The door creaks loudly as a man enters an old abandoned building. He steps
inside, the floor creaking as he puts his weight on to it. The building is
a mess, covered in scraps of junk and rust everywhere. The expression on
the man's face seems to match the room perfectly, an angry frown and eyes
screaming in fury. His messy long brown hair frames his face, and he
brushes it back with a snarl. The girl is screaming again. He doesn't like
it when she screams, he fears someone will hear. As he starts to push open
another door to the small room the girl is in, her high pitch screeching
begins again. "Knock it off!" He snaps, but she doesn't stop. As he enters
the room he begins to understand why. A bright white light shines in from
the single small window in the room. The girl's face was fixed in an
expression of terror, and her eyes plaster to the window. Her clothes and
hair a mess, and the ropes still held her to the chair tightly. But then
the man notices something wrong. The chair is hovering slightly off the
ground and slowly moving towards the window. "What the-" The man gasps, but
suddenly the screeching is being replaced by another even louder and more
high pitch noise. The man screams in pain, and his hands go to his ears to
try and protect them, but the sound fills his head, and an immense pain
begins to spread through his body. He gets in one last scream before his
body burst into flame. And then, mere seconds later, the light is gone. But
so was the girl.
Scully walked into the cold basement office seeing Mulder in his
chair facing the "I want to believe" poster. "Rene Kailey Wyatt." He says
as the chair swivels to face Scully. ".was abducted from her house Tuesday
evening." He tosses the manila folder on the desk. Scully picks it up,
staring at Mulder knowing what he was about to say by the expression on his
face, which she had become well aware of. She glances down and starts
reading the case. "The girl has a." he continues but is interrupted
abruptly by Scully's remarks. "Mulder. this isn't even an x-file. The
report says that the police found traces of chloroform. This is a
kidnapping, why are we even on this case?" She closes the folder and stares
at Mulder waiting for a reply. "She has a record." Scully lets out a sigh
of annoyance, "of what Mulder?" "Abductee clinics, it's like alcoholics
anonymous, but only abductee anonymous." Replies Mulder. "really, Mulder,
well I think it has no connection" Mulder rises from his seat grabs his
long black trench coat and puts it on and adjusts his tie. "Scully, ever
heard of a hunch" he says as he passes Scully grabbing the case folder and
going out the door. "Wait, where are you going? Mulder, Mulder! Mul-"
Scully discontinues her repetitive yelling and lets out a sigh as she sees
Mulder's face vanish by the elevator doors closing.
Mulder pushes open the door and an array of posters and news articles
of UFO sighting fill his sight. He walks in and stares around at the walls.
"This could be my office" he says under his breath realizing that Scully
isn't there to hear his comment. He walks up to the counter and addresses
the woman in the chair, "Excuse me, I'm with the Federal Bureau of
Investigation." He takes out his badge and flips it open and then puts in
back in his pocket. "Can I speak with Terri Kastley?" "Follow me" she
replied, She takes him down a narrow passage way with a door at the end.
She opens the door slightly and mutters words to the man, who quickly grabs
his papers and shoves them in his desk. The woman moves aside symbolizing
that he can enter. He walks in and the man sitting at the desk looks
nervous, his scruffy look on his face shows that he hadn't had much sleep,
his leg twitches under his desk, but when he sees who is there he stops and
lets out a sigh of relief. Mulder addresses him. "Terri Kastley?" the man
nods and Mulder continues, "Agent Mulder. I have a few questions to ask you
about one of the girls that had many visits here." Mulder reaches into his
pocket and takes out a folded picture. He opens it and lays it on Terri's
desk. "Her name is Rene Wyatt. Do you know who I am talking about?" The man
agrees and Mulder asks his first question, "Did she tell you anything about
the abduction? What did you talk about?" "She couldn't remember anything, I
just comforted her and explained to her that it will be okay, that is what
we basically do here, so the people can tell us and they won't look crazy."
