THE BEGINNING
A shot rang like through the
night. Scully fell, her blood splashing red onto the pavement and painting it
in death. Mulder raced to her side, cradling her head in his lap and she winced
in pain. Then her eyes glazed over slightly, and the two agents joined together
in a song buried deep within their hearts.
Scully:
Don't you fret, my dear
Mulder.
I don't feel any pain.
A little fall of rain
Can hardly hurt me now.
You're here, that's all I
need to know.
And you will keep me safe,
And you will keep me close,
And rain will make the
flowers grow.
Mulder:
But you will live,
Scully--dear God above.
If I could close your wounds
with words of love.
Scully:
Just hold me now, and let it
be.
Shelter me, comfort me.
Mulder:
You would live a hundred
years,
If I could show you how...
I won't desert you now...
Scully
The rain can't hurt me now.
This rain will wash away
what's past
And you will keep me safe,
And you will keep me close,
I'll sleep in your embrace
at last.
The rain that brings you
here
Is heaven blessed.
The skies begin to clear,
And I'm at rest.
A breath away from where you
are
I've come home from so far,
So don't you fret, my dear
Mulder,
I don't feel any pain.
A little fall of rain
Can hardly hurt me now.
That's all I need to know,
And you will keep me safe,
And you will keep me close,
And rain
Will make the flowers...
Mulder:
Hush-a-bye, dear Scully,
You won't feel any pain.
A little fall of rain
Can hardly hurt you now.
I'm here.
I will stay with you till
you are sleeping
And rain
Will make the flowers
Grow.
Scully nodded weakly; her
body was so tired, so tired... She sighed, and life left her. He kissed the
tips of his fingers and gently closed her blank eyes which gazed sightless into
the night above. A light patter of rain danced mournfully on his head, and his
tears mixed with her blood as it was washed down the sewer drain.
THE END
