Crashdown Cafe-

Elizabeth Parker was working late at her parents resturant that night. She had found herself working late a lot of nights lately since the incident with her ex-boyfriend.

Late last October, she recieved a visit from Future Max telling her that she needed to get Max to fall out of love with her. So, she pretended to sleep with Kyle Valenti knowing that Max Evans would catch her.

Now, things weren't the same between the two. Supposedly the two were suppose to have been happy and inseperable. After cementing they're relationship the night of the Gomez concert, Tess left Roswell due to them being together. 'Yeah, right...I wish I could make her leave.' Liz thought to herself. 'How immature is that, leave because you didn't get the guy you wanted...'

Snapping out of her thoughts when she heard her father calling she walked through the break room, "Yeah dad?"

"Listen, I was wondering if you could do me a favor?" Liz nodded. "I would usually do this myself, but I have to stay here and your mother is busy with the taxes and I have the inventory to get in..."

Liz smiled, "Dad what is it?"

He laughed, "I need you to go to Las Cruces for me to drop off some deliveries."

"What about school?" She asked confused.

Jeff thought for a second, "Well, it will just be a couple days, can you ask Maria to pick your work up for you?"

Liz shrugged, "Yeah, why not? I need a break." She said smiling.

"You sure you don't have anything important your going to miss, any test, exams?" Liz shook her head, "Okay, good, then I'll pack the car up in the morning and you should be back Friday evening."

"No prob..." Liz said shrugging before heading up the stairs.

Meanwhile Grant Sorenson and Isabel Evans were out on their movie date. Sitting in the movie theater, Isabel leaned closer to Grant as he put his arm around her. Smiling, she thought, Things couldn't get any better. Grant kissed the top of her head and turned back to the movie.

As Isabel got more comfortable she didn't relaize that she was drifting off to sleep. Trying desperately not to, she would shake her head but lose the fight. Knowing she had been having trouble sleeping with nightmares she didn't want to fall asleep in the movie theater, but the fight didn't last long.

NO!!! The girl screamed. You don't have to do this, please, I won't tell anyone. She screamed as she struggled to get free. Isabel watched in horror as the masked man taped her legs together.

Wait! Stop! Isabel tried to say. But to no avail.

Next came her arms and then he tossed her back to the ground, Please I beg you let me go! The man smiled beneath the mask. Oh god no!

Isabel placed a hand over her mouth as she watched him pull out a gun, NO!!!! STOP!!!!

BANG The man turned around as he heard a noise in the bushes. Quickly he kicked the body into the hole he had dug and buried her. NO! Isabel screamed but then realized she was out of her dream state.

"Are you okay?" Grant whispered realizing they were being starred at.

Isabel looked around, then back at Grant and nodded, "Yeah, it was just a dream, I must have fallen asleep."

"Yeah...you sure?" Grant said looking at her weird.

Isabel nodded trying to put on a smile, "Yeah, I'm fine." She said leaning back against him. "I'm fine."

Milla: No, the girl Isabel was dreaming about was someone else, it will be explained in the next part.

Thanks Cordyfan, Milla, roswellluver, youre my dreamgirl for your feedback this part is dedicated to you all!

Two Days Later-

Isabel was frantically tossing clothes about her room. Searching for the perfect outfit. Tossing another shirt in the air, she hit Max directly in the face, "Thanks, but pink isn't exactly my color." Max said smirking before throwing the shirt to the side.

Isabel turned to glare at him, "Max, nows not the time." She said hurrying to the closet again.

"It looks like a tornado flew through here...another date with Sorenson?" He asked raising an eyebrow. She nodded, "You sure you should be going out tonight?"

"Max not now, please don't start this again..." She pleaded pulling the shirt over her head.

"I just meant you haven't been getting much sleep lately." He explained stopping her.

She looked at him, "It's a different girl this time."

"What?"

"You know how I told you and Valenti that the girl I saw getting shot in my dream had dirty blonde hair and I think blue eyes..." Max nodded.

Flashback

"She was scared." Isabel said shaking as Max held her. He looked up at Valenti. "It felt so real. It was real. He killed her and just buried her."

"Did you see any clues as to where?" Valenti asked worriedly.

Isabel shook her head, "No, it was a woody area...that's all. There was lots of equipment around."

"He shot her?" Isabel nodded.

End of Flashback

"He's got someone different now." She said sitting down on the bed not looking at Max. "She's scared Max. I went to Valenti to tell him. He says no ones reported missing."

Sitting down next to her, "Did you see what she looked like?"

"Brown hair, about 5'1?" She said shrugging. "She had her back facing me."

"I'll call him, go talk to him. See what I can find out." He noticed Isabel was real quiet. "What? What is it?"

"I'm not good with cars but, she was headed to her car I think and he grabbed her, but I think she was driving a grey honda." Isabel said before getting interrupted by the doorbell.

"You better go, I'll get Michael and we'll check it out." Isabel hugged Max. "Be careful okay?"

"You too." She said before heading to Grant.

At the Crashdown-

Valenti was sitting at the counter waiting to get served when Jeff came through the break room door shaking his head. "Hey Jim, what can I get you?"

"Just a coffee to go." He said noticing the worry look on his face. "Everything okay?"

Jeff looked up from pouring the cup of coffee, "Yeah, it's just Nancy over reacting, you know?"

"Yeah..." Jim said smiling. Jim looked down at his pager that was going off. 'Meet us at your house in 20. M' "So, what's going on?"

