Dana Scully

I originally wanted to become a medical doctor and I obtained my degree in physics at the University of Maryland. It was then that I realized pursuing a career in medicine wasn't the right choice for me. I felt that the FBI was the place for me to excel. After teaching at Quantico for a couple of years, I was assigned to the X-Files as Agent Fox Mulders partner. It was apparent that I was expected to shut Agent Mulders work down, to debunk his research. Because of my scientific and medical background, it was difficult, at first, to explain and accept the things I saw in the cases Mulder and I investigated. I couldn't find my place. As I was scrambling to find a plausible explanation for the things we saw, he was light years ahead of me, always able to see that which I could not because of his open mind and his thirst to find the truth. I was abducted by Duane Barry from my own home and taken to Skyland Mountain where men performed medical tests on me, put a computer chip in my neck, and extracted all of my ovum, leaving me barren. I developed cancer as the result of me removing the computer chip in the base of my neck. I was going to die, but Mulder found another computer chip with the help of Cigarette Smoking Man that put my cancer in remission. It wasn't until after I found out I couldn't conceive a child that I realized how much I longed to have one. Then I discovered Emily. She was orphaned because both of her parents had been killed. It was uncanny how similar she looked to my sister when she was five years old. I had a DNA test run, and I realized that I was her biological mother. Sadly, she was a miracle that was never meant to be, and she died of a rare form of anemia shortly after I found her. I had to move on. I continued my work with Mulder and grew very fond of him. I couldn't tell him my true feelings because I didn't want to jeopardize our partnership on the X-Files. Later, I was stung by a bee carrying an alien virus. Mulder managed to acquire a vaccine and he saved me. If the virus had stayed in my body, an alien would have gestated in my abdomen, feeding off of my organs until it was ready to birth, leaving me for dead. Mulder and I became romantically involved and I asked him to be the donor for my invitro fertilization. All attempts to get me pregnant failed, and I was left without the hope of ever having a child again. Mulder was abducted at the place where our investigation on the X-Files began; in Oregon. After he was gone, I realized I was pregnant by some miracle. For nine months I worried that my baby was alien. We found Mulder, and we thought he was dead, until Billy Miles's body was discovered floating in the ocean. When he shed his bloated and dead skin in the shower, he wasn't the same. He had become a Super Soldier, a new form of alien that is virtually indestructible. We treated Mulder with antibiotics to kill the virus that would make Mulder have the same fate as Billy. I thought Billy Miles and a gang of Human Replacements were going to take my baby away from me, but instead they left him alone. Apparently, my son William wasn't the baby they thought he would be. Mulder and I know that he is our son, even though it was a miracle he was born. I ended up having to give William up for adoption anonymously because his life was in constant danger, as he started to exhibit superhuman qualities, like moving objects with his mind. It broke my heart, but I knew I couldn't protect him. Mulder had been in hiding in New Mexico because he feared for his life as well as William's. When he returned, he stood trial for the supposed murder of Super Solder, Noah Rohrer. The trial was rigged and Mulder was sentenced to death by lethal injection. Agents Dogget, Reyes, Assistant Director Skinner, Deputy Director Kersch and I helped Mulder escape and now we are on the run...The CricketSoda Myspace Editor!.. width="425" height="350" .... width="425" height="350" ..
