"The house those teenagers just happened to wander in to that night is actually quite popular among the town. Supposedly, a family of witches lived there in the late 1700's. They were killed though, suspected of murder." It had taken him a long time to find anything on the house. He had searched several websites, and even called the town's local police.
"Mulder, don't even tell me that you think some sort or paranormal force is to blame for the disappearance of these kids." Scully almost laughed as she said this. It had been so long since she had been involved with a case that couldn't be solved by DNA or real life evidence. He took in a very deep breath and let it out loudly. He had forgotten what it was like to have a skeptical partner. He guessed she had forgotten that he was always right.
"Listen, all I know is three kids are missing, and no one has any clue as to where they could be. You and I both know that stranger things have happened."
The agent arrived at Megan's hospital at around 1:00 pm the next afternoon.
"Hi, I'm Federal Agent Fox Mulder and this is my partner Dana Scully (they flash there badges). We need to know the room number of a patient named Megan O'Farrell." The nurse at the desk saw there badges and seemed to get a little intimidated. She was quick to answer them.
"I can show you to her room, its number 209." The nurse came out from behind her desk and led the agents down a long hallway. It was very bright, the fluorescent light bounced off the white walls. There was also an eerie silence among the place. No one was in the halls, not even a passing doctor.
"She still very shook up. He cuts are healing very nicely, but she is having a lot of trouble sleeping at night. I'm sure she's haunted by what she has seen." Mulder looked down at Scully when the nurse said the word 'haunted'. He wanted to be right so bad.
As they entered the room, Megan was laying over her side with her back facing the agents. She was looking out her window. It was a beautiful bright day out, it was obvious she didn't want to be stuck inside. Scully walked over to her slowly to see if she was awake.
"Don't worry, I'm awake. I don't sleep much lately." Scully jumped back a bit in surprise, she had not expected her to say anything.
"Are you here to ask me more questions?" She asked with a bit of an annoyed tone to her voice.
"Agent Scully and I are from the F.B.I, we've been given your case." Megan was now sitting up in her bed looking at both agents.
"Can you give us your account of what happened that night?" Scully asked as she sat at the end of Megan's bed.
"My friends and I thought it would be cool to go to this house they had told me about. They said it was haunted and all this other crap. They wanted to see if they could get in touch with anyone. It sounded stupid, but I didn't really have anything else to do. We were sitting on the floor with some lit candles, and Jamie started chanting stuff. Within like a minute the house started to shake. At first it seemed really cool. Then this light came from the ceiling. We all were looking at it when suddenly Jamie went flying up towards it. She was screaming so loud…" Scully passed the tissues to Megan who was beginning to get upset.
"The next thing I knew I was being pulled up too. This cloud surrounded me. I saw all these horrible faces. They got so close to me. I felt them ripping at my face. Then all of the sudden for some reason I fell. I don't know if I broke free or what, but I ran. The next thing I knew I was here." Mulder and Scully sat in silence for a moment, taking in the story. It was obvious by her emotions that something unnatural had happened that night.
