This is my first attempt, I dont know if its any good, so comments on whether or not I should keep going would be most appriecieated. Sorry in advance for any spelling errors - they're probaly typing mistakes - also, this contains some S&M romance, so if you hate that kind of thing, better stop reading now...... DISCLAIMERS: All the usual disclaimers apply.....CC, I love you, please dont sue me - it wouldn't be worth it - I'm really very poor!!! FBI Headquarters Washington DC 2.30pm Special Agents Fox Mulder and Dana Scully had just walked into the office they share when the phone started to ring. "Mulder, if you get that, I'll pick up the next lunch check", Scully commented, dropping into a chair, exshausted by the two hour meeting she and Mulder had just had with ASst. Director Skinner. They had just been put through the ringer for the last case they had worked on - once again, no arrests had been forthcoming, and she and Mulder ahad not even managed to close the case. "Mulder" "Mr Mulder" a dark voice said, "I have some information imperative to the return of someone close to you - a family member - meet me at the old Washington Meat processing plant midnight tonight - without Dana Scully - if you disobey my insturctions, she will be the first one to be hurt" "Wait, who is this, tell me your...... Damn!!" Mulder commented, as he slammed the phone down, and immeaditly started to pace the room. "Mulder, who was it, what the hell has happened?" Scully was beginnign to worry about her partners complextion, which was rapidly turning white. "Scully, they have information on her, somenone knows where she is.... I have to go, I have to find out..." "Mulder, sit down and start from the beginning - who was on the phone?" " I, I dont know, - all I know is that they have information onSamantha, and I have to find out what they know...." "Mulder, Mulder, look at me (my god, thought Scully, I'm so worried about him, I love him so...get a grip Dana, you can never tell him that, so dont even think it...) "Mulder, tell me what has happened, what did he say exactly?" Mulder concentrated on Scully's face (she is so beautiful - he thought, as he stared into her eyes - I wish I could tell her how much I.......) Mulder shook himself out of it - "Scully, all I know is that I have to meet him at 12 tonight, at alocation I'm not going to tell you about - this is personal, and I have to go alone" "But Mulder, this could be a ..... I know it could be, but I have to go Scully", he said urgently, gripping her shoulder, and staring into her eyes. "I have to find out if she is still alive, I need to know the truth - you know I could never live with myself if I didn't try to find her......." "Mulder, at least let me go with you - "I'll be backup, I'll stay out of sight, you know I can..." "Scully, I appreciate the offer, but you know I cant take you up on it, I've got to go alone". Mulder started to put on his jacket and began for the door, stopping briefly to squeeze her hand. "I'll call you as soon as I get something". "Mulder" Scully called, as he was nearly out the door - "Mulder, I just wanted to tell you, I...." Mulder looked into his partners eyes, and saw that they were suspiciously moist. "Scully, what is it? I'm going to be fine, you know that..." "Mulder, just be careful, OK - and look after yourself" Mulder stopped at the door - and looked deeply into his partners eyes - "II'm going to be fine - I'll call you, - OK". Scully watched as he strode out of the room. "you'll be fine Mulder, because I'll be there to see that you are" End Part 1 So, what do you think, keep on going, or stop before it gets worse???

