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!

**********************************

Fox Mulder, Dana Scully sat in John Doggett's car as he 
maneuvered through the winding streets of Peabody.  It was 
raining outside and the clouds hanging low in the sky threatened 
more to come. They were all dressed in black except for a lab 
coat with fake ID Scully was sporting.

"Thanks for the bagels and coffee, John" Scully said from the 
backseat.

"Can't run a black-ops mission on an empty stomach" he joked.

Mulder chuckled, "that's what my mother always used to say."

John swallowed the last of his coffee as they rounded a back 
corner of the Kite facility "what the fuck?!" he said loudly 
as they all took in the sight before them.

There were vans parked all around the facility, an ambulance 
at the side gate, and people were scurrying with boxes all over 
the place.

"What the hell's going on?" Scully asked as she leaned forward 
to get a better look.

"I don't know Scully, but I suspect our plan has just flown out 
the window" Mulder replied as he eyed the scene before him.

"I'm turning back and..." John started.

"No!" Scully yelled as the car slowed "Let me just take a look 
from the side." 

She bolted from the car, shucked off her lab coat and tossed it 
in the backseat.

"Scully!" Mulder said, too loudly.

She was already off and running confidently through the bushes.

"Jesus Christ!" he said exasperated as he jumped from the car 
as well.

"Mulder, I'll circle back in 5 minutes" John said as he watched 
the man run off into the woods.

John drove off, leaving the two former agents to figure out what 
was happening.

"Scully!" Mulder hissed as he ran through the woods "Scully!"

"Stop saying my name" she snapped from a spot perched on a tree 
branch.

"Then stop taking off" he snapped back.

The rain started to fall a little harder but the tall trees above 
them protected them from the brunt of it.

"Mulder, look" she said as she extended her wet arm toward the 
facility.

He clambered up to the branch she was sitting on and followed her 
line of sight.  He saw boxes filled with files being loaded onto 
trucks, and lab technicians scurrying around with equipment 
hastily packed into boxes.

"They're moving" he said quietly.
