Later that night, at around midnight, Agents Scully, Mulder and Reyes all sat in circle. Doggett didn't want to come as he completely didn't believe in it, and Reyes agreed he should stay home as his skepticism might end up overriding the procedure.
Reyes took a deep breath. "Close your eyes everyone, while I add the ingredients into this bowl here," Reyes said softly. Agents Mulder and Scully did as they were told.
Reyes then murmured a spell to herself as she added some herbs and chicken bones to the bowl before stirring it all together. She then took out a pocket knife and made a tiny cut on her finger so the blood would be added to the bowl.
"Sorry guys but I am going to need your blood too," she said apologetically. Scully and Mulder held out their fingers. "Spoken like a true vampire," Mulder murmured with a grin.
Reyes grinned back as she took a drop of blood from each of them. Then she poured the little amount of blood into the bowl and mixed it all together again.
She murmured the spell one more time and seddunly a blue flash emerged from the bowl. It happened so quickly and was gone in the blink of an eye that they almost didn't see it.
"Okay," Reyes said. "You may open your eyes now. The ritual is done," Reyes told them. Mulder and Scully opened their eyes and Scully breathed a sigh of relief. "That's it? It's gone?" she asked hopefully. Reyes smiled and nodded. "It's gone," she told her, and Mulder and Scully smiled at her. "Thank you so much Agent Reyes," Mulder told her as they all stood up. "No problem. Just call me a ghostbuster," Reyes joked with a wink as Scully lead her to the front door.
After she left Agent Mulder and Scully went to bed.
The next day dawned bright and sunny and Mulder yawned as he woke. He looked at the sun light filtering through the curtains before rolling into his other side to watch Scully, who was still fast asleep.
She woke a few minutes later and smiled at Mulder as she did so. "Hey," she said sleepily. "Hey," Mulder replied with a grin. "How'd you sleep?" He asked as Scully stretched.
"Out like a light for the first time since the banshee. You?" she asked. "Me too," Mulder said. "Looks like whatever Reyes did worked," Scully said and Mulder smiled, happy that he and Scully would be close together again.
The End
