Summary:  The truth is something Mulder & Scully may have to 
pay a steep price for.

Author's Notes: 

Ever since I watched IWTB I have thought of the ideal way to 
start and storyline a third movie.  So, after much thought and 
deliberation I have a series of scenes that I have written for 
the third XF movie.  The scenes will not necessarily run right 
after each other but they are in sequence.  They are more like 
scenes I would like to see in the XF3 that develop character, 
tie loose ends, and add plot interest.  

I do not own the characters and I don't make any money from 
this.

Enjoy!

The young agent sat in his SUV and closed his eyes for a moment.  
Enjoying the silence that was about to be broken.  His phone 
chirped alive on the seat next to him and he hesitated before 
reaching for it, but decided to not delay the inevitable. He hit 
the talk button and put the phone to his ear.

"Have you got a lead on them yet?" the gruff voice on the other 
side asked.

"I went door to door at the motel and one family's car is now 
missing.  I suspect they used that to escape" he answered 
decisively.

"The plate?"

"Already called into state troopers, along with their 
descriptions."

"They've got quite a lead" the voice said unapologetically.

"Yeah, but they are running and we are hunting.  They won't 
know what to expect" the young agent replied.

"We didn't expect this" was the quick response.

"But we know better now" the young agent said as he rubbed his 
temple.

"We better" the voice grumbled "Hanson?"

"Complete." 

"Nothing?"

"Nothing" he replied.

"What's your next step?" 

"I think they're headed to DC.  They'll want to find Mulder and 
Scully and they may start with her family."

"And?"

"I'll already be there to greet them. I'm on the next flight."

"If they don't show up...there may be another use to your visit."

"I understand" he said confidently.

The phone disconnected and he was left in the cab of the SUV 
listening to faint sounds of Willy Nelson playing in the 
background.  He looked at his watch, exited his car, and walked 
into the departure gate of the airport.
