SUMMARY: Mulder and Scully are separated once again with an unasked question lingering in their thoughts. They both have plenty of time to think about what there relationship is. Will this time make them grow closer even over the long distance or will an attractive stranger lure Scully into betraying her true love?
6:56 pm November 30th Painted Desert, NM
Scully found herself in a dark and unfamiliar place. The only light came from a small source above her. The light shown brightly down on the only thing in the darkness, Mulder sat strapped to a chair. This seemed familiar, had she been here before? No this was a dream it had to be; it was a nightmare. A laser shown down from a dark machine above him. The laser cut into his mouth as he screamed. She cried as she watched, she couldn't do anything. She was screaming, and yelling for it to stop but she couldn't hear her voice.
Then out of the surrounding darkness came a bright light. It filled the place they were in. All was white like that day not so long ago on the road. All that was left was Mulder in the chair, Scully and a dark blurry figure about fifty feet from Mulder on the other side.
For some reason Scully recognized it. It quickly came into focus as it walked toward Mulder in the chair with an outstretched arm. It was much like the alien that Scully had seen, but this time its small mouth was moving, but she could hear nothing.
Just like in her vision as she held the gun to her head the alien changed suddenly into an angel with a bright flash. Something was different though; it looked more like a man than an angel. Scully got a strange but familiar feeling when she looked into his eyes. She had seen them somewhere before.
Just before she awoke the man reached out his hand to the laser which was still cutting at Mulder's mouth and it disappeared. She woke up, sitting up suddenly, screaming "Mulder!"
At the exact moment Mulder, hundreds of miles away, awoke screaming her name. He had been having a similar nightmare. Scully had been holding a gun to her head as she kneeled yelling at the sky, tears streaming down her face. He couldn't speak, to tell her he was here, to tell her to stop. He couldn't move to pull the gun from her hand.
Then everything went white and the alien appeared, just like what Scully had seen. But there was something about his eyes; the eyes of the man. He got a strange but familiar feeling when he looked into them, like he had seen them before.
7:15 am
Scully was sitting at a table in a small cafeteria, her mother across from her, eating some breakfast. Really she was childishly playing with it, stirring and poking it with her spoon. She really didn't care for the cereal and didn't much care for the place. The people all acted strange, like end-of-the-world religious types. There was absolutely no one talking and whenever her mother whispered a word they gave her an aggravated look.
"What's the matter honey?" her mother whispered.
Scully her a short smile that quickly disappeared and said "I'm fine Mother."
Scully's mom looked around and then continued quietly "Dana I can tell that something's wrong. You know you're aloud to have problems, everyone does."
Scully couldn't even give her another fake smile. She couldn't stop thinking about the dream. She couldn't stop thinking about Mulder. She hated herself for not ever being able to think about anything else. She didn't want to think about William, "Poor William." This only made tears come to her eyes. "No I need something else to think about." "No! I have to think about something else!"
At this point she stood suddenly and left the room she couldn't stand the uncomfortable feeling in the room. She was going to back to her room; while she briskly walked along the narrow hallway she angrily whipped the tears from her eyes. She then did something quite embarrassing; she ran straight into a tall man who was going the opposite direction.
"Whoops excuse me!" he said kindly then he saw her face, "Are you okay?"
"Um-um.I'm fine." she stuttered as she took a look at the man. He was at least a head taller than him and dark brown hair and gorgeous blue eyes. He was well dressed and had sweet cologne on. Scully couldn't help but smile when she saw his wide grin.
"Well you don't look so well? It's seems wrong for such a beautiful woman as you should have anything so bad troubling them."
She couldn't say a word but she thought to herself quite guiltily "He's totally flirting with me! Oh but he's so hott."
"There's a smile!" he said as Scully smiled. "My name is Michael Mathews."
"Mathews?" she said questioningly.
"Yes, you probably know my brother Nathan. He's second in command here."
"Second in command, ah sounds more and more like some freaky star-trek fan club or something else!" she thought to herself.
Scully suddenly shook her head slightly, she had been thinking about this guy with his shirt off. She hated herself as she remembered Mulder. "Damn you Dana!" she said to herself under her breath.
"I don't believe I know your name do I?"
"Sorry I've got to go!" she said finally taking her eyes off him.
As she turned and walked away Michael said loudly so that she could hear, "Well she you later Got-to-Go!"
She nearly laughed, she missed being flirted with. There was little time for it with Mulder before he had been kidnapped. She foolishly began to fear that it was because he was getting disinterested in her. It was surprising just how childish she could be. But the thing she feared more than anything, more than dying, than the alien invasion, or that she would never see William again was that she would be separated from him forever.
