Inside the van, Skinner was doing his best to contain the riot situation that had developed outside. This was definitely something he had not planned on! It was bad enough to have Scully undercover out there but now to lose her with the suspect still out there somewhere? And he knew that Mulder was fit to be tied as well. "Don't worry, Agent Mulder. She just probably got lost in the shuffle down there. You saw what was happening out there."

"Oh yeah, I saw it all right." Mulder replied continuing to check the video screens of any sign of Scully.

"She probably ducked into someplace safe until the chaos cleared up."

"Yeah, maybe." Mulder leaned in closer to the video monitor, which was pointed at the last known place Scully had been seen. He then noticed what appeared to be a part of some kind of equipment on the ground. "Maybe not."

"What is it?"

Mulder pointed to the same object. "Looks like we know now why Scully couldn't hear us. Part of her ear piece is missing."

Skinner studied the object carefully. "You're right. But that earpiece was put in securely. There's no way it would just fall out unless…"

"Unless some kind of movement forced it out." Mulder finished.

Skinner nodded and then spoke into his headset. "All right, listen up. I have new orders for Agents in Section Two. I want you to head back toward the street corner now that the riot has mostly been contained. I want you to find Agent Scully who appears to have left the scene. Due to a malfunction in her ear piece, there is a slight possibility she may have been hurt in some way…"


Jeremy continued dragging Scully with him down the alleyway until he reached a door. "Ah, here we go." He leaned into her ear. "Now, we can have a little privacy." He then opened the door and pulled Scully in after him before closing it. He then dragged her down another hallway. "You know I have to admit that I didn't think I was going to be able to complete my task tonight. Those dreadful bikers had to come in and scatter the merchandise. The nerve!" He stopped in front of another door and began running his fingers through Scully's hair. "But then I had one little girl who was waiting just for me."

Scully closed her eyes and flinched at Jeremy's touch. She was starting to have a difficult time breathing due to Jeremy's other hand over her mouth. And because of that, was having a hard time concentrating on how to escape. This man definitely knew what he was doing.

Jeremy unlocked the door and then dragged Scully in with him again. He then closed and locked the door behind him. "Here we are, home sweet home."

Scully opened her eyes halfway and could see that they were in what appeared to be an apartment or a studio. It was hard for her to tell due to her mind starting to go cloudy from not getting enough oxygen to the brain. So this is where he had taken his victims to perform his terrible deeds? There hardly appeared to be any evidence of such a thing to indicate it. It looked just like a nice, cozy room.

As if he could read her mind, Jeremy then spoke. "Oh, no this isn't going to be where you will be staying, little Red." He pulled Scully with him toward the back. "I have a much nicer place for you."

The suffocation starting to take more of an effect, Scully started to cough and choke.

"What is it my little Red?" Jeremy asked taking his hand off her mouth enough for her to speak.

"Breathe. Can't….can't breathe." Scully whispered.

"Oh. Well I suppose we can remedy that now that we are alone." He placed the knife close to her throat again. "But remember one scream and it will be your last. I have sensitive ears."

Scully nodded slowly. She then felt Jeremy's hand completely off of her mouth and began to take in as much air as she could. She flinched as she felt the knife prick her skin from moving.

"Now, now be careful. We wouldn't want to see you get hurt now would we?" He pulled the knife away just enough where it wouldn't cut her while she recovered her breathing. "Better?"

"Ye…yes." Scully replied softly before coughing a few more times.

"Good." He started moving Scully toward the back again. "The last thing I would want is to have you unconscious for your revealing."

"Re…revealing?"

"Yes." He leaned into her again with the knife. "But I can't tell you what it is otherwise it will spoil the surprise."

"Please….please let me go."

"Awwww you said please. Isn't that nice? You are definitely much more polite than the other girls. They would always choose to either scream or kick me. That really didn't settle well with me and soon I had to teach them a lesson." He ran his hand slowly down her neck to her shoulders. "But I somehow feel that you're special. Are you my little Red?"

Scully shook her head trying to not feel Jeremy's hot breath on her neck.

"Well, I think you are. And soon we'll see." He unlocked another door before pulling Scully in after him and closing and locking it.


Mulder found himself pacing the van nervously as Agents continued checking the area for any sign of Scully. So far, the only thing that had been found was the part of her earpiece. He didn't like the feel of this at all. Even though only minutes had passed, it seemed like an eternity for him. "Something's wrong."

"We're doing everything we can to find her, Agent Mulder." Skinner replied listening to reports on his headset. "If she went to hide somewhere she could still…"

"No. She would have come out by now." Mulder pulled out his gun from his holster and checked the clip.

"Agent Mulder, what are you doing?"

"I'm going out there." Mulder replied putting the clip back in place and heading toward the door.

Skinner grabbed him by the shoulder. "Are you crazy?! You can't go out there! That riot still hasn't been completely contained yet!"

"Something happened to Scully out there dammit!" Mulder replied angrily turning to him. "No one can find any trace of her. The longer she is missing, the more chance that she's in danger. And I'm not going to let that happen! You want to stop me?Then shoot me! Otherwise get the hell out of my way!"

"You're making a huge mistake! Not to mention disobeying a direct order!"

"Then write my ass up! I don't give a shit! Do whatever you want AFTER I bring Scully back!" Without another word, Mulder opened the van door and ran out into the night.

