Chapter 20
Isabel was wringing her hands together. She was scared. Serena was in pain again, so she sent some healing powers to her.
Serena calmed down and smiled at Isabel and said, “Thank you”.
“No thank you, if it wasn’t for you or rather the future version of you I would have Alex back, I didn’t say it before but thank you”.
“No thank you, for giving me and Ava a family, I wanted to thank you al for that, I saw that other timeline and you guys accepted us as one of you I will always be grateful for that”, said Serena.
“Me, too, you don’t know what it means to me to be part of this. I get to have all these brothers and sisters and friends, I have a family something I always wanted”, said Ava.
Kyle looked at her and smiled and patted her leg. Ava turned slightly and smiled at him. He was so cute she wanted to be with him forever. “We will be together forever, don’t you understand Ava actually Angelina I will always love you”, said Kyle.
Ava looked surprised. “You can hear my thoughts?”, asked Ava. “Yeah I can, I’m starting to remember some of our past life, we were happy”, said Kyle.
Serena was surprised they weren’t supposed to remember. “Wow you weren’t supposed to remember. I guess the granolith unleashed your memories or something. I don’t know”, said a confused Serena.
She was still in pain and Isabel sent her some healing energy again. “I remember too about me and Alex and remember Jessie too but I loved Alex in a way I couldn’t love Jessie. I hope he finds his soul mate.”, said Isabel.
“Yeah me too, I remember he was a good guy”, said Serena. She reached out and grabbed Isabel’s hands and smiled at her holding her hand the whole trip to the pod chamber. Isabel was happy that her brothers including Michael have found these women that loved them so much.
Serena was in great pain again and Kyle turned around from his position in the front and asked in a concerned voice, “Are you going to be alright, I think you should have stayed with Liz and Alex”.
Serena shook her head and said, “No I need to be there trust me, I have to be with Zan, he needs me”, said Serena in a strained voice. “Don’t worry Kyle I will be fine”, said Serena.
Meanwhile in the Jetta Michael drove with Maria besides him and Max in the backseat with now awake Tess. She woke up about 5 minutes before. Her and Maria were at it.
“Oh great the intergalactic slut face is up”, said Maria.
Michael couldn’t help but laugh out loud at Maria’s imaginative names for Tess.
“Shut Up Maria, you the whore and your mother too”, said Tess snidely.
“Michael so help me god, I’m gonna kill the bitch, me and her outside for real”, said an angry Maria.
“Maria calm down she’s not worth she never was”, said Max moving as far away from Tess as the backseat allowed. That girl is trouble.
“Well you thought I was worth it you slept with me and we having a son together”, said a smirking Tess.
In Maria’s mind she said Ha you wish bitch. Out loud she said, “You probably mind warped him, he wouldn’t come to you willingly”, scoffed Maria. Who did this bitch think she was. She could’nt wait for her to be gone from their lives so Liz can live happily ever after with Max and their baby.
“Bitch shut up, I didn’t have to do nothing for him to come to me”, said Tess smugly.
If Michael could laugh out loud he would. This bitch is crazy. “Whatever, Tess”, said Maria rolling her eyes.
“Be happy we made this deal with Nicholas and you get to go home, we don’t want you anywhere near us”, said Maria.
“I know, I will never forgive you Tess, you destroyed me and my friends”, said Max coldly.
Tess didn’t even have remorse in her eyes at all not even an ounce when she looked at Max and said, “Well I got what I wanted that’s all that counted”, said Tess.
Max looked at her with hatred and turned his face to look at the passing scenery. He was feeling Liz’s emotions she was scared for him. He sent her comforting feelings, He didn’t want her to feel his being uncomfortable around Tess. He sent his love to her and the baby. When he thought of the baby he smiled he couldn’t help it. Liz the love of his life was having his child. He was happy, but he was worried about how they were going to raise a baby as teens, he might be a alien King but that didn’t mean anything when they had to tell their parents. He was worried about the parkers and how he would precieved him. He didn’t want to admit it to himself but he wanted Liz’s parents to like him. He sighed and thought about Liz so he could keep those nagging thoughts out of his mind. He will worry about the parent issue later. When he was thinking about Liz with a smile on his face Tess was looking at him.
What was he thinking about it was probably Liz. Why couldn’t he love her. She hated that bitch Liz. If it was the last thing she did she would destroy Liz. She thought to herself she had already, she was carrying Liz’s child and Liz would never know that her and her precious Max made love and conceived a child. Tess would be the one to tell her, she knew she would come back and make sure that Liz knew. She turned her face to look at the scenery again. She had a feeling that Nicholas wasn’t going to trade Zan granolith like Maria explained to her. Man she hated that chatterbox in the front. She looked at Michael and Maria in distaste. They were being all love dovy in the front and arguing about the right radio station to listen too.
“Michael you have no taste in music there is other things besides Metallica”, said an aggravated Maria.
Michael just shook his head said, “Fine, Maria, listen to this crap now, but when we come back its Metallic alright”, said Michael driving with one hand and stroking her hair with the other hand.
Maria looked at him and smiled. She loved how Michael was being, she loved his softer side.
“Yeah sure compromise right”, said Maria.
“Right”, said Michael returning his hand back on the steering wheel.
Tess was grossed out, “Oh God stop this love fest”.
“Shut up Tess, or you walking to the pod chamber if you want to go so badly, be quiet or I’ll shut that abnormally shaped hole you consider a mouth”, yelled Maria.
Michael just laughed, man he loved this girl.
Max just bust out laughing and couldn’t stop. Tears rolled down his face.
“Funny bitch”, said an angry Tess.
Max couldn’t stop laughing. “It wasn’t that funny Max”, said an angry Tess.
“Yes it was”, said Max trying to catch his breathe from laughing so long.
“Your mouth is weird shaped, when I kissed you or rather when you made me kiss you I felt that”, said Max laughing all over again.
This remark got Maria laughing too. Tess just crossed her arms over her chest and looked out the window while Michael, Max, and Maria laughed it up at her expense. She wondered who was in the other car in front of them. She just noticed that a blond was driving and a man she assumed was Kyle or Alex sitting next to the woman. It must be Isabel. She also saw another blond and a dark hair girl in the back. That must be Liz but who was the other blond she wondered. She didn’t care she just wanted to go home.
They finally reached the pod chamber and Michael cut the engine and got out the care followed by Max and Maria and lastly Tess. The occupants of the other care got out. First came Kyle and he saw her and couldn’t hide his disgust at seeing her. The dark girl came out but it wasn’t Liz like Tess had suspected. Tess wondered who this girl was. Isabel came out and saw her and couldn’t hide her fury. Tess didn’t care she was going home and was going to be queens without these people it was their lost. Tess couldn’t help but wonder who the driver was, she was in shock when Ava her dupe walked out. Ava cleaned over her boots and walked up next to Kyle. She looked at Tess and shook her head. Tess wondered how long she was out for all these people to come here. When did Ava get here, she wondered. Oh well, she couldn’t do anything now. She looked at the dark hair girl again, she felt like she should know her but she couldn’t put her finger on it. She reminded her of someone. Yeah she reminded her of Liz. That just made Tess dislike no hate her already. She looked at her again, the dark haired girl looked like she was in pain, good, she should be.
