Chapter 11
Max’s Bedroom, 10 Months Ago, 7pm Friday Evening
Michael: He was standing with his arms crossed and leaning back on the desk while Max just sat on the edge of his bed.
“No way Max, I don’t believe it!”
He was taken aback with what Max had just told him…Liz slept with Kyle. No way in hell, he had gotten to know Liz over the last year and knew how she felt about Max, he envied Max for many things but the love he shared with Liz was at the top of the list.
Max: “Believe it or not Michael, I SAW them in bed together. If I didn’t see that I wouldn’t have believed it but...” Remembering that night was painful and was content never to discuss it again but Michael had seen something wrong with him and pushed him into remembering. Standing up, he walked over to the open window and leaned out of it. He need fresh air, he just wanted…hell he didn’t know what he wanted except for Liz to tell him why.
It was at that point that a blinding light filled the room, as Max turned back he saw a shape form a short distance above his bed before falling onto it. Michael had his hand raised ready to fire when he noticed that the shape was Liz.
Michael: “What the hell?”
Max: “Liz, what is…” He was cut off as Liz grabbed his hand. The connection was fuzzy and jumbled but the images came through loud and clear.
Liz: It was done, the connection she had wasn’t as strong with this Max as it was with the one who she just left but it was enough to force the knowledge of the last year into his head. She was very weak from the energy surge that planted the Granoliths instruction manual within her and her trip back in time took even more out of her. However, she did have enough time for this and simple stated
“Max it has to change, I love y…”
With that she passed out. As Max tried to shake her awake he and Michael watched as her body was surrounded by a yellow aura and then vanished. Both simple stared.
Michael: He was dumbstruck and had no idea what was going on
“Max, what just happened, what did you see?”
Max: Michael’s questioning rant brought him out of his stare. Now he understood and knew what was to come if he didn’t obey Liz’s warning.
“Michael, get Iz, Maria and Alex. Take them…where…take them to Riverdog’s cave, don’t tell Tess or Kyle. I’ll meet you there!”
“Wait where are you going?” he asked as he grabbed Max’s arm before he was out the window
“Liz, I’ve got to see Liz. I know what happened…we have to talk about this. Get the others, I’ll explain everything when we get there.” Max said as he stepped out of the window. Stopping he turned back
“Michael, make sure Tess does not know about this. She doesn’t know where that cave is - that’s why I chose it.”
The look in his eyes showed Michael that, for whatever reason Max didn’t want Tess to know about this meeting, it was very serious. He grabbed the phone and started making calls.
Liz’s Bedroom, Parker Residence, 20 minutes later
Liz: She had been sitting at her desk for the last two hours trying to get her homework done but found it difficult. Every so often she would look back toward he bed and when she did, she had to fight back the tears. It was on that bed that she had sacrificed her future with the one person she truly loved, the person she would go to hell for.
Lost in thought and remembering the look on Max’s face she didn’t notice the knocking on her window.
Max: After not getting a response from his knocking he looked into the window and saw the face of his soul mate. He knew everything she had gone through three days ago when his future self had shown up. He didn’t think it was possible to love her anymore than he did before that incident but after discovering her sacrifice to save Michael, Isabel and the rest of the world, every part of him swelled with love and pride. He used his powers to unlock the latch on the window and climbed inside.
“Liz, we need to talk”
Liz: She was brought out of her trance and looked up at Max as he stood by the window.
“Max? What are you doing here?”
When Liz looked up she caught his stare and found she couldn’t look away and her curiosity was peaked when she saw the smirk on his face.
“What? Max come one what’s that grin for?”
Max: “I had a visitor tonight…someone very similar to your visitor three nights ago”
At the comment Liz’s expression changed and her face filled with dread. She hoped that this would never come.
Max: “It’s okay Liz, I know everything that happened…I don’t think I could be much more prouder than I am of you right now.”
Liz: Max’s statement caused her heart to fill with the love she had been trying to suppress ever since she left the Pod Chamber but as much as she wanted to run into his arms she needed to know what happened tonight.
“Max, what happened? Who came tonight?”
Max: “You did! A future…you appeared in my bedroom when I was talking with Michael, she connected with me and showed me everything.” At that point he looked down to the floor, “Liz, Future…You came from back from a year from now. A lot happened, a lot we need to talk about so that we can prevent it but first I need to show you what she showed me – it’ll be a lot easier”
Liz: As Max reached out his hand and touched her cheek her mind became a wash of images and sensations of things yet to come in the months ahead. She witnessed the kiss of Max and Tess, the Skins coming to Roswell and taking everyone away with their Wipeout machine but one thing stuck in her mind – the death of Alex at the hands of Tess.
“Max.” she said quietly “Oh god, how could we let things get that bad…how could we let that happen to him?”
Max: He could understand how she was feeling; just after his connection with Future Liz he felt the same things. The connection was fuzzy and he didn’t get all the facts but he did know that both he and Liz caused many things to go wrong in their relationship, things that they were given a second chance to get right.
“I don’t know everything that happened Liz, but we can change it. You did it once to save the planet, now we can do it again to save our friends and us.”
The two of them just stared into each other’s eyes, the pain the sparked three days ago was almost gone, they knew how the other felt about them and finally came together in a kiss of passion and love. Slowly they came apart and simply smiled at each other, Max pulled Liz into a warm embrace and held her close as she rested her head on his shoulder. Both sighed contentedly.
“We’ve got to go, the others are meeting us at Riverdog’s’ cave. It’s the only place where we can talk without Tess finding out.” Max said as he held her head to his shoulder and ran his fingers through her hair. “We go, undo whatever happened to Tess and we do everything we can to make sure we get this right.”
Lifting her head from his body and gazing deep into her eyes he spoke with sincerity and determination.
“I love you Liz and I’m never letting you go again. From now on the two of us, together, will deal with anything that comes along. No more secrets, no more hiding!”
Liz: “I love you too. Lets go!”
With that Max took her hand and lead her out the window to the waiting car and the two made their way to the cave.
Riverdog’s Cave, 1 hour later
All but Max and Liz were now gathered in the main chamber of the cave and everyone was confused. Michael had explained the evening’s events to the group but other than Liz appearing, disappearing in a flash of light and Max running out into the night, he knew nothing and was as confused as everyone else.
Maria: “God where are they?” She was getting very frustrated and was passing the cave back and forth.
Michael: “They’ll be here soon, they’ve got a lot to talk about.”
Alex: “So there was a flash of light and Liz appeared, and then after she connected with Max she was surrounded by light and then vanished!” He was still trying to work through it but it was giving him a headache trying to figure out what could be happening.
Michael: “For the hundredth time, yes. That’s all I know, then Max told me to get you all out here. He was very specific about making sure Tess was not here – he actually looked scared when he said her name.”
Isabel: “Well what ever is going on it’s a safe bet its going to be trouble.”
Max: “More than you know!” he stated as he and Liz entered the cave.
“No doubt Michael has brought you up to speed on what happened in my room tonight. Here’s what you don’t know…The Liz that appeared tonight came from one year into the future, she showed me what was going to happen - its…bad. A lot of things will happen but the worst is that one of us will die…will be murdered.”
Michael: The thought that one of his friends will be killed filled him with anger and fear – could it be Maria?
“WHO?” he said with concern
Max: He only looked down to the floor when Michael asked the question. He was desperately trying not to look up but when he did his gaze went straight to Alex. The look of horror on his human friends face filled him with hatred for what their future selves allowed to happen.
All that Alex did was stumble back and sit down on a large boulder. He didn’t know what to think or do. Every couple of seconds he would open his mouth but nothing came out until he said “How?”
Over the next hour Liz filled her friends in on her own visitation and the what would happen in the original timeline an Max told them about what he saw during his connection.
Alex: He still sat on the rock and Isabel had moved closer to him and took hold of his hand – she had tried to change the relationship she had with Alex for the simple reason that she didn’t want to get close to him in case something happened to either of them. Now after being told the he was going to die she didn’t want to be too far from him, in fact she could not get close enough too him.
Max: “The good news to all of this is that it can change, Liz did it once so it can be done again. The first thing is to help Tess, from what I got from Future Liz it wasn’t her fault – there was something inside her, influencing her. The Granolith somehow reversed it after she left Earth. We get that done then we can move on to other things – the Dupes, this Laurie Dupree and the Skins.”
Everyone just nodded their heads, as much as they wanted to just find Tess and rip her head from her body they had to try to undo what was done to her, {Well at least that’s a last resort option, even if its just to get her to shut up!} Michael thought.
Michael: “Okay so how do we deal with Tess, we don’t even know where the ‘on’ switch is on the Granolith let alone how to reverse this?”
Max: “That’s where Liz comes in.” Now everyone was even more confused – it was the one part he didn’t show Liz, he didn’t want her to freak out any more than was needed. “Tess left using the Granolith that is in the Pod Chamber but there is a second underneath the Crashdown. That one houses another type of alien; a very old alien that intends for Liz, and only Liz, to use it. There is more but that is for him to tell Liz – I don’t know more than that except that it is very important!”
The concerned expression on Max’s told the others that whatever happened in the future was risky and that Liz should be very careful when handling the Granolith.
“For now we should all go home and get some rest, we can start to deal with this mess tomorrow. Alex all I can say is that we wont let it happen again…I swear it! Michael can you take the others home just now, I need to talk with Isabel for a moment.”
With that he to turned to look at Liz, “I’ll speak to you in the morning, I have to do this just now”, Liz simply nodded and left with Michael, Maria and Alex.
Isabel: “Okay now I’m worried, what more can happen?”
Max: “Future Liz gave me a message for you…from you, she wanted you to know how she felt about Alex just before his death so that you don’t waste any time.” His cupped his sisters’ cheek and formed a connection with her. Within a few minutes Isabel started to smile and then blush.
Isabel: She never knew that she could have felt like that for anyone, the emotions were building in her until a part of the connection shifted to after Alex death. At that point the floodgates opened and Isabel started to cry. Max simply pulled her into a hug and let her cry. “Max we have to stop her and anyone else who would hurt them”
Max: “I know and we will, I’ve got enough to make sure we can prevent a lot of what is to come. After that we’ll just have to go on faith that were doing the right things. I can tell you this, I’m never letting Liz or any of the others go, I’ll fight to keep them with us no matter what. We should go home now it’s getting late!”
Isabel simply nodded and they headed out of the cave to the waiting jeep. The drive home was quiet but on a hill overlooking the cave entrance stood two men cloaked in shadow.
“Do you think they can do it?” said the elderly Native.
“They have to, once all the players are here the game begins, at least now they have the information to proceed more…wisely!” said Phoenix, “I better get to the Granolith, tomorrow will be a big day for Liz.”

Chapter 12
Whitman Residence, 3am Saturday (next morning)
Isabel couldn’t sleep, she had tried all night but she kept thinking about what Max told her in the cave. Deep inside herself she knew that she loved Alex but everything that happened to Max in the White Room and all the events before hand and afterward told her to back off. While she told herself and everyone around her that it was so she didn’t have any attachments, the truth was she didn’t want to feel the pain that Max had gone through when Liz walked away from him and if anything should happen to her, Alex would be spared as well.
However the second she heard that Alex was going to die Isabel nearly threw up…that split second had awoken the emotions that she had tried so hard to bury. She couldn’t loose him. It was a simple fact that had gotten her out of bed and over to Alex’s home.
“Alex, are you there?”
Alex: “Isabel? What are you doing here?” Alex had been pacing in his room since he returned from the cave. He had been going back and forth between his fears, hate and anger the entire night and every time he tried to sleep it off he just lay on his bed looking up at the ceiling. Unfortunately, Isabel had turned up at the wrong moment.
Isabel: “I thought we could talk…you know about what Max said tonig…”
Alex: “TALK, TALK ABOUT WHAT ISABEL! What could you possibly say that I would have the least interest in?” The anger in him had been building and unfortunately Isabel was now getting the full brunt.
Isabel: “Alex, please. I just wanted to…” She knew Alex must have been going through ten kinds of hell but she never thought he would actually respond to her like this.
Alex: “I DON’T GIVE A DAMN WHAT THE HELL YOU WANTED, BUT I CAN TELL YOU WANT I WANT…GET OUT, I WANT YOU AND YOUR ENTIRE RACE OUT OF MY LIFE FOR GOOD – GET OUT NOW AND DON’T COME BACK.”
Isabel: Tear were streaming down her face it was all she could do to climb back out of his window and run, run as far and as fast as she could. Before she knew it she collapsed next to a tree in the park and sobbed against it as the heavens opened up in a torrential downpour. Her world was caving in around her, the idea of Alex death almost killed her but they had a chance of preventing it. Now she had lost his love, something that hurt a hundred times more.
Alex: Within seconds of her departure he had calmed down, he couldn’t believe what he had just said to the one person he loved more that his own life. “What the hell have I done?” he asked himself
He shook his head, grabbed his jacket and jumped out of his window. Despite having no idea where his beloved had gone to he kept on going running on pure adrenaline and instinct until he found what he sought.
His pace had slowed to a slow walk as he made his way over to Isabel crumpled form.
“Oh god, Isabel. I’m so sorry I…didn’t mean what I said”
As he knelt beside her, Isabel looked up and into his eyes. The two of them were soaked from the rain but neither one cared. Alex slowly lifted his hand and placed it on her cheek, gently cupping it and soon Isabel’s own hand covered his as she tried to make sure she wasn’t dreaming his presence.
“Isabel, please forgive me. I don’t want to loose you…or the others. I was just…”
Isabel: She couldn’t believe he was here with her, holding his hand to the side of her tear and rain soaked face was the only reassurance that this was not a fantasy or hallucination.
“Angry, there’s nothing to forgive Alex you had every right to be angry after what we found out tonight. I promise I wont let that happen to you, I love you!”
Within seconds for her proclamation he pulled her face in toward his and they kissed, neither letting the other go, as both were desperate for the security of the other. As they pulled away from the kiss Alex pulled her back in and held her body as close to his as he could get.
“I love you too”, he whispered in her ear.
After a few minutes of more kissing, reassurances and declarations of love the two were walking gently back to the Evans, Isabel now wearing Alex’s jacket, her hand in his. Only as they crossed the park bridge did they remember the rain and with a wave of her free hand the skies began to clear and the sun began to rise on the new day.
Alley behind the Crashdown, 7am
Liz was waiting for Max to arrive, ever since he showed her what her future self showed him Liz had been dying to go down and see the second Granolith but things had to be done carefully so they decided to wait until this morning when the restaurant would be empty and they could sneak down.
“Come on Max were are you?” she mumbled
“Right here!” Max said as he came round the corner
They just stood and stared at each other until Liz caved and ran into his arms and gave him a VERY good morning kiss.
“Are you sure you want to do this?” he asked
“Yeah, we need to find away to stop Tess and whatever caused her to do this. The best option is the Granolith…is Michael going to talk to Kyle?”
“Yes, he invited Kyle over to watch the football game this afternoon. Michael will tell him everything we know - including Tess. Come on we better get this done before your parents wake up!”
The couple made their way into the storage room and Max, remembering what he did from Liz’s point of view in the future, found and touched the Granolith symbol before they climbed into the underground chamber. Though they had the memories of entering the chamber from the future and the similarities between the two Granolith Chambers, it was still a wonder to them to see the black obelisk standing in the centre of the room.
“Well from what Future You showed me, you placed your palm against the surface and were blasted back across the room and were weakened…big time!” Stated Max in as a serious tone as he could make.
“Okay, so maybe a small, quick touch won’t be as bad?” said Liz
As she said that Liz approached the Granolith, held out her index finger and tapped the Granolith. At the small contact a surge of power arched from the area where she made contact to her finger and soon she lost consciousness.
Max stood over her, gently slapping the side of her face trying to wake her up and within mere seconds she sat straight up.
“WOW, what a rush!”
“Liz, what happened?” asked a very concerned Max
Liz: “I know how to control it Max, everything it can do and I remember everything that happened when the others…when we were here in the future!”
“Good, I’m glad your learning” stated Phoenix as he stepped from the Granolith
“You! Your Phoenix right...but how can you know us we haven’t met yet” queried a still slightly woozy Liz
Phoenix: “Well I guess it was a bit much to hope for that you would understand everything after just one try…but at least you didn’t try to take too much knowledge too quickly, that’s a start.
To answer your question I also know everything that was supposed to happen because my people exist slightly outside of your normal time. When events such as time travel occur our past selves are immediately aware of what has changed and what was supposed to occur, a part of which I implanted into you when you touched to Granolith.”
Liz: “The meeting when we first found this place, you put that in me?”
There was still so much she didn’t understand but she was learning and with a tool like the Granolith she could learn a whole lot more
Phoenix: “Yes, I find that it saves time if I don’t have to have the same conversations over again. Besides a part of this was in the message you gave Max.
Max: He remembered parts of the conversation in the chamber with Phoenix, specifically about Liz’s origin and the attack by the skins but now that they had what they needed all they had to do was come up with a plan for Tess.
“Okay now this is over with and we don’t have to cover any old ground, what do we do now?”
Liz: “Actually I can modify the Granolith to help Tess but were going to need to talk to Michael and Kyle in order to get Tess down here without too much trouble but after that anything else we need to fix we’ll just have to wait and see!” Max and Liz just stared into each other’s eyes; she could see the pride and love swelling in his as she became assertive in dealing with the situation.
Phoenix: “Just one more thing, I will have to leave Earth now. My initial mission is complete and the Granolith has a careful and wise guardian. Max the knowledge to use your own granolith is locked within your own mind that Liz can help unlock.
I have a friend here who can help if you need some council in the decisions you must make in the future but he will only offer guidance – you are the ones who must make the decisions. I believe you already know him, his name is Riverdog.”
Max and Liz watched as he stepped back into the device but stood back as an energy beam shot from the point of the Granolith. It swirled around the room, surrounding the two teens that marvelled at its beauty before it vanished.
“Okay so what’s the plan?” asked Max
“Well job 1 is this!” stated Liz as she pushed Max up against the walls as she captured his lips with hers. Soon both were holding on tightly to the other as they kissed and felt each other’s bodies. As the kiss slowed to small pecks Max asked what job 2 was and all Liz said was “Tess”.
To Be Continued…
Whitman Residence, 3am Saturday (next morning)
Isabel couldn’t sleep, she had tried all night but she kept thinking about what Max told her in the cave. Deep inside herself she knew that she loved Alex but everything that happened to Max in the White Room and all the events before hand and afterward told her to back off. While she told herself and everyone around her that it was so she didn’t have any attachments, the truth was she didn’t want to feel the pain that Max had gone through when Liz walked away from him and if anything should happen to her, Alex would be spared as well.
However the second she heard that Alex was going to die Isabel nearly threw up…that split second had awoken the emotions that she had tried so hard to bury. She couldn’t loose him. It was a simple fact that had gotten her out of bed and over to Alex’s home.
“Alex, are you there?”
Alex: “Isabel? What are you doing here?” Alex had been pacing in his room since he returned from the cave. He had been going back and forth between his fears, hate and anger the entire night and every time he tried to sleep it off he just lay on his bed looking up at the ceiling. Unfortunately, Isabel had turned up at the wrong moment.
Isabel: “I thought we could talk…you know about what Max said tonig…”
Alex: “TALK, TALK ABOUT WHAT ISABEL! What could you possibly say that I would have the least interest in?” The anger in him had been building and unfortunately Isabel was now getting the full brunt.
Isabel: “Alex, please. I just wanted to…” She knew Alex must have been going through ten kinds of hell but she never thought he would actually respond to her like this.
Alex: “I DON’T GIVE A DAMN WHAT THE HELL YOU WANTED, BUT I CAN TELL YOU WANT I WANT…GET OUT, I WANT YOU AND YOUR ENTIRE RACE OUT OF MY LIFE FOR GOOD – GET OUT NOW AND DON’T COME BACK.”
Isabel: Tear were streaming down her face it was all she could do to climb back out of his window and run, run as far and as fast as she could. Before she knew it she collapsed next to a tree in the park and sobbed against it as the heavens opened up in a torrential downpour. Her world was caving in around her, the idea of Alex death almost killed her but they had a chance of preventing it. Now she had lost his love, something that hurt a hundred times more.
Alex: Within seconds of her departure he had calmed down, he couldn’t believe what he had just said to the one person he loved more that his own life. “What the hell have I done?” he asked himself
He shook his head, grabbed his jacket and jumped out of his window. Despite having no idea where his beloved had gone to he kept on going running on pure adrenaline and instinct until he found what he sought.
His pace had slowed to a slow walk as he made his way over to Isabel crumpled form.
“Oh god, Isabel. I’m so sorry I…didn’t mean what I said”
As he knelt beside her, Isabel looked up and into his eyes. The two of them were soaked from the rain but neither one cared. Alex slowly lifted his hand and placed it on her cheek, gently cupping it and soon Isabel’s own hand covered his as she tried to make sure she wasn’t dreaming his presence.
“Isabel, please forgive me. I don’t want to loose you…or the others. I was just…”
Isabel: She couldn’t believe he was here with her, holding his hand to the side of her tear and rain soaked face was the only reassurance that this was not a fantasy or hallucination.
“Angry, there’s nothing to forgive Alex you had every right to be angry after what we found out tonight. I promise I wont let that happen to you, I love you!”
Within seconds for her proclamation he pulled her face in toward his and they kissed, neither letting the other go, as both were desperate for the security of the other. As they pulled away from the kiss Alex pulled her back in and held her body as close to his as he could get.
“I love you too”, he whispered in her ear.
After a few minutes of more kissing, reassurances and declarations of love the two were walking gently back to the Evans, Isabel now wearing Alex’s jacket, her hand in his. Only as they crossed the park bridge did they remember the rain and with a wave of her free hand the skies began to clear and the sun began to rise on the new day.
Alley behind the Crashdown, 7am
Liz was waiting for Max to arrive, ever since he showed her what her future self showed him Liz had been dying to go down and see the second Granolith but things had to be done carefully so they decided to wait until this morning when the restaurant would be empty and they could sneak down.
“Come on Max were are you?” she mumbled
“Right here!” Max said as he came round the corner
They just stood and stared at each other until Liz caved and ran into his arms and gave him a VERY good morning kiss.
“Are you sure you want to do this?” he asked
“Yeah, we need to find away to stop Tess and whatever caused her to do this. The best option is the Granolith…is Michael going to talk to Kyle?”
“Yes, he invited Kyle over to watch the football game this afternoon. Michael will tell him everything we know - including Tess. Come on we better get this done before your parents wake up!”
The couple made their way into the storage room and Max, remembering what he did from Liz’s point of view in the future, found and touched the Granolith symbol before they climbed into the underground chamber. Though they had the memories of entering the chamber from the future and the similarities between the two Granolith Chambers, it was still a wonder to them to see the black obelisk standing in the centre of the room.
“Well from what Future You showed me, you placed your palm against the surface and were blasted back across the room and were weakened…big time!” Stated Max in as a serious tone as he could make.
“Okay, so maybe a small, quick touch won’t be as bad?” said Liz
As she said that Liz approached the Granolith, held out her index finger and tapped the Granolith. At the small contact a surge of power arched from the area where she made contact to her finger and soon she lost consciousness.
Max stood over her, gently slapping the side of her face trying to wake her up and within mere seconds she sat straight up.
“WOW, what a rush!”
“Liz, what happened?” asked a very concerned Max
Liz: “I know how to control it Max, everything it can do and I remember everything that happened when the others…when we were here in the future!”
“Good, I’m glad your learning” stated Phoenix as he stepped from the Granolith
“You! Your Phoenix right...but how can you know us we haven’t met yet” queried a still slightly woozy Liz
Phoenix: “Well I guess it was a bit much to hope for that you would understand everything after just one try…but at least you didn’t try to take too much knowledge too quickly, that’s a start.
To answer your question I also know everything that was supposed to happen because my people exist slightly outside of your normal time. When events such as time travel occur our past selves are immediately aware of what has changed and what was supposed to occur, a part of which I implanted into you when you touched to Granolith.”

Phoenix: “Just one more thing, I will have to leave Earth now. My initial mission is complete and the Granolith has a careful and wise guardian. Max the knowledge to use your own granolith is locked within your own mind that Liz can help unlock.
I have a friend here who can help if you need some council in the decisions you must make in the future but he will only offer guidance – you are the ones who must make the decisions. I believe you already know him, his name is Riverdog.”
Max and Liz watched as he stepped back into the device but stood back as an energy beam shot from the point of the Granolith. It swirled around the room, surrounding the two teens that marvelled at its beauty before it vanished.
“Okay so what’s the plan?” asked Max
“Well job 1 is this!” stated Liz as she pushed Max up against the walls as she captured his lips with hers. Soon both were holding on tightly to the other as they kissed and felt each other’s bodies. As the kiss slowed to small pecks Max asked what job 2 was and all Liz said was “Tess”.