"Oh, well, Liz was suppose to be back from Las Cruces two hours ago...and she isn't answering her cell." Jeff explained handing Jim his coffee, "And Nancy is just going stir crazy...I'm sure it's nothing."

"Yeah, she's probably just held up." Jim said nodding his head. "How much do I owe ya'?"

"On the house." He said before heading back to other customers.

At the Valenti house-

"Name was Laurie Dupree." Jim said throwing a file down on the table. "She was reported missing two days ago." Max picked the picture up.

"I don't recognize her." Max said shaking his head, "Micheal?" He shook his head.

"We still haven't found her body and it's likely that this is the girl Isabel saw..." Valenti shook his head.

Max looked over at him, "She says there's somebody else now. She has brown hair, about 5'1, could be driving a grey honda. She couldn't see alot of her she had her back to her in the dream."

"Grey honda?" Valenti asked worriedly. "Are you...are you sure?"

"Why?" Michael asked hearing his tone.

"It's just that..." Isabel came rushing in before Valenti could finish.

"It's Liz! He has Liz!" She said screaming. Max looked at them. His face white now.

"What? No, she's in Las Cruces." Max said calmly.

Valenti looked at the two, "Her dad said that she was suppose to be back two hours ago and that she's not picking up her cell, her parents drive a grey honda."

"That's not all, I know whose doing it." Isabel said glancing a look at the three.

"Who!" Max said angrily.

Michael came over to help Isabel to a seat, "It's Grant Sorenson." She said sobbing. "I was with him this entire time...and he was doing this to innocent girls...we have to stop him."

"We will, did you see where they would be?" Jim asked as he risked a glance over at Max who was looking out the window.

"It was dark out, he's at the same place, tons of equipment, um, there was this soily texture like, I don't know..."

Jim nodded, "I'll call it in, I should call the Parker's." He said heading into the kitchen.

"Dream walk her." Max said barely above a whisper.

"Maxwell..." Michael said shaking his head. "Don't!" Isabel looked between the two.

"It's are only chance. We couldn't with the other girl, we didn't know who she was...with Liz we do..." Taking a picture out of his wallet. "Isabel..."

She looked at the picture of the smiling Liz, "I'll do it."

A/N: Still looking for a beta and a banner designer! Any help would be great thanks again for all the wonderful feedback it encourages me to write more!

[BehrLuver04]

Isabel looked around the room she was in, "Liz?" She whispered. Quickly she turned around as she saw a shadow pass behind her. "Liz, is that you?"

"Max sent you didn't he?" Isabel spun her head around in shock. There was Liz sitting on some grass picking at a flower.

"Liz, no...yes, he did, but, we need to know if you saw anything that could tell us where you are?" She said looking her over for injuries.

Liz smiled, "You know what's funny...when he grabbed me..." She looked up and there was Grant. Isabel looked up and saw him. "I didn't feel any pain, but I knew he was doing something to me."

Isabel saw flashes of when he injected the needles of syrums into her and hit her on the back of her head. Then when she begged him to let her go and when she was buried next to Laurie Dupree. "Liz...please, did you see anything?"

"Don't you feel it? The energy just flowing through you?" Liz said getting happier. Isabel shook her head, "It's almost time."

"Almost time for what?" She asked confused and worried. Liz looked over at the trees causing Isabel to turn also, "Frazier Wodds." She whispered to herself when she saw a sign.

"It's almost time for me to go...to go on...good bye Isabel..." Liz said pushing her out of the dreamwalk.

"LIZ NO!!!" Isabel screamed but instead of Liz she was met with Max holding her.

"Isabel what is it?" Max said looking concerned.

Isabel shook her head choking on sobs, "We have to hurry..." She looked over at the Sheriff, "Frazier Woods, we don't have much time..."

Max and Michael exchanged looks, "Let's go."

Sheriff followed the two out while Max helped Isabel out to the car, "Max, we really need to hurry. She's really far gone." Max nodded before hopping into the jeep with Isabel and Michael with the Sheriff.

"Do you think Grant will be there?" Isabel asked worriedly.

Max's jaw tightened, "We'll deal if he is."

"Max, there was something weird about that dreamwalk. Something seriously wasn't right."

"What do you mean?" He asked looking at her.

Isabel looked out the window, "I've never been pushed out of a dreamwalk before, no one's had the power to do that."

Max looked straight ahead, "What do you think it means?"

"There was this energy she felt, something she was talking about. I couldn't feel anything different not until I started to fight her out of the dreamwalk." Isabel explained. "Do you think something changed her when you healed her?"

"I don't know...we need to concentrate on finding Liz first."

Meanwhile with Michael and Isabel, "How are we going to find her?" Michael said frustrated.

"I don't know we just have to pray and keep hoping we find some kind of clue." The sheriff said shaking his head.

Michael slammed his fist down, "That place is huge, we need more to go on...why didn't we see this sooner?"

"Michael, stop, we'll find her okay...just we have to stay positive." The sheriff said also trying to convince himself.

Part 4

"Okay, so now what?" Michael said breathing heavily looking around the forest.

Max's jaw tightened. "Split up. Michael go with Valenti. Stay alert, Grant could still be around." Valenti nodded and headed off with Michael while Isabel and Max headed off in a different direction. "Isabel do you recognize anything?"

Isabel shook her head, "No, everything looks the same, and the place we were in, it was really strange and blurry."

Max nodded, "Just...let's look around for something that might give us some kind of clue." Isabel nodded nervously.

Michael and Valenti carefully walked up the trail of the woods. Michael observed every little detail. "See anything yet?"

