i posted this on fanfic.net but i'll post the first couple of chapters here and if you like it i'll carry on

Chapter 1 – awakening –

Temperance Breanans eyes flickered open.

“Where am I?” she groaned

Looking around she realized that she was lying sprawled out on her back in an alleyway. But how had she gotten there?

Tempe’s head was throbbing and there was an odd taste in the back of her mouth, it seemed strangely familiar but she could worry about that later for the moment she needed to figure out where she was and how she was going to get home. She would worry about last night when she had the time.

Spotting her phone lying near to her on the ground she rolled over and grabbed it pondering who to call.

I can’t call booth he would want an answer and I haven’t got one right now .I’ll have to call Ange but first I need a cover story , I can’t tell them until I know what happened.

Chapter 2 - lies –

It was a long time before Angela Montenegro picked up; Tempe had almost given up hope.

“Hello who is this?”

“Hey Ange it’s me Tempe”

“Sweetie is something wrong? You do know its only 6:22am? We don’t have work today remember.”

“Sorry for waking you Ange but can you come and pick me up please?”

6:22am that means I must have been here all night.

Ange noticed the pleading note in her friend’s voice. She must have paused for longer than she thought.

“Ange please I’ll explain when you get here.”

Ange couldn’t remember hearing Tempe like this before, she was normally so sure of herself.

“Ok sweetie but where is here?”

Glancing across the road Tempe saw a run down motel.

That will have to do.

“The Gilding on 51st street. I’ll wait for you outside.”

“Ok sweetie I’ll se you in ten minutes.”

Tempe crossed the street to stand outside the motel. She watched the road for Ange’s car. After roughly five minuets had elapsed a man passed her on the other side of the street, one look at him and last nights events came flooding back.

Chapter 3 – Tempe’s flashback –

Standing at the bar with Ange Tempe decided it was time to go, Ange was chatting up cute guys as usual but Tempe wasn’t in the mood.

“Ange thanks for bringing me out tonight, I’m not feeling too good so I’m going to get a taxi home.”

“Aww sweetie you poor thing. Do you want me to walk with you to the cab office?”

“No thanks Ange it won’t take me 5 minutes to get there.”

“Take care.”

“You too.”

As she rounded a corner Tempe was grabbed from behind and a needle inserted into her arm. She passed out instantly.

For the next hour Tempe drifted in and out of consciousness. Thoughts running through her head before the darkness reclaimed her.

Where am I?

Why am I here?

why is there a man watching me?
