Disclaimer: The wonder enigmatic Scully is only a mere creation of the
also enigmatic mind of Chris Carter. I probably could never think of a
wonderful character like Scully so I have borrowed this from Chris and
manipulated her thoughts. Hope it's OK with you Chris and even if it
is don't try to sue me cuz I don't have any money!
Story Summary: Scully's thoughts on death.


I use to love sunsets. I'd love to watch the sun slowly recede from
the skies yet always know that it will be there tomorrow. Now I hate
sunsets. I hate to see the sun wither away from the heavens and
leave me in darkness unsure if there would be a tomorrow.
I have to admit that the scenery is lovely. The ocean- calm and
reflective.
The air- sweet and fresh. The sand-seeping through my toes. I wish
I could spend forever here watching the sun, staring into the sun
until it no longer blinds me. I don't know why I still come here to
watch the sunset.
For everytime I see it, I know it's one day closer to the day I leave
this life. Perhaps it's because it makes me feel like I've sunken into
the shadows. It's pulled me far from this darkness, far from my
misery.
It's like I can walk into the sun and become part of it, forever
glowing and radiating.
Shining onto parts of the world I never knew of but I believe, that it
would be awfully lonely there with no companion or good friend to
stand by my side. Perhaps, that's what I fear most about death,
leaving the ones I love and care for the most behind me as I
walk past the doors from where I know I can't return. And it feels
as though I must continue walking beyond this point and with
each step leave the world I grew in further behind.

The End
Comments of any kind are accepted at leighcia@hotmail.com. It
doesn't seem very Scully-like to me but anyway... I know it doesn't
make much sense because it changes from hating the sunset into
wanting to be part of it but in a way it works because on the inside,
Scully's having battle with herself.
