Blair ---------------------------------------------- FBI Headquarters Violent Crimes Section Washington DC Tuesday, 9:30 a.m. Emily Samantha Mulder sat down at her desk going through cases for her partner, Jordan Black, when her partner approached her. "How was your Christmas, Jordan?" Emily asked, her hazel eyes twinkling as she smoothed down her long, wavy, medium brown hair. She had her mother's height and her strength of her beliefs. In looks and personality, she was her father's daughter. "It was all right," Jordan replied, as she sat down at her desk which was next to Emily's. She was a pretty woman in her early thirties with long, curly brown hair and brown eyes. "How was your trip to San Diego?" "It was a very exciting trip. That's for sure. My sister, Dana, discovered that she has a little girl named Sarah Dana Scully. She was raised by our Aunt Melissa whom we thought was dead--" "Wow! Emily, you have an exciting life," Jordan replied. She looked concerned for a moment when she noticed that her partner looked kind of ill. "Are you all right, Emily?" "I'm fine," Emily replied. Like her mother, Dana Scully-Mulder, it was her famous non-answer. It was a Scully lie which she had seen her mother and her sister, Dana, use on occasion. "Are you sure?" Jordan asked. She was concerned for her friend. She looked awfully pale. "Is there something wrong?" "Well, I feel awfully weak," Emily sighed. "It's probably to do with a lot of things." "Maybe you should go see a doctor?" Jordan suggested, concerned. "I know how much the last case wore you down." "My mother is a doctor," Emily sighed. "And I don't want to tell her. It might make her worried. She has been through so much because of Dana, and I don't want to add to her pain." "You have to check this out, Emmy. You have to," Jordan replied. She paused. She had a vision of a redhaired girl in trouble. She looked up to see her partner who was now concerned for her. "Are you having an another vision, Jordan?" Emily asked, softly. She understood Jordan's visions as she knew what it was like to have loops of logic in solving cases. She had inherited her father, Fox Mulder's knack of solving cases. Holy Cross Memorial Hospital Washington DC Same day and time An auburn haired young woman with blue-green eyes was delivered to the hospital comatose. The doctors had no idea what was going on with her, and didn't know her name. "There's nothing on her," replied an EMT. "We found her by a roadside. She's still alive for the moment." "I wish we knew who to contact," another EMT sighed. FBI Headquarters X-Files Divison Dana Mulder and Chris Krycek's Office Washington DC Tuesday, 10:30 a.m. "Dana, aren't we going to have an easy load since you're in your fifth month of pregnancy?" Chris Krycek asked, as he was carrying a file in his hand to his desk. "When my Mom was carrying Fox and I, they had a heavy load of cases. We also have to plan the wedding," Dana Katherine Mulder replied, as she was sitting at her desk trying to work on some paperwork. She looked radiant as she glowed in her pregnancy with her shoulder-length auburn hair which was brushed to the side in a flattering hairstyle and her blue-green eyes were sparkling as she was enjoying her pregnancy. She was still looked youthful at age twenty-nine. "I know. Do you want a small wedding or a large wedding?" Chris asked. Dana looked thoughtful for a moment. "Hmmm. I would like an intimate wedding. How about you?" She looked up at her fiance and partner. "I think that it will be all right, and little Sarah can be our flower girl. You know, I know that she isn't really my daughter, but I think of her as our child. Dana, I would like her to be Sarah Dana Krycek," Chris smiled. "Is that all right with you." "That's fine with me. In fact, it's more than fine," Dana replied, as she got up from her desk and walked towards her fiance to embrace him. "I'm glad that you love the idea, Dana." "Me too," Dana replied. The phone rang, and she went to her desk to answer the phone. "Dana Mulder." "Soon to be Dana Mulder-Krycek," Chris smiled, as he watched her taking the call. "Dana, thank God that you are all right," Emily replied. She was at the Holy Cross Memorial Hospital with her partner, Jordan Black. "Of course I am fine," Dana replied. "Why did you think that I wasn't?" "It was one of Jordan's visions. She thought that an auburn haired, blue-green eyed woman needed help. Then, we