quite go as planned so she kind of owes him. She picks up her phone and dials his number. He's not home unfortunately, but she still leaves a message saying she's coming for a visit tommorow night. With that Brennan finds Booth and asks if he could take her home. Naturally he does, but he asks that she tommorow at least wake up on time and try not to have such a dramatic night.

"I'll try Booth" is her reply.
