Here is Chapter 10, it's just a bit of a continuation of Chapter 9.
Enjoy.
Temperance stared out of the window in her thoughts as Booth gave background on what the case was about. She felt confused and tired as everything passed by. She was completely disregarding her surroundings.
Booth finished talking and turned to his partner. He looked at her worriedly. He felt that six weeks away from work to recover wasn't enough. During that time he had not served her justice in finding her shooter. I'm sorry, Bones.
He felt guilty everyday.
"Bones, you okay?" he asked.
She snapped out of her daze and stared forward. "I'm fine. What were you saying?"
"Are you sure? I am worried."
"Yes, Booth. I am positive. So what is this case about?"
"…Okay. Some college students, they were partying in the woods. A couple they stray off for a little privacy and they end up stumbling upon the body. Probably another college student."
"Why a college student?"
"Because that area of the woods, always packed with them. More than likely its one of them." Booth continued talking.
Temperance suddenly felt a chill. She rubbed her arms and looked in the mirror. Tilting it she saw a blonde girl in a George Washington University sweater and cross pendant around her neck sitting in the back seat.
The girl opened her mouth to talk but no sound came out. Temperance stared intently, making sure she wasn't just seeing things.
Suddenly blood splattered again the window from the blonde girl. Each second Temperance saw more blood splatter everywhere. She quickly turned around to the back seat.
"Bones you okay?!" Booth asked alert.
Temperance scanned the back seats and saw no one there. No blood. Again she felt confused and her head began to ache. Slowly she moved herself back properly into her seat, sitting in a dazed state. "Nothing. Yeah. I am fine," she answered slowly. I am only seeing things. None of this is real.
"Where is the body?" Temperance asked the police officer as she walked up to the tape.
The police officer lifted the tape for her to walk under and pointed, "Down this hill and between the two marked trees."
Temperance quickly said thanks and walked in the direction the officer gave. Once she saw Zack taking pictures she walked up to him and placed her back on the ground.
"Have you taken a look at the body?" she asked him.
Zack looked up from the camera, "No, the honor is all yours Dr. Brennan."
She kneeled down and brushed off stray leaves and stared in horror. The victim: blonde hair, George Washington University sweater, and a cross pendant.
She felt her head spinning and felt the bile come up to her throat. She held her hand over her mouth and ran to the clearing. She ignored Zack's calls and kept running. Finally, she stopped far enough and threw up.
Why was that the girl in the car? Why? How did I?
