FADE IN:
EXT. ROAD TO PENNSYLVANIA – EARLY NIGHT
It has been a long ride for our heroes, Agents Doggett and Reyes. They seem irritated and ready to snap. The cause? Agent Leyla Harrison’s jibbering in the back about Mulder and Scully.
“And you know what else Mulder and Scully have done?” Agent Harrison continued to annoy.
“No, but I’m guessing you’ll tell us.” Agent Doggett answered, irritation rising in his voice.
“Mulder and Scully have been in a space craft. A real UFO.” Agent Harrison continued. “They have more experience on the x-files than the both of you.”
Doggett and Reyes share a look. They’ve had enough of Agent Harrison’s jibbering.
“Agent Harrison, how ‘bout you give your mouth a rest for a while.” Agent Doggett said “I think Agent Reyes has a headache, and I think I’m gettin’ a migrane.”
“Oh Agent Doggett” Agent Harrison continued to add to his migrane. “It’s good to know about the legendary agents that started the x-files.”
“Actually,” Agent Reyes started. “Agent Mulder founded the x-files with Agent Diana Fowley.”
Agent Reyes looked back at Agent Harrison. The look on Harrison’s face was classic. She seemed shocked, and personally offended. Doggett looked back in the rear-view mirror to see why Agent Harrison was silent for the first time… but probably not the last.
Monica turned back around in her seat to face forward. Doggett looks over and smiles at her. Monica is about to laugh. Guess that mention of Diana Fowley finally shut her up.
“I hate that Fowley woman.” Agent Harrison immaturely muttered from the back seat.
Guess that mention of Diana Fowley didn’t shut her up for long. Monica and John roll their eyes.
“She’s evil you know.” Agent Harrison continued about Diana Fowley.
Doggett and Monica share another look. Agent Doggett’s cell phone rings.
“Agent John Doggett.” Doggett said into his cell phone.
The voice from the other end was familiar, a pleasant voice to hear… a lucky one at that.
“Where are you Agent Doggett?” Said Dana Scully through the phone.
“Agent Reyes and I are on our way to Pennsylvania to investigate that case that Agent Harrison need our assistance on.” Doggett answered.
“Agent Doggett,” Dana said. “Could you put Agent Reyes on the phone?”
“Sure.” Doggett said. He looks over to Monica, holding out his cell phone to her. “It’s Agent Scully. She said she needs to speak with you.”
Monica takes the phone.
“Yeah?” Monica says into the phone.
“Agent Reyes, I didn’t want to tell Agent Doggett this because I can tell he’s about to loose his mind as it is.” Agent Scully said.
“What is it?” Monica asks.
“Agent Harrison lied to you guys. There is no case.” Dana said.
“What?!” Agent Reyes said, anger getting in her voice.
Doggett looks over, concerned. Monica looks at him, anger in her eyes. John mouths off “What is it?”.
“Is that Agent Scully on the phone?” Leyla annoyingly asked.
“Thank you. I’ll be sure to let him know.” Reyes said. She hung up the phone.
“What the hell is it, Monica?” Doggett asked.
“You might want to pull over for this one.” Monica says.
“You know, Agent Scully is so smart.” Harrison jibbered on in the back.
“For cryin’ out loud, Monica! Just tell me. What did Agent Scully have to say?” Doggett demands of Monica.
“Ok.” Monica says, letting out a sigh knowing that his temper is going to get the best of him when he finds out what she has to say. “There is no case.”
Agent Harrison bites her lower lip in the back. Busted.
“Come again?” said Agent Doggett.
“Agent Harrison has lied to us. Dana just told me that there is no case.”
Doggett slams on the brakes, screeching to a halt. Harrison flies forward from the backseat of the car, her head in between Agents Doggett and Reyes.
Doggett looks down at her, anger in his eyes.
“Why the hell did you lie to us?” Doggett demands of Agent Harrison.
“Well… I uh… well…” Agent Harrison doesn’t know how to tell them. “I just wanted to spend time with you two. I think you would make a perfect couple, and I have to show proof to all of my friends.”
“Oh for cryin’ out loud!” Doggett yells.
“Agent Harrison, this is a waste of the Bureau’s time and money.” Agent Reyes comments.
“But I have to have proof. Then all my friends will think I’m great and wonderful, and help me with my eating disorder, and praise me.” Leyla said.
“John and I are friends. Why can’t you pestering people get that through your thick skulls.” Monica said.
“That’s what Mulder and Scully use to say too.” Agent Harrison said.
Doggett gives Monica a look, and then gets out of the car. Monica follows.
“I’ve had enough of this.” Doggett said, annoyed. “First she’s obsessed with the idea of Mulder and Scully doin’ the wild thing… Now us?! I can’t take this! Where does she get her delusions!?”
“Well John, you know Dana has feelings for you, and you for her.” Monica answers. “She sees it as a threat to her precious Mulder and Scully. And you know how well Agent Mulder and I would’ve hit it off if he weren’t such an asshole all the time. The real Agent Mulder and I would’ve kicked it off great. We’re a threat, so she has it in her head to have us in a relationship.”
“That is the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard, Mon’. How can someone be that stupid?” John asks.
“I don’t know, I think it’s a disease.”
Agent Harrison gets out of the car to join their conversation.
“Agent Doggett…” Harrison starts.
However, Agent Leyla Harrison can’t finish, for our heroes draw their guns and shoot her at the same time. Agent Harrison falls to the ground. Blood oozes out of her body and onto the asphalt. Silence.
“You hear that Agent Reyes?” John says.
“I don’t hear anything.” Monica answers.
“I know.” He smiles. “She’s finally quiet.”
Monica smiles back. They give her one last look. Head back into the car. Doggett makes a U-turn and heads back to D.C., leaving Agent Harrison’s body at it’s final resting place.
FADE OUT:
THE END.
