Mendenbar thanks for the superglue info I'll write that down with my various other misc. info!
Thank you everyone for the reviews you guys are awesome!
Everyone split up for dinner agreeing that they would meet in an hour and a half at the labs.
Heading back to the Sequoia Brennan stripped at the back, threw the overalls in the back, and climbed in the passenger seat. Everyone else stripped and climbed in and Booth leaned over and kissed her then grinned. He then drove out onto the road and back to the hotel.
"What was that all about Booth?" Cam asked.
"Bones let me arrest her ex-boyfriend. In fact she pointed him out so I would," he laughed out while grinning from ear to ear.
Brennan rolled her eyes. "He was breaking the law with the possibility of contaminating a scene," she stated.
"I don't care I just got to arrest him," Booth said and Hodgins and Cam burst into laughter at his antics.
They arrived at the hotel and as they; all strode into the lobby they were met with an angry Michael Stires. They tried to walk by but he placed himself in front of Brennan.
"I can't believe you had me arrested," he snarled in anger.
"What evidence do you have that I had you arrested?"
"You spoke with Booth right before he arrested me," he pointed out.
"Yes I did. Is it unusual for partners to speak at crime scenes? Exactly. Now please move we only have an hour to eat dinner and get to the lab. You may have gotten into the conference but you are unable to get any information on the current federal investigation."
She tried to push pass him but he put his hand out and grabbed her arm. She stopped and Booth was right behind her. He skidded to a stop before he knocked her over. Looking at Michaels hand and then up to his face Booth calmly stated. "Let go of her arm, Dr. Stires."
"What do you think you are her boyfriend? You're just her work partner and she is not working. Come on Tempe I have a room upstairs we can talk about this," Stires offered.
"Actually Dr. Stires I am in fact both so I suggest you take your hands off of her and leave. Before I have you arrested for assaulting a federal contractor, which will definitely be more than a five hundred dollar fine. Of course, I may just take the boyfriend route and beat the crap out of you. Those are your two options pick one," Booth glared at him.
Michael glared at Booth and said. "I can do whatever I want. I can go where ever I want..you can go to hell."
Booth looked at him with a suddenly bored expression, "Been there done that."
Michael looked at Brennan who glared at him. Michael tried to grab at Brennan. Booth stepped forward and punched Michael in the face. Michael fell backwards into the floor. Stepping over him the group entered the elevator and went to the room.
An hour later, they entered the lab. There were three bodies in each room and there were five rooms. The last five bodies were in the morgue they were told by a low-level technician.
"You take half Dr. Saroyan and I'll take the other half. Would you like Odds or Evens?" Brennan asked nodded and the groups split in half and followed a doctor.
"Odds," Cam called out as she entered another room. The agents followed their techs. The rooms were reasonably sized so everyone could fit in without elbowing each other. Pulling on her lab coat she looked over to a tech sitting by the door.
"Are you from this laboratory?" The young man nodded.
"I need preliminary sheets, evidence trays, forceps, gloves, to know if your boiling tank is already prepared and if x-rays have been taken?"
The young technician ran around gathering the items and gave them to her. He quickly left the room to find out about the tank. He returned to let her know it was not ready and the x-rays had in fact been taken. She rolled her eyes and told him to set it up.
"For the sake of saving time I am sending the X-rays to the Jeffersonian for development. Dr. Bray will digitally send me copies so they can be reviewed and the film will be mailed back here tomorrow. She walked over to her computer and opened the conference scene.
"Hey Hey Wendell!" Booth called out.
"Hey Booth I tivoed the game and sent it to Dr. Brennan's computer."
"Thanks man!"
"Booth will you stop using my computer for hockey games," Brennan fussed frowning at him. The agents were laughing when they saw a kid flash across the background in the hallway.
"Wendell turn up the volume," Brennan instructed. Wendell adjusted something in front of him and stepped back.
"Parker Booth!" Parker's head appeared in the door and he ran up to the screen.
"Hey Bones, what are you doing on the computer, where is dad?"
"Parker stop running in the lab. Where is Max?"
"Yes Bones, he is setting up a speriment."
"Experiment and you should go help him," she instructed.
"Okay but it is boring," he said giving her the Booth pout. She gave him a you'd better do it look.
"Listen to Bones bub," Booth instructed from the back of the room.
