Scully was furious.
Outside, everyone could see her calm posture but inside she was furious.
Mulder and Scully both walked past the cop and continued to the crash site over the little summit.
It infuriated her that the cop had just let these people through. Fair enough the one they call the Doctor, as the cop had explained he had shown some I.D, but nothing was done about the other people with this 'Doctor'. He might as well just let everybody through!
It also infuriated her that other agents had been assigned to this case and informed before Mulder and herself. Surely if other agents were notified, wouldn't they be notified at the same time and not a day after the event had occurred?
"Mulder something is not right about this?" Scully told Mulder.
"Like what?"" Mulder asked and stopped in his tracks.
"The cop just let them through without checking their I.D's and why didn't Skinner tell us he had other agents assigned to this case?" Scully asked.
"Let's find out shall we?" Mulder asked, taking on board what Scully had mentioned but making no sign at all that he cared.
They both reached the top of the summit and looked at the wreckage.
Bits of metal were all over the place, and the minority of plants that grew in this part of Roswell were black. A large hole was in the middle of the earth and around it stood three people. Scully could now see why the cop thought two of them looked too young to be agents. One of them, a female, looked old enough to be a proper agent.
The other two, a boy and a girl, looked no older than 18, and the legal age was 21 to become an agent, but most had to have years of training before hand to get into the FBI.
"Where's the Doctor?" Scully asked Mulder. There was only three around the hole, and the cop had said four people had come in early.
"How do you know which one is the Doctor?" Mulder asked Scully.
"You kidding me. These two on the side can't even by alcohol and the older one doesn't look like a Doctor to be honest. A woman's intuition." Scully said and walked towards the group.
"Which one of you is the Doctor?" Scully asked.
For the first time they noticed Scully.
"Er…" The young female girl asked but Scully didn't wait for her to answer.
"Can I see some I.D.?" Scully asked quickly. The girl did nothing.
"If you haven't got any I.D, I'm going to ask you to leave the premises and you could be charged with trespassing on a crime scene." Scully said with a tone of authority in her voice.
"Yeah right, how can I be trespassing when there is no crime?" The young female said, obviously offended by Scully's attitude. Mulder decided to intervene.
"If you haven't got any I.D., you shouldn't be here." Mulder said.
"She is here on my authority." A voice said. Mulder and Scully located the voice to be in the hole. They both walked over and found that hole was not very deep, but there was enough of it to hide a young man wearing a suit in there.
"I'm the Doctor and you are?" The Doctor asked. Scully noted his accent. It was the same as the girls- British London.
"I'm Agent Scully and this is Agent Mulder. Can we see some I.D.?" Scully asked, getting tired of asking the same question.
"Sure." The Doctor said and reached into his pocket and pulled out a small wallet and showed it to Mulder- Dr John Smith from UNIT.
"Ok Doctor Smith, but we need I.D. for the other three." Mulder said.
The Doctor put his wallet back in his pocket.
"The Doctor will do just fine. And they're with me." The Doctor said and climbed out of the hole.
"This is Marie," The Doctor said and pointed towards the oldest of the three who gave a little wave back to them. "This is Charlie," The Doctor said and pointed to the young male who gave a little smile and wave, "and this is Rose." The Doctor said and pointed to the young woman who answered Scully back earlier.
"What happened here?" Mulder asked, knowing that these people have been here longer and would know more information than himself and Scully at the moment.
"No idea. Something crashed here, and it probably wasn't supposed to." The Doctor said.
"What do you mean?" Scully asked, still suspicious of these people.
"Well nothing that crashes is supposed to," The Doctor said and reached into his pocket and brought out a Satsuma, "Something crashed here by accident." He started to peel the Satsuma slowly.
"Any idea what it was?" Mulder asked. He too was slightly suspicious of these people.
"A small aircraft, a weather balloon, or a small space ship." The Doctor said slowly and started to eat his Satsuma.
"A space ship?" Scully asked.
"Well this is Roswell after all." The Doctor said and gave a massive grin to Scully.
Scully didn't smile back.
"Who are you? Did Skinner send you?" Scully demanded. She deserved more information than he was giving her.
"I'm exactly who I said I am. These three are under my guard, training to be FBI agents and UNIT sent me here to train new recruits." The Doctor said but this wasn't good enough for Scully.
"She can't be an agent. She's obviously from London and is obviously not a full citizen here but merely a tourist." Scully said and pointed to Rose.
Rose was about to give her a piece of her mind when the cop that Mulder and Scully spoke to earlier came up to them.
"A body has been discovered about a mile from here." He said, slightly out of breathe from the run he made to meet them.
"Scully we better go and investigate it may have something to do with this case." Mulder said to Scully.
"Ok but I'm taking these two with me," Scully said and pointed to Marie and Charlie.
"No they stay under my care." The Doctor said quickly. Marie and Charlie said nothing.
"If your only training them, then surely another FBI agent would also be able to train them as well? No harm done." Scully said quickly and one look at the Doctor she knew she won. He had no other argument to make. She knew something was not right here. If the Doctor let them go, it would make his alibi stronger but if he refused then he put them all at risk.
"Ok but bring them back to me!" The Doctor said and gave a 'sorry' look to Marie and Charlie. Marie and Charlie did not object, and followed Scully and Mulder.
The Doctor and Rose watched them go.
"What do we do now?" Rose asked.
"Exactly what we came here to do. Solve this mystery." The Doctor said.
