Disclaimer: I don't own Bones.
Okay so this chapter is kind of about meeting the agents they will be working with. Enter stage left our favorite annoying agent. Agent Finley.
They jumped when the alarm clock went off. Her arm reached out and Booth saw the alarm clock fly across the room and hit the wall. He chuckled low in his throat; he heard a loud knock on the bedroom door. Charlie called in an anxious voice, "Booth are you okay in there?"
"Yes Charlie I'm fine. Bones doesn't like alarm clocks." They heard Charlie laugh and walk off.
"Come on Bones we have a meeting this morning," Booth whispered next to her temple.
She groaned he laughed and told her, "You sleep for a few more minutes and I'll go shower."
He showered and then went downstairs and made a pot of coffee in the kitchen. Going back upstairs, he passed Charlie telling him,
"Coffee is in the pot." He continued on to the bedroom.
When he opened the door, he saw she was in the shower. He went back down stairs and poured himself a cup of coffee. He heard the bedroom door close and fixed her a cup of coffee.
"Wow she's got you trained," Charlie, laughed.
"No she makes mine when she gets up first," Booth snarked back and grinned at him, "Besides you're just jealous."
"Hell yeah, she's smart, she's hot and she's taken," Charlie snorted.
"Yes I am, thank you I think, and where am I taken to, Agent Burns" Brennan smiled out as Booth handed her the coffee.
"Please call me Charlie," he told her. She looked at him, gave him a small smile and nodded.
"So what exactly are we doing this morning?" Charlie asked.
Booth replied with, "General introductions, goals, who does what."
She nodded and asked, "Do you want breakfast?"
The guys nodded and she asked Charlie what he wanted and he told her. She placed the call and they sat down to wait. While they were waiting, Cam and Sweets came up. They sat discussing the case when there was another knock at the door. Getting up Booth went to the door and let Angela and Hodgins in. The food arrived in a few minutes and Charlie's eyes widened at the amount of food she had ordered.
She shrugged, "I figured everyone else would want food as well. Donuts for the agents will be here in a half an hour." The agents began trickling in over the next half an hour and by eight am everyone was there squeezed in around the table. Brennan looked around rolled her eyes and walked to the phone. After a brief discussion, a table was brought right up and pushed next to the one they had.
The agents settled comfortably around the table. Noticing the pot was empty, she made coffee. When she went to sit down, she saw Sweets was sitting next to Booth. She looked to his other side and saw Charlie.
"Move over Sweets that's my seat," she said with a no nonsense tone. Charlie laughed and watched as Sweets moved over one seat. Sweets had left the seat open knowing Brennan would want to sit next to Booth. The agents were glancing around at each other. So Booth took the initiative.
"Okay introductions here we go. I'm SAC Seeley Booth, this here is my partner Dr. Temperance Brennan call her Dr. Brennan. I am the only one who can call her Bones. This is my squint squad you met them on the first day but we'll review. Dr. Camille Saroyan, Dr. Jack Hodgins, Angela Montenegro-Hodgins who is not a doctor but can make technology sit up and take notice and Dr. Lance Sweets. On to the Agents side, we have here, Finley from Houston, Juarez from El Paso, Zaben from San Antonio, Fannin from Anchorage, Gibbons from Indianapolis. That is Danovich from Tampa, O'Brien from Little Rock, Raburn from Seattle, Harding from New Orleans, Simpson from Knoxville, Donelli from New Haven, Perotta from New York, Walt from Los Vegas, Boleman from San Juan, Arbo from Honolulu and last but not least Charlie Burns from D.C offices. Thank you all for joining us. Charlie is my left hand man and Bones is my right."
They all nodded and they heard a mumbling from the other end of the table. Angela was leaning across the table reaching for Finely before anyone could blink. Brennan and Hodgins grabbed the back of her shirt and pulled her down into her seat. Brennan stood up, leaned forward on the table, and leveled a cold stare at Agent Finley.
"Agent Finley I don't like you. If you insist on saying something please make sure it improves the silence with intelligence not stupidity." She said it with enough venom to make some of the agents flinch. Booth reached up, grabbed her hips, and pulled her down in the chair.
Booth glared across the table at Finley and warned him in a low tone, "Finley I am warning you. Do not start. This case is too important for you to be getting petulant because Bones kicked your ass in front of forty other agents. If you step out of line, you will be taken off the case. Do you understand me?" Finley nodded and glared as the agents chuckled about Brennan kicking his ass.
