FORGOTTEN SON
by PEJA

Walter Skinner eyed the capped vial containing a way too familiar looking implant dispassionately. His iced chocolate  gaze drop to the formalized documents that had come Special Messenger. Documents that gave him power of attourney of a man he had hoiped never to encounter again. Shifting the papers littering his desk, he reread the paternity tests that proved Krycek was not the man he portrayed himself to be.  DNA markers told a story that could not be denied. A story that Skinner dreaded bringing to light with a fear he'd only experienced before in the war.

Leaning over his desk, he buzzed through. "Kim, cancel any appointments I might have. I've been called away for the rest of the day" He signed off without waiting for a response, gathering up the stack of papers and stuffing them back into the manila envelope. 

A polaroid slipped free of the bundle, landing on the desk. 

Skinner picked up the photo, staring at the exhausted shining face of a woman holding a newborn in each arm, one wrapped in pink, the other blue.
