The Beginning of the End
Rating: MATURE to ADULT
Disclamir: I don't own Roswell or know any of the people who do and all that good stuff. But I do dream about it.
Summary: What if EOTW never happened and Liz agreed to go to the concert instead of refusing. Would the whole end of the world happen?
Or does this give them a chance to save the world with out the casultes?
Author's Note: This is my first attempt at regular fanfiction. So let me know what you think of the idea. I know the prologue is short. If enough people like it I will right more.
Prologue
Her long brown hair swirlded about her and he longed to run his hand through the silky layers. The thing was he couldn't and it killed him. She wasn't his. He watched as her chocolate eyes came to life and sparkled. His "king" walked up and kissed her lips with entesity. Oh to kiss those lips. He would and he would do that soon. No one was going to stop him. He smirked to himself. No the king believed he was dead and the only one to know definitly believed that he was on her side. Yes, his brilliant plot was going perfectly. She would be his. He would be unstoppable with Liz Parker by his side and there was nothing Max Evans could do to stop it.
Max felt as if he was being watched. Lately he had been getting that feeling alot. It didn't make sense. The special unit was disengaged and Nisado was dead. That left his enemys and Max knew that if they did know who he was the would strike. And it would be soon. That was what worried him the most. How could he protect everyone if he didn't know who he was trying to fight. He sighed at the thought.
"What's wrong, Max?" His dark eyed angel asked.
"I wish I knew, I wish I knew."
"I'm sure you'll figure it out."
"I hope you're right, Liz." She smiled up at him.
"You know I am!"
Kivar sat in his bed chamber. Soon he would have his queen and there was nothing that Zan could do about it. His plan was quite brillant but that wasn't all. The fact that they had the surprise in more ways than one benefited them greatly too. It was all too perfect. The secretes he had gotten from that stupid blonde bimbo before he had killed her in her last life provided to be greater in this. He was well pleased with himself.
"Guards." He watched as they entered in the room. "Prepare me a body on earth. I don't not trust our spy one bit and this is too important for him to screw up!" They nodded they're head and left. Soon he would be on earth woowing his little queen. With that thought he smiled. Soon he would have Liz Parker. Soon she would be the one.

On with my lovely story but first I want to thank you for your wonderful feedback it means alot so please continue to do so. Now on with the tale!
Chapter 1
The watcher gave up his station. It was time for him to go. Soon he would have Liz Parker as his own. He knew that Kivar would be angry when he found out that he had Liz and wouldn't give her up. But what would he do about it? Liz had the power that every one wanted to own and Kivar wouldn't be foolish enough to try against him with Liz in control. It was the most brilliant plan and it would succeed.
He got up leaving a tip and note on the table. Sooner or later they would find him but by than he would have the universe on their knees and there was nothing they could do about it. He smiled and began to whistle on his way out the door.
Liz began to clean up her tables. There were quite a few in the area. The first one being the one with the wierd guy. He avoid touching her but continued to watch her like Max use to.
Max, now there was another story. He had come to pick her up the night of the Gomez concert. It was then that he forced her to pay attention to him, to them. She was sure things would have gone to far if it wasn't for this feeling that it wasn't the right time and the promise of seeing Gomez in concert. She was glad she had let Max talk her into the concert. Things did at one point get a little out of control but they didn't go any where. Max didn't have any protection because he wasn't ready for that step yet. To put it lightly, neither was she. But at least now they were back together.
It was kind of complicated what happened next to there relationship. It was almost as if he started to treat her as broken glass, so carefully. Not that it bothered her all that much. It was just she had help break into the special unit she would think he wouldn't be acting like she would break at any moment but he was. In reality his special treatment did flatter her. It was almost like he couldn't believed she was there.
It was while deep in thought that her hand touch a piece of paper. She could tell it was a note left by the occupent clearly for her. That reminded her how much different Max was from any one else. If she hadn't have gotten shot, Max would still be sitting in a booth wishing for just a moment that he could really live. She stopped her thoughts from wondering too far again. It wasn't that she had nothing else to think of but she had Max on the brain. Nothing else seemed as important!
She was going to throw the note away but the title caught her eye. It was addressed 'to the queen of Antar.' Taking a look around she sat down in the booth still staring at the piece of paper. She worked on getting enough courage to open it. When she finally did she gasped and droped the note. Within a moment Max was at her side seeing the reaction that she had given from his seat not far away. He picked up the note of the ground and began to read it. This was not a good sign. He looked up at Liz trying to hide all his fear for her sake. This note might be the end of the world if he wasn't careful.
"I'll call the others. Then I'll go pick up Isabelle and we'll head over to Micheal's. We need to head straight over there when you get off. Do you understand?"
"Yes." He turned to go out the door. Then stopped and came back. His eyes that were filled with authority earlier were now full of consern.
"Don't worry, Liz. I won't let any thing happen to you." She nodded her head. "I'll come back and pick you up after I do what I have to. Do you want me to stay and call the other's from here?"
"No, I'll be fine." Max nodded than bent down and kissed her lips.
"I'll be back."
"I am counting on it." With that he left through the door.
"Ninty-seven, ninty-eight, ninty-nine, a hundred." Sweat rolled down Kyle's trim body. Every since he had found out about the alien abyss he was sucked into, he began training extra hard. With the amount of wierd stuff they delt with on a daily basis it was best to stay in shape. Who knew when the aliens would come knocking on his door.
Ironically, there was a knock at the door and el presidente, king of the aliens, himself was knocking. Kyle grabbed the towel he had set out and opened the door. He whipped the sweat off his brow.
"Hey, Max, um...My dad isn't here."
"That's alright. I am here to talk to you and Tess."
"Well, Tess is shopping." He stepped out of the door way. "Why don't you just come in?" He watched as Max walked passed him and took a seat on the couch. Kyle sat in one of the chairs.
"So how are you?"
" I'm fine and you?"
"Fine."
"Okay, not that I am not pleased you came to visit this fine afternoon but I am guessing this is not a social call is it?"
"You're right."
"Boy there is a first. Let me guess. The mother ship has landed and you are now going home? Or better yet you came to tell me there is an alien invasion and we are all going to die! Naw I'm betting you're going home. I am right aren't I?"
"Kyle, there is no alien invasion as of right now and there is no mother ship going home. We have called a meeting at Micheals and we think you should be there."
"Not that I am wanting to question anything but why in Budda's name do you want me there?"
"I only want to repeat this once so you'll have to wait til we get to Micheal's. Meet us there ASAP. Oh and try to get a hold of Tess."
"Yes, caption sir!" Kyle stud up and suluted Max. "One question, sir."
"Kyle, I..."
"Do I have time for a shower because if I am going to hear bad news I want to do it while being spring time fresh?"
"Kyle, why would I stop you?"
"I don't know. Maybe because you aliens like looking at me all sweaty?"
"For you're sake and my santy's sake I'll pretend like I never heard that." With that Max turned and walked out the door.
"Does that mean I can get naked and let water run all over me?" Kyle yelled after him. It was at that moment Sheriff Valenti choose to walk in.
"Son, is there something you want to tell me?" The sheriff asked as he stepped through the door.
"Nope, nothing that I can think of. Well, yeah there is."
"Yes?" The sheriff prompted.
"We're out of food. You may want to go to the store." With that Kyle left for the bathroom. The sheriff shoke his head at the retreating figure. If it wasn't for the fact that he knew how Kyle's mind worked, which was a scary thought, he would be worried. The sheriff thought for a moment. Maybe he should be worried anyway.
Tess pulled up to the hotel right outside of Roswell and parked her car and headed for room 203. Soon she would meet the person she was spose to have a meeting with here. She could hardly believe her luck. Just a little while longer and she would be queen of Antar and rule next to Kivar. Now all she had to do was descide if Max should be come her personal sex slave or die. Either way she would make Miss Perfect Parker watch Max's punishment before she recieved her end. That girl stole all that she had ever wanted but that was okay. Tess would recieve all that and more soon.
She opened the locked door with her powers and entered the dark room. Sitting in one of the chairs was the figure of the man she came her to meet. Her eyes looked percieingly at him.
"Is everything on schedule?"

Well here is the next chapter. I hope you like it. Thanks for all the feedback. It means alot to me. Oh and hopefully next week you will find out what is in the letter...If you're good! 
