Summary: Mulder and Scully find their son, setting off a series of events that force them to confront some painful and terrifying truths.
Disclaimer: I love ‘em, but I don’t own ‘em.
Spoilers: Through IWTB, with a hint of Season 10 thrown in for good measure.
Author’s Note: I used to publish X-Files fanfic on my personal website c. 1999, but this is my first attempt at something longer than a short story. I tried to stick as close to the original series’ canon as possible. I hope you enjoy, and thank you for reading.
