CH.8 ***The hole***
Lying in the dirt next to her bike was nine-year-old Christina Drout. Her face was fear-stricken and her chest heaved as she panted in terror.
"Are you OK?" Scully cried as she ran over to the frightened girl and helped her up.
"Are you hurt?" She asked again.
"No, I..I..there was a little elf chasing me!"
"Where did it go?"
The girl pointed over to her right by the lake. Scully walked over to the lake wall. There was about a seven-foot drop to the water. She looked around the surrounding area and spotted a mound with a hole in it in the dirt. She walked over to it and bent down.
"SCULLY!?" Mulder cried in the distance.
"Mulder! I'm over here!" She replied.
"Christina!!!" A teenage girl yelled as she ran over with a teenage boy closely behind.
"Oh my God! Are you ok?" She yelled as she hugged the girl.
"Who are you?!! Did you do something to Christina?" The girl accused Scully.
"Scully!" Mulder cried as he ran up to the scene.
"YOU FREAKS! Are you trying to kidnap her?" The teenage girl demanded.
"No! Calm down, we're with the FBI." Scully reassured.
"What's going on? I heard a scream." Mulder asked confused.
"I heard a scream too. That's why I came over here." Scully said trying to regain control of the situation.
"Are you alright sweetheart?" Mulder bent down next to the little girl.
"I AM FINE! FIND THE DAMN ELF!!" The girl screamed in frustration.
"I don't believe this! Your mom isn't going to pay me now!" The teenage girl exclaimed as she held her head.
"Would you calm down!" Scully ordered.
"Hey babe, what the hell is going on?" The teenage boy with long greasy hair and a metallica shirt on asked stupidly.
"Who is he?" The little girl asked angrily.
"I'm Scott. I'm her boyfriend." The boy replied.
"You better not tell your mom Christina! She'll never let me babysit you again! I need to get money to get my ticket for the warped tour!" The teenage girl said panicky.
"Maybe you shouldn't be a baby-sitter. Instead of sucking face with him, you should've been watching this little girl. She could've been hurt." Scully argued.
"Hey, hey, hey! Why don't you three go back to where you came from." Mulder chirped in trying to calm things down.
The teenage girl rolled her eyes and took Scott's hand as they walked down the street following Christina on her bike.
"The girl said she saw an elf." Scully explained. "She said it ran over here." She pointed down to the hole.
"This must be where they come form." Mulder declared.