All comments and opinions much apprecieated - please tell me if I should keep on going after this one, or just stop it there - if its getting too mushy, etc. thanks! The story continues....... 12.00 Midnight Washington Meat Processing Plant Mulder looked around the darkend plant and waited. Even with all his FBI training and experience, his heart was still pounding like anything, and the sweat was starting to form on his forehead. The only thought that gave him any comfort was the fact that Scully was sitting safely at home. " At least if anything happens, she wont be involved; she'll be safe" thought Mulder, as he turned towards the footsteps that were approaching. He tried to make out the figure that was coming toward him - there was something familiar about it........ "Agent Mulder, so good to see you again, it's been too long" - Alex Krycheck came into full view as Mulder began to draw his weapon "I wouldn't try that if I were you, there are at least three guns trained on you as we speak" Krycheck continued, grinning, as Mulder slowly put his weapon down "Krycheck, you son of a........." "Drop your weapon, Kryckeck, and put your hands above your head - FBI" Scully came into view, her gun trained on Krycheck as she advanced slowly foward. "Agent Scully, it's so lovely to see your beautiful face" Krycheck commented, as he turned away from Mulder, to face Scully - "its a shame we had to meet under such unfortunate circumstances......." At that moment, a man suddenly seemed to appear from nowhere, and tackle Scully to the ground. "Scully" Mulder yelled, as he wrestled with Krycheck, for control of his gun. "Give it up Mulder, he suddenly heard a voice yell "We've got her, and if you dont want her dead, you'll release Krycheck immeaditely! Mulder grudingly pushed Krycheck away, and looked over to where two men were now holding a struggling Scully. Krycheck recovered himself at once, and once again, trained his gun on Mulder, while motioning for the men holding Scully to bring her over to where he and Mulder where standing. "It's really a shame you had to go this way, Dana" Krycheck commented, as he began to walk them along with the gun. You really are a beautiful woman. I wanted it to end quickly for you, one shot, and it's all over. Now I suppose you want to die with your partner, the hard way??" "Krycheck, this is between you and me, leave her out of it" Mulder said calmly, but not really believing this was happening. He couldn't believe Scully had followed him, and put herself in this much danger - if they did get out of this alive, he was going to make sure it never happened agian. "Mulder, dont" Scully whispered, as they kept walking. "It was my decision". "I'm sorry Agent Mulder, but now that Agent Scully has seen me, she too must perish with you. And of course, being the good friends we are, I wanted to make your stay with me as pleasurable as possible. Thats why, in this summer heat, I arranged for you, and now for Agent Scully as well, to spend some time in this deep frezzer. The only draw back is, that when I come back to get you in 24 hours time, you will probaly be all frozen out". With those last words, Krycheck instructed his men to shove Scully and Mulder into a deep freezer, about the size of a high school locker room, and locked the door shut behind them End Part II Well, what did you think, should I keep going??? Or has this gotten totally pathetic???

All the usual disclaimers apply - CC, I love you, please dont sue me!! the story continues......... Part III Washington Meat Processing Plant 1.30am "Scully, its really starting to get cold in here", Mulder commented, as he took her hands once again to start to rub them, and keep them warm. "I cant believe you followed me - if we do get out of this alive, I'm going to kill you!!" he continued, with a small attempt at humour. "Mulder, I think we've already been down this road, dont you?" Scully replied, as she moved a little closer to him, to conserve body heat. All Mulder had done for the first hour they had been in the frezzer was to blast her for following him when she shouldn't have. She knew it was out of natural concern for her, but she was getting a little weary of it. "I know, I know, I'm sorry" Mulder said, as he accomodated her by putting his arm around her. This was sheer torture for Mulder. He had almost got her killed once, and now here she was again, probaly going to die, and all because of him. The other problem was the proximity in which they were sitting. He had tried to keep his feelings for Scully purely proffessional for three years, and at times like these he wondered how he did it. Even though it was nearly below freezing in the locker they were stuck in, he could not stop his body or heart responding to her when she was so near. "Mulder, stop feeling guilty" Scully read half of his feelings accurately, anyway. "It's not your fault I'm here - You should have known I wouldn't have let you come by yourself - I wouldn't let you ditch me again!" "Scully, maybe these still a chance of one of us surviving. Maybe if I gave you all of my........." "Mulder, we've already had this argument once before, and you know the answer" Scully cut him off before he could continue. "We're in this together, and thats the way its going to stay......." "Dammit Dana, I dont care about me, just as long as you survive, it doesn't matter" Mulder suddenly exploded, stunning Scully with the emotion in his voice - they had been in life threatening situations before, but he had never lost control like this. He was gripping her arms now, nearly shaking her shoulders to emphasise his point. "You are the only person in my life that I have truly loved.....I dont care about......." "Mulder, I dont know what to say, I................why haven't you told me before, I never knew you felt the same.......... Now it was Mulder's turn to be surprised - he looked into her eyes deeply, and suddenly saw what he had known, deep down, for the past three years - they were more than partners, they were soul mates, in every way - and, she loved him as well. She had kept it so well hidden, just as he had. Suddenly he had flashes from the past - the way she had looked at him after he wiped the sauce off her face - he couldn't help it, the way she smiled at him when he had woken up in Alaska - he had pushed it into the back of his mind, thinking he had just been daydreaming - but he suddenly realised that he hadn't, that she felf the same way - and it made him all the more determined for her to survive this - with or without him, because she had just given him the thing he had wanted most - her love.

