Rescue Mission Series
by Lara Means

Sometime in December 2000 on the I Want To Believe mailing list, a request went out for Mulder & Scully Reunion scenes. Lots of great stories came out of that "ReturnFic" challenge -- mine was "Rescue Mission." Since that one was told from Scully's POV, I decided I wanted to do a few more short vignettes from other POVs. This is a five-part series, and is complete as of June 2001.

Note: All these stories ignore events in late season 8. Not that I have anything against season 8 -- I enjoyed season 8 -- but I started the series about halfway through, so "This is Not Happening" never happened.
