I WANT TO BELIEVE

Chapter 19: Once more

Mulder's point of view
-------------------------------------
Walking back to the house Perez and I both noticed how quite it was. The sky was a dark grey but you could still see the lights of the city only an hour away. "Mulder," Perez uttered slowing his walking.
"Yeah," I said walking at a regular place. Perez stopped a confused look on his face. "What," I said turning to look at him.
"Something's wrong," Perez muttered looking around him.
"What," I said again getting more confused.
"I called Marks and she didn't answer, she never does that."
"I'm sure the girls are ok."
"I don't know, we should go to the house."
"Ok," I said, I knew something was wrong. I could feel it. That feeling seems to be a regular thing now a days.
We both seemed to fast walk to the house.
Once we got to the house, we walked into the front door. Everything was in the same place, or as I've come to know, to much of the same. I looked at Perez and we both knew the same thing. Perez walked to the kitchen and I went to the backyard. As I walked past the grill I saw a light on in the garage. I put my hand on my gun and slowly walked to the entrance. I heard a small scuffling noise. As a reaction I paused and pulled up my gun. I walked around the piles of empty boxes.  I heard another scuffle behind me and I turned around. Then nothing.
----------------------------------------
"Hello again"
"What the hel..."
"Shut him up"
I couldn't see but I knew who was there. It was Max. That pervert, that bastard...
"Mulder?!"
"What the..." I said worrying that is was  one of the girls, or Perez.
"MULDER!"
I heard a door shut and the shouting stopped.
"Don't worry they are fine. Just a little hurt. Or maybe not a little. We have all three. That red head beauty you truly missed out on, the blonde haired, mysterious blue eyed girl, and the soldier boy. There all here. Don't you worry."