"Shhh!" Michael said walking a little bit ahead of Valenti. Valenti stopped in his tracks when he heard a movement in the path.

"You hear that?" He asked. "Michael?" Valenti turned around to find Michael gone.

"GET DOWN!" He heard Michael yell from somewhere. 'Bang'

"Did you hear that?" Isabel asked. Max nodded and ran off to the direction of the gun shot with Isabel hot on his trail.

"MICHAEL!" Max yelled. "SHERIFF?" He pushed his way through the woods but stopped when he heard Isabel yell back to him. "IZ?"

"Over here Max...." Max found her on the ground.

Max kneeled down to help her, "Come on, you okay?"

Isabel nodded, "I must have tripped over..." Isabel picked up the piece of so called wood she thought she tripped over. "Max, look."

Max looked down, "It's an oxygen tank." He said looking around spotting two of them hidden near some trees. "Come on, we gotta follow it."

"What about Michael and Valetni?" Isabel asked worriedly. Max looked back to where the gunshot was and where the tank was leading.

"We're fine." Michael said helping Valenti over. He had tripped over a log when trying to escape the gun shot.

Max rushed over to heal him, "What's going on?"

"It was Grant, he got away." Valenti said in pain but soon realized that he was healed, "Thanks."

"No prob, come on. We gotta lead." Max said taking off finally.

"MAX!" Isabel called before he disappeared. Michael soon followed after with Isabel and Valenti next to him. "MAX!"

Max ran as fast he could. He knew she was near by. Pulling the cord as he ran he knew it was just a matter of time before finding her. "Liz!" He yelled in hopes of something.

Fianlly he came to the end of the cord. He looked around and the rest of them caught up with him. "What is this?" Isabel asked looking around.

"It's a mole hill...." Valenti said looking around.

Putting the pieces together, "Start digging." Max said as he dropped to his hands and knees. Everybody quickly followed in the lead.

"Max, oh my god, she's down here." Isabel said coming to a plastic square case.

Max's heart clenched, "I see her." 'Bang' Max covered Isabel and Michael and Valenti ducked. Max soon jumped up putting his shield up. Michael did the same as Valenti and Isabel continued to work on getting out Liz. "When I count to three Michael."

Michael nodded, "Ready!"

"1, 2, 3!" Max dropped his shield and Micheal threw a power shot at Grant's position causing him to fly back. Max soon turned back to a coughing Liz to find her covered in a jacket.

Liz looked up bewildered, "GET AWAY FROM ME! YOUR DEAD! YOUR DEAD!" She said scooting farther away from Max.

Max looked at Liz, then at Isabel who shook her head, "Liz...I...I'm right here."

"NO, your some sort of skin or something...Isabel, he's dead, they killed him, it's a trick!" Liz said screaming at her trying to make her understand.

"Liz, it's okay, everything will be okay now..."Isabel said coming over to her.

Just then Liz starred at Max, "We're all going to die." She said before passing out. Max rushed to her side as Valenti called for an ambulance.

"How is she?" Max said as Isabel came out of her room from checking on Liz.

Isabel shook her head, "Not good. I think you should sit down Max." She said leading him to his bedroom.

"What is it?" He asked nervously.

"You know how she reacted to you, saying that you were dead?" Max nodded, "Well, I did some dreamwalking, appearently, Grant showed her something or did something to her."

"Like what?" Max asked confused.

"He has powers, he's like us but one of our enemies, he knew who we were this entire time Max. He mindwarped Liz, I guess, into believing that you were killed." Max shook his head in shock. "She watched you die by Nicholas's hands."

Max stood up slamming his hands down on the desk, "Damn it."

"I called Michael and explained what happened. Valenti put an APB out on Grant." Max nodded. "Max, when I was dreamwalking Liz, something was off."

"You told me that before..."

"I think she's sick...really sick." Isabel said.

Max slowly entered Isabel's room so not to disturb Liz. Slowly running his hands over Liz's body to check to see if anything was wrong, he came across what Isabel was talking about. Lookinq up he came eye to eye with Liz, "Who are you?" Liz asked nervously.

"It's me, Max." Max said sitting down next to her taking her hand.

Shaking her head, "I saw you die."

"No, Grant mindwarped you." He explained. "He was one of our enemies." Liz started crying, "Your parents think that your still missing Liz." Liz looked up shocked, "We didn't know what to tell them."

"What happened to me Max?" Liz said crying.

Max shook her head, "I don't know Liz, but Grant knew that I healed you and tried to use you to get to me. He grabbed another girl named Laurie Dupree, we still don't understand why...but there's something in your blood now Liz...Isabel recognized it when she dreamwalked you...I felt it when I..."

"I can feel it coursing through my blood." Liz said swallowing hard. "It's killing me slowly. I feel it."

"We need to figure what it is." Max said looking at her. "Michael and Valenti are out at where you were digging some samples seeing if there is any evidence or something..." Liz nodded. "I'm not going to let anything happen to you."

"You said that before." She whispered to herself before falling back asleep.

[BehrLuver04]

She woke up to hearing voices. Liz slowly sat up confused. She wasn't underground anymore. Her head wasn't hurting anymore either. "Hey chica." Maria said coming over to her side.

"Maria?" Liz said hoarsely.


"Max told me to tell you that he said he'll be back in an hour or so, he had to go talk to Valenti and Michael. Isabel and Alex are downstairs with Kyle and Tess." Maria said nervously. "Oh what the hell." She said throwing her hands up in the air.