Chapter 13
Michael’s Apartment, 1300 That Afternoon
Michael: How the hell did he end up with this job? He kept asking himself that every 20 minutes. While he understood why Max wasn’t going to be here Michael still wanted him to do this. Kyle had grown slightly protective of Tess ever since her abduction and the two of them were getting closer – he was not going to be happy that he was left out of any decisions that were made without his knowledge or input.
Just as Michael winced at the thought of how Kyle was going to take the news there was a knock at his door. As the door opened Michael found Kyle standing with a six pack and take out.
Kyle: “Okay for the non aliens among us I have beer, and for everyone I have curry…don’t tell my dad about the beer! Hey where are Max and Alex?”
Michael: “They are not coming, Kyle I didn’t ask you here to watch the game. I’ve got some stuff to tell you…it’ll probably be easier if you don’t speak until I’m finished!”
With that Kyle grew a confused look on his face as he sat down on the chair. Over twenty minutes Michael told Kyle everything.
Kyle: “Why wasn’t I told about this earlier, we could have…”
Michael: “Nothing could have been done Kyle, Max and Liz are still working out the details for dealing with whatever’s inside Tess and you weren’t told about the meeting because you live with Tess now…you disappearing for a couple of hours could have caused problems. I am sorry about telling you this way but we do need your help – you’re the closest one to Tess.”
Kyle: “If we do this, Tess will be okay…no lasting problems or anything?”
Michael simply nodded; he was surprised at how well Kyle was taking this. At that point the phone rang.
“Okay, yeah we’ll be there. Bye”
Kyle: “What was that?”
Michael: “That was Max, they have a plan.”
Granolith Chamber, Crashdown Restaurant, Immediately Following
Max: He had just put his cell phone back in his pocket and turned back to Liz who was kneeling at the Granoliths pedestal, slowly pressing on panels.
“Michael’s ready, all we need to do is get this thing working.”
At that point the Granolith buzzed into life.
Liz: “Done, now all we need to do is get Tess inside.”
Max: “Well Kyle could probably help there. Come on, let’s get upstairs.”
With that, he took Liz’s hand and helped her on to her feet and gently kissed her on her forehead before they made there way out of the chamber.
Alex’s Bedroom, Whitman Residence, 1500
Alex: He and Isabel spent most of the day together, just walking through the park, holding hands and reliving the moment they shared the previous night by the tree. Now they were back at his place and lying on his bed. It had just started out watching the TV while they were waiting for Max to call but now they were in each other’s arms, involved in the most passionate kiss they have had to date.
Slowly Alex opened his mouth and gently licked his loves lower lip and soon she too opened her mouth to invite him in. Both tongues duelled for control of the others mouth as Alex hand brushed through Isabel’s silken hair, holding her head close to his.
“Alexxxx…” Isabel moaned into his mouth.
Isabel: Soon she took his hand into hers and guided his hand from her hair down to her breast, completely lost in the moment she felt Alex tenderly squeeze as they still kissed. The sensations were melting her brain, she couldn’t help but moan as she moved from his mouth and started to nibble on his ear. When Isabel did that Alex lost a little more control as he too started to kiss the side of her face, her chin and eventually he buried his face in the soft curves of her neck.
While Alex ran his lips along her skin she briefly stopped what she was doing and smiled contently.
“Ughnnnn” she moaned as she shucked in her breath. Intent on not leaving Alex out of the pleasure he was giving her, she grabbed his head and pulled him back in to a kiss the caused her to see stars. The passion was burning within them and as Alex held her body close to hers she could feel his erection against her upper thigh. Isabel couldn’t get enough and she enjoyed the fact that she was slowly driving Alex crazy by grinding her body against his. Soon she latched her lips onto his neck, Isabel was claiming Alex as her own and she was going to mark him as such, as she made her way around to his Adam’s apple leaving only a glowing hickey.
They were well past the point of no return now, they may have only been together for a day and a night but they were both ready for this, they both needed to be there for each other and that they would never leave. Slowly Isabel guided her soon to be lovers’ hand down to her hip and under her skirt. As his hand passed over her naked leg and up to the apex of her thighs, both teens’ hearts began to race faster than ever before. {Thank you god for making his parent work today} she thought as they stared into each other’s eyes but when Alex reached her moist core her eyes closed and she jumped slightly at the most intimate contact they have shared.
As she slowly opened her eyes Alex began to stroke her through her underwear but Isabel was not going to leave Alex out of this, she reached out and cupped his manhood through his jeans but this still wasn’t enough so she unzipped his fly, snaked her hand into his boxers and slowly began to pump him to climax. Lost in the pleasure they were receiving for the other, they closed their eyes in concentration. Alex began to move her silk panties to the side as he started to push his index finger inside of her and within seconds he increase the pressure by inserting a second finger…then a third.
Isabel’s cell phone rang out. Both teens jumped apart at the sudden and unexpected interruption, fearing that it was one or both of Alex’s parents returning. Calming down a little after realising it was the phone, Isabel reached out to her purse and answered the very unwelcome intrusion.
“YES!!” she said in a sharp tone.
“Isabel, its Max. We’re ready over here, Kyle’s going to bring Tess down…you and Alex should probably be here as well…Are you alright – you sound out of breath?”
Max would have a stroke if he knew just how “alright” she was but the flush of heat moved to her face as she could have died from embarrassment.
“Yeah I’m fine, Alex and I were just out…running in the park!” She lied very poorly. “We’ll come right over!” and with that she hung up her phone.
Sitting back on the corner of the bed she said, “I’m going to hurt my brother badly” through her teeth
Both of them were in a fit of hysterics as Alex moved up beside her, they both gazed into each other and were moving very slowly together. The fire that had been ignited was still very much burning and needed to be put out now!
Suddenly Alex pulled back.
“We better get going, before we start something we can’t finish!” he said
“We’ve already started” as she moved her arms around Alex’s neck to pull him in. Alex never had a chance so he gave up and kissed Isabel the way they both wanted but its was then that Isabel the reason behind Max’s call, they had to deal with Tess or she could loose Alex.
She sharply pulled back, “No, your right. We have to fix the problem with Tess.”
They both back up, Alex zipped his fly back up and Isabel readjusted her panties back into place and fixed her top. They were soon locking up the house and making their way to the Crashdown.
Valenti Residence, same time
Kyle: This needed to be done but he didn’t want to hurt Tess. He rationalised his decision by saying that Tess has under the control of some alien life form and that it would save a friends life…it still didn’t make this any easier.
“Tess…Tess, are you home?”
“Yeah, What’s up”, she said as she came out of the bedroom.
“I ran into Max on my way home, they found something…they want us to meet them at the Crashdown in ten minutes.”
“Okay lets go”, Tess was curious, Nasedo told her that some alien technologies were still floating around, things he had hidden and things that were left from previous expeditions to Earth. {Maybe something I could use to help my situation?} She quietly asked herself while deep inside her Ganderial controlled mind she was screaming for the same thing…something to free her.
Earth Granolith Chamber
Everyone except for Alex and Isabel were now gathered in the chamber awaiting the arrival of Kyle and Tess. The Granolith was prepared; all they need to do was get Tess to touch it. Soon everyone attention was turned to Alex and Isabel as they entered the room. Liz and Maria burst into giggles and sniggers but Max and Michael did not look pleased at all.
“What…what’s wrong?” asked Alex. He was very confused as to what was so hilarious to his oldest friends but looks of death from his alien friends.
It was then when Isabel looked to him that she turned bright red and her confusion was gone.
“Ah, Alex…you appear to have a hickey” Maria said between sniggers. Alex shot his hand up to his neck and felt the area that Isabel had marked and then he too turned bright red.
“We’ll discuss this later”, Isabel said while staring at her brother “I hear someone coming.” Quickly Isabel moved her hand over Alex’s neck to hide the mark, right now she only wanted it covered not removed.
It was then that Kyle and Tess entered the chamber.
“Okay what have you…” Tess said as she entered the chamber, her sentence trailed off when she saw the black monument. “Okay what’s going on?”
Max and Liz already agreed on the lie they would use on Tess at this point so Max began speaking. “Liz started having dreams two days ago, they led her down here and she found this last night, she then showed it to me.”
“Nasedo never told me about the Granolith, let alone two of them. Why is it down here?”
“I have no idea” Said Liz, “But you should feel this thing, its like electricity is all over it and its warm”
Tess looked over at Liz and to Max, she could see pride in his eyes that she had the courage to touch the things…no way in hell was she going to be out done by this human. With that she reached out and touched it. It didn’t even take a second for her to be pulled inside.
She had taken the bait, both Liz and Max knew that Tess’s desire for outdoing humans and getting closer to Max would seal the deal…now they could only wait for the Granolith to do its work. Liz had programmed the device to make the procedure to do its work as painlessly as possible so after a few minutes of useless struggle she fell unconscious and the device began to glow with a yellow light.
Two Hours Later
The group were sitting around the chamber; Michael and Maria had left and came back with burgers and drinks for everyone. Kyle never touched his; he just sat back against a wall staring at Tess’s sleeping form within the Granolith. She looked so peaceful but deep in his soul he could feel her struggling for her freedom.
Liz was sitting against Max, his arm around her holding her close; she noticed how Kyle was staring and hoped that she had done everything correct. It was then that the glow stopped and Tess was thrown out of the Granolith and onto the waiting floor. Kyle was by her side in seconds and Liz approached. Everyone watched as the back of her neck cracked open and yellow liquid poured from the wound.
“Oh gross, somebody could have warned me about that” Maria said as she turned away…no way was she going to watch this. Liz grabbed the first aid kit she brought down earlier and carefully cleaned the area around her neck and placed a bandage over the small hole to let it heal.
“She’ll be asleep for a while, we should get her back home for some rest…someone had better watch over her until she wake up” Said a concerned Liz. She was never friends with Tess and the pain she had caused her in the passed few months made her hate Tess but this could go along way to smooth over some ruffled feathers.
“I’ll keep an eye on her” stated Kyle as he lifted her up into his arms
Everyone made their way out of the chamber, Max giving Kyle and Tess a lift back to the sheriffs home. He watched as Kyle placed her into his bed and took a seat next to her. Max watched Kyle; he never hesitated in any of his actions.
“Call if you need anything, okay”
Kyle never looked away from Tess, he simply nodded and Max made his way home. He told Liz he would see her later, Alex stayed with her to discuss the Granolith, and Maria had gone back to Michael’s apartment to talk to him and now it was time for a little talk with his sister.

Tess looked over at Liz and to Max, she could see pride in his eyes that she had the courage to touch the things…no way in hell was she going to be out done by this human. With that she reached out and touched it. It didn’t even take a second for her to be pulled inside.
She had taken the bait, both Liz and Max knew that Tess’s desire for outdoing humans and getting closer to Max would seal the deal…now they could only wait for the Granolith to do its work. Liz had programmed the device to make the procedure to do its work as painlessly as possible so after a few minutes of useless struggle she fell unconscious and the device began to glow with a yellow light.
Two Hours Later
The group were sitting around the chamber; Michael and Maria had left and came back with burgers and drinks for everyone. Kyle never touched his; he just sat back against a wall staring at Tess’s sleeping form within the Granolith. She looked so peaceful but deep in his soul he could feel her struggling for her freedom.
Liz was sitting against Max, his arm around her holding her close; she noticed how Kyle was staring and hoped that she had done everything correct. It was then that the glow stopped and Tess was thrown out of the Granolith and onto the waiting floor. Kyle was by her side in seconds and Liz approached. Everyone watched as the back of her neck cracked open and yellow liquid poured from the wound.
“Oh gross, somebody could have warned me about that” Maria said as she turned away…no way was she going to watch this. Liz grabbed the first aid kit she brought down earlier and carefully cleaned the area around her neck and placed a bandage over the small hole to let it heal.
“She’ll be asleep for a while, we should get her back home for some rest…someone had better watch over her until she wake up” Said a concerned Liz. She was never friends with Tess and the pain she had caused her in the passed few months made her hate Tess but this could go along way to smooth over some ruffled feathers.
“I’ll keep an eye on her” stated Kyle as he lifted her up into his arms
Everyone made their way out of the chamber, Max giving Kyle and Tess a lift back to the sheriffs home. He watched as Kyle placed her into his bed and took a seat next to her. Max watched Kyle; he never hesitated in any of his actions.
“Call if you need anything, okay”
Kyle never looked away from Tess, he simply nodded and Max made his way home. He told Liz he would see her later, Alex stayed with her to discuss the Granolith, and Maria had gone back to Michael’s apartment to talk to him and now it was time for a little talk with his sister.

Chapter 14
Evans Residence, 20 minutes later
Max arrived home and had slowly made his way to Isabel’s bedroom; he tried to work out what he was going to say or rather how he was going to say it. As he reached the door he took a deep breath and knocked…
“Isabel, are you in?”
“Yes”, he heard from behind him. He hadn’t expected her to come from behind him and almost jumped out of his skin.
“What can I do for you Max?” she asked as she placed a Tabasco covered donut in her mouth and opened the door. Both stepped inside and a small fly, barely noticed by the siblings, fly inside and perched on the wall above the window.
“Ehh, yeah…I wanted to talk to you about what happened earlier. You know with Alex.” He was turning red; no one should have to discuss sex with their sister, no matter how close they were.
“Max, I don’t want to hear it and there is no way you’re going to give me a lecture on this. I love him and I’m NEVER letting him go…” she was expecting this ever since she saw his glare in the chamber earlier but she knew where he was coming from, she and Alex were together for less than a day and they have already gone farther than she would have ever thought. She just thanked god Max had no idea how far that was.
“Is, I don’t want to tell you how to live your life but…” oh how he was going to regret this little revelation.
“But what?” Said Isabel.
“The…ehh…glowing hickey. Liz got one last year and afterward we kinda experimented a little…”
“Experimented? What does that mea…tell me you and Liz haven’t…” Isabel was getting very surprised at her brother, she knew that Max and Liz got very intense during the heat wave last year and that they spent the night alone out in the desert but she would never have suspected that they had sex.
Suddenly Max realised what Isabel had suspected, “Oh…NOOO! Liz and I…we haven’t…I mean Liz was a little curious. We found out that the glowing happens only when there is a certain level of…intensity!” Talk about intensity, just remembering those little moments just after they found the orb turned his face bright red.
“Intensity? You mean…” Isabel trailed off
“Yeah, you have to be VERY close to…going all the way.”
Isabel has having fun, she could see how much this discussion was embarrassing Max. Watching him squirm was almost adequate revenge for the interruption earlier but he was right, she didn’t want to go too fast with Alex and she too was getting a little more distracted with each passing moment as she recalled the events in his bedroom so she decided to end this now.
“Max, it’s okay. Yes Alex and I did get very intense this afternoon, but I promise we wont do anything neither of us is ready for…just like you and Liz.” She couldn’t help but smirk
Max looked straight into her eyes and nodded.
“Now…Alex is over at Liz’s so why don’t we go over there and find out more about what Liz can do? Then you can tell us more about what Future Liz showed you about what else we have to deal with.” She sighed; just thinking about what they had to deal with was nerve wracking to say the least.
Max said okay and led her out of the room, he had still to tell her that he knew of Vilandra and what happened on Antar but that was a conversation for when Tess had recovered.
Parker Residence, 17:30
Liz, Max, Isabel and Alex had gone over to the local Blockbuster and rented Braveheart, Apollo 13 and X-Men. Now they were sitting around the TV eating Pizza and were in the middle of Alex’s choice…X-Men.
“Great choice.” said Max. It was at that that Liz and Isabel simply looked at him with looks of disbelief.
“Are you crazy…no offence Alex but this sucks.” complained Liz, she wanted America’s Sweethearts but they were all rented out. Too make matters worse she was stuck watching sci-fi, she hated sci-fi. Hell her life was ten times more fantastic than anything a cheesy Hollywood producer could come up with.
“Yeah, sorry Alex I’ve got to side with Liz on this one. But at least we’re together.” As Isabel said that she took hold of his hand and rested her head against his shoulder as they sat on the floor.
Max and Liz looked at each other as Isabel made her “together” comment, they both smiled. Liz leaned over to Max’s ear and whispered “Looks like the Ice Queen is melting.” at which point they both laughed and she kissed Max’s cheek…or at least that was her intention, however Max turned at the wrong moment and their lips touched.
They both felt the electricity and jumped back but as the surprise wore off the leaned back in and started to kiss once again. It was gentle and was growing slightly more intense as Liz opened her mouth. Max, accepting the invitation, pushed his tongue into her mouth and began to suck on hers. They had both forgotten that they had company.
It was then that Isabel cleared her throat.
“Come on guys this is a PG show, knock it off until your alone.” As she looked back to Max she communicated with her eyes just what she was talking about. It was a little bit hypocritical of Max given his attempted lecture earlier in the day and she enjoyed the little interruption she gave them {Payback is great} she thought as she remembered her heated tryst with Alex…something she would still have to talk to him about.
Michael’s Apartment, Same Time
Maria: This was new and completely unexpected; Michael was pushing into her more than receptive body and with each thrust she grew closer to climax. Her moaning was turning Michael on, every time she yelled out in pleasure she could feel Michael growing a little bit harder…neither of them knew it could go much more but it was happening and both wanted it to go on forever.
Michael: He had asked Maria to come to his apartment to talk about their relationship. Ever since he killed Pierce he had distanced himself from her so that she wouldn’t get hurt but after hearing that Alex was supposed to die in the future he freaked. He did love her and as much as he wanted to protect Maria he realised that none of them would live forever no matter how much power you had. He decided that he would rather spend as much time with her as he could than spend whatever time they had left without her.
When he told her that, the pretending between them was over and they lunged at each other. Their emotions boiled up to the surface as the two teens kissed, Michael felt that Maria was kissing the soul right out of him.
Their lips fused together, long and hard for what seems like an eternity, their tongues battled for domination and their hands were going where they never have gone before, moaning into each other, they could feel their hearts beginning to mend.
Michael loomed over her, casting a shadow over her face, passion, lust and above all else love, Maria could see everything in his eye's. But also hunger, need, intensity began to show as well. She only had to look to see his intention before he or she acted on it.
“I don't know what is going to happen to us in the future but if you want me to stop say it now before we go to far” Michael’s confident but also hesitant voice rang loud and clear.
“Don't stop, I want this more than anything, I want you! “ Maria said without thinking, her eye's conveyed it all, Michael then growled like an animal, scolding her with his intense gaze, as he reaches down and takes her lips with his own again.
Michael assaulted her mouth with his own, invading her without the slightest hint of hesitation. He has never longed for a woman like he has with Maria, crushing her to his chest. Michael slowly pushed Maria backward until she felt the pressure of the bed against her legs. He gently pushed her so that she would fall onto the bed and falling with her he pushed Maria’s arms up over her head, securing them there with his right hand. Slowly he began to trail kisses across her face and up to her ear, sucking on it.
Maria’s whole body was on fire, her panties became wet, her nipples hard against her bra, she can feel Michael's hard cock through his jeans up against her stomach, she revelled in the fact that she made him feel this way, she was the cause of his arousal and she could do this at any time.
“I've fantasized about this more than you can possibly know” Michael couldn’t believe this was actually happening. {God, she is so beautiful} he thought, she smells so good to him, she is a goddess, his goddess, his pixie. Neither of them had any idea that tonight was going to be like this. The passion and lust had always been there, but now love was apart of the equation and it’s never been this powerful.
His free hand began to move to her breast, brushing her nipple, gently teasing it with his palm through the thin veil of cloth of her shirt, his tongue caressed her earlobe, his lips closed around it, sending shivers of intense pleasure through her body.
“Oh god, Michael.” No one could ever make her feel this way, only her true mate could. Her body was becoming more relaxed; it knew its true master was this rebel alien who loved and who was pleasing her so completely.
Michael stepped closer, moving his knee between her legs, pressing against her core as his mouth took control of hers once more. He deepened the kiss, as she brought her tongue to his, their hearts were beating wildly. His hand slid over her soft, flat stomach to the hem of her shirt; slowly his fingers stroked her warm body. His index finger rubbed gently along where the shirt had been pulled away from the waistband of her jeans. His hand ventured beneath her shirt, Maria arched her back upon receipt of the new sensations. Michael loved this but the lust caused him to loose a little patience and he ripped her shirt from her, sending buttons flying to all corners of the room. Maria didn’t care, all she was interested in was Michael, besides he could repair it later but now she was allowing him to find the clasp of her bra, she longed to be free of it of the confinement. Free of everything that had constricted and contained her breasts for so long.
“You feel so good Maria, soooooo good” he said in between kisses, his eye's clouded with love and passion.
“I've wanted you for so long” Michael found the clasp at the front and undid her bra. He then released her wrists but when Maria tried to remove the garment Michael lunged down and attacked her breasts with his mouth, he was like a hungry baby aching for its next meal.
At last her bra falls to the floor, joining the remains of her shirt, her skin burned under the heat of his gentle yet firm touch.
“Maria” he moaned against her breast, slowly taking one nipple into his mouth, sucking it like a feral animal, tugging on it with his lips and teeth, tasting her soft flesh. Soft needful noises came from deep within her throat as Michael's right hand teased her other nipple.
This new need outweighing anything the two could think of at the moment. Michael quickly undid Maria’s jeans and pushed them down over her hips and legs. He became transfixed for a moment as he stared at her panties and the dampness between her legs; the dampness he caused but all too soon he pulled them off of her hips and tossed them onto the floor with the rest of her clothing. Maria reached for the waistband of her lover’s jeans, unfastening the button and tugging on his zipper, she brought her leg up to his waist and caught hold of the denim material and without any problem pulled his jeans to his ankles with her toes. Maria gazed into his smouldering eyes as she reached her hand into his boxers, seeking out her target and wrapping her soft hands around his painfully erect shaft, feeling the length and stroking him from base to tip, possessing him completely.
“Oh god Maria...I need you so bad” Michael’s voice rasped, Maria's small hand stroking him, bringing him that much closer to completion.
“ I love you Maria, never anyone else but you.” he says as she grinds herself against his penis, creating friction that drives Michael crazy. Carefully, Michael thrust partly into Maria, stopping briefly to allow her to prepare for the loss of her virginity but as she nods he pushed in further, sheathing himself completely inside her sopping wet hole.
“AHHH...please Michael...do it now!” Maria moans, her eye's closed and head thrown back. She could barely believe that Michael was inside her, filling every inch of emptiness within her.
“So tight Maria, Christ, you're so tight...you’re mine, forever!” Michael growls, silently praying he can last longer than a minute.
Maria moaned her agreement and joy; she held his body in place, pushing him further and further inside her tight sex. Just the feeling of Maria’s passage around him was almost enough to make him want to cum but what began as a slowly rhythm of Michael inserting his length within her had become an intense barrage of mindless runts and thrusts. Michael was filling her completely, she was complete and it was because of him.
“Jesus, you feel so good.” Michael simply cannot believe he is fucking Maria Deluca in his bedroom, it’s a dream come true.
“Faster Michael...ahhh god...harder, make me cum” Maria whimpered in his ear, her need is overwhelming she began to clench Michael’s cock with every stroke.
“Never felt like this, never!” Michael said as Maria met him thrust for thrust, her small but athletic body matching his own movements in every way. Michael was determined to make his love cum first, she deserved it after putting up with him all these months and then it happened.
“I 'm cummiinng...gggoooddd!!! Michaeeelll!!!” Maria finally cried out in release, throwing her head back on the pillow as she pushed her hips down one last time, causing Michael to surrender and join her in the pleasure they had invoked in the other. Her juices soaking Michael’s cock, her cum running down his length and his cock starting to soften, still in her cunt. Her arms wrapped around his neck, her body shaking and convulsing in her orgasm, she held on to Michael as it passed, never wanting to let him go.
Gently, Michael removed her arms; he reached down pulling the blankets tossed off during their love making over their sweaty bodies. Within minutes of whispered I love you’s, they fell asleep within each others arms, neither noticing the glowing hickey beginning to form where Michael latched on to her breast earlier.
Earth and Antarian Granolith Chambers, a few seconds later
On the walls of both chambers, eight symbols appeared. Within a few minutes the Granoliths shot forth a beam toward two of the glyphs and they began to mould together, forming one perfect unit.
Kyle/Tess’s Bedroom, Valenti Residence, 7 hours later
Jim: He had been on duty all day but Michael had given him a call and brought him up to speed. Now that he could finally get home he found Tess in bed and Kyle sitting on a chair by her side. He had apparently fallen asleep but he still held onto her hand. Slowly Jim made his way over to Kyle and gently shook him awake.
“Kyle…Kyle why don’t you go to my room and get a little sleep? I’ll sit with her for a while.
Kyle: He had no idea he had fallen asleep, since he brought Tess home he had just taken a hold of her hand and simply looked at her sleeping. He had never felt that much contentment in his life, just watching her was peaceful.
Now that he was awake, he looked at the clock and then looked back toward his father, slowly shaking his head.
“No, I’m not leaving her dad.”
“Kyle, you need to get a decent nights sleep!” said Jim. He was concerned but also very proud of the way his son was dealing with the situation.
“Dad, I’m staying. I’ll see you in the morning but I can’t leave her tonight.” Kyle whispered as he sat back in the chair, slowly placing her hand back under the covers.
Jim knew this was a no win situation, he had seen how Tess and his son had grown closer during her stay. Although he had suspected that Kyle had feelings for the young alien he never had any proof until now…he obviously cared for her, a lot more than he expected. He smiled and left the room.

