Mulder was there in a flash. That didn't surprise her. Whenever there was any kind of dangerous situation that Scully was involved in Mulder was either there with her or on his way.
Mulder showed up and flashed his badge around to get to Scully, who was being questioned by the local P.D. "Are you okay?" Mulder asked, concern in his voice. "Yeah, everyone is. Luckily no one got hurt."
"What happened?" Asked Mulder, with obvious relief.
"Standard robbery, guy comes in, waves gun around, tells everyone to get down and stands there waiting for someone to give him money. Its the same type of situation we spend hours on in Quantico learning how to diffuse the situation. Except, this was a little different."
That word always catches Mulder's attention, "Different?" he asked.
"Yeah. A woman, no one knows who, was ordering the man to leave and saying if he didn't then he would get hurt. And the woman wasn't me."
"Well, What happened after that? How did the gunman get knocked out?"
"Well, here is where it gets... different. You not going to believe this... well then again you might." Scully said. Mulder smiled at that last remark.
"So there I was, gun drawn and ready to approach the man when my gun fell." "How was that different?" Mulder asked. "Guns slip sometimes that's not a big deal." "But it was different because it fell *behind* me. It fell out of my hand and into the dressing room behind me. When I went back to get my gun, the woman was shouting again and ordering the man to leave. This must have bugged him because he shot the ceiling. I turn around and next thing I know the man's gun goes flying from his hand and he is thrown up against the wall." She stopped and Mulder was watching her with questioning eyes that told her to finish telling him what she saw. "No one touched him Mulder!! His gun went flying, he went up the wall and no one moved from their spot."
Mulder was smiling now. Scully spoke again, "Why are you smiling? You, of all people Mulder, should believe me on this one. I don't get what's so funny."
"Oh, I definitely believe you Scully, it's just that you are admitting to me what you saw. Dear Diary, -" "Mulder" Scully said in a harsh voice that was a warning to Mulder to not go any further.
"Fine. You probably saw a ghost or an apparition. No big deal we have tons of cases like that in the X-Files. Or it could have been telekinesis or something. Tell you what. We will politely ask the officer in charge for any thing he has on this investigation and ask him for any security camera footage and any of the news camera footage and see what there is to see." Mulder said. Although he was more interested in investigating this case then he let on.
"Deal." Scully agreed.
