(13 April 1997) The Beatles Files: "The End" by Christina Shuy cshuy@netcom.com One month later... Samantha Mulder, and her niece and nephew, presided over the setting of the joint monument. It was a small, quiet gathering, with only immediate family and friends. They approached the site where her brother and sister-in-law were buried and the workers who had just finished setting the marker in place nodded to them before leaving the family of the deceased in peace. Dana Katherine Scully Fox William Mulder Beloved wife, mother, Devoted son, father, and daughter. and husband. "The Truth shall set you free." "The Truth is out there." As Samantha read over the individual gravemarkers, she felt the mist of tears in her eyes. Thinking about having lost both of them in so short a time was still quite an emotional experience. Though they had only found Samantha shortly before Mrs. Mulder had passed away peacefully, though quite a while since the menace that had been Cancerman had gone, the family bond that had been between Mulder siblings was still very much there. At times, it had felt like they had not been separated at all. "Aunt Samantha, it's time..." Michelle noted quietly. "We would like to thank you for coming..." Samantha Mulder began in a quiet voice. The marker was simple. It lay centered at the top of both gravestones and was a simple marble affair with their immediate family tree inscribed, as well as a song. "Oh yeah, all right Are you going to be in my dreams Tonight? . . . And in the end The love you take Is equal to the love you make." - "The End" - Abbey Road - The Beatles Above them, in the tranquility that was the afterlife, Dana Katherine Scully and Fox William Mulder watched as their immediate family paid respects as they themselves waited their next turns on the planet below in each other's arms and each other's lives and hearts. They had also seen a glimpse of the future and were both delighted and eager to watch what would happen. -The End- "The Truth is Out There.
