Disclaimer: I don't own these characters.  I am making no profit, and 
I assume the phrase "Get Ready To Rumble" is owned by that wrestling 
announcer who says it.  I don't even know who he is. I don't watch 
wrestling.  BUT I'm making no money off of it anyway.

Summary: Did Byers bed the lovely Kimberly?  Will Bill Scully kill 
Walter Skinner or vice versa?  And where the heck are Mulder and 
Scully in all this mess?

Feedback makes me very happy at shawntaw@hotmail.com  :)

Skinner barely had time to set Maggie down and gently push her out of 
the way as Bill Scully landed a punch square on his jaw.

Skinner fell and he could hear Maggie yelling at her son as he hit 
the sidewalk.

"For God's Sake, Bill, have you lost your mind!?!  Stop it, this 
instant!"

Another blow landed across Skinner's nose and he saw stars.

*That's it.  Maggie's boy or no, you are mine*

Skinner pushed himself up to sitting and firmly grabbed Bill's wrist 
as he threw another punch.  

He brought his other fist swinging into the surprised man's face.

*Not bad for an old fart, huh?*

Skinner's grin was a menacing grimace as he stood over the fallen man.

"What is going on here?!" Scully's voice exclaimed.

Skinner could hear her and another, heavier set of footsteps rapidly 
approaching.

Bill chose that moment to relaunch himself at Skinner.

"You s.o.b., what the hell did you do to my mother?!"

Skinner recognized that Bill was pulling some tricks out of his Naval-
training hat and the Marine in him surged.  His eyes sparked.

*Oh good, a REAL fight*

Skinner could hear voices screaming as he and the younger man rolled 
furiously across the grass of Maggie Scully's front lawn.

**********************************************************************

Byers leaned toward Kimberly in the dim lighting.

"Idea?" he repeated.

She nodded, a mischevious look on her face.  Kim grabbed his hand.

"Come with me, hurry."

She led him into her bedroom.  Byers felt the blush crawling up his 
face.

He stood and looked at her.

Kim giggled.  "Oh, I can't wait to see their faces! Especially 
Melvin's."

She threw open her closet and knelt inside.

Byers could hear her mumbling to herself.  "Where is it?  I thought I 
put it- Ah! Here it is!"

She scooted out backwards, holding a large white gift box.

"I bought this last month when I saw it in the store as a gift for my 
boss's birthday.  Its in a couple of weeks," she explained as she 
carried it to the bed.

"I'm always picking on him to relax, and I thought this present would 
be perfect for that." 

She opened the box and pulled out a huge, dark blue, terrycloth robe.

"Plus, the exasperated look he'll give me when he opens it will be 
priceless."

Byers just stared at it. *And this had to do with him, how?*

She held it out to him.

"Take off your clothes, John."

Byers gulped.

**********************************************************************

Mulder watched his boss and future brother-in-law rolling across the 
grass with his mouth hanging open.

*Um, ok...*

Scully and her mother stood on the sidelines, yelling at the two men 
to stop pounding one another.

"Bill! Cut it out! Skinner's an ex-marine; don't be stupid!" Scully 
was trying reason on her brother.

"Walter! Stop being so immature!" Maggie shouted, appealling to 
Skinner's age and usual bearing.

Mulder looked around stunned, wondering what in the heck he was 
supposed to do in this situation.

It came to him in a flash of schoolyard memories from his childhood.

He ran around the side of the house.

**********************************************************************

"Eh-Eh-Eh-" Byers sputtered, swallowed, and tried again.

"Excuse me?"

"Take off your clothes and put the robe on," she explained, still 
holding the robe out to him.

"Can't you just see their faces when you come out of my bedroom with 
a robe on?" She laughed shortly.

He simply stood for a moment, staring at her.

"What about what they will think of you?"

She shrugged, "I'm not worried about it, John, as long as you know 
the truth."

Kim stepped forward and began loosening his tye.

"Besides, I didn't like that whole 'computer geek' comment.  I was a 
nerd myself in school and I think it is unfair to automatically 
assume a woman wouldn't go out with you.  You are very handsome and 
gentlemanly."

His blush deepened and his breath caught in his throat.

She raised her eyes to meet his. "What's not to like?"

The voice in his head began to harp on him again.

He leaned forward and gently kissed her.

She smiled against his lips after a moment and he pulled away, 
looking at her questioningly.

"Your beard tickles," she whispered as they regarded one another, 
nose to nose.

**********************************************************************

Mulder found what he was looking for, but had to pause for a moment 
to hook it back up.  It had been winterized.

He cursed impatiently, hoping the two men weren't killing one another 
in his absence.

Finally getting everything in working order, he ran back around the 
house and out to the front yard.

Skinner had Bill on his stomach, one knee in his back and one arm 
wrenched in what looked like some sort of wrestling hold.

Mulder paused.  Maybe the fight was over.

But Bill executed a twist and backhanded Skinner across the face, 
sending his glasses flying.

Mulder reflected that it was amazing they hadn't been lost sooner.

The two men went back to rolling on the ground, grunting with their 
efforts.

Scully and Maggie were still shouting.

Some of the neighbors had come into their yards as well for the show.

Mulder heard sirens in the distance.

*Oh crap*

He held up the sprayer on the end of the water-hose, adjusted it to 
its strongest stream and stepped up to the two men.

"Mulder! What are you doing?!" He heard Scully shout.

Mulder considered a moment....

"Fox?!" Now Maggie was yelling at him.

...and shot a powerful stream of freezing water into the face of Bill 
Scully.

**********************************************************************

Kim stepped out of the room to allow Byers to change in private.

He heard her let his friends in the front door and their slightly 
muffled conversation.

Byers shook his head, unsure of the wisdom of this practical joke 
they were playing on Frohike and Langley.

On the other hand, his male heart swelled with pride that they would 
think he had been able to 'bed' the lovely Kimberly.

And on the first date, no less.

He chuckled quietly as he began to undress and lay his clothes neatly 
on the end of Kimberly's bed.

**********************************************************************

Oh, I'm on a roll! I made MYSELF chuckle! *L*

I'm still writing frantically, just thought I'd get this posted...