Booth continued, "Now, we're here to deal with the shooting and the Los Zetas issue that has been plaguing the area. Obviously, given the way this gang has been working over the years, we are not going to be able to stop them completely but we can put a hurting on them. For right now, until I get all the files, we will be still doing conference stuff but when it comes to the actual case, you will be working closely with my team. Your forensic half should contact Bones and give contact information to her. You will stick with your tech like glue, where they go you go, where you are, they are unless it is a situation they are not trained to handle. Got it?"
The agents nodded a knock at the door. Charlie got up and answered the door. Letting the delivery person in he took the donuts and set the various plates on the table. The agents started eating and discussing their abilities with other agents. Raburn walked over to Angela and she smiled recognizing him as the one who would find out who her father was.
He grinned at her and stated, "Your father's name is Javier Romaniaov and he is an ex-KGB agent." She burst out laughing at him the agents stopped and stared.
Between giggles, she told him, "Sweetie don't use back doors they can get you into trouble. Two more strikes and you're out." She winked at him and turned back to talking to Brennan. After everyone ate, the agents began laying out information about who could do what.
"So what does Dr. Brennan bring to the table?" Finley smirked at her.
She glared and growled out. "Traigo mas de tu, idiota. Si no te callas te pego un tiro."
Agent Boleman burst into laughter and winked at her. Finley glared so she smirked knowing that she spoke fast enough that only a native speaker would have understood her. Booth raised his eyebrow for translation.
"I told him I brought more than he did. Then I called him a dumb ass and then told him if he didn't shut up I would shoot him," she translated.
The table roared in laughter. Booth looked at Finley and clenched his jaw. Charlie looked at Finley.
"Finley she has now proven that she can physically and mentally kick your ass. If you keep going after her Booth will shoot you. Last warning."
Finley nodded and sat back. By this time, it was time to go to the conference center. Everyone left taking their vehicles. Cam, Sweets, Charlie, Booth and Brennan took the Sequoia. Angela and Hodgins taking the vehicle they arrived in. Arriving they headed to their lectures and discussions. Meeting up for lunch, they were eating when Brennan turned to Hodgins to ask about the evidence.
He let her know that he still had them safe. Booth nodded hearing the conversation and went back to his discussion with Perotta. An agent walked up to the table.
"SAC Booth?" He looked up and nodded at him. The agent walked over and dropped an armload of folders on the table.
Looking at Booth, he said, "I have two more trips I'll be right back."
The agent chuckled as he went out to his vehicle. Booth just shook his head and sighed. Brennan reached under the table and squeezed his thigh. He knew she would be helping him deal with this paper work. Cam looked at the pile and rolled her eyes. Booth knew she was in too. Sweets raised his eyebrows he was helping as well. Charlie just shook his head. No other agent he knew could get that kind of loyalty from other people. He just smiled.
**********************************************************************************************************
The day passed quickly and they loaded up the files and headed back to the hotel. Everyone grabbed a stack and spread out. Booth and Brennan laying on the floor, Charlie at the coffee table, Cam and Sweets spread out across the table.
"Bolivar has four children Juan, Javier, Angelina, and Marie. That may be useful," Booth said.
By eleven p.m, they were only half way through the stack. Brennan stood up closed her folder went to her computer and clicked the conference for the Jeffersonian. A minute later Wendell popped up on the screen.
"Hi Dr. Brennan."
"Hello Wendell have you finished with the John Doe I left you?"
"Yes Dr. Brennan his remains were shipped to his family this evening."
"Good, everything is running smoothly?"
"Yes Dr. Brennan."
"I spoke with the Administrator of the lab here. They take 48 hours for x-ray development so I will be beaming you x-rays when necessary for development so they can be beamed back."
"I will take care of it myself."
"Thank you Wendell. Have a good night."
"Good night Dr. Brennan." She closed the connection.
"Good night everyone."
"Night." She went up to the bedroom after the door closed.
Cam looked at Booth. "I think you're actually good for her. She would usually be the last one to go to bed."
"Naahhh she just hates paper work as much as I do. That and there's not actually anyone dead at this point," Booth replied.
Cam shook her head, marked her spot and said good night. Sweets did the same, it was Charlie, and Booth left reading. They stopped around 11:30 and went up to bed.
And before anyone says anything I realize Harding was local law enforcement from New Orleans, I just happen to like her so I made her an agent =). I also have no idea how long x-rays take to develop and couldn't find it on the net so I guessed.
I love hearing what you think so please review!
