William and Melissa watched the scene before them. They now understood the pain that Dana was in. Her status as lost soul was correct and she would never be happy. Not without her soul mate. She had been one of the lucky ones when it came to love. She had found her soul mate. But it wasn't fair that she had been taken away from his love. They both knew the truth about Dana's death. It had been an accident. She wasn't supposed to die but something went wrong. She had died in Jonathan Green's, the man that had shot her, place. She had a future ahead of her. One that was predetermined by fate. But now her life was in chaos because something went wrong. It was time that things be set right. It was time that she had the life that she was so ruthlessly denied. So with wide smiles, the two Scully's began to rewrite the past so that the future would continue.
July 7, 1999
Somewhere in New York City, New York
It had been a boringly normal case. Nothing abnormal about it. Scully had been called in as an consultant to the local coroner since the victim was high priority and also the Mayors daughter, and Mulder was asked to do the profile. His profile lead them to the guy. There was about twenty-five policemen around the building but the perp still managed to slip past them. They gave chase and somehow got separated.
Scully was out of breath as she looked around the wet street. Her feet hurt from running and she was wet. To make matters worse, Mulder was nowhere to be seen. "Great." She mumbled as she raised her run and proceeded down the street and passed a dark alley.
Mulder made his way up the fire escape ladder for a better look at the street below not realizing that Scully wasn't with him any longer.
Just as she reached the alley, she felt herself being grabbed from behind. She automatically went into fight mode and kicked at her attacker. He managed to get her gun away from her and she got out a few good screams before he drug her into the darkness of the alley.
A scream made him realize that Scully wasn't with him and just as quickly as he climbed the ladder, he had descended it. His gun was raised as he rushed into the alley but it was dark and he couldn't see.
She felt his breath on her neck as he whispered "I don't want to kill you but you leave me no choice." Jonathan Green pressed her against the wall and pressed the gun to the corner of right eye brow and pulled the trigger but it jammed. She saw her chance and brought her knee up, connecting with his groin. He stumbled backward in surprised pain.
Mulder saw movement and rushed towards it. Jonathan Green was stumbling away from Scully but he had a gun. Without a second thought, Mulder raised his own gun, took aim, and fired. His shot was good and Green went down. He rushed forward just in time to catch Scully as she crumpled as well. He fumbled at her coat, checking for injuries. When he pulled his hand out of her coat it was sticky and wet. "Oh shit. Scully can you hear me?" He pulled out his cell phone, dialed 911 and reported their location. After he hung up, his attention turned back to Scully. "You gotta hang on, Dana. Do you hear me? The paramedics are on their way. Just hang on!" He kept saying over and over again.
Scully felt the feeling of deja-vu when her eyes fluttered open. She was staring at a bright light. Turning her head, she smiled. Mulder was staring at her with his big beautiful hazel eyes and a smile that was forty watts. "Hey." She mumbled.
Fox Mulder was the happiest man alive when Dana looked at him. She's awake! He wanted to scream but instead gave her a forty watt smile. "Hey." He held up a glass of water for her to drink from then settled back in the chair and held her hand, tightly. "Green got off a good shot before I took him out." He motioned towards her stomach which was heavily bandaged.
She raised an eyebrow and smiled. "I would have never guessed." She gave her husbands hand a squeeze. "Pain medicine...working wonders." She muttered before her eyes drifted shut. "I love you." Was her last words before she fell back asleep.
He squeezed her hand back. "I love you too." He whispered since she had already fallen asleep. Mulder laid his head down on the edge of her bed and followed his wife into the land of dreams, content in knowing that she was alive and going to be ok.
"Well Dad. Looks like it worked." Melissa Scully said to her father as they walked through the perfectly green field. The sky looked a little bluer to her but she didn't say anything and stayed quiet. She was happy for her little sister. And content in knowing that everything was right with the world once again.