"Agent Mulder!" Skinner yelled from the back door as he watched Mulder's figure consumed by the darkness. "Shit!" He groaned before hitting the side of the van. "That crazy son-of-a-bitch is going to get himself killed!" He then spoke back into his headset. "Find me Agent Scully, dammit!"


Jeremy guided Scully over to a bed across the room and sat her down. He then took the knife and ran it down her front slowly as he leaned into her ear. "So tell me, what's your name, little Red?"

"Da…Dana." Scully answered swallowing.

"Dana? That's a pretty name. I like that. You do know that you are named after a goddess right?"

Scully shook her head.

"Oh but you are. You're named after the goddess Danu. How fitting for one as beautiful as you." He brought the knife down to her mini skirt. "You are truly special now sweet, Dana."

"Please…please don't hurt me." Scully replied in a pleading voice as she trembled.

"Hurt you? Oh I wouldn't dream of hurting a goddess that was sent to me." He kept the knife on her as he ran his hand slowly under her skirt touching her leg and inching his way to her thigh. "Even your skin feels like a goddess'." He whispered. "Does this excite you?"

Scully shook her head trying not to think of Jeremy touching her in an area that no man had in years. And she cursed her body for responding through instinct. The feel of a hand on her thigh like this was sending shivers all through her.

"Oh, but I think it does." His hand wandered to the outside of her panties where he felt dampness. A smile then crept across his face. "You see? You can't lie to me, sweet, Dana. If there is one thing I can't tolerate it's when someone lies to me." His hand moved under her panties and brushed her soft pink lips.

Scully took in a deep breath as her entire body shook from his touch. She felt completely powerless with this man. It was like he knew exactly what to do to get her body to respond. She let out a gasp as she felt him insert a finger into her.

"Ooooo…so tight." Jeremy whispered. "I would have expected a whore to be much looser."

"I'm….I'm new." Scully whispered taking in another breath.

Jeremy leaned in to her face. "Then it is my lucky night." He gazed into her eyes for a moment before taking her lips in a passionate kiss. His finger then began to move in and out of her slowly.

Scully tried to cry out but was suffocated by Jeremy's powerful lips. She was trying desperately to remember everything she had been taught about when dealing with a situation like this. But Jeremy's touches were making it hard for her to concentrate. She finally managed to push Jeremy away from her lips.

Jeremy looked back at her smiling as she stopped moving his finger. "My you certainly are strong for a little whore aren't you?"

"I….I work out at times."

"I see. Well it isn't good practice to refuse a customer." He grabbed Scully by the face roughly and then noticed a single crystal earring dangling on her right ear. He reached out and touched it. "Hardly a choice for a whore. Was it a gift from one of your clients perhaps?"

Scully had forgotten that she was wearing the earrings that Mulder had given her for Christmas that year. "A…a client yes."

"He has good taste." Jeremy replied rubbing her cheek with his thumb as he kept his grip on her. "But don't be deceived by gifts, my sweet, Dana." He looked into her eyes. "It still makes you a whore and no man can truly love you. You are nothing but a good fuck and nothing more. Do you understand?"

Scully looked at him remaining silent.

Jeremy then took his knife and placed it on the side of her cheek. "I said, do you understand?"

Scully closed her eyes as she felt the knife on her tender skin. "Y…yes."

"Good. That's better." His hand moved down to her mini skirt again. "Now let me see why it is exactly that your client feels he needs to give you a nice pair of earrings for your services." His hand wandered to a pocket where he found a lump. "Hiding something from me sweet, Dana?"

It was then that Scully remembered she had placed her FBI ID in her pocket. She hadn't anticipated being that close for the suspect to see it. That is until she showed it to him just before arresting him. And now she was about to pay the ultimate price for not thinking things through correctly. Yet again something Mulder had been right about that she had chosen to ignore. "It's….it's just my wallet." She knew she had to divert his attention away from it somehow. If he found out she was an FBI Agent it would be over. She took a swallow before placing her hands on his thigh. "But….you don't need to see that do you? I think what's more important is what's right here." She tilted her head toward his face and moved to his lips.

Jeremy moved forward kissing Scully passionately. As he kissed her, his hand moved into her pocket where he pulled out the ID and let it fall to the floor. His eyes then opened and he saw the ID opened revealing her picture. His brow creased as he read it. He then pushed Scully away from him roughly. "FBI? You're a fucking FBI Agent?!"

Scully could sense the anger in Jeremy and knew that things were about to take a much worse turn. She had to think quickly. She lunged forward trying to wrestle the knife from Jeremy's hand. But Jeremy was too strong for her and she soon found herself succumbing to it. He brought her hand down roughly causing her to cry out in pain. She then felt the knife on her chest, as her top was ripped open exposing her bra.

Jeremy then saw the wire. "What the fuck?!" He ripped it off of her tossing it to the ground. "You lied to me! You fucking lied to me!" He then slapped Scully across the face as hard as he could sending her falling across the bed.

Scully reeled from the powerful slap and opened her eyes part way. She could literally feel the entire room spinning. She was then aware of Jeremy hovering over her once again with the knife.

"That was so stupid, sweet Dana! That was so fucking stupid!" He leaned into her with the knife pointed at her throat as a tear trickled down his cheek. "How could you do this sweet, Dana? You were a goddess! I told you not to lie to me and you did!" He paused. "And now….I'm going to have to teach you a lesson just like the others."

Scully closed her eyes as tears streamed down her cheeks. "Please…"

"Oh no, not this time my sweet, Dana." He moved to her ear. "Whisper softly sweet, Dana for if you scream your death will be much slower."
