Chapter Two: Skinner's Office

Mulder and I had made our way up from the basement room (which we sadly call "office") via the elevator. It was refreshing to finally feel some cool air. The temperatures outside were blistering and the "office" was not included in the central air conditioning system of the J. Edgar Hoover Building.

We were immediately ushered into A.D. Skinner's office.

"I have been passed a case that I have decided to assign to you two," he declared handing Mulder a thick file. Mulder began to flip through as Skinner continued addressing us, but mainly me. "Air conditioning units from all over the country have been mysteriously disappearing practically overnight. These units are for large buildings and are rather enormous machines as it is. I want you to get to the bottom of it."

"Sir," I began. "This case hardly sounds like an X-File."

"It isn't. We are, however, worried that this very building may become a target. It is host to one of the most powerful air conditioning units in the continental United States." He said this rather proudly. "Seeing as how you two have the highest solve rate in the Bureau, the higher-ups figure you will solve this before we are robbed of our unit."

"But, sir-"

"We'll do it." Mulder finally spoke up.

"Excellent!" Skinner was about to say something else when Mulder cut him off.

"But only on one condition!" Skinner pouted briefly as Mulder continued. "If we solve this before your precious AC is stolen, you have to add our office into the central AC system."

Skinner seemed to weigh the options in his head, but Mulder made the "pleading puppy dog face". No one could resist that face. Sometimes I think the aliens would stop colonization if he made that face for them. Then again, I don't believe in aliens, so back to he point of this narration, Skinner agreed and we left the office.

"Aren't you bothered by the nature of this case? It isn't even an X-File." I spoke to Mulder as the elevator arrived and began its decent.

"No, in fact, I'm looking forward to it." I must have made some kind of a shocked face, or maybe Mulder is just really good at reading me because then he said: "Don't be shocked, we can think of it as a vacation. Besides," he said as the elevator opened into the scorching heat of the basement. "You'll thank me once you have that cool central air blowing through your hair."

I sit down and immediately feel like my body has fused with the chair because of the the extreme temperature. For once, I am not inclined to argue with Mulder.

A/N: Woot! I'm done. Now time for your part, the reviewing. If you don't DDStalker will be very upset. We may be fanfic writers, but we have feelings too! ::sniffle:: I shall now turn the next chapter over to my lovely/crazy co-writer.

A/N II: Hello, I want to thank my beatuiful/odd co-writer for writing such a wonderful chapter. No all we need are some reviews.......Hint Hint Please review before it get's ugly...