(You'll proably find out any way!)lol
Chapter 2
Micheal was barely awake when a fierce knocking started on his door. "Go away, no one is home." He grumbled. The knocking persisted, much to his dismay. "NO HABLO INGLES! NOW STOP, PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO SLEEP!" The knocking stopped but the sound of the door handle moving caused Micheal to relize he wasn't alone and one of his fellow aliens had come looking for him. He rolled over expecting to see Max and he wasn't disappointed. "Hi, Max. Fancy seeing you here."
"Get up, Micheal." He commanded.
"Oh, I'ld rather not. I enjoy the sleeping part of my exsistence and I am going to pretend this is a dream." With that he rolled over and got ready to go to sleep.
"Micheal, we have a problem."
"What now?"
"The skins I believe."
"The skins..."
"We are having a meeting here as soon as Liz gets off of work."
"Why are we involving them? It's too dangerous Maxwell."
"It's to dangerous not to." With that Max left the room leaving Micheal to wonder what was going on that would cause Max to be so into their enemies. Only one answer came to his mind, Liz.
Liz picked up the phone and dialed the number that was almost as familiar as her own face. It didn't take long for the person on the other end to pick up. She knew that Alex would be the smartest person to turn to. He wouldn't jump to any conclusions. As the phone started to ring she remembered that Alex wasn't home. Not long ago he went galavanting to some far off country. She hanged the phone up with every bit of furry she felt.
Now she was in the way of fire but no one would ever suspect that. No one would ever suspect that perfect Liz Parker would be in league with aliens to but she was. And some one did suspect whether human or alien that was unknown. Tears of frustration slid down her face. It didn't take long for some strong arms to wrap around her.
"Shh. It's okay." She turned and began to cry into their chest. She deserved this, some breaking down time and she was given this repreve. The strong hands began to stroke her back and hair. It didn't take her long to get all cried out. "Are you better now?" Liz nodded her head. He released her and took a step back.
"Sorry about that, but I needed it."
"It's fine."
"One question."
"Sure."
"Why are you all sweaty Kyle?"
"Cause your boy friend likes to look at me all sweaty." Liz just shock her head as she walked away from him to check her make up.
"I don't want to know."
"Sure you do. If you don't already know!" With that Kyle turned to leave. Neither one of them saw the figure lurking in the door way. Niether one saw the person's silent shock.
Maria sat outside Micheal's appartment building. It was becoming a ritual now. Ever since she saw Micheal with Courtney. Yes, he had tried to explain but that didn't help in any shape or form. All that had happened to her since the beginning of this was she had become a stalker. She stalked Micheal's every move. She watched every person that came and entered his apartment complex. To make it short she was obsessed.
Why, you may ask. The answer was simple. As much as she wanted to condemn Micheal for all the things that he had done, she couldn't. Something inside of her believed that Micheal didn't cheat on her no matter what she saw. Something believed that not everyone was like her father. Something believed that some one could actually love her and not walk away. The simple question was yet to be answered on her lips but she knew the answer. She loved Micheal with all her heart and soul. Maria Deluca loved him and for the simple fact of wanting to believe she was loveable she couldn't let go of him.
Max took that moment to make him appearance known. He stepped in front of her and looked at her as if looking through the facade she had put up. The truth was he knew what she was doing. He knew what Maria wanted. Maria and him were cut from the same cloth. They both loved deeply and had to believe in that love.
"Maria, why don't you go home and get some sleep?"
"What?"
"You look tired and I'll pick you up when we all come over to Micheal's for the meeting."
"What meeting?" She had barely gotten the question out when she saw him sigh. "Is everything alright?"
"Yes and no." He paused. "Just let me drive you home and I'll be back to pick you up after you take a quick nap." Maria nodded her head reluctantly. After the summer they had spent commiserating she knew Max well enough to know she would find nothing out about what he planned to say now. No, she would have to wait and goodness knows she could use some sleep. Spying got to be terribly hard.
Her mind went back to the last time she talked to Micheal. Well, it was more like argued. It was on the way to Copper Summet where the incontured the skins. She had believed him then about how he felt, until that blonde ageingless creap Courtney showed up. Then everything went down hill.
"There is nothing happening there, Maria." She looked at him sideways. It was as if he read her thoughts. "Courtney is to sick to do anything any way, even if they wanted to."
"That makes me feel so much better."
"I am sure it will when I tell you she is dieing."
"Yeah, that does."
"I thought it would." By that time they were at her house. "I'll pick you up in two hours." She nodded her head and Max left to do his last stop before returning to the Crash Down. That was home to tell Isabelle everything that had happened. It wouldn't take him long or at least he hoped so. So he put his car in drive and started home. Not noticing the car following him.
"Yes, Tess. Everything is on schedule. Soon that earth girl will be the least of your problems."
"You better be right."
"Oh, I am. I definitly am."
"Well, either way give me the update."
"Today I started the game of what you would call cat and mouse. Pretty soon I will go in for the kill. They have no idea what to expect."
"They better not."
"How can they? They think I am dead."
"And you better stay that way." In his head he rolled his eyes at Tess's naivety. Soon Liz really would be the least of her problems being that she would have her life to worry about. He refused the temptation to actually say that and thought of the pure energy he would recieve in the very near future, after he bound himself to that girl. If only his plan had been successful the first time. But it wasn't. All thanks to the idoit in front of him. Soon she would pay for it and soon he would hold the power mightier than any other.

Okay Here is Chapter three. I know it's been I while but I got really busy. I'ld tell you with what but then I would have to kill you so here is the next chapter. I would ask for more posts but I don't think that would do much so I will simply thank those who have left me posts. They mean alot to me.Now here we go!
Chapter 3
Hours had pasted and Liz's sift was over. She now sat on the sofa in Micheal's apartment between Max and Maria. They were waiting for Kyle to arrive. Liz had finally convinced him that he needed to go take a shower. She had had to tuned him out for the two hours he spent following her around the crash down. It was at the end of the sift when she had finally convinced him to get a shower.
"Go get a shower Kyle."
"I can't."
"Why not and don't say because my boyfriend likes to see you all sweat."
"Then I won't!"
"Kyle!" She opened the door to the Crashdown and pointed out the door.
"Do I have to?"
"Yes, now go."
"Fine!!" He grabbed his coat and left but not before starting to sing, "If it ain't gonna rain no more no more, If it ain't gonna rain no more, How in the heck will I wash my neck if it ain't gonna rain no more no more." Liz was thankful when she saw Kyle turn the corner to leave. She was finally rid of him.
Liz was pulled out of the past by the door to Micheal's apartment opening. Kyle walked in with Tess no where in sight. Liz was extatic. The brainless baboon was no where near her and that made it all good.
"You smell better." Max stated across the room to Kyle.
"Well, you know what they say," was Kyle's only reply.
"No we don't know, Budda worshiper. Please enlighten us." Micheal yelled across the room. He was still rather irratated that Max had woken him up before... Well he was just mad that Max woke him up!
"You know. You're not fully clean until you're ZEST fully clean." The whole room groaned.
"I make a motion that Kyle is from now on not allowed to talk. Does any one second that?" Micheal asked the room full of newly hearing impared.
"I second that, but don't let it go to you're head space boy. I still hate you with a burning passion."
"Like wise."
"GOOD!" Maria yelled at Micheal.
"GOOD!" Micheal yelled back.
"Quite!" Isabelle interupted them. "Will you two ever stop acting as children? And Kyle don't even think of opening your mouth again until it is approiate!" Kyle promptly closed his mouth which was fully ready to make a new remark. Isabelle took a deep breath. "Alright Max, I think we're ready to hear what you have to say."
"Alright, as you should know there has been what we believe to be an alien sighting."
"You mean, another one of you? Or another Nasado? Or a skin?" Maria asked. She was starting to lose her slim grip on reality. "Do you think there is going to be an invasion? Was any one hurt? Is Alex okay? If it's Tess you know I really don't care or I would be exstantic. Please tell me it's Tess."
"Maria." Max stated as he passed the container of cider oil Liz had given him to Maria. "Tess is alive and well as far as I know. And as for what or who... well we don't know. A letter was left for Liz at the Crashdown. As for Alex, as far as I know he is fine."
