Communication Breakdown

It was half an hour later when everyone met down at the lake with their swimsuits on. Mulder smiled as Scully walked through the crowd, he stared…well, really stared. He couldn't take his eyes off her silhouette that was wrapped in a black one piece swimsuit and a thin piece of material wrapped around her waist. Scully noticed his stared

"Carefully or you might burn your eyes out if you stare too hard" Mulder swallowed

"If I go blind it'll all be worth it" He replied as Scully stood next to him. She gave him a once over

"Yes it will be" Mulder wasn't sure what she meant and was about to say something when Myers and Harp joined them

"Hello" Harp greeted. Mulder gave her a once over, she didn't look half bad in that pair of swimmers. Just then something slapped him on the back of the head

"Ow!" He rubbed it and looked at Scully. "What was that for?"

"You know what it was for" She replied, just then she noticed an intruding stare coming from none other than George Myers. She put a hand on her hip "Take a picture it'll last longer."

"Wait, you mean I have your permission?" Scully just rolled her eyes as Miss Swan walked out and stood on the peer.

"Ok now that we are all in our swimmers lets begin… This exercise is to show our partners we can trust them with our lives. As I call your name one of you must jump into the water, swim out a little and pretend to drown, then the other agent must save them" Myers nudge Scully

"Oh I can't wait to save you" He said seductively. Scully rolled her eyes as Mulder overheard. Mulder edged his way next to Myers and elbowed him

"Ow! watch it!" Mulder stood in front of him

"Look at her the wrong way and watchout" Mulder warned. Myers just smiled

"Too late for that Agent Mulder" Everyone watched as every agent got their turn at saving each other. Mulder smiled when it was Scully and Harps turn. Michelle jumped in and swam out, Scully waited until she was given the signal then she jumped in after her.

"Ooh she's hot when she's saving lives" Myers noted under his breath. Mulder glared at him.

"Myers..." He warned but George just shrugged.

"What? I'm not the only one thinking it." He motioned to the other male agents smiling as they watched on. Mulder just gave him a warning stare before turning back. After a few minutes Harp and Scully were back at the peer. Mulder and Myers helped them out.

"Good save Agent Scully" Harp said to her. Scully smiled

"Thanks" Just then Miss Swan spoke.

"Ok, Agent Mulder you will be saving Agent Myers" They both groaned but she gave them the eye. "Now"

"Alright, don't get your knickers in a knot." Myers said putting his hands up. Karen glared at him before he turned around and jumped in the water with a large splash. He swam out and started to 'drown.' Karen motioned to Mulder. Mulder just stood there, hands crossed.

"He's not drowned enough yet, he's still breathing, the bacon hasn't kicked in yet." He said, laughter could be heard in the background. Karen's eyes narrowed.

"Agent Mulder" She said sternly. Mulder rolled his eyes

"Oh Alright" Mulder turned and looked for Myers but he had disappeared "What the?…Scully?" Scully ran over to him and stood on the edge, peering out over the water.

"I don't see him" She replied. Suddenly without warning Myers burst out of the water and grabbed Scully's leg and pulled her in with him. Mulder tried to grab her but he just wasn't fast enough. Mulder watched as Myers dragged Scully out into the middle of the lake

"She's mine now Spooky!" Myers laughed as Scully struggled but couldn't get free. Mulder didn't even think, he just jumped in and started to swim.

"I'll get you Myers!" Mulder yelled as he went.

"Let go of me!" Scully growled then she elbowed him in the ribs as Mulder approached.

"Ow!" Myers let go of Scully as Mulder reached them.

"God! You're impossible!" Scully said annoyed as Mulder took her hand and pulled her close. Myers just put his arms out.

"Aw come on! I was only having some fun!" He yelled as they started to swim back.

"Well have it some place else!" Mulder yelled back. Just then Myers froze

"Something touched my leg!" Mulder and Scully just ignored him.

"We're not falling for that!" Scully yelled back. Myers spun around scanning the water.

"Ah! There it is again!" He screamed as something swam passed him. Mulder and Scully both stopped and turned back.

"Myers stop being such a…" Mulder stopped in mid sentence as a pair of eyes appeared above the water. Mulder and Scully's mouth fell open. "Myers get out of there!" Myers swung around and froze as he saw the eyes coming towards him. Miss Swan and the others hurried to help.

'Oh God, why didn't I just drown when I had the chance' Myers thought as he slowly backed up. The eyes started to drift towards him making growling sounds. "Nice alligator, I know I ate a lot of bacon this morning but that doesn't mean I'll taste good" Myers said as he kept backing up

"Myers we're coming!" Scully shouted as they started to swim towards him. Suddenly the eyes lowered and disappeared.

"Oh this can't be good" Myers said as he started to back up quicker.

"Myers hold on!" Mulder and Scully were nearly to him when suddenly he vanished under the water. Mulder and Scully stopped as the water went still

"Damn it! He's not supposed to go like this, he's not that lucky!" Mulder and Scully scanned the water then they heard splashing behind them. They spun around to see Agent Harp approaching

"Harp what are you doing?…" Scully started, just then Harp raised her hands out of the water holding a saucepan and a rock. Mulder smiled

"You are something different Agent Harp" He said taking the saucepan. Just then bubbles started to rise then splashing started. Mulder, Scully and Harp all stared as Myers burst out of the water.

"Help!" He managed before he was dragged back under. Harp was the first one to start swimming towards him followed but Mulder and Scully

"Hold on Myers! We're coming!"