Keep the feedback coming, God knows, I need it!!! All the usual disclaimers apply....CC, I love you, please dont sue me!!! The story continues... Washington Meat Processing Plant 3.00am Scully couldn't believe the emotion she was reading in Mulder's eyes. It was like the three years she had struggled to keep the feelings she didn't even know she had about him under control had dissapeared into thin air. She was suddenly reminded of all the times in the past where she could have sworn she had seen something in his eyes that told her.....when she had woken up from her coma, the smile he had given her as he came into to visit her....the endless times he had touched her shoulder or back - the way he had stroked her face after he had rescued her from certain death in the Chaco Chicken case - all of these moments suddenly became clear to her - she and Mulder were meant to be together - always - no matter what happened. She wouldn't let him sacrifice himself to save her - what good would she be without him, anyway? "Mulder, I know what you're thinking, but I'm not going to let you do it - Scully took a deep breath - I love you too much to let you do it". Mulder was stunned by the wealth of emotion he was hearing in Scully's voice. "Dana, *I* love you too much too let you die like this - this is my fault and........" Scully forgot how cold she was as she heard his voice crack. She clung to him even tighter than she already was, to emphasize the point she was about to make. "Mulder, if you loved me as much as you say you do, you'd realize that my life without you wouldn't be one I would want to live - the only life I want to live is a life with you - you should know that....." Dana had to stop as Mulder silenced what she was about to say that with a kiss. Even though their lips were like ice, the passion they felt for one another could not be denied. Mulder realized as he was kissing Scully that she was right. They had always done everything together, and knew that if situations were reversed, he would not want to live without her. Scully was the first to break away from the embrace, needing to calm down before speaking again - she had to convince him that it wasn't his fault. But when she looked into his eyes, she was once again overwhelmed by the love she saw in them - something that she had only dreamed about, not ever thinking it would be a reality. "Mulder...." "Dana..." Suddenly, they both heard a noise, and turned towards the door Krycheck had slammed behind them 3 long hours ago..................................

Someone said I should try and write more each story - its just that I have a short concentration span and I'm scared if I write too much at once it will be really terrible...All the usual disclaimer apply...CC I love you, please dont sue me!!! Maryland Hospital 9.00am (next day) Mulder slowly opened his eyes, and looked around him. He was in a white, sterile room with soft lighting. For a minute he didn't know where he was, until he remembered....Skinner!! Just as he and Scully had been telling each other how they really felt, Skinner had decided to rescue them. They had been seperated and taken in different ambulances to hospital, where they had then been treated for hypothermia and shock. Mulder wondered how he had got to sleep - someone must have injected him with something - the last thing he could remember was demanding to see Scully, and see if she was alright. When they had been taken out of the freezer, he had noticed she had need more help to stand than he did. He began to ring the buzzer every two seconds, knowing it was the only way to get a nurse into the room. "Agent Mulder, nice to see you up and....." " Where's agent Scully? What room is she in?" Mudler demanded, as he began to get up from the bed, slowly and painfully.] "Agent Mulder, I dont think that it's wise for you to be out of bed so....." the nurse continued, trying to get him back into the bed - "Agent Scully is still in intensive care, she isn't being allowed any visitors, except for family." Mulder felt as if someone had kicked him in the stomach. He sat down on the bed, staring at the nurse blindly. "what do you mean, intensive care - she wasn't that bad when I saw her last - what happened to her - what have you done to her?" Mulder felt himself starting to loose control. This was just like the last time....and it was all his fault. "Agent Mulder, I'd advise you to stay in bed - you're not one hundred percent yourself" - assistant director Walter Skinner walked in the room, and motioned for the nurse to leave. Mulder tried to bring himself under control, and motioned for the director to take a seat. "Whats happened to Scully, why is she in intensive care, why wasn't I told sooner?" Mulder demanded, as soon as the nurse had left the room. "Agent Scully went into hypothermic shock in the ambulance on the way to the hospital" Skinner said calmly, noting how Mulders face had lost it's colour at the last statement he had made. "She is responding well to treatment and we expect her to be out of intensive care by tomorrow morning". "When can I see her" - Mulder demanded, his colour coming back a little after hearing all Skinner had to say - he tried to appear calm, but all he could think was I almost lost her again, it was my fault, I've got to see her! "Agent Mulder, you wont be seeing anyone until you explain to me how you and Agent Scully got into that situation in the first place. You're damned lucky that we found you at all. Another hour or two in that freezer and you and Scully would have been dead!" "Sir, I'm sorry, but the only thing that matters to me at the moment is Agent Scully's health. I'll have a full report into you by the end of the week, but I really need to see with my own eyes that she is OK. I feel responsible for her condition". Mulder appealed, looking away from the director as he spoke that last sentence. "Very well, Agent Mulder" Skinner sighed, as he got up from his chair. "I expect to see a full report on my desk by Monday, next week, giving you and Scully a week to recover from this ordeal. I'll speak to Scully's doctor and let him know your coming to see her. I believe her mother will be here by the end of the day, I've no doubt you will fill her in on Scully's condition". "Thank - you sir" Mulder said, as he began to buzz for the nurse again. "oh sir", Mulder called as Skinner was at the door "how did you know where we were?" Skinner nearly smiled as he answered Mulders question. "You're not the only one with friends in high places, Mulder", he commented simply, as he let himself out of the room. Mulder stared at the door the asst. director had just walked through. All he could think about was seeing Scully. Would she remember all that they had said? Had she really meant it? He started to get out of bed as the nurse entered the room with a wheelchair. "Intensive care, please", was all he said, as he got into the chair, and was wheeled slowly out of the room.

