Five years later....
Mulder and Scully quit the X Files. Scully handed in her two weeks notice a month before
her maternity leave. Mulder gave his to Skinner two weeks later. They both figured that
the X Files were bound to be shut down sooner or later, and they had other things to worry
about.
Right before he handed in his resignation, they discussed it:
"Mulder, are you sure you want to quit? I mean, it was so important to you."
"Scully," he said, walking right up to her and looking her in the eyes. "The X Files
themselves were not important. I was concerned with my search for the Truth. I found the
Truth."
"What do you mean?" Scully said, completely confused.
"Don't you know? You are my Truth, Scully. Now I have you, I am not going to risk letting
you go."
Mulder got a job in a different, safer department of the FBI. He works as a consultant for
serial killers and rape cases. Scully teaches at Quantico. Scully and Mulder don't
encounter liver-eating mutants or green blooded aliens.
"Mommy, mommy!" a little four-year-old boy runs out of school and into the arms of his
fiery-haired mother.
"How was school, Will?"
"Fun. Where's Daddy? He's gonna help me make a hawwo-ween outfit."
"He's still at work. He'll be home soon. Why don't we go home and get a snack? Are you
hungry?"
"Yeah!"
Her stomach growls, "So is your baby sister" She laughs as she pats her swelling stomach.
At five o' clock, Mulder walks into his house.
"Keeping regular business hours, Mister Mulder? Don't tell me you've gone soft a gotten a
nine to five job?"
"I admit, I do have a soft spot. It's the woman I know. She was sitting at home and I
couldn't be away from her any longer."
"Daddy!" Will runs into Mulder's arms.
"Hi, sport!"
"You gonna make me a costume?"
"Now?"
"Uh-huh."
"Okay."
The two guys head back to the guest room. Twenty minutes later Will runs out in a green
mask with Mulder close behind.
"Look Mommy! I'm an alien!"
Scully doesn't even look up from the spaghetti sauce she is stirring. "Mulder, they aren't
green. They're gray."
