I didn’t have to come down here,” Susan said, annoyed. “But,” Jim stammered, looking around the crime scene, feeling foolish for having called her. Susan sighed, running her hands through her reddish brown hair. “Look, Jim. I’m not angry with you. I’m just tired. Mike and I are leaving for Bali tomorrow and all I want to do is get the hell out of here.” Jim looked down. “I’m sorry.” She shook her head. “It’s not your fault that my leave was cut short because of that asshole Williams or that this sick fuck is killing people. But, I do have to get going.” https://x-libris.xf-redux.com/story/camp-hero/ 3/307 x-libris.xf-redux.com Camp Hero by McKab Jim sighed and nodded reluctantly. Susan stepped toward him slowly and rested her hand on his forearm. “Jim,” she said softly. “I have complete confidence in you. And I am not at all worried that you won’t be able to handle things while I’m gone. You just need to believe in yourself.” He took a deep breath and nodded confidently. Susan smiled. “Just remember that you were my choice for ASAC and I honestly feel that you are qualified for the position.” She squeezed his arm for emphasis. Jim smiled. “Thank you, Susan.” Her smile widened. It still sounded strange hearing him call her Susan. It took her forever to break him of that ma’am habit. Susan nodded curtly, then started towards her car. Michael was already waiting for her, the passenger door open and the car running. “In a bit of a hurry?” Susan asked as she approached him. Michael smiled brightly. “Damn right I am!” Susan chuckled, but her smile turned into a frown when her cell phone rang. “Yeah,” she said into the receiver, slamming the car door shut. “Susan?” a small female voice responded. She frowned. “Yes,” she answered slowly. “This is SAC Halloway.” She paused, she knew she should recognize the voice, but she couldn’t quite place it. “Who is this?” She heard the woman take a deep breath before she answered. “Susan, this is Dana.” Suddenly, Susan panicked. “Dana! What’s the matter?” At Susan’s outburst, Michael swerved, narrowly missing a car in the oncoming lane. Scully didn’t respond right away which added to Susan’s anxiety. “Susan, I need you and Mike to come down here.” Susan mouthed ‘Dana’ to Michael when he got the car under control. ‘What’s wrong?’ he mouthed back, sensing her distress. Susan shook her head. “Why Dana? What happened?” “I can’t get into it on the phone,” Scully said in a shaky voice. “But Mulder’s gone.” “Gone? What do you mean ‘GONE’!” “I’ll explain more when I see you,” Scully responded. Susan could hear that she was trying not to cry. “Where are you?” https://x-libris.xf-redux.com/story/camp-hero/ 4/307 x-libris.xf-redux.com Camp Hero by McKab Scully hitched in a breath. “The ER in Georgetown University Hospital.” “Oh my God, Dana, are you, is Mulder.?” She couldn’t finish the sentence. “NO!” Scully shouted. “No, Mulder Is Not Dead!” Scully said pointedly. “And I’m OK, they’re just running some tests. When do you think you could get