Chapter 15
Liz’s Bedroom, Parker Residence, Sunday Morning 5am
Liz: Ever since she connected with the Granolith, Liz had found it difficult to sleep. The most she could hope for in the last two nights was 4 hours, maybe 5, she was on a high – too much energy floating around her system and to make matters worse every time Max was within 5 feet of her, her blood would boil, she used every fibre of self restraint within her not to take him on one of the restaurant tables.
“God…this is ridicules!” she gave up trying to sleep and jumped out of bed, heading for a nice hot shower. Getting up this early on a Sunday morning may not be natural but she might as well use the opportunity to check out the Granolith, much of what she knew was based purely on instinct and in an emergency she would prefer to know exactly what she was doing.
Liz turned on the shower and slowly stripped of her clothes. A minute later the room was beginning to fill with steam and water was pouring down her body…that was when it started, an all too familiar feeling began to stir within her and was rapidly growing. While soaping her body Liz’s memories began to jump back to when she and Max first found the orb. The heat wave sparked passion in many couples that day and she and Max were no different, the intensity of what happened was turning her on no end.
Liz stopped resisting, she dropped the sponge and moved her hand slowly to her left breast and squeezed. Biting her lower lip to stop from crying out at the simple touch was all she could do as she started to pinch her rapidly hardening nipples. Her free hand moved though her soaked hair, across her shoulder and down to the rapidly growing fire between her legs. Throwing her head back in pleasure, Liz’s hair fell freely down her back, her eyes were closed, she began to imagine Max in the room with her – touching her body, caressing every inch and bringing her more pleasure than she had ever experienced.
Tentatively she stroked her middle finger along her slit, pausing briefly to apply gentle pressure to her clit. With a gentle moan she removed her hand from her soft mound and pressed it against the tiled wall. Leaning forward and tilting her pelvis up, she pushed two fingers inside her…the image of Max standing behind her, ploughing into her with rapid thrusts filled her head. Soon she added a third finger, the sensations were incredible and pretty soon she couldn’t even stand. She knelt down in the tub and put her hands back to work, she was so close to her climax that she forgot about everything but the fantasy of Max pinning her against the wall of the Girl’s Locker Room shower stall with her legs wrapped around his waist and slowly grinding against one another. That did it.
As Liz slowly came back to reality, she wiped water from her face and left the shower. She could believe that the single session she just enjoyed brought her so much pleasure, leaning back against the wall the grin she had turned into a giggle as she brought her finger to her mouth and bit on it nervously. She shook her head and brought herself out of the relived memories, while drying herself from the water she looked around and found her hairbrush and got on with her normal routine.
Little did she know that across town Max had woken up out of a very hot dream, he too went to his shower…a cold shower, but it was not helping to quench the flames! Eventually he started to tend to his own needs. Sliding his hand up and down his engorged shaft he brought about his own climax at the same moment as Liz.
Earth Granolith Chamber, 0540
Liz was now fully dressed and had made her way down to the one part of her home that her parents knew nothing about. Now fully recovered from the shower incident, she entered the blue room and walked straight over to the alien machine that had become a very large part of her. Slowly Liz turned and noticed the new symbols on the walls and to the left and right of it, faint imprints of two other symbols.
“Okay, that’s new!” she thought out loud.
As Liz gazed at the symbol her sub conscious took control and acting purely on instinct she touched the Granolith, closed her eyes and concentrated. Seconds later, she opened her eyes and had seen the two faint symbols had turned into the faces of Michael and Maria and along with it came the knowledge of what was happening. The blush that appeared on her face could have almost caused the room to glow as she bowed her head and stared at the floor. She couldn’t wait to tell Max this one.
Valenti Residence, Same time
Kyle: Ever since his father had woken him last night Kyle never fell asleep again. Instead he kept a constant vigil over the sleeping blond alien that had taken control of his bedroom and, as much as he hated to admit it, his heart as well.
“Come on Tess, come back to me please!” he whispered has he kissed her hand and brushed a stray hair from her face. {God} he thought, {How could you be asleep for nearly a day and still look so beautiful}.
It was then that she opened her eyes and sat straight up, looking around, trying to remember where she was. Kyle looked at her as the sudden, unexpected movement had startled him.
“Tess, are you okay?”
She slowly realised where she was and what had happened, some thing had violated her mind and the others had managed to help her. However, the emotional damage was done and she could help but start to cry as she remembered what she had almost started – the initial mindwarps were in place for Alex’s little field trip. Next thing she knew was that Kyle had his arms wrapped around her, telling her that it was okay and that she was safe.
That was the next thing she remembered, when in the Granolith her senses were heightened, she knew the others were waiting for her to emerge but it was Kyle’s presence that she felt the most, he was the one willing her to get through the pain and slowly she moved her arms around him, hugging him back.
Kyle slowly let go and backed off, “Are you hungry? Do you want anything to eat or drink?” he asked running his palm down her face.
Tess shook her head. “No, just stay with me for a while.”
Kyle nodded as he moved the pillows and helped her get comfortable. Tess gazed straight in to Kyle’s eyes when he sat back down, before long she realised that she was staring just a little too hard for someone who used to try and be with Max. She then realised what she had just said to herself {Used to try? When did I stop trying?}, she shook her head and looked back to Kyle and smiled.
“Okay” said Tess, “I’ve obviously missed a lot so why don’t you bring me up to speed!”
Kyle went over everything that had happened in the last couple of days, everything but the revelation of Alex’s future demise. Tess knew Kyle was leaving something out; he talked about everyone but Alex…the person who was part of her plan. She knew that what she was going to do would severely weaken the human mind and she could guess at what happened to him, but if she was ever going to be able to look any of them in the face again she needed to hear the words and find someway to seek atonement.
“Kyle, I need you tell me everything…Alex is the only one you haven’t talked about…what happened…or was supposed to happen…whatever?”
He nodded, everything would now told.
Whitman Residence, 6am
Max wasn’t the only Evans that was up early. Isabel dressed in a loose fitting knee length skirt and a woollen pullover that had a very large neck opening that allowed the edge to fall down at the shoulders. She had needed to fuc…no she needed to TALK to Alex, she thought to herself. She promised Max they would slow down but every time she was near him or even thought about him she would go into heat.
“I can do this!” she said as she made her way up his driveway. “I can control this, I’m just going to talk to him.”
At that she reached the door and knocked. His parents had called and told him they were going out of town for the night and not to worry.
Alex opened the door, dressing in only a pair of jogging bottoms and was completely naked from the waist up. “Oh god, who the hell am I kidding?” said Isabel as her body filled with love and lust.
Pushing a surprised Alex back inside his home, she followed and slammed the door shut. Grabbing him, she caressed his upper arms as she kissed him. Now Alex was filled with the same emotions as his beloved. He pushed her back against the nearest wall, her left arm wrapped around his neck. It provided the perfect leverage. Isabel pushed up, wrapped her legs around his waist and used her free hand to pull her skirt up a little giving all the access he needed.
Alex had stopped kissing her mouth and was now working his way down her neck. His hand had grabbed the opening of her jumper and stretched the neck space enough to pull it down over both shoulders, exposing her naked breasts as he pushed it to her waist and off her arms. Upon seeing her braless tits Alex could not resist. Touching was not an option, he needed to kiss and lick them and that just what he did. Isabel held his head to her heaving bosom, gasping for each breath when her lover bit down on one of her rosy nipples.
Her other hand was not idle, she reach out and used her powers to push his joggers down so that they pooled around his ankles. When she could feel his exposed erection against her legs; the heat in her body doubled, she reached out and took hold of it in her hand, gently stoking it as she had done earlier. God how she loved the feel of the hardened silk in her hand but this was not enough right now.
Alex sensed her need and grabbed hold of her thighs. Gently he followed her legs to where they met and as Alex looked to her face, he took hold of her panties and ripped them off. Isabel was pleasantly surprise at his aggressiveness but no more so than Alex who looked to his hand and found a pair of red silk & lace panties – oh how he loved to see Isabel in red and she knew it, that’s why she wore them. He slowly reached back under her skirt, which was now bunched up around her waist with her jumper and placed his hand firmly against her wet centre. She was ready for him and he was more than ready for her.
Isabel pulled him back into another white-hot kiss as she took hold of his penis and positioned herself above it. Staring intensely into each other’s eyes, Alex nodded and she lowered herself onto him. Their eyes closed for a moment and they held their breaths, never did they imagine that it would be like this. Isabel felt like every inch of her was full while Alex was completely surrounded by her, slowly she began to move up and down, grinding back and forth creating a delicate friction that was driving them both crazy. Soon Alex was matching her movements, their eyes, open, never leaving the other. Alex kicked away his joggers and was now slamming into Isabel, the two were simply rutting away like animals, and their need for the other overwhelmed them.
Once again Isabel had her armed wrapped around his neck as they were kissing each other’s souls. Alex had moved down the hallway, his alien goddess moving around on his erection while clenching muscles that she didn’t know she had. Each time they hit a wall he couldn’t stop himself from taking the opportunity to thrust in and out of her a few times before moving again. Eventually they made it to his bedroom where Alex sat her down on an empty space on his desk and continued making love to her. The sweat was dripping of their bodies as they pleasured each other but while a lot of her was exposed to his intense glare Isabel wanted to be naked with him. She reached down and pulled her jumper over her head while using her powers to open a gap down the length of her skirt so that it could just come away.
Isabel soon pushed Alex of her, at which point he looked at her confused – had he done something wrong? He thought. Isabel smirked at him; standing up from the desk she exposed her full natural beauty to him. She held out her hand and as he took it she pulled him in for a loving yet very playful kiss. The fun was by no means over…she just wanted to take a breather, little did they no that they had spent nearly an hour out in the hall – for them time had no meaning. Gently she pushed Alex on to his bed where she straddled him and took his cock back into her hand guiding him back to where he belonged.
“I’m going to ride you so good your going to beg me to stop!” Isabel sighed, concentrating on the throbbing member re-entering her body. Her face changed quickly as the knob of his cock that found its way inside her was followed by several more inches of hard, silkiness. “Ohhhh god right there.” Isabel uttered.
“Never going to happen…ohhh god. You are amazing Isabel” Alex said softly, revelling in the feel of her around him.
“Doing my best my love.” Isabel gasped, her eye's going wide, and her mouth forming a circle as Alex’s prick slid fully into her into her. She waited for a moment, silently counting to ten before beginning to work her hips back in the pace they had set earlier.
“Aaahhh Jesus!!!!” Alex gasped, as Isabel picked up the pace, literally pouncing up and down, her whole body centred on his thick rod of flesh that spread her wide open with each downward stroke.
Alex slid his hands up her body, filling both of his hands with Isabel's full breasts, using his thumbs and index fingers to stimulate and pinch her erect nipples.
“Cum for me Alex!” she demanded breathlessly, the new sensations sending jolts of pleasure through her overly stimulated body. “Cum for me Alex...please…do it!” Isabel shouted, clenching her pussy riding his cock hard and fast, shoving her pelvis down on to him fucking him as if she is in a trance.
Isabel's demands had the desired effect, almost as if by command, Alex’s cock began to swell, growing thicker by the second. He could feel the pleasure building deep inside his body and as Isabel sat down hard on his twitching muscle, he buried it deep inside her and held her waist, preventing her from moving. Quickly she started to clench her sex hard bringing them to the end.
“Ohhh fuuucckk!!!!!!” Alex grunted, as his seed spurted into Isabel’s womb.
Isabel said nothing as she continued to grind her hips in delirious pleasure; Alex continued to pump his spunk into her wet pussy. As their liquids began to mix as one they slowly came down from the high of their orgasms.
“Alex, I couldn’t have hoped for better!” Isabel exclaimed, collapsing on his chest.
He couldn’t help but smile at her declaration. All too soon for his tastes, his softening penis slipped from her body and they lay there side by side, holding on to each other for dear life. The two of them were never going to forget this day and both of them knew that they could never live without the other. Soon they drifted off into a quiet sleep.
Granolith Chamber, Crashdown Café, a few seconds later
Liz sat at the base of the device pressing buttons and panels. Kyle and Tess then arrived but Liz didn’t notice, her eyes were closed in concentration.
“Liz…LIZ, anybody home in there?” Said Kyle as he shook her shoulder.
“Kyle”, yelled Liz. She was lost in her exploration of the Granolith and Kyle’s interruption had been a surprise that caused her heart to jump and her body to fall backwards. “God, Kyle you scared the hell out of me!”
“Sorry but Tess wanted to see this thing…and you” he said rather sheepishly.
Liz then looked over to Tess, for the first time in quite a while she actually looked humble and less confident.
“Hey Tess, how are you feeling?” asked Liz.
“Fine…I think. A little bit of a headache but its getting better…Liz, Kyle told me everything and I just wanted to say thank you and that I’m sorry for everything I’ve put you through in the past. I know that’s a little insignificant right now but…” Said Tess. She never thought that she would apologize to Liz, Tess always thought that Liz had no place with the group but after hearing about her origins and her connection to this Granolith had changed all that. Besides Liz had just saved her soul from imprisonment within her own body.
Just as Liz was about to respond and tell her that all was forgiven, it happened. Six of the remaining eight symbols appeared on the walls, this time four faded and the remaining two came together to form a new symbol.
“What just happened?” asked Kyle.
“That is something I need to discuss with Max before you guys, sorry but he’s the guardian of the other Granolith.” Stated Liz, she knew exactly what caused the symbols to appear but she needed Max and his Granolith to confirm what she had found. No-body was going to be happy about the fact that they were beginning to act like horny rabbits because to what the Granoliths were doing. At least it only lasted until the couples had actually crossed the line and a connection was formed between them.
“Where is Max anyway, I thought he would be here by now?” asked Kyle.
“Yeah, He has some errands to run for his parents. He said he would be here later, then after I have a little talk with him and hopefully be able to prevent him from blowing up at Isabel and Alex, we are going out to the Pod Chamber.”
“Okay what did I miss, why would he blow up at his sister?” Kyle said, looking back at an equally confused Tess.
“The…ehhh…symbols come together when a connection is formed between two people from the group…the ones over there were Michael and Maria, the new one was Alex and Isabel.” Liz was blushed profoundly. The meaning of connection was not lost on either of her friends when they saw her hesitation and bright red skin.
“Come on, let’s go upstairs and I’ll get you some coke.” Said Liz as she led the others out of the chamber. Kyle and Tess looked at each other, they had been feeling a growing heat between them since she had woken up and there were four symbols remaining on the walls. They both started to slightly blush, knowing that it was only a matter of time before they too caved. Tess was quite surprised that she didn’t find the idea of sex with a human to be repugnant; in fact she was looking forward to it, she just wished she knew what Liz was talking about when she said it had something to do with the Granoliths.
Alex’s Bedroom, Whitman Residence, 07:05
They hadn’t even slept for twenty minutes before Alex woke up again. He thought that he had dreamed the entire thing until he saw his love lying next to him on her front. Alex couldn’t resist as he pulled back the covers to reveal her naked back and gently he kissed her left shoulder, she smiled contentedly. He kissed her skin again, this time a little lower, and again and again, each time his lips connected with her skin she smiled and sighed. There was no doubt in his mind that she was just as awake as he was.
“Alex, what are you doing?” asked Isabel. She wasn’t complaining about what he doing, she loved it, in fact she never felt like this in her life.
Alex reached back down and kissed the centre of her back and bringing his head back up he said, “Loving you!” His hand then made its way under the duvet to the firm globes of her ass, as he gently stroked on each cheek Isabel sighed. That was when she rolled over.
“Alex, you don’t regret what happened between us. Do you?” Isabel asked with concern in her voice.
“No…it was a little more wild than I imagined our first time would be but, no I don’t regret it. Do you?” the calm and determination on his voice calmed her fears. She shook her head and pulled him in for another kiss.
Alex then pulled away sharply “Ohh no!” He never explained to a now frightened Isabel as he jumped up out of the bed and ran into the hallway. Isabel just watched his naked ass has he moved. Soon he returned from the hall carrying his jogging bottoms and her red panties in his hands.
“I don’t think it would be a good idea for my parents to come home and find these in the hall.” He said as he jumped back into bed with his girlfriend, Isabel just started to laugh her head off and was soon followed by Alex. Soon Alex had his hand on her hip and they were kissing again, Isabel’s breasts pressed against his torso.
“I’d better get home before my mom wonders where I’ve got to!” said Isabel as she backed away. Alex was disappointed but understood, he watched as Isabel slid from the warm bed and started to dress quickly, repairing any damage to her clothes. As Alex sat up in bed a now fully dressed Isabel came over to him and gave him a goodbye kiss.
“I’ll see you later my love.” She whispered in his ear before she left the room.
Alex got out of bed when he heard the front door close; it was going to take a miracle to get that grin off his face. He reached over and pulled on his joggers. That was when he noticed it; on his desk were Isabel’s panties. {No way would she forget those} he thought to himself as he approached them, picking them up and placing them in the pocket of the jeans he was going to wear today, his smile grew even larger at the idea that she had left them for him. He then decided to get on with the rest of the day; he showered, cleaned the house and ate breakfast. God knows when his parents were coming home but he was buzzing with energy and by the time he was done he felt he could go a few more rounds with his alien princess.
Michael’s Apartment, 0800am
They had been awake for hours and the entire time they were making love. Michael simply couldn’t get enough of the way she felt and Maria herself was addicted. They had just finished session no. 5 and neither of them were exhausted, each and every time they came together was like a fusion of their souls. Last night was a wild rut but this morning they were loving and caring, both full of energy and new what their lover would find pleasing. Something had connected between them last night; a spark had formed and had grown into a bolt of lightning that charged their bodies at the slightest contact.
Michael decided to do the impossible, he was going to leave the bed. Amazingly he made it out but he had a good incentive, he was going to make Maria breakfast in bed. Last night had formed a connection, he was sure of that but it had also awaked a slight romantic streak within him that he never knew he had. Nothing mattered to Michael more than Maria’s happiness.
30 minutes, 10 pancakes and another sex session later Maria decided that she had better get home. She had called last night and told her mother that she was staying with Liz and she had agreed to cover for her. There was no doubt that if her mother found out about tonight she would be pissed and Michael wouldn’t live to see another hour. Slowly she dressed; teasing Michael as she returned her bra and panties to there correct positions and pulled on the rest of her clothes. Michael was hard again in no time but he knew she had to leave now and as much as he wanted to take her again, he was not going to get on the wrong side of her mother.
Antarian Granolith Chamber, 14:00
Max had picked up Liz as promised and they made their way out to the chamber. The scene was identical to the other room; two symbols were on the walls flanked on either side by four faint symbols. Max’s control was still dormant but through a connection with Liz she had taught him what she knew about the Granoliths.
After a little experimentation and a lot of hit and misses, it was confirmed. Liz was correct in her discovery of what was happening with the group and the two alien machines. Never before had two Granoliths been active on the same planet and now the two of them were talking, sharing information and on some level, sharing their conscious aspects of the programming…the Granoliths were becoming one and as a result of the energy released, the emotions of Max, Liz and the others were heightened.
Max was almost ready to find Alex and beat the crap out of him when Liz explained what the symbols meant but the fact that neither Alex nor Isabel were entirely in control of their actions helped a little bit. Soon the preparations made by the two machines would be complete, it was only a matter time before Max and Liz & Kyle and Tess gave into their desires. At first Max found it odd that he and Liz, the guardians of the Granoliths, had not been the first to be affected but after a little investigation Liz found the answer…Family.
The group was made from two sub units – Human and Antarian. The bonding over the last year and a half had made them into a family and the energy had travelled to the couples, allowing the systems to merge and grow in power. However things were moving too slowly for the Granolith’s liking, so they communicated and decided to speed the binding up by increasing the hormone levels of the group and causing them to mate with their significant others. Soon now it will be complete and there will only be one Granolith, a power that Kivar could only hope to have control over.
Max and Liz were curious as well as to what the final result would be but they would have to wait. So they decided to go outside watch the clouds go by before they headed home to tell the others. Good thing this little mystery was now over, the Harvest of the Skins was about to happen – they had to decide what to do.
Max/Isabel Shared Bathroom, Evans Residence, 1900 the next day
Isabel: She was sitting on the edge of the bathtub, looking down at the item that was sitting on the toilet seat. She couldn’t believe she was this stupid, Max was going to freak and her parents were going to kill her. She called Max earlier and he was going to be here soon, she was not going to enjoy this.
“Iz, you here?” Max yelled as he entered her bedroom.
“In here Max” she yelled. Max opened the door and looked into his sister’s face, all he saw was fear and concern.
“Iz what’s up? Are you okay?” Isabel turned her head and looked down to the floor and then up to the toilet seat. Max followed her gaze and looked at the item…he was floored, he could not believe what he was seeing.
“Isabel…I…” he trailed off.
“I’m in big trouble Max!” she whispered.
To Be Continued…
Liz’s Bedroom, Parker Residence, Sunday Morning 5am

The most she could hope for in the last two nights was 4 hours, maybe 5, she was on a high – too much energy floating around her system and to make matters worse every time Max was within 5 feet of her, her blood would boil, she used every fibre of self restraint within her not to take him on one of the restaurant tables.

Kyle: Ever since his father had woken him last night Kyle never fell asleep again. Instead he kept a constant vigil over the sleeping blond alien that had taken control of his bedroom and, as much as he hated to admit it, his heart as well.
“Come on Tess, come back to me please!” he whispered has he kissed her hand and brushed a stray hair from her face. {God} he thought, {How could you be asleep for nearly a day and still look so beautiful}.