got a call from Holy Cross Hospital saying that they had found a woman matching a description...and I thought that something had happened to Mom or to you," Emily sighed, into the phone. "Someone who looks like me was brought into the hospital," Dana sighed. "How is her condition?" "She's in a coma," Emily replied. She paused. "What do you think they should do?" "Never mind that, I will come to the hospital," Dana answered. "Dana, are you sure?" Emily asked. "You have enough problems as it is..." "I think that I can handle this, Emily," Dana replied. After saying goodbye to her sister, she placed the receiver down. She looked up at Chris with a concerned expression on her face. "Someone who looks like me is at the Holy Cross Hospital is comatose. My sister thought that it was me...at first. This sounds like an abduction type scenario. I think that we should go check things out..." "I think that you're right," Chris answered. "Let's go." Holy Cross Hospital Intermediate Care Unit Tuesday, 10:43 a.m. Dana and Chris rushed towards the waiting room where Emily and Jordan said to meet them. "Thanks for the call, Emily. Had the doctor's run any tests on her?" Dana asked, as she sat down. "Not yet," Emily replied. "I was hoping that you would." "Maybe a DNA test?" Jordan suggested. Suddenly, she had a vision of the girl. "Jordan?" Chris asked. He looked at his former partner. "Are you having an another vision?" "Yes," Jordan said, in a small voice. She had the same visions as her father, Frank Black. "She was abducted several times." "Several times?" Chris asked. "How can that be?" "It can happen," Dana replied. "She was probably used as some kind of lab rat for tests. Were there any marks on the body?" "Not that I could tell," Emily replied. "I think that both of you should look at her, and tell us what you think." Dana walked into the hospital where the auburn haired woman was located, and she gasped. The woman looked like herself with auburn hair, creamy skin, and the china doll features. However, she was at least one year younger than she, and that would make Emily's age at age twenty-eight. "Oh my God," Dana said, softly as she went to the woman's bedside. "She looks like Mom and I." "What are you going to do?" Jordan asked. "We have to find out who she is." "I think that we already know," Emily replied. She couldn't understand it, but she had a strong connection to this woman on the bed. "I think that she is me." "What?" Dana asked. "How can she be you?" "Dani, I feel her pain. I think that she went through a horrible ordeal. She feels lost like she doesn't know who she is or what brought her to us," Emily answered. "Maybe you are just using your profiling skills like Dad," Dana suggested, concerned. "I don't see how---" "Dana, listen to me. I think that she and I are connected. Maybe you should order a DNA test," Emily replied. "I would like to see the results." "I'll do that," Dana replied. She went to talk to the doctor who was on the woman's case. She flashed her badge. "I'm Special Agent Dana Mulder, MD. and I was wondering if I can talk to you about this woman." "Sure, we still have no idea who she is," the doctor said, sighing. "I was wondering if I could run a DNA test," Dana replied. "Perhaps, this will give us some information regarding her identity." "You have my permission. Feel free to use one of the labs here," the doctor replied. "Thank you," Dana replied. She walked back to the bedside of her lookalike and took a sample of hair for the DNA test. Her cell phone rang, and she answered it. "Dana Mulder." "Dana, it's your mother," Dana Scully-Mulder replied. "Emily called here an hour ago, and she told me about this woman fitting our description. Any word?" "No...not yet. I will be doing a DNA test on her hopefully to find more about her," Dana replied. "Dana, there's something that I have to tell both Emily and you. I would like for the both of you to stop by..." "Mom, I'll be there," Dana replied. After talking to her mother a few minutes, she said goodbye to her mother. thought Dana. She saw her sister walk in the room. "Emily, Mom wants us to come by the house." "Why?" Emily asked. "Is there something wrong?" "I don't know. She has something to tell us," Dana answered. She drew a deep breath. "I think that it has to do with this woman." "I guess that we're going to find out," Emily replied. Dana and Fox Mulder's Residence Annapolis, MD