"AS FAR AS YOU KNOW? Well, excuse me fearless leader. You don't know much of anything do you?"
"Maria..." Liz was no sooner cut off by the aggravated Maria.
"No, don't you Maria me, Liz. He knows absolutly nothing. How can you believe him? He has put you in danger! He's put us all in danger. I am going to die young and a virgin. This soo can't be good."
"MARIA! Can you for once not take your anger out on some one else?" Liz asked. "I think we are safer with Max than with out." It was than Liz noticed the tears glistening in her eyes. Maria ran out of the room.
"I'll take..."
"No, Max. She's my best friend. I'll take care of it." Max nodded and Liz left the apartment in search of Maria. After Liz had cleared the room Kyle stud up. He went and sat down right next to Max. It was to the horror of the whole room when Kyle turned to Max and began to speak.
"Give me some sugar, sugar." Max rolled his eyes and stud up to get a drink.
"You know Kyle, some one might think you are gay one day," Max took a deep breath. "Or that I am because of your little games."
"Wow, you mean you aren't?"
"AAAAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!"
Liz walked out side to find Maria sitting on the steps. Something about it bothered Liz. Maria may be unable to control her feelings most of the time but she never had a blow out before.
"Maria, look I know that..."
"Don't, Liz."
"Don't what? I am trying to apoligize for being harsh in there. I don't regret saying what I said but I shouldn't have been like that. Why are you so mad at Max? He's doing all he can!"
"You wouldn't understand."
"Try me."
"Alright I will, but I am warning you, Liz. First my boyfriend cheats on me but not only that she is the enemy! Than I hear that the aliens are after my best friend. Why? Not even the King of the aliens can tell us! No comprendo! No gusta. Esta mal, muy mal."
"Maria you went into spanish again. Calm down. First off, I know you saw what you saw but do you really believe Micheal cheated on you? Especially with Courtney? Then there is that whole aliens after me thing. We've dealt with it before. It won't be the last time. Maria you're my best friend. I am sorry that you feel neglected."
"Forget about it. Let's go inside. I am sorry about this whole thing I over reacted. I'm not sleeping well."
"Micheal?"
"No, bad dreams. Something just bugs me in them."
"Oh, do you think they are checlozakian?"
"Naw, they aren't that wierd. I want to know about your alien secret admirer and what he said to you. Are you sure it's not just Max being all sentamental or something?" The two girls walked back to the apartment. Laughing and descusing Maria's "alien" dream and Liz's secrete admirer. Niether knowing how close they were to the truth.
Tess left her meeting smiling. It wouldn't be long for her dear old father figure to figure out a way to get Miss Parker out of the picture but now she had to play nice. That ment she had to pretend to be over him and she knew there was only one way to accomplish that. She needed a plan and a stupid humane to pretend to like. The best part of the plan was she had the perfect specimen right under the same roof as her. Kyle was a little loopy but other than that he was half way decent. She sighed. Pretending to be interested in Kyle it is. She just hoped his plan wouldn't take long. He was a complete screw up at these things and she had a feeling he would screw it up again.

Well I'm back. I have descided to continue it the way it is. Not because of lack of better ideas but because I have discussed the options at great lengths with a friend and my muse descided to build on what I have written. And Moonlight I do plan to finish all my stories. Even Sex, Lies, And Gerbiles. That one was just put on a back burn until I am finsihed with this. I hope no one is too mad at me for the wait and I love to hear feedback soo. Here is the next installement.
Chapter 4
They all sat in the room, knowing what was to come next and waiting for it to happen. Tension was thick and Max knew it was time that he revealed what they had found.
"A note was found as you all know. It was addressed to the queen of Antar. I was unable to translate any thing on the inside but what ever it is it shouldn't be taken lightly." Max started.
"Let me get this straight, some one is after Tess?" Maria questioned.
"It looks that way."
"Then why don't we just let 'em have her? What good is she doing us?"
"None," Max again replied to Maria's questions."But it would do more harm then good if we let them have her."
"Because they would know she means nothing to you." Isabelle broke in, "Then Liz is in danger."
"That's part of it, but also one hands something over to his enemy."
"Well, then we make Tess stay close." Micheal deduced.
"Not that simple. Tess, could do anything to get herself hurt. It's better off if we take care of this ourselves. We don't tell Tess and we keep a close eye on her. She is never out by herself. Got it?"
"Got it." They all chimed in.
"I get bathroom duty!" Kyle yelled a soon as that was finished.
"I didn't mean...Oh hell. No, Kyle." Max stated.
"Why noy?"
"Because I said so."
"You know I've alwaysed loved men in charge."
"Kyle..."
"You know, Max, if you wore a uniform you would be irresistable."
"Kyle, SHUT UP! You are driving me nuts."
"Good that means you can't forget me."
"Believe me Kyle I will never be that lucky."
Tess was on her way back to Roswell. With only a few minutes left to go she was a little nervous of her plans. She consoled herself by repeating in her head over and over again how she was the rightful queen. No, Sherle Appleton wanna be was going to take her place at Max's side. She would be the Bonni to his Clyde and nothing would stop her.
A twing hit her heart as her thoughts moved to Kyle. For a humane the boy was okay. If it wasn't for her destiny being born of the stars she might have been able to love him. Love, now that wasn't a word Tess heard often. Even though the thought that she could have one day loved Kyle scared her to death, she didn't dwell on it. Kyle and her weren't ment to be. Max was her destiny. She had excepted that from the moment she "hatched".
She put the car in park in front of the sheriff's house. Tess climbed out and headed for the door. It was at that moment she noticed Kyle. He stud there waiting for her. It was as if something had gone wrong. She slightly panaciced.
"Is everything alright? Is the Sheriff okay?" Tess nervously asked.
"Dad's fine and nothing is wrong."
"Oh, okay."
"So, what did you buy today?"
"Buy?"
"Yes, buy. You know that is usually what people do when they shop. Well, I guess some steal but that is the main point. I think I may be digressing or something like that. I never really understood those big words any way." Something struck Kyle as odd by that exchange. And it wasn't that he used the word digressing in a sentence. Even though that should have been enought to freak the noblest of creatures out.
"I basically window shopped. You know looking, no buying. I did buy lunch though."
"Kewl."
"You're the one that asked."
"I know." A long paused followed, until Kyle's stupidity once again followed. "You know Max's birthday is far away."
"Kyle, Max doesn't have a real birthday."
"Yeah but I wanna get him something special."
"Okay...I won't ask."
"Good, cause I won't tell."
"Does this have to do with the whole Max and..."
"Maybe, okay yes. It's just I feel like I should thank him. I look at things so much differently now. Budda says that we are clay yet to be molded or something like that." He paused again. "Let's go inside. I have the strangest feeling we are being watched." Tess nodded and they headed in. Little did they know Kyle's assumptions were correct. Some one was watching them very closely.
"What do you mean he missed a communication time?" Kivar yelled at his gaurds. Something was definitly not right with this picture.
"He never sent a report or replied to our requests for an update."
"You idoits! Why can't you do even this little thing right?" Kivar screached. "He is a shape shifter not an untrackable. Ugh I guess I will have to do this myself." He waved the gaurd away and he was left alone. Kivar turned on his monitors. The count down was beginning only forty more hours and a body would be at his disposel. He smiled the key would be his. It was time for him to rule the world.
He sat outside her window. He was so close he could touch her. But he wouldn't. It wasn't time yet. He breathed in the sent of her purfume and wished to all that could be real that he could touch her, taste her, own her soul as soon as possible. She was raw power. It thrilled him to no end.
The man touched a piece of the silk that lay on her pillow. It was soft, too soft for humane hair but that's when he had to remind himself she wasn't humane. She was energy in it rawest form. To own her would be to own more nuclear war heads than needed to bring distruction to the universe. Great power lay not far away from him and in her arms.
He smiled down at her beautiful figure. Not only would he become the most powerful being in all the universe he would have pleasure in doing it. She was not unwanted. Infact he would go as far to say he wanted more than he let on.
"Soon, my love, soon." With that he quitely slipped out the window and disappeared into the night. His lovely prey sleeped on. He went undetected. His promise would take place...soon.

Thanks for your feedback! Sorry this took so long but tis the busyiest season! So here you go. Chapter 5. Just remember to leave some feedback!