When she could feel his exposed erection against her legs; the heat in her body doubled, she reached out and took hold of it in her hand, gently stoking it as she had done earlier. God how she loved the feel of the hardened silk in her hand but this was not enough right now.
Alex sensed her need and grabbed hold of her thighs. Gently he followed her legs to where they met and as Alex looked to her face, he took hold of her panties and ripped them off. Isabel was pleasantly surprise at his aggressiveness but no more so than Alex who looked to his hand and found a pair of red silk & lace panties – oh how he loved to see Isabel in red and she knew it, that’s why she wore them. He slowly reached back under her skirt, which was now bunched up around her waist with her jumper and placed his hand firmly against her wet centre. She was ready for him and he was more than ready for her.
Isabel pulled him back into another white-hot kiss as she took hold of his penis and positioned herself above it. Staring intensely into each other’s eyes, Alex nodded and she lowered herself onto him. Their eyes closed for a moment and they held their breaths, never did they imagine that it would be like this. Isabel felt like every inch of her was full while Alex was completely surrounded by her, slowly she began to move up and down, grinding back and forth creating a delicate friction that was driving them both crazy. Soon Alex was matching her movements, their eyes, open, never leaving the other. Alex kicked away his joggers and was now slamming into Isabel, the two were simply rutting away like animals, and their need for the other overwhelmed them.
Once again Isabel had her armed wrapped around his neck as they were kissing each other’s souls. Alex had moved down the hallway, his alien goddess moving around on his erection while clenching muscles that she didn’t know she had. Each time they hit a wall he couldn’t stop himself from taking the opportunity to thrust in and out of her a few times before moving again. Eventually they made it to his bedroom where Alex sat her down on an empty space on his desk and continued making love to her. The sweat was dripping of their bodies as they pleasured each other but while a lot of her was exposed to his intense glare Isabel wanted to be naked with him. She reached down and pulled her jumper over her head while using her powers to open a gap down the length of her skirt so that it could just come away.
Isabel soon pushed Alex of her, at which point he looked at her confused – had he done something wrong? He thought. Isabel smirked at him; standing up from the desk she exposed her full natural beauty to him. She held out her hand and as he took it she pulled him in for a loving yet very playful kiss. The fun was by no means over…she just wanted to take a breather, little did they no that they had spent nearly an hour out in the hall – for them time had no meaning. Gently she pushed Alex on to his bed where she straddled him and took his cock back into her hand guiding him back to where he belonged.
“I’m going to ride you so good your going to beg me to stop!” Isabel sighed, concentrating on the throbbing member re-entering her body. Her face changed quickly as the knob of his cock that found its way inside her was followed by several more inches of hard, silkiness. “Ohhhh god right there.” Isabel uttered.
“Never going to happen…ohhh god. You are amazing Isabel” Alex said softly, revelling in the feel of her around him.
“Doing my best my love.” Isabel gasped, her eye's going wide, and her mouth forming a circle as Alex’s prick slid fully into her into her. She waited for a moment, silently counting to ten before beginning to work her hips back in the pace they had set earlier.
“Aaahhh Jesus!!!!” Alex gasped, as Isabel picked up the pace, literally pouncing up and down, her whole body centred on his thick rod of flesh that spread her wide open with each downward stroke.
Alex slid his hands up her body, filling both of his hands with Isabel's full breasts, using his thumbs and index fingers to stimulate and pinch her erect nipples.
“Cum for me Alex!” she demanded breathlessly, the new sensations sending jolts of pleasure through her overly stimulated body. “Cum for me Alex...please…do it!” Isabel shouted, clenching her pussy riding his cock hard and fast, shoving her pelvis down on to him fucking him as if she is in a trance.
Isabel's demands had the desired effect, almost as if by command, Alex’s cock began to swell, growing thicker by the second. He could feel the pleasure building deep inside his body and as Isabel sat down hard on his twitching muscle, he buried it deep inside her and held her waist, preventing her from moving. Quickly she started to clench her sex hard bringing them to the end.
“Ohhh fuuucckk!!!!!!” Alex grunted, as his seed spurted into Isabel’s womb.
Isabel said nothing as she continued to grind her hips in delirious pleasure; Alex continued to pump his spunk into her wet pussy. As their liquids began to mix as one they slowly came down from the high of their orgasms.
“Alex, I couldn’t have hoped for better!” Isabel exclaimed, collapsing on his chest.
He couldn’t help but smile at her declaration. All too soon for his tastes, his softening penis slipped from her body and they lay there side by side, holding on to each other for dear life. The two of them were never going to forget this day and both of them knew that they could never live without the other. Soon they drifted off into a quiet sleep.
Granolith Chamber, Crashdown Café, a few seconds later
Liz sat at the base of the device pressing buttons and panels. Kyle and Tess then arrived but Liz didn’t notice, her eyes were closed in concentration.
“Liz…LIZ, anybody home in there?” Said Kyle as he shook her shoulder.
“Kyle”, yelled Liz. She was lost in her exploration of the Granolith and Kyle’s interruption had been a surprise that caused her heart to jump and her body to fall backwards. “God, Kyle you scared the hell out of me!”
“Sorry but Tess wanted to see this thing…and you” he said rather sheepishly.
Liz then looked over to Tess, for the first time in quite a while she actually looked humble and less confident.
“Hey Tess, how are you feeling?” asked Liz.
“Fine…I think. A little bit of a headache but its getting better…Liz, Kyle told me everything and I just wanted to say thank you and that I’m sorry for everything I’ve put you through in the past. I know that’s a little insignificant right now but…” Said Tess. She never thought that she would apologize to Liz, Tess always thought that Liz had no place with the group but after hearing about her origins and her connection to this Granolith had changed all that. Besides Liz had just saved her soul from imprisonment within her own body.
Just as Liz was about to respond and tell her that all was forgiven, it happened. Six of the remaining eight symbols appeared on the walls, this time four faded and the remaining two came together to form a new symbol.
“What just happened?” asked Kyle.
“That is something I need to discuss with Max before you guys, sorry but he’s the guardian of the other Granolith.” Stated Liz, she knew exactly what caused the symbols to appear but she needed Max and his Granolith to confirm what she had found. No-body was going to be happy about the fact that they were beginning to act like horny rabbits because to what the Granoliths were doing. At least it only lasted until the couples had actually crossed the line and a connection was formed between them.
“Where is Max anyway, I thought he would be here by now?” asked Kyle.
“Yeah, He has some errands to run for his parents. He said he would be here later, then after I have a little talk with him and hopefully be able to prevent him from blowing up at Isabel and Alex, we are going out to the Pod Chamber.”
“Okay what did I miss, why would he blow up at his sister?” Kyle said, looking back at an equally confused Tess.
“The…ehhh…symbols come together when a connection is formed between two people from the group…the ones over there were Michael and Maria, the new one was Alex and Isabel.” Liz was blushed profoundly. The meaning of connection was not lost on either of her friends when they saw her hesitation and bright red skin.
“Come on, let’s go upstairs and I’ll get you some coke.” Said Liz as she led the others out of the chamber. Kyle and Tess looked at each other, they had been feeling a growing heat between them since she had woken up and there were four symbols remaining on the walls. They both started to slightly blush, knowing that it was only a matter of time before they too caved. Tess was quite surprised that she didn’t find the idea of sex with a human to be repugnant; in fact she was looking forward to it, she just wished she knew what Liz was talking about when she said it had something to do with the Granoliths.
Alex’s Bedroom, Whitman Residence, 07:05
They hadn’t even slept for twenty minutes before Alex woke up again. He thought that he had dreamed the entire thing until he saw his love lying next to him on her front. Alex couldn’t resist as he pulled back the covers to reveal her naked back and gently he kissed her left shoulder, she smiled contentedly. He kissed her skin again, this time a little lower, and again and again, each time his lips connected with her skin she smiled and sighed. There was no doubt in his mind that she was just as awake as he was.
“Alex, what are you doing?” asked Isabel. She wasn’t complaining about what he doing, she loved it, in fact she never felt like this in her life.
Alex reached back down and kissed the centre of her back and bringing his head back up he said, “Loving you!” His hand then made its way under the duvet to the firm globes of her ass, as he gently stroked on each cheek Isabel sighed. That was when she rolled over.
“Alex, you don’t regret what happened between us. Do you?” Isabel asked with concern in her voice.
“No…it was a little more wild than I imagined our first time would be but, no I don’t regret it. Do you?” the calm and determination on his voice calmed her fears. She shook her head and pulled him in for another kiss.
Alex then pulled away sharply “Ohh no!” He never explained to a now frightened Isabel as he jumped up out of the bed and ran into the hallway. Isabel just watched his naked ass has he moved. Soon he returned from the hall carrying his jogging bottoms and her red panties in his hands.
“I don’t think it would be a good idea for my parents to come home and find these in the hall.” He said as he jumped back into bed with his girlfriend, Isabel just started to laugh her head off and was soon followed by Alex. Soon Alex had his hand on her hip and they were kissing again, Isabel’s breasts pressed against his torso.
“I’d better get home before my mom wonders where I’ve got to!” said Isabel as she backed away. Alex was disappointed but understood, he watched as Isabel slid from the warm bed and started to dress quickly, repairing any damage to her clothes. As Alex sat up in bed a now fully dressed Isabel came over to him and gave him a goodbye kiss.
“I’ll see you later my love.” She whispered in his ear before she left the room.
Alex got out of bed when he heard the front door close; it was going to take a miracle to get that grin off his face. He reached over and pulled on his joggers. That was when he noticed it; on his desk were Isabel’s panties. {No way would she forget those} he thought to himself as he approached them, picking them up and placing them in the pocket of the jeans he was going to wear today, his smile grew even larger at the idea that she had left them for him. He then decided to get on with the rest of the day; he showered, cleaned the house and ate breakfast. God knows when his parents were coming home but he was buzzing with energy and by the time he was done he felt he could go a few more rounds with his alien princess.
Michael’s Apartment, 0800am
They had been awake for hours and the entire time they were making love. Michael simply couldn’t get enough of the way she felt and Maria herself was addicted. They had just finished session no. 5 and neither of them were exhausted, each and every time they came together was like a fusion of their souls. Last night was a wild rut but this morning they were loving and caring, both full of energy and new what their lover would find pleasing. Something had connected between them last night; a spark had formed and had grown into a bolt of lightning that charged their bodies at the slightest contact.
Michael decided to do the impossible, he was going to leave the bed. Amazingly he made it out but he had a good incentive, he was going to make Maria breakfast in bed. Last night had formed a connection, he was sure of that but it had also awaked a slight romantic streak within him that he never knew he had. Nothing mattered to Michael more than Maria’s happiness.
30 minutes, 10 pancakes and another sex session later Maria decided that she had better get home. She had called last night and told her mother that she was staying with Liz and she had agreed to cover for her. There was no doubt that if her mother found out about tonight she would be pissed and Michael wouldn’t live to see another hour. Slowly she dressed; teasing Michael as she returned her bra and panties to there correct positions and pulled on the rest of her clothes. Michael was hard again in no time but he knew she had to leave now and as much as he wanted to take her again, he was not going to get on the wrong side of her mother.
Antarian Granolith Chamber, 14:00
Max had picked up Liz as promised and they made their way out to the chamber. The scene was identical to the other room; two symbols were on the walls flanked on either side by four faint symbols. Max’s control was still dormant but through a connection with Liz she had taught him what she knew about the Granoliths.
After a little experimentation and a lot of hit and misses, it was confirmed. Liz was correct in her discovery of what was happening with the group and the two alien machines. Never before had two Granoliths been active on the same planet and now the two of them were talking, sharing information and on some level, sharing their conscious aspects of the programming…the Granoliths were becoming one and as a result of the energy released, the emotions of Max, Liz and the others were heightened.
Max was almost ready to find Alex and beat the crap out of him when Liz explained what the symbols meant but the fact that neither Alex nor Isabel were entirely in control of their actions helped a little bit. Soon the preparations made by the two machines would be complete, it was only a matter time before Max and Liz & Kyle and Tess gave into their desires. At first Max found it odd that he and Liz, the guardians of the Granoliths, had not been the first to be affected but after a little investigation Liz found the answer…Family.
The group was made from two sub units – Human and Antarian. The bonding over the last year and a half had made them into a family and the energy had travelled to the couples, allowing the systems to merge and grow in power. However things were moving too slowly for the Granolith’s liking, so they communicated and decided to speed the binding up by increasing the hormone levels of the group and causing them to mate with their significant others. Soon now it will be complete and there will only be one Granolith, a power that Kivar could only hope to have control over.
Max and Liz were curious as well as to what the final result would be but they would have to wait. So they decided to go outside watch the clouds go by before they headed home to tell the others. Good thing this little mystery was now over, the Harvest of the Skins was about to happen – they had to decide what to do.
Max/Isabel Shared Bathroom, Evans Residence, 1900 the next day
Isabel: She was sitting on the edge of the bathtub, looking down at the item that was sitting on the toilet seat. She couldn’t believe she was this stupid, Max was going to freak and her parents were going to kill her. She called Max earlier and he was going to be here soon, she was not going to enjoy this.
“Iz, you here?” Max yelled as he entered her bedroom.
“In here Max” she yelled. Max opened the door and looked into his sister’s face, all he saw was fear and concern.
“Iz what’s up? Are you okay?” Isabel turned her head and looked down to the floor and then up to the toilet seat. Max followed her gaze and looked at the item…he was floored, he could not believe what he was seeing.
“Isabel…I…” he trailed off.
“I’m in big trouble Max!” she whispered.

Chapter 16
Isabel’s & Max’s Shared Bathroom, Evans Residence, Same Time
“Jeez Isabel, how could you…” Max trailed off.
“I know Max, it was stupid!” countered his sister
“Stupid doesn’t even cover it Iz. This is huge, if mom doesn’t kill you dad will! I know you’ve been having issues lately but this…”
“Max I really don’t need this now, some support and any ideas would be good call right now!” Isabel said as she stood up and started pacing back and forth.
Max nodded and looked back down to the item on the toilet seat “$800 credit card bill, what the hell could you spend $800 on?”
“Not hearing any ideas Max!” Isabel practically yelled. “When dad sees this…I am so screwed. The best I can hope for is being grounded and they way things are with Alex…I need him Max; I can’t spend 20 minutes before starting to think about him. Not being able to see him would kill me.”
“Yeah, I know…okay first things first. We edit the bill so when they see it its not as much. Then we try to raise $800 before they send another bill out…why did you spend that much anyway?” asked Max.
“It was after the Whitaker thing, I needed to blow of steam from something she…” Isabel stopped talking. She needed to work through what she was told before she told Max. However, when she looked into his eyes she could see that he knew something.
Max had hoped that he could have this conversation at a better time but he had seen the pain in her eyes and the only thing he could think of at this precise moment was to reassure her and make the pain go away.
“Isabel…I know about Vilandra.” Isabel shot her head up and tried to turn away, she couldn’t face him. “Is, look at me. Is I don’t care what happened back then, you are not her. Besides we don’t know what any of us where like on Antar, for all we know Zan gave her a reason to do whatever she did or she was mind warped or something…we don’t know. What I do know is that you are my sister and that I love you. Also that you would never do anything to intentionally betray me and I would never do anything against you!” Max placed his hands on her shoulders and pulled her into a hug.
Isabel felt like a ton of bricks had just been lifted from her, she still had some issues to work out – especially that fear that what happened once could happen again but right now she knew that she wouldn’t loose her brother. Max tilted her head up and wiped a tear from her eye and said, “Now lets get this bill taken care of.”
With that Max waved his hand over the bill changing the $800 statement to $80. Max had some money saved from working at the Museum and Isabel had a little saved from gifts and other items over the years, borrowing a little from the others of the group wouldn’t be a problem. All they had to do was keep another secret; a very little secret compared to the one they had kept all their lives.
Bathroom, Valenti Residence, 2030
Jim had let Tess out of her chores. He had decided that with everything she had been through in the last couple of weeks while under the control of the Ganderial she could do with some time off. Right now she was lying in the bathtub, surrounded by bubbles and just loving the relaxing sensations of the bath salts and oils she borrowed from Maria.
She had been going over in her head what Max and Liz had told her and the others about what was happening with the Granoliths and its effect on the group. She had felt the desire building in her own body and was pretty sure that Kyle was feeling it as well…the bulges in his trousers had become more frequent, especially when she was around. That was something that had stoked her own fires – she was causing it and she knew that sooner or later that Kyle was going to be back in his own bed and she would be right beside him, she couldn’t wait. Rumours had been flying and the other girls at school talked about how good Kyle was, much of what she heard made her jealous as hell but she had secretly hoped that she would find out for herself.
That was when the door swung open and Kyle ran in, unzipping his fly as he went. He was completely unaware of her presence until…
“Uhhh Kyle” said Tess
Kyle turned his head around and saw the glowing angel lying in the bath. The vision nearly floored him as he shook his head and he quickly zipped himself back up. He so wanted to join her in the warm waters but he still had some self-control left. He rationalised his decision by telling himself that Tess was still recovering and that she needed space. Little did he know that the only reasons Tess was recovering so quickly was that Kyle was around, helping her through it and that she needed to be on top form for when Kivar’s forces finally come.
“Oh jeez, sorry Tess I didn’t know you were in here. I’ll just…I’ll see you later.” With that he ran out of the door, trying to cover the newly forming erection that Tess had given him.
Tess had seen that his face had turned bright red and that he was covering his groin with his hand. His face looked absolutely petrified as he ran and Tess was concerned, she had never seen him like this so she decided that bath time was over. She got out, dried herself and pulled on her bathrobe. She found Kyle sitting on the sofa, flicking through television channels. Eventually he settled on a nature programme, hoping that almost being put to sleep would help subside his burning desire that was killing him to turn away from.
As he watched, Tess sat down next to him and pulled her legs up on to the seat. She decided to wait and see how he would react but he just sat there staring at the TV. While he was apparently unaffected, she was not. Unconsciously she started rubbing her hand across a piece of naked leg that her robe exposed. Kyle himself was trying not to pay her any attention but that was difficult at the best of times, as he hand started to move he couldn’t sit still any longer. He turned to face her and gazed longingly into her eyes.
“Tess…Christ…I usually don’t have any trouble with this. I just wanted to say…” Kyle never had a chance to finish; Tess had grabbed his face and pulled him into a very heated kiss. Slowly Kyle lowered her on to her back and he leaned on top of her. Their kiss was unending, passionate and loving. They had been waiting for this for a while now, Kyle never tried to hide his attraction to Tess and they had thrown sexual comments at each other since she had moved in. Now the games were over, they belonged to each other and were giving in to the combination of their own lust and what the Granolith was doing to them.
Tess bent her knee and started to rub her leg along Kyle’s, she was totally lost in the passion. This was against everything that Nasedo had taught her, humans were primitive scum that deserved to be stepped on…and for a while she believed that but right now both her human and Antarian natures were calling out with one voice that this was right. This had never happened before, she had always suppressed her human side but the pleasure that came with what was happening was impossible to ignore and being with Kyle had never felt so right. Thinking about all the times she tried to be with Max she realised that there was something missing from that connection but here everything was where it was supposed to be.
Tentatively, Kyle reached his hand down and slowly stroked the leg that was rubbing against his. The feel of her flesh was incredible but Kyle wasn’t going to let this happen. Not here. To their disappointment he pulled away, Kyle could see the look in her face but he reached down and lifted her into his arms. He carried her through to her bedroom and put her down on the bed, a grin spread across his face as he pulled off his t-shirt. At the same moment, Tess slid her hands down her body and undid the tie on her robe.
Although Kyle never lost his hard-on from when he walked in on her in the bath, the sight of her naked and prepared for him only served to strengthen the ridge flesh between his legs. Tess never missed a beat; she could see the strain on his jeans and decided to help. Reaching her hand out, Kyle was surprised as the button and zipper on his trouser suddenly became undone. When Kyle was naked he moved back on top of his love. He ran his hands and paused on her breasts and gently squeezed.
“Tess are you sure about this?” he asked
“Make love to me Kyle, I want you more than anything right now!” she responded, her voice filled with passion and love.
Kyle was convinced, he bent his head back down and pulled her into a kiss, his tongue left his mouth and entered hers. His left hand then made its way down across her stomach and finally to her moist centre. She was so wet for him and when he made contact her eyes became wide open. Slowly he massaged her, teasing her mercilessly as she started to grind her hips against his hands.
“Help me Kyle, please…I want to cum so badly, make me cum!” she pleaded. Her own hand reached down and held Kyle’s where it was but he had other ideas. He removed his own hand and held Tess’s against her core. Forcing her hand to move with his own, he watched her face as she rubbed her clit, bring about her orgasm. Her body thrashed about wildly, revelling in the pleasure her own hands hand brought her at Kyle’s direction. It was nowhere near enough; she wrapped her arms and legs around his body.
“Take me Kyle…Make me yours!” she begged of him, her sultry tone spoke to his soul and his soul responded as well as his body. He adjusted his hips and gently placed the tip of his cock at her mound. Tess refused to wait any longer for what her body had been calling out for since she emerged from her Ganderial torment and with that she grabbed hold of his penis, enticing a moan from Kyle and pulled him into her. She watched as he disappeared between her legs.
Kyle pushed in until he reached an obstruction, looking into her eyes told him everything he needed – she was ready. Pulling back out and thrusting in with more force he tore past her virginity and claimed her as his. The pleasure was incredible, her velvety soft wall clamped down on his erection as he pumped inside of her. At first he had been moving slowly, giving her body time to adapt but now he was thrusting in and out of her at an impossible pace but still in time with her own movements.
“Ah…Ah…Ahhhhh!” moaned Tess as Kyle brought her ever closer to her second orgasm of the day. Kyle grabbed on to her legs and swung them up over his shoulders. His thrusting increased, driving deeper and deeper into her as he stroked his hands along her calves and down her thighs. Eventually Kyle gave up, his self-restraint exhausted and stamina gone…he needed to cum now!
“Tess, I’m gonna come, please let…me…come…inside…of you!” The request was made with every intention of Kyle using every ounce of strength he had to hold back and receive permission from the sex kitten he had pinned to their bed.
“Do it…Do it Kyle. Let it go!” she moaned. That was all either of them needed and they came together, Kyle’s seed spurting deep within her and Tess’s juices pouring all over his cock.
Both were sated and Kyle let go of her legs, which fell to either side of he body and hung limply. Kyle was still inside her, neither of them wanting to feel the physical connection end. Every so often Tess’s body would still spasm, causing a small thrust of his semi-hard cock. Eventually he had to pull out and nestled beside her weakened body. The two soon fell into a blissful sleep and for the first time in her life Tess was at peace with her self, no longer resenting the human side of her body…she was home as long as she was with him.
Earth Granolith Chamber, 22:00
Liz: She and Max had come down to the chamber to get some private studying done, her parent knew nothing about this place so the constant interruptions her mother made every ten minutes no longer occurred. However the studying didn’t last long, the heat in the room appeared to double in intensity and with it so did their own desires. The occasional touching of hands as they reached for papers and the soul piercing stares had erupted into passionate kisses.
“Max, please…I need you now. I can’t wait anymore!” she moaned as he kissed down her neck.
Max: He knew how she was feeling; all the resisting was about to blow up. That was something he couldn’t understand…why the hell were they resisting. Their friends sure weren’t, thirty minutes ago the chamber had gone through a familiar process and a third symbol joined the previous two. It was obvious what had happened; Kyle and Tess had crossed the line and now it was there turn.
“I know my love…I gone to make love to you until you can stand!” his voice was full of sincerity and determination.
Max reached down to the hem of her t-shirt, pulled it off and used is powers to remove her bra while stimulating her breasts…not that they needed it. He gazed into her love filled eyes for a few moments before bending his head down to take one of her nipples into his mouth. The pleasure was too much for Liz; she placed her hand on his head, holding him in place and fell backward onto the warm floor. Liz gasped as Max removed his hot mouth and moved it to the other soft peak that was begging for some attention.
Liz began to move her hands down his sculpted chest, unbuttoning his shirt as she went. Max paused as he pulled his shirt off but soon returned to Liz’s inviting mouth. The feel of her breast pressed against his chest was unbelievable, he had dreamed about this for years and now she was his. As the kiss grew in passion Liz ran her hands along his arms and eventually he took her hands in his, their fingers intertwined. As their arms stretched out it happened…
Their hands touched the base of the Granolith and caused the device to pull them both inside. For a second they never new anything had happened but as they opened their eyes they could see where they were and that they were both naked, their remaining clothes gone from their bodies. They were too far-gone to care. Despite floating in mid-air they moved together, pressing their bodies against each other as Liz wrapped her legs around his waist.
Max thrust up into her, her eyes growing wider as the sensations of Max within her bringing her closer and closer to the edge. Max ran his hands along her legs and reached out to grab her ass, enticing a moan in the process.
“God Max, this feels so right!” she moaned as he began to move inside her, teasing the flesh of her thighs with his fingertips. Liz then started to move her hips back and forth, sliding effortlessly up and down on his cock. Moving faster and harder with each passing second Max returned his mouth to her left nipple, biting down on it hard…he wanted her to come, he needed her to come. Her pleasure was the one thing on his mind. Each thrust of his hips forced even more of himself deeper into her, Liz tight wall clenching down on him, claiming the other as their mate – their soul mate.
Max could feel a tightening in his balls and with one more thrust they both climaxed. However the Granolith was not finished with them. The final symbols reappeared on the wall and formed a new glyph, at that moment bolts of energy shot forth from them, impacting on all the others and finally on the Granolith. The merging had begun.
The chamber started to disassemble itself; the Granolith changed into energy and silently travelled underground to meet its counterpart in the Antarian chamber. Max and Liz were still inside and like the Granolith the two had changed into formless essences of what they are. The feeling was incredible for the two of them as they formed one being as their souls mated.
Soon the Granolith reached its destination and merged with the waiting ball of energy. Slowly it took shape and formed an upside down black pyramid, two sides, on opposite sides, had a handprint. Both Max and Liz would now control the new Granolith; it had become a symbol of what they were together – all powerful…omnipotent. After a minute the two new lovers were expelled from the device and lay naked on the floor in each other’s arms, Liz sitting on top of Max, gently rocking back and forth on him, bringing them both to another orgasm.
They were like this for twenty minutes before getting dressed and heading home…that is after calling Maria for a lift. That was something Max knew he was going to regret, he knew there would be a million questions and on top of that a knowing smirk that was going to turn him bright red.

Isabel’s & Max’s Shared Bathroom, Evans Residence, Same Time
“Jeez Isabel, how could you…” Max trailed off.
“I know Max, it was stupid!” countered his sister
“Stupid doesn’t even cover it Iz. This is huge, if mom doesn’t kill you dad will! I know you’ve been having issues lately but this…”
“Max I really don’t need this now, some support and any ideas would be good call right now!” Isabel said as she stood up and started pacing back and forth.

