   Alex Brannan to All   
   [all-xf] The End of all Things (5/5) (1/   
   09 Jan 06 11:03:03   
   
   From: alex6169@sbcglobal.net   
      
                                 Note: This is the end of the end.  If you think   
   that it took a while it is because I broke   
      
     my left arm.  I was hit by a bus.  Since I write with my left hand I can't   
   write.  I am   
      
     typing it now with one hand.  At least I am trying.  Well here it is.  The   
   finale of The   
      
     End of All Things.   
      
     P.S- I am making a sequel.  Hopefully I will be able to make it.   
      
      
      
      
     The UFO had picked up 23 refugees.  They were scared and wounded.  Agent   
   Brannan   
      
     sat in a wheelchair looking grim.  It didn't look good that there were only   
   27 people left   
      
     in the world alive.  These people were to scared to make a difference   
   anyway.  What   
      
     was the point...   
      
      
      
     X saw the UFO go in and out of the planet searching for survivors.    
   Searching for   
      
     prisoners.  He couldn't let it get him.  He dived under a dead aliens body.    
   It passed   
      
     and he got up.  He wasn't going to get caught.  He was to far to get   
   caught.  Unless...   
      
      
      
     Skinner examined his wounds.  He had scars all over his body.  He had been   
      
     unconscious for a long time.  His cuts had already became scars.  He lifted   
   his hand   
      
     to his face.  Sweat on his brow, cut on his lower lip, nose broken, glasses   
   cracked in   
      
     the left lens, and a gash on his cheek.  The touch to his cheek stung.  He   
   looked   
      
     down.  left arm broken.  His leg lay limp.  He was missing a shoe so he took   
   off his   
      
     sock to find three toes bent back and broken as well as his ankle being   
   twisted 360   
      
     degrees around.  How did he get this way...   
      
      
      
      
     Agent Brannan wheeled his wheelchair out of the room.  He entered a side   
   room with   
      
     two armchairs facing a desk.  Behind the desk was a window and three file   
   cabinets.   
      
     He wheeled toward it and pulled the handle.  The cabinet wouldn't budge.  He   
   pulled   
      
     them all expecting them to all by locked.  But the final drawer slid open so   
      
     unexpectedly that Alex wasn't even paying attention and the drawer slid into   
   his   
      
     wheelchair, knocking it over.  Alex held his pain in and crawled to the wide   
   open file   
      
     cabinet.  There was about five hundred files in the drawer.He took the first   
   file.  The tab   
      
     read in bold letters:   
      
     THE X-FILES...   
      
      
      
     X searched every ship.  He was planning to get off this dump and blow the   
   hell out of   
      
     it.  He hadn't found one without alien bastards in it.  He held his stiletto   
   ready as he   
      
     entered a sixth ship.  No one in the main hall.  Or the escape pod bay or   
   jail cells.   
      
     Nothing in the cockpit or lurking in the corners.  What the hell, he thought   
   as he   
      
     entered the pilot's seat, this is my chance.  Let's go...   
      
      
      
     Skinner braced himself, grabbed his ankle with both hands, and twisted   
   quickly.  He   
      
     let out a yell of pain as his ankle jerked into its original position.  He   
   rested his head   
      
     on a boulder, sighed in relief, and tilted his head up.  A black shoe was   
   right in front of   
      
     his face.  He stood up and saw that it was hanging by it's shoelace.  It was   
   as if it was   
      
     caught in a fall.  He stared and wondered...   
      
      
      
     Alex searched the contents of the cabinets with a key he found in the   
   keyhole of the   
      
     bottom drawer in the third cabinet.  One cabinet had about half of the   
   X-Files piled in   
      
     it.  They were unorganized as if they had just been quickly stuffed in there   
   a little while   
      
     ago.  They had taken these from the basement office before burning the   
   X-Files.  He   
      
     took them all and placed them on the desk.  He tilted his wheelchair   
   upright, sat down,   
      
     and began to read...   
      