Isabel walked up to Serena and asked, “Can you do this I mean you can stay out in the car”, said a worried Isabel.
“No I need Zan please, I’m fine, I just need him”, said Serena.
She thought the pain would get less but it didn’t she was just putting a brave front for the rest. Serena turned around when she felt someone watching her. She looked into the cold eyes of Tess. How could someone who looked some much like her sister be evil. Serena just shook her head and walked up the hill.
They all followed her with Michael in the back and Max directly ahead of him. Maria was nervous she didn’t want to lose anyone, she hoped that they would win. Maria looked up and spotted Nicholas with Vilondra, Rath, and a very weak Zan.
Zan was so weak that he was leaning up against the rock formation. Serena saw him and her breath caught, He was beautiful. She smiled shyly up to him and he smiled at her in a slow lazy smile that she used to love so much. She walked a little faster even though it hurt to do so. Zan saw the rest of the crew with the exception of Liz and Alex and wondered where they were. No he didn’t want the rest of these people here he knew that it was a trap that Nicholas was going to kill them all. Man Serena was beautiful. Her long flowing brown hair with purple highlights he believed. She had bangs and a tight blue shirt with low rise jeans. She was a goddess and he wanted her so badly. She looked like she was in pain though. He wondered why.
He looked up and saw Isabel looking at him with love in her eyes. Tears leaked from her eyes. He was blown away Vilondra never showed any love like that for him. He smiled at her and she wiped at her tear stained face and smiled at him.
Next he saw Maria. She gave him a small smile and waved at him. He liked her, he could tell she was nice.
Next in the line was Tess not Ava he could tell the difference. That bitch was just like Vilondra and Rath. She betrayed them all. He couldn’t keep the hate from his face.
“Hey duke what is she doing here?”, asked Vilondra, she also spotted Tess.
“She coming with us alright, she is having the heir, Kivar needs leverage with the loyalist alright”, said a pissed Nicholas.
Vilondra was not happy Zan could tell. Next he saw Ava holding hands with Kyle. He was happy she was happy. He felt bad for treating her so badly these last few years, he would make it up to her if they got out of this alive.
He saw his brother next. Max stopped when he spotted Zan. Man did they look alike. Michael ran into his back and looked at where max was looking. He knew how he felt, he felt the same way when he saw Rath. Max walked up some more and saw Serena bypass Vilondra, Rath, and Nicholas and ran up to Zan and hugging him. He could tell she was crying.
“God Zan are you alright?”, asked a tearful Serena.
“Yeah baby I’m fine, its good to see you again.
He brushed the hair that fell in her eyes and kissed her softly on the lips. Serena hugged him tighter until they both felt the pain. She winced and so did he.
“Sorry, Zan oh God I’m sorry.”, said Serena.
“Its okay, I love you do you know that”, said Zan while playing with her hair.
“I know I love you too, so much”, said Serena kissing him softly.
She smiled at him.
Nicholas cleared his throat and said in an impatient tone, “Let’s get this over with where’s the granolith”.
By that time everyone made it up to where Nicholas was standing. Max walked forward and pressed his hand against the rock and the door slide open. Isabel looked up at the sky before walking in and thought this is it.

Chapter 21
Max let everyone pass the only people not yet in the granolith chamber was Serena and Zan. Zan was in serious pain. Max made him lay down outside of the chamber. Zan looked up and saw the pods, where his siblings were born. Max pressed his hands against his chest and formed a connection.
“You have to look at me Zan”, said Max.
Serena was holding Zan’s hands and kissing his forehead. Zan looked at the eyes that were so similar to his own and let Max heal him.
Max saw a serious of flashed from Zan coming out the pods, hearing of his destiny, meeting and falling in love with Serena, being scard that he was going to die, him getting to see his sibilings interact by Nicholas showing him, his pain finding that Serena move on with that Brian guy, and his pain from the beatings that Vilondra and Rath inflicted on him. Max also saw how Zan felt about him and the others. He felt love for them.
He broke the connection and looked at his brother and said, “Welcome home Zan”.
Zan smiled and said, “Yeah its good to be home”.
Serena smiled at the two brothers and kissed Zan again on the mouth. “You really okay”, said Serena.
“Yeah I’m really okay”, said Zan in response.
Max pulled Zan onto his feet and Max followed them into the granolith chamber where all hell was breaking lose. Michael was fighting Rath and Isabel was fighting Vilondra.
“Get off of me bitch”, yelled Maria when Tess tried to grabbed her hair.
Max and Zan ran in with Serena following them. Nicholas was trying to make the granolith boot up quick and it was working. Zan shoot a energy ball at him and Nicholas flew. Max looked up surprised he didn’t know he had that power. Michael was kicking Rath’s ass. He couldn’t stand his dupe. This jerk hurt Zan which meant he hurt his sister. He got tired of it and started banging the dupe’s head against the ground repeatedly.
“So we meet again, Bitch, you know Kivar would never love you he always loved me”, said Vilondra.
“I don’t want Kivar, Vilondra, and he doesn’t want you”, said Isabel.
Two princesses battling for the win. Isabel sent small puffs of fire through her hands. Vilondra put of a small shield and deflected it.
Ava was mind warping Nicholas and the others while Kyle protected her he wasn’t going to let anything happen to his girl. Serena took over for Maria in fighting Tess so Maria could Serena. Man she hated this bitch. This chick messed with her family.
“How do you know my name?”, asked a curious Tess.
“Don’t you remember me, I refused you coronation to King Zan”, said Serena.
Tess felt an odd case of Déjà vu. Her eyes went wide and she whispered, “Callie, how is this possible”, said Tess. “I killed you on Antar, how did you get here”, asked Tess.
“That is not your business, and you wasn’t woman enough to kill me you little shit”, said Serena.
Tess raised her hand to do battle but nothing happened. “What the hell is going on what happened to my powers?”, yelled Tess.
“Well my dear we took them that’s what we did”, said Serena.
“I’m not going to stand her, I still got the heir I’m leaving”, said Tess. She ran and touched the granolith and got sucked into the granolith cone.
Nicholas had gotten up even after the blast to the wall and saw Tess running for the granolith. Before Zan could get another shot in he put his hand to the granolith and also got sucked into the cone.
Rath and Vilondra looked up and were about to make a run for the granolith when they were hit and turned to dust with two fire balls coming at them. They all looked up in surprise and saw Zan and Serena stand next together hold each others hands up and their hands where glowing. The earth started moving and Serena and the others swayed side to side.
Kyle yelled “Let’s get out of here”.
He grabbed Maria and Ava’s hands and ran out of the granolith chamber. Isabel followed with Michael and Max. Zan and Serena were the last ones out. They ran down the hill and the whole rock formation exploded in a big blast. Lava spewed from the sides and the whole earth rumbled in protest. Everyone one of them looked up and saw the rocket ship barrel its way into the horizon. It was an amazing sight. Oh my god was the general sentiment that came out of everyone’s mouth. Michael and Maria hugged each other as did Ava and Kyle and Serena and Zan. The rest of them stood around and looked up to were two of their biggest enemies left.
“Let’s go home”, said Max.
They all began walking down back to the cars. Isabel knew that Serena wanted to be with Zan so she walked to the Jetta to sit in the backseat with Max. When she got in she let a sigh of relief.
“Thank you god”, said Isabel out loud.
