Xfiles! AU When the FBI decides to reassigns Bennet to a small office he comes face to face with an old rival from his days at the FBI academy-Nea Campbell.

He grumbled a little under her breath remember that God forsaken conversation about fairy tales he had been forced to take part in. He stood in line for TSA's safety checks. Just because you were an FBI agent didn't mean you were exempt from the dreaded pat down of another agent to make sure you weren't planning some funny business. He sighed looking up; only to see Nea freaking Campbell, arrive at the very back of the check line. The purple haired man looked up to see Bennet far in front of him, only to have Bennet give him a snide smile, quickly turning away./span/p