      
      
     X was high up in the air now.  Just exiting the atmosphere.  He began   
   rapidly punching   
      
     at a keyboard on the dashboard.  He turned a knob once and a word popped up.   
      
     AUTOPILOT.  He typed another word.  As he did they appeared on the screen.    
   It now   
      
     said: AUTOPILOT: EARTH.  That's when everything changed for better and for   
   worse...   
      
      
      
     One of the UFOs that was hovering over Skinner dipped down for a landing.    
   The UFO   
      
     docked fifty yards from Skinner.  He tried his best to hide himself.  A ramp   
   extended   
      
     from a door which opened, revealing three men.  The first one was Cancer   
   Man, a fresh   
      
     cigarette in his mouth.  The other man was one of the elders that worked   
   with Cancer   
      
     Man.  The other man Skinner didn't recognize.  He walked forward until he   
   was only   
      
     ten feet from Skinner.  Skinner was shaking now, beads of sweat streaming   
   down his   
      
     forehead.  But suddenly, the man was started shaking as well.  He arms flew   
   from side   
      
     to side and it looked as if he was having a seizure.  He was thrown onto his   
   hands and   
      
     knees by some invisible force.  Skinner stood up to see what was happening,   
      
     forgetting all about Cancer Man and the elder.  The elder began whispering   
   to Cancer   
      
     Man.  He took out the cigarette from his mouth and tossed it to the ground.    
   He tilted   
      
     his head and locked his eyes with Skinner's.  He began walking toward   
   Skinner's   
      
     position...   
      
      
      
     Cancer Man saw Skinner.  They met eyes and then Cancer Man saw the Super   
      
     Soldier.  The alien was stupid enough to fall for a trap set by an FBI   
   agent.  A dying   
      
     one at that.  But Skinner wasn't dying as he would soon find out.  He was   
   actually in a   
      
     strong state of mind and physical strength.  Put that is not important now.    
   What is   
      
     important is what Cancer Man saw next.  He saw the alien pulled right into   
   the   
      
     quarry...   
      
      
      
     The Assistant Director saw the man get pulled into the wall of the quarry.    
   He wasn't a   
      
     man at all actually.  Skinner knew what he really was because Scully once   
   made a   
      
     field report on a quarry.  A quarry where an alien was thrown into it and   
   destroyed by a   
      
     mysterious metal inside the quarry.  This was that quarry.  And that was a   
   Super   
      
     Soldier...   
      
      
      
     A lot happened before and after X realized something was wrong.  The UFO   
   that had   
      
     kept going in and out of the planet headed inland once more.  Landing and   
   quickly   
      
     setting off again.  They spotted him and let out a stream of blue laser   
   bolts straight at   
      
     him.  He dodged them only to be in the line of different fire.  To the east   
   was another   
      
     craft.  This one was after both him and the other one next to him.  X   
   glanced at the first   
      
     craft.  It was boarded with humans but it was piloted by an alien.  He didn't   
      
     understand.  The bolts charged the ship at full speed.  The UFO shoke and X   
   fell to the   
      
     ground.  There was a warning signal flaring all over the cockpit.  X   
   scrambled to his feet   
      
     and saw the shield monitor depleting.  It was gone by the time the second   
   wave of   
      
     bolts came.  The screen changed from:  AUTOPILOT: EARTH to: WARNING:   
      
     THRUSTERS DAMAGED to: WARNING: ENGINES SEVERELY DAMAGED and:   
      
     WARNING THRUSTERS UNDETECTED.  The craft was thrown from side to side out of   
      
     control until a blast knocked X to the ground...   
      
      
      
     "He's going down!"  Scully exclaimed   
      
     "Try communication."  Doggett demanded.   
      
     "Nothing.  No reading.  Something is either blocking the signal or it is   
   destroyed."  The   
      
     alien said.