Chapter 5
Two long stranious weeks had past. Nothing else happened. It didn't take long for Max to beginn to wonder if Tess was the target or if she was just a distraction from the truth. But the question remained, what else could there be? That left only one choice. Unfortunally that choice made life difficult. What if they were trying to distract Max from some valueable information? Where would this information be?
Max reasoned it would have to be somewhere where he spent a great deal of time. That left only three prossibly four answers: school, the Crashdown, the UFO Center, and possibly home. That is why Max descided to stay behind the day Tess was scheduled to go check out the University. Max didn't ask Isabelle to go. She had been even more unnormal since there incounter with the skins. Kyle had a basketball game so he would be of no use. Micheal couldn't go. He was working and Maria was scheduled too. That left Liz, who be a stroke of fate, was off.
These thoughts were sworming in Liz's mind as she sat in the tension filled car with Tess. They were only a few minutes away from arrivel. Liz was so lost in her thoughts that she barely relized that Tess had taken a wrong turn or that the car was slowing down until they stopped.
"What's going on?"
"Nothing, really," Tess replied. "I thought I heard something rattleing in the back I just want to go check it out." Tess unbuckled and head back there. Liz followed Tess and quickly hopped out of the car.
A strange car pulled up and it didn't seem to worry Tess so Liz thought nothing of it. She just went back to checking the trunk. Then everything soon began to get hazy.
"Tess, I think something is wrong." With that comment she lost conscienceness.
"Is she dead?" Tess asked the man who had joined her.
"You know better than that." He replied haughtly. "We still need her. You remember? Or do I have to explain this again?"
"Oh, as long as I get to end my torment by ending her exsistence soon it doesn't matter to me."
"In that case don't worry." He promptly turned and picked up the unconscience girl. He bound her wrist and ankles leaving . Proceeding to gag her he looked at the blonde bimbo. "Don't forget to check on that stupid humane friend of yours."
"You mean, Alex?"
"Of course."
"Why do we need him to translate the books anyway."
"I don't speak Antarian or did you forget? Too many thoughts floating through that blonde head of yours? Not to worry, soon everything will be as it should be." He carried Liz to his vehicle. "I'll be in touch." With that he got in and drove off. Leaving Tess alone. It was time. She knew it and soon she would be queen of Antar again. It was only a matter of time now that Liz Parker was out of her way.
Sheriff Valenti pased by the phone in his house. Liz had promised to call and update him and Max as soon as they arrived on what was happening up there. He was a nervous wreck. Kyle, though, acted as if worring was not part of his actions. He just sat there watching his sport channel. It was driving him crazy.
"Hey, dad," Kyle said. "Do I need to ask Micheal for some alien weed to calm you down?"
"Kyle," he warned.
"I am sure they have some good stuff since ..."
"KYLE!" The Sheriff yelled. "Can you just let me worry in peace?"
"Why?"
"Because you're sister is MIA right now, as far as I am concerned. Liz is too responsible to miss a call like this. She should have called by now."
"That's all you and Max ever worry about. How Liz and Tess are. Did you guys forget that less than half a year ago I was shot and almost killed by my own father? No, no one cares how the Buddist is doing because well damn he found Budda. Well fuck you all."
"Kyle, I'm sor...."
"I don't want to hear it. I am running away to the circus to become a dancing bear." With that Kyle opened the door and slammed it. The Sherriff starred at the door for a good ten minutes before he spoke.
"Kyle, you do realize that is a closet right?"
"It is not a closet! It's the circus and my name is not Kyle any more. I am Loletta the dancing bear!"
"Kyle," a cough broke through the Sheriff's words."Loletta, if you come out from the closet I'll give you a cookie."
"A cookie? With sprinkles?"
"Of course. Only the best for my dancing bear." The door slowly opened. Kyle stepped out and stared at his dad. The Sheriff ushered him into the kitchean far away from the closet and handed him his cookie with sprinkles.
"Thanks dad."
"Any thing for you, Loletta."
"Dad you're odd. My name is Kyle."
Max fell back onto his bed. His head connected with something hard. It was a box and a letter. Some how he doubted what ever was in that box would alleviate the nervousness he felt knowing that Liz had yet to call him.
He opened the letter and began to read.
'Dearest Max,
With ever breath I take I love you. I am counting the days till we can be together again. You must know I love you with my entire soul. I lay awake at night thinking of your body next to mine.
Love Always,
Loletta the dancing bear.
"Kyle." Maz muttered beneath his breath. He opened the book only to find a picture of him and Liz. It was one taken not long after he healed her that day in the Crashdown. He turned the picture over. A message was scribbled on the back.
'At least that is what Liz would say. She'll be home soon. In the mean time can we have some fun? -Kyle'
Max let out an irratated sound just as Isabelle walked through the door.
"Sorry, I'll come back later."
"No, Issy it has nothing to do with you. I got a letter and a gift from an admire."
"Kyle?"
"Do I have any others?"
"Well, Liz and Tess but they are both out of town." Isabelle noticed Max's face dropping. "I bet she is fine."
"I know. I'm just worried."
"If you want to talk I am here."
"I thought that was my line."
"It might be, but it's my turn to use it."
"Fine but only as long as the reverse works for you."
"Agreed!"
Chapter 5
Two long stranious weeks had past. Nothing else happened. It didn't take long for Max to beginn to wonder if Tess was the target or if she was just a distraction from the truth. But the question remained, what else could there be? That left only one choice. Unfortunally that choice made life difficult. What if they were trying to distract Max from some valueable information? Where would this information be?
Max reasoned it would have to be somewhere where he spent a great deal of time. That left only three prossibly four answers: school, the Crashdown, the UFO Center, and possibly home. That is why Max descided to stay behind the day Tess was scheduled to go check out the University. Max didn't ask Isabelle to go. She had been even more unnormal since there incounter with the skins. Kyle had a basketball game so he would be of no use. Micheal couldn't go. He was working and Maria was scheduled too. That left Liz, who be a stroke of fate, was off.
These thoughts were sworming in Liz's mind as she sat in the tension filled car with Tess. They were only a few minutes away from arrivel. Liz was so lost in her thoughts that she barely relized that Tess had taken a wrong turn or that the car was slowing down until they stopped.
"What's going on?"
"Nothing, really," Tess replied. "I thought I heard something rattleing in the back I just want to go check it out." Tess unbuckled and head back there. Liz followed Tess and quickly hopped out of the car.
A strange car pulled up and it didn't seem to worry Tess so Liz thought nothing of it. She just went back to checking the trunk. Then everything soon began to get hazy.
"Tess, I think something is wrong." With that comment she lost conscienceness.
"Is she dead?" Tess asked the man who had joined her.
"You know better than that." He replied haughtly. "We still need her. You remember? Or do I have to explain this again?"
"Oh, as long as I get to end my torment by ending her exsistence soon it doesn't matter to me."
"In that case don't worry." He promptly turned and picked up the unconscience girl. He bound her wrist and ankles leaving . Proceeding to gag her he looked at the blonde bimbo. "Don't forget to check on that stupid humane friend of yours."
"You mean, Alex?"
"Of course."
"Why do we need him to translate the books anyway."
"I don't speak Antarian or did you forget? Too many thoughts floating through that blonde head of yours? Not to worry, soon everything will be as it should be." He carried Liz to his vehicle. "I'll be in touch." With that he got in and drove off. Leaving Tess alone. It was time. She knew it and soon she would be queen of Antar again. It was only a matter of time now that Liz Parker was out of her way.
Sheriff Valenti pased by the phone in his house. Liz had promised to call and update him and Max as soon as they arrived on what was happening up there. He was a nervous wreck. Kyle, though, acted as if worring was not part of his actions. He just sat there watching his sport channel. It was driving him crazy.
"Hey, dad," Kyle said. "Do I need to ask Micheal for some alien weed to calm you down?"
"Kyle," he warned.
"I am sure they have some good stuff since ..."
"KYLE!" The Sheriff yelled. "Can you just let me worry in peace?"
"Why?"
"Because you're sister is MIA right now, as far as I am concerned. Liz is too responsible to miss a call like this. She should have called by now."
