Its getting there, working in my down time and its getting there. This chapters a little different from the rest, but, enjoy. Beta read by the brilliant Katie.

It's a Happy Birthday present to myself. Birthday today. Yay: )

Keep on Trying

Cam stared at the clock 3...2...1

When the clock finally hit zero Cam had no idea what to do. Surely their time was up and they had failed. There was no way they were getting them out now, they only had enough air for 12 hours and that deadline was gone and time was slipping by fast. She felt like breaking down and screaming in annoyance.

True, when she started at this job she felt that Dr. Brennan was cold and aloof and had considered replacing her on more than one occasion, the only thing that had stopped her was that they both tried to do the same thing. They both worked towards a common goal; to put the bad guys in jail and to have their victims truth be told, just like in the television shows that had inspired her when she was young. Now though it was surely too late.

Booth wasn't giving up though; he was there, thumping Zach's screen trying to get the kid to concentrate. When she first saw this team work together it astounded her at how efficient they could be when they were all clearly polar opposites. Zach was highly anti-social, following his mentor along the road to seclusion while Hodgins just creeped every one out. Angela seemed the only normal one but even she had her moments.

Following Booth to the car and watching the road go by as they rushed to where Brennan and Hodgins where felt like the longest time in her life. It can't have been two minutes, if that but it felt like a lifetime.

When she saw the vast expanse of area though she knew that they were lost, she just knew it. But something in Booths posture told her that he didn't think so, he knew that something would happen and when she saw him pelt down the dune towards a puff of dirt dust and began to dig she felt her heart leap into her throat. They were ok.

Watching Booth pull Brennan out of the ground had to be one of the most terrifying moments of her life, because somehow, in a midst all of the death and veiled threats, this team had began to feel like a family to her. She knew now that they were ok and she was glad.

She saw Booth glance at her and she gave him a nod of relief while thanking him with her eyes. He got her team out safe, well relatively, and sound. She didn't miss Brennan's smile falling off her face until Booth looked her way again and said something to make her laugh.

Dr Saroyan sighed as she turned back to check on Hodgins. She had known somewhere in her gut that there was a good probability that Booth only worked this hard on finding them because Brennan was one of the ones missing. She didn't doubt that he would still work as hard for any of the others but she didn't think he would lose his cool as quickly.

She looked at Booth cradling Brennan in his arms and she knew it would end, her and Booth, and undoubtedly soon but right now she didn't want to dwell on that. She had her team back. That's all that mattered now.

She looked at the beaming smiles and could feel the joy in the air; she looked at her surrogate brothers and sisters and smiled. She loved her true family, like every family it had its issues and she had always felt like the outsider. Now she stood here and she knew she was accepted for who she was.

Herself, and her family, had found a way home.
