********************
Scully woke up with a throb in her right arm. She sat up to inspect what was causing this sudden pain. She had an IV in her arm. She gasped as she pulled it out of her arm. No way was she going to let them put their poisons in her blood stream. She groaned inwardly as she sat up and got up off the gurney. Wait why was she on a gurney? She thought. 'What the hell did they do to me?' The fear of being abducted lingered in her mind.
She was dressed in a hospital gown with nothing else under it. Now why would that be? She shuddered at the thought of cancer man undressing her. She needed to find Alex Jr. soon.
Standing up and walking over to the door again, Scully looked out the small window. She noticed it had a crack in it. If only she could pound the glass and break it more. She moaned and looked around not finding anything, until she laid her eyes on the gurney and IV. How could she think there was nothing in the room?
Scully quickly ran over to the gurney bed. Deciding on the IV hookup stuff, she dragged it over to the door. She picked it up and started to smash the window with it. 'It was cracking' Scully thought excitedly. It took a few more hard blows and it finally gave way. It was enough to fit her arm through and open the door. It has to be open on the other side. She kept trying to find the door knob, gritting her teeth in pain as the glass shards cut through her skin making her blood get everywhere. Finally she found the knob. Scully turned it to find it was locked. Wait! There is a key in the key lock! It was almost as if someone wanted her to find a way out.
She turned the key around and opened the door. She was free, she was free to go around look for some decent clothes and look for her son. Then get the hell out of here. She ran down the hall way looking before she made any turns. She felt the adrenaline rush to her brain. She felt like one of those action player games.
She ran up several flights of stairs. Then stopped when she reached a door with a woman in it had toys all over. Scully thought that was odd considering it was a grown woman in there. Wait the woman was holing a shot. She was going to put the shot in someone. It was a little boy. Her son, Alex Jr.! She gasped as she heard a cry and a "leave me alone, I want my mommy" Yell from her son.
She burst into the room surprised that it was unlocked, then grabbed the woman by her hair then swung her around making her crash into a bunch of toys behind her. Scully ran over to Alex and helped him up he hugged her tightly with tears streaming down his eyes. The woman Scully had thrown into the toys was getting up and yelling crude Russian words at her. Scully was no fool she knew all about FBI training and one of them was to never let your enemy yell for help or back up. Scully sprinted around the other side of the room looking for something that she could use to tie up the woman better yet make her shut up. She found another hospital gown. Quickly running back to the woman who was still yelling and backing away from Scully, she ripped it into pieces, than tied it around her writs and feet. Taking another piece she shoved it all into the woman's mouth muffling her screams.
Satisfied with her work, Scully turned around and grabbed Alex's hand then said, "Are you ok sweetheart? Did she hurt you, did they hurt you?" When he nodded yes she hugged him tightly, and started to whisper words of encouragement. After he calmed down a bit she ran and shut the door then turned around and ran to the cupboards looking for cloths she could wear. She found clothes that was a little bit loose but fit her fine. It was a pair of pants and a sweater. She guessed they were the woman's.
After getting on her clothes she walked back to her son and grabbed him by the hand. They walked out of the door into the hall way and quietly sidled across the wall when they got closer to the corner.
Scully started to panic when she heard footsteps coming there way. She grabbed Alex Jr. and nudged him behind her. She was going to jump on one of them and fight with all her might. She was right two men, they both had dark hair, and she couldn't see their faces though.
She took a deep breath and jumped on the man nearest her, and started to pound on his back. The man started struggling with her on his back. They other man grabbed her by her waist trying to get her off. He succeeded in getting her off then gasped when he saw her face.
"Scully" The man said.
Scully looked up and saw it was Mulder. She was pounding Krycek's back.
"Oh my god where did you two come from I was so worried" She said as she hugged Mulder tightly.
Alex turned around and noticed Alex Jr. standing there, looking relieved. He ran up to him and hugged him tightly.
"Scully what's wrong with your arm? Who did this to you?" Mulder asked wit concern.
"I broke the window in my room and cut my arm while trying to get the door knob unlocked. I'm so glad you guys came." She said while rubbing her head in Mulder's jacket. He hugged her head tighter.
"It's you; you're my dad aren't you? You took me from that horrible place." Alex Jr. said to Alex.
"Yes I did." He said.
Scully and Mulder got up and started to walk down the hall way with Alex and Alex Jr. They made it to the outer doors but stopped when they heard a click of the gun. They all slowly turned around to face the Cancer man. Scully clutched protectively over Alex Jr. Mulder and Krycek both stood in front of Scully and the Alex Jr.