The next thing Liz knew Maria was hugging her to the point she couldn't breath and Maria was crying and laughing at the same time, "Um Maria, I can't breath."

"Sorry, um, yeah...it's just I was so worried when I heard what happened about you."

Liz nodded, "Do my parents.."

"Got it covered...I told them that you just needed a break from the home front and that you decided to hang out at my house for awhile and you forgot to call and you would today." Maria said beaming happily.

"They believed that?" She asked doubtfully.

Maria shrugged, "Well, you know with little mindwarp and stuff..."

"Tess mindwarped them!" Liz asked upset.

"No!" Maria said holding up her hands in defense. "Isabel just kind of fixed something in their dreams, I'm real confused on it..."

"What's going on we heard screaming?" Isabel said coming up with Alex. Alex came over to sit next to Liz.

"Hey, how you doin' Parker?" He asked giving her a hug. "If you wanna scare us, jump out of a closet or something, huh?" Liz smiled a little.

"Liz, we need to talk..." Isabel said sitting in the computer chair. Liz looked worried. "Last night, you were saying some stuff...some really strange stuff."

"Do you have to ask her this now?" Maria said upset.

Liz shook her head, "No, it's okay, what did I say?"

Isabel looked at Alex and Maria, "You don't remember?" Liz shook her head, "Well, you told us that Max was dead, you saw him die and that everyone was going to die."

Liz paled, "He's alive, I saw him."

"Yeah, sweetie Max is alive." Just then Max came in to find Liz sitting up. "See..." Alex said looking at everyone.

"How, it can't be...you died in front of me." Max looked at her.

"It's okay Liz." Max said, "It was a mindwarp. Grant knew about us, he was one of Khivar's minions." He explained quickly.

"No, it can't be, I felt the blood and I heard you..." She started to sob.

"We'll just leave you..." Max nodded as Isabel and the other's went downstairs.

"Liz, look at me." Liz looked up, "I'm right here, I'm not going anywhere. Grant, he can't hurt you anymore."

"I was walking to my car...he came up behind me I guess and did something to me, next thing I know I'm laying tied up next to this girl..."

"It must have been Laurie Dupree." Max answered. "He must have thought she was you or something. He wanted you to get to me. I'm so sorry Liz..."

Liz nodded, "He shot her in cold blood not even caring...he burried her then, me next to her."

"Liz, god I can't..." Max held her close as she cried.

Meanwhile downstairs there was another problem arising. "What do you mean some kind of 'Parasite?' Tess said sarcastically.

"I mean it's an alien parasite from Antar used to infect any human who comes in contact with it according to Larek." Michael said explaining.

"Liz was buried in it so she's infected." Valenti explained, "The stuff was all over the location we found her at."

Kyle looked at his dad, "What about you?"

"No, I'm fine." He said patting Kyle on the back.

"It's probably what me and Max felt in Liz's blood." Isabel said standing up.

"What are the effects?" Alex asked concerned.

"Well, with Max healing her we don't know yet. She'll probably not have the parasite, Larek said with Max healing her his genes are in her and will probably help fight the..." Michael shrugging. "Something like that."

"Your a horrible messenger." Maria said shaking her head.

"Is this what's going to cause the end of the world?" Tess wondered looking around.

"Yeah, if we don't control it, the humans on Earth could be killed."

"Ah shit." Kyle said flopping back on the couch.

"Look all we have to do is get miss scientist up there to look at this stuff and figure out how to destroy it...no big deal." Michael said holding up a bag.

"You brought it here!" Kyle said upset. "What are you nuts?"

Michael looked at him, "Well, how else are we suppose to experiement with it?"

"I don't know, go there." Kyle said unaware he was babbling.

"She just got rescued from being kidnapped, Kyle." Maria said laughing at his antics, "Plus its not touching you or anything, you can't get infected. So breathe..."

"Check that out, Maria calming Valenti down, never thought I live to see the day." Michael said to Alex who just smirked.

"I heard that space boy." Maria said eyeing him.

"How are you feeling?" Isabel asked Liz as she looked over the specimen. Liz turned the computer chair around and looked up at Isabel.

"I'm hanging in...Max is being really..."Liz looked behind Isabel where he was talking to Valenti and smiled. "Max."

"I'm sorry you have to do this, I would have gotten somebody else, but your really the expert at all the science stuff..." Isabel stated. "I know you need to rest, but..."

Liz smiled shaking her head, "Don't worry about it, I wanna find out what this thing inside me is...and what is destroying the world." She mentioned.

Isabel smiled at her, "It's good to see you up and around."

While Isabel and Liz were talking Valenti and Max were having their own private conversation. "Michael and Maria went to the Parker's to get Liz's stuff and fill her parent's in about Liz's whereabouts." Jim told Max. Max just nodded his head. "Kyle took Tess home to rest..."

"Anything wrong?" He asked not really paying attention.

"She was complaining of a headache, although it was weird, didn't you guys say you don't get sick?"

"Yeah, something to do with our molecular structure." He explained to him. "Where's Alex?"

"He's at the library looking some infomation up on this parasite..." Max raised his eyebrow, "I think everyone's just a little nervous with it being here."

"Right."

"How's Liz doing?"

Max frowned, "She seems to be holding her own. I mean she's strong, I know that...but I'm worried, she won't let me in to let me see exactly what happened."

"Give her some time Max. She's been through alot."

"I know it's just, I feel like I let her down some how...I know I have and appereantly she has been some where that no one can help her get over." Max tried to say.

