Summary:  Mulder and Scully on the Submarine Voyage at Disneyland. 
Spoilers; nope... none here.

This next installment of the series can be put anywhere in the timeline 
I'm apparently setting up in my head.  I don't know where it's going yet, 
but I'll let you know as soon as I do!  This is just a silly piece.

The Beatles Files:  "Yellow Submarine"

	The case had ended early and in thanks, the grateful mother they 
had gone to help in Southern California had given them tickets to 
Disneyland and, as they had no other plans, they went.
	"That was really nice of Mrs. Lambert to give us these tickets... 
especially considering we did ruin some of her family life by discovering 
that her husband was a sociopath who was also going under several other 
aliases..." Mulder pulled into a parking space and then stretched to get 
out of the car as Scully shut off her laptop and saved the report she had 
already finished writing.
	"Yeah, it was...  I didn't know Disneyland was open all the 
time... this should be fun.  Was your father stationed here when you were 
younger?  You have probably been here a lot of times, Scully."
	"Mulder, I haven't been to Disneyland in ages!"
	"Well, I've never been... this should be fun." Mulder's grin was 
boyish and very infectious.  Before long, Scully found herself grinning 
right along with her partner.

	"Can we go on the Submarine Voyage?  There doesn't seem to be a 
line." Scully said.
	They raced up to the front of the ride and then got on board the 
gaudy but nicely done ride.  The infectious 'child-like' aura had taken 
hold and Scully felt as though she were 10 years old at her first time at 
Disneyland again as the ride started.  She started to sing, softly.
   
  "In the town where I was born
   Lived a man who sailed to sea
   And he told us of his life
   In the land of submarines
   
   So we sailed up to the sun
   Till we found the sea of green
   And we lived beneath the waves
   In our yellow submarine"
   
	Mulder listened, amused, and then decided to join her, his voice 
harmonising with hers most beautifully.

  "We all live in our yellow submarine,
   Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
   We all live in our yellow submarine,
   Yellow submarine, yellow submarine"

	Dana turned to look at her partner and best friend, who was
already looking at her.  Flashing him a bright smile which he returned
with equal brilliance, they continued singing, much to the amusement of
the rest of the people on the ride, some of whom actually joined in! 
   
   And our friends are all on board
   Many more of them live next door
   And the band begins to play
   
   We all live in our yellow submarine,
   Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
   We all live in our yellow submarine,
   Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

	The prerecorded narrative that went along with the ride was 
drowned out by the sound of more than ten voices, all singing the happy 
song from a band from Liverpool, England in the 1960s.
   
   As we live a life of ease
   Everyone of us has all we need
   Sky of blue and sea of green
   In our yellow submarine.
   
   We all live in our yellow submarine,
   Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
   We all live in our yellow submarine,
   Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
   
   We all live in our yellow submarine,
   Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
   We all live in our yellow submarine,
   Yellow submarine, yellow submarine

	The submarine bumped up against the dock as the ride ended and 
the passengers applauded and some were laughing.   
	Mulder helped Scully off the ride as everyone else who had 
already disembarked had done so with the brightest smile on their faces.
	"That was fun... " Fox turned to Dana and said, the boyish grin 
appearing again and making Fox Mulder appear young again.
	"Come on, I'll race you to Space Mountain!" Dana said, laughing 
at the silliness of what had just happened on the Submarine Voyage.
	"You're on!"

-end... maybe?-

Ok, so it's silly... what are you expecting from me at 1AM on a Friday 
morning?? =) *goes off in search of her next story idea humming "Yellow 
Submarine"...* ;)