Max had hoped that he could have this conversation at a better time but he had seen the pain in her eyes and the only thing he could think of at this precise moment was to reassure her and make the pain go away.
“Isabel…I know about Vilandra.” Isabel shot her head up and tried to turn away, she couldn’t face him. “Is, look at me. Is I don’t care what happened back then, you are not her. Besides we don’t know what any of us where like on Antar, for all we know Zan gave her a reason to do whatever she did or she was mind warped or something…we don’t know. What I do know is that you are my sister and that I love you. Also that you would never do anything to intentionally betray me and I would never do anything against you!” Max placed his hands on her shoulders and pulled her into a hug.
Isabel felt like a ton of bricks had just been lifted from her, she still had some issues to work out – especially that fear that what happened once could happen again but right now she knew that she wouldn’t loose her brother. Max tilted her head up and wiped a tear from her eye and said, “Now lets get this bill taken care of.”
With that Max waved his hand over the bill changing the $800 statement to $80. Max had some money saved from working at the Museum and Isabel had a little saved from gifts and other items over the years, borrowing a little from the others of the group wouldn’t be a problem. All they had to do was keep another secret; a very little secret compared to the one they had kept all their lives.
Bathroom, Valenti Residence, 2030
Jim had let Tess out of her chores. He had decided that with everything she had been through in the last couple of weeks while under the control of the Ganderial she could do with some time off. Right now she was lying in the bathtub, surrounded by bubbles and just loving the relaxing sensations of the bath salts and oils she borrowed from Maria.
She had been going over in her head what Max and Liz had told her and the others about what was happening with the Granoliths and its effect on the group. She had felt the desire building in her own body and was pretty sure that Kyle was feeling it as well…the bulges in his trousers had become more frequent, especially when she was around. That was something that had stoked her own fires – she was causing it and she knew that sooner or later that Kyle was going to be back in his own bed and she would be right beside him, she couldn’t wait. Rumours had been flying and the other girls at school talked about how good Kyle was, much of what she heard made her jealous as hell but she had secretly hoped that she would find out for herself.
That was when the door swung open and Kyle ran in, unzipping his fly as he went. He was completely unaware of her presence until…
“Uhhh Kyle” said Tess
Kyle turned his head around and saw the glowing angel lying in the bath. The vision nearly floored him as he shook his head and he quickly zipped himself back up. He so wanted to join her in the warm waters but he still had some self-control left. He rationalised his decision by telling himself that Tess was still recovering and that she needed space. Little did he know that the only reasons Tess was recovering so quickly was that Kyle was around, helping her through it and that she needed to be on top form for when Kivar’s forces finally come.
“Oh jeez, sorry Tess I didn’t know you were in here. I’ll just…I’ll see you later.” With that he ran out of the door, trying to cover the newly forming erection that Tess had given him.
Tess had seen that his face had turned bright red and that he was covering his groin with his hand. His face looked absolutely petrified as he ran and Tess was concerned, she had never seen him like this so she decided that bath time was over. She got out, dried herself and pulled on her bathrobe. She found Kyle sitting on the sofa, flicking through television channels. Eventually he settled on a nature programme, hoping that almost being put to sleep would help subside his burning desire that was killing him to turn away from.
As he watched, Tess sat down next to him and pulled her legs up on to the seat. She decided to wait and see how he would react but he just sat there staring at the TV. While he was apparently unaffected, she was not. Unconsciously she started rubbing her hand across a piece of naked leg that her robe exposed. Kyle himself was trying not to pay her any attention but that was difficult at the best of times, as he hand started to move he couldn’t sit still any longer. He turned to face her and gazed longingly into her eyes.
“Tess…Christ…I usually don’t have any trouble with this. I just wanted to say…” Kyle never had a chance to finish; Tess had grabbed his face and pulled him into a very heated kiss. Slowly Kyle lowered her on to her back and he leaned on top of her. Their kiss was unending, passionate and loving. They had been waiting for this for a while now, Kyle never tried to hide his attraction to Tess and they had thrown sexual comments at each other since she had moved in. Now the games were over, they belonged to each other and were giving in to the combination of their own lust and what the Granolith was doing to them.
Tess bent her knee and started to rub her leg along Kyle’s, she was totally lost in the passion. This was against everything that Nasedo had taught her, humans were primitive scum that deserved to be stepped on…and for a while she believed that but right now both her human and Antarian natures were calling out with one voice that this was right. This had never happened before, she had always suppressed her human side but the pleasure that came with what was happening was impossible to ignore and being with Kyle had never felt so right. Thinking about all the times she tried to be with Max she realised that there was something missing from that connection but here everything was where it was supposed to be.
Tentatively, Kyle reached his hand down and slowly stroked the leg that was rubbing against his. The feel of her flesh was incredible but Kyle wasn’t going to let this happen. Not here. To their disappointment he pulled away, Kyle could see the look in her face but he reached down and lifted her into his arms. He carried her through to her bedroom and put her down on the bed, a grin spread across his face as he pulled off his t-shirt. At the same moment, Tess slid her hands down her body and undid the tie on her robe.
Although Kyle never lost his hard-on from when he walked in on her in the bath, the sight of her naked and prepared for him only served to strengthen the ridge flesh between his legs. Tess never missed a beat; she could see the strain on his jeans and decided to help. Reaching her hand out, Kyle was surprised as the button and zipper on his trouser suddenly became undone. When Kyle was naked he moved back on top of his love. He ran his hands and paused on her breasts and gently squeezed.
“Tess are you sure about this?” he asked
“Make love to me Kyle, I want you more than anything right now!” she responded, her voice filled with passion and love.
Kyle was convinced, he bent his head back down and pulled her into a kiss, his tongue left his mouth and entered hers. His left hand then made its way down across her stomach and finally to her moist centre. She was so wet for him and when he made contact her eyes became wide open. Slowly he massaged her, teasing her mercilessly as she started to grind her hips against his hands.
“Help me Kyle, please…I want to cum so badly, make me cum!” she pleaded. Her own hand reached down and held Kyle’s where it was but he had other ideas. He removed his own hand and held Tess’s against her core. Forcing her hand to move with his own, he watched her face as she rubbed her clit, bring about her orgasm. Her body thrashed about wildly, revelling in the pleasure her own hands hand brought her at Kyle’s direction. It was nowhere near enough; she wrapped her arms and legs around his body.
“Take me Kyle…Make me yours!” she begged of him, her sultry tone spoke to his soul and his soul responded as well as his body. He adjusted his hips and gently placed the tip of his cock at her mound. Tess refused to wait any longer for what her body had been calling out for since she emerged from her Ganderial torment and with that she grabbed hold of his penis, enticing a moan from Kyle and pulled him into her. She watched as he disappeared between her legs.
Kyle pushed in until he reached an obstruction, looking into her eyes told him everything he needed – she was ready. Pulling back out and thrusting in with more force he tore past her virginity and claimed her as his. The pleasure was incredible, her velvety soft wall clamped down on his erection as he pumped inside of her. At first he had been moving slowly, giving her body time to adapt but now he was thrusting in and out of her at an impossible pace but still in time with her own movements.
“Ah…Ah…Ahhhhh!” moaned Tess as Kyle brought her ever closer to her second orgasm of the day. Kyle grabbed on to her legs and swung them up over his shoulders. His thrusting increased, driving deeper and deeper into her as he stroked his hands along her calves and down her thighs. Eventually Kyle gave up, his self-restraint exhausted and stamina gone…he needed to cum now!
“Tess, I’m gonna come, please let…me…come…inside…of you!” The request was made with every intention of Kyle using every ounce of strength he had to hold back and receive permission from the sex kitten he had pinned to their bed.
“Do it…Do it Kyle. Let it go!” she moaned. That was all either of them needed and they came together, Kyle’s seed spurting deep within her and Tess’s juices pouring all over his cock.
Both were sated and Kyle let go of her legs, which fell to either side of he body and hung limply. Kyle was still inside her, neither of them wanting to feel the physical connection end. Every so often Tess’s body would still spasm, causing a small thrust of his semi-hard cock. Eventually he had to pull out and nestled beside her weakened body. The two soon fell into a blissful sleep and for the first time in her life Tess was at peace with her self, no longer resenting the human side of her body…she was home as long as she was with him.
Earth Granolith Chamber, 22:00
Liz: She and Max had come down to the chamber to get some private studying done, her parent knew nothing about this place so the constant interruptions her mother made every ten minutes no longer occurred. However the studying didn’t last long, the heat in the room appeared to double in intensity and with it so did their own desires. The occasional touching of hands as they reached for papers and the soul piercing stares had erupted into passionate kisses.
“Max, please…I need you now. I can’t wait anymore!” she moaned as he kissed down her neck.
Max: He knew how she was feeling; all the resisting was about to blow up. That was something he couldn’t understand…why the hell were they resisting. Their friends sure weren’t, thirty minutes ago the chamber had gone through a familiar process and a third symbol joined the previous two. It was obvious what had happened; Kyle and Tess had crossed the line and now it was there turn.
“I know my love…I gone to make love to you until you can stand!” his voice was full of sincerity and determination.
Max reached down to the hem of her t-shirt, pulled it off and used is powers to remove her bra while stimulating her breasts…not that they needed it. He gazed into her love filled eyes for a few moments before bending his head down to take one of her nipples into his mouth. The pleasure was too much for Liz; she placed her hand on his head, holding him in place and fell backward onto the warm floor. Liz gasped as Max removed his hot mouth and moved it to the other soft peak that was begging for some attention.
Liz began to move her hands down his sculpted chest, unbuttoning his shirt as she went. Max paused as he pulled his shirt off but soon returned to Liz’s inviting mouth. The feel of her breast pressed against his chest was unbelievable, he had dreamed about this for years and now she was his. As the kiss grew in passion Liz ran her hands along his arms and eventually he took her hands in his, their fingers intertwined. As their arms stretched out it happened…
Their hands touched the base of the Granolith and caused the device to pull them both inside. For a second they never new anything had happened but as they opened their eyes they could see where they were and that they were both naked, their remaining clothes gone from their bodies. They were too far-gone to care. Despite floating in mid-air they moved together, pressing their bodies against each other as Liz wrapped her legs around his waist.
Max thrust up into her, her eyes growing wider as the sensations of Max within her bringing her closer and closer to the edge. Max ran his hands along her legs and reached out to grab her ass, enticing a moan in the process.
“God Max, this feels so right!” she moaned as he began to move inside her, teasing the flesh of her thighs with his fingertips. Liz then started to move her hips back and forth, sliding effortlessly up and down on his cock. Moving faster and harder with each passing second Max returned his mouth to her left nipple, biting down on it hard…he wanted her to come, he needed her to come. Her pleasure was the one thing on his mind. Each thrust of his hips forced even more of himself deeper into her, Liz tight wall clenching down on him, claiming the other as their mate – their soul mate.
Max could feel a tightening in his balls and with one more thrust they both climaxed. However the Granolith was not finished with them. The final symbols reappeared on the wall and formed a new glyph, at that moment bolts of energy shot forth from them, impacting on all the others and finally on the Granolith. The merging had begun.
The chamber started to disassemble itself; the Granolith changed into energy and silently travelled underground to meet its counterpart in the Antarian chamber. Max and Liz were still inside and like the Granolith the two had changed into formless essences of what they are. The feeling was incredible for the two of them as they formed one being as their souls mated.
Soon the Granolith reached its destination and merged with the waiting ball of energy. Slowly it took shape and formed an upside down black pyramid, two sides, on opposite sides, had a handprint. Both Max and Liz would now control the new Granolith; it had become a symbol of what they were together – all powerful…omnipotent. After a minute the two new lovers were expelled from the device and lay naked on the floor in each other’s arms, Liz sitting on top of Max, gently rocking back and forth on him, bringing them both to another orgasm.
They were like this for twenty minutes before getting dressed and heading home…that is after calling Maria for a lift. That was something Max knew he was going to regret, he knew there would be a million questions and on top of that a knowing smirk that was going to turn him bright red.
To Be Continued…
Chapter 17
285 South, Heading to Roswell, Early Monday Morning
Grant: He had been called out to another site he was working on in Colorado and now after 3 weeks away he was on his way back to Roswell. While he did enjoy Roswell and the work he did, his thought dwelled on his main reason…Isabel. {God, I want to fuck her} he thought to himself. Every time he was in her presence Grant mentally undressed her and had the image of throwing her against the wall and fucking her until she was screaming his name over and over, All the while her brother and friends watching them, especially that little geek Alex.
That did it; those thought always gave him a hard-on. He pulled over to a side road, unzipped his pants and started to relieve himself of his built up tension. He quickly reached into his glove compartment and pulled out a pair of silk panties he stole from the Isabel’s drawer the last time he was in her house. He loved the games he played, pretending to be the kind and caring intellect to attract high school seniors, then when the time was right he would seduce them right into his bed and treat them like the whores they are. Small towns were great for this; after his work was completed he would probably never set foot there again and leave his girls for good.
As he pumped his dick up and down he slowly began to imagine Isabel on all fours while he slammed his cock into her arse while her friend’s Tess and Maria stuck their tongues down Isabel’s throat one after the other before moving under her to lick her tits. God he loved blondes and loved being part of group sex, especially with multiple women, but something about those three hardened his dick. His fist was moving up and down at light speed, loving the feel of the silk on his flesh. After a few minutes of his fantasy he came, spurting his seed all over his steering wheel and dashboard. He cleaned everything up with a cloth he kept under his seat for just such a situation, a situation that was all too familiar for his road trips, and soon he was back on the road to his soon-to-be conquest with a smirk on his face – he just wished he could get rid of these irritating blackouts.
Liz’s Balcony, Parker Residence, 07:00 Monday Morning
Isabel: She needed to talk to Liz before school and so came over as early as she could. Ever since that morning with Alex she had been growing more and more concerned, that was completely out of character for her and Alex. She was afraid that the Granoliths influence would continue to affect her…she didn’t want that. If she was going to be with Alex she wanted it to be because they loved each other and not under the control of alien technology and she was pretty sure Alex felt the same way.
As Isabel approached her window, she knocked on the glass and waited for a response. Liz opened her window and was surprised to see her.
“Isabel…what are you doing here?” she asked as she buttoned up her blue blouse.
“I…eh…wanted to talk to you about the Granolith and the effect it’s having on us.”
Liz was immediately concerned by the tone in her friends voice and the expression on her face so she invited her inside while she prepared for school. Over twenty minutes Liz moved around while she listened as Isabel confessed her fears to her. She couldn’t believe what she was hearing…did Isabel actually think that what she felt wasn’t real? She had to set this right!
“Isabel, what your feeling, your love for Alex, is real…nothing is forcing you to love Alex.” Liz tried to reassure her lovers’ sister.
“But what we did Liz, I’ve never behaved like that in my life and I’m pretty sure Alex hasn’t either. Also we’ve seen each other after…it and nothing felt the same.” She was petrified about being an instrument…a tool so that the Granoliths could merge.
“Okay what I’m going to tell you doesn’t leave this room until I speak to Max about it.” Liz waited for Isabel’s response and once she nodded her head Liz continued.
“Right, what you are feeling for Alex is completely genuine, the Granolith wouldn’t have caused a mating between the two of you unless you loved each other…completely and truly. This is going to be hard to explain! Okay the Granolith forced us all to have sex but it was only with people who we wanted to be with in our hearts…if you didn’t love Alex then it wouldn’t have happened.
The Granolith only opened your eyes and your heart to that love while removing some of your inhibitions. Everything you two shared was lust but it was born out of love – it was the same for all of us. It only wants us to be happy.” Liz explained but it was that last comment that confused Iz.
“What do you mean “IT wants us to be happy”, since when does a machine want?” she asked. Most of what Liz told her took a ton off – she really did love Alex and he loved her.
“We protect the Granolith.” Liz continued “and as much as we protect it, it protects us. It wants us to be happy so that we will use it properly, you see part of its program is an artificial intelligence system designed to guide its users! Effectively it saw what we wanted and helped us take it…literally.”
Both teens blushed at that comment, Liz couldn’t believe she actually said it but could see the relaxation form in Isabel’s face.
“The reason why you, Alex and the rest of a us feel differently is because the Granolith isn’t pushing us anymore. From now on what we do will be because we want it to happen. So…why don’t we go to school and you can talk to Alex and get over any couple issues you guys have.”
Isabel nodded, she wanted to wait for Liz to get ready but she wanted to see her boyfriend a hell of a lot more and so she left the way she came in, telling Liz that she would see her later.
Isabel stepped out of the side alley and headed of to school but soon a pair of hands came up over her eyes. Just was she was about to blast the unwanted invasion of her space she heard “Guess who?” Quickly she turned around and saw local geologist and newest sex symbol of Roswell – Grant Sorenson!
“Hey Grant, what are you doing back in town? I thought you finished your work?” she said.
“What can’t a guy come back to visit his favourite blonde, besides I have some more tests to run out in the woods. So…now that I’m back in town…I was wondering if you would like to go out sometime?” He spoke to her in a calm and sexy voice that he new made girls feel light headed. He was going to bag this one that was for sure, Grant could almost smell her attraction to him.
“Oh, I cant. Grant I’m really sorry but I’ve started to see someone…its pretty serious and I don’t want anyone else at the moment.” {Why the hell did I say “at the moment”} she asked herself {I love Alex and just because of some physical attraction I’m not going to dump him}.
“Oh well, I’m sorry to hear that…I am happy for you Isabel, I hope it works out for you!” He couldn’t be more furious, who ever this guy was he was going to die. How dare he touch Isabel before he had a chance to taste her…but he would still have her no matter what! Right now he just needed to play the game. He decided to end this little session so he reached down to kiss her cheek, said he would she her later and goodbye.
Meanwhile, across the street Alex was walking to school and hoped that he would run unto Isabel. Unfortunately it was at the point of the kiss was when Alex saw them. It may have been only a peck on the check but how dare this Grant come to town as kiss his girl. He was filled with such rage, jealousy and possessiveness that he was scared he might do something wrong so he turned and left.
Back on the street Isabel watched as Grant got back into his car and then suddenly felt a huge wave of anger and jealousy wash over her. Turning her head she instinctively knew the direction it was coming from, there she saw Alex turning away from her and running down an alley. Isabel followed as fast as she could but in turning into the same alley Alex was nowhere to be found. All Isabel could do was to make her way to school. {I’ll talk to him later} she thought to herself.
Girl’s Locker Room, West Roswell High, 20 minutes before class starts
Kyle had been teasing Tess all the way to school, running his hands over her legs, nibbling on her ears and giving her long passionate kisses that left her hot. By the time they got in the doors Tess was desperate for some serious attention and pulled Kyle in the locker room. She sealed the door with her powers and pushed him into a shower stall where she unzipped his trousers and pulled out his cock. Within seconds she was kneeling before him.
Taking his erect penis into her mouth, Tess slowly began to suck him while running her tongue over his length. Kyle moaned in pure bliss as her fulsome lips embraced his cock. He slowly reached out his hand and cradled the back of her head as she caressed him slowly with her tongue. Kyle felt incredible; this was the most amazing blowjob he ever had. It felt like Tess knew exactly what to do to please him, turning Kyle’s knees into jelly and causing his toes to curl up.
“Oh yes,” he sighed as Tess ran her lips up his shaft and around his glands. Next she trailed back down to the base of his penis, lightly running her teeth down his length. The blissful sensations had him raised up onto his toes.
As Tess concentrated on rhythmically swallowing Kyle's ample length and soon she could feel the telltale signs of his approaching orgasm. Already she could feel his cock swelling in her mouth, his semen surging in his balls.
“Ughhhh, Tess…God…I’m gonna cum!” Tess latched on to his cock and wouldn’t let Kyle go as he pumped his seed into her mouth, which she eagerly swallowed. Slowly Kyle’s breathing went back to normal as his orgasm subsided but Tess held her position, kissing and licking him as he calmed down.
“So how was that?” Tess asked Kyle as she stood back on her feet. Kyle grabbed hold of her and pulled her into a hug, all she could do was hug him back, eyes closed and a wide smile on her face. As Kyle pulled away from her he changed their positions so that she was now against that wall. Tess bit her lower lip in anticipation as he slid down her body, stoking her naked legs as he knelt before her. Looking up into Tess’s eyes he reached up under her skirt and hooked his finger around the waist of her panties. Slowly he pulled them down, exposing her moist opening to him.
Kyle moved his face closer to the apex of her thighs while moving her legs apart. Tess threw her head back as Kyle made contact with her flesh; her left leg involuntary moved up and rested on his shoulder. Her own arms rested on the low walls of the cubical, helping to keep her balance as Kyle ate her.
“Eat me Kyle, Please…” she trailed of as her lover stroked his tongue over her slit again and again. Her hips started to buckle against his mouth; she was desperate for more contact, desperate to climax into his mouth. Soon Kyle’s tongue found its goal; slowly he circled her clit and plunged his tongue into her pussy with short, hard stabs bringing her ever closer to the edge.
Kyle returned his tongue to the knob of pleasure within her soft folds while stick two finger up into her. Thrusting in and out, Tess moaned and shook her head from side to side, holding her hand to his head she pulled him in closer. Her other hand moved to his fingers, pulling them out and then moved it to join her other hand.
“Oh ffuuuuuck, Kyle. I…eat me…I’m coming…I’m commmiiinggg!!” Kyle covered her core with his mouth and drank in all of her juices as they poured forth from her. As Kyle released her leg, she slid down the wall, her face flushed and covered with sweat. She pulled him toward her and hugged Kyle. Just when they were about to kiss the bell rang out through the hallways of Roswell High. They jumped back and laughed, Kyle returned Tess’s underwear to her and they straightened themselves up before returning to the day, Tess mind-warping the people in the immediate area so that no-one saw Kyle leaving the Girls locker room.
Whitman Residence, Immediately Following
Alex never went to school; he turned around and went straight home. He still couldn’t believe what he had seen on the street, Grant kissing Isabel, the image made him feel sick. Even if it was just on the cheek what right did that…geologist have – he couldn’t deal with loosing Isabel to him, not after last time. There was also something about Grant that made him shiver and afraid for Isabel.
Isabel herself was moving closer to his house with each beat of her heart, after the alley she began to worry about him and was moving on pure instinct to find her beloved mate. Now that she realized that he was heading home her pace increased until she was running to his house.
She didn’t even stop to knock, opening the door she moved like a cat to his bedroom where she found Alex grabbing on to the back of his deck chair. She could sense the pain coming off of him and somehow knew that she was involved in causing it…all she could think of was to make that pain go away.
“Alex…are you okay?” she asked in a whisper; quiet but loud enough to get his attention.
Alex was surprised and quickly turned around. “Isabel? What are you doing here?”
“I saw you earlier and I got worried when you ran off. So are you okay?” she asked again
“No, no I’m not. I saw that kiss between you and Grant. I saw…hell I don’t know what I saw but you seemed to like it. What’s going on Isabel, I thought we had something!”
Isabel couldn’t believe he was thinking this, but she found it strangely comforting. “Alex, nothings going on between me and Grant. He showed up, asked me out and I told him that I was in a serious relationship. He said that he hoped that it will work out and then kissed me goodbye…that was it! You have nothing to worry about...do you believe me?” He tone was as comforting and reassuring as she could make it.
“Of course I believe you, but…I…god, I’ve no idea what happened. I just felt jealous and you looked like you enjoyed being with him. I just freaked, I guess this is still new, I’m still adjusting!” He said, slightly confused by his feelings.
“Alex, I’m not going to lie to you…I do find him attractive but that’s all. Listen, I talked to Liz earlier…she said that if we didn’t want to be with each other or had problems with our feelings then the Granolith wouldn’t have…influenced us into making love. What we have, what we feel for each other is the real thing Alex. We love each other completely and I never want to loose that. I will never jeopardise that just because of a little attraction…not when I love and have you!”
Isabel’s words penetrated his very soul. He already knew everything she had just said, he just needed to hear it…well he could do without knowing that she was attracted to Grant but then she was part human. Isabel could see that she had gotten through to him; she could sense it as well as he lifted his hand to her cheek and pulled her into a loving kiss.
“I love you too!” he said as he backed off a little but still held her close.
That was when Isabel realised that she was a little sweaty from her run to the house and she didn’t want to get to school looking like this.
“Alex, can I use your shower for a minute? I just want to freshen up before we go to school.” Alex nodded and she made her way to the bathroom. It was after a few minutes that he realised that Isabel was naked, in his house with warm water cascading over her firm, supple body. He was hard in an instant and couldn’t resist the temptation to join her.
Quickly he undressed and entered the bathroom, seeing her standing in the tub with her back facing him took his breath away. He stood and watched her for a moment, watching as he hands lathered soap over her body, washing the sweat away. He moved as quietly as he could and upon entering the tub he started to kiss her shoulders. Isabel didn’t turn around, she brought her hands together and held them to her chest, smiling as Alex moved from one shoulder to the other while moving her soaked hair round to her front.
As Alex’s hands moved to hold her hips Isabel turned round to face him and cupping his face she pulled him into a passionate kiss, a kiss that was fed even more heat by the hot waters that poured over them. Alex couldn’t wait anymore; slowly he turned Isabel away from him again while guiding her arms up to the wall so that she could support herself. Bending her down slightly allowed Alex to gain access to what he desired and while he teased Isabel’s breast with his let hand, he used his right to guide himself into her waiting heat.
Once he was fully sheathed within her velvet folds, Alex pulled out to his tip and then slowly pushed back in. He repeated this time and time again, causing desire to well up inside of her until Isabel started to thrust her hips forward both were yearning for the contact of the other. Every slow movement was full of loving and caring, Alex making sure that her pleasure centres were stimulated while he drove her body crazy.
“Uggnnnn, ugnnn, ugnnnnn, Oh Alex, please stop teasing me. I need you…please go faster. Uggnnnnn, Goddddd, please!!” Isabel moaned as each thrust sent a storm of pleasure to her brain. Alex couldn’t take his eyes off of her; he watched as she lowered her head, her hair falling around both sides of her face while water dripped from her nose and chin. He decided to move a little faster but not as much as she would have wanted…no, needed. He wanted to tease her; this was Isabel’s punishment for saying that another guy was attractive, no way in hell was she going to get away with that.
“Ohhhhhhh Isabel, you feel so good…” Alex decided that the teasing was over. He needed to come as much as she did but more importantly he wanted her to reach her climax more than he wanted his own. Thrust after thrust after thrust, he hammered in and out of her tight hole, circling his hips to give him more force and direction.
Isabel was close, ever other push inward Alex made contact with her g-spot. She wanted more and more, her hand still rested on the wall but were now clenched fists.
“I know you’re close Isabel, I can feel it…let go, please. I’ll catch you.” Alex whispered into her ear. She couldn’t refuse him and as if on command her orgasm claimed her body.
“Oh Alex, Alexx, Aleexxxxxxxxx” she screamed as his cock thrust into her one last time. His climax happened almost on the same moment as hers. She could feel his sperm within her as Alex straightened her body against his, his hard penis still within her. She tried to speak but she was still wrapped up in the pleasure, her eyes closed and her mouth opening and closing every few seconds, water filling their open mouths.
Alex held her close to him, his arms wrapped around her with one hand resting on a breast, the other across her stomach and his lips gently caressing her neck. Both of Isabel’s hands rested on his, a glow appeared from both but it was out of sight from them and Grant who watched from the window as the two lovers embraced.
Quickly the two finished the shower and dressed, Alex enjoyed pulling up her underwear almost as much as he enjoyed pulling them down. Within 10 minutes they were out the down, walking hand in hand to his car and then on to school. They had only missed their first class and still had time to think up of a good excuse.
Antarian Central Command, Antar, 1 hour later
Kivar sat in his thrown, waiting for the communication from his general on Earth. They had tracked the rebels to a small town and were preparing to move. Soon his enemies would be dead, Vilandra would be back by his side and Lady Ava would make an excellent addition to his harem.
Soon the holographic generators buzzed into life and an image of Nicholas, his general, appeared before him.
“Report” Boomed Kivar
“My Lord,” Nicholas stated as he bowed “We will be prepared to move soon, our new husks are approaching maturity and the Harvest shall begin within two days, three at most. When all our people have been renewed we shall move upon Zan and his followers.”
“Remember, no harm must come to Princess Vilandra. You will ensure it with your own life. If possible preserve Lady Ava as well but Zan and Rath must die!”
“It will be as you command my lord, the implantations of the Ganderial has been completed. All three will do as they are programmed, I can also report that the Royal Fours principal guardian has been terminated by an unknown assailant, Serena’s location is still unknown to us.”
“Contact me when she has been found or if Ava does conceive a child with Zan before you make your move.” Ordered the false king.
The image bowed again and faded. Kivar was once again left alone with his memories of Vilandra and the love he had for her.
Copper Summit, Earth, Shortly Following
Nicholas made his was to the basement and observed the husks growing in the cylinders. They didn’t have the resources to grow more, without the Granolith this generation would be the last and within a few decades they would be dead. Not that it mattered, 20 years to grow them was draining energy. The only choices to them were to locate the Granolith or die, their ships were destroyed and there was no way off this planet.
Soon he would kill King Zan and with him he would take the Granolith and its power to secure the planet for his people. Damn the humans, after Kivar gets through with Earth there wouldn’t be very many anyway. Suffocating to death in their world’s atmosphere would be an effective method of pest control.
Living Room, Evans Residence, 18:00
Alex and Isabel came home right after school and helped each other with their homework. Tonight everyone else was out, Max and Liz were at the pod chamber talking about something they hadn’t told them about, Michael and Maria were working at the Crashdown and Kyle and Tess were probably home watching cartoons.
Right now their work was done, books were closed and they were watching Notting Hill, Alex felt that the movie seemed to describe their relationship – average guy gets goddess. They were lying on the couch, Isabel had fallen asleep in his arms and Alex gently stroked her hair, barely conscious himself. Both were content and relaxed.
That was when Philip arrived home to find the couple on his couch. He looked at how peaceful they appeared and decided it was time for a little chat with his only daughters’ suitor. He cleared his throat to get their attention and the two awoke. He looked at the fear in their faces and smiled to himself {this could be fun} he thought to himself.
“Isabel, why don’t you go to your room for a minute?” He calmly said to his daughter. Alex suddenly turned to his girlfriend, realising what was about to happen. Philip looked back to Isabel who held onto Alex’s hand for a minute before leaving the room. Once he was sure they wouldn’t be disturbed he returned his gaze to the young man before him.
“Alex…What is your intensions toward my daughter?” His tone was a combination of anger, fear and playfulness, a tone and question that put the fear of god in to Alex.
“Is there any answer to that question that would keep me from the wrong end of a shotgun?” Alex asked. While he was trying to lighten the mood, he was very serious.
The answer was simple. “No!” Philip said.
Alex thought for a moment and realised that Mr. Evans only had his daughter’s best interests at heart, so he decided to give the answer that his heart was telling him.
“Mr. Evans, I’m not going to lie to you…I love Isabel and I know she loves me. The only thing I want to do is make her happy and for as long as were together that will be my main goal, I’ll NEVER intentionally do anything to hurt her.”
The look of confidence and utter sincerity in Alex’s eyes impressed Philip; somehow he just knew that Alex meant what he said. Philip simply nodded and said “Good answer…now sit down, ISABEL, you can come out now!
Now Alex I want you to promise me that neither of you will do anything stupid. I’ve seen how close the two of you have grown in the last year but in the last couple of days it’s been even closer. I also like the fact that I have seen her smile more in the last week than I have in her life and if you’re the cause of that smile then I’m not going to take you away from her. So promise me, right here and now!”
“I promise” Alex said as he nodded, he didn’t want to disappoint Mr. Evans but the fact that they had already crossed that line filled him with fear – from now on he would make sure he had condoms with him and with that promise to Isabel’s father and to himself he sat down, Isabel came out of her room to find her father and boyfriend sitting together and chatting away. The look she got from Alex told her that she would tell her everything later and that was fine with her.
To Be Continued…
285 South, Heading to Roswell, Early Monday Morning
Grant: He had been called out to another site he was working on in Colorado and now after 3 weeks away he was on his way back to Roswell. While he did enjoy Roswell and the work he did, his thought dwelled on his main reason…Isabel. {God, I want to fuck her} he thought to himself. Every time he was in her presence Grant mentally undressed her and had the image of throwing her against the wall and fucking her until she was screaming his name over and over, All the while her brother and friends watching them, especially that little geek Alex.
That did it; those thought always gave him a hard-on. He pulled over to a side road, unzipped his pants and started to relieve himself of his built up tension. He quickly reached into his glove compartment and pulled out a pair of silk panties he stole from the Isabel’s drawer the last time he was in her house. He loved the games he played, pretending to be the kind and caring intellect to attract high school seniors, then when the time was right he would seduce them right into his bed and treat them like the whores they are. Small towns were great for this; after his work was completed he would probably never set foot there again and leave his girls for good.
As he pumped his dick up and down he slowly began to imagine Isabel on all fours while he slammed his cock into her arse while her friend’s Tess and Maria stuck their tongues down Isabel’s throat one after the other before moving under her to lick her tits. God he loved blondes and loved being part of group sex, especially with multiple women, but something about those three hardened his dick. His fist was moving up and down at light speed, loving the feel of the silk on his flesh. After a few minutes of his fantasy he came, spurting his seed all over his steering wheel and dashboard. He cleaned everything up with a cloth he kept under his seat for just such a situation, a situation that was all too familiar for his road trips, and soon he was back on the road to his soon-to-be conquest with a smirk on his face – he just wished he could get rid of these irritating blackouts.
Liz’s Balcony, Parker Residence, 07:00 Monday Morning
Isabel: She needed to talk to Liz before school and so came over as early as she could. Ever since that morning with Alex she had been growing more and more concerned, that was completely out of character for her and Alex. She was afraid that the Granoliths influence would continue to affect her…she didn’t want that. If she was going to be with Alex she wanted it to be because they loved each other and not under the control of alien technology and she was pretty sure Alex felt the same way.
As Isabel approached her window, she knocked on the glass and waited for a response. Liz opened her window and was surprised to see her.
“Isabel…what are you doing here?” she asked as she buttoned up her blue blouse.
“I…eh…wanted to talk to you about the Granolith and the effect it’s having on us.”
Liz was immediately concerned by the tone in her friends voice and the expression on her face so she invited her inside while she prepared for school. Over twenty minutes Liz moved around while she listened as Isabel confessed her fears to her. She couldn’t believe what she was hearing…did Isabel actually think that what she felt wasn’t real? She had to set this right!
“Isabel, what your feeling, your love for Alex, is real…nothing is forcing you to love Alex.” Liz tried to reassure her lovers’ sister.
“But what we did Liz, I’ve never behaved like that in my life and I’m pretty sure Alex hasn’t either. Also we’ve seen each other after…it and nothing felt the same.” She was petrified about being an instrument…a tool so that the Granoliths could merge.
“Okay what I’m going to tell you doesn’t leave this room until I speak to Max about it.” Liz waited for Isabel’s response and once she nodded her head Liz continued.
“Right, what you are feeling for Alex is completely genuine, the Granolith wouldn’t have caused a mating between the two of you unless you loved each other…completely and truly. This is going to be hard to explain! Okay the Granolith forced us all to have sex but it was only with people who we wanted to be with in our hearts…if you didn’t love Alex then it wouldn’t have happened.
The Granolith only opened your eyes and your heart to that love while removing some of your inhibitions. Everything you two shared was lust but it was born out of love – it was the same for all of us. It only wants us to be happy.” Liz explained but it was that last comment that confused Iz.
“What do you mean “IT wants us to be happy”, since when does a machine want?” she asked. Most of what Liz told her took a ton off – she really did love Alex and he loved her.
“We protect the Granolith.” Liz continued “and as much as we protect it, it protects us. It wants us to be happy so that we will use it properly, you see part of its program is an artificial intelligence system designed to guide its users! Effectively it saw what we wanted and helped us take it…literally.”
Both teens blushed at that comment, Liz couldn’t believe she actually said it but could see the relaxation form in Isabel’s face.
“The reason why you, Alex and the rest of a us feel differently is because the Granolith isn’t pushing us anymore. From now on what we do will be because we want it to happen. So…why don’t we go to school and you can talk to Alex and get over any couple issues you guys have.”
Isabel nodded, she wanted to wait for Liz to get ready but she wanted to see her boyfriend a hell of a lot more and so she left the way she came in, telling Liz that she would see her later.
Isabel stepped out of the side alley and headed of to school but soon a pair of hands came up over her eyes. Just was she was about to blast the unwanted invasion of her space she heard “Guess who?” Quickly she turned around and saw local geologist and newest sex symbol of Roswell – Grant Sorenson!
“Hey Grant, what are you doing back in town? I thought you finished your work?” she said.
“What can’t a guy come back to visit his favourite blonde, besides I have some more tests to run out in the woods. So…now that I’m back in town…I was wondering if you would like to go out sometime?” He spoke to her in a calm and sexy voice that he new made girls feel light headed. He was going to bag this one that was for sure, Grant could almost smell her attraction to him.
“Oh, I cant. Grant I’m really sorry but I’ve started to see someone…its pretty serious and I don’t want anyone else at the moment.” {Why the hell did I say “at the moment”} she asked herself {I love Alex and just because of some physical attraction I’m not going to dump him}.
“Oh well, I’m sorry to hear that…I am happy for you Isabel, I hope it works out for you!” He couldn’t be more furious, who ever this guy was he was going to die. How dare he touch Isabel before he had a chance to taste her…but he would still have her no matter what! Right now he just needed to play the game. He decided to end this little session so he reached down to kiss her cheek, said he would she her later and goodbye.
Meanwhile, across the street Alex was walking to school and hoped that he would run unto Isabel. Unfortunately it was at the point of the kiss was when Alex saw them. It may have been only a peck on the check but how dare this Grant come to town as kiss his girl. He was filled with such rage, jealousy and possessiveness that he was scared he might do something wrong so he turned and left.
Back on the street Isabel watched as Grant got back into his car and then suddenly felt a huge wave of anger and jealousy wash over her. Turning her head she instinctively knew the direction it was coming from, there she saw Alex turning away from her and running down an alley. Isabel followed as fast as she could but in turning into the same alley Alex was nowhere to be found. All Isabel could do was to make her way to school. {I’ll talk to him later} she thought to herself.
Girl’s Locker Room, West Roswell High, 20 minutes before class starts
Kyle had been teasing Tess all the way to school, running his hands over her legs, nibbling on her ears and giving her long passionate kisses that left her hot. By the time they got in the doors Tess was desperate for some serious attention and pulled Kyle in the locker room. She sealed the door with her powers and pushed him into a shower stall where she unzipped his trousers and pulled out his cock. Within seconds she was kneeling before him.
Taking his erect penis into her mouth, Tess slowly began to suck him while running her tongue over his length. Kyle moaned in pure bliss as her fulsome lips embraced his cock. He slowly reached out his hand and cradled the back of her head as she caressed him slowly with her tongue. Kyle felt incredible; this was the most amazing blowjob he ever had. It felt like Tess knew exactly what to do to please him, turning Kyle’s knees into jelly and causing his toes to curl up.
“Oh yes,” he sighed as Tess ran her lips up his shaft and around his glands. Next she trailed back down to the base of his penis, lightly running her teeth down his length. The blissful sensations had him raised up onto his toes.
As Tess concentrated on rhythmically swallowing Kyle's ample length and soon she could feel the telltale signs of his approaching orgasm. Already she could feel his cock swelling in her mouth, his semen surging in his balls.
“Ughhhh, Tess…God…I’m gonna cum!” Tess latched on to his cock and wouldn’t let Kyle go as he pumped his seed into her mouth, which she eagerly swallowed. Slowly Kyle’s breathing went back to normal as his orgasm subsided but Tess held her position, kissing and licking him as he calmed down.
“So how was that?” Tess asked Kyle as she stood back on her feet. Kyle grabbed hold of her and pulled her into a hug, all she could do was hug him back, eyes closed and a wide smile on her face. As Kyle pulled away from her he changed their positions so that she was now against that wall. Tess bit her lower lip in anticipation as he slid down her body, stoking her naked legs as he knelt before her. Looking up into Tess’s eyes he reached up under her skirt and hooked his finger around the waist of her panties. Slowly he pulled them down, exposing her moist opening to him.
Kyle moved his face closer to the apex of her thighs while moving her legs apart. Tess threw her head back as Kyle made contact with her flesh; her left leg involuntary moved up and rested on his shoulder. Her own arms rested on the low walls of the cubical, helping to keep her balance as Kyle ate her.
“Eat me Kyle, Please…” she trailed of as her lover stroked his tongue over her slit again and again. Her hips started to buckle against his mouth; she was desperate for more contact, desperate to climax into his mouth. Soon Kyle’s tongue found its goal; slowly he circled her clit and plunged his tongue into her pussy with short, hard stabs bringing her ever closer to the edge.
Kyle returned his tongue to the knob of pleasure within her soft folds while stick two finger up into her. Thrusting in and out, Tess moaned and shook her head from side to side, holding her hand to his head she pulled him in closer. Her other hand moved to his fingers, pulling them out and then moved it to join her other hand.
“Oh ffuuuuuck, Kyle. I…eat me…I’m coming…I’m commmiiinggg!!” Kyle covered her core with his mouth and drank in all of her juices as they poured forth from her. As Kyle released her leg, she slid down the wall, her face flushed and covered with sweat. She pulled him toward her and hugged Kyle. Just when they were about to kiss the bell rang out through the hallways of Roswell High. They jumped back and laughed, Kyle returned Tess’s underwear to her and they straightened themselves up before returning to the day, Tess mind-warping the people in the immediate area so that no-one saw Kyle leaving the Girls locker room.
Whitman Residence, Immediately Following
Alex never went to school; he turned around and went straight home. He still couldn’t believe what he had seen on the street, Grant kissing Isabel, the image made him feel sick. Even if it was just on the cheek what right did that…geologist have – he couldn’t deal with loosing Isabel to him, not after last time. There was also something about Grant that made him shiver and afraid for Isabel.
Isabel herself was moving closer to his house with each beat of her heart, after the alley she began to worry about him and was moving on pure instinct to find her beloved mate. Now that she realized that he was heading home her pace increased until she was running to his house.
She didn’t even stop to knock, opening the door she moved like a cat to his bedroom where she found Alex grabbing on to the back of his deck chair. She could sense the pain coming off of him and somehow knew that she was involved in causing it…all she could think of was to make that pain go away.
“Alex…are you okay?” she asked in a whisper; quiet but loud enough to get his attention.
Alex was surprised and quickly turned around. “Isabel? What are you doing here?”
“I saw you earlier and I got worried when you ran off. So are you okay?” she asked again
“No, no I’m not. I saw that kiss between you and Grant. I saw…hell I don’t know what I saw but you seemed to like it. What’s going on Isabel, I thought we had something!”
Isabel couldn’t believe he was thinking this, but she found it strangely comforting. “Alex, nothings going on between me and Grant. He showed up, asked me out and I told him that I was in a serious relationship. He said that he hoped that it will work out and then kissed me goodbye…that was it! You have nothing to worry about...do you believe me?” He tone was as comforting and reassuring as she could make it.
“Of course I believe you, but…I…god, I’ve no idea what happened. I just felt jealous and you looked like you enjoyed being with him. I just freaked, I guess this is still new, I’m still adjusting!” He said, slightly confused by his feelings.
“Alex, I’m not going to lie to you…I do find him attractive but that’s all. Listen, I talked to Liz earlier…she said that if we didn’t want to be with each other or had problems with our feelings then the Granolith wouldn’t have…influenced us into making love. What we have, what we feel for each other is the real thing Alex. We love each other completely and I never want to loose that. I will never jeopardise that just because of a little attraction…not when I love and have you!”
Isabel’s words penetrated his very soul. He already knew everything she had just said, he just needed to hear it…well he could do without knowing that she was attracted to Grant but then she was part human. Isabel could see that she had gotten through to him; she could sense it as well as he lifted his hand to her cheek and pulled her into a loving kiss.
“I love you too!” he said as he backed off a little but still held her close.
That was when Isabel realised that she was a little sweaty from her run to the house and she didn’t want to get to school looking like this.
“Alex, can I use your shower for a minute? I just want to freshen up before we go to school.” Alex nodded and she made her way to the bathroom. It was after a few minutes that he realised that Isabel was naked, in his house with warm water cascading over her firm, supple body. He was hard in an instant and couldn’t resist the temptation to join her.
Quickly he undressed and entered the bathroom, seeing her standing in the tub with her back facing him took his breath away. He stood and watched her for a moment, watching as he hands lathered soap over her body, washing the sweat away. He moved as quietly as he could and upon entering the tub he started to kiss her shoulders. Isabel didn’t turn around, she brought her hands together and held them to her chest, smiling as Alex moved from one shoulder to the other while moving her soaked hair round to her front.
As Alex’s hands moved to hold her hips Isabel turned round to face him and cupping his face she pulled him into a passionate kiss, a kiss that was fed even more heat by the hot waters that poured over them. Alex couldn’t wait anymore; slowly he turned Isabel away from him again while guiding her arms up to the wall so that she could support herself. Bending her down slightly allowed Alex to gain access to what he desired and while he teased Isabel’s breast with his let hand, he used his right to guide himself into her waiting heat.
Once he was fully sheathed within her velvet folds, Alex pulled out to his tip and then slowly pushed back in. He repeated this time and time again, causing desire to well up inside of her until Isabel started to thrust her hips forward both were yearning for the contact of the other. Every slow movement was full of loving and caring, Alex making sure that her pleasure centres were stimulated while he drove her body crazy.
“Uggnnnn, ugnnn, ugnnnnn, Oh Alex, please stop teasing me. I need you…please go faster. Uggnnnnn, Goddddd, please!!” Isabel moaned as each thrust sent a storm of pleasure to her brain. Alex couldn’t take his eyes off of her; he watched as she lowered her head, her hair falling around both sides of her face while water dripped from her nose and chin. He decided to move a little faster but not as much as she would have wanted…no, needed. He wanted to tease her; this was Isabel’s punishment for saying that another guy was attractive, no way in hell was she going to get away with that.
“Ohhhhhhh Isabel, you feel so good…” Alex decided that the teasing was over. He needed to come as much as she did but more importantly he wanted her to reach her climax more than he wanted his own. Thrust after thrust after thrust, he hammered in and out of her tight hole, circling his hips to give him more force and direction.
Isabel was close, ever other push inward Alex made contact with her g-spot. She wanted more and more, her hand still rested on the wall but were now clenched fists.
“I know you’re close Isabel, I can feel it…let go, please. I’ll catch you.” Alex whispered into her ear. She couldn’t refuse him and as if on command her orgasm claimed her body.
“Oh Alex, Alexx, Aleexxxxxxxxx” she screamed as his cock thrust into her one last time. His climax happened almost on the same moment as hers. She could feel his sperm within her as Alex straightened her body against his, his hard penis still within her. She tried to speak but she was still wrapped up in the pleasure, her eyes closed and her mouth opening and closing every few seconds, water filling their open mouths.
Alex held her close to him, his arms wrapped around her with one hand resting on a breast, the other across her stomach and his lips gently caressing her neck. Both of Isabel’s hands rested on his, a glow appeared from both but it was out of sight from them and Grant who watched from the window as the two lovers embraced.
Quickly the two finished the shower and dressed, Alex enjoyed pulling up her underwear almost as much as he enjoyed pulling them down. Within 10 minutes they were out the down, walking hand in hand to his car and then on to school. They had only missed their first class and still had time to think up of a good excuse.

