A/N Sorry guys, I had a busy week and some writer's block, for the life of me I couldn't figure out what turn this story needed to take to keep it plausible…so, after a long car ride it dawned on me, and here we are…
Brennan glanced at Angela, working with her modeling clay, while she unpacked. That clay had come along to serve a much different purpose than putting a face on a random skull, but what can you do? Daisy sat by the fire playing with Michael.
"Where are the guys I wonder?" Daisy remarked, "It's been almost 45 minutes. We're surrounded by woods; it can't be that hard to find some for a fire."
"Well, if Booth wasn't with them, all sorts of things could have gone wrong; but an army ranger wouldn't have let them get lost, caught in a tree, or get crushed by a branch that they couldn't carry." Angela shrugged. "I'm not too worried."
"Booth is like that one person that you don't have to worry when someone is with him." Daisy nodded.
"He shielded Zach from an explosion, saved Hodges…twice now? Saved my life more times than I can count," Bones looked up thoughtfully. "I think we might be able to accurately say that Booth has saved everyone's life at some point."
"With all the serial killers and bombers he's arrested with the FBI and people he took out for the army, that statement could very well be more accurate than we know," Angela stated. "He truly could have saved everyone's life at some point. He's like a superhero, saving the universe."
Just then the men walked in.
"Lancelot!" Daisy cheered, "Where have you been?"
"We got the fires started in the other cabins." Sweets laughed. "we didn't figure you'd want to go back to them cold."
"Alright, Honey, grab our son and I'll take the skull and we'll get settled in," Angela smiled, carefully packing up her supplies and gently carrying the skull out the door as Hodges through a blanket over Michael and followed.
Sweets offered his arm and Daisy bounded to him and they too took their leave.
Bones sat down on the couch and motioned for Booth to join her. "Angela said you were a superhero," she smirked.
Booth flashed his smile that he always did when paid a compliment. It always made Brennan remember that that the "Cocky" belt buckle wasn't just innuendo, it was in fact true. She chuckled a bit.
"I am a superhero!" He smiled. "Remember, I'm Clarke Kent, and you're Wonder Woman."
"If you had really been Superman, that bullet would not have penetrated your epidermis when it bounced off my wrist band." Bones smirked.
"You know what, Bones, stop thinking about this logically," he laughed and lunged at her, enveloping her in his arms as they kissed.
