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 would have liked the view he had any other day, 
but today.  Mallory Suharta crawled in front of him in the 
duct system of the Kite facility.  Her ass swayed from side 
to side in a way that only a woman in her 20's could.  He 
heard a loud screech coming from the sound system and wondered 
if they had set off the alarm or if the alarm was just going 
off despite them.

He hoped Scully had cleared security and was now with the 
children.  She was in charge of moving the kids and he was 
responsible for getting the evidence to put people behind bars 
and shut down the operation.  He had been directed by Franz 
Lutman to a room near the middle of the facility and he was 
hoping that they had not been set up.  

Glancing at the ass that swayed in front of him he doubted 
Franz would put her in that position.  It was easy to see the 
love the man had for this woman in the few minutes they spent 
together.  It was also apparent she wanted nothing to do with 
him.  She cared for him but, he also disgusted her at the 
same time.  

"You trust your partner?" Mulder asked from behind her.

She paused and answered "I, uh do."

"I still got it" the inner psychologist muttered.

"What?" she asked.

"Nothing" he snickered, "keep moving."

She stopped suddenly and put her hand back to tell him to be 
quiet.  He paused in position and waited to find out why they 
had stopped.  She motioned for him to crawl up and join her.  
He eased his way toward her trying to remain as quiet as 
possible and still squish next to her without really touching 
her in the small space.  She motioned for him to listen below.

"They expect us ready to move at 6 am" the young man said as 
he packed a box.

"Why are we waiting for the FBI?" she asked as she loaded more 
files.

"Beats the fuck out of me," he replied back.

The two movers lifted their boxes and exited the room.  When 
the door clicked shut with a heavy 'thud' Mulder reached for 
the grate in front of them and lifted it from its place.  He 
looked below and jumped from the ceiling to the floor.  Looking 
around the small filing room he realized that almost half the 
files had disappeared already.

"Shit" he said not so softly.

"What?" Mallory asked as she jumped to the ground beside him.

"They have already moved..." he said as he gestured around the 
room.

"Let's see what's still here," she said walking toward a 
cabinet.

She opened a random drawer and started to look at the tags on 
the files. Mulder followed suit and attacked another filing 
cabinet.  

"They are all serial number based, there are no names" he said 
as he pulled a file "I see medical data but no kid's names."

Mallory walked over to the file he was holding and pointed to 
the sequence, "It's the child's first and last initial, 
followed by date of birth and date of admission to the lab."

"GE0215200104012009 doesn't help me much." He said in a annoyed 
voice as he read the file.

"Just grab everything, pack a box, and we'll sort it out later." 
She said irritated.

"I want the information that'll close this facility not just 
any shit." He said frustrated as he reached for another file.

"How the fuck she's put up with you..." Mallory muttered under 
her breath.

"I don't think she'd see it that way" he muttered back.

Mulder and Mallory sorted through file after file until she 
got anxious.  

"Those two may be back any minute and then how the hell are 
we going to explain..."

Mulder ignored her as he became engrossed in a file.

"Mulder, I'm taking a box and leaving before they get back" 
she said throwing the lid on the top of a box.

"Got it" he said with a smile as he threw the file he was 
reading into the empty box in front of him.

"Let's get out of here" she said as she reached for the handle.

"You know, Agent Suharta, you are a little too jumpy for field 
work" he said as he reached past her and swung open the door.