"But she has been abducted many times , she had to have sai-" Mulder was
cut off by the ringing of his cell phone, he raises his finger indicating
that he would be just a minute. He picks up his phone and turns around as
someone would for privacy even though there is none and answers it,
"Mulder." "Hey Mulder it's me" The voice in the phone comes from Scully who
is in her car in front of Rene Wyatt's house. "Where are you Scully?" "You
ran off to quickly so I couldn't tell you, I'm in Rene's neighborhood,
talking to her neighbors." "So, you decided to do the case" Mulder has a
little smile on his face he continues, "You know my hunches are always
right." "Yeah well Mulder, their not. Her neighbor's are saying they saw a
car leave her residence around the same time she was abducted. I noticed
they had a security camera on my drive in so I went to the security office
and got the license plate of the kidnapper, I think we should check this
out." "Well Scully maybe you have proved me wrong for once." Mulder says in
a sarcastic voice, knowing that Rene's abduction record has relevance to
this case. "Check out where that car was seen last and the owner and call
me back and we will meet there." "Already done Mulder, meet me at Apple
bee's on 34th street." Mulder has a slight laugh, "I didn't know you were
that desperate to go on a date with me. I'll see you there in 15 minutes."
Scully gets annoyed but also has a little laugh and has a little fun also,
"Okay Mulder, I'll wear what I wore last night, bye." As Mulder hangs up
you could see his face light up in smile. He turns back around "Sorry I
have to cut his short but thanks for your cooperation." Mulder turns
around and reaches into his pocket and take out a sun flower seed. The man
answers back, "You have a hot date?" Mulder replies sarcastically "Heh,
Very hot." Mulder takes a bit of the seed and tosses the shell into the
garbage pale and it lands on the cover of an empty pack or 'Morley'
cigarettes.
Scully Drives up in front of apple bee's and looks around for Mulder.
She sits in her car twiddling her thumbs on the stirring wheel. She reaches
to go put the radio on and sees 3 police cars and an ambulance rush by. She
watches them pull into a parking lot of what it looks like an old abandoned
hotel. Scully Waits for another 5 minutes for Mulder's arrival and then
quickly drives away and into the hotel's parking lot. Very curiously she
gets out of the car and walks up to the police man standing in front of his
car. He turns around and goes up to her and pushes her the opposite way,
"Excuse me mam, but this is a crime scene you'll have to leave the
premises." Scully, while reaching into her pocket to retrieve her FBI ID
says "I'm with the FBI" She opens her ID and the police man inspects it and
she puts it away. "What happened here?" Scully remarks. The policeman
explains, " A few kids where hanging out in this building playing with
their guitars and all that noise made the floor cave in, in the room next
them. They went to go see what happened and they saw a dead body." "When
did this happen, are the kids still here?" Scully questions. "It took place
this morning." A fellow police office walks up to him and says "The Kids
aren't there, I think they just got scared and went home, but we have all
their names. We are bringing the body to the lab." After Scully overhears
them she sees the people rush out with a body under the cover and put it in
the ambulance. Scully turns back around to the officer and ask, "I'm also a
medical doctor, can I see the victim's body and ID It.?" The offices
replies, "Sure, Just go to the lab, but why would you want to?" "I am
working on a case, and this might be connected." Scully replies as she sees
the ambulance leaving the lot and Mulder's car pulling in. As Mulder parks
Scully walks up to the car. Mulder looks out the window and sees Scully. He
opens the door and comes out. Scully says, "Mulder they found a body in
this building, and I think its Rene's." Scully and Mulder start walking
toward the building and Mulder speaks, "I think you are right, I'm going to
go and look for fingerprints in the building and see if we can find the
killer's, I need you to ID the body and se if it's the girl's" "I know that
Mulder, but before I go, what did you find out at the 'Abductee clinic'?",
Scully says with distaste. "Nothing really, except that he's lying and he
knows stuff about Rene." Says Mulder as they walk closer to the building.
