Title: The Pilot
Authors: Cassie & Kristi
Summary: Mulder and Krycek meet on an airplane...
Spoilers: None, we try to create our own stuff... but remember sometimes we have to refer to happenings in the actual show "The X-Files"...
Disclaimer: We do not own the characters Mulder and Krycek, Chris Carter, 1013 Productions, and 20th Century Fox own them.
OVER BLACK:
We hear the captin of an airplane over the intercom. A typical pilot boring flat voice ton...
ANGEL - AGENT FOX MULDER
looking tired, and sick of waiting.
To his right is:
AGENT DANA SCULLY
reading an on-flight magazine with glasses on.
Scully answers in a pre-occupied, dubious tone. She doesn't even look up to answer him.
MULDER
Well, I'm more important
than them.
MULDER
is bored and tired, so he decides to lay down on the other two 'open' seats next to him.
SCULLY
gives him an irritated glance.
CLOSE
Someone's feet, slowly approaching Mulder and Scully's sest. The feet kick some poor kid's fluffy white bunny rabbit toy out of his way.
CAMERA RISES FROM THE FEET as we follow up the legs of this mysyerious man, to his upper body and finally to his face, to reveal none other than... Alex Krycek.
CLOSE
Krycek's face, reacting to the sight of Mulder sleeping in his seat, a very blank expression. He passes the camer and is followed by a young blonde woman who works for the UN... Marita Covarrubias.
These are the special government employees...
CUT TO:
ALEX KRYCEK'S POV
Looking down at Mulder... sleeping in their seats. Scully starts to shake Mulder awake.
MULDER
Huh?
MULDER
You like the Knicks too?
I love the Knicks.
MARITA
I prefer San Antonio.
KRYCEK
(deadpan)
Me too.
KRYCEK
No, I did.
TIME CUT:
ANGEL - STUARDESS
She is making her rounds with the refreshment cart, handing out meals. She comes to them and gives them their meals. Mulder, Scully, and Marita are the only one's eating, Krycek knows better.
A few hours later, Mulder and Krycek have fallen asleep, opposite ends from eachother. Scully finally really notices Marita, she double glances.
Marita looks up from reading some files, and looks at Scully she finally recognizes her former college roommate.
SCULLY
What were you doing in
Russia? And who's the guy?
MARITA
That's Alex, and he thinks
he's gonna rule the world.
SCULLY
He's cute.
KRYCEK
Yeah, you're just
jealous, women are
always crawling all
over me.
MARITA
Oh yeah, that explains
the guy in jail.
ANGLE ON
SCULLY
She has been shot, she is in shock.
MULDER
No, it's ink!
MULDER
How do you know I'm
an FBI agent?
KRYCEK
I work for people higher
than the government.
A few hours later, which seemed like days, they finally land.
The plane suddenly JOLTS! BOOM! Krycek falls down. Marita is the only brave soul to laugh at him. Krycek stands up, rather embarassed, pretending nothing happened, his face is bright red, he hands Marita her bad, she is still chickling, Krycek's face is boardering on dark red/purple, he's not looking anyone in the eye. We see Mulder in the background trying to hold in his laughter... but he can hold it in any longer, his face is the same color, but from not breathing.
INT - MULDER'S APARTMENT - LATE NIGHT
Mulder is trying to sleep on his couch, he is hearing footsteps in the apartment right next to him. Hmmmmm, a new neighbor, Mulder makes NO attempt to go greet, ya know, besides the fact that it is in the middle of the night... Mulder turns to his fish, on the bookshelf next to his couch, and says "goodnight", he then turns back around and gets all comfy, closes his beautiful eyes and falls asleep... little does he know of what is to come ...
