Lost
Ch 4
"Ok mom I'll be right over"
"please hurry"
Dana hangs up
"fuck, that fucking bitch" she shouts
"what's wrong?" says Doggett scared
"where's Hamilton?"
"I'm here" she says stepping back in
"assemble your team, Monica is at my moms"
"there outside waiting"
"right you two in a car, ill go on my own, and talk to her. Stay outside, no one comes in till I say"
Skinner walks in and grabs her arms
"its wrong and dangerous, you can't go in alone"
"I won't be alone, Ill have mom and you lot outside. I need to do as she wishes before she hurts mom, you know I'm right? Look at john for proof"
"ok, ok, what's the word?"
"What?"
"You said on your word we enter, what's the word?"
"Umm... Angel"
"angel?"
"Yes I never use the word so when I say it your run. Right Mom always keeps the back door unlocked so you can get in that way. Let's go"
They all walk out,
"Dana I don't want you to do this, she's dangerous and gone after your mom to get you" says john
"look... I know your saying it as you care but this is my mom, Monica is weak in the mind, ill attack her that way and as soon as moms safe ill say the word. Trust me"
"I do" he says.
Dana climbs into her car, and calls skinner
"hey you hear me ok?"
"Yes"
"ok its going in my breast pocket so you can hear everything, ok?"
"yes but I'm scared"
"I know"
And she places the phone in her pocket, deep breath and she sets off, thinking all the way how to tackle her without getting her or mom hurt.
She arrives and walks up the doors ajar
"In the lounge" comes Monica's voice
Dana steps in, Monica has a large knife in her hand holding it above Mrs Scullly who's sat on the sofa
"glad you could make it" says Monica
"what do you want?"
"To see you"
"then why not come to mine, why come to moms?"
"Well I'm bored of seeing your place, fancied a change of scenery"
"why?"
"I just did ok?" says Monica angrily
"right ok, mom you ok?"
"yes" says mrs Scullly looking terrified
"so what do you want to see me for?" asks Dana calmly
"cos I did"
"but why?"
Monica just shrugs
"you know what, that chat we had about you being better was shit wasn't it? Your not better, your worse"
"what?"
"We'll, you beat john up badly, your here with my mom at knife point, your not better and you never will be"
"yes I will"
"no you won't, even if you do get better your a horrid person now. That face will haunt john, me and mom forever"
"shut up" shouts Monica
"right now I don't love Monica, she'd never do this, she'd never even raise her voice to me let alone come to my family home and threaten mom, you know what?"
"What?" sounding angrier
"I hate you Monica" the words hurt Dana but she held it in
"what? No"
"yes I hate you, I hate you more than Alex krychek, more than the guy who killed my sister, more than the Shadow government who abducted me and even more than the man who ran the shadow government. Your more evil than all of them put together. And I hate you"
Monica's face dropped
"what about Mulder? You hate him?"
"no I don't, he never hurt me or my family, due to his obsession I lost people but nit through his own acts. You beat john, your threatening my mom, its you and I hate you"
Monica stepped away from Mrs Scullly "go, outside" she says
Mrs Scullly looks at Dana then runs outside.
"You used to love me, you used to be my partner, my lover, I thought you were my soul mate"
"we'll angel that's all dead now"
Monica looks up and is quickly restrained by two large guys in white suits, thee Doctor Hamilton injects her. She eased down onto a stretcher a third guy wheels in, and tied down.
"Can I say bye before you go?"
The doctor nods, Dana moves and looks down on the now sleepy Monica
"its over, bye"
And she's wheeled out.
"well done ms Scullly you dealt with that well, best way to tackle her with her emotions"
"but I meant most of it"
"either way, she's in the best hands and place now"
"yes she is, bye"
"bye ms Scullly"
Dana follows her outside and sees the men loading her into the awaiting ambulance. She then sees mom being held by skinner, Doggett walks over
"hug?" he asks
"please"
He moves and hugs her, she starts to shake
"its ok dana, its over let it out, let it all out"
And she does, she sobs into his shoulder as he holds her. She calms and feels horrid herself,
"I don't hate her"
"I know you don't but it stopped her, no one got hurt, its a good thing and she's off to get help"
"but what if it is forever? What if she never gets better?"
"Then we will... Carry on..."
"Dana" comes mrs scully's voice,
Dana pulls back from john
"you ok mom?"
"I will be, I want to go to bills to get away, are you coming?"
"I think you should" says john
"you don't even know who bill is do you?" asks Dana
"no but your mom must feel safe with him"
""its my brother. Ill come but I won't stay there"
"where will you stay?"
"at mine" announces skinner "she'll be safe with me"
"you sure?" asks Dana
"yes I'm sure. Do you want a ride to bills?" asks skinner
"please, ill need to pack. Can someone help get my case down?"
"I will" calls john and follows mrs Scullly in, leaving Dana and skinner on the lawn
"talk to me" says skinner
"later I'll talk, I need to think for now"
"ok, I'm here for you"
"as always"
"yes"
John and mom then walk out,
"bills expecting us all"
"shall we all go in mine? I can bring you back later Dana to collect your car"
"ok"
John carries moms case and puts it in the trunk then sits up front with skinner.
The journey is silent for a long while, all unsure of what to say, so much has just happened and everyone is in a bit of shock at Dana's 'confession' then tears on johns shoulder.
"Dana?" says Mrs Scullly breaking the silence
"yeah"
"I told bill about your relationship and what's just happened"
"right?"
"Just so you know"
"ok" and she turns away again, looking at the passing cars and places.
