Disclaimer:
Yea, got to get this out of the way. I don't own the X-Files or anything of 1013 productions or Fox at all, not even a few shares. I do not make money from this and do this for fun 'cause I am bored when not at work and this keeps me out of trouble, or so we hope.
Summary:
Years after Mulder and Scully are no longer on the X-Files a young teen hold the keys to the future even if he does not know it. Lives will change and he will embark on a journey he never hoped he would ever have to and come face to face with a past that he would much rather leave buried.

September, 2014, Fort Collins Colorado:
Robert Stuart Blackstone was making his way on the back loop of the bike path by the Pouder River on the last leg of his afternoon run. He was like most teen boys still caught halfway between boy and man, though it was clear he had a growth spurt recently. He had short brown hair and though his eyes at the moment were covered by black shades they were an intense blue. He was clad in a white tee shirt that said "I Love Okinawa" in bright blue lettering (a gift from his aunt who lived in Japan and worked for the Navy there), orange shorts and bright neon yellow and blue Nikes.
He was a smart young man, and well educated, at school and at home. Though he had a large music collection on his ipod courtesy of his parents, he did not have it on his run. His sensi would kick his butt for that and rightly so, he had to be aware of his surroundings at all times. He had been in karate since he was a young boy along with piano lessons, and firearms training, his parents had not even let him enroll in sports until he ended up in High School and looking back he did have an advantage as his sport was karate now and he had one tournament win under his belt. That was not as much as his annoying baby brother though who had five and his sister who had six, he was more interested in learning and reading and so did not spend as much time on his karate as they did.
He slowed as he saw a man at the end of this part of the trail clad in a suit waiting for him. He grinned and ran up to him, this was his sensi, and though he stood out because he always wore a three piece suit and tie when not in the dojo, he was as kind and good a man as one could be. Well if he were fully human that is, for Evan Totowa was not human and never had been. He was what was called an Alien Bounty Hunter and had taken this disguise to watch over the young Blackstone. For Robert was not who everyone thought he was and Robert and his family did not want anyone to find that out. All anyone needed to know is that he was adopted, his bio-mom had died a year after giving birth to him but not before giving him to her sister to raise.
"You are getting faster, this is good, then you are growing up so well." Totowa said.
"It felt great, must be the new shoes." Robert (or Rob as he liked to be called) said grinning, "so how fast?"
"One minute faster since I tested you last month." Totowa replied.
"You owe me an iTunes card then!" Rob said laughing.
"Run back, then we will talk." Totowa said trying to look annoyed but failing.
Rob ran the half mile to his house, just off of Trailridge Road, a modern home with the outside in a pastel green (that the family hated but could not change due to the HOA) and up to his room. Twenty minutes later he was showered and changed into a pair of jeans and a Beatles Tee shirt. Totowa was waiting downstairs looking a bit worried and Rob knew it had to do with him. His parents kept no secrets from him, he knew who his real parents were and had no desire to connect to them at all, well maybe his mom, but his dad? No, what that side of his "family" did, well they nearly destroyed the world and he wanted no part of that. His father was Les Paul Blackstone, his mother Judy Raven Blackstone formerly Graves and that was that.
"It's happened, they have found out." Rob said.
"No but there are FBI in Ft. Collins, you remember how Donald Stone was gone for all those months and came back claiming aliens took him?" Totowa asked.
"Yea, I remember that, and he was the last person I would think would say something like that." Rob replied, "but the evidence was there."
"Yes, well he was shot in Cheyenne and the cover-up was bad." Totowa replied.
"And it points to dad right?" Rob said.
"Did, your dad has enemies, though why a software engineer with a company that provides antivirus software would gain enemies." Totowa replied, "it's clear it was a cover-up and now your dad has to field through that mess."
"He was targeted because of how outspoken he is about ridding the world of terrorists and calling them out by name, they don't like that very much." Rob said.
Before they could continue their talk the doorbell rang and Rob went to answer it. Totowa took out his gimlet and hid, he had an idea who was at the door, and he was not pleased at this turn of events. The man here now could threaten everything he was working towards, the boy here held the key, and he cared for Rob, really did and he would die to protect him. Even from who was at the door now. Rob answered the door and saw two middle aged people at the door. One was a woman clad in a business suit her red hair tied back from her face. It was the man with her that turn his blood cold, from his brown hair and hazel eyes to the suit he wore Rob hated him.
"My God Dana it's him." The man, Fox Mulder said.
"Fox, I don't know if we should…" Dana Scully started to say.
"You are damn right!" Rob snarled, "ma'am I would not mind you here, but him, no, get the hell off my property."
"Look we are not here to hurt you…"
"Oh don't try that with me Mulder!" Rob spat, "I know all about you, your family and what they tried to do the world, the lies, and everything!"
"We just want to talk." Scully said, "please, I believe I am…"
"No, not here, not ever, ma'am thank you for what you did, really thank you, but please leave." Rob said.
"We just want to talk." Mulder said.
"Sir may I remind you that you are in Colorado and we have what's called a make my day law?" Rob said, "unless you have a warrant you leave or die, your choice!"
With that Robert slammed the door in their face and left both of them standing on the porch.

Yes, yes I am aware of who it was said who adopted William, but that could be a cover. So here things are different. He is safe where he is, and hates his bio-dad, the Mulders had a hand in whatever went down with the syndicate and everything about the aliens. We do know that much, and I think it was both sides of the family of Fox Mulder and Robert knows it.
Anyway, please review!
