A/N: I don't own Bones

"What's the plan?" Booth asked Cullen as he walked into his office. Only 16 hours remained until the deadline.

"We're not giving him the money or destroying the evidence. We're going to track him down and bring Dr. Brennan home." Cullen answered.

"Okay. What do we have so far?" Booth asked as calmly as he could, despite the anticipation and anger that was biting away at him.

"Not much. We know that Landers is our man, but we don't have a firm idea as to where they may be." Cullen told him. Booth nodded as he turned around to walk away.

"Where are you going?" Cullen asked.

"I'm going to find Bones." He said simply.

Twenty minutes later Booth was flashing his badge at security in the Jeffersonian. He walked up to the platform to see Zach examining remains.

"Agent Booth. Did you find her?" Zach asked like a helpless six year old.

"No Zach. But I'm going to." He replied as he walked past him, heading towards Angela's office.

"Booth!" She said as she opened the door to her office. Her eyes were red and puffy, and Booth knew that she had been crying.

"Ange, I need to talk to you." Booth said as he guided her back into her office.

"Oh god. What happened?" Angela asked as her face turned stark white.

"Nothing. But we have sixteen hours until the deadline. Once the deadline gets here, I'm pretty sure he's going to move her, and we'll never be able to find her." Booth told Angela.

"Do you have any ideas?" She asked him. He shook his head in defeat.

Without any warning, Booth began to cry.

"Ange, I can't do this. If anything happens to her or the baby, I'll die. I have to find her, and I have to bring them both home safely." Booth said as his body rocked with sobs. Angela sat down beside of him and hugged him.

Then he felt the vibration of his cell phone in his left pocket. He quickly jerked it out and answered it.

"Booth." He answered. A few seconds passed before he spoke again. "Oh my god. Okay. I'll be right there." He spat out as he hung up his phone. He jumped off of the couch and bolted for the door.

"What! What happened?" A worried Angela asked as she followed Booth out onto the platform.

"They tracked down Bones' cell phone. A call was made from her phone at 2:43 the day she disappeared. They used GPS to track down where the phone is." Booth said as he quickened his stride. Within 6 steps he was standing on the steps of the Jeffersonian with an excited Angela hot on his heels.

"So they know where she is?" Angela asked as she climbed into the car with Booth.

"They better know." Booth replied as he started the engine of his SUV.

"Only sixteen more hours." Landers said as he paced back and forth across the room.

"Shut up." Brennan said bluntly. This only gained her a harsh blow to the cheek.

"Don't talk to me like that." He said as he retracted his hand from Brennan's face. He smiled in satisfaction as she rolled onto her side in pain.

"You're not going to get your money, and they're not going to destroy the evidence." Bones whispered as tears escaped from her eyes.

"Then I'll just kill you and be done with it." He replied cooly.

"You're wrong. Booth is going to find me, and I'm going to deliver a healthy baby." She continued. She honestly believed this statement, and she thought that if she continued to believe it, that she would make it through.

"The call was traced to an area just outside of Richmond, Virginia." Cullen stated. Booth jumped up.

"Let's go." He said as he grabbed his keys.

"Hold on Agent Booth. We can't just go parading out there. We have to organize a swat team and call for backup. The ride will take at least 3 hours." Cullen told him.

"What is the address?" Booth asked.

Cullen sighed. "4102 Duster Lane."

"Thanks." Booth said as he exited the Hoover Building.

Booth made it to his SUV and climbed inside. Angela sat in the passenger seat with a look of curiousity on her face/

"Well?" She asked. Booth didn't answer her. Instead he grabbed his cell phone and dialed a number.

"This is FBI Agent Seeley Booth. I'm going to need a swat team and heavy backup at 4102 Duster Lane outside of Richmond, Virginia." Booth spoke into the phone. "Thank you." He finished as he closed his cell phone.

He was saving Bones.