Maria looked at her and laughed. “That was the exactly thing was thinking. “Here Max call Liz tell her were are on the way”, said Maria.
Max eagerly took the phone and dialed Liz cell phone. Liz answered on the first ring “Thank god, Max I was so worried, are you alright, I love you so much, did you get Zan? Oh god, Max you scared me”, said Liz in one breath.
He laughed he loved hearing her babble. “Yes, baby I’m fine and we got Zan we are on the way to you right know”, said Max. They talked for a bit and Max passed Isabel the phone so that she could talk to Alex.
Isabel had tears in her eyes when he came on the phone “How you feeling princess? Are you alright? You coming right?”, asked a frantic Alex.
“Yes I’m coming home to you, I love you Alex very much”, said Isabel. “I love you too Isabel very much”, said Alex. They hung up and Isabel sighed again.
In the other car, Ava and Kyle were fighting for something to listen to that didn’t sound corny. “Kyle you suck this is not music”, said Ava shacking her head.
Kyle smiled at her and whispered in her ears “If you let me listen to this I’ll make you feel good” Ava blushed and shivered.
Damn how can he do that to her. She nodded her head and let him listen to that junk he considered music.
She looked into her rearview mirror and saw Zan playing with Serena’s hair and kissing her forehead. He looked so happy. Serena had her eyes closed with an equally wide smile on her face. Zan looked up and saw Ava looking at him and she smiled at him. Ava mouth the words Be Happy. Zan replied in the same manner I am.
He shifted his attention back to Serena. God he was happy she was really in his arms like he always dreamed of. She smelled like vanilla and strawberries and had a totally feminine smell all Serena. Serena leaned in a kissed him on the mouth again and tears spilled form her eyes.
“ I love you Zan, I love you so much, forgive me for not being with you”, said Serena looking up in his Amber eyes.
“Hey none of that lets keep the past where it belongs in the past, I’m not letting you go again. I love you baby so much”, said Zan in a whispered tone.
His throat tighten from the knowledge that she was his forever. He was still worried about this Brian guy but they would talk about it later.
Ten minutes they reached the hotel and parked the car and saw Liz and Alex running out of the motel room coming to meet them. Liz ran up to Max and jumped into his arms kissing him like there was no tomorrow. Alex went up to Isabel and hugged her tightly. God what would he do if he ever lost her. Tears leaked from his eyes. God he loved this woman. She smiled up at him and wiped his tears.
“I’m home I’m never leaving you”, said Isabel.
Zan had gotten out of the car with Serena wrapped tightly around his waist. He watch his brother and sister and their mates. He was happy for them.
Liz finally noticed him and smiled and walked up to him hugging him tightly and said, “Welcome home Zan, it’s good to finally meet you”.
Zan laughed and said, “Thanks, its good to be home”.
Isabel saw him and walked over and when Liz let go hugged him with all her might. Zan hugged her just as tight and closed his eyes. Yup she was nothing like Vilondra. She was pure and good.
“If you guys don’t stop crying when you see me I’ll get some complex”, joked Zan.
Isabel looked into the eyes that were so much like Max and smiled at him through her tears. He looked just like Max with the exception of the slightly wild hair and the eyebrow piercing and the tattoos of course, but his eyes were kind and caring just like Max. She hugged him again.
“Izzy let the man go, you gonna kill him you holding onto him so tight”, said Michael.
Maria just smirked and walked up to Zan looked him up and down and smiled giving him a kiss on the cheek, and said, “Welcome to our weird family”.
“Let’s go inside so we could decide what to do”, said Max taking on the leadership role that once was a burden for him but now he felt that belonged to him somehow.
Max let everyone pass the only people not yet in the granolith chamber was Serena and Zan. Zan was in serious pain. Max made him lay down outside of the chamber. Zan looked up and saw the pods, where his siblings were born. Max pressed his hands against his chest and formed a connection.

Chapter 22
Everyone walked into Serena’s and Ava’s hotel room. Max and Liz sit on the bed while the rest of them sit on the floor and Kyle sits on the chair in the room pulling Ava down to sit on his lap.
“Okay so what happened out there, is Nicholas dead, or what”, asked Liz.
“No he is on his way to Antar we couldn’t get to him on time”, said Serena.
“I know that bitch got away too, she pulled my hair”, said Maria.
Everyone laughed at Maria. Only Maria would care about her hair.
“Rath and Lonnie are dead though, I killed them”, said a sullen Zan.
“Hey we both did, if we didn’t they would have killed us”, said Serena, soothing him by run her hands up and down his back.
“I know it still doesn’t make me feel any less guilty, duke she was my sister and he was my friend at least for a while.’, said Zan.
“I know how you feel, like when I killed Pierce I know it was the right thing to do, but it didn’t make me feel any better, it takes time you know’, said Michael.
Zan nodded his head. Serena kissed his forehead again and whispered, “I’ll be there for you when you need me okay”. Zan nodded his head again.
“Alright so, we need to discuss about you guys I mean Serena, Ava, and you Zan are you guys staying in Roswell with us?”, asked Max.
He didn’t want them to leave he wanted to get to know Ava and Serena and he wanted to hang with his brother. “I’m not leavin, my home is here with you guys and wit Kyle”, said a determined Ava. Kyle hugged her after saying that. He was afraid that she was going to leave and that he was going to lose her.
Everyone turned to look at Zan and Serena and Zan spoke up, “ I mean if you want me here I’ll stay here, sides I want to get to know you guys you know since you are my only family, plus I think you gonna need all the help fighting Kivar and that punk”, said Zan.
“Hey I already called my mom and got me registered at West Roswell High, you stuck with me”, said Serena smiling.
“Oh I got some news also, its for Liz actually”, said Serena.
“Oh what is it?”, said Liz.
“I know you want to be a micro biologist, I have know idea how I know that but anyway my mom works for the board of education and I made her make a couple of calls on your behalf anyway she got you a job interview with this big shot micro biologist at the University of new Mexico and the starting salary is 30,000 dollars all you have to do is pass the interview but I know you will do great’, said Serena.
Liz eyes widen and screamed and ran and hugged Serena. ‘Are you serious? I get to have this job? Oh my god, really, thank you thank you”, said Liz kissing Serena on her cheeks. Serena laughed and so did everyone else. Liz got back up and hugged Max. Max smiled at her and smiled at Serena for making Liz so happy.
‘Well I figured since you were going to have a child you might need some income you know, the interview is next week Thursday at 1:00 pm at the school. I don’t know what you going to be doing but whatever”, said Serena.
“Oh my god, I’m having a baby, what am I going to tell my parents”, said Liz.
“Well you can tell them now but then you have to tell them about Max being an alien or you can tell them in about 1 and half when the baby comes”, said Serena.
“A year and a half, Tess said that Antarian births last only a month’, said Max.
“Yeah they do, but even though that Liz is changing she hasn’t changed completely yet, so that change has to happen first, it will take a while, so you have time to tell your parents”, said Serena.
Max and Liz breathed a sigh of relief. ‘Alright what about me I mean me and Max are somewhat identical, twins even how are you going to explain what I’m doing here all of the sudden and what about Ava?”, asked Zan.
“I got an idea, since Tess is gone Ava just can take her place, we will say that she finally found her real parents but they live far and that she will continue to live with me but she wants to change her name to what her biological parents named her when she was born, Ava”, said Kyle.
