"Agent Scully, I think that you should come over here and get a good look at this," said her partner, Agent Foster.

"What is it, Agent Foster?" she asked. She walked toward Agent Foster's desk and found him looking at photographs. When she got to his desk, he looked up at her with this sympathetic look on his face. He motioned for her to look at the pictures.

Agent Scully could not believe her eyes. Scully saw blood everywhere. The grass around the victim was smeared with it everywhere, and it changed the color of the grass to be a dark brown color. The victims eyes were still open and had this innocent look to them, as if she did not know what was happening to her when she died. Her hair was long, beautiful, golden locks. The body was lying on it's stomach; the head was decapitated. Scully froze looking at the picture. "Who could do this to a little girl," she thought to herself.

"Is this a case, Agent Foster?" she asked. Her hands got icy cold as she held the picture in her hand.

"This is not just a case, Agent Scully, it is our case and five other agents working on it. Three from our bureau and two are coming in from elsewhere. Apparently the bureau couldn't spare anymore right now, you know - with all the terrorist threats and stuff, so Headquarters is sending out two of their people from Violent Crimes. Then we will have seven people working on the case, which is about the smallest number of agents to be equipt with for a case like this," Foster explained.

"Do you know who the agents from D.C. are?" Scully inquired. She looked directly into his large, brown eyes in hopes that she would get an answer. The one thing that she admired most about her partner was how honest he was. Scully could ask him anything, and she knew that he would always answer as truthfully as he knew how. This was something new for her, and something that she appreciated. Although Fox Mulder was always truthful to her, he was not always truthful to the people around him. This was a quality that she appreciated in her new partner.

"No, I don't," he said, "But Section Chief Anderson said that they will be here by five o' clock tonight."