Tuesday, Noon Dana Scully-Mulder looked at Emily's birth certificate. Under the heading of single, twin, triplet birth, it was written that the baby Emily was a twin and was the oldest born to her and her husband, Fox Mulder. "Dana? Are you all right?" Mulder asked, concerned. He noticed that she had out Emily's birth certificate out. "I'm fine," Scully replied. "You don't look that you're fine," Mulder replied. "Are you thinking about Emily's twin sister?" He paused. "It's been years since the kidnapping..." "No leads so far... Unless the woman they found is her," Scully replied. "Emily had thought that it was either Dana or myself." "Why would she think that?" Mulder asked, as he embraced his wife. "The woman looks like Dana and I," Scully replied. "Dana is running the DNA test on her." She paused. "What if the woman is our daughter, Gillian?" "Then we will face that bridge," Mulder replied. "I think that it's time for us to tell Dana and Emily about the kidnapping of their sister, Gillian Christina Mulder." "We hadn't seen her since she was a baby..." "I know, Dana," Mulder sighed. Holy Cross Memorial Hospital Same day and time Dana was in the lab as she was working on the DNA test of the woman. One of the doctors who was on the comatose woman's case walked in. "I have her DNA test, and I am going to get my DNA results faxed from the FBI Headquarters." She took out her cell phone, and dialed. "Agent Pendrell, can you please fax my DNA test?" She paused. "Thanks so much." A few seconds later, the fax had come in. Dana went to a table, and looked carefully at the results. She noticed that her results matched the woman's as they were similar. "Oh my God," Dana murmured softly. She walked out of the lab, carrying the fax as well as the results from the sample. She saw her sister in the waiting room. "Em, there's something that we have to talk about..." "What is it?" Emily asked, her hazel eyes were wide with interest. "Is there anything wrong?" Dana showed her sister the results. "There are similarities between my DNA and the woman's DNA." "This means we are related to her," Emily replied. "But how?" "I don't know," Dana sighed. "I think that Mom and Dad might know the answer." "This is probably what Mom wanted us home tonight," Emily replied. "I agree," Dana replied. She spotted Chris talking to Jordan. "Chris, Emily and I have to go to see our parents. There's something that we need to talk to them about." "All right, I'll talk to you later on tonight," Chris replied. "I'll see you then," Dana replied. She kissed him on the lips, and she waved goodbye to him. Chris and Jordan watched the sisters leave for their parents' residence. He turned towards her, and wondered what Dana had found out. "What do you think?" "They probably found out something about the woman," Jordan replied. "I don't know." Dana and Fox Mulder's Residence Annapolis, MD Same day, 1:00 p.m. "Mom, Dad, we're here," Dana called out from the living room as she and Emily walked in. "Your Mom and I are in the family room," Mulder called out. Dana and Emily walked towards the family room, and saw their parents sitting on a sofa. "What is it?" Dana asked, as she sat down on the chair. She watched her sister walked near where their parents were. "There's something that we have to tell you," Scully replied. She paused, and turned towards her older daughter. "Dana, do you have the results?" Dana nodded. "Can I see them?" Scully asked. Her daughter gave her the DNA results from the comatose woman and Dana's own. She saw the similarities. "Oh, God." She paused. "A long time ago, when I was carrying twins. One of them became Emily--" "Mom, I don't have a twin sister," Emily interrupted. "Yes, you do," Scully sighed. "Her name was Gillian Christina Mulder, and the two of you were fraternal twins." "Who did she look like?" Emily whispered. "She looked like your mother and your sister, Dana," Mulder replied. He looked at his wife, and whispered to her. "I'll tell them what happened to her. Is that all right?" "Yes, it's all right," Scully whispered. "What happened to her?" Emily asked. "How come I don't remember my own twin sister?" "She was taken a few days later after the two of you were born," Mulder replied. "We still don't know what happened to her since then." "She was kidnapped?" Emily whispered. It was starting to sink in. She had a twin sister. "Maybe the woman in the hospital is Gillian?" "From