“What about Zan”, asked Alex.
“I know what to do, we are going to tell my parents the truth so that Zan can live with us”, said Max.
Everyone looked at him in surprise. Max was the one that always was scared to tell his parents. Isabel looked at him with hope in her eyes. “Yeah we are telling our parents about me, Isabel, and Zan. I mean we don’t have to tell them about you Michael or Ava if you don’t want but I think they deserve to know the truth”, said Max.
He was scared he hated to admit that but he wanted Zan with him and that is the only way to do it without his father not going to find their “birth” parents that abandoned them.
“You want me to stay with you, I mean they are your family I don’t want to be some third wheel you know”, said Zan.
“What are you talking about you are our family too, you are my brother and you belong with us, you wouldn’t be imposing or nothing, my parents will love you like they love us”, said Isabel.
She knew they would, her mother wouldn’t need any convincing at all she loved her and Max and she would love Zan too. “Well if it doesn’t work out I mean, my good for nothing father did something right, I called him and with his big shot money brought me a house with 5 rooms to live in while I’m staying in Roswell its not too far from here”, said Serena.
“You get your own house?”, asked Kyle.
“Yup, and Michael I want you to live with me I mean I will be living there all alone and it got 5 rooms, all you got to pay for is the cable bill, so what do you say?’, asked Serena.
She looked at him with hope in her eyes. She wanted to be with her brother and she knew he lived alone. “I want get in your way I promise, it’s a big house anyway, you get your own room and everything’, said Serena pleading just a little bit.
Michael looked at her and smiled, ‘Sure why not, its better then paying all the rent at my apartment anyway”, said Michael.
Serena got up and hugged him and said, “Great you won’t regret it I promise”. “Ava is it alright with you that you would be taking over Tess’s life you know”, said Liz.
“Yeah I mean is easier then answering hard questions besides Kyle is right, I could just say I’m changing my name”, said Ava.
“Plus I get to live with Kyle, oh the possibilities”, said a grinning Ava. Kyle actually blushed at that.
Everyone laughed. “Alright what else do we need to discuss”, said Max taking back the meeting.
‘max you could tell your parents about me if you want to be completely honest with them you know”, said Michael.
Max was shocked at this, Michael was never one to let people into this secret like that. “Alright, I know what about this Kivar problem and that bithc Nicholas and the other bitch Tess?”, asked a concerned Maria.
“I don’t know I guess we act like we have always acted you know hiding in plain sight”, said Max.
“We could work on our powers too, there is this big gym thing in the house that my dad brought we could practice there you know”, suggested Serena.
“That’s a good idea, I’m going to need more help in this mind warping and any other powers that Tess had”, said Maria. Michael smiled at that, he always thought that Maria would be freaked out but she just surprised him at her determination to learn.
“Alright what about school for Zan, cuz you are going”, said Serena.
“Oh man do I have to”, whined Zan.
“Yeah you do”, said Serena.
“Well we will get him registered in our school and tell the school that we found him in our search for our birth parents and that he is my twin for obvious reasons and can we get your mother to make transcripts from a school or something to send over”, asked Max.
“Well my mom can’t but my dad can, we will use is alien hocus pocus and get him a school record and everything, I’ll call him”, said Serena walking up to the phone dialing her father’s number.
Her father answered on the second ring “What do you want Serena?”, answered a gruff Kal Langley.
“Nice to hear from you too, dad, I need a favor”, said Serena.
“Don’t you always?”, said Langley in a sarcastic tone.
“Look jerk, I’m need you to listen alright, Zan needs transcripts for school and I know you could get them, he is staying in Roswell with us and he needs them to be a senior at Roswell High ALRIGHT”, yelled Serena.
Everyone turned around to look at Serena. They could tell she was angry little bits of light were shooting from her hands.
“Alright calm down, I’ll get them for you, he will be registered by the end of the week, okay”, said Langley who passed his hands over his eyes.
He didn’t understand why he treated his daughter like this but he couldn’t stop. He loved her but he didn’t know how to express it. He was a shape shifter for god’s sakes what did she want from him. Serena felt his feelings with her empathic abilities. She calmed down a bit but was still mad. “Thank you, dad, I’ll call you soon, bye”, said Serena. Kal hung up without saying good-bye. She felt tears come to her eyes. Why didn’t he ever act like a father to her she wondered.
She turned around and looked at everyone they were all trying not to show their sorrow for her but she could feel it.
“I’m alright and the papers should be at West Roswell by the end of the week”, said Serena.
Zan got up and walked over to her and hugged her he understood. He remembered how Kal used to treat Serena and her mom when they were living in New York.
Serena hugged him tightly against her and sighed. She knew he would understand.
“Anyway, He is usually rough around the edges but he will get it done don’t worry”, said Serena.
“Alright is that all?”, asked Max.
“Yeah I think that should be it”, said Michael.
He could feel his sister’s pain he didn’t understand why.
“Wait actually Serena I can feel you now, will Alex, Ava, and Liz feel me eventually too?”, asked Michael.
“Yeah actually all of us in the room should feel each other if we concentrate or the feelings are strong enough, since we did the whole giving each other our memories thing”, said Serena.
“What about me I wasn’t there”, asked Zan.
“But you was, that’s why I was feel pain, I was feeling your pain, for some reason we are connected Zan, so that means that you should be connected with everyone in this room also”, said Serena.
“That was you? I swear I thought I was losing my mind, I thought I heard Max’s voice also”, said Zan.
“You did, bro, I connected with Serena to heal her to heal you since you are connected and I sent a message saying I was coming”, said Max.
“You guys were healing me right, because I would feel this relief after what Rath and Vilondra would do to me”, said Zan.
“Yeah, Isabel too sent you some healing bro, we family we got to watch each others backs you know” said Max.
Zan nodded his head for some reason he was unable to speak. He had a family who loved him and a girl. Speaking of his girl what was she going to do about this Brian person he wondered. He will have to talk to her about that later.
“Alright let’s go home Zan, let’s us introduce you to our parents”, said Max giving Zan his hand lifting him up off the bed.
“Alright, let’s roll, I need something to eat, why don’t you guys meet us later at the Crash down so we can get some food, I’m starving, come on Ava, let’s go meet my dad”, said Kyle.
“What time are we meeting at the Crashdown?”, asked Liz.
“Well, its’ two now, how about 6 o clock or something?”, said Max.
Everyone nodded their heads and started walking out.
Serena stayed behind and said, “Ava you riding with Kyle right, you have to come pick me up later then”.
“Hey why don’t you come with us, You can hang out with me if you want”, said Liz.
“Alright sure, I’ll call me mom and get her to tell me more about your new job”, said Serena.
Serena looked at the room one more time when she heard Kyle arguing for the right to drive her jeep and she smiled.
Everyone walked into Serena’s and Ava’s hotel room. Max and Liz sit on the bed while the rest of them sit on the floor and Kyle sits on the chair in the room pulling Ava down to sit on his lap.
“Okay so what happened out there, is Nicholas dead, or what”, asked Liz.
“No he is on his way to Antar we couldn’t get to him on time”, said Serena.
“I know that bitch got away too, she pulled my hair”, said Maria.
Everyone laughed at Maria. Only Maria would care about her hair.
