    Summary

    Saving the world comes at much too high a cost. Mulder and Scully go on the run to protect their unborn son and battle the human replicants who seem intent on world domination.

    An AU take of starting in the latter part of season 8 episode Essence. Timeline wise it will eventually cover IWTB territory but with a replicant twist.

    This stems from it annoys me how Scully gets relegated to basically being a ball for the men to pass around at the end of episode 8x20 and then all the symbolism nonsense (no woman is wearing nice white satin pyjamas by choice having just given birth I don't care if it makes her look like the virgin Mary). So this is my take on these episodes with a little bit more logic, a lot more MSR. The men still get to run around beating their chests but Scully has a voice and uses it.