the DNA test, it could very well be," Dana replied. "There were similarities between my DNA and her DNA to point out that we are related." She paused. "If the woman is Gillian, she must have had a terrible experience... Jordan Black had a vision of her being used as a lab rat." "Why would they kidnapped her?" Emily asked. "I don't know the reasons why they would take Gillian," Scully replied. "We still don't know." She paused. "We never gave up hope in finding her." "It looks like Dana and Emily had found her," Mulder replied. Holy Cross Memorial Hospital Wednesday, 9:00 a.m. "First they took Aunt Samantha, then they took Mom, then they took Gillian, and if that wasn't enough, they took you. How come they keep taking us female Mulders?" Emily asked. She was with her sister, Dana, and her mother in the waiting room to visit Gillian. "I don't know," Dana whispered. It was the question that she had always had asked herself but never knew the answer. She was lost in thought when the nurse told their mother that she could come in to identify the comatose woman. "Mom, do you want us to come in with you?" "I think that I can handle this on my own," Scully replied. "All right," Dana replied. She watched her mother walk into the woman's room. Scully saw the woman laying on the bed covered with tubes, and she saw the similarities that she shared with the woman. She knew it was her long lost daughter, Gillian. "It's her." The woman's eyes opened and she saw Scully for the first time. Although she doesn't doesn't know her, she felt as though they shared a bond. Scully sensed that the woman was trying to figure out who she is so she introduced herself to her. "I'm your mother, Dana Scully-Mulder, and you are Gillian Christina Mulder." "How come I don't remember?" Gillian asked. "You were taken from us after a few days after I had given birth to you and your fraternal twin sister, Emily," Scully replied. She sat down a chair facing her long lost daughter. She noticed Dana walking in. Gillian looked up, and noticed that her mother and the young woman looked so much like her with auburn hair and blue-green eyes. She felt that she should have know her family, but the question remains: Why was she taken? Her own memories were foggy at best since she was just a lab rat to them. They didn't tell her why she was always being tested or about her family. She felt that she was in a dark about so many things. "They never told me anything about me or my name. I didn't know that I had a family and a name." "I wouldn't put anything past them," Dana replied. "Gillian, I am your sister, Dana Katherine Mulder." She paused. "They abducted me too, and when I was returned, I was in a coma." "I remember," Gillian replied. She looked at her sister. "In fact, I had seen you..." "You have seen Dana before?" Scully asked. "Yes," Gillian replied. "They were doing something to her, and she was pregnant..." "With Sarah, your niece. In fact, I am pregnant again," Dana replied, softly smiled. "I am also engaged to be married." Dana and Fox Mulder's Residence Annapolis, MD Two Weeks Later Tuesday, 9:00 a.m. Gillian's recovery from whatever they had done to her was speeded up due to her finding out that she had a family who loved her, and now, she had a name: Gillian Christina Mulder. Mulder smiled at Scully as they looked at Emily and Gillian. "It has been a long time since we saw them together." He remembered the twins in Scully's arms. "I know," Scully replied. She smiled at the twins, and she was enjoying their reunion. "I think that they have always known about each other. It's their bond that twins have." "She's all right, isn't she?" Mulder asked. "She's fine," Scully replied. "She doesn't have that chip, if that's what you mean." "Will she have cancer?" "No, I don't think so," Scully answered, as she embraced her husband. "Let's enjoy having her back, Fox." Across the room, Dana was with Chris Krycek. They were sitting on the sofa enjoying the reunion. "I can't believe that this is happening, Chris." "I know what you mean, but I don't know why they took her. Do you?" Chris asked. "No," Dana replied. "I don't think that we will ever know." She paused. "We have something better to discuss. Our wedding." She grimaced as her water broke. "Chris, I think that it's time." "Honey, it can't be," Chris replied. "We haven't got married yet." He was in denial, and then he saw a look of panic on his fiancee's