“Rath and Lonnie are dead though, I killed them”, said a sullen Zan.
“Hey we both did, if we didn’t they would have killed us”, said Serena, soothing him by run her hands up and down his back.
“I know it still doesn’t make me feel any less guilty, duke she was my sister and he was my friend at least for a while.’, said Zan.
“I know how you feel, like when I killed Pierce I know it was the right thing to do, but it didn’t make me feel any better, it takes time you know’, said Michael.
Zan nodded his head. Serena kissed his forehead again and whispered, “I’ll be there for you when you need me okay”. Zan nodded his head again.
“Alright so, we need to discuss about you guys I mean Serena, Ava, and you Zan are you guys staying in Roswell with us?”, asked Max.
He didn’t want them to leave he wanted to get to know Ava and Serena and he wanted to hang with his brother. “I’m not leavin, my home is here with you guys and wit Kyle”, said a determined Ava. Kyle hugged her after saying that. He was afraid that she was going to leave and that he was going to lose her.
Everyone turned to look at Zan and Serena and Zan spoke up, “ I mean if you want me here I’ll stay here, sides I want to get to know you guys you know since you are my only family, plus I think you gonna need all the help fighting Kivar and that punk”, said Zan.
“Hey I already called my mom and got me registered at West Roswell High, you stuck with me”, said Serena smiling.
“Oh I got some news also, its for Liz actually”, said Serena.
“Oh what is it?”, said Liz.
“I know you want to be a micro biologist, I have know idea how I know that but anyway my mom works for the board of education and I made her make a couple of calls on your behalf anyway she got you a job interview with this big shot micro biologist at the University of new Mexico and the starting salary is 30,000 dollars all you have to do is pass the interview but I know you will do great’, said Serena.
Liz eyes widen and screamed and ran and hugged Serena. ‘Are you serious? I get to have this job? Oh my god, really, thank you thank you”, said Liz kissing Serena on her cheeks. Serena laughed and so did everyone else. Liz got back up and hugged Max. Max smiled at her and smiled at Serena for making Liz so happy.
‘Well I figured since you were going to have a child you might need some income you know, the interview is next week Thursday at 1:00 pm at the school. I don’t know what you going to be doing but whatever”, said Serena.
“Oh my god, I’m having a baby, what am I going to tell my parents”, said Liz.
“Well you can tell them now but then you have to tell them about Max being an alien or you can tell them in about 1 and half when the baby comes”, said Serena.
“A year and a half, Tess said that Antarian births last only a month’, said Max.
“Yeah they do, but even though that Liz is changing she hasn’t changed completely yet, so that change has to happen first, it will take a while, so you have time to tell your parents”, said Serena.
Max and Liz breathed a sigh of relief. ‘Alright what about me I mean me and Max are somewhat identical, twins even how are you going to explain what I’m doing here all of the sudden and what about Ava?”, asked Zan.
“I got an idea, since Tess is gone Ava just can take her place, we will say that she finally found her real parents but they live far and that she will continue to live with me but she wants to change her name to what her biological parents named her when she was born, Ava”, said Kyle.

Chapter 23:
Serena, Liz, Maria, and Michael sat in the back booth of the Crash Down laughing.
“Oh God, Liz this place, those outfits are degrading to my people”, said Serena.
“Well they are my people too”, said Liz laughing.
It had been so long since she laughed. She looked down at the news paper in front of her and read Alex Whitmen: Teen Boy back from the grave. In a way it was true Alex was back from the grave, and she promised herself nothing would happen to him again.
“OH yeah, I forgot, you the queen”, said Serena getting up and bowing up and down repeatedly. Everyone bust out laughing.
“Yeah I’m the queen and I could put you on clean up duty for a year you know”, said Liz laughing.
“But you wouldn't do that to your poor sister, besides King Max wouldn't like that, I’m his friend”, said Serena with a pout.
“Well she is queen and I hate to say this, I listen to everything she says”, said Max walking in the Crashdown followed by Isabel and Zan.
Everyone looked at Zan in surprise. In the four hours that they were apart Zna got a haircut and some new clothing but he still kept his Zan ness by leaving the tattoos and the eyebrow piercing.
“Nice, don’t you look sexy”, said Serena looking him up and down.
Zan pulled up a chair next to the booth but before straddling the chair he kissed Serena on the mouth.
“Well it was Izzy’s idea, its alright but I got to get my own clothes from NY for real duke”, said Zan.
“Yeah whatever my brother you look nice, I must say”, said Isabel.
“How did the talk with your parents go?”, asked Maria.
“Yeah did they freak out?”, asked Michael.
“Well let’s just say they were surprised but mom wasn’t for some reason and she was just happy to know now”, said Max.
Flashback: earlier this afternoon
“Mom, Dad we need to talk to you”, yelled Max coming into his home.
Zan looked around and he liked what he saw. Max and Isabel got a good deal here. He walked up to the mantle and looked at the family pictures displayed there and smiled and turned around when he heard a gasp. He looked at the woman who was supposed to be Max’s mother she looked surprised to see him, he couldn’t blame her but he also saw love in her eyes. But she just met him and he didn’t even say anything yet. A man he assumed was Max’s father walked in and also looked at him in surprise. Zan looked down at his feet he couldn’t really stand to be the center of attention. Isabel smiled and slipped her hands into his. He looked up at her and gave a slight smile in her direction.
“What is going on, Max, Isabel”, asked Phillip Evans.
“Yeah we need to talk to you take a seat mom and dad its going to be a long story”, said Max. he was nervous.
He didn’t want his parents to think of him as being a freak you know.
“Mom, dad I can’t tell you how happy it was living here with you and having this family is great, I love it here. I love you guys”, said Max.
“I love you too, honey, what is going on, who is this”, asked Diane.
“My name is Zan, I’m Isabel and Max’s brother”, said Zan in a soft voice.
He didn’t know why he was nervous, I mean, Serena said she got that house that he could live in if anything went wrong. But he wanted to live her with Isabel and Max and their parents, he wanted to feel that love that Diane showed Max and Isabel. Diane looked at Zan in the eyes and smiled. He looked so much like her Max, she began to love him already.
She walked up to him and smiled and hugged him. Zan looked surprised and it took him a second to hug her back. He didn’t want to let go. She was so motherly. She was what mothers were supposed to feel like.
“Yeah I can tell, how did you meet”, asked Phillip.
He kept looking at the boy with his wife. He could tell Diane loved the boy already. Umm he wondered if Zan was in the desert that might also.
“Were you in the desert where we found Isabel and Max too?”, asked Phillip.
When Diane heard this she gasped. No she couldn’t have left a boy out there alone, NO it couldn’t be. “No dad, we need to talk to you, about who we really are, dad, mom, we are aliens, we crashed here in 1947 and were in these incubation pods, Zan was in an incubation pod in New York, while we were here”, said Max.
His parents looked shocked but Diane’s face relaxed a bit and asked her son, “Is that why you could heal the bird? Is this the secret?”, asked Diane.
She couldn’t believe that her children were aliens, but she loved them anyway.
“Yes, mom, its mine and Zan’s gifts to heal, people”, said Max.
Isabel and Max looked at their parents expectantly. They were afraid.
“I love you Max, it doesn’t change”, said Diane.
