AN: Ok this is set during the episode The Boy in the Shroud, in season 2. This is how i would see myself in the show. Weird and stupid yeah probably, but I just couldn't help myself. My name IS Alexis, so I am this almost mythical chick, yeah I know, but I can dream can't I!!! But LOL yeah, mostly about Alexis helping Brennan and Booth with the investigation. I won't go to much into the investigation itself, and I will focus on the more Alexis tieing Booth and Brennan together and they act as a family. Of course there will be fluff, like alot, and maybe somethning more...WHO KNOWS. Cause I sure as hell dont xD
Different Than the Others
Booth and Brennan walked along the street looking at all of the street kids sitting around and lounging. Booth looked around, careful that no one would hurt him, or more importantly his Bones. While Brennan walked forward wanting the information she wanted.
"Should we ask them?" she said pointing to a group of kids
"Bones, I don't think-" he started but Brennan was already walking forward "Excuse me?" she said "Can we ask you a question?"
The three kids stared at her and stayed silent. "On one condition," a guy with many peircings said
"And what would that presume to be?" Brennan asked
"Lex!" The guy called
A blonde teenager, approximately 18 or 19 appeared out of the shadows. Her hair was a golden blonde, and it shined in the sun light over the tattered buildings. Her fitted black shirt was slightly tattered along her arms, and her jeans where torn to shorts. Her hair was long and whipped by her face as she leaned against the wall "What?" she said
The guy nodded to the two "Do your job."
The woman sighed and jumped over the railings of the building landing neatly and easily on the ground. She took one glance at Booth "FBI, easy" she said towards him
Booth sighed, and Brennan held back a giggle, all of the kids here knew that he was a cop
The woman looked Brennan up and down and held her wrist out. She took Brennans hand and ran her fingers over the veins. She pulled the wrist to her nose, and smelled it, then tasted it. Her face scrunched up "Latex." She said "Scrawny." She said looking Brennan over
"Hey! I'm not scrawny!" Brennan objected
The teenager turned her back and then turned quickly and threw a punch toward her that Brennan quickly deflected, but the girl pulled back before Brennan could continue "Black belt." She said. "Timid, and not very smart with social relations."
Brennan narrowed her eyes "How are you so sure?" she asked
"You should have listened to your cop friend," the woman said pulling a gun from behind her shorts
Booth held his gun up, but the woman raised her hand "Don't bother, it's not loaded."
"Then why do you have it?" Booth asked
"Have you ever been condemned to living on the streets since you were 10?" The woman asked
Booth refrained from answering and the woman nodded "Didn't think so. You need protection out here. Both physically and sexually. You need to show others you're the boss. Or else you might as well kill yourself right away." She said looking back to Brennan
The girl narrowed her eyes "What are the two bones located in your forearm called?" she asked
"The radius and the ulna," Brennan answered easily
"Flesh or Bone?" the woman asked quickly after that
"For what?" Brennan asked confused
"Which do you prefer?"
"Bones," Brennan said
"Forensic Anthropologist," the woman said stepping back
The guys looked at her "Huh?"
The woman ran her hands through her hair and sighed "She looks at dead people bones." He said
The guys nodded "Oh."
"K so she's a bone lady?" The tall and skinny guy asked
The girl glared at him "You don't even know who she is do you?"
"No."
"Wow Lance," the woman said
"What?" Lance asked
"This is Dr. Temperance Brennan, world renowned Forensic Anthropologist and bestselling author. That is Special Agent Seeley Booth, her partner." The woman said
The guy with the piercings shrugged "How can you know that?" he asked
"Because SEMORE I actually read, when I can. I've read her books before. She's good. You can trust her. Don't mess with her, and her protective partner might not shoot you," she said turning her back and walking away
"Hey!" the guy with the piercings said "My name isn't Semore anymore. Its Poison," he said grabbing her arm
The girl turned around her hair striking his face. She thrust her palm into his throat and thrust him into the wall "I told you to NEVER touch me again!" she hissed "You got it?"
