Disclaimer: coincidentally I'm going to say the same thing as last time. I don't own any characters that are actually on the X-Files.

2 days later.

The plane seemed to tilt to one side, but then again Monica wasn't to fond of flying. She was probably imagining the whole tilt thing. Dana nudged her in the shoulder. "You okay?" "Yeah." Dana went back to staring out the window. "Does the plane seem like it's tilting to you?" Dana turned back to Monica. "What do you mean?" "Like it shifting all it's weight onto one side." "All planes do that Monica. Especially since we are turning." "Oh. Okay." The speakers suddenly erupted with noise. Ladies and gentlemen we will be arriving in Austin shortly. Please return your seats to the upright position and make sure your seatbelt is correctly buckled. We hope you've enjoyed your flight. Monica cringed at the last few words. "Enjoy the flight my ass. The bloody plane is tilting and she expects us to enjoy the damn flight."

Austin was dry and hot. Too hot for Dana's liking, but Monica's feelings were busy with this strange new feeling inside her to notice the heat. "Wow." She sighed. "What's up Monica?" Monica turned to her smiling brightly. "I feel like I'm home. And I don't think it's just because I was born here. I always had this sense in Mexico that, although I was loved, I didn't belong. I almost feel drawn to this place." Dana was puzzled, but she knew better than to question Monica's feelings. "You probably think its crazy." "No. I get the same feeling when I visit my parents." They smiled at each other and got into the rental car.

John lazily rolled over in bed and stretched his arm over Monica. But she wasn't there. She was gone. He looked at the clock on the bedside table. 12:45pm. He'd slept the clock around. Monica was probably downstairs reading the Sunday paper. But when John got downstairs, she wasn't. "Mon?" He yelled. No answer. "Monica!" He yelled again, still no answer. Then as he turned towards the kitchen the white note caught his eye. John, I've gone to Austin for a couple of days. Don't worry about me. Once I get everything sorted I tell you what's going on. If Fox visits you tell him Dana's with me. I love you sweetie. Monica "Great, now I can't even have a good day to end the weekend." John sighed and shoved some bread in the toaster.

The Hospital in Austin was conveniently three doors down from the hotel that Dana and Monica were staying in. Monica sat on the bed with the hotel phone to her ear. Dana watched as she twirled both her engagement ring and her special silver ring around on her fingers. She was nervous about the consequences of going to the hospital. But she was glad Dana was with her. She needed someone to lean on, and for some reason it just couldn't be John. Sure she loved John but Dana was like a sister to her, as she was to Dana. And this was a family matter. "The phone mustn't be connected properly, a hospital wouldn't take this long to pick up." Dana nodded and pointed to Monica's coat pocket. "Why don't you use your mobile. Or you could just go down to the hospital and get this over with face to face." "yeah it would probably be much easier. Can you come with me." Monica hung up the phone and grabbed her backpack, slinging it over her shoulder. "I wasn't going to let you do it on your own."

The walk seemed to take forever. Who knows, they probably walked through some time warp and were sent to the other side of town without noticing it. If that were the case or not our two heroines did reach the hospital. (Insert sigh of relief here if you must) Monica walked stiff-backed up to the front desk. "Can I help you?" The young girl smiled at her. "Yes." Monica staled for a moment trying to think of what came after that. Luckily Dana knew what it was. "Hi, sorry she's a bit shaken up. We're looking for a Kylie Louise Parker. She came in three days ago." "I'll just check our records for you." The girl smiled and turned to the computer. Monica mouthed a silent thankyou to Dana. "Right, may I ask exactly what your relationship is with Mrs Parker?" The girl turned back to Monica and Dana. Monica quickly replied. "We're with the FBI, and I'm Monica Reyes. I'm Kylie's sister." The girl sent them towards the elevator and up to Kylie's room.