Max smiled at her and ran up and hugged his mom. He loved his mom so much. Isabel had tears flowing form her eyes, she knew that her mom would be alright, but now it was her dad she was worried about.
Everyone turned to look at Phillip, who was still in shock.
“Dad? I know this is a lot to take but I won’t hurt you I promise, I can’t change who I am”, said Max, in a voice that a little boy would use when he was being punished.
Phillip smiled at his children and said, “You are my kids, I love you no matter where you came from.”
Isabel ran up to her dad and hugged him tightly, whispering Daddy I love you so much. Phillip looked at Max and hugged him also kissing him on top of his head. Diane looked at her son well both of her sons now and smiled, she now knew about her children.
“Alright tell us about this long story of yours”, said Diane.
She sat in between Zan and Max and took each of their hands into her each of her hands. Zan looked at her and smiled. She felt so good, she felt motherly. He couldn’t believe that she showed love towards him also even though technically he wasn’t one of their own. Diane must have sensed his thoughts and whispered in his ears, “You mine son now too, I meant what I said I love you no matter who you are”.
Zan smiled brightly at this and Isabel smiled at him. She could already feel Zan becoming one of the family. Max started with how Liz got shot and him saving her. He continued about Michael being one of them and that he was there that night. Diane looked grief stricken she felt like she lost a son. She asked if she could speak to him. They nodded their agreement.
Max told everything that happened with him and Liz, while Isabel talked about her life with Alex and how he was alive now and that Tess had killed him. Max told them about Tess and the baby, and how exactly that all came about, and how Liz was going to give birth in 2 years. They weren’t happy but they understood. They talked about everything from running from the FBI and to Max being in the white room. Zan had to hold onto Diane because she was crying so hard. Phillip clenched his fist not to lash out at those people who hurt son.
They told them everything they could imagine. Zan talked about his life in New York and about Ava and how even though she looked like Tess she was nothing like her. Diane also cried for her son when he talked about the torture that Vilondra and Rath put him though. Phillip looked at his sons, Zan was his son now and looked at them with pride. They were so courageous to live through that.
They talked about future Serena and her purpose and also they talked about present Serena and her job offer to Liz. Max’s parents wanted to meet her. Diane could tell like she could tell with Max and Liz and Zan loved Serena.
“Well I’m going to have to talk to this Langley person, to make sure he puts down Evans as your last name, the adoption should be done by the summer time”, said Phillip.
Zan looked up in surprised. They wanted to adopt him. They didn’t have to do that.
“You don’t have to do that, I mean I don’t want to get in the way of your family”, said Zan.
“You are family, and my son, I want you to have my name like Isabel, and Max do”, said Phillip.
Zan just smiled.
“Alright, I’ll get the number form Serena”, said Zan.
“Alright, Mom DAD, can we go meet our friends,” asked Isabel.
“Sure but first let’s show Zan his room”, said Diane.
Zan and the rest of his family walked up to the second floor and walked into what used to be their guestroom.
“You can decorate it how ever you like to and we can go get the rest of your stuff from New York later on in the summer”, said Diane.
Zan smiled and nodded his head. He noticed he was doing that a lot lately.
“Thanks mom”, said Zan in a low voice.
Diane turned around and smiled at that.
“Come on Zan we need to go shopping for clothes and get you a haircut”, said Isabel pulling her brother’s arms down the stairs.
Max just laughed Nazi Isabel was back. She spent two hours at the mall which was quick considering Isabel’s love for the mall. They got Zan new clothes and a haircut, but he refused to take off his eyebrow piercing even with Isabel’s whining.
“Come on Zan, that piercing is so like last season”, said Isabel in a fake Calfornia valley girl accent.
“Izzy I’m not taking out my piercing man, I’m not you can pout all you want besides Serena likes it”, said Zan.
Max just laughed at his brother and sister. “Let’s go, I got a pie waiting for me at the Crash Down”, said Max.
“Why do you lie, you got a woman waiting for you not a pie”, said Zan smirking.
“Well that too, let’s go”, said Max.
They all hopped in their parent’s minivan and drove to the crash down. They reported the jeep stolen and we promised another one by the time school starts.
End of Flash Back
While Max was telling the story of their parents Kyle and Ava walked in hand and hand.
“Hey Kyle how did your father take Ava living with you guys”, said Liz.
“Fine you know he said that Ava had something that Tess didn’t, compassion”, replied Kyle.
He pulled up a chair beside Zan and pulled Ava into his lap. Alex walked in then. Maria and Liz both ran up to him and said, “Alex you’re here”
“ Zan your right, this crying can give you a complex”, joked Alex. He looked at Isabel and she blushed.
“Hey princess”, said Alex softly kissing her forehead.
He got her to get up and made her sit in his lap. Max was sitting next to Liz and smiled at Liz. He thought this is the way it was supposed to be. But he couldn’t help be scared about the upcoming battle they would face. Liz looked at him and whispered, “Are you alright”
“Yeah I’m fine”, replied Max and kissed her on the forehead.
She looked at him a second more and sighed. Liz turned back to the conversation at hand. Maria was complaining about how Pam Troy was a boyfriend stealer and that Serena and Ava had to watch out for her.
“I mean those clothes, that hair, that girl just need a corner to walk on, she’s a man eater”, said Maria.
Max and Kyle both bust out laughing at this. They remembered that day when Kyle called Liz that.
“What’s so funny?”, asked Liz.
“Yeah what you laughing at?”, asked Ava.
“Nothing”, replied both Kyle and Max at the same time.
Both girls narrowed their eyes and crossed their arms over tier chests waiting for an explanation.
“I suggest you tell them before they fire you with those looks”, laughed Michael.
“Alright I’ll tell you”, said Max.
“Evans!”, said Kyle.
Max preceded to tell them all that Kyle did that night and where the men eating comment came from. Zan was laughing so hard at Max’s and Kyle’s behavior he fell on the floor. Which made the group laugh even harder.
On a planet far away a man with no pupils in his eyes and said, “ Laugh now Zan, I’ll get you soon”. Kivar looked at Tess and Nicholas and smirked along with them. Soon King Zan Kivar will be coming and so will I thought Tess. I’ll kill Liz if it’s the last thing I do, thought Tess.
Serena, Liz, Maria, and Michael sat in the back booth of the Crash Down laughing.
“Oh God, Liz this place, those outfits are degrading to my people”, said Serena.
“Well they are my people too”, said Liz laughing.
It had been so long since she laughed. She looked down at the news paper in front of her and read Alex Whitmen: Teen Boy back from the grave. In a way it was true Alex was back from the grave, and she promised herself nothing would happen to him again.
“OH yeah, I forgot, you the queen”, said Serena getting up and bowing up and down repeatedly. Everyone bust out laughing.
“Yeah I’m the queen and I could put you on clean up duty for a year you know”, said Liz laughing.
“But you wouldn't do that to your poor sister, besides King Max wouldn't like that, I’m his friend”, said Serena with a pout.
“Well she is queen and I hate to say this, I listen to everything she says”, said Max walking in the Crashdown followed by Isabel and Zan.
Everyone looked at Zan in surprise. In the four hours that they were apart Zna got a haircut and some new clothing but he still kept his Zan ness by leaving the tattoos and the eyebrow piercing.
“Nice, don’t you look sexy”, said Serena looking him up and down.