Jim placed a hand on Max's shoulder, "For as long as I've known Liz, she's had the brightest smile on her face...she's not going to let this get her down. She'll be able to move past this. If anything it will make her stronger, watch, you'll see."

Crashdown-

"Where is Lizzie!" Mr. Parker asked getting upset. Michael just smirked knowing that this wasn't going to work anymore.

Maria flinched at his tone, "Mr. Parker, you see...she's going through this rough time and just needs some time..."

"Away from home...she's only 17 years old." Jeff yelled getting upset shaking his head. "I want her home now Maria. She has school tomorrow...Where is she?"

"She's just spending some quality girl time with me...you know while my mom is going crazy..." Maria said looking at Michael for help.

Michael shook his head getting up, "The truth is Mr. P, Liz just had this big fight with my buddy Max and they're both pretty heart broken over it...but if you ask me your right they need to worry more about school then their love life."

"Michael..." Mr. Parker tried to interrupt him.

Maria watched on in amusment, "However, seeing my two friends like this, it just breaks my heart. So feels bad because she said some thing's to Max and Max said some thing's to Liz...that sort of thing you know?" Mr. Parker nodded. "She just needs some time with Maria to talk about the stupid fight she had with Max..."

Mr. Parker eyed him, "A fight with Max huh?"

"Relationships these days get more complicated everyday." Michael said rolling his eyes.

"I give it two days tops before they're googling eyes again." Michael said pretending to be sticking his finger down his throat.

"Alright, but tell her to call me and her mother." Mr. Parker said looking at her Maria who nodded. "Her mother is not going to like this one bit."

Maria looked at Michael, "Of course." Maria said shocked. "Um, I'll just grab some things for Liz and be on our way." Jeff laughed at the two before leading them upstairs.

Evans Household-

Max crept up behind Liz, "Hey."

"God, you scared me Max." Max smiled apologetically.

"Need any help?" Liz shook her head. "How you feeling?"

Liz stood up to come sit next to him on the bed. "Okay, hanging in there. How about you?"

Taking her hand, "Worrying about you...it's my fault your in this mess..." He admitted.

Liz shook her head, "No, Max, I had a choice to get out of this but I wanted to stay with you. Max...listen to me..." Max looked up at her, "I know that we aren't exactly what you say..."

"The perfect couple..."

"If you want to call us a couple." Liz said shrugging her shoulders, "And that's partly my fault."

"No, it's my fault Liz...with my alien heritage and with my destiny and everything..." Max said refusing to let Liz take the blame.

"Max, let me finish please." Max nodded, "I ran away from you that day in the cave, because I was afraid to lose you to Tess. Even though you said you didn't love her now, I was afraid you might remember her and get up and leave me one day for her. I couldn't take that Max." Max wiped a tear that was falling down her cheek, "I know it was selfish and I'm sorry. I wanted to be with you so bad and I almost caved with the serenade and the gomez tickets...everything you did...just wanted me to cave..."

Max looked at her confused, "Why didn't you?"

"I know you think that I...sl..slept with Ky...Kyle." Max looked away. "But it was a set up. I knew you were coming back to my balacony with the tickets, so I set it up to look like I slept with Kyle. All Kyle knew was that I wanted you to think that we slept together."

"But why...if...I don't understand Liz...if you hated me that much..."

"I never hated you Max, I loved you that much to let you go. I know it doesn't make any sense, but does our lives ever make any sense?" Max shook his head. "Here..." Holding out her hands. "Connect with me."

Max looked at her a moment, "Alright...just...take deep breaths...let your mind blank out." Liz nodded.

Flash

Older Max coming to her window scaring Liz. "I need you to help me fall out of love with you."

"Your some kind of shapeshifting alien that looks like Max with those grey hairs!"

Flash

"Fourteen years into the furture our enemies destroy us. Michael died in my arms and Isabel two weeks later." Max explained to her. "We transformed the granolith into a Time Transporter with the help of girl we become friends with name Serena."

Flash
"You have to try something else, nothing else is working Liz."

"I said no to gomez."

"You said no last time too. We don't go to the Gomez Concert. Because of me, Tess ends up leaving Roswell and without her we can't defeat our enemies."

Flash

"Do you know how hard that was for me. Telling you I wasn't willing to die for you. That I wasn't willing to have your children..."

Flash

"I saw Courtney in a towel at Michael's apartment." Maria cried to Liz causing her to get an idea.

Flash

"We leave the boxers on right?" Kyle yelled to Liz who was in the bathroom.

End of Flash

"No...it's a lie...it can't be, I wouldn't put you in that position." Max said backing away from Liz.

"Max, what...Max wait..." Liz said getting up to stop him. "I would do it again because it made us stronger!" She blurted out quickly.

"How can you say that?!" Max yelled causing Isabel and Valenti to come in.

"GET OUT!" Max yelled at them causing Liz to flinch. Isabel and Jim backed out. "God, all I do is wreck your life, Liz and you want to be with me?"

"Yes, I want to be with YOU! Now, here...in this moment, Max." Liz said trying to make him understand. "Don't you want to be with me?"

"Of course but I won't risk your life for my happiness." He said shaking his head.

"What does that mean?" She asked confused.

Max swallowed hard, "It means once we find out how to stop this parasite...I'm leaving...for good..."

"You can't leave Roswell, Max, this is your home..." Liz said rediculously.

"This isn't my home, I don't know where my home is anymore." Max said looking away from her.

A/N: Sorry I didn't get the part out yesterday I found out I had to work late...and well, that just sucked, lol.