"That's all you and Max ever worry about. How Liz and Tess are. Did you guys forget that less than half a year ago I was shot and almost killed by my own father? No, no one cares how the Buddist is doing because well damn he found Budda. Well fuck you all."
"Kyle, I'm sor...."
"I don't want to hear it. I am running away to the circus to become a dancing bear." With that Kyle opened the door and slammed it. The Sherriff starred at the door for a good ten minutes before he spoke.
"Kyle, you do realize that is a closet right?"
"It is not a closet! It's the circus and my name is not Kyle any more. I am Loletta the dancing bear!"
"Kyle," a cough broke through the Sheriff's words."Loletta, if you come out from the closet I'll give you a cookie."
"A cookie? With sprinkles?"
"Of course. Only the best for my dancing bear." The door slowly opened. Kyle stepped out and stared at his dad. The Sheriff ushered him into the kitchean far away from the closet and handed him his cookie with sprinkles.
"Thanks dad."
"Any thing for you, Loletta."
"Dad you're odd. My name is Kyle."
Max fell back onto his bed. His head connected with something hard. It was a box and a letter. Some how he doubted what ever was in that box would alleviate the nervousness he felt knowing that Liz had yet to call him.
He opened the letter and began to read.
'Dearest Max,
With ever breath I take I love you. I am counting the days till we can be together again. You must know I love you with my entire soul. I lay awake at night thinking of your body next to mine.
Love Always,
Loletta the dancing bear.
"Kyle." Maz muttered beneath his breath. He opened the book only to find a picture of him and Liz. It was one taken not long after he healed her that day in the Crashdown. He turned the picture over. A message was scribbled on the back.
'At least that is what Liz would say. She'll be home soon. In the mean time can we have some fun? -Kyle'
Max let out an irratated sound just as Isabelle walked through the door.
"Sorry, I'll come back later."
"No, Issy it has nothing to do with you. I got a letter and a gift from an admire."
"Kyle?"
"Do I have any others?"
"Well, Liz and Tess but they are both out of town." Isabelle noticed Max's face dropping. "I bet she is fine."
"I know. I'm just worried."
"If you want to talk I am here."
"I thought that was my line."
"It might be, but it's my turn to use it."
"Fine but only as long as the reverse works for you."
"Agreed!"
I never liked you any way and...and...and...you have stupid hair!

Merry Christmas to ALL! Just wanted to leave you all a little Christmas gift. Here is the next chapter and if you are in a Christmas mood you will leave me a little Christmas present in the way of feedback. Thank you who have so far left me some messages. I really enjoyed them. Now on with the show!
Chapter 6
"Kyle?" Isabelle asked walking into the room. "What's going on?"
"I think it's obvious."
"No, explain what you are doing in my brother's room and in his bed."
"Isabelle, Can't you see what is right infront of your nose?" Isabelle walked over and pulled the sheet down only to find Kyle lying in
Max's bed in a dress. Her dress to be exact.
"KYLE!!!!!! That's mine!"
"Oppse?"
"Get out now."
"Um...no."
"Do it or you'll die."
"You wouldn't kill your brother's lover would you?"
"Kyle, I am warning you. Get out of my brother's bed, out of my dress, and out of our house!"
"Geez, you are hostile because you can't have me. Max was right!"
"OUT!!!!!!!!!!!" Max choose that moment to walk into his room.
"OMG! Kyle, THAT'S MINE!!!"
"How very observant of you brother dearest. Now get your gay not so latin lover out of my dress or I'll kill both of you."
"No way."
"What?"
"We have no idea if he is wearing clothes under there and I don't trust Kyle enough to ask so you be a good girl and get him out of my room."
"No!"
"Max, I'm waiting for you."
"This can't get any worse." At that moment a door opened.
"I think it did. If you need me, Maxwell, I'll be in my room."
The Sheriff was busy running a trace on the vehical Liz and Tess were driving. Max had left not long ago after still hearing nothing from Liz. They had both agreed something was fishy about this but there was little they could do. Liz wasn't expected back til tomorrow and every one was sure Liz just forgot to call. They chalked all this up to the super computer up there. A science wiz like Liz would forget to call while looking at that stuff but something felt wrong. They had never checked into the hotel last night. That fact alone sent up red flags. There was also the fact that some one had saw two girls fitting that discription walk into that hotel last night then both turned to live when hearing the price of the rooms. Did this mean they simply switched hotels? Or was something evil at play?
Valentine wrote a quick note. It was only a few hours drive there and back to go check on them he could do it. That was the only way he could put everyone's mind at ease including his own.
Liz looked around the strange environment she found herself in. There was no mistake she difenitly wasn't where she should have been but at the same time she wasn't as scared as she thought she would be. Max by this time would know she was missing snd they had dealt with worse than this. Besides this was old hat considering she was obducted last year as well.
Deep in her mind she knew this one was different and that scared her. But what really scared her was the fact that Tess was no where in sight. Her fear was only for Tess. She had no idea where Tess was or what they were doing to her. She didn't even know who they were. All Liz knew that if her and Tess were separated it wasn't looking good for them. Especially with the psycho running around who is after Tess. Then it hit her. The psycho had them. It was now that the terror chose to grip her and she was scared. Scared beyong belief. She pushed down the fear and began to look around the room. Liz had to remain calm if she was to get out of here. The lay out of the room didn't say kidnapped victum. It said Ritz and Liz didn't believe that was where she was.
There was a queen sixed bed in one corner. It had a canapy and the bredspread was a lovely shade of light blue. Also in the room there was a desk with all kinds of books and places to write her thoughts. There were two dressers completely stocked with her size of clothes, even though that looked more like something Issabelle would wear. After checking the garments, she looked towards the oppisite wall and saw three doors. The first one was locked but the second led to a huge bathroom. Inside the bathroom was both a shower and a bath. There was the shampoo and soap she used as well as expensive bubble bath. Liz quickly shut that door and opened the next one. This one led to a kitchean which was stocked with food. She looked around realizing that the whole room was stalked to suit her. Her shampoo was there and her favorite kind of food. Even though she wouldn't normally wear that kind of clothes they were in her size. It was than she knew that who ever had kidnapped her had planned this. She wasn't a side note. She was the one they wanted and they wouldn't let go of her for along time. She was the queen of Antar and she was in deep trouble. She was also in the clutches of the psycho.
Tess looked around the room. She had had Alex living there for a long time trying to translate the book. It was now that she realized that she might not have to have him translate this under a mind warp. What if she simply used Liz as way to get it done? Of course that still left the problem on how she was going to concieve the heir to Antar. If she mind warpped Max into think she was Liz she could do it. But there was always their special connection. He would know in a moment that she wasn't who she said she was. That left the last option. Get Alex to translate the book using Liz as bait. Then she would make everyone believe Liz was dead only to get Max into her bed. Now it was time to get her plan into action.
She let go of the mind warp in Alex's head. Tears began to stream down her face. That acting class Nasato had made her take really was worth it. She brought him into the present. She mind warpped him into believing that he had met her here coming straight from Swedan in her hurried phone call. Tess made him believe that he was the only one that she trusted enough to help her. It was time for her to start with the desciption.
"Alex, what are we going to do?"
"Slow down, Tess. You have yet to tell me what happened. I can't help you until I know what the problem is and for that you have to tell me."
"They took Liz, Alex."
"What do you mean they took Liz? Who took Liz?"
"Kivar."
Micheal woke up. He could was coughing up hair but whose hair would he be coughing up? Maria's! The had fallen asleep on the couch after a late night movie. She was still peacefully sleeping. He kissed her head and sleep mumured in her ear, "I love you, Maria." Before falling back into a deep sleep.
It was for that reason alone he didn't see her smile. He also didn't hear her repeat back to him, "I love you, Micheal." But what him hearing it stop any way? Their whole life was about to change in a matter of days. Nothing was going to be the same. This was their last chance for a good while to find solance in each other's arms. It would be their last chance to with realizing all they ment to each other and how much they could lose. It was their last chance. But they didn't know this and Micheal slept on content to be where he felt at peace. There in Maria's arms.

Chapter 7
There was no way to tell how much time had passed since Liz had made her discovery. But it had seemed like days. She layed on the bed, fear gripping her. Liz couldn't help but feel the ending of this all. She had almost died last year and even now she could feel her life ozzing from her body. It was time. Death had been cheated once. This time it wouldn't be stopped that easily. Some how, whether a premincion or fate she knew death was near.