Zan pulled up a chair next to the booth but before straddling the chair he kissed Serena on the mouth.
“Well it was Izzy’s idea, its alright but I got to get my own clothes from NY for real duke”, said Zan.
“Yeah whatever my brother you look nice, I must say”, said Isabel.
“How did the talk with your parents go?”, asked Maria.
“Yeah did they freak out?”, asked Michael.
“Well let’s just say they were surprised but mom wasn’t for some reason and she was just happy to know now”, said Max.
Flashback: earlier this afternoon
“Mom, Dad we need to talk to you”, yelled Max coming into his home.
Zan looked around and he liked what he saw. Max and Isabel got a good deal here. He walked up to the mantle and looked at the family pictures displayed there and smiled and turned around when he heard a gasp. He looked at the woman who was supposed to be Max’s mother she looked surprised to see him, he couldn’t blame her but he also saw love in her eyes. But she just met him and he didn’t even say anything yet. A man he assumed was Max’s father walked in and also looked at him in surprise. Zan looked down at his feet he couldn’t really stand to be the center of attention. Isabel smiled and slipped her hands into his. He looked up at her and gave a slight smile in her direction.
“What is going on, Max, Isabel”, asked Phillip Evans.
“Yeah we need to talk to you take a seat mom and dad its going to be a long story”, said Max. he was nervous.
He didn’t want his parents to think of him as being a freak you know.
“Mom, dad I can’t tell you how happy it was living here with you and having this family is great, I love it here. I love you guys”, said Max.
“I love you too, honey, what is going on, who is this”, asked Diane.
“My name is Zan, I’m Isabel and Max’s brother”, said Zan in a soft voice.
He didn’t know why he was nervous, I mean, Serena said she got that house that he could live in if anything went wrong. But he wanted to live her with Isabel and Max and their parents, he wanted to feel that love that Diane showed Max and Isabel. Diane looked at Zan in the eyes and smiled. He looked so much like her Max, she began to love him already.
She walked up to him and smiled and hugged him. Zan looked surprised and it took him a second to hug her back. He didn’t want to let go. She was so motherly. She was what mothers were supposed to feel like.
“Yeah I can tell, how did you meet”, asked Phillip.
He kept looking at the boy with his wife. He could tell Diane loved the boy already. Umm he wondered if Zan was in the desert that might also.
“Were you in the desert where we found Isabel and Max too?”, asked Phillip.
When Diane heard this she gasped. No she couldn’t have left a boy out there alone, NO it couldn’t be. “No dad, we need to talk to you, about who we really are, dad, mom, we are aliens, we crashed here in 1947 and were in these incubation pods, Zan was in an incubation pod in New York, while we were here”, said Max.
His parents looked shocked but Diane’s face relaxed a bit and asked her son, “Is that why you could heal the bird? Is this the secret?”, asked Diane.
She couldn’t believe that her children were aliens, but she loved them anyway.
“Yes, mom, its mine and Zan’s gifts to heal, people”, said Max.
Isabel and Max looked at their parents expectantly. They were afraid.
“I love you Max, it doesn’t change”, said Diane.
Max smiled at her and ran up and hugged his mom. He loved his mom so much. Isabel had tears flowing form her eyes, she knew that her mom would be alright, but now it was her dad she was worried about.
Everyone turned to look at Phillip, who was still in shock.
“Dad? I know this is a lot to take but I won’t hurt you I promise, I can’t change who I am”, said Max, in a voice that a little boy would use when he was being punished.
Phillip smiled at his children and said, “You are my kids, I love you no matter where you came from.”
Isabel ran up to her dad and hugged him tightly, whispering Daddy I love you so much. Phillip looked at Max and hugged him also kissing him on top of his head. Diane looked at her son well both of her sons now and smiled, she now knew about her children.
“Alright tell us about this long story of yours”, said Diane.
She sat in between Zan and Max and took each of their hands into her each of her hands. Zan looked at her and smiled. She felt so good, she felt motherly. He couldn’t believe that she showed love towards him also even though technically he wasn’t one of their own. Diane must have sensed his thoughts and whispered in his ears, “You mine son now too, I meant what I said I love you no matter who you are”.
Zan smiled brightly at this and Isabel smiled at him. She could already feel Zan becoming one of the family. Max started with how Liz got shot and him saving her. He continued about Michael being one of them and that he was there that night. Diane looked grief stricken she felt like she lost a son. She asked if she could speak to him. They nodded their agreement.
Max told everything that happened with him and Liz, while Isabel talked about her life with Alex and how he was alive now and that Tess had killed him. Max told them about Tess and the baby, and how exactly that all came about, and how Liz was going to give birth in 2 years. They weren’t happy but they understood. They talked about everything from running from the FBI and to Max being in the white room. Zan had to hold onto Diane because she was crying so hard. Phillip clenched his fist not to lash out at those people who hurt son.
They told them everything they could imagine. Zan talked about his life in New York and about Ava and how even though she looked like Tess she was nothing like her. Diane also cried for her son when he talked about the torture that Vilondra and Rath put him though. Phillip looked at his sons, Zan was his son now and looked at them with pride. They were so courageous to live through that.
They talked about future Serena and her purpose and also they talked about present Serena and her job offer to Liz. Max’s parents wanted to meet her. Diane could tell like she could tell with Max and Liz and Zan loved Serena.
“Well I’m going to have to talk to this Langley person, to make sure he puts down Evans as your last name, the adoption should be done by the summer time”, said Phillip.
Zan looked up in surprised. They wanted to adopt him. They didn’t have to do that.
“You don’t have to do that, I mean I don’t want to get in the way of your family”, said Zan.
“You are family, and my son, I want you to have my name like Isabel, and Max do”, said Phillip.
Zan just smiled.
“Alright, I’ll get the number form Serena”, said Zan.
“Alright, Mom DAD, can we go meet our friends,” asked Isabel.
“Sure but first let’s show Zan his room”, said Diane.
Zan and the rest of his family walked up to the second floor and walked into what used to be their guestroom.
“You can decorate it how ever you like to and we can go get the rest of your stuff from New York later on in the summer”, said Diane.
Zan smiled and nodded his head. He noticed he was doing that a lot lately.
“Thanks mom”, said Zan in a low voice.
Diane turned around and smiled at that.
“Come on Zan we need to go shopping for clothes and get you a haircut”, said Isabel pulling her brother’s arms down the stairs.
Max just laughed Nazi Isabel was back. She spent two hours at the mall which was quick considering Isabel’s love for the mall. They got Zan new clothes and a haircut, but he refused to take off his eyebrow piercing even with Isabel’s whining.
“Come on Zan, that piercing is so like last season”, said Isabel in a fake Calfornia valley girl accent.
“Izzy I’m not taking out my piercing man, I’m not you can pout all you want besides Serena likes it”, said Zan.
Max just laughed at his brother and sister. “Let’s go, I got a pie waiting for me at the Crash Down”, said Max.
“Why do you lie, you got a woman waiting for you not a pie”, said Zan smirking.
“Well that too, let’s go”, said Max.
They all hopped in their parent’s minivan and drove to the crash down. They reported the jeep stolen and we promised another one by the time school starts.
End of Flash Back
While Max was telling the story of their parents Kyle and Ava walked in hand and hand.