Living Room, Evans Residence, 18:00
Alex and Isabel came home right after school and helped each other with their homework. Tonight everyone else was out, Max and Liz were at the pod chamber talking about something they hadn’t told them about, Michael and Maria were working at the Crashdown and Kyle and Tess were probably home watching cartoons.

Chapter 18
Michael’s Apartment, Same day, 20:00
Michael: Max and Liz returned from the Granolith half an hour ago and the first thing they did was to call a meeting. Once again Michael was put out, preparing for a special evening with Maria was cancelled and now he was host to the ‘I Know An Alien Club’.
“Okay Maxwell, so what’s going on? You two have been hold up in that chamber for the better part of the day and now you call us together with no explanation…”
His tone echoed what he was feeling, frustration, agitation, annoyance…it was all there. He just wanted to spend some time with his girlfriend that didn’t involve work.
Max: He had no idea how to begin, he knew that he should not have kept this from the others but new needed some time to think. Changing the future to save a dear friend was one thing but to seal the fate of the Skins on Earth…they may be enemies but this would still cause death on a massive scale.
“In a couple of days the Skins will begin something called the Harvest. Basically the suits they wear to protect themselves are breaking down and need to be replaced. The first time around we went there and destroyed their new husks before they could mature. That’s the situation!”
Michael: “That’s the situation? What the hell did it take you so long to tell us, now we’ve only got two days before they what…get stronger, be ready to take us on?”
Now he was mad. Something this serious should not have been kept from any of them, least of all him. He was the fighter, the protector of the group…how could he do his job if he didn’t know what was going on?
Isabel: She too was annoyed, the Skins killed Nasedo, Whitaker kidnapped & beat Tess and tried to abduct her and now they were preparing to strengthen their unit.
“Max you should have told us about this, why didn’t you anyway?”
Max: “The information I got was hazy on some things but on this situation it was clear. A few of us had trouble dealing with the fact that we effectively committed murder…while it was the only option we had then, its not now. I needed some time to think about what to do.
It takes twenty years for the husks to develop, if we destroy this batch then they Skins die out, using what we know to save one of us is one thing but this…
This is the plan, we wont do it unless we are all agreed, okay!”
The group nodded their heads and listened as Max laid out the plan he and Liz had come up with. After an hour of heated arguments, opposing ideas and new suggestions it was agreed upon. They would proceed as they had before, Max and the others would drive into Copper Summit as they did before but this time Tess would use her powers to conceal Kyle and Alex. They would sneak to the Husk Room while Max, Liz and the other aliens provided the distraction necessary to complete the task.
It was decided that they would go leave in the morning; suitable excuses were made up for their parents and meeting arrangements were made. With that they all went home for a good nights sleep…they were going to need it, despite the temptation to spend the evening with their significant others. However, Maria stayed back for a few minutes before driving Liz and Alex home.
“Michael, can I talk to you for a second?” she asked quietly
“Sure, what’s up?” He could see that something was worrying her and given how close they now were he wanted to make her as happy as possible…without being bubbly.
“Michael…I’m worried about this thing tomorrow. I don’t want to see you hur…god I can’t believe I’m being like this. I don’t want to loose you Michael, I couldn’t bear it if something went wrong tomorrow!” She could not understand why she was feeling this attached to him, she never felt like this before but now the mere thought of him in a dangerous situation sent shivers down her spine and filled her with dread.
“Hey, it’s okay. I’ll be coming back to you; you have absolutely nothing to worry about. Hell we made it through this thing once; we’ll do it again…hopefully this time we will clean up our mess before something bad happens.”
Michael felt the same things as Maria; he was a part of her as much as she was of him. Maria was his mate, signed & sealed by the Granolith itself, and no power on this Earth could keep him from her as long as he lived.
His words helped sooth Maria’s troubled spirit. He said that he would come back to her…not Roswell, not Max nor Isabel but to her. She liked that, for the first time she felt like she was truly apart of his life and not just a girl who knew his secret and had a thing for each other. Michael could see that she was calming slightly and decided to relax her. Running his hands up her arms and pulled her into a warm embrace, holding her head to his chest before lifting her chin to give her a loving, reassuring kiss.
“Now, I want you to go home, spend some time with your mum and get some sleep…you haven’t been getting a lot lately!” While he smirked at his little joke, Maria slapped his arm and laughed. She then turned to walk out of the door.
“Oh hey, say hi to your mom for okay!” Michael requested. It made Maria stop dead and her tracks and slowly turn her head to face the boyfriend who had just floored her.
Turning the rest of her to face him, she said, “What did you just say?”
“What, I can’t be nice to the most important person in your life, besides I plan to be spending a lot of time with you and sooner or later you mother is going to catch on to how close we really are…having a few brownie points could prove to be very useful!”
Maria gave a wicked grin and walked seductively back to her lover, “Good plan but bear in mind that I’m her only daughter, no matter how much your in her good books; if my mother finds out your sleeping with me she will kill you…painfully.” Michael grimaced, Maria was right…he was a dead man walking.
Maria kissed him goodbye, left the apartment and walked to her car where her two friends were waiting…Alex with a smirk on his face.
“Shut up!” she said
“Didn’t say a thing” said Alex as he sat in the back seat. The three drove home quietly, their thoughts dwelling on what must happen tomorrow…them or us and given what was at stake it was a simple answer with a difficult consequence.
Pod Chamber, New York, 22:00
Zan: What the hell was going on, for the past couple of months his sister and friend have been acting more self-centred and now Kivars’ general, Nicholas had arrived and invited them to attend a summit of the planetary leaders of the Antarian star system. As much as he wanted to believe that his group was the primary four, they didn’t have the Granolith and without that they had no power.
Sooner or later he was going to have to contact the Roswell four and hoped that they knew the Granolith’s location. It was the only way they were going to be safe and under no circumstances would Kivar settle for any arrangement that meant he didn’t have the Granolith.
“Hey Zan, you ok?” asked Ava from behind him.
“Yeah, fine…just thinking about the summit.”
“You’re not gonna go are you?”
“How do you know?” Zan asked.
“Cause I know you, besides I don’t like the situation any more than you and if I was you I’d stay here. Now come on, Rath and Lonnie are out somewhere, why don’t we go find a party to crash or somethin’?”
It never failed to surprise Zan at how much Ava knew him. She always seemed to understand what was going on in his head, even when he didn’t. It was one of the many reasons why he loved her so much; he just wished he could get this feeling out of his head that he was connected to someone else. “Yeah, come on!” He took her hand and together they went out to find a decent club.
Husk Growth Chamber, Copper Summit, Midnight
Nicholas: It was his nightly routine; every night for the last twenty years since the new husks were first formed he came down to the room. Pulling a switch on the wall and a pedestal came up from the floor and began to shoot pale purple beams of light toward each of the lifeless bodies, infusing them with energy and nutrients. Slowly he walked up to the tube that held his future husk and said “Soon”. He nodded and deactivated the device, leaving the growth tubes to finish their jobs and give new life to his people.
Soon everything would be in place, Zan will die at the hands of his second and the others will make the necessary moves to recruit the Roswell Zan. Separating him from his unit will weaken him to the point where he could learn the Granolith’s location…at the very least he would have the pleasure of seeing him die. Then he could finally leave this god-forsaken rock and resume his position on Antar. However right now his attention was returned to finishing his task. Leaving the room, he returned to his home and transmitted another status report back to Antar. Everything was on schedule…little did he know that his enemy was on his way to scupper his plans.
Stagecoach Museum, Copper Summit, Wednesday 10:00am
The group of teens had arranged excuses for getting out of school that day and Sheriff Valenti had provided the corroboration that they were doing work experience at an out of town hospital and the Highway Patrol. Once everything was set with their parents they left very early in the morning…too early especially for Maria who was soundly sleeping against Michael. He had wanted her to stay behind but she forced the issue and said that they were all in this together, that and the whispered comment about not getting any for a month helped to break down his resolve.
Needless to say the jeep was packed and while Max drove Tess and Isabel sat on their boyfriends laps, slowly pushing their butts into their growing erections. Both girls knew that, if everything went well today, they would be on their backs with the guys between their legs before sundown. Not that they would mind but right now they had the mission to deal with. Max stopped they car shortly before they hit town to let Kyle and Alex out and let them do their job, now in town he stopped once again and rolled down the window as he spotted a local…
“Excuse me, is this Copper Summit?” asked Max
“Yeah, welcome to dead-as-a-doornail central. What can I do for you?” asked the local
“Were looking for the Universal Friendship League…any idea where we can find it?” Isabel said as she looked around the area.
“Yeah it’s that big building at the end of the street…you here for the Harvest?”
“Yes, we’ve been out of contact for a while…a friend managed to forward a letter for us to let us know it was happening.” All Max could think was {Thank god} he would hate to know what would happen if he tried to bluff his way into town without knowing what was going on.
“Well always nice to welcome old members back to the fold…go on up to the main house they’ll be glad to see you.”
Max nodded and rolled his window back up. Driving off he looked into the rear view mirror and could see the local making a call on his cell phone.
“Group of six heading your way…old friends, better check them out!” he said as he closed his phone.
Meanwhile, Kyle and Alex had quietly made a run into town from behind the buildings. They went as carefully as possible so that they didn’t get caught and followed the map Max had made for them was quite simple. Alex found a back door to the Museum but found it locked. Kyle also tried the doorknob but couldn’t force it but instead of letting go his hand began to glow.
“Uhh Alex…” Kyle said while looking down to his hand. Alex looked at Kyle then down to his hand.
“What’s going on…since when do you do that?” Asked Alex.
“I have no idea!” Just then he heard a click and in turning the handle her found it to be open. Kyle just looked to Alex and said “We’ll do this now, then talk with the others when we get home…okay?”
Alex nodded and followed Alex inside both looking for the trapdoor to the underground facility.
Universal Friendship League Building
Greer: he had been watching the six teens since they approached the building; the call he received earlier had concerned him and immediately looked up the files of all Skins who hadn’t been heard from. None of the images he had on file even remotely resembled the members of this group yet they drive into town, aware of the Harvest and what this town was all about but appeared to be calm. His first call was to Nicholas to tell him to be on guard and to get instructions…Nicholas immediately recognised some of the members of the group from their descriptions – the Royal Four was in town. Greer’s instructions were simple – confront and neutralise.
He moved out of the back office when he heard the doors open.
“Well, well, well. After all this time, our search for the Royal 4 has ended. How nice of you to save us a bit of effort!” Taking a step to the side he looked toward Max, who stood in front of the group. “You must be the once and soon to be dead king…and you must be his bride!” He said looking from Max to Tess.
“Actually no.” Said Tess, looking toward Liz she stated, “That is going to be her job…I’m spoken for.”
“Well no matter what situation you half breeds have gotten you’re selves into, I have been looking forward too this.” Greer said as he raised his hand up suddenly…
Meanwhile, back in the Museum.
“Where the hell is this thing?” Kyle whispered
“Hey check this out…” Said Alex as he found a small space in the floor under a lot of dust and straw. Kyle came over and the two cleared the floor of debris finding what they sought. Opening the door Kyle and Alex each took a deep breath and headed down the stairway into the facility.
“Okay…lets do this, Max said there was some kind of crystal on the wall we need to smash.”
In the chamber, Kyle and Alex looked around at each of the tubes and then to each other. “We’re in deep shit!” said Kyle.
“No kidding…look at it this way, we get to spend the evening with our girls and I’ve reserved a place at that new Italian restaurant for tonight. I plan on keeping that date!” Alex said as they began to look for the crystal.
“Jeez man, Isabel’s got you whipped. That place costs a fortune.” Kyle joked.
“Money very well spent…you might want to consider using it with Tess, romance is the way to a woman’s heart.”
“And body!” Kyle couldn’t help make that comment and new he was going to get a death look from his friend. {Uhhhnnn} Kyle wondered, {When did I start being friends with the class geek…Oh well, I can think of worse things.}
“Hey, check it out” Alex said as he turned and pointed to the crystal on the wall where they had entered the room.
“Okay…lets take out some frustration!” Kyle said, picking up a pipe and swinging it to smash the crystal.
Universal Friendship League
Greer raised his hand and sent a blast of yellow energy toward Max, who quickly countered it by raising his own hand to generate a shield. Michael decided to enter the battle of wills and started to blast at Greer who used his other hand to absorbed the energy.
All of a sudden Greer weakened and collapsed to the floor, Liz looked out of the window and noticed that an army of approaching skins also fell to the ground.
“Okay, Guys we better leave…like right NOW!” she said as Max and the others approached the window. Maria was the first to move, grabbing Max’s car keys she ran out to start the jeep while the others finished what the needed to do. Max went back over to the skin lying on the floor; lifting his leg he thrust the heel of his foot into the base of Greer’s back. Within seconds he was dust.
The group piled into the jeep and Maria speed away, stopping at the museum to collect their missing friends. Kyle and Alex came running out and jumped inside, every one packed inside with little room to move but they were exhilarated…the job was done. However Max had a look of concern on his face that did not go unnoticed by Liz or Isabel.
“Max…what’s wrong?” asked Isabel
“Something was missing from all that.” He responded; his face and tone filled with concern.
“What?” Liz asked.
“Nicholas!” he stated as the car left a dust trail as they headed back home and to their lives.
Back in Copper Summit, the Skins approached the entryway to the Husk Facility.
“What do we do now…these husks wont last the year? We’re as good as dead!” said one Skin.
“We may be dead in a year but we still have time to kill Zan…”said Ida as she approached from behind. “…Nicholas has gone to New York, we are to go after the Roswell Four…FOR KIVAR!” she yelled.
“FOR KIVAR!” yelled the remaining Skins. Then they disbursed, this place was no longer safe for them…it was time to move on.
To Be Continued…
Michael’s Apartment, Same day, 20:00
Michael: Max and Liz returned from the Granolith half an hour ago and the first thing they did was to call a meeting. Once again Michael was put out, preparing for a special evening with Maria was cancelled and now he was host to the ‘I Know An Alien Club’.
“Okay Maxwell, so what’s going on? You two have been hold up in that chamber for the better part of the day and now you call us together with no explanation…”
His tone echoed what he was feeling, frustration, agitation, annoyance…it was all there. He just wanted to spend some time with his girlfriend that didn’t involve work.
Max: He had no idea how to begin, he knew that he should not have kept this from the others but new needed some time to think. Changing the future to save a dear friend was one thing but to seal the fate of the Skins on Earth…they may be enemies but this would still cause death on a massive scale.
“In a couple of days the Skins will begin something called the Harvest. Basically the suits they wear to protect themselves are breaking down and need to be replaced. The first time around we went there and destroyed their new husks before they could mature. That’s the situation!”
Michael: “That’s the situation? What the hell did it take you so long to tell us, now we’ve only got two days before they what…get stronger, be ready to take us on?”
Now he was mad. Something this serious should not have been kept from any of them, least of all him. He was the fighter, the protector of the group…how could he do his job if he didn’t know what was going on?
Isabel: She too was annoyed, the Skins killed Nasedo, Whitaker kidnapped & beat Tess and tried to abduct her and now they were preparing to strengthen their unit.
“Max you should have told us about this, why didn’t you anyway?”
Max: “The information I got was hazy on some things but on this situation it was clear. A few of us had trouble dealing with the fact that we effectively committed murder…while it was the only option we had then, its not now. I needed some time to think about what to do.
It takes twenty years for the husks to develop, if we destroy this batch then they Skins die out, using what we know to save one of us is one thing but this…
This is the plan, we wont do it unless we are all agreed, okay!”
The group nodded their heads and listened as Max laid out the plan he and Liz had come up with. After an hour of heated arguments, opposing ideas and new suggestions it was agreed upon. They would proceed as they had before, Max and the others would drive into Copper Summit as they did before but this time Tess would use her powers to conceal Kyle and Alex. They would sneak to the Husk Room while Max, Liz and the other aliens provided the distraction necessary to complete the task.
It was decided that they would go leave in the morning; suitable excuses were made up for their parents and meeting arrangements were made. With that they all went home for a good nights sleep…they were going to need it, despite the temptation to spend the evening with their significant others. However, Maria stayed back for a few minutes before driving Liz and Alex home.
“Michael, can I talk to you for a second?” she asked quietly
“Sure, what’s up?” He could see that something was worrying her and given how close they now were he wanted to make her as happy as possible…without being bubbly.
“Michael…I’m worried about this thing tomorrow. I don’t want to see you hur…god I can’t believe I’m being like this. I don’t want to loose you Michael, I couldn’t bear it if something went wrong tomorrow!” She could not understand why she was feeling this attached to him, she never felt like this before but now the mere thought of him in a dangerous situation sent shivers down her spine and filled her with dread.