"Liz!!!" Max called as Liz rushed down the stairs of the Evans house. "Liz, wait, please..."

Liz spun around to face Max with Isabel coming around the corner with Valenti. "Wait?! You want me to wait?"

"What's going on?" Isabel asked slowly noticing the two fighting.

Liz glarred at Max before shaking her head when he looked down, "Nothing, I gotta get out of here."

She flung open the door to find Alex and Brody about to knock, "Sorry, Alex."

"I got news, big news!" Alex said.

"What's going on? Brody?" Liz said seeing him in the shadows.

Larek shook his head, "I'm afraid not, Ms. Parker..."

"Larek..." Max said coming up behind Liz causing her to flinch, "What's going on?"

"I was at the library when I came across your para..." Just then Maria and Michael came rushing up along with Isabel and Valenti.

"I got a call from Alex here...do you have any idea how much you scared me?" Maria said hitting his arm.

"Ow!" Alex said.

"What's going on?" Michael asked ignoring the two.

"That's what I'd like to know." Isabel said.

"I was about to say, I came across an alien parasite in the library when you guys i..."

"What's going on, I gotta call from Larek!" Tess said rushing up the driveway with Kyle.

"For crying out loud, can I finish?" Alex said.

Larek smirked, "Perhaps we should take this inside?"

Max nodded, "Lets." Leading everyone inisde before looking around one last time. "Go ahead Alex."

"Like I was saying." Alex said glarring at everyone who interrupted him, "Oh, how are you feeling, Liz?"

Liz smiled, "Fine."

"Alex!" Michael snapped.

"Oh yeah." Alex said shaking his head. "I was at Roswell's public library, just researching some parasites when I did an advanced search doing some of Liz's symptoms...."

"My symptoms?" Liz said confused.

Max nodded wearily, "Fever, delirous, shivers, there's more, but..."

"Right." Liz said. "Go ahead."

"Anyhow, it came up with about two of them. That's when Larek showed up here. At first I thought it was Brody." Alex said.

"Sorry." Larek said. "When I heard about the parasite being on Earth and Ms. Elizabeth being infected I was greatly worried. For the world you know it is in danger. Liz however, with Max healing her can handle the parasite."

"I don't understand?" Isabel said confused. "What does Max healing her have to do with anything?"

"And where did this parasite come from?" Valenti asked.

"How bout how do we destroy it?" Kyle said smirking.

"Max changed Liz's molecular structure causing her to be able to handle the parasite. The parasite is only to infect humans, with Max healing her it caused a...gene to switch on..." Larek explained. "Liz is now more advanced."

"I'm like them now?" Liz asked Larek. Larek nodded causing Liz's eyes to widened.

"About the parasite, um..." Changing the subject for Liz. "You can destroy it by finding the queen and cutting off the oxygen. It needs oxygen and needs shade and loose soil to survive. Most likely it would be within a fifteen mile radius of where Liz and Laurie were buried." Alex explained.

"How did it get here?" Tess asked.

"By Grant...Khivar gave it to him, when he thought it would get to Zan." Larek explained. "Khivar found out that Zan loved a human, however didn't know..."

"He healed her..." Alex said raising an eyebrow.

Tess looked at Max who was looking at Liz, "Look um, I gotta get out of here, Maria can you take me home?"

"No...your parents think your staying with me." Maria said shaking her head.

"Fine, whatever...just get me out of here...call us when you have a plan for this parasite alright..." she said looking at Isabel who nodded confused. Maria followed Liz out to the jetta with an upset Liz.

Part 9

"So what's going on with you and Liz?" Michael asked as Max tied his hiking boots. Max stopped mid-tie before looking up.

"What do you mean?"

Michael shook his head, "Well, I just got an earful from Hurricane Deluca saying that Liz isn't saying anything to her but that it has to do with you."

Max went over to the kitchen table that contained the map of Frazier Woods, "I'm leaving Roswell."

"Yeah, and I'm going to Antar." Michael said sarcastically. "What do you mean your leaving Roswell?"

"After this parasite thing is solved, I'm leaving town." He explained leaning against the table.

Michael shook his head, "You can't just pick up and leave, another problem will just follow this one and we'll need you then too..."

"You'll be here...I'm no king...you always wanted to be in control here's your chance..." Max said shrugging.

"So your just giving up?" Michael asked glarring at him. "This sounds so screwed up. Shouldn't this be turned around."

"What?" Max asked confused.

"Shouldn't I be the one saying I'm leaving, because I usually am, man and here you are abandoning us, what's with the sudden change?" Michael asked angrily.

"It's not safe for me to be here. If I stay I put the people I love in danger. I can't afford to do that Michael." Max said looking away.

"So your willing to cause pain yourself." Max looked up at his words. "That makes more sense." Michael said sarcastically before turning around to leave to brush past Isabel who was standing behind him.

"Iz...how...what did you hear?"

Meanwhile at Frazier woods Maria and Liz were waiting for the others to arrive. They had got a call from Michael saying that they had got an idea as to where the parasite would be and what to do. As they got out of the car Kyle, Tess and Jim drove up behind the jetta. "Where's the other's?"

"They're coming. Alex had to run home and change and then head back to pick Isabel up." Tess explained looking around.

Liz nodded, "So what's the plan?"

"Larek said it needed loose soil and shade for the queen. Well, where you were it was crawling with the parasite but not the host. The host should be within a five mile radius." Jim explained.

"He means we should split up." Kyle shortened it for him. "An alien a person..."he joked earning a slap from Tess. "OW!

