***Author's Note: Please, before reading this, know what you are getting yourself into. I don't want to be held responsible for your problems, as I will warn you now, this will be very graphic and intense. It will cross the lines of normal writing and powerful writing. I will take you on a thrill ride that if you can take it, you won't soon forget. I hope to have you hooked, and that you will keep craving more and more, as I write chapter after chapter until I reach the climax and its all done. I promise you, you won't know what the real story is until then, it will keep you guessing. I don't like stories that are obvious right off. That is part of the reason I am writing this. That and I like the upper hand that I have, as a writer, that you can't jump to the end and see how it all ends. Be warned...if you are weak of stomach, this isn't recomended...faint of heart, same thing. If you like this type of story, read on, but be forthwarned...once you enter this, you won't want to leave. It'll keep you hooked and craving for the next chapter, which will prolly be about every two weeks. I don't want to be the writer that lets you know everything right away, but you will get little clues along the way that you will need to put together to solve this X-File. So go on and read...but don't do it with the lights out and alone...you may very seriously regret it...***





Chapter Fourteen

The Light And The Darkness

Scully's Appartment

Georgetown, Virginia

9:20 AM

Dana sat alone. She watched her phone, waiting for the killer to call her again, or maybe Mulder to call and say that he is comming over. That would really make her feel better. Alot better. But alas she knew that his heart went out to Celeste now. She accepted that, even though they never did see eye to eye...and that bitch did cut her lip, but so much can be expected. She just wished that she could be a part of his life...and she hadn't made the mistake of talking him into leaving so long ago...it made her feel even worse that William had no real father figure, maybe John, but he was hardly around. And she worried about him alot. She worried that he may have some issues that he was keeping inside that he was afraid to talk about, he'd look at Monica ever so lovingly, but never say a word and this made Dana think about his feelings for her. Was he in love with Monica? She didn't want to jump on it and be wrong and make everyone feel stupid for even letting her think that, but what if she was actually right?

Suddenly the door opened and Fox walked in. Celeste was no where to be seen, and she knew that if she wasn't right there with Mulder, she wasn't with him at all. She was still back at the hotel, she gathered. She wanted to hug and hold him close, but she knew that this would be wrong....and he might reject her, even though they had shared so many intimate moments together. She thought back to all those times...she had been able to think but he broke into her thoughts like a knife through paper.

"Dana...how are you holding up?"

"Good. Why?"

"You have a killer after you...and I am with another woman, and I know that it hurts you. Alot. I can see it in your eyes, Dana."

"Yes, but as long as your happy, Fox, I guess I am too."

"Okay. About this killer..who is it?"

"I don't know."

"Hhhhmmm...any clues?"

"Just that he skins his victims and carves an orbours's into his victims as well...sick Goddamn mother fucker that he is..." she said, grinding her teeth.

"I see. I don't think I have ever come across one of those ---" said Mulder but was cut into by the phone. He picked it up. The voice on the other end was male, deep, and threatening.

"Hello. Is this Dana Scully?"

"No. Who the hell is this?"

"Your worst nightmare. Put on Scully."

"No."

"You do or Doggett here gets it..."

"Your bluffing!" Scully looked at Mulder who was starting to get angry, she grabbed the phone and started to talk.

"You leave him alone!"

"No. You can find him where the Darkness meets the Light...I will leave him for you two...but come alone, or I will kill you sooner then I planned on, got it, Dana?"

"Yes..." she said, tears running down her cheeks. She looked at Mulder, and him at her, and nothing was said, he knew that she was going to have to call Monica and go get Doggett...it was her job as his friend and hers. But was she up to it?