Suddenly, hope flickered into her morbid thoughts. The previously locked door had opened and standing in the threshold was the only one she had hoped to see one last time. As if time stood still he stood there looking at her like a man in the desert looks at water, with eyes full of disbelief. He moved carefully closer. It was as if he was waiting for her to vanish before his eyes.
"Liz," his voice chalked full of emotion said, "please tell me it's you. That I'm not dreaming." Unshed tears glistened in her eyes. In a weak voice she answered him.
"It's me, Max."
"Oh God." With that he closed the gap between them in a single step and pulled her into his arms. His mouth latched on to hers. Visions swirled around her head making her dizzy. Things she had never saw before haunted her.
She pushed against this invaders chest trying to release herself from his punishing kiss. He held her tight. The intruder begged her to open her mouth to him but she fought against him. Finally, he gave up in this battle of wills. He released his claim on her lips and allowed her to move her head away from his. But he did not reliquish the space between them.
"You're not Max." Her eyes accused.
"How ever did you guess, sweetheart?"
He resumed his pacing. Back and forth, back and forth, like a caged tiger. That's what he felt like. He felt trapped, helpless. Like a little boy. Max didn't want to feel like a little boy. It had been one trial after another today but he couldn't take much more. Yet, he knew there would be more to come.
Max's mind floated back to earlier today when Kyle had laid in his bed in Izzy's dress. After the front door had shut Kyle let out a high pitched scream and Max's mother came running. Diane Evans had returned home. The sight that she saw was not one any straight young man would want his mother to see. Any gay young man proably wouldn't either. With out a word Mrs. Evans turned and left her son's room. It was then Max was stuck. He didn't have any good options. Either he let his mother believe he was gay or he explain what happened to his parents. The only problem with that is there was so much that would be unbelievable. His parents would still believe he was gay.
Now, Max had to deal with that but that wasn't the reason for all his discomfort. Max was worried. Liz was still missing with no word. This was unlike Liz and there was soo much that could have happened. There were the skins and Kivar but he couldn't leave this house. Valenti had claimed it would be disasterous for Max to go to. There was so much that could go wrong and Valenti was convinced that more involvment on his part than needed would cause problems. The thing was Valenti was proably right.
A knock on the other side of the door broke Max from his thoughts. He took a deep breath and tried to sum up some courage for what he was about to face.
"Come in." The door opened and his mother stood there. She stepped inside and shut the door behind her.
"Max, is this what you couldn't tell me? Were you not able to tell me that you were...ga...ga...ga..."
"Gay, mom? And I'm..."
"Look, I don't love you any less. You are my son. Not even you being gay could turn me away from you. Nothing could. I love you."
"Would you like to test that theory?"
"What?" Diane asked in confusion.
"I'm not gay, Mom." Max sighed. "I like girls very much. Well, maybe not girls plural but I am attracted to the opposite sex."
"Then why was Kyle..."
"In Isabelle's dress lying in my bed?" Diane nodded her head. "I am still trying to figure that one out but I don't think I ever will."
"Max, it's okay if you were just experimenting. I know that these years are a hard time for teenagers. I won't even tell your father if you don't want me to. All that matters to me is that you are happy."
"You aren't getting it!" A knock sounded on her door and with out waiting for a reply Isabelle walked in.
"Max, the sh..." She stopped in mid sentence. "Oh, hi mom."
"Isabelle, thank God your here. Could you please tell mom that I'm not gay?"
"Why does she think you are?"
"She found Kyle right where you left him and now thinks that I am having a fling with the Sheriff's son." Isabelle stiffled a laugh. "Isabelle!"
"I'm sorry but you and Kyle? Gay together? That's too funny." She grasped her composer. "Max isn't gay, Mom. Kyle just wants Max or wants to give Max a hard time. Either way it's pretty funny. I enjoy watching Max grow uncomfortable every time Kyle hits on him."
"Isabelle, that's enough!" Max yelled mortified.
"Sorry," with a quick laugh she turned and left.
"Well, um....let's pretend this little talk never happened." With that Mrs. Evans left Max's room leaving him alone to dwell on the thougths of what could possibly be happening to Liz.
Kyle sat under a starry canvas. The wind blew his hair and tears ran down his face. He had known before he was crossing the line between humor and harassment but he couldn't stop. It was this feeling of not fitting in getting to him. He was dead. Not even a year ago he was dead. His father had accidently killed him with a stray bullet. Then Max Evans saved his life. Now he was making his a living hell. That wasn't the way it was spose to be.
He started to act like a goof ball because no matter how much they condemned him they were laughing. They were always too serious. Then Liz went MIA and he descided to take Max's mind off of missing Liz. But that backfired. He now had alienated the alien king. What was he to do now? Who else was he going to hurt?
They would be better off with out him but he couldn't bring himself to leave and never come back. He, now, knew of Max's extraordinary powers and would do all he could to protect him. For some strange reason Max inspired this in every person who knew his secret. But then again how could he not? He was just a teenager dealing with things a grown adult never would have to. Then again they all were. Max had the authority and pose to make a great king. It was no wonder why they had cloned him. Max was the perfect ruler.
He stud there looking at himself in the mirror. He gave himself a smirk before running his hands through his hair. This body would do nicely. It looked good enough to seduce her and he would be close enough to the "gang" to follow there every move. It was exactly what he wanted. This was perfect. This would getting him exactly what he wanted. He opened the door to the bathroom and walked out.
"Thanks, Aunt Amy."
"No problem Sean. You just work on turning your life around and you'll always have a place here."
"I knew I could count on you."
"Well, let's save the thanks til your cousin finds out your here."
"Is she mad at me?"
"Sean, you of all people should know the answer to that."
Thanks to all who left posts. As for Liz and the trouble she is in, well let's just say I hope this comes acrossed the way I tried to write it...confusing! So have a safe and happy New Year. I'm off to go celebrate! I wish you all the best of luck and may your year bring lots of happy surprises!~Roswell's Angel

His parents would still believe he was gay.
Now, Max had to deal with that but that wasn't the reason for all his discomfort. Max was worried. Liz was still missing with no word. This was unlike Liz and there was soo much that could have happened. There were the skins and Kivar but he couldn't leave this house. Valenti had claimed it would be disasterous for Max to go to. There was so much that could go wrong and Valenti was convinced that more involvment on his part than needed would cause problems. The thing was Valenti was proably right.
A knock on the other side of the door broke Max from his thoughts. He took a deep breath and tried to sum up some courage for what he was about to face.
"Come in." The door opened and his mother stood there. She stepped inside and shut the door behind her.
"Max, is this what you couldn't tell me? Were you not able to tell me that you were...ga...ga...ga..."
"Gay, mom? And I'm..."
"Look, I don't love you any less. You are my son. Not even you being gay could turn me away from you. Nothing could. I love you."
"Would you like to test that theory?"
"What?" Diane asked in confusion.
"I'm not gay, Mom." Max sighed. "I like girls very much. Well, maybe not girls plural but I am attracted to the opposite sex."
"Then why was Kyle..."
"In Isabelle's dress lying in my bed?" Diane nodded her head. "I am still trying to figure that one out but I don't think I ever will."
"Max, it's okay if you were just experimenting. I know that these years are a hard time for teenagers. I won't even tell your father if you don't want me to. All that matters to me is that you are happy."
"You aren't getting it!" A knock sounded on her door and with out waiting for a reply Isabelle walked in.
"Max, the sh..." She stopped in mid sentence. "Oh, hi mom."
"Isabelle, thank God your here. Could you please tell mom that I'm not gay?"
"Why does she think you are?"
"She found Kyle right where you left him and now thinks that I am having a fling with the Sheriff's son." Isabelle stiffled a laugh. "Isabelle!"
"I'm sorry but you and Kyle? Gay together? That's too funny." She grasped her composer. "Max isn't gay, Mom. Kyle just wants Max or wants to give Max a hard time. Either way it's pretty funny. I enjoy watching Max grow uncomfortable every time Kyle hits on him."
"Isabelle, that's enough!" Max yelled mortified.
"Sorry," with a quick laugh she turned and left.