Sorry if I havent gotten back to you, but I should be doing an assignment instead of doing this, and as soon as the work load slows down I promise I will answer everyone. I dont know if this will be the last part, as I am really starting to get sick of this story. Like I said before - short attention span. As always, feedback and comments are welcome....if you really want me to keep going after this one, drop me a line...... All the usual disclaimers apply - CC, I love you, dont sue me!!!! the story continues......... Maryland Hospital 11 am Special Agent Dana Scully's hospital room Dana could hear someone talking to her - the voice sounded very familiar - but she was so tired, if only she could sleep a little bit longer - she just wanted to stay in this dreamy state forever - but the voice kept on asking her to open her eyes, to wake up - someone was holding her hand - but in a nice way - not too tightly, just enough to make her wonder who it was - maybe she should open her eyes, just to see......... " Nurse, she's coming out of it, she's waking up" Fox Mulder felt a silly grin light up his face, and for once, didn't care who saw it. " Scully, can you hear me - it's Mulder......" He stopped speaking as Dana opened her eyes and stared at him. As she looked into his face, it all came back to her.... Skinner bursting in on them, just as they were about to reveal their true feelings to one another.... the ride to the hospital, and the blackness that followed......she must be in hospital, but as she looked around, she realised she was in intensive care, and not a normal room........... "Mulder, why are we in intensive care? What happened...we weren't that bad, where we?" Mulder looked into his partners eyes and thanked God she was alright. He had seen the minute she opened them that she remembered, and that she still felt the same way. The fact that she had asked for an explantion as soon as she woke up told him that she was well on her way to a full recovery. "Dana, dont get excited" - he wasn't aware that he had used her first name - whenever he was worried about her, it just seemed to slip unnoticed - "eveything's fine. They're just keeping you in here to be safe - on the way to the hospital, you went into hypothermic shock and you've been up here for two days - you're going to be fine, I promise". Scully saw the guilt on her partners face as he talked about what had happened to her. He was doing it again - blaming everything that had happened to her on himself. She gripped his hand tighter to reassure him "Mulder, I ......." "Agent Scully, its good to see you awake", the doctor who was looking after her came in and looked at her chart. "How do you feel?" " Scully tore her eyes away from Mulders face to address the doctor. "Doctor um, Graldlos, I feel fine, in fact, I'm wondering why I'm in intensive care at all. Isn't time I was moved to a normal room?" "Dont you love it how doctors always think they know what's best for themselves" the doctor joked with Mulder, who had risen to greet him. " Scully, dont you think you could stay in here a little longer?" Mulder, asked, his eyes moving over her pale face. "One more night isn't going to hurt, is it?" he continued, giving her his nicest smile. "Well, no, I guess not", Dana commented, hating herself for falling for that smile - again. "Then it's settled" the doctor said, replacing Scully's chart and checking her statistics. "If you keep on progressing as you do, We'll move you into a normal ward tomorrow, and you should be out by the end of the week. But I want you to take a week off after that - you've been through a trying ordeal, and a week of complete bedrest is something that should help immensly" . the doctor continued. "Dont worry, doctor, I'm going to be right there making sure she doesn't do anything", Mulder broke in, with his best FBI voice, trying to get the doctor to move along. "I'm being discharged tomorrow, and I'll make sure all of the arrangments are made for Agent Scullys are finalised by the time she gets out of hospital." "Splendid, Agent Mulder, I'll leave it to you then" was the doctor's last comment, before moved onto his next paitent. "Mulder, what do you mean, *arrangments for my care* - I can look after myself, I'll be fine once I have a few days bedrest in hospital..." "No Dana" Mulder said, taking the chair beside her bed again, and smoothing her hair away from her eyes, "You're coming home with me, or I'm moving in with you....I'm going to take care of you, and while I do that, we're going to continue the conversation that started in the freezer - and this time, we're going to come to a proper