The agents pulled into the driveway of the old two-story house. It was one
of those
places where your closest neighbor was 5 miles away. After they found that
the doorbell
didn't ring, Mulder kicked the front door in. It was dark inside the house.
Scully
flicked the light switch on and off, but to no avail. The two pulled out
their trusty
flashlights and made their way quietly through the house.
Scully Alice? Alice, are you in here?
She made her way up the stairs cautiously. Mulder chose to stay on the ground floor. Scully shined her flashlight up into the darkened hallway, when suddenly she heard a crash downstairs.
Mulder SCULLY!
She dropped her flashlight and ran towards the scream. She entered the kitchen to see Mulder's back. She slid her way in to see something shining in the new moonlight inches from her partner's face.
Scully (under her breath) Oh God...
Taking a few steps more, she saw that it was a butcher's knife. Mulder was breathing heavily, frozen solid. In front of the knife was Alice. Scully looked at the girl. She was... glowing, with a soft red aura. Her features were indistinguishable, but her eyes pierced the darkness like two red embers in a dying fire.(this sound is hard to describe, but i'll do my best) She was making a strange sound. It was like a child giggling mixed with creaking and moaning. It sent shivers up and down her spine. She was almost as frozen as her helpless partner. She was breathing hard, taking small steps back.
Scully (thinking) What the hell is this? What is going on?
Then she saw something that made her stop in her tracks. The knife was backing up. Scully was panting now, trying to shake off fear's paralyzing grip.
Sculy (between breaths) Oh God... OH, GOD, NO!
The knife flew at Mulder's face, but Scully tackled him to the ground. The knife hit the wall behind him. Scully looked up at the attacker. Alice could now be fully seen, her whole body lit up by her aura. The red and orange filled the room. She was furious. Her hair stood on end and she screamed. As she did, drawers flew open, forks, spoons, knives, dishes all flew around the kitchen. Scully crawled out of the room, dragging the still-stunned Mulder. She pulled him up and they ran out the front door.