"DAD!" Everyone flinched as the shout echoed around the room.
"Where are you? I can't see you." Brennan turned the computer around. Booth and Parker had a quick conversation about running in the lab. After they finished Wendell came back on the screen and they proceeded through what needed to be done. Leaving the connection open, she took the techs through the paper work and examination. After the first one, she split the techs up into two teams and had them do their own examinations and paper work.
They removed evidence under her careful scrutiny. Booth talked to the agents about looking at evidence like bullets to see if they could identify by sight. How it was important to talk to the techs while respecting their space. After the techs were finished, she had them stack their observations and moved around the body doing examinations herself and removing and labeling particulates, they missed.
They watched in interest as Booth quizzed her about her findings and her replies. How she continued examining while they spoke. How she never looked up at him while speaking to him and how this did not affect him. After the first three bodies were finished, they gave them a number on their table and moved them back to the cooler to wait for defleshing. They went through the same thing with the last three.
By the time, they were finished the agents and techs were interacting as they discussed the evidence. Booth watched as she moved around and through people being careful to protect the evidence and still teach them to see it. By the time the bodies were finished it was 12am. Everyone packed up and left. Telling them that tomorrow would be spent at the lab again. They drove back to the hotel in complete silence.
Reaching the hotel, they all trooped up to the room.
"We still have to put together the information for the Zetas summaries," Brennan sighed out and Cam nodded.
Booth looked at Cam and Hodgins as though they were nuts.
"We still have work to do Booth. I'll go get Sweets," Cam said.
She left and came back in a few minutes dragging a disgruntled Sweets. They sat down at the table. Brennan took notes using short had and they were done in less than an hour. After everyone left Charlie went up to his room and Booth kissed the top of Brennan's head.
"Don't stay up to late Bones." She nodded and started typing. She finished the summary in another three hours set the computer to print and fell asleep waiting for the copies to print. Booth came down in the morning and found her head on her keyboard and the printer printing the last sheet. He kissed her on the temple and when she didn't wake up, he sighed.
Sitting her up gently he scooped her up and carried her to their room. She mumbled about the lab and Booth ignored it. He stripped her down and put a tee shirt on her. Leaving the room, he went back down to the kitchen and made coffee. A few minutes later Charlie came down. They sat together drinking coffee and collating the summaries.
At eight o'clock, the team had arrived and received their summaries.
"Okay guys let's keep it down to a dull roar. Bones is sleeping," Booth advised the agents.
"Well then tell her to get up," laughed out Boleman.
"She stayed up last night to make these summaries and hadn't been asleep long when I woke up," Booth countered.
"How do you know how long she was asleep if you were asleep?" Simpson asked.
"She didn't have ASTNHUIPNG' on her face yet," Booth said with a small smile.
The agents looked confused and Angela rolled her eyes and explained, "She stayed at the lab last night with you guys, came back here took the summaries, typed them then printed them. Which means Booth found her asleep on her keyboard. If she had been asleep long then those letters would have been imprinted on her face."
The agents nodded in understanding.
"Okay so let's do a run through so everyone is on the same page. Los Zetas is a Mexican drug cartel that deals in the illegal manufacturing and selling of illegal drugs. They also traffic in human sales. They work in cells each individual of the other so that no one group can rat out another. Their preferred weapons are AR-15, AK-47's, and MP5's. They are highly organized and trained. They were founded by, the Mexican version of special ops. We recently arrested the local Los Halcones Bolivar Fuentes. His sons seemed to have picked up their activity in the last forty-eight hours, as the Zetas do not use women for anything other than los leopardos. Which are prostitutes that gather information? Their main trade is heroin and women. The last bit of intelligence we got on them is that they were ordered to engage in full tactical response should we attempt to intervene," Booth did a brief summary.
A/N So now we have a brief idea about Los Zetas. Which by the way all the information I got about them was off the internet (hopefully I won't get into any trouble for knowing this stuff lol). I really just wanted someone to hit Michael Stires so tada Booth to the rescue. Yeah we've had the x-ray discussion but I needed a reason to connect to the Jeffersonian, so we're just going to roll with it. I have in fact woke up with the ASTNHUIPNG on my face when I was in college lol. And just in case you missed it there is a Buffy line in here ;-) can you spot it?
REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW! It makes me feel special lol!