8:22 am Denver, Colorado
Mulder sat at a table in a room, or more of a cell, with no windows and a cot on one side. To Mulder's surprise he could hear music; it must have come through the door from a radio. The only reason it was significant was because the song sounded familiar, it reminded him of Scully instantly.
*********************************
. I cannot live without you.
*********************************
Scully placed had the gun to her head, screaming at the sky.
********************************************************
.I want you back.
*********************************************************
He kissed her long and slow right in front of Skinner, oh how he had missed her.
*****************************************************************
.I want you back.
************************************
He found her in the hospital. How did she get there? Had she been abducted?
**************************************************************
.If you walk out on me I'm walking after you.
****************************************************************
She left his apartment, he went after her. She thought that she could just leave him; he had to tell her why she couldn't. He had almost kissed her lips when she was stung.
****************************************************************
If you walk out on me I'm walking after you.
*********************************************
He kissed her she was so beautiful as she held their son.
*****************************************************
.I want you back.
**********************************************************
Her beautiful smile when he kissed her, "I guess the world didn't end."
************************************************************
.I cannot be without you.
**************************************************************** She shot the gun, he couldn't stop her. She fell to the ground. She couldn't go on without him, "There's no point in going on! I love you Mulder!" BANG! BANG! BANG!
The sound kept repeating in his head as he thought of the last scattered memory. "Why did she do it? Why couldn't she go on? She's so much stronger than me! God what will she do now?!"
8:30 am
There was a knock on the door, Scully got up from the bed. She had been battling herself with the thought of Michael Mathews. She hated herself for being attracted to him. The only reason she had was because she missed Mulder so much. She answered the door with rather pissed off attitude.
"What?!" she said not even looking up at the person.
"Dana?" Michael asked.
"So you do know who I am? Well you can call me." she paused she had an excellent idea to get this guy away from her because she didn't like the way she liked him. "You can call be Mrs. Mulder." She smiled; somehow she liked that name and the disappointed look on his face.
"You don't seem so sure about that." he said in a way that was obviously flirting.
"What are you here for?" she said frustrated.
"Well if you do have a husband then he doesn't seem to be treating you too well. Maybe I can help cheer you up."
Scully perked up when he said this, "Where is he going with this?" she asked herself. "What exactly do you propose?" she said in a suspicious voice.
He smiled, "Oh how I hate how much I love his smile!" she thought.
"I can give you something that will heal that broken heart of yours." As he said this he put one hand on the wall next to her blocking her in.
The next moment he did something very foolish, but Scully should have been able to tell this was what he was going to do from the start. He leaned in his face two inches from her face and looked into her eyes. Right at this moment Scully finally realized his plan.
Suddenly she remembered the first time she ever kissed Mulder; she could almost feel it as she remembered. She could almost smell his clothes; almost feel the smooth skin of his face. She smiled oh how great it was.
She suddenly awoke from her daydream as Michael reached her lips. Suddenly a rage filled Scully that she didn't even know that she had. Everything that had happened in the past three years filled her mind, Mulder in hiding, his trail, the whole end of the world mess, William being in danger, and Mulder kidnapped; all of it turned into fierce rage against this man.
Scully kneed him right in the where it counts. She didn't even pause to watch him wince painfully; she then slapped him in the face. He stumbled backwards and then fell painfully on his butt.
9:38 pm Denver, Colorado.
"Somehow they got word we were looking for him I suppose." said a muffled voice through the closed door.
Mulder was listening carefully to a conversation outside the door. The Cigarette-Smoking-Man was having with one of his informants. The Cancer man, as he called him, wouldn't tell him anything. He didn't even ask him any questions. He and the Syndicate seemed to be searching endlessly for his son.
"Well how could they get that information when the E.T.E. doesn't even know where he is?" the Cancer Man said angrily.
"That's it, no one knows not even his adopted parents. He was kidnapped shortly after the supposed death of Mulder and Scully. We believe that is was one of the members that is responsible."
"Which one?"
At this point Mulder couldn't hear anymore, they must have moved from the door. But then Cancer Man said loudly, ".You fool he's dead...We'll I believe we owe him a little visit don't we. And I believe I have some matters to deal with. Excuse me."
Mulder had to move quickly back to his cot at this point because Cancer Man entered the room. Cancer Man reached into his coat pocket, Mulder thought he was reaching for more cigarettes but in fact he took out a pen and a small piece of paper.
"I've been talking to your little negotiator and she wants some "proof of life.""
"Yes?" Mulder said.
"So write your little lover a note saying that you're still alive. ." he looked at him motioning for him to start, and before he left the room he said, "And that she has a choice."
At this point his cell phone rang and he took it out of his pocket and answered it, "That was quick. Do you have the situation secured? Good, get him here ASAP."
He smiled and clicked it closed, "Perfect. Mulder, tell your dear Scully she has a choice either you or your son."