face. She was in labor. "Our baby doesn't know that," Dana sighed. She was doing her breathing exercises from all of those Lamaze classes that she took with Chris. "I'll get your parents..." Dana watched as Chris got her parents, and soon, she was surrounded by her siblings. Chris helped her into her old bedroom, and she watched her mother get some towels and water. "I think that the baby is going to come out if we're married or not," Dana sighed, as her contractions started to come faster and faster. "Father McCue is here, Dana and Chris. You have your marriage license already. All you need to do are the vows," Scully replied. "You can still have the wedding..." "Get Father McCue," Dana replied. Scully nodded, and she walked to the living room where Father McCue was. "Dana and Chris would like to get married before their baby is born." "I'll come up then," Father McCue replied. He smiled at Scully's mother, Margaret Scully. "It looks like you are going to have a great-grandchild soon..." "It will be another great-grandchild. Dana already has a daughter named Sarah," Margaret replied. She pointed out the little redhaired, blue-green eyed girl standing near her grandmother looking scared. "I'm happy for them." "I better get up to them," Father McCue said, as he went upstairs to Dana and Chris. "Dana?" Margaret inquired. "I know that things have been hectic lately with Dana, and finding Gillian." "I'm fine," Scully sighed. "No, you're not fine, Dana. I remember what you and Fox went through when Gillian was kidnapped, and what you said about Dana," Margaret replied. "It'll take time getting used to. It all happened so fast. I remember when I became pregnant with Fox Jr. and Dana. I thought that I would never have children, but now I am a grandmother with Sarah and soon, Dana's baby." "Let's go see them get married and become parents," Margaret replied. They walked upstairs to Dana's bedroom, and they saw Dana and Chris surrounded by loved ones. "Let's start the wedding before the baby comes," Dana sighed, as she was pushing. The contractions were faster and faster. She wanted to be married to Chris when she gives birth. "All right," Father McCue replied. "Who is going to give Dana away to this man?" "Her parents," Mulder replied, as he looked at his wife and then at Dana. "Do you Christopher William Krycek take Dana Katherine Mulder to be your lawfully wedded wife in sickness and in health?" "I do," Chris replied. He smiled at Dana, as Emily gave the ring to her sister to slip onto Chris's finger. "You know I do." "Do you Dana Katherine Mulder take Christopher William Krycek to be your lawfully wedded husband in sickness and in health?" "I do," Dana replied. She was in pain from the contractions and all she wanted now was to give birth. She saw her twin brother, Fox Jr., hand the ring to Chris, who slipped it onto her finger. "By the power vested in me, you are now husband and wife," Father McCue replied. "You may now kiss the bride or in this case, have the baby." "Congratulations, Dana and Chris," Margaret replied. "I think that I will walk out with Father McCue." "Thanks, Grandma," Dana Mulder-Krycek replied. She watched her grandmother leave with Father McCue. She was still in pain. It took all of her strength to hold back from pushing the baby before the ceremony was over. "I think that its time to bring this baby into the world." "I agree," Scully replied. She turned towards her husband. "I can't believe that its time." "I know what you mean," Mulder replied. "Our little girl is a married woman and pretty soon, she'll be a mother again." "I know," Scully sighed. She saw Gillian standing there in between Fox Jr. and Emily. "I think that I better talk to her." Meanwhile, Dana was using her strength to give birth to her and Chris's child. "Come on, Dana. You can do it," Chris exclaimed. "Breathe honey." "I am," Dana replied. She kept doing her breathing exercises, and she pushed. "Just one more push, and the baby is out," Chris said. He watched his wife push the baby, and he picked up the baby. "We have a little baby girl." "A girl," Dana smiled. She saw her family looking at the baby. Scully smiled at the little girl who had red hair like her mother. "She looks like you." "I know," Dana replied. She looked at Chris. "I think that I have a perfect name for her. Daniella Katherine Krycek. What do you think?" "I think that the name fits her," Chris murmured.