The guy nodded "Yes, Yes." He quivered
She let her hand go "Good. Now get out of here." She hissed
The guy fell and all three guys ran off "Damn Lex!" they screamed streaking down the street
"So your name is Lex?" Brennan asked
The woman turned her head "My name is Alexis. But they call me Lexi, or Lex. They don't have enough brain cells to comprehend any word longer than 4 letters." She huffed pulled herself onto the bars of the building to sit on them "Sorry for the interrogation and the inspection." She said
Brennan nodded "No harm," she said
Booth touched Brennan's shoulder and Brennan came to her senses and held over the picture
"Do you know these two?" Brennan asked
Alexis nodded "Dylan and Kelly. Cute couple. They only couple, that was serious around these parts."
Booth and Brennan looked at each other "How do you figure?" Booth asked
"Well, they unlike everyone else around here, where more then just sex. They were real. It was obvious. Their eyes lit up every time they touched, and they would sit and watch the sunset, every night. Dylan would sit with his back too one of these walls and Kelly would be in his lap, once they fell asleep like that. It was adorable," Alexis said "I heard about his death. It's a shame." She said
Booth looked at Brennan waiting for some sort of scientific lecture about the 'eyes lighting up with the others touch' but she said nothing
"Did you know Kelly personally?" Brennan asked
Alexis nodded "Yeah, one of my best friends. One of my only friends. These are dangerous parts. I have seen kids killed in their sleep for something as stupid as cigs."
Brennan looked confused and Booth whispered "cigarettes" in her ear
"She was like my sister. I protected her when Dylan wasn't here. Alex too. They were the only family I had," Alexis said her hand reaching for her shoulder and wincing as she moved it
"Shoulder problems?" Booth asked
"Not really," Alexis said quickly bringing her hands to her side
"Actually it is 'really'. Your muscles are tightened along your back suggesting an increase in pain," Brennan said pointing out the muscles
Alexis laughed and pulled the sleeve of her shoulder down to show a large cut mark, full of puss and bleeding "There enough?" she said pulling the sleeve back over it
Booth and Brennan stood aghast "What is that from?" they both asked
"Do the math. Why do you think I have a gun, along with 4 other knifes on me. We get in fights. I was just stupid and stepped into a wrong position." Alexis said
"Who were you protecting?" Brennan asked
"How do you know I was protecting someone?" she asked with as much curiosity
"You say Kelly and Alex were your family, and you don't seem one to purposely get into fights, over stupid things like sticks," Brennan said
"Cigs, Bones, Cigs," Booth said
"Bones?" Alexis asked "Pet name, how cute."
Booth looked down, slightly blushing and Alexis laughed "Let me guess; only Boothie over here can call you that?"
Brennan nodded "He does it just to annoy me."
Alexis nodded "uh-huh" she said
"Ok back to the question. Who were you protecting?" Booth asked
"Alex and Kelly," Alexis said
"Why were they in a fight?" Booth asked
"Kelly always seemed to be with Alex or Dylan. Some of the guys around her find that as dissertation. You are either one of us, or you aren't. If you were and you leave, but then try to be one of us again, it doesn't go down well," she said
Brennan and Booth nodded and looked at each other, both thinking how hard these kids have it
"How old are you?" Brennan asked
"19."
"Only 19!?" they both exclaimed
Alexis nodded "I was thrown out here when I was only 10. But that's another story in it's own. Knowing the normal act of an anthropologist, I have some information you might like to see."
Booth tilted his head "What is that?" Brennan then asked
Alexis smiled and jumped from the bars "Follow me," she said and walked down the street.
Booth and Bones followed, Booth's gun still in hand as he looked behind him constantly
Alexis looked back "Relax, no one will hurt you. If you're with me, you'll be ok."
"Why is that?" Brennan asked
"If you have lived here as long as I have, people seem to stick to you, more than others," Alexis said as she jumped onto the ledge of one building and walked along the side, she stopped and pointed down "This is Dylan's memorial. We make one whenever someone we care about dies."
Brennan knelt down and then looked up "Thank you," she said
Alexis nodded "No problem"
Booth nodded his thanks and called in the FBI forensic team, when he closed the phone he said "We are going to search the warehouse," he told Bones
Alexis nodded "Ok. Be careful." She said
Brennan smiled and nodded and looked up "Tell them to start from the 5th floor." She said
"Why?" Booth asked
"Because its exactly 50.6 feet tall," Alexis said with a smile before she jumped over the rails and put two fingers to her forehead as to salute and walked off.
Brennan smiled and looked to Booth "She's right. It's the approximate height that Dylan fell from."
Booth smiled and nodded "Alright." He said and turned to see Alexis has disappeared