Chapter 19
Luigi’s Restaurant, Roswell, 19:00
Isabel: Alex had told her nothing of what to expect from their date tonight, nothing except to dress elegantly. So that’s what she did, she went through everything in her wardrobe before settling on her favourite dress (black silk, no back, down to her ankles and showing enough cleavage to be tasteful yet enough to drive Alex nuts) and fixed her hair to that it fell down and over her left shoulder, making her look sultry and as seductive as possible. She certainly drew a lot of attention that evening.
Alex: He himself was breathless when he picked her up, barely able to speak; he said, “You look great”. Isabel couldn’t help but blush at his reaction {mission successful} she thought. However, that was not the only reaction in the house, both her brother and father appeared behind her with their arms crossed and looked at Alex. Mr Evans raised one of his eyebrows and gave him a look that reminded him of his promise. Alex was dressed in a black suit, complete with tie…Mrs Evans couldn’t hold back any longer and pulled both teens into the living room and grabbed her camera.
Flashback~~~
Diane: She had seen her daughter prepare for this date all day yesterday and from when she returned from their work experience, A.K.A Copper Summit. Isabel was frantic, finding a dress then throwing it away, checking out another and another and another…eventually settling on the first. It was then that Diane sat her daughter down on her bed and had a chat with her; she had never seen Isabel prepare for any date like this.
“Isabel…Honey, relax. You are going to look beautiful.” Diane said in a soothing tone that wasn’t having much of an effect.
“Mom…Alex it going to be here in 2 hours…I’m no where near ready. I don’t even know what he has planned, all he said was dress elegant…I don’t wanna disappoint him!”
“Honey, I don’t think that’s possible. I don’t think I’ve see you like this before…what’s different about this date?” Diane was as curious as hell at what could get this reaction out of Isabel…and what she could do to encourage it. She loved it when Isabel smiled.
“Those weren’t dates…they were nights out…this is my first real date and I don’t want to mess it up…besides its with Alex!” Just mentioning his name brought a smile to her lips and it didn’t go unnoticed by her mother who also smiled. Diane couldn’t help but wonder what Alex had in store for Isabel this evening.
“Is…how serious is your relationship with Alex?”
“I love him mom…I can’t actually believe I just said that but I do. I can’t wait to see him and when I’m away from him my skin crawls, time goes by slowly and it feels like a piece of me is missing…” Isabel just went on and on, eventually she stopped and faced her mother who just watched her with a tear in her eye. Diane reached for her daughter and hugged her tightly.
“I happy for you Isabel but I want you to know that you can come to me with anything and I want you to promise me that the two of you wont do anything until your ready and that you’ll be careful.”
Isabel nodded, she didn’t want to disappoint her mother…not only had she and Alex been having sex but it was without protection. She knew she should have been using condoms…its not exactly like she could go on the pill but everything that had happened had been unexpected and very much a surprise.
“Okay now, lets get you ready for your boyfriend.” Said Diane as she helped her daughter to her feet and gathered makeup and hairspray.
End Flashback~~~
They had gone through ten snaps of the camera before Diane let them leave for their date. Alex had gone out of his way to be the gentlemen, opening the car door for her, pulling back her seat as she sat at the table; everything designed to entice the romance of the evening. He even arranged for a violinist to play by their table which was set with a single red rose and two red candles, their flames reflecting in Isabel’s moist eyes, drawing Alex’s gaze…the two of them simply staring at each other as they ate.
Alex took a drink of water and came to a decision; time to put the lessons his mother made him take to good use. He stood up and walked over to Isabel…
“May I have this dance?” He asked. Isabel’s smile widened and took his outreached hand. She stood and Alex led her to the dance floor, they were the only couple out there and they drew the attention of many others who soon followed them. Music began to play from the main band while the brightness of the lights lowered and a spotlight shone down from above them. Isabel thought that everything was perfect as Alex held her close. Unknown to the two of them, Grant was watching them from a darkened corner. It was then, as he watched the two danced in the light, that he knew he had no chance with Isabel…not without drastic action!
Meanwhile back on the dance floor, as much as Isabel loved this, she was curious as hell and had to know…
“Alex, who are you paying for this? This has to be the most expensive place in town.” She asked into his ear.
Alex smiled as he answered. “When my grandmother died a couple of years ago, she left me with an inheritance…$8000.”
Isabel stopped dancing and looked into his eyes. “And you’re spending it on tonight! Alex you shouldn’t have done that.” Her tone was full of concern and shock.
“I can’t think of any better way to spend it, besides tonight won’t make a dent in it. We haven’t spent as much as I would have expected and anyway…I wanted this to be a night to remember!”
Isabel smiled as she rested her head on his shoulder and the two of them began to dance once again. Eventually they stopped and went back to the table. An hour later they were finished and Alex paid the bill but neither wanted the evening to end just yet so Isabel suggested that they could go out to the mountain that held the pod chamber and gaze at the stars. It didn’t take them long to reach it and as they carefully made their way to the top, Alex removed his jacket and placed it around his lover as he noticed that she was beginning to shiver in the night air.
However they were both still a little cold so she asked Alex to gather some rocks. She used her powers to change them into wood and set them alit, the warmth radiating throughout the area, warming their bodies. They stayed like that for half an hour, just talking about things, school, their hopes for what was to come and their friends. Soon they made their way into the pod chamber, as much as they wanted to resist and respect the warnings of Isabel’s parents they both knew that the night was leading to this, they wanted to make love and they wanted to do it now…and something just seemed more special about doing it here, in this place where Isabel was born.
Isabel stood in the middle of the room; her breath was clearly visible in the cold air that filled the cave. Alex came up behind her and pulled her body tightly against his as he started to kiss the exposed skin of her shoulders. He slowly moved one of his hands round to her back about pulled the zipper of her dress down. Alex hooked the thumb and forefinger of his other hand round the silk strap and moved it away; he quickly repeated this on the other side allowing Isabel’s dress to fall away from her body.
She now stood before him only in black panties, strapless bra and garter belt, complete with stockings. Alex thought that Isabel couldn’t have been more beautiful than when he picked her up but now he had to re-evaluate that assessment. Slowly she turned around as Alex reached his hand up to cup the side of her face before pulling her in for a gently and loving kiss. Her hands were not idle. She moved her palm along his shirt, popping each of the buttons as she went.
Alex pulled back from the kiss and quickly undid the cufflinks before removing his shirt. The smile on Isabel’s face brightened the entire room, she reached behind her and undid the catch of her bra and let it fall to the floor – now both teens were topless and moved back in to kiss, Isabel’s breasts pressed firmly into his chest; her nipples grazing his own.
Their second kiss was more intense than the first, their tongues fought for dominance, neither surrendering yet both wanting to give themselves to their lover. This entire night was about love and so was this session of sex, their previous two times together before this was lust mixed with love but not now. Isabel reached down to Alex’s trousers and cupped his ever-hardening member before moving up to undo his belt.
Alex sucked in his breath as Isabel touched him, soon he stopped kissing her mouth and moved down to her neck as he ran his hands along her back…god he loved the feel of her skin and Isabel loved his delicate touch which caused her own breathing to grow heavy while her eyes rolled up and her eyelids closed. Isabel couldn’t wait; she finished with his belt and moved onto his trousers, which he kicked off in record time.
Somehow the two ended up on the ground, rolling around in the dust the layered the floor of the chamber, kissing and running their hands over every inch of flesh they could reach. Alex stopped as he moved back up onto his knees, pulling his boxer shorts off; Isabel was resting on her elbows with her back raised so that she could look at him.
As soon as his underwear was off Alex moved over to his love, looking into her eyes he went over to her legs and lifted her feet. He gently removed her high heals and gently sucked each toe into his mouth causing Isabel to fall back in a fit of giggles and pleasure…this was an erogenous zone she had no idea about. All too soon Alex stopped loving her toes and began stroking up her long legs, eventually reaching her panties and pulled them off. He threw them over to her dress and pushed her legs apart; looking into her eyes she smiled and bent his head down to his goal.
“Alex…” Isabel moaned as he made contact with her moist flesh. Alex licked his tongue along her slit, each movement was slow but soon he started to stab in and out of Isabel. He was driving her crazy, her left hand travelled through her hair while the other moved down her flushed face and over to her breast, pinching and twisting her nipple…she was desperate to reach her climax and Alex just continued to devour her.
“Alex, I need you inside me! Please…” She was screaming and panting, loving the things Alex was doing to her but suddenly he stopped and released his mouth from her core. He went to his discarded trousers and retrieved the condom from his wallet, removing it from the foil wrapper Alex placed it on the tip of his cock and rolled it back, sheathing himself in its protection. He went back over to Isabel and moved up until their hips matched position and reached down to kiss her hard and passionately. Their tongues ran along each other and Isabel wrapped her stocking clad legs around his waist, with no further hesitation she pulled him forward, allowing him to enter her in one swift stroke.
Alex pulled back and then in again, each movement enticing a sigh and moan from Isabel. He built up a steady rhythm, moving faster with ever other stroke. Eventually he was pounding into her, he wanted to see her come apart in his arms, he wanted to see the look in her eyes when it happened and most of all he wanted her to know that he would make her feel like this when ever she wanted it.
“Alex, God, please…” Isabel sighed as she bit into his neck. Alex placed one of his hands behind her head as he continued to push in and out of her and pulled her head back to the ground.
“Isabel, come for me my love, let me see you…you’re mine…now and forever…say it, please!” The sweat was pouring off his skin; mixing with Isabel’s and making them slide against each other easily.
“Yes…yes…yes…yess…yesss…yessssss…YESSSSSSS”, She screamed each time Alex thrust into her, Isabel came with such intensity that she passed out for a few seconds Alex followed immediately. Seeing Isabel in the throws of passion like this was the most erotic thing he had ever seen.
Alex dislodged himself from his sated alien lover and moved up beside her, spooning Isabel up next to him. He reached down and pulled off his condom and placed it to the side, he ran his hand down the arm she wasn’t leaning on and intertwined their fingers.
Fifteen minutes later they were dressed and on their way back home, Alex had one hand on the steering wheel and the other on Isabel’s hand, bringing it up to his mouth to kiss it. Soon they were outside her house and Alex walked her up to the door, they were both sad that the night was over but both could say that they had the best and most romantic night of their lives. He gave her a goodnight kiss, a tame kiss since he noticed a sliver of light coming from the living room window…he knew that her father was watching.
With the end of the gentle kiss they both smiled and he went back to his car with memories of a perfect evening.
Warehouse, New York, 3 Day Later.
“Sir, everything is prepared for the summit. We are only waiting for Zan’s confirmation.” Said the Skin
“Very well, I will proceed to see Vilandra, if anyone can convince him it’s his sister. Is there any word from the others?” enquired Nicholas. He was pissed off that the facility had been destroyed, from all reports they knew exactly what to do but that was impossible. But now that didn’t matter, all that mattered was to secure the location of the Granolith and save himself and his people and with any luck kill Zan and his associates.
“No sir, they were scheduled to impose the temporal disruption this morning but so far nothing…it is possible that Zan has already determined what they were going to do and countered it.”
“Very well.” With that Nicholas left the building and went to his meeting with Vilandra, she and Rath had become a lot more receptive to Kivar’s ideas since they were infected a few months ago but they were now at the critical time…they were now open to things they would never consider doing, including killing anyone that got in their way. Nicholas was only sorry that the rest of the shipment of Ganderial crystals had been damaged in transit; he would love to have all hybrids under the control of Kivar.
Granolith Chamber, Roswell, Earlier that day
“Are you sure that’s what they had planned?” asked Liz
“Yeah, I mean it’s vague but from what I can remember the Skins showed up and used some weird stick thing to make all the humans disappear.” Max responded
“Well this should neutralise anything they could use that would have that effect and it should weaken any husk that comes within 20 miles of Roswell.” Liz said as she finished pushing buttons on the Granolith.
“Lets hope they have enough sense to stay away!” Max said, just then the Granolith buzzed into life and a blast of light came from it. “What the hell was that?”
Billboard, Just out side Roswell
“The device is ready for activation!” said Ida
“Very well, proceed,” said Greer.
Ida pressed on the remote and the green stick protruding from the billboard began to glow. A blast shot forth from it and headed toward Roswell but after a few seconds a beam of white light impacted the blast and sent it back toward the Skins.
“What’s happening?” said a very concerned Greer. Just then the Blast impacted the rod sending bolts of green electricity to the ground, impacting on all the Skins and turning them to dust. Just then Jim, Kyle and Tess came driving up, their fishing holiday over and looking forward to getting home. The only thing they saw was a bunch of people getting zapped by a green rod before it exploded.
The immediately recognised the remains as skin dust. “What just happened?” asked Jim
“Looks like Max’s plan worked, the Skins probably tried to mess with things again.” Said Tess.
Back in the Granolith Chamber
“Okay, well that settles it…the Skins have no sense!” joked Liz as she looked at Max.
To Be Continued…
Luigi’s Restaurant, Roswell, 19:00
Isabel: Alex had told her nothing of what to expect from their date tonight, nothing except to dress elegantly. So that’s what she did, she went through everything in her wardrobe before settling on her favourite dress (black silk, no back, down to her ankles and showing enough cleavage to be tasteful yet enough to drive Alex nuts) and fixed her hair to that it fell down and over her left shoulder, making her look sultry and as seductive as possible. She certainly drew a lot of attention that evening.
Alex: He himself was breathless when he picked her up, barely able to speak; he said, “You look great”. Isabel couldn’t help but blush at his reaction {mission successful} she thought. However, that was not the only reaction in the house, both her brother and father appeared behind her with their arms crossed and looked at Alex. Mr Evans raised one of his eyebrows and gave him a look that reminded him of his promise. Alex was dressed in a black suit, complete with tie…Mrs Evans couldn’t hold back any longer and pulled both teens into the living room and grabbed her camera.
Flashback~~~
Diane: She had seen her daughter prepare for this date all day yesterday and from when she returned from their work experience, A.K.A Copper Summit. Isabel was frantic, finding a dress then throwing it away, checking out another and another and another…eventually settling on the first. It was then that Diane sat her daughter down on her bed and had a chat with her; she had never seen Isabel prepare for any date like this.
“Isabel…Honey, relax. You are going to look beautiful.” Diane said in a soothing tone that wasn’t having much of an effect.
“Mom…Alex it going to be here in 2 hours…I’m no where near ready. I don’t even know what he has planned, all he said was dress elegant…I don’t wanna disappoint him!”
“Honey, I don’t think that’s possible. I don’t think I’ve see you like this before…what’s different about this date?” Diane was as curious as hell at what could get this reaction out of Isabel…and what she could do to encourage it. She loved it when Isabel smiled.
“Those weren’t dates…they were nights out…this is my first real date and I don’t want to mess it up…besides its with Alex!” Just mentioning his name brought a smile to her lips and it didn’t go unnoticed by her mother who also smiled. Diane couldn’t help but wonder what Alex had in store for Isabel this evening.
“Is…how serious is your relationship with Alex?”
“I love him mom…I can’t actually believe I just said that but I do. I can’t wait to see him and when I’m away from him my skin crawls, time goes by slowly and it feels like a piece of me is missing…” Isabel just went on and on, eventually she stopped and faced her mother who just watched her with a tear in her eye. Diane reached for her daughter and hugged her tightly.
“I happy for you Isabel but I want you to know that you can come to me with anything and I want you to promise me that the two of you wont do anything until your ready and that you’ll be careful.”
Isabel nodded, she didn’t want to disappoint her mother…not only had she and Alex been having sex but it was without protection. She knew she should have been using condoms…its not exactly like she could go on the pill but everything that had happened had been unexpected and very much a surprise.
“Okay now, lets get you ready for your boyfriend.” Said Diane as she helped her daughter to her feet and gathered makeup and hairspray.
End Flashback~~~
They had gone through ten snaps of the camera before Diane let them leave for their date. Alex had gone out of his way to be the gentlemen, opening the car door for her, pulling back her seat as she sat at the table; everything designed to entice the romance of the evening. He even arranged for a violinist to play by their table which was set with a single red rose and two red candles, their flames reflecting in Isabel’s moist eyes, drawing Alex’s gaze…the two of them simply staring at each other as they ate.
Alex took a drink of water and came to a decision; time to put the lessons his mother made him take to good use. He stood up and walked over to Isabel…
“May I have this dance?” He asked. Isabel’s smile widened and took his outreached hand. She stood and Alex led her to the dance floor, they were the only couple out there and they drew the attention of many others who soon followed them. Music began to play from the main band while the brightness of the lights lowered and a spotlight shone down from above them. Isabel thought that everything was perfect as Alex held her close.

