Well, Jerseygirl, It is called a writer's block, but not to worry, that has been taken care of.
I can't believe that it would actually work. Well if my presence can scare them, I can't wait to see what Number One is capable of doing to them.
He started to prepare the room for what was about to come.
Booths attention remained fixated on Brennan. He looked into her eyes.
"Temperance."
His gaze was begging her not to do this.
"Don't shut me out, Tempe, please, don't."
Damn it, all the progress that she made, it's entirely gone. She has drawn back into herself!
I can't believe I let this happen!
But no matter what happens, I won't let them hurt her again.
Never!!!
No matter what!!!
Number Two had prepared the room. He had placed a small table behind Booths chair.
On it, there was a bottle of painkillers, a blindfold and a knife.
The blindfold and the knife were real, the painkillers weren't.
There was one very strong sedative in it, similar to the one that Number Two had given Booth.
The only difference was that it wouldn't work as fast, because it was not a liquid.
The rest of the pills in the bottle were harmless vitamine pills.
He bent down and whispered in Booths ear:
"Show Time!"
Relieved that that son of a bitch had finally left the room he closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
He opened his eyes and looked up at the frightened and fragile woman on top of him.
"Temperance, I know that everything looks bad right now, but I promise I'll keep you safe."
The moment he'd made the promise was the exact moment when he realized that he would never be able to keep it.
But he didn't care, he couldn't care. At this point he was ready to say anything to make her feel better.
And he did.
Unfortunately, nothing worked.
Nothing he said, triggered a reaction.
She just sat there, completely withdrawn in herself.
He didn't have any idea on how to make her react.
I have tried everything!!!
Looking at her, talking to her, I even tried to reason with her.
Nothing worked.
There is only one thing left to do.
God, I really hoped it wouldn't come to this.
"Bones."
A wild storm flashed inside of her, but she didn't move.
She did however ceased to stare at the wall and for the first time since Number Two had left she looked into his eyes.
"Trust me."
She nodded and let her head rest on his shoulder.
Booth sighed in relief.
45 excruciating minutes after Number Two left, Number One entered the room.
Booth tensed.
It took me half an hour to get through to her. I'm not letting them hurt her again.
"Don't worry, Tempe, I won't let them hurt you."
He whispered in her ear as Number One approached them.
Number One walked towards the table that was standing behind Booth.
He bent over just as Number Two had done almost an hour ago and whispered two words into his ear:
"Her faith is the same as my baby sisters faith was. "
"The faith of Susie Tyler."
Booths heart sank into his stomach.
Oh my god!
All of a sudden everything started to make sense to him.
It's Luke Tyler!
He is the one who raped her in the first place.
Because someone raped his sister.
But wait, what does he mean?
Susie Tyler took her own life.
Bones would never do that!
...
Would she?
"Luke, I..."
"Stop it, Booth."
Luke snapped at him.
"Don't you dare talk me out of this, Booth! Besides, you knew that this would eventually happen."
Confused by his statement, Booth wanted to react, but he didn't have time because Luke was walking around him to get to her.
Luke took the blindfold and walked around the chair, now facing Booth and standing behind Brennan.
"Don't you dare touch her, Luke!"
He draped the blindfold around her neck, looked up at him and said:
"Just out of curiousity, Booth. But exactly how are you going to stop me?"
Booth hated to admit it but he knew that Luke was right.
There is absolutely nothing I can do to protect her and it is driving me CRAZY!
Seeing the distress, despair and helplessness in Booths eyes, Luke decided to take it a step further. He was just planning on blindfolding her to have a "one on one " talk with Booth, but decided that he couldn't pass this up.