"Do you think that he kidnapped Rene?" Scully questions, as they reach the
building and stop. "No, but after I check this place out I might change my
mind." Mulder replies. "Ok Mulder I'll see you tomorrow." She says after
she turns around and heads to her car.
The door opens and Scully enters the lab. The body lay on top of the
table with a cover and autopsy utensils saying next to it. Scully With her
lab coat and hair net on puts on her gloves. She sets up her tape recorder
"Okay Body lets see how you died." She says as she covers her mouth with a
mask and presses record. She lifts up the cover and sees the body. It has
burn marks everywhere, and is covered with blood and barely looks human.
The body doesn't at all look like a 19 year old girl. Scully continues her
autopsy and sends in teeth impressions to determine the ID of the body.
Mulder sits at his desk reading the words on the papers he has in
front of him. His face is glues to the paper as if he is in deep thought.
Scully enters the office. "Hey Mulder, I didn't get the ID of the body but
I'm sure it's not Rene." Mulder shakes his head as if he just got out of a
trance and looks up at Scully and leans back in his chair and puts his
hands behind his head "I already know that Scully, the papers came this
morning." "What did they say, let me see them?" Scully says. Mulder nudges
his head in the direction of the papers on the desk and says "I got the
fingerprint results back." Scully shuffles through the papers and picks up
both files. She looks down at the autopsy results first, "Taylor
McGaughin... who is this, maybe this doesn't have to do with the case at
all." Scully exclaimed. "That's what I thought at first until I saw whose
fingerprints where in the room." Mulder replies. "Rene Wyatt." Scully's
face is puzzled. "If this Taylor guy kidnapped her, and he is dead, then
where is Rene," Scully states as a rhetorical question as she figures this
out in her head. Mulder leans forward and says "Want to hear my theory?"
Scully just gives him a stare. "Okay, this is what I have so far, you were
right on how Taylor kidnapped Rene, but then Rene was abducted again in
that old building and they killed Taylor, you yourself saw the burn marks
on this body, we have seen this before and you know what is." Mulder looks
at Sully waiting for a reply. "Mulder I don't believe this..." She says in
annoyance. "Aliens didn't kill him, and what we have dealt with before was
an acid that burns the victim. And did you search the building for Rene's
body anywhere else?" Mulder looks at her and says "No, they wouldn't let
me. They said it was too dangerous." Scully puts the files on Mulder's
desk, "Really Mulder, I think we should go now again and try, what do you
say?" Mulder gets up and they both walk out the room and Mulder locks the
door as they leave.
They arrive at the old abandoned hotel and get out of the car. They
see other cars there around them. Scully, with the wind blowing her coat
and her short orange hair in front of her face, closes her door. They enter
the building and pass up the room, there is a police officer standing in
the way from going up stairs. "I'm sorry you aren't allowed in here."
Scully and Mulder take out their badges and tell the man they are with the
FBI. The officer continues. "Still, it's very dangerous." Mulder looks at
Scully in a 'told you so' manner. Scully looks at the police office and
says "It is very important that we go up there and check out the building.
We will be careful" Scully discontinues after she sees a man start to come
down the stairs. "Who is that, why is he up there!" Scully demands. The
Figure turns around and head back up the stairs. Mulder yells out and
pushes through the officer and reaches for his gun. "Come back!" The
officer doesn't do anything more he just lets them pass by. Scully follows
Mulder up and steps on a cigarette. Mulder searches the area and a man
comes out of the shadow in the corner of a room. The face of the man
appears it is a kid. "I... I'm sor.. Sorry" the kid stutters. Mulder and
Scully out away their weapons, "what are you doing here" Scully asks. "I...
