Buffy,
First of all, Merry Christmas, Happy Winter Solstice, and Happy Hanukkah.
Secondly, Zack sends Season's Greetings to Dawn.

Now for the real reason for this email. I won't be able to make it to Vegas for the holidays as I am currently quarantined in the lab. It is a rather funny story and I had to write to you to explain.

It all started at about 6pm, when Agent Booth had a body brought in. The company Christmas party was in full swing. Dr. Jack Hodgins went to the party but Crystal from accounting was chasing him so he brought some eggnog back to the lab. He was drinking it next to Zack when Zack cut into the bones. Unfortunately it was contaminated with Valley Fever spores. Hodgins inhaled them and probably exhaled them all over the rest of us so here we are quarantined until sometime on Christmas Day. Dr. Goodman, Hodgins, Zack, Booth, Dr. Brennan, Angela and I are all here together. I haven't been a part of such a strange group of people for a spontaneous sleepover since your twenty-first birthday. Remember that? When Dawn made that unfortunate wish? The next couple of days promise to be equally interesting.

Angela wants Dr. Brennan and I to help her make Christmas for the others. I had to remind her that 'Hello, Jewish'. So I'm off the hook. Dr. Brennan doesn't seem to be much for Christmas either. She is however determined to solve the mystery of the body that Booth brought in. I'll do what I can but I'm not much help. The body was found in a sealed fallout shelter with a bullet in the head. It seemed a straight forward suicide but Dr. Brennan said it wasn't so there is a mystery to solve. So think of me stuck here with a bunch of scientists for a few days as you and the Scoobies and slayers celebrate.

Willow.