"Let them go Cancer man." Alex said.
"I actually want to keep them if you don't mind." He said in a taunting voice. Let me have them and I'll let you two go."
"No" Mulder said. "I'd rather die then you breathe on Scully"
"Alright, you can have me, but let Alex Jr. go." She said coming out behind the boys.
"Alright" CSM said with a smile.
"Scully, no, get back behind me!" Mulder grabbed her by the arm as she was setting Alex down.
"Mulder," she gently touched his cheek "the x-files need you." She then walked over to Alex and Alex Jr. "Take care of him, he needs a daddy now." She bent down and took Alex Jr. In her arms, "Sweetie, be good for daddy and Mulder." She kissed him on the cheek the stood up and turned to walk toward cancer man.
"Scully, no!" Mulder yelled grabbing Alex Jr. as he started to follow her.
Alex wasn't about to lose Scully to that bastard so easily. As soon as Scully and Cancer man were turned around and started to walk down the hall Alex ran toward Cancer man and punched him in the back.
It all seemed to happen in slow motion. Mulder pulled out his gun with his free hand after Krycek hit CSM. A gun shot was heard but not from Mulder. Scully and Mulder turned to face Cancer man and Krycek. Alex was clutching at his stomach where a gaping bullet wound lay their. Scully and Alex Jr. screamed. Mulder was shocked to see all this happening, he did the only thing that seemed good to do he shot his gun at Cancer man who was already running down the hall. He missed when he rounded the corner. He ran over to help Krycek as Scully was trying all she could to help him. She had tears in her eyes.
"How could you be so stupid" She cried.
"I had to save you from him." He stroked Alex Jr.'s face and turned to Mulder, "Thanks Mulder. Take care of them, they need you." He then turned to Scully with he lips quivering. "I love you Dana" Then he shut his eyes. Those were the last words Alex Krycek ever said.
"Come on Scully we have to get out of here." Mulder said picking her up off the ground.
"Oh Mulder, he may have been an assassin before but I really think he changed." She cried in his shirt.
"I know Scully, I believe you." He stroked her hair softly. Alex Jr. was crying softly on Mulder's pant leg. "Let's go home."
**************
One week later-
Scully and Alex Jr. learn to accept the fact that Alex was dead. Mulder was there every step of the way, he was to protect them, be the new father figure for Alex Jr. Scully and Mulder grew very close after that little scene. She was distraught but had Mulder for support. Skinner had given them a month off to get themselves organized again. Today they were headed to Maggie's house for lunch. Scully knocked on the door to her mother's house.
"Dana, Fox, Alex, hello" She said giving them all hugs and kisses and letting them in the house.
"Hello mother." Dana said.
"Hi Mrs. Scully" Mulder said handing her a salad.
"Oh thank you Fox." She set it on the kitchen table. "Everyone is dying to meet little Alex!" She took his hand and led him out side with everyone else.
"How about we go join them?" She asked Mulder taking his hand. Mulder followed her outside to see Maggie introducing all of Scully's family to Alex Jr.
The day went by very well. Even Scully's older brother Bill was nice to Mulder. Everyone went home after saying their goodbyes to everyone else. It was a nice quiet ride home in the car.
Alex Jr. ended up falling asleep in the car. When they got to Scully's apartment, Mulder brought Alex up the stairs and too her apartment. She let them in and led Mulder over to Alex's room. After Mulder was all done tucking him in he walked over to Scully's couch and sat down next to her.
"Scully, I just want you to know, that I know this past week has been tough on you, but I want to be apart of Alex's life." He cupped her chin gently in his hand.
"Oh Mulder, you will always be apart of our lives!" She hugged him tightly. "I, I love you Mulder." She said shyly.
"I love you too Scully," He lifted her head up again, "will you marry me?" He asked pulling out a velvet box.
Scully's eyes got big as took the box and opened it to find a diamond ring inside.
"Yes, yes of course I'll marry you!" She kissed him softly on the lips and rested her head on his chest. "Alex told me that it hurts to lose a daddy, but he knows he has to move on so he asked me if you could be his new daddy."
"I'd love to be his daddy, and your husband."
****************** The End!! Wasn't it sweet?? Tear for Krycek. Any comments anyone? I'd love to hear your opinions. Also I'd like to thank my betas their awesome! They got me through this story!!
