"OK I am finally finished thank god…I thought I would never finish ok now let's see what I did. I dusted, vacuumed, polished, folded his blankets…well the new ones I got his old ones we all worn out. But I still kept them just in case. The shelves are stock the bed is made the room is spotless…basically it's a new apartment though I did buy stuff that's like Mulder's stuff if not the exact same. Alright now it's time to make dinner. Let's see…um we could have chicken parmesan, Alfredo chicken…spaghetti and meatballs… 'She giggled' wow I need to stop hanging out with the guys….OH I KNOW!!

One Hour and Fifteen Minutes later.
"Ok so Fox should be home soon he said that this would be coming around five-thirty to six o'clock."
'Sound of door being unlocked.'
"Hey." Mulder said with a obvious fake smile on his face.
"Fox what's wrong did something happen to Dana…wasn't she supposed to come back with you? Did she get hurt? Fox you have to tell me Fox please where is she!" Rebecca yelled frantically.
"I am right behind Mulder Becca don't worry I am fine." Said Scully, with the same obviously fake smile.
"Really then tell me why does it look like you to just broke up or like getting divorce by force…well ya I thought so…I can't believe I thought this place would be better than Minnesota…but no its just has bad or hell I think it's worse at least my mom and dad had admitted they loved each other until you two it's obvious that Fox loves you Dana…especially when he get freaked out when u go one a date or when someone tries to take you away from him or how he gets all possessive or when you could get hurt he is always there…and Fox same for you too Dana would always get possessive when Diana came around that's why she always acted so funny or when it came to you I mean come on I know it's against regulations but seriously you two love each other now just admit to yourselves and each other and you too can finally get together so Fox shuts up and so Dana will stop moping around and getting jealous every five seconds! I mean come one she gets jealous every time I call you Fox…and when we first met in your office I thought she was going to have steam coming out of her head…but if you two can't grow up and make a stand how will either of you find the truth if you won't even admit your own truths!" Yelled Rebecca before she slammed the door and ran out.
"Um…what was that?" Asked Scully even though she knew what it was. Kids always have an intuition when it came to adults fighting and when there is a problem and even though Becca is eighteen she still is a kid.
"Scully…she is right…but now is not the time we need to go get her who knows what kind of trouble that girl will get into…and I couldn't bear to lose another person important to me." Mulder turned away from Scully and walked out the door getting ready to go after Becca.
"Stupid! Stupid! Both of them are such idiots! Why do I even bother try to help them when they don't even care so why should I!" Yelled Rebecca" I should have brought my jacket s now I am the stupid one
…whatever I think I might go to that diner what was it called again…oh ya Suzuka's Diner that right! Ok…."Mumbled Becca.

8:03 PM.
"Ok Scully were could she have gone?"
"Oh like I would know I don't even know what the girl likes to ea….MULDER! I know were she is!"
"Ok Scully where's Rebecca?"
"The one and only place she has eaten since she got here other than your place and the airport
."Said Scully with a smile building up inside.
"Genius simply genius Scully… how far do you think she got to on foot? Unless she got a cab but still it takes a half an hour to get there even in a car with all the traffic?" Asked Mulder
"I don't know but I am already almost there so...meet you here and if I find her I will call you. Ok?" Said Scully
"Ya sure I am going to go a little bit slower so just in case you passed her I won't ok so be there in an hour or so." Said Mulder

