Toxic Skull and Bones

CHAPTER ONE:
Skull and Bones


Temperance Brennan entered her apartment with an arm full of mail. She closed the door with her spare foot, and clicked the light switch with her elbow. She headed toward the counter and plopped her armload of papers and packages onto it. She smiled, happy to free herself of the load and started to organize the letters and packages into piles. "Ad, bill, fan mail." Her eyes drifted to one peculiar package. Because she didn’t know where to file it she decided to open it. She grasped the bronze letter opener and sliced through the tape with ease. Carefully she opened the sides of the box, and found herself face to face with a skull. She opened her purse and removed a pair of latex gloves and pulled them on. She clutched the skull and carefully pulled it out of the box. She held it up to the fluorescent kitchen light to more carefully examine it. She tapped the skull with the nail of her index finger. “Plastic,” she stated quizzically. “It looks so real.” Holding the skull up to the light she rotated it slowly to study it from every angle. She discovered that the back of the skull held a meticulous engraving in bold letters.
Temperance read the engraving aloud.
"COME AND SEE WHERE THIS VICTIM WILL LAY, FOR SHE WILL DIE IN JUST ONE DAY."Temperance speed dialed her partner Agent Seeley Booth.
"Booth speaking"
"Booth,” Temperance began nervously, “someone mailed me a plastic skull!"
"It's not the first time you’ve received a weird gift from some deranged fan,” Booth chuckled.
"I don’t think it is from a fan. There’s an engraving on the back.” Temperance read the engraving to Booth.
"COME AND SEE WHERE THIS VICTIM WILL LAY FOR SHE WILL DIE IN JUST ONE DAY."
"Hmmmm.” Booth said, “I'll be over in a few minutes"
"All-right." she said, and hung up the phone.
She looked at the skull on the counter. It was strange how uneasy it made her feel. She backed away from the skull and sank into an armchair to wait for her partner. She was too nervous to just sit, so she began marking the skull with some tissue markers made of erasers that she had in her bag.
Finally the intercom buzzed. She pushed the button to open the building door.Booth took the stairs two at a time. The tone in his partner’s voice had made him a little uneasy. He knocked at the door."It's open," Temperance called.Booth entered the apartment and found his partner who was hunched over the counter table placing pieces of eraser onto the plastic skull.
He studied the skull. "You know, Bones, this skull is not real! Why in the world are you putting erasers on it?" Booth questioned.
Temperance picked up the skull to show her partner, "Look at the sutures, and the texture," she explained, pointing to the skull. "All the anatomical details are exactly perfect!"
"Bones, what are you getting at here?" Booth inquired intently.
Temperance answered, "Booth, this is an extremely precise replica of an actual skull!"
"Okay, Bones, what’s your verdict?” Booth said.
"The nasal arch and cheek bones indicate that a Caucasian female."
"Age?" Booth asked hunched over to take a closer look.
"Late twenties, early thirties."
"This is all a little creepy, but it's kind of cool." Booth grinned. "Do you think that Angela can put it in the Angelator to figure out the mystery suspect?"
"Yes, of course." She answered "I have already put on tissue markers, so we can scan it at the Jeffersonian."
"Alrighty then," he said snapping his fingers and pointing to the door. She carefully put the skull into the box and headed toward the vehicle while she speed dialed Angela.
When they arrived to the Jeffersonian, Temperance of course behind Booth while she carefully grasped the package. She didn't want to walk faster so she could secure the safety of the evidence. "Come on Bones hurry up!" Booth insisted. She glared at him still staying her pace. "You know we are on a deadline here?" Booth questioned. Temperance just ignored him not feeling like settling into a heated argument. She had bigger priorities then that. She wanted to find Angela and catch the perpetrator.
As she had assumed she was in the Angelator room with the weekly squint, the depressed Conlin Fisher by her side. They were getting the computer ready to scan the skull. When she saw Temperance she came over. "How are you holding up sweetie?" Angela asked soothingly.
"Fine, but it would make me feel better if we found out who this who this person is." Temperance stated as she carefully pulled the skull out of the box. Angela looked stunned, "When did you this?" Angela asked pointing to the protruding erasers from the skull.

"I did the tissue markers when I was waiting for Booth to come to pick me up." Temperance said, while Booth smiled and waved somewhat introducing himself to the matter. Temperance carefully handed the Skull to Angela to scan. Angela carefully pinpointed the points and put them in, and in thirty minutes time she was done. Angela smiled, "Are you ready to see our mystery subject." Angela grinned as she pressed the button to reveal it on the hand-held screen before projecting it onto the large 3D monitor.
"OH MY." Angela's voice quivered.
"Angela, What's the matter?" Temperance pleaded
When Angela pressed the button to reveal the unknown suspect the whole room went silent. There was fear in the room, lots of it. Booth could only stutter three words "B....Bones it's...it's you!!!" Temperance couldn't move, while she stared face to with herself.