"Hey, guys....sorry we're late." Isabel said coming over with Alex. "Um, I had to talk to Max. He's right behind us."

Max and Michael walked up with maps and flashlights. Jim handed everybody a shovel as Michael passed out the maps and flashlights. "Okay, we split up. Each map has circled location. That's the place you look. If you find anything call on the cell." Max ordered.

"Maria and Michael go to site 1." Jim said looking down at the map. Maria and Michael headed off for the direction. "How about me, Kyle and Tess take site 2 and 3...there not far from each other."

"Good idea." Max said. "Just watch your backs...Grant could still be around." They nodded and headed to the location.

"I'm with Isabel right?" Liz said looking at Max.

Isabel looked at Alex, "No, me and Alex have site four and you and Max have site five."

Liz groaned. "Fine, lets get this over with." She said heading off without Max.

"Sounds like your going to have fun." Alex joked with Max who just followed her.

Trying to catch up with Liz, "Liz will you wait a second." He called after her. Max desperately wanted to talk to her to try to make her understand his side.

"What?" She snapped turning around.

Max looked at her a moment before speaking, "I just wanted us to talk."

"We don't have time to talk. If we don't destroy the queen then the whole human race is destroyed." Liz said getting annoyed. "Plus, I don't think there's anything to talk about." She said continuing to the site.

When getting there she looked around for some clues as to where the queen might be, "I think we do!" Max said grabbing her arm and turning her to face him.

Meanwhile while Michael and Maria were looking they got a call from Isabel and Alex confirming there was nothing at there site so they were headed over to help Tess, Kyle and Valenti. "Find anything yet?"

"I found some of the parasite but it's not the queen." Michael said.

Maria leaned against her shovel, "How do we know when its the queen, I mean what if it is the queen?"

"Trust me, its not the queen. The queen is like a bunch of crystals together. Blue, pulsing, bright..."

"How do you know all this?" Maria asked wondering how he got so smart.

Michael shrugged digging out his cell getting ready to call Max, "I read up on some of the research Alex mentioned to Larek."

"Spaceboy, you surprise me more and more."

Michael smirked, "Tell me about it, I was giving Max advice this evening."

"You?"

The sound of the cell phone interrupted them, "Yeah?" Michael said. "No nothing, here. We found some of the parasite but it's not the queen. Is Iz there with you. She said that nothing was there...the parasite couldn't grow there."

"Yeah, has Valenti found anything." Michael nodded, "Just some of the parasite growing. Tell him, not to touch it. Good." Maria's cell phone caused him to look up.

"Hello?" Maria said. "Liz is that you...Liz...I can't hear you...your where...oh my god...what!!!!!"

Part 10

"Liz calm down..." Maria tried to tell her. Meanwhile, Michael was trying to get Isabel to hush to listen to what Maria was saying, "Liz, where...I can't hear you. Your breaking up...Liz...your where? Liz, hello?" Maria looked at her phone.

"What happened?" Michael asked firmly still not listening to Isabel over the phone. 'Hello! I'm still on the phone!'

Maria looked up and hung up her phone, "Come on, tell Isabel we're coming to get them."

"Will you please tell me what happened for Christ sakes?" Michael asked upset as he hung up his phone.

Maria shook her head leading Michael out towards where Isabel and the others were, "I don't know...all I heard was her and Max were somwhere, stuck, not be long, hurry, pulsing...then the line went dead."

Michael stopped in his tracks, "I didn't want to know about his sex life."

"Maria! Michael! What the hell is going on?" Isabel said angrily. "Don't you know not to leave a person hanging on the line like that?"

"Max and Liz are having sex." Michael calmly said.

"WHAT?" Tess said shocked while Kyle laughed.

Isabel groaned, "Gross Michael...he's my brother..."

"What do you mean they're having sex?" Alex asked confused.

"Oh you know the wild monkey dance, the horzintal..." Michael said gesturing. "Don't worry you might get to experience it one day." Michael said slapping his shoulder.

Maria slapped his arm, "You idot! They're not having sex!"

"How do you know this for a fact?" Michael asked.

Isabel rolled her eyes, "What happened exactly?" Jim asked shaking his head.

"I got a call from Liz, she was upset, all I know is that her and Max are together...but I didn't get much." Maria explained. "The phone got cut off."

"Did you try Max's phone?" Kyle asked as they started to walk off.

Isabel nodded, "When Michael wouldn't answer me, Tess tried it. He wouldn't answer..."

Meanwhile Liz and Max were stuck in the hole of the pulsing virsus. They were arguing when Liz took off and Max went after her. Not watching where they were going they fell right into it causing the queen to close above them. Max tried to use his powers to get out but it was useless.

"This is useless." Liz said geting frustrated. "I can't believe my luck." She said flopping down on the ground.

Max sighed and came to sit next to her, "They'll find us soon."

"Do you realize how big this area is?" Liz asked raising her eyebrow.

Max nodded, "But...maybe this will give us a chance to talk." Liz shook her head, "Liz....I don't want to leave with you mad at me....I'm not leaving for good, just until things are safe."

"So you might as well say for good. Max how can you ask me not to be mad?" Liz said angrily. "I wanna be with you and here you are leaving town."

"If I stay, you could get killed." He said looking away.

She laughed, "I could have been killed a long time ago Max."

"All the more reason for me to leave." Liz swallowed hard before rising up on her knees.

