Agent Dana Scully walked down the hall to the X-Files office.On the way
she dodge a fallen filing cabinet, 2 people coming from the records room
and what she thought might be a rat. As she opened the door she wished the
office was upstairs. Mulder was sitting at his desk snoring. He had still
been working when she left the night before.
"Mulder? HEY MULDER!"she said. He slept on so she tried a different
approach. She knelt down and said,
"Fox?"
"Ugh...I hate that name."he moaned. She smiled and nodded and sat down.
"Did I fall asleep?"he asked.
"I'll say so, it's 2003 I'm the head of the FBI."
"Cool. Do I get a raise?"
"Pay? Oh, we don't pay anymore."
"Funny Scully. There's plenty more paper work."he said as he flipped a few
pounds of paper to her side of the desk.
"Yay."she said. As they worked the time passed.
"Lunch hour Scully. My treat today."he said. Scully looked at the clock
then grabbed her coat.
"Pizza?"she asked.
"Yeah. I could live on that and Taco Bell."said Mulder.
"You do."Scully reminded him. They walked until they came to the piza
place.
"Pepperoni?"he asked.
"And red peppers."she ammended.
"Suits me."said Mulder as they sat at a booth. The waitress took their
order and then left to fill them.
"It's been a pretty nice winter so far, huh Scully?"asked Mulder.
"Yeah. Almost time for Christmas. Speaking of which you wanna' join
us?"asked Scully.
"Uh........well, I don't want to intrude."said Mulder uncomfortably .
"Mulder, don't those Swanson Christmas dinners get boring?"asked Scully.
"Hey, what makes you think I don't cook?"asked Mulder.
"Mulder....I know you."
"A little too well."grumbled Mudler with mock belidgerance.
"Mulder, Mom keeps saying invite Fox over. Invite Fox over."
"Alright, I'll come. Only if I can help with the dishes."he said.
"Uh.....is that...safe?"
"Absolutely, Miss Scully."he said with mock arrogance.
"Yeah okay."
"But I withhold right to bail if any bonding occurs."joked Mulder.
"So do I."shot back Scully.
"Here is your order sir, ma'am."said the waitress as she brought over the
pizza. Mulder paid her and took a slice.
"I....."began Scully but she was cut off by a scream. A man was at the
counter, wearing a ski mask, holding a gun.
"I want all your money and valubles! Right now only one person dies
because of that scream!"scremed the man in a heavy accent. When he came to
Mulder and Scully, Mulder stuck his had in his pocket to withdraw a
wallet, Scully whipped out her gun , but the man knocked it from her hand.
"Well, pretty lady. Today you die."said the man in a malignant voice.
Mulder's blood ran cold and he remembered how his sister was torn from his
life so violently. He would not allow that to happen to Scully. He whipped
the gun out and rammed it into the man's back while knocking away the gun.
The man leapt into Scully, intent to kill her. But he never made it,
alive. Mulder fired and killed him. The man flew sideways over the booth
leaving blood all over the pizza, table, and Scully. Mulder asked if
everyone was okay. Then sent someone to call the cops. He helped Scully
clean some of the blood of her jacket.
"Well, now I know what you need for Christmas."said Mulder.He left a large
tip for the waitress and answered the police's questions. Then they left.
Just another day.
