Mulder quielty looked around downstairs, he didnt see anything suspicious or hear anyone downstairs. He looked towards the stairs that led upstairs and listened, he didnt hear anything up there either.

He stood on the first step and jumped out of surprise when he heard a loud bang coming from upstairs, he froze.

Scully was lying on the floor, she had never felt such pan like she had just experienced. Michael had slammed her head against the wall because she wouldnt comply to his demands.

Skinner bring himself to watch but he found it hard to look away, he was ready to kick Michael's ass anyday.

Scully closed her eyes and then opened again, she was praying that all of this was just a bad dream.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Mulder exhaled the breath that he had been holding and then slowly went up some more stairs, he didnt want to risk being caught or putting Scully into a risky situation.

Here was here to save her and kick some ass.

He finally reached the top of the stairs and crept along the corridor that seemed to grow longer with every step he took.

Michael grabbed Scully's hair and pulled her off the floor, they stared into each other eyes.

Michael saw hate and Scully saw pure evil.

He shoved her aginst the wall and then turned to look at Skinner.

"Woman like it rough." he told him.

Skinner frowned, not the women he dated; he thought to himself.

He turned back his attention back to Scully and kissed her neck, she closed her eyes and tried to be anywhere but here.

"Get your filthy paws off her!" Mulder shouted as he enetered the room and saw the scenario in front of him.

Scully opened her eyes and smiled, she was so glad that he had managed to make it in time.

Michael looked at Mulder then back at Scully.

"What if i dont?" he asked with a little smile playing on his lips. "What if i want to touch every inch of her body with my filthy paws?"

"I wont let you." Mulder said sternly.

Michael shrugged and pulled a gun out of his back pocket.

"What if you dont have a choice?" he aked, pointing the gun in Scully's direction.

Scully's breath caught in her throat, she looked at Skinner then at Mulder then back at Michael.

Why do things always have to get more complicated? She asked herself.