"Well, um....let's pretend this little talk never happened." With that Mrs. Evans left Max's room leaving him alone to dwell on the thougths of what could possibly be happening to Liz.
Kyle sat under a starry canvas. The wind blew his hair and tears ran down his face. He had known before he was crossing the line between humor and harassment but he couldn't stop. It was this feeling of not fitting in getting to him. He was dead. Not even a year ago he was dead. His father had accidently killed him with a stray bullet. Then Max Evans saved his life. Now he was making his a living hell. That wasn't the way it was spose to be.
He started to act like a goof ball because no matter how much they condemned him they were laughing. They were always too serious. Then Liz went MIA and he descided to take Max's mind off of missing Liz. But that backfired. He now had alienated the alien king. What was he to do now? Who else was he going to hurt?
They would be better off with out him but he couldn't bring himself to leave and never come back. He, now, knew of Max's extraordinary powers and would do all he could to protect him. For some strange reason Max inspired this in every person who knew his secret. But then again how could he not? He was just a teenager dealing with things a grown adult never would have to. Then again they all were. Max had the authority and pose to make a great king. It was no wonder why they had cloned him. Max was the perfect ruler.
He stud there looking at himself in the mirror. He gave himself a smirk before running his hands through his hair. This body would do nicely. It looked good enough to seduce her and he would be close enough to the "gang" to follow there every move. It was exactly what he wanted. This was perfect. This would getting him exactly what he wanted. He opened the door to the bathroom and walked out.
"Thanks, Aunt Amy."
"No problem Sean. You just work on turning your life around and you'll always have a place here."
"I knew I could count on you."
"Well, let's save the thanks til your cousin finds out your here."
"Is she mad at me?"
"Sean, you of all people should know the answer to that."
I never liked you any way and...and...and...you have stupid hair!

Well hi again. Here is the next part but first I want to just thank you roswelluver for all your support. I really like reading your feedback. Now on with some explinations part one of chapter 8 is being posted tonight but it is shorter than usual because there will be a part B to this chapter. I also want to give a
WARNING This chapter is R bordering on NC-17 but it deals with rape so if you would like a summary instead of reading this chapter you can let me know and I will send you one if you leave me means to do so. Now on with the show.
Chapter 8 A
The Maxfaced creater drew back from Liz. He simply flicked his wrists and her clothes fell from her body. She was there in what would have been glorious nakedness if it weren't for the Max she was with not being her Max at all. Liz moved to hide herself but her arms wouldn't move. Who ever held had great power over her. But how and why she didn't know.
"Please, don't..." She pleaded.
"Don't what, my queen?" He threw back with a cruel snare. "You are mine and have no intention of not doing as I please. I own you now and there is nothing you can do about it."
"When Max finds you he'll kill you." She snarled back.
"You mean your little weaklen king?" He taunted. "He isn't worth the ground he walks on. All he is doing in Roswell is biding his time."
"Then why do you need me?"
"Oh, don't flatter yourself. I don't need you. Playing with the king's whore just simply amused me." Liz shuttered in fear but she kept her eyes in his. She wasn't going to let him see how much he scared her. All she needed to do was keep him talking long enough that he grew tired and did not finish what he had unfortuanly started.
"I think you do." She managed to say with more confidence then she felt.
"And why is that?" His eyes glistened with something that scared her. "Why would I need a whore like you? You would only ever be a good fuck to him. You might as well get more practice lying on your back." With that his whole deminor changed. "Well I grow tired of these games." With that he reached his hand down to touch her body. His hard unforgiving hands ruffly grabbed her breasts, pulling at them making them raw and sore. He continued this until Liz thought she would die from the pain. It was then that he moved on. It was then he let his hand wander to her hidden pastures. The place that was for no man except the willing gardener of her heart. He layed his hand there for but a second before he spit out a painful cry.
"YOU FUCKING BITCH. You are not queen yet. You really are worthless to me." He sighed. "No matter. I will simply find the king himself and make him finish what he has started. You will be queen, Elizabeth. Even if our king believes differently." He stood up and walked to the door. "Don't worry you little slut. I'll be back and when I come back your precious king will be with me. Don't worry. You'll see him one last time." With that he left, leaving Liz scared. Not for herself but for Max.
Tess had hardly walked in the door to her room when her private line rang. She picked it up.
"Tess," the other voice was her consperiater, "we have a change in plans."
"What is this change? Did the bitch get away?"
"No, but it might be safer if we had the king too."
"What for?" Tess asked. This was getting so confusing.
"Well, number one it will give us time. We can find away to make there parents believe they ran away together. Number two the others won't do what we want for Liz. But for Maxwell... You know this is the perfect way."
"What about my seductation?"
"There are other ways."
"Huh?"
"There are other ways to get with child then to have consentual sex with him. How blonde are you!"
"How dare you speak that way to your queen!" Tess was outraged and let her friend know it.
"I'm sorry your heighness but this is a delect situation and I'm going to need full corouporation." You could tell how he was fighting to regain control of this.
"I understand. You'll have your king." With that she hung up. She shook her head. "You will have your king, sitting high on a throne. I'm done with this. It's time to play my game."
Isabelle sat in her room. Things sure were getting funny. In a million years she never thought her parents woulld think Max was gay but then again if you didn't know the truth there were clues to give that impression. Oh, how she wished that she could tell them but then Max would never allow it. Then again maybe this Kyle incident would change this. But Isabelle doubted it.
No these thoughts Isabelle was allowing herself to chase were only servivng as a distraction. What she was really worried about was the sheriff's call. Something had aided a strain to Valenti's voice and that worried her. She always knew that the humans involved would get hurt and she was scared that they had just gotten the proof she needed. For some reason she couldn't bring herself to tell Max.
Maybe this was because of guilt. She had yet to tell Max about Valandra. Or maybe this was because as much as she was positive that this involved Liz, maybe it didn't. Maybe this was all in her head or maybe it wasn't she was so confused. All she knew was she would do whatever it took to keep the ones she loved from any kind of harm.
She looked out her windows into the stars. Since she was young she wondered which one was hers. Isabelle wasn't any closer to finding which star was hers. Maybe they were only good for what humanes claimed the were good for. If any thing it was worth a try.
"Star light," she started, "Star bright, first star I see tonight. I wish I may. I wish I might, have the wish I wish tonight. I wish... I wish that it turns out alright. That it all turns out alright." Isabelle turned away from the wind and slid down the wall. She sat there letting the tears fall down her face. "I wish for once there would be a happy ending to our story. I wish...I don't know what I wish. I just want this to work out. All I want is for what everyone else has. A chance at life, a chance to live life the way I want. Please, who ever is out there give me...us that chance."
"That was beautiful, Isabelle. Now tell me the truth."

Well my muse discided to help me out and not well shut up so here is the next chapter. I want to thank roswelluver again for the feedback. I would still appreciate all feedback scince this is only my second story ever written. Just drop me a post and let me know how I am doing! Thanks for reading. Now on with the show.
Chapter 8 B
Half asleep Micheal waked towards his door. The rapping kept up as if some vial thing couldn't get enough of it's tapping and rapping. Who ever this monster was, they deserved to die and Micheal would be the one to make sure of this. He opened the door to find a very distraught Kyle standing there.
"Kyle, what the hell are you doing here?"
"I'm scared." Kyle's voice was small as if he really was. Micheal didn't believe it for a moment.
"Of what?"
"Help me."
"Help you what?" Micheal sighed. "Okay, come in." He stepped aside to let Kyle in. Kyle was in his house in under 1.5 seconds. Infact Kyle was so far into Micheal's house that by the time Micheal located the intruder, he was asleep in Micheal's bed.
"This is just great I got Goldylocks in my bed like I'm one of the three little pigs or bears or what ever the heck they are." He stod there for a few minutes before he turned and left the room. "I'm getting out of here." With that he left his apartment and the ever annoying Kyle asleep in his bed.
"Who are you?" Isabelle asked. It was obvious that this man knew her but she could not place him.
"I'm Maria's cousin Sean. Well that's at least who I play on T.V. You may call me Kivar."
"No."
"No what, Princess?" He stepped into her room more fully. "Oh, I forgot. You want a normal life this time around. Not going to happen. But you will help me."
"Never. Why would I help the man who got me killed last time around?"
