Soulbound


Scully was sitting next to Mulder's coffin. He was dead and
nobody believed her when she said that it was the fungus that
digested him.  She started to cry, sobbing violently.
When her tears subsided, she fell asleep on Mulder's bed.

She was awaken by a bright light. She opened her eyes and found
herself in the middle of a clearing.  She stood and saw a
gathering of people not far from her. A redheaded woman got out
of the crowd and went to her smiling.

"Dana"

"Missy..it's impossible. You are.."

"My body is dead but not my soul. I was sent with the others to
welcome you"

"I was asleep near Mulder's" She tried to explain, stunned to
Melissa's presence.
She stopped when a little blond girl came to her. She was
speechless when she recognized her.

"Emily!"

"Mommy!"

She ran into her open arms. Scully embraced her little girl,
refusing to analyse why she was able to see and to touch her
deceased sister and daughter. Emily seemed healthy and smelled of
baby powder. Scully was delighted because she was sure she was
dreaming. Nothing else could explain was she was seeing and
feeling.

Melissa stayed near her sister and niece, surrounded by a
shinning halo. She waved to someone in the crowd and a man came
to them.
Scully didn't see him, she felt him as if her soul was aware of
who it was. She put Emily back on her feet and fell on the ground
under the emotion.

"Mulder"

"Scully"

He knelt beside her and took her face between his hands. Their
eyes met and she saw everything: friendship, trust, respect and
love. There were no walls hiding his feelings and she suspected
it was the same for her because he smiled tenderly.

"Yes my love, there's no barrier here. You can't hide

from me. I'm seeing through you and you can see

through me".

"Where are we, Mulder? I was asleep in your bed, next

to your coffin and now we are here together, I am

dreaming"

"It's not a dream"

"A hallucination?"

"Nope"

She gazed deeply in his hazel depth and

understood. "I am dead?!?"

"And the crowd goes wild! One point for Dana
Scully" "When did I die? How did I die? It's
not possible!" "You died from grief. Your
heart was broken and you died while asleep in
Mulder's bed. You couldn't live without him
and your destiny was to be with him." Melissa
explained. " Your love was so strong that
your body stopped to function altogether".




"But the truth and Samantha?" She asked torn
between her family and her duties.




Mulder took her hand and helped her to stand.
Emily took his other hand and they went
toward the people waiting for them. One woman
came to meet them. It was Samantha Mulder.

Walter Skinner found two corpses in the mud.
They were in a tight embrace and it made no
doubt that it was his two rogue agents. Their
earthly lives were over but their soul would
live eternally.

The end