Mulder was driving alone the road still looking for Rebecca when he spotted her. But when he spotted he was in the middle of an intersection and the road he was on was a one way road. But Mulder not caring if the entire planet was about to explode would turn around and save a cat from a tree even if he helps the key to saving the world.
"REBECCA!" yelled Mulder. Knowing that she would just keep ignoring him and if she didn't then she would start to run…but to his surprise she stopped walking and just waited for him to catch up to her.
"Fox I'm sorry I shouldn't have said those things and I shouldn't have ran off on you two like that…I'm really sorry," Becca said
"Its fine but I don't know why you did that or even why you ran off on us…did you think you were going to get into trouble or something? Cause if you think you were going to you weren't…honestly I am happy you said those things. Because now I can tell her how I really feel, even though you basically did for me." Fox said with a sincere smile
"You sure because I feel really bad and I think Dana is mad at me now cause I told her secret too even though she didn't tell me …since it's sort of obvious that she likes you. OOPS there I go again don't tell her what I just said again please!" Begged Becca
"Ya sure don't worry about it OK Becca…I won't tell Dana…oh don't tell her…"
"Don't worry I wont well so um where's Dana?" Asked Becca
"Oh she is going to the diner…she thought you might be going that way but since you were going the opposite direction then I guess she was wrong." Mulder said
"She wasn't wrong I was heading that way I asked for directions and this way is the way they said to go to…well the Chinese people said to… I guess they didn't know were they were going either." Rebecca said with a giggle
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"I wonder if Fox found her by now… I sure hope he did she didn't have a coat on...and its bitter cold out…I hop she's ok." Said Scully in a saddened voice.
***CRASH***
All of a sudden Scully heard a loud crash to her right. She looks over to see a man…but a man with no face.
"FREEZE!" Yelled Scully" FEDERAL AGENT! I am armed! Damnit wait I said!" Scully started to chase after the faceless man. Though she still wonders how the people can run and not hurt themselves.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
"Hey Fox um…where is Dana running off to? Fox were she going?" Asked Rebecca very worried.
"I don't know stay here…and take this and stay in the car." Mulder handed Rebecca his spare Sig Sauer P229 that he had in his glove compartment just in case he lost his or needed it incase of an emergency.
" But Fox I can help…"Rebecca was interrupted by a very serious Fox who not even Rebecca has ever seen a side of him before, and that terrified her more than the thing that Dana was chasing after.
"NO! I said stay right here don't move don't get out of the car and lock the doors and windows!" Screamed a very worried Mulder.
"Ye…yes sir" Was all that Rebecca could speak at the time.
Mulder got out of the car and started chasing after Scully and whatever it was that she was chasing though he hopes it isn't to serious…for Rebecca's sake.
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
9:35 PM.
"Mulder and Scully returned together...but it wasn't until after whatever Scully was chasing just vanished out of thin air… but Scully and Mulder got a bad feeling while walking back to the car…but even more when they got about twenty feet away was when they realized that Mulder's car was smash, the window gone, and shattered, the tires slashed. But one thing they didn't notice until they got closer was that there was a hand hanging out of the passenger window covered in blood. When Mulder and Scully noticed it both of there hearts stop beating. Mulder just stood there while Scully recovered from her shock first and walked over, but just started to cry. But it was tears of joy and tears of sorrow. For the hand didn't belong to Rebecca's but one of the people that had kidnapped her were what Scully and Mulder were chasing after before, but if this person was dead…who took Rebecca….and why? But needles to say it was a relief to know that those abnormal people didn't have her but even more of a worry because they didn't know who or what had her now…
Scully walked over to Mulder who was not crying just on his knees staring into the dark abyss of the forest. Wondering why this happened to her, why this happened to him again, what would have happened if he listen to her and let her come with him…and not stayed into the car alone…unprotected…scared…helpless… and where she is now…
"Scully why…why her? Why did they take the only thing in my life that was going right…why her…why Rebecca…'Mulder looked at Scully like she knew everything…more like it was her fault that this happen to him and poor Rebecca, and everything bad that has ever happened to him in his entire life…like if he never met Dana this and everything in his life would be different, like it would be better somehow…
"I don't know Mulder…I just…" Scully went to touch Mulder on his shoulder but before she could even touch his shoulder Mulder pulled away and stood up…with a cold and hateful look in his eyes Mulder said to Scully…"Die" then Mulder took off full speed in the direction he believed to be the way the kidnappers took Rebecca. Leaving a shocked and saddened Scully behind…
