Mulder stood outside the motel room, waiting for the Gunmen's van to pull up. He looked at his watch and then tapped on the hotel room to the right of him. Scully opened it and peered out. "They're late..."
"I know," he said, turning again to his watch. "I hope there wasn't any trouble."
"They would've called you if there were. I'm in here making phone calls. Let me know when they get here."
He smoothed his finger over her cheek. "Alright," he smiled. Scully held his open palm against her cheek feeling the roughness against her skin and then turned shutting the door back behind her.
The Gunmen pulled up in a white nondescript van and then exited it and walked up to Mulder, shaking his hand. He pulled out a key and opened the hotel room to his left and entered. He pointed to the bed. "You girls will be sharing one room on the governments dime..."
The Gunmen looked at each other. "You call us out here and then expect us to share a bed?", Froehike asked. "How cheap of you Mulder..."
Mulder smirked. "Hey, if you don't like it then pay you're own way!"
"Mulder," Byers said, looking at his colleagues and then back to Mulder. "We suspect they're on to our aliases..."
He smiled. "The FBI will only allow us to pay for two rooms boys...budget cuts... This is my room and next door is Scully's."
"Really...", Froehike said, a seedy smile on his face as he made his way to the adjoining room door. "Ah...access to the lovely Agent Scully..."
Mulder narrowed his eyes and looked over to Froehike. "We start at 3 a.m. So get your beauty sleep fellas...", he said, pushing Froehike out of the way and opening the adjoining door.
"And where will you be Mulder?", Byer's asked, as he sat his suitcase on the bed.
Mulder shot them a knowing look and then closed the adjoining door behind him leaving them alone. Langley turned to Froehike, "Told you! You owe me $100 bucks!"
"Yeah, yeah," Froehike said, sitting down hard at the table. "We do his dirty work for him and he gets the girl!"
Langley laid a laptop on the small table. "Yeah...and no down-time.."
"We've got work to do fellas," Byers said, pulling out his laptop. Froehike reached for his computer and they started uploading data. "We've got to find out where they took the body..and it's purpose..."
"Ain't it obvious?", Froehike said, staring at the photo of the strange creature. "They're manipulating our D.N.A turning us into freaks..."
"They must've already had a shot at you," Langley sneered.
"Shut it, barbie!", Froehike shot back.
"The National Guard and the Army reserve are stationed out of an inactive base, Fort Benjamin Harrision," Byers read outloud. "Home of the current 76th Infantry Brigade Combat Team."
"It says here that they are building a new facility there...", Langley said, scrolling down. "So there's still plenty of activity..."
"According to this," Froehike began. "It used to house a prison...and was both an Army base and Air Force back in the day..."
"It says here," Byers continued. "That the base was divided up into private military land as well as public, and tthey created a state park there...and retail establishments...in Lawrence, Indiana...outside Indianapolis..."
"Looks like the perfect place for them to take the body," Langley stated. "No one would be the wiser..."
"We know now where we need to go in the morning, guys," Byers said. "Should we tell them?", he said, looking over to where Mulder had exited.
"Of course we should," Froehike said, walking towards the door. "Lets tell him before he puts his grubby little fingers on Agent Scully."
"Give it up, Froehike," Langley said, rolling his eyes. "You never had a chance with her...you're in denial...plus she's over there with him right now!"
"He's right, you know," Byers added. "We've known Mulder along time and we noticed it from the beginning of their partnership that he had the hots for her...you just wouldn't admit it."
Forehike walked up to Langley, pointing in his face. "At least she's real...whatdayou have Langley...some cyber babe and you Byers...you only have the memory of Susanne Modeski whose off doing god knows what...at least she's real!"
"And not yours!", Langley added. "She's his...you need to face facts man..."
"I'll face facts when you do," he said, returning to the door, and knocking hard.
Mulder had stripped down to his boxers and was relaxing on his side of the bed. He turned the t.v up loud to drown out the Gunmen's squabbling. Scully brushed her teeth as she stood in the bathroom, dressed in silk lingerie. She could see Mulder from where she stood. "Don't even think we're gonna do anything tonight with the gunmen five feet away..."
"I know...," he said, "Plus they'd probably tape us..."
"What?", she said alarmed.
"Nothing...," he smiled. "Plus they're arguing over who you belong too..."
Scully poked her head out of the doorway. "They don't know by now?"
"Guess not," he smiled. "Maybe we should show them!"
"Mulder!", she screamed.
Mulder smiled, spitting a sunflower seed across the room. It landed on the t.v screen. He got up and wiped it off and then noticed a knocking from the adjoinging room door. He shot a look to Scully and she quickly closed the bathroom door as he threw open the door separating him from the Gunmen. "By the way fellas...she belongs to me!", he said, staring down at Froehike.
He was sure Froehike wanted to punch him but he could tell he was too stunned to react. Mulder carefully closed the door back behind him and walked into the room with the three Gunmen. "We were just about to go to sleep..."
Froehike looked down and then pushed past Mulder sitting back at the table. Byers looked shyly at Froehike and then turned to Mulder. "Fort Benjamin Harrison...Lawrence, Indiana outside Indianapolis."
"Formerly called Fort Harrison," Langely added. "Decommission base that is still active...parts of it that is. Looks like the perfect place to hide an alien human hybrid...even if its temporary. They'd probably move the body to Area 51 after that..."
"So we're running out of time...", Mulder said.
"Looks that way," Byers stated, shooting a look at Froehike who was uncharacteristically quiet. "So, 3 am, Mulder?"
"Yep...get that sleep...We maybe breaking into an army facility in the morning!", he said, opening the door again. "Night..."
Froehike watched as the door closed. Byers and Langley were staring at him. "Who sleeps in the van..who sleeps in the bed and who sleeps in the chair?", he asked, trying to deflect the attention from himself.
Langley patted his shoulder. "Sorry man..."
Froehike smirked. "I think I like blonds now..."
Mulder climbed back into the bed, turning up the television, waiting for Scully to finish her nightly rituals. She came back into the room and then sat down on her side of the bed, mulling over test results. "These findings are strange Mulder...according to this only the mother's nucleous D.N.A could be sequenced. According to this the father's is unknown...none existent...that's impossible!"
She handed the papers to him. "That can't be Mulder...according to this Autosomal D.N.A test, the father's Y chromosome doesn't exist...as if they had no father or...or..."
"The father was not human and therefore doesn't have human D.N.A," he said, watching her as she shook her head slightly.
"I understand," she said, looking at the paper in his hand. "But its still shocking...Did we make this or did they?"
"That's what we need to find out...but I don't think Aliens eat McDonalds, Scully."
Scully rolled her eyes and placed the paper on the night stand. She slunk down in the bed and pulled Mulder down next to her, laying her head on his chest. "We've got to get up in just a few hours...lets get some sleep..."
"Alright," he said, turning off the t.v and switching off the lamp.
"You did lock the door, didn't you Mulder?"
"You think I want Froehike sneaking in and curling up to you at night? Of course I did," he smiled.
"Ugh...thanks for the thought, Mulder," she said, playfully slapping his chin. "Get some sleep..."
"I will...," he said, snuggling up against her, wrapping her in his arms. "You belong to me," he whispered.
Scully smiled as she closed her eyes.
