Just a short chapter to hold you over for a little while!! Enjoy!! Bones belongs to FOX

Booth was in his car driving to the dealership. He had his sirens on, and was driving like a maniac. He had to save his Bones. He needed to have her with him.

Booth was not only scared for Bones, but for himself. He knew he would never forgive himself if something bad happened to her.

He had finally arrived at the car dealership. He quickly ran to the back, and put on a vest. He was equipped with 4 guns among his body; he was prepared to win.

Booth ran to the back, and broke in. He had no backup.

Bones was scared to death. She knew that the FBI wouldn't make a deal, she knew that she had no choice but to give her life. At least she got to kiss Booth. She was still mad at herself for running out on him; she didn't want to die without him knowing she loved him.

"Now listen sweetheart," Bernie said holding her up by her hair, "I need to be assured that you can make me a deal with the FBI. You see, I am a free spirited man, and I can't be in jail. You understand?"

"Criminals like you belong in jail, and I will do anything to make that possible." Bones yelled.

"Even die?" Bernie asked.

Booth was inside the place, and he could hear the man speaking. He recognized the voice as the man he was talking to earlier at the dinner party.

Brennan spoke, "I don't care."

Booth heard Brennan. HE was overjoyed. She was here! She was alive! Now, he could only hope that she was well. Booth got out his gun, and crawled to where the room was. He spotted 3 people. Luckily, only two bad guys. He had a clear shot of one guy, but the other guy was holding Bones by the hair, and that shot was too risky from his position. He saw all the blood, and hoped it wasn't all from Bones. He saw Bones' face covered in blood. Her legs were scraped and she looked injured badly.

Booth decided it was now or never, he took his shot. He hit Bernie's friend. He was dead.

Once Bernie heard the shot, he ducked. When he saw the shot his friend, he grabbed Bones.

Booth was shifting his position, but since Bernie had Bones, he couldn't get his shot.

Bernie was standing against a wall, with Bones in front of him. He held her in a head lock, and had a gun pointed to her head. Booth came out of hiding, and was facing Bernie and Bones. Booth was holding his gun up to Bernie, and Bernie had his gun up to Bones.

"Put her down." Booth instructed sternly.

"Not a chance. I want a deal."

"I told you the FBI doesn't make deals." Bones spoke up with fear in her voice.

"Will you please tell you girlfriend to shut up? I can't stand her! She has been annoying me and my dead buddy all night." Bernie complained.

"Just put her down and we can discuss this."

"That's not going to happen, she is mine."

"If you don't put her down, I will shoot you."

"Yeah right. You can't have that great of a shot. You have the chance of hitting her. I just want a deal." Bernie began to explain. "If I let her go, will you let me go free?"

Bones spoke up again, "No way in hell. You are going to jail."

Bernie tightened his grip on Bones. "That's it, I can't stand her anymore." He cocked the gun. "You got one last chance."

Booth looked at Bones. She knew what he wanted to do. Bones ducked her head away from Bernie, and a shot was fired.
