(Ash p.o.v)

I ended up going to Hollings place with Kenton and Temperance, and I kinda wish I didn't.
"FBI! Go, go! Show yourself! Clear!" An Agent exclaimed as they kicked the door open and we all made our way in.
"He took off." Kenton stated.
"He's got like half n hour of a head start, at least." I told as Temperance found a map in a drawer she checked.
"He marked the same part of town we found the other victim." She told.
"He's going after someone else." Kenton told before talking to the Swat Team that was with us. "I want all this bagged."
"Right, let's go." She told before her phone began to ring. "Brennan....And it's definitely one of Hollings keys?.....Good work....I'll be fine, Zack. Any luck with the bullet?"
"Tell Bone Boy I say hi and should be back soon in time for our doctor who marathon. We are watching all of the first season again including the Christmas special to prepare us for David Tennant's season to come." I explained.
"Ashley says she should be back soon, Zack..... he says he can't wait." She told before Kenton walked up behind us.
"Do you want to go back to the lab until we get any other news? It will be safer there." He stated.
"Actually Zack, I'll see you in a few minutes. And Ashley will be back sooner for the marathon." She stated.
'Awesome. Actually can't wait for this.'

I was sitting in the back like usual, and Kenton was driving with Temperance next to him in the front. Something him and Seeley shared however was the fact they both would talk on the phone as they drove.
'This really doesn't seem safe.'
"Yeah? Okay, make sure there is backup." He told before hanging up and began to talk to Temperance. "They spotted someone taking a woman into those old abandoned buildings off Hunter Boulevard. I'll drop you both off at the lab."
"No, I'm coming." Temperance argued.
"I've got time. Zack will wait for me." I added.
"Booth said it was pointless to argue." Kenton told.
"He is a smart man, Booth. I'll just call Zack." She told grabbing her phone and began to dial his number. "I think I know how to complete the bullet. Even if we only have one side if we can approximate the spin as it was fired."
As she began to bring her phone up to her ear, Kenton suddenly levelled a gun on her and knocked the phone from her hand.
"You really are the best. It's too bad..." he told.
'Oh fuck!'

We held our hands in the air as Kenton began to push us further into the abandoned warehouse as hun point.
"There are certain crimes you just got to let slide. A death like Cugini's, it's an internal issue, doesn't affect anyone else." Kenton explained.
"This just makes me hate fed more." I stated.
"You killed Cugini?" Temperance questioned.
"You don't get rich working for the FBI. When I was undercover the Romano's were very good to me. When you accept their generosity; you have no choice but to do what they ask." He stated.
"You actually do have a choice, when you are no longer undercover." I told making him place the gun against my back, telling me to shut up.
'I'm so sorry Zack, I won't be able to make it to the marathon.'
"Is that how you live with yourself if you take choice out of the equation?" Temperance questioned
"It's no different then Booth taking out someone from the other side when he was a sniper in the Gulf." He stated.
"It was his job." I argued.
"That was a war. His actions saved lives." Temperance added before we entered a room, and we saw the dogs on metal chains along the walls.
'Didn't think this would be how I died.... Actually surprised I lived this long, especially considering the fact I'm a hunter/ex-hunter.'
"You don't think getting rid of Cugini ended a street war?" Kenton questioned.
"It was a start honestly."
"So our death will be justified now?" Temperance questioned since I at this point figured death was the only out now.
'Wow, I feel 19 all over again. What fun that was. At least I'll die this time.'
"The Bureau keeps a shell from every weapon it issues. You match that slug it points to my weapon and I go down and the Romano's make sure I don't talk." Kenton explained.
"Maybe don't use your weapon from your job when doing illegal shit. That's like logic 101." I stated.
"Well at least then we are dying for a good reason." Temperance told.

I took a glance towards Temperance to see the look she had. She quickly elbowed him in the stomach causing him to move back.
'Oh guess we are fighting this. M'kay.'
She kicked his hand, knocking his gun to the floor. He rushed towards us making me dodge his arm and punch him in the gallbladder as he rushed past, before Temperance kicked him backwards knocking him to the floor. We tried to make a run for it, only for hun to get back up quicker then we expected him to and grab us from behind. Temperance and me ducked and and swinger out of his grip, before we both kicked him again at the same time. I quickly hit him in the throat to make it hard for him to breath if I did it correctly, before Temperance head butted him again, which knocked him over the top of an old table. We saw the gun on the floor, making me go grab it only for him to pull me to the ground. Taking the chance, Temperance did a shoulder roll, grabbing the gun as she rolled over it. Kenton was quick to get behind her as she got up and they both began to wrestle for the gun, which ended with her being forced to the ground. I bit his thigh distracting him as he kicked me in the spot my gallbladder would be, mirroring how I punched him in the same spot. While he was distracted Temperance kicked him in the knee, making him fall down again and she quickly wrapped her legs around him, throwing him flat on the ground.
'God that was a strong kick.'
He attempted to get back up, only for us both to kick him before Temperance wrapped her legs around his neck to choke him. He quickly reached for the gun before I could and pistol whipped Temperance, knocking her out before pointing it to me, causing me to throw my hands up in surrender.
'Welp. I'm back to accepting death. Sorry fam and loved ones.... But I'm about to die.'