"Because he would expose your secret if you don't." He stepped closer to her. "That's right, Valendra, I'll tell them how you betrayed them last time. What would Max think of his sister then? I bet he would pick Liz over you then. Oh wait, he already has. How sad. You betrayed your brother in his last life and he abandons you in this life for a chance a true love." He snickered as he reached out a touched her face. "The truth is there is no true love is there, Valendra? Only lust and you learnt that the hard way. No, this time around you will be responsible for their down fall but not in the same way." He paused and looked at Isabelle. "You should be asking me questions, precious. Like where is Liz or what am I planning to do? Come on now is your time to explore."
"You have, Liz?"
"Not on me, no."
"What did you do with her?"
"I imagine that she is somewhere where she shouldn't be. Somewhere where none of us can find her easily but that's okay. She's safer there for the time being."
"You are scub."
"Perhaps but let's cut to the chase. We both want the pesky girl away from where she is now. The thing is we won't find her unless we work together as much as that pains me to say."
"I don't trust you."
"Your right you shouldn't trust me. I'm manipulative, a liar, and all you've got right now because by the time you pathetic little humane friends help your happy days gang to get it together it will be too late. He'll have either killed or something else equally as vial."
"Why do you want Liz?"
"I thought that one would have been easy. This is just a game to me and fucking your brother's whore amuses me. Especially when she will reject him to be with me. I could end things now but I always did like to play with my food. Now isn't an exception." He sighed. "I'll give you twenty four hours to think it over." With that he was gone as suddenly as he had came.
'Turn out the lights
Just say goodnight to yourself
May I remind you
When you find you
Are all alone is when you
You've got to be strong.'
The song played over and over again not only in his head but on the stereo system. Max couldn't take this waiting. Alien invasion he could handle. Being threaten by an U.F.O certified nut, he could handle. But this, this he couldn't. Liz was somewhere either safe in her bed right now or... He didn't want to think about the or. The or was not good. The or could be anything. He missed her.
'That's when they call you,
In the night
He's got you picture in his mind
He's got your number
On a paper
At his disposel, anytime'
Max clinged to his picture of Liz. This was one of his few possessions he could never do with out. All of a sudden splashes of water were on the pages. He was crying. He was crying and he couldn't stop. Max clung even harder to her image. It might be all he had left and that was a possibility he didn't want. But it was one he had.
'Is there any truth,
Could you save yourself
For someone who could love you for you
So many times we just give it away
To some who...
Some who...'
For a fleeting moment Max let himself believe that maybe Liz didn't contact him on purpose. Maybe she had found some one else. What if she had fallen in love at first site with some college boy at Las Crues? He couldn't let himself believe that but deep down he felt it was a possibility and with out the knowledge of where she was and what was happening he couldn't stop himself from slowly going insane.
'You met in a bar,
The back of a car
And for a moment you felt a pullin'
But not in your heart'
Then another thought floated into his head. It was just as disturbing as the other one. What if she had done something that she was ashamed of? What if she slept with some other guy? What then? It took him a moment to realize that he didn't care as much as he thought he did. Sure the idea hurt him and even made him mad. But she was humane of course she would be drawn to her own kind. Her own kind. What kind of garbage was that? Sure Max wasn't of this earth but there was nothing different about him except he had super powers. Well, okay that was a big difference and he couldn't blame her. Why would any one want a freak? Even if the freak was the desposed king of another planet. Surely not some one like Liz.
'Cause my self esteem
It's been low
Go ahead and count
It's been lower than low
I know the feeling
Of it stealing
Life out from under me'
Max echoed the words. "Stealing life out from under me," he mumured. "Is that what this is doing? Then why doen't they take it all at once?" He paused and then turned out the window. His voice was clear and crisp as he spoke this next words that would seal his already planned fate. "If you want my life so bad than just take it! I don't need to live if you plan to hurt the people I love to break me. No I'ld rather die again."
'Cause I want to learn
How you save yourself
For someone who could love you for you
So many times we just give it away
To some one who couldn't even remember your name'
"Maxwell, What the hell are you doing?" Micheal climbed into his window. Max stud up and walked to Micheal barely able to keep himself standing. He fell to his knees when he reached him.
'Could you save yourself
For some one who loves you for you
And loves me for me
Give it away to some one who
Some one who'll... cherish your name'
"What if she left me, Micheal?" He sobbed into his friend's chest. "What if she really left me? I have nothing to offer her. Oh God, what if she didn't leave me and something bad happened to her? This is all my fault."
'Cause I want to learn
How you save yourself
For someone who could love you for you
So many times we just give it away
To some one who couldn't even remember your name'
"Are you kidding me, Maxwell? Liz loves you. She would never leave you and as for bad things. Her car probly broke down on the high way. If that is true we will find what ever happened to her and save her. We've dealt with situations worse then what ever this is and we will deal with it again."
'Could you save yourself
For some one who loves you for you
And loves me for me
Give it away to some one who
Some one who'll... cherish your name'
Max didn't respond. Micheal did all he could and held his friend until his body gave out from the stress and the tears. Max was a sleep. Only then did he allow himself to think of how helpless he would feel if the tables were reverse. And that in it's self made him realize how strong a leader Max really was.
'Will cherish your name.'

Half asleep Micheal waked towards his door. The rapping kept up as if some vial thing couldn't get enough of it's tapping and rapping. Who ever this monster was, they deserved to die and Micheal would be the one to make sure of this. He opened the door to find a very distraught Kyle standing there.

"Who are you?" Isabelle asked. It was obvious that this man knew her but she could not place him.
"I'm Maria's cousin Sean. Well that's at least who I play on T.V. You may call me Kivar."
"No."
"No what, Princess?" He stepped into her room more fully. "Oh, I forgot. You want a normal life this time around. Not going to happen. But you will help me."
"Never. Why would I help the man who got me killed last time around?"

"I don't trust you."
"Your right you shouldn't trust me. I'm manipulative, a liar, and all you've got right now because by the time you pathetic little humane friends help your happy days gang to get it together it will be too late. He'll have either killed or something else equally as vial."

It took him a moment to realize that he didn't care as much as he thought he did. Sure the idea hurt him and even made him mad. But she was humane of course she would be drawn to her own kind. Her own kind. What kind of garbage was that? Sure Max wasn't of this earth but there was nothing different about him except he had super powers. Well, okay that was a big difference and he couldn't blame her. Why would any one want a freak? Even if the freak was the desposed king of another planet. Surely not some one like Liz.
'Cause my self esteem
It's been low
Go ahead and count
It's been lower than low
I know the feeling
Of it stealing
Life out from under me'
Max echoed the words. "Stealing life out from under me," he mumured. "Is that what this is doing? Then why doen't they take it all at once?" He paused and then turned out the window. His voice was clear and crisp as he spoke this next words that would seal his already planned fate. "If you want my life so bad than just take it! I don't need to live if you plan to hurt the people I love to break me. No I'ld rather die again."
'Cause I want to learn
How you save yourself
For someone who could love you for you
So many times we just give it away
To some one who couldn't even remember your name'
"Maxwell, What the hell are you doing?" Micheal climbed into his window. Max stud up and walked to Micheal barely able to keep himself standing. He fell to his knees when he reached him.
'Could you save yourself
For some one who loves you for you
And loves me for me
Give it away to some one who
Some one who'll... cherish your name'
"What if she left me, Micheal?" He sobbed into his friend's chest. "What if she really left me? I have nothing to offer her. Oh God, what if she didn't leave me and something bad happened to her? This is all my fault."
'Cause I want to learn
How you save yourself
For someone who could love you for you
So many times we just give it away
To some one who couldn't even remember your name'
"Are you kidding me, Maxwell? Liz loves you. She would never leave you and as for bad things. Her car probly broke down on the high way. If that is true we will find what ever happened to her and save her. We've dealt with situations worse then what ever this is and we will deal with it again."
'Could you save yourself
For some one who loves you for you
And loves me for me
Give it away to some one who
Some one who'll... cherish your name'
Max didn't respond. Micheal did all he could and held his friend until his body gave out from the stress and the tears. Max was a sleep. Only then did he allow himself to think of how helpless he would feel if the tables were reverse. And that in it's self made him realize how strong a leader Max really was.
'Will cherish your name.'
