Chapter 16- Epistaxis
"Oh Zack" Brennan said "It's beautiful". She held up a tiny baby pillow. It was hand stitched with pink hearts and yellow baby rattles.
"Every Addy has one. Mine has dinosaurs and rattles on it. When you have the baby and name it,Mama is going to make a matching blanket with the baby's birth information on it."
"Zack. I don't know what to say. This is...amazing."Brennan said.
"Well Mama knows that you are my family. She says that anyone who takes care of me like you do is a member of her family. Although I don't know how thats possible seeing as you are not in fact an actual blood relative."
"I understand what you mean. Booth says that we are all family. Booth says that there is more then one kind of family. Maybe that it what your mother means."
"Oh. I think I understand. So how are you feeling? Mama says that you might not be feeling well."
"I'm ok. My uterus is expanding as the baby grows so it aches a little." Brennan said. She noticed Zack's eyes widen "What?"
"You have a epistaxis"Zack said.
"Damn it."Brennan said,jumping up to get a tissue. Suddenly the phone started ringing "Zack can you get that!"Brennan called.
"Hello?"
"Zack?Where's Bones?"said Booth
"She is in the bathroom. She has a epistaxis."
"A what! Laments term,Zack"
"A...nose bleed."
"Oh. Thank God. Tell her I am on my way home."
"Ok. Good bye Booth."Zack said,hanging up.
"Who was it?"Brennan asked. She was holding a blood soaked tissue to her nose.
"Booth. He's on his way home. Here sit. Put you head back."Zack said.
"Thank you,Zack I know how to handel a epistaxis."
"Alright. Can I do anything else."
"Some company would be nice."Brennan said.
"Okay. Dr.Brennan may I ask you a question?"
"Yes Zack,anything"
"Are you scared?"
The question took Brennan by surprise. She wasn't expecting to feel at a loss of words "I...I am scared. But fear is an un-needed emotion."
"Angela says it is al right to feel afraid."
"I know. Angela is always saying things like that. Booth says that Angela is better at emotion then I am."
"Yes. That is true."
Suddenly Booth burst through the door "You okay?" He asked rushing to Brennan.
"Booth?. Yes I am fine. You didn't have to rush home."
"I didn't...okay I rush. Whatever,as long as you are al right."
"I'm fine.Look at what Zack's mother made for the baby"Brennan said,handing Booth the pillow "She says that I a memember of the Addy family"
Booth examined the pillow "It has pink hearts on it."
"Mama says its going to be a girl. She says she knows these things. Although that is impossible..."Zack said.
"It's wonderful,Zack." Booth said.
"I will tell Mama that you like it."
Booth and Brennan were standing over an examination table. They were arguing over masks.
"Booth I don't need a mask. I never wear a mask."Brennan said.
"Bones,toxins that could be all over these bones is bad for the baby. Not to mention the toxins that the Squint Squad uses to solve cases."
"Booth. I think I know what my body can take."
"Bones. You're body is not the issue. The baby is the size of my hand. It's little body can't take toxins like yours.Please,put on the mask"Booth
begged.
Bones looked at Booth. He was staring at her with those strong will full eyes that she loathed so much.
"Don't look at me like that!"Bones cried.
"Put on the mask!"Booth demanded.
Brennan snatched the mask from Booth and tugged it on "Happy?" she said planting her hands on her hips.
"Very!" Booth said kissing Brennan through the mask. Suddenly Brennan looked down. She was glowing,beaming from ear to ear.
"What?"Booth asked. Brennan took his hand and put it on her slightly swollen belly "Feel that?" She asked as the baby kicked.
"Oh my lord in heaven. Did the baby just kick me?"Booth asked,stupidly.
Brennan nodded. Booth smiled "Thats our baby. Already fighting."
"Our baby"Brennan echoed.
"Ok,Zack what do you know about the victim?"Brennan asked.
"Ursala White 23 from Richmond,Virginia.Disappeared a month ago. Survived by her husband Michael White and six month old son Henry."
"Any suspects,Booth?"
"An old high school friend Marcus King was obsessed with her. We questioned him and he confessed."
"That's it. Nothing else?"
"He raped her and strangled her. Then he drove her body to the river. Case closed."
"Well. Good work team."Cam said.
Brennan was disappointed that there wasn't more to the case. She needed something to take her mind off of life. Little did she know she was about
to get her wish.
Suddenly a gun shot rang throughout the lab. Brennan looked up and saw a women dressed in all black,pointing a gun at the celing. She had a motorcycle helmet on,so no one knew who she was.
"I want to see Dr. Brennan!"she shouted "Back off!" she screamed as guards tried closing in.
Brennan took a step forward "What do you want from me?" she shouted.
"Bones!"Booth shouted "What are you doing?"
"In your office...Now!"The woman bellowed.
Brennan walked into her office as the woman held the gun to her back.
"If you want her alive stay away!"the woman shouted before slamming the door.
Inside Brennan's office the woman pulled the shades down and sat Brennan on the sofa.
"What do you want?"Brennan asked. The woman didn't answer. She unloaded her gun. Bullets dropped onto the floor. Then the woman gathered them up and handed them and the gun to Brennan.
Then she pulled her helmet off "I'm Alexandria Harmony Duke-Johnson. And I want to help."