Chapter 20
Pinecrest Psychiatric Hospital, Midnight
Laurie Dupree had been sleeping, the orderlies had doped her up to the eyeballs but she still gave them a run for their money. She never heard the window breaking and someone enter her private room but soon sprang wide-awake when she felt someone’s hand on her mouth. She squirmed around on the bed, kicking her legs in the vain attempt to hit something but as her attackers hand moved slightly, she bit down hard and drew some blood.
Grant let go suddenly; his eyes were dead to the world as though he wasn’t even thinking. The only time he blinked was when he heard the shilling scream of his would be victim as she crawled into a corner. It didn’t take long for someone to look into the door window, call for security and for the door to burst open.
The orderly went straight to the patient while the security officers faced off with the intruder holding their nightsticks threateningly in their hands.
“ON YOUR KNEES!” yelled one of the guards as he moved closer.
However, he didn’t get close enough as Grant grabbed hold of his shirt and threw him across the room, knocking him out immediately. The second guard rushed him; his club raised about his head read to strike but was net with the same force as his colleague. The orderly was afraid but suddenly Grant turned and jumped out of the window, running as fast as he could into the night and apparently unfazed by his three-story fall.
Grants Campsite, Fraser Woods, 3 hours later
Grant: It had happened again, he had fallen asleep in his tent and now he was lying outside and 10 feet away. At first he had put these blackouts down to sleepwalking but he then began to notice that his car was parked in different locations, items that he never owned but now in his position and tonight his fists were cut and covered in blood with small fragments of glass in his boots. He getting real tired of not knowing where he had been, what he had done and what was wrong with him. None of the doctors he had seen could explain it.
He loved being in control but this was taking it away from him, at least he had a plan worked out for dealing with Alex and getting Isabel into bed. He has to finish up his tests out here before he began that but he’s waited this long, another 4 days should be no problem. Thinking about having her brought a smile to his face and decided to try and go back to bed.
Outside Michael’s Apartment, 09:00 the Next Morning
The gang had gathered to see Michael and Maria off. Max had filled them in on the situation with Laurie; he just wished that he could remember who abducted her and how she fitted in with the Ganderium. However, he was content with simply getting her to safety and letting Michael get to know the girl he would consider his sister.
“Okay, you know what you doing?” enquired Max.
“For the hundredth time yes…we go to the records office and grab the files for Laurie’s estate, confront her uncle then get her out of the hospital and home. That it?” Said a very agitated Michael. How many times did he have to go through this, he knew the plan inside and out, given that this girl is probably the only biological family he has on Earth there was no way in hell he was going to mess this one up. He was nervous as hell but was glad the Maria was coming with him, her mother was getting very suspicious about their relationship and had organised some mother-daughter bonding time making it very difficult for him to get Maria alone.
“Come on Space boy, let go save the damsel in distress.” Maria said as she got into the car. Michael dumped their bags in the back and got into the drivers seat. The two drove off with everyone waving them goodbye.
Liz and Isabel then turned to Max, now it was their turn to do a job.
“Max, are you sure you want to do this?” asked Liz
“Yeah, we may not know what the guy is like but we have to help him if we can.” Responded Max. He knew he had to do something to help his double, whether he was like his sister and friend or not, Max had to try. At best he could succeed and have an ally and at worst an enemy who shares his face but that was irrelevant.
“What are you guys talking about…what should we know that we don’t know?” asked a very confused Tess. She knew that Kyle and herself had not been told everything and that much of what needed to be done was still locked in Max brain waiting for the correct time to come out but right now she could tell that something major was going on or was about to happen.
“Its part of what Future Liz told Max, a summit of Antarian leaders is about to happen in New York. It won’t happen unless either Max or his double Zan is there.” Isabel said as she looked to her shorter friend.
“Okay but what does this have to do with us, if the dupes are already in New York why don’t they go?” Kyle was equally as confused as Tess.
Liz turned to face her concerned friends and told them “The New York Max, Zan…he decided not to go so his sister Lonnie and Rath killed him or rather will kill him unless we send a warning. That’s what were gonna do now!”
With that Liz led the way up to Michaels apartment. Once inside Isabel tried a dream-walk but found his mind clouded and hazy…the only conclusion was that he was sleeping off a major hangover. Then Max and Tess both sent their power to Isabel hoping that she could at least find some sort of window…nothing.
“Wait a minute!” said Max, “The first time this was supposed to happen, Ava was with you two…she said that when I healed you, it changed you. Liz you could tip the balance here”
“Yeah but that was trying to contact you, you’re the one I have the connection with not Zan…wait…the soul thing!” Liz answered
“What soul thing?” That comment peaked Kyle’s curiosity. He had been sitting on the sidelines watching, trying not to interfere or distract his friends from the goal.
“Phoenix…he said that when he made me, the energy patterns inside me matched Max’s…” said Liz
“And since Zan is Max’s clone the pattern might be identical or at the very least similar enough to get a hit” Isabel said, excited at the possibility. She took both Liz and Max’s hands that in turn held on to Tess. All of them focused on Liz, sending the power to Isabel through her and that’s when it happened.
Dreamscape~~~~~
Zan was standing in his Pod Chamber facing Ava; she was sitting on the seat breast-feeding their son. It was a sight that gave him an overwhelming sense of completion, he was never more happier than he was at this moment. He slowly moved over to his young mate and ran his fingers through her hair while holding out his index finger to his son. The child’s small hand wrapped around it, causing smiles and tears of joy in both parents…
All of a sudden Ava and the child vanished, everything around him was melting away and was being replaced by a bright blue room with the Granolith in the centre. As he turned around he thought that he was looking into a mirror but soon realised it was the face of his clone, standing next to him was an unknown brunette.
“What’s happening here?” Zan said in a threatening New York tone.
“Zan, my name is Max Evans. I’m from the Roswell unit, this is my girlfriend Liz…the first thing you must understand is that this isn’t a dream. My sister Isabel is linking us through a dream-walk…second be careful of Lonnie and Rath, they will try to kill you because you don’t want to go to the Summit. Get Ava and get out of that city as fast as you can, it should happen soon unless you do as I ask.” It was then the Max began to fade and the shape of the room warp. “I don’t have much time Zan…get out of New York now.”
“How do you know this…Lonnie would never do anything to hurt me she’s my sister, neither would Rath…” Zan refused to accept what he was hearing, he had seen the changed in his family in the last month or so but they would never hurt him.
“Zan listen, I have information from the future. You will die…leave as soon as you can get Ava, please….” Max faded completely out.
Real world~~~~
All four woke up suddenly, Tess and Liz both felt exhausted and Tess asked, “Did it work?”
“He got the message, whether or not he listens is up to him!” said Max. He moved over to Liz and held her, “Thank you my love,” he whispered in her ear.
“I only hope this works out!” said Liz who hugged him in return.
Pod Chamber, New York
Zan woke with a start. His hangover was gone but he was left with the warnings from his dream…he couldn’t take any chances, he wanted…no he needed to protect Ava and if this Max Evans was right then she would be vulnerable without him.
Looking around he saw Ava resting on the sofa but no sign of the other two. He quickly shook Ava awake and pulled her out of the room and onto the main streets where they could hide in plain sight.
“Zan, what’s wrong?” she asked
“I had a dream, a warning from my dupe in Roswell. He said that Lonnie and Rath were going to try and kill me and that I had to get you and leave.”
“And you believe this?” she couldn’t believe what she was hearing. They had no idea if the dupes in Roswell could be trusted yet her lover appeared to be going on blind faith. Let alone the fact that she found it impossible that her friends would kill their leader.
“I can’t take the chance, I won’t take the chance of them hurting either one of us. We’ll head down there and talk to him and his unit…maybe get some answers!”
Ava nodded and pulled into a parking lot. They looked around for a decent car that wouldn’t draw attention and used their powers to make a clean getaway…next stop Roswell, New Mexico. Unfortunately unknown to them Nicholas had them watched and the Skin reported back to him. Within the hour another car was stolen and two more aliens headed south.
Maria’s Car, 285 South, 30 Minutes After Departure
Maria: She was enjoying this alone time with Michael, they were talking about nothing in particular but she was just happy being here with him. Unfortunately the temperature in the car was increasing and she was becoming hornier by the second, they had tried phone sex when it became apparent that her mother of on to them but that only provided the very briefest of reprieves.
“So, did you hear about Alex and Isabel’s date the other night?”
Michael: He was finding it difficult to concentrate on driving, out of the corner of his eye he could see that she was running his hand up and down her leg. The top she had decided to wear today was…revealing to say the least. Her cleavage as clearly visible and it was tight against her skin, extenuating the swell of her breasts.
“Yeah and here is me thinking that Max was the king of romance…nothing could have wiped that smile off her face.”
“I hope you took notes!” Maria said jokingly. She reached over to kiss him on the cheek but caught his lips when he turned his head. It was short but electric, the road was empty and Michael couldn’t take any more. He pulled off the main road and parked behind a large boulder.
Maria knew what he was wanting and slid over to straddle him, her legs extended into the back of the car. Michael wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her in close, pushing her crotch firmly against his erection that swelled in his jeans. She planted her hand on both sides of his face and pulled Michael in for a hard kiss while his hand reached up under her top and fondled her breasts, gently teasing her hard nipples.
Slowly the kiss ended and Michael pulled back and cupping her cheek with his hand he said, “I love you!”
Maria had a tear in her eye, not since he walked away from her after killing Pierce had he said those three words. “I love you too!” she responded. They came together for another kiss, gentler but no less passionate but Maria pulled away; she began to sense that something was worrying her scruffy boyfriend.
“Michael, what’s wrong?” she asked.
“I…I want…” he trailed off, blushing furiously and trying not to look into her eyes.
“What ever it is, you can tell me Michael…you don’t have to be embarrassed about anything” Maria said in a soothing tone as she brought his head up to face hers.
“I want to…take you from behind!” Michael said.
Maria grinned and suddenly her face became flushed, matching Michael. “So, feeling a little playful are we?” she said as she got off his lap and moved into the back of the car. Michael moved behind her and wrapped an arm round her stomach while the other brought her face round to his and into a searing kiss. His arm slowly moved upward, under her top and firmly latched on to her left breast. Maria moaned into his mouth as his fingertips teased the flesh that was left uncovered by her bra but the loudest moan came when Michael’s hand left her head and moved down to her crotch. Slowly he undid the button of her jeans and pulled down the zipper, slightly exposing her cotton panties.
Michael reached inside the soft fabric and cupped her womanhood. Maria jumped up slightly and began to grind her ass into Michael confined cock.
“God, you’re so wet Maria!” he sighed into her ear.
“For you baby, all for you.” Maria moaned as her hips began to grind involuntary against Michael’s hand. “Michael, please make me come.”
Slowly Michael stroked his fingers around her core, gently teasing the small bundle of nerves that were hidden by her velvety folds. “Tell me that you’re mine…Tell me that I’m the only one that can make you feel this way.”
Maria gasped as her lovers’ finger entered her, her hands reaching round and grabbed onto the sides of Michael’s thighs. She was desperate for the feel of his body on hers and right now the layers of clothing were impeding that contact.
“I…I’m yours Michael {pant}, every part…Unnngh…of me is…unnggghhh…yours. God, please give me…unnggghhhhh…ohhh…more. Michael…I love you!!” She howled. Michael’s finger now rapidly pushing into her as she pushed against his hard-on; he felt like he could come right there and then.
“Tell me Maria, say it…yell it for the world to hear.” Michael whispered as he bit into her earlobe with his hand still thrusting away.
“YESSSS, god damn it. Unnnnngh. You’re the only one Michael; I can only come for youuuu. You’re my mate, my life…Ugnnnnnnnnnnnnnn.”
Maria came furiously, he stomach muscles convulsed and her body shook. Michael felt her body become limp but he held on to her and never wanted to let her go…and by no means was he finished with her. He pushed her jeans down to her bent knees that were closely followed by her underwear. Michael undid the fastening to his own jeans and pulled out his hard cock.
Maria was still recovering from the intense bliss she had just received but could sense what Michael wanted. She grabbed onto the fabric of the back seat while tilting her hips upward to allow Michael access to her depths. He entered her with a slow, long stoke that was intended to drive her crazy and that’s what it did.
Michael looked down at her as she turned to face him over her shoulder. Her face was bright red, covered in sweat that had soaked her hair and caused it to stick to her body. Slowly he began to move, his hips thrust gently, sliding his cock in and out of her but gradually he began to increase his rhythm.
Maria arched her back, bringing her head up to the necessary height to kiss Michael. Soon he was pounding into her, each thrust was filled with electricity that nearly killed them both.
“God…Michael. I’m so close…don’t stop fucking me!” she was screaming, if anyone was outside the car they would have heard her. Thank god every one was driving on the road at fast speeds.
Maria knew that he to was close; she could feel it and Michael also knew. He could feel her walls tightening around him. His frantic pace increased, moving one of his hands from her hips he returned to her clit and pinched it. It was enough to send them both over the edge, Maria collapsed onto the back of the seat while she could feel Michael’s seed spurt deep inside her. Michael pulled out and lifted her back up into his arms, their eyes closed as he covered his hands with her own and a gentle green light began to emanate from them.
They quietly pulled their jeans back on; Maria got a fresh pair of panties and clean top from her overnight bag. They spent ten minutes with the doors open to lets the built up condensation leave the car and the windows to clear. Once set the two got back on the road and set out to help this mysterious girl called Laurie Dupree.
Valenti Residence, Same Day, 14:00
Max and Liz had spent the morning at Michael’s, they never left after the meeting earlier and had just spent the time making love. It was quite a surprise for Max to see what Liz was wearing under her clothes. A blue silk teddy that she had bought with Maria yesterday with the sole purpose of driving their men crazy…it worked.
Right now they put their loving aside to meet with Kyle and Tess. Their tone from earlier was a little disconcerting but they defiantly looked like they need to talk. Max knocked on the door and a half naked Kyle opened the door.
“Oh Max, Liz…is that the time…guess we got a little side tracked. One minute!” said Kyle as he closed the door and ran back inside. Max and Liz broke out into laughter as they heard Kyle and Tess running around inside the house.
Slowly Tess opened the door, her faced flushed and a smile on her lips.
“Hi guys, come on in.” She said, moving to the side to let them enter. Everyone sat down on the seats.
“Okay, so what’s so important that you need to talk?” asked Max
“Right, I think I’m turning into an alien!” Kyle said quickly. Max and Liz both blinked and stared at him.
“What?” they both said at once.
“When we were in Copper Summit, the back door to the Museum was locked. Then before I knew what was happening my hand glowed and the door unlocked, then I was drinking a glass of orange juice, I told Tess I wished that we had apple juice and it changed. Tess saw what happened and we did a little experimentation and I was able change the TV channel and the colour of my t-shirt.”
“Okay…so, this could be a problem!” said Max as he sat back against the seat
“Well maybe not!” said Liz, drawing that attention of her friends.
“What…I’m a human with alien powers, you don’t think this is a problem?” said Kyle. He was very agitated; Tess had readily accepted it and in part so had he. Since she found out it had brought them closer and they had a little bit more in common, she certainly seemed to enjoy their “training” lesson earlier.
“No because it means that there is one more person with powers to help stop Kivar and the Skins, but we should find out how it happened.” Liz said trying to reassure her ex.
“Okay well there is that.” Said Kyle as he tilted his head to the side and nodded.
“And on the ‘What caused it’ front, I think it might have to do when Max healed you.” Tess said.
“How does healing cause that?” Max asked as he stood up.
“I don’t know the specifics but Nasedo told me once that the healing requires a sharing of energy, some of that energy might have been left behind in Kyle…and in Liz too.” She said
“Okay, I think a little trip up to the Granolith could be in order” Liz responded
“Why?”
“It has a kind of medical scanner, it would be able to confirm any changes in any of us from the norm.” answered Max.
An hour later they were in the mountain, two beams of light scattering over both Kyle and Liz. When the energy dissipated Liz moved over to the Granolith and a display screen appeared in mid-air; it showed a number of readout all of which confused Max, Tess and Kyle but Liz just stood and gazed at it.
“Liz do you understand any of this?” asked Max, causing the others to turn and face her.
“Uh…yeah, I shouldn’t but I can, I can even read the Antarian. By the look of it, both Kyle and myself are now officially alien.” She said. “The alien energy has begum a part of us and as a result we’re nearly where you guys are…just without the D.N.A. differences.”
“Wait, so were still human?” asked Kyle
“Yep, well you are. I still have the D.N.A that Phoenix put in me before I was born…which is no longer dormant and is…very active…” Liz trailed off.
“What?” Max asked.
A giant smile came across Liz’s face but then she ducked her head and shook it from her face. “Nothing, I’ll tell you later okay.”
Max nodded, accepting that his mate would tell him when she was ready. Sooner or later she always did and it was the same with him. However, right now he was settled with the fact that Kyle was now even more apart of the group but still very much human. It was something that he could see in both his and Tess’s eyes that meant a great deal to them both.
Texas, That Night
Michael and Maria had gone to get the necessary records when they arrived in Laurie’s hometown but right now they were more concerned with getting into the hospital where she stayed. Max had told them that her initial reaction to Michael will be…stressful but that would pass.
Michael waved his hands across the wall and bricks started to protrude from it making it an easier climb to the third floor window. Once inside he quietly moved over to the door and melted the door shut, it would take them quite a while to get through his handy work. He turned back to face Maria who was now by the bed; as Michael nodded she slowly nudged her to wake her up.
The first thing Laurie saw was Michael – she freaked! Just as she was about to scream Maria jumped her and put her hand over the scared girls mouth, which was subsequently bitten.
“Bitch!” Maria said in a hushed yell as she shook her hand. “Ohh, ouch that hurts!”
“You’re dead…stay away. Get away from me!” screamed Laurie
“Laurie, I’m not your grandfather, I’m a friend. I am here to help you, to take you away from this place.” Just them Michael could here guards coming down the hallway. He held out his hand to his would-be sister and said, “Do you trust me?”
For a second she just looked into his eye as she tried to make her decision but something inside told her that it was okay and took his hand. Michael used his powers to get her out of the straight jacket that she had been placed in earlier when she wouldn’t calm down then took Maria’s hand and repaired the slight injury.
Once they were back outside, Michael removed his makeshift stairway and the three ran to the waiting car. They were gone before the outer guards of the hospital were informed. Unfortunately Laurie was still doped up and fell asleep in the backseat almost immediate…the adrenaline rush now gone. All Maria did was stare at her for a while; despite the bite she could tell she was going to like this girl. Their next stop was a motel where they would spend the evening before heading to Laurie’s.
To Be Continued…
Pinecrest Psychiatric Hospital, Midnight
Laurie Dupree had been sleeping, the orderlies had doped her up to the eyeballs but she still gave them a run for their money. She never heard the window breaking and someone enter her private room but soon sprang wide-awake when she felt someone’s hand on her mouth. She squirmed around on the bed, kicking her legs in the vain attempt to hit something but as her attackers hand moved slightly, she bit down hard and drew some blood.
Grant let go suddenly; his eyes were dead to the world as though he wasn’t even thinking. The only time he blinked was when he heard the shilling scream of his would be victim as she crawled into a corner. It didn’t take long for someone to look into the door window, call for security and for the door to burst open.
The orderly went straight to the patient while the security officers faced off with the intruder holding their nightsticks threateningly in their hands.
“ON YOUR KNEES!” yelled one of the guards as he moved closer.
However, he didn’t get close enough as Grant grabbed hold of his shirt and threw him across the room, knocking him out immediately. The second guard rushed him; his club raised about his head read to strike but was net with the same force as his colleague. The orderly was afraid but suddenly Grant turned and jumped out of the window, running as fast as he could into the night and apparently unfazed by his three-story fall.
Grants Campsite, Fraser Woods, 3 hours later
Grant: It had happened again, he had fallen asleep in his tent and now he was lying outside and 10 feet away. At first he had put these blackouts down to sleepwalking but he then began to notice that his car was parked in different locations, items that he never owned but now in his position and tonight his fists were cut and covered in blood with small fragments of glass in his boots. He getting real tired of not knowing where he had been, what he had done and what was wrong with him. None of the doctors he had seen could explain it.
He loved being in control but this was taking it away from him, at least he had a plan worked out for dealing with Alex and getting Isabel into bed. He has to finish up his tests out here before he began that but he’s waited this long, another 4 days should be no problem. Thinking about having her brought a smile to his face and decided to try and go back to bed.
Outside Michael’s Apartment, 09:00 the Next Morning
The gang had gathered to see Michael and Maria off. Max had filled them in on the situation with Laurie; he just wished that he could remember who abducted her and how she fitted in with the Ganderium. However, he was content with simply getting her to safety and letting Michael get to know the girl he would consider his sister.
“Okay, you know what you doing?” enquired Max.
“For the hundredth time yes…we go to the records office and grab the files for Laurie’s estate, confront her uncle then get her out of the hospital and home. That it?” Said a very agitated Michael. How many times did he have to go through this, he knew the plan inside and out, given that this girl is probably the only biological family he has on Earth there was no way in hell he was going to mess this one up. He was nervous as hell but was glad the Maria was coming with him, her mother was getting very suspicious about their relationship and had organised some mother-daughter bonding time making it very difficult for him to get Maria alone.
“Come on Space boy, let go save the damsel in distress.” Maria said as she got into the car. Michael dumped their bags in the back and got into the drivers seat. The two drove off with everyone waving them goodbye.
Liz and Isabel then turned to Max, now it was their turn to do a job.
“Max, are you sure you want to do this?” asked Liz
“Yeah, we may not know what the guy is like but we have to help him if we can.” Responded Max. He knew he had to do something to help his double, whether he was like his sister and friend or not, Max had to try. At best he could succeed and have an ally and at worst an enemy who shares his face but that was irrelevant.
“What are you guys talking about…what should we know that we don’t know?” asked a very confused Tess. She knew that Kyle and herself had not been told everything and that much of what needed to be done was still locked in Max brain waiting for the correct time to come out but right now she could tell that something major was going on or was about to happen.
“Its part of what Future Liz told Max, a summit of Antarian leaders is about to happen in New York. It won’t happen unless either Max or his double Zan is there.” Isabel said as she looked to her shorter friend.
“Okay but what does this have to do with us, if the dupes are already in New York why don’t they go?” Kyle was equally as confused as Tess.
Liz turned to face her concerned friends and told them “The New York Max, Zan…he decided not to go so his sister Lonnie and Rath killed him or rather will kill him unless we send a warning. That’s what were gonna do now!”
With that Liz led the way up to Michaels apartment. Once inside Isabel tried a dream-walk but found his mind clouded and hazy…the only conclusion was that he was sleeping off a major hangover. Then Max and Tess both sent their power to Isabel hoping that she could at least find some sort of window…nothing.
“Wait a minute!” said Max, “The first time this was supposed to happen, Ava was with you two…she said that when I healed you, it changed you. Liz you could tip the balance here”
“Yeah but that was trying to contact you, you’re the one I have the connection with not Zan…wait…the soul thing!” Liz answered
“What soul thing?” That comment peaked Kyle’s curiosity. He had been sitting on the sidelines watching, trying not to interfere or distract his friends from the goal.
“Phoenix…he said that when he made me, the energy patterns inside me matched Max’s…” said Liz
“And since Zan is Max’s clone the pattern might be identical or at the very least similar enough to get a hit” Isabel said, excited at the possibility. She took both Liz and Max’s hands that in turn held on to Tess. All of them focused on Liz, sending the power to Isabel through her and that’s when it happened.
Dreamscape~~~~~
Zan was standing in his Pod Chamber facing Ava; she was sitting on the seat breast-feeding their son. It was a sight that gave him an overwhelming sense of completion, he was never more happier than he was at this moment. He slowly moved over to his young mate and ran his fingers through her hair while holding out his index finger to his son. The child’s small hand wrapped around it, causing smiles and tears of joy in both parents…
All of a sudden Ava and the child vanished, everything around him was melting away and was being replaced by a bright blue room with the Granolith in the centre. As he turned around he thought that he was looking into a mirror but soon realised it was the face of his clone, standing next to him was an unknown brunette.
“What’s happening here?” Zan said in a threatening New York tone.
“Zan, my name is Max Evans. I’m from the Roswell unit, this is my girlfriend Liz…the first thing you must understand is that this isn’t a dream. My sister Isabel is linking us through a dream-walk…second be careful of Lonnie and Rath, they will try to kill you because you don’t want to go to the Summit. Get Ava and get out of that city as fast as you can, it should happen soon unless you do as I ask.” It was then the Max began to fade and the shape of the room warp. “I don’t have much time Zan…get out of New York now.”
“How do you know this…Lonnie would never do anything to hurt me she’s my sister, neither would Rath…” Zan refused to accept what he was hearing, he had seen the changed in his family in the last month or so but they would never hurt him.
“Zan listen, I have information from the future. You will die…leave as soon as you can get Ava, please….” Max faded completely out.
Real world~~~~
All four woke up suddenly, Tess and Liz both felt exhausted and Tess asked, “Did it work?”
“He got the message, whether or not he listens is up to him!” said Max. He moved over to Liz and held her, “Thank you my love,” he whispered in her ear.
“I only hope this works out!” said Liz who hugged him in return.
Pod Chamber, New York
Zan woke with a start. His hangover was gone but he was left with the warnings from his dream…he couldn’t take any chances, he wanted…no he needed to protect Ava and if this Max Evans was right then she would be vulnerable without him.
Looking around he saw Ava resting on the sofa but no sign of the other two. He quickly shook Ava awake and pulled her out of the room and onto the main streets where they could hide in plain sight.

“And on the ‘What caused it’ front, I think it might have to do when Max healed you.” Tess said.
“How does healing cause that?” Max asked as he stood up.
“I don’t know the specifics but Nasedo told me once that the healing requires a sharing of energy, some of that energy might have been left behind in Kyle…and in Liz too.” She said
“Okay, I think a little trip up to the Granolith could be in order” Liz responded
“Why?”
“It has a kind of medical scanner, it would be able to confirm any changes in any of us from the norm.” answered Max.
An hour later they were in the mountain, two beams of light scattering over both Kyle and Liz. When the energy dissipated Liz moved over to the Granolith and a display screen appeared in mid-air; it showed a number of readout all of which confused Max, Tess and Kyle but Liz just stood and gazed at it.
“Liz do you understand any of this?” asked Max, causing the others to turn and face her.
“Uh…yeah, I shouldn’t but I can, I can even read the Antarian. By the look of it, both Kyle and myself are now officially alien.” She said. “The alien energy has begum a part of us and as a result we’re nearly where you guys are…just without the D.N.A. differences.”
“Wait, so were still human?” asked Kyle
“Yep, well you are. I still have the D.N.A that Phoenix put in me before I was born…which is no longer dormant and is…very active…” Liz trailed off.
“What?” Max asked.
A giant smile came across Liz’s face but then she ducked her head and shook it from her face. “Nothing, I’ll tell you later okay.”
Max nodded, accepting that his mate would tell him when she was ready. Sooner or later she always did and it was the same with him. However, right now he was settled with the fact that Kyle was now even more apart of the group but still very much human. It was something that he could see in both his and Tess’s eyes that meant a great deal to them both.
Texas, That Night
Michael and Maria had gone to get the necessary records when they arrived in Laurie’s hometown but right now they were more concerned with getting into the hospital where she stayed. Max had told them that her initial reaction to Michael will be…stressful but that would pass.
Michael waved his hands across the wall and bricks started to protrude from it making it an easier climb to the third floor window. Once inside he quietly moved over to the door and melted the door shut, it would take them quite a while to get through his handy work. He turned back to face Maria who was now by the bed; as Michael nodded she slowly nudged her to wake her up.
The first thing Laurie saw was Michael – she freaked! Just as she was about to scream Maria jumped her and put her hand over the scared girls mouth, which was subsequently bitten.
“Bitch!” Maria said in a hushed yell as she shook her hand. “Ohh, ouch that hurts!”
“You’re dead…stay away. Get away from me!” screamed Laurie
“Laurie, I’m not your grandfather, I’m a friend. I am here to help you, to take you away from this place.” Just them Michael could here guards coming down the hallway. He held out his hand to his would-be sister and said, “Do you trust me?”
For a second she just looked into his eye as she tried to make her decision but something inside told her that it was okay and took his hand. Michael used his powers to get her out of the straight jacket that she had been placed in earlier when she wouldn’t calm down then took Maria’s hand and repaired the slight injury.
Once they were back outside, Michael removed his makeshift stairway and the three ran to the waiting car. They were gone before the outer guards of the hospital were informed. Unfortunately Laurie was still doped up and fell asleep in the backseat almost immediate…the adrenaline rush now gone. All Maria did was stare at her for a while; despite the bite she could tell she was going to like this girl. Their next stop was a motel where they would spend the evening before heading to Laurie’s.