I. Just wa... wanted to see what hap...happened, I will g...go now." He
walks past Mulder and Scully and goes down the stairs. Mulder and Scully go
up another flight of stairs to the 4th floor and then the 5th to continue
their search. Back on the 3rd floor voices come out of a room that was not
searched. "The body isn't here! Damnit! And Mulder is working on the case"
The man who is smoking exclaims. The other man says with a grin on his
face, "Mulder won't find out what happened, and if he does he will have no
proof, no evidence." "What if the girl comes back, they will have proof
then" Says the smoking man as he moves the cigarette away from his mouth.
"Well then we'll just do it again, but this time with some one more
experienced, like Alex. The two men exit the building. Scully and Mulder
return back to the third floor and finish their search. "So Mulder, now
what, huh..." Scully says as she sees Mulder reach down and pick up a
cigarette. "It's fresh!" He throws the cigarette on the floor in anger and
runs outside. Scully follows. Mulder looks around, "The cars are gone! The
cigarette smoking man was here!" Mulder yells to Scully. Scully says, "They
did this!? Why, Mulder?" Mulder walks to the car and Scully follows they
get in and he starts driving. And Mulder replies, "I'm not quite sure but
I think know someone who does." "Where are we going?" Scully questions. "To
the Abductee Clinic."
Their car pulls into the parking lot, Mulder and Scully run out of the car
into the building. Mulder doesn't stop when the lady at the desk welcomes
him, he rushes into Terri Kastley's office and grabs him and puts him up
against the wall "What did you do to Rene, What did you tell the Cigarette
Smoking Man?!" Mulder yells. Scully comes rushing into the office and
demands Mulder to stop. "No Scully. Now tell me what you said. Terri
Gasping to breath in fear says, "Ok, okay, I'll tell you, just let me
down." Mulder puts moves back. Terri adjusts his shirt, "I just told them
what she told me, nothing more." Scully remarks "Do you know that she
missing and the Kidnapper is dead." "No, I had nothing to do with that, all
I told them was what she told me and they told me not to tell anyone else.
Mulder yells to him "Tell me!" The man starts to talk "She came to me and
told me." Before he could say a bullet punctured his heart. Mulder turns
around and sees a figure wearing all black. Scully runs to Terri to try to
stop the bleeding and help him. Mulder runs after the man, which it appears
to him to be Alex Krychek. Mulder runs to the door but it is locked from
the outside. He takes out his gun and shoots the look. Mulder kicks the
door open and yells "Krychek!" He looks around but no one is there. He
continues to search the premises but he finds nothing. An ambulance pulls
up to the clinic and takes Terri. Mulder goes to Scully, "He is gone, I
think that was Krychek." Mulder and Scully get in the car, Scully reassures
Mulder "We can still prove this we have all the evidence. We just need to
know where the girl is." Mulder replies, "She is gone and if she comes back
they will kill her."
They both enter the office. Mulder goes to his desk and looks for the
files. "What's the matter Mulder?" Scully asks. Mulder continues his search
then replies, "They are gone! The files on this case, the autopsy report
everything!" Scully picks up the phone quickly and calls the lab center.
Scully talks on the phone and then hangs up. Scully has a look in her eyes
that convey such emotion. Mulder stares at her, "What?" Scully remarks in a
low voice, "It's gone." Her voice gets louder, "Mulder, the body is gone."
Mulder with such agitation says "They can't do this" he slams his hand onto
the table.
At her house Scully finishes typing her field report. ...He also
thinks the reason 'The Cigarette Smoking man' and the other members of that
group, wanted Rene dead was because of what she remembered from her
abductions. Those are Mulder's thoughts on this case. Mine on the other
hand aren't conclusive. I am sure that Taylor McGaughin kidnapped Rene
Wyatt because of the security camera tracing his car out her premises and
sighting of his car around the old hotel building. Rene's finger prints
were found in that building along with Taylor's corpse. In which both of
the evidence has seemed to disappear (missing or stolen). Rene Wyatt is
still missing and until she is found or spotted, further investigation on
this case has been closed because of the lack of evidence.