Placing her finger under his chin to make him look at her, "I can't say that I haven't suffered both emotional and physical pain because of knowing you" Causing Max to flinch "No, Max listen, I may have even lost out on a lot of things, like my parents trust, certain friends, or even the way teachers look at me..."

"I know this Liz...that's why I'm leaving you!" He yelled.

Liz shook her head, "I don't care about that any more, I realized last month when everything happened, that I want to be with you. You have showed me so much happiness in my life....that the pain and loss has been buried, burned...my life has become so much more thanks to you...Max." She explained. "I don't care what happenes in the next five minutes or the next five years...I just want to be with you."

"Liz...don't..." Cutting him off with a kiss. Refusing at first but reluctanly he returned the kiss. Framing her face with his hands, Liz's hands went around his neck.

"Where could they be?" Isabel asked as they looked around the area Max and Liz were supposed to look.

Michael shook his head, "I don't know, they had the biggest area."

"We need to look for some clues...this was the area Liz and Lauriee were buried in so maybe their around there." Jim added.

"Could be...what about dreamwalking them..." Tess suggested.

Isabel shook her head, "I can only do it if they're asleep."

"You did it to Max and Liz before." Maria said confused.

"They were drugged." Alex defended earning a smile from Isabel.

"Okay so were back at square one...now what?" Michael asked. Everyone looked around for some idea, "Come on guys, Liz and Max are in trouble!"

"Why don't we split up." Jim said. "I'll go this way..."

"You can't go by yourself." Kyle said.

"I'll be fine." Jim said nodding. "I know the spot where Liz and Lauriee were buried, it's no big deal."

"What about Grant..." Isabel said worriedly. Jim patted his gun. "Michael why don't you go with him?" Isabel said. He nodded.

"Maria, Isabel and Alex can go in the other direction. And Tess and Kyle headed in the other." Michael suggested when everyone agreed, they took off in seperate directions.

Max and Liz were too busy making out to be worrying about being found. Liz's shirt had found it's way off and Liz's hands were under Max's shirt. Moaning in her throat when Max's tongue swept across her pulse on her neck, she quickly pushed his jacket off. "Max..." She moaned.

Unbuttoning his shirt next was a problem, not wanting him to stop with his ministrations on her neck but wanting his shirt off. Finally getting the buttons undone she pushed it off his shoulders to run her hands up and down his chest causing him to fling his head back. "God...Liz..."

"Max...I want you..." Liz whispered in his ear while her tongue flicked at his earlobe.

Max smiled before pushing her down on the ground. Pushing her bra up to look at her breast all Liz could do was be at his control. "Your beautiful..." He said before leaning down to take a aroused nipple in his mouth.

"MAX...." Liz struggled to out grasping at his hair.

"So..." Alex started to say nervously. "How have you been holding up?" He asked looking around for any clues.

Isabel shrugged, "Okay, just having some weird dreams you know?" Alex nodded, "Max is talking about leaving Roswell, after things calm down here with this parasite."

Alex looked up, "Why? It would just make things worse..."

"I know, something happened between him and Liz...something big..."

"Yessss...." Liz said as Max used his tongue to tease her belly button. Liz's head thrashed back and forth. "Max...please...."

Max moved back over her and silenced her with a kiss, "Liz...I...I still can't stay...we should stop..."

Liz leaned up on her elbows, "Give me something to remember you by Max...your my first love...if anything I want to give you my love...."

Max looked down at her swollen lips and aroused heaving chest before just nodding. Slowly helping her unbutton her jeans and push them down her hips, he kissed his way back up her thighs. First her left then the right. Leaning back up, Liz pulled Max up by his ears. "Stop teasing me..."

Kissing him once, before pushing his jeans down his legs, they laughed as the jeans stopped at his shoes but stopped when they saw his erection. Leaning back down he pressed himself into her hot center causing her to moan. "Oh god..."

Placing a hand between their melded bodies, he pushed two fingers inside her wet center causing her to thrust up. "Yes! Max, don't stop...."

Making sure she was nice and ready for him he pushed his boxers down. At the loss of his fingers she groaned. But was soon satisfied with the fill of Max. "Oh god..." Winching a little bit Max frowned.

"Are you okay?" Max asked sweat gathering at his eyebrow while trying to hold off from pushing into her.

"It hurts, but it's normal." Liz explained.

Max nodded, "I'm going to have to push..." He said gesturing with his hips. Liz nodded telling him it was okay. Giving her a second he pushed through the barrier never taking his eyes off of hers. Seeing the tears gather he stopped. "I'm sorry..."

"Don't...just don't move...please...not yet..." Liz said hoarsely.

Max nodded doing as she said, "Do you want me to pull out?" Liz shook her head.

Taking a deep breath she nodded, "Okay, you can move."

"Are you sure?" Liz nodded. Max moved slowly at first at the same time Liz did causing them both to moan.

"Yes...." Max said through clenched teeth. He knew his climax was on the verge of coming but knew Liz wasn't on the verge yet. Leaning down he took one of her breast in his mouth.

"Max...." She yelled out in surprise. Max started thrusting more quickly and more sharply causing Liz to clench her muscles around him causing him to moan in the back of his throat.

"Did you guys find anything?" Tess asked as they met up with Isabel and Alex. They shook their heads but were soon interrupted by the cell phone.

"Yeah...what is it dad?" Kyle asked. "You did, where? Okay, be right there."

"Yes!!!!" Max barked out as her orgasm washed over him causing him to go into orgasmic bliss himelf. "Oh god...."

Liz cradled him to her breast and slowly stroked up and down his chest, "Did you hear that?"