conclusion........" =========================================================================== Newsgroups: alt.tv.x-files.creative From: bwaw@gil.ipswichcity.qld.gov.au (bruce weatherhog) Subject: NEW: The Sister 7/? Date: Thu, 5 Oct 1995 15:01:10 GMT Just wanted to thank everyone that wrote and encouraged me.....sorry its taken to long to get here, I shouldn't even be doing it now, but what the hell....All the usual disclaimers apply - CC, I love you, please dont sue me!! Dana Scullys Residence One Week Later.... Fox Mulder gently laid his partner on the couch and settled the blankets around her. Despite her howls of protest, he had carried her from the Cab that had taken them from the hospital to her apartment. "Mulder", said Scully, still fuming, but at the same time, extremely touched, "that really wasn't necesary - I can walk perfectly fine - I should know, I'm am a doctor!" "Scully,", Mulder replied, using his best FBI voice, "for the next week you are under MY care - they only released you because I said I'd look after you - so for one week we get to do things MY way or you can go back to hospital". Mulder nearly laughed out loud when he saw Scully's expression. She was gazing at him as if he had grown two heads. He had never used that tone of voice with her before, but he figured it would be the only way he could get her to shut up and try and get some rest - she still looked too pale and washed out - she had lost weight and her face seemed drawn and tired. "My fault" Mulder thought, for the millionth time. "How could I put her in danger like that? I shouldnt have told her I had anything - should have just walked straight out as soon as I got that call - if I had, she'd be OK and....." "Mulder, hey, Mulder, come back........" Scully was concerned as she saw Mulder's face change - she could tell he was thinking about the danger she had been in - she knew that guilty look - after she had been abducted, she had seen it almost daily - before this latest ordeal, she hoped that she'd never have to see it again. Mulder sat beside his partner on the couch and decided that now was a good as time as any to have that little talk they had started in the freezer - it had been virtually impossible to do so in the hospital - every five minutes Scully had either had visitors or some more nurses coming in to take more samples or change something or other......but now it was the two of them, and Mulder knew that this was the right time..... "Dana", he started, taking her hand and turning towards her on the couch "we have to talk - about what happened in the Frezzer that night." Dana Scully had been half dreading and half waiting for this moment for three years. She couldn't pretend that she didn't have feelings for him anymore. She looked at him, and the love he saw in her eyes nearly blew him away. "I know, Mulder", she replied quietly, squeezing his hand and moving closer to him - "you know how I feel, and I know how you feel. The question is, what are we going to do about it?" Mulder hadn't been expecting this. He thought he'd have to talk for a half an hour at least before he got to open up to him. "Dana, you know I love you more than anything in the world", he began, looking her straight in the eye. "After Sam I thought I'd never be able to love anyone again, but when you walked into our office three years ago, deep down I knew that wasn't true. I know you want to further your career. I know that being involved with your partner is against Beauru policy, and I know how damaging it could be to you if we did become more involved and they found out. That's the only reason I haven't told you what I felt sooner......." "Mulder" Dana cut him off, tears in her eyes as she looked at him "I dont care anymore. When we nearly died in that freezer, I realised that none of it really mattered if I didn't have you, I knew that I'd be lost without you.....what I mean to say is I can handle it if you can......" What Dana had been about to say was lost forever as Mulder took her in his arms and started to kiss her as if he would never stop. They both knew that the future would hold further dangers, but at the moment it seemed like another world away. All that mattered was that they had each other, now and forever. THE END Yeah!!!! I finished it!!!! I think I'll take a break from this writing thing now, but all comments on this last instalment are very welcome and apreciated...I think that when I get my creative juices flowing again I'll write a sequel that deals with what happened with Krycheck, etc, if people would like to read it - mail me and tell me - once again, thanks to everyone who wrote - you guys are totally cool!!!