“Hey Kyle how did your father take Ava living with you guys”, said Liz.
“Fine you know he said that Ava had something that Tess didn’t, compassion”, replied Kyle.
He pulled up a chair beside Zan and pulled Ava into his lap. Alex walked in then. Maria and Liz both ran up to him and said, “Alex you’re here”
“ Zan your right, this crying can give you a complex”, joked Alex. He looked at Isabel and she blushed.
“Hey princess”, said Alex softly kissing her forehead.
He got her to get up and made her sit in his lap. Max was sitting next to Liz and smiled at Liz. He thought this is the way it was supposed to be. But he couldn’t help be scared about the upcoming battle they would face. Liz looked at him and whispered, “Are you alright”
“Yeah I’m fine”, replied Max and kissed her on the forehead.
She looked at him a second more and sighed. Liz turned back to the conversation at hand. Maria was complaining about how Pam Troy was a boyfriend stealer and that Serena and Ava had to watch out for her.
“I mean those clothes, that hair, that girl just need a corner to walk on, she’s a man eater”, said Maria.
Max and Kyle both bust out laughing at this. They remembered that day when Kyle called Liz that.
“What’s so funny?”, asked Liz.
“Yeah what you laughing at?”, asked Ava.
“Nothing”, replied both Kyle and Max at the same time.
Both girls narrowed their eyes and crossed their arms over tier chests waiting for an explanation.
“I suggest you tell them before they fire you with those looks”, laughed Michael.
“Alright I’ll tell you”, said Max.
“Evans!”, said Kyle.
Max preceded to tell them all that Kyle did that night and where the men eating comment came from. Zan was laughing so hard at Max’s and Kyle’s behavior he fell on the floor. Which made the group laugh even harder.
On a planet far away a man with no pupils in his eyes and said, “ Laugh now Zan, I’ll get you soon”. Kivar looked at Tess and Nicholas and smirked along with them. Soon King Zan Kivar will be coming and so will I thought Tess. I’ll kill Liz if it’s the last thing I do, thought Tess.

Chapter 24
The next week or so everyone was busy either moving in or moving out.
“Michael which room do you want?”, asked Serena looking at her new home.
Michael was a little shocked at the size of his new home.
“This one is good” replied Michael pointing to the room on the first floor closest to the door.
He wanted to make sure he heard everyone and everything that entered this house. Serena was living there and he had to make sure that she was safe. Serena had suggested that they make a trip to see Laurie since she was Michael’s sister. Next week is when they will take their trip up there.
“Alright let’s get the rest of your stuff in here”, said Serena.
She was happy that Michael decided to live with her, it was a way for her to get to know her brother better. Zan walked into the house and looked around.
“Damn Rena this place is huge”, said Zan kissing her on the forehead.
His girlfriend was beautiful. Yup ladies and gentlemen Serena was his girl. She told him a couple of days ago that she broke it off with Brian. He hated it to admit it but that was the best news he had ever gotten. Max and Liz walked in the some boxes.
“Liz I told you not to carry any boxes”, said Michael grabbing the light box from her hands.
“Michael I’m pregnant not damged”, said Liz rolling her eyes once again at her over protective brother.
Michael and of course Max made it so that she never lifted a finger; she didn’t mind really but they were treating her like she was broken.
Max turned and looked at her and said, “Liz I told you not to, I don’t want you to get hurt” kissing her mouth gently.
Zan just smirked at their antics. Liz and him got closer this week. She and him talked about her being pregnant and her feelings towards Tess. After he learned about everything that Tess put them though he was about to have a mental break down.
Zan walked up to his brother and said, “Don’t worry about Liz she’s strong”.
“Yeah like you wasn’t going to yell at her for holding that box too, that’s your nephew in there you know”, said Max.
Zan just looked down at his shoes, he knew Max was right. Max laughed at him, when Nazi Isabel came in with her measuring tape. Max and Zan looked at her and rolled their eyes. Zan knew she was in one of her moods, the mood to decorate. He was in awe at how much stuff Isabel planned when decorating his room a few days ago. Max just laughed at her. Zan gave up and let her do her thing. Isabel was scary mad. Zan looked up and saw Alex carrying all her home decorating magazines and Maria following him holding what looked like drawings on how Isabel wanted to decorate Serena and Michael’s home. Maria looked at Zan and also rolled her eyes. Maria and Zan also got closer this past week. Maria, Max, and Zan would sit around and talk and laugh at Michael and Maria’s argument that week.
“Girlfriend your sister is insane”, said Maria to Zan.
Zan loved when she called him that, it made him feel like he belonged. “ I’m telling you just get out of her way, Isabel is one scary alien”, said Kyle walking in with a box and Ava follwing behind him also carrying one of Serena’s lamps in one hand and a small box in another.
“Hey, be quiet I have to get a feel for this room”, said Isabel.
Everyone looked at her and just shook their heads. Serena didn’t get it, Isabel was a Nazi yeah but she didn’t care as long as she wasn’t doing the work she was fine.
“Alright Isabel what do you see for the living room?”, asked Serena.
Isabel ignored the question and snapped her fingers toward Alex and so he could get her supplies. Serena just laughed at how fast Alex got up from the floor. Poor guy thought Serena.
The last week was a bonding experience for the group of friends, well family thought Serena. She remembered being invited to the Evan’s home last week. They wanted to meet the woman who they thought changed everyone’s lives. It really wasn’t her it was a future version of herself but that little fact didn’t really stop them though. Michael was also invited to the dinner party, where Mrs. Evans preceded to shower an uncomfortable Michael with kisses on his face, telling him how sorry she was for not being there for her. Everyone just laughed when Michael just stared at her.
“Yeah, its alright you were there when I needed you, I’m the one who got scared it’s not your fault”, said a gruff Michael.
She still held onto to him, he looked slightly uncomfortable at first but easily began to relax. The dinner party also included everyone in their little group. After dinner Mr. Evans invited everyone to sit in the living room to talk about the alien-ness in their lives.
“So Max, Isabel, and Zan filled us in on what has been going on the last year or so, I wanted to also hear it from your mouths too”, said Phillip.
Liz looked up and spoke, “Well it has been difficult sometimes but it also had some good rewards, like us saving Ava and Serena, and getting Alex back and of course Zan. The difficult part was keeping it from the people we love you know, its hard to get people to trust you when you lie to them all the time, but we knew that when we got involved”, said Liz squeezing Max’s hands.
“Yeah I mean, my mom would have a cow if she knew, at first the Jim was after Max and them and we had to protect them but they didn’t fully trust us neither, which is understandable, then the whole thing with Max getting captured by Special Unit and hearing about this destiny thing and of course the slutface, excuse my language messing with people’s minds, it wasn’t easy”, said Maria. Michael had his arms around her and she leaned into his chest.
“I learned about everything in jail, me Alex Whitmen in jail, I couldn’t believe it, I was mad at Liz for not telling me the truth and when she did I was let’s just say surprised was not the word, but after a while I came to realize something, that I am a part of something big, I am one of a few people that knows something that over 6 billion don’t know. I’m happy I know because I got to meet these great people and got the family that I love”, said Alex. Everyone turned around and smiled at him. Isabel was teary eyed of course, she smiled wide at him. Serena finally spoke up.
“You know I didn’t even know I was different until I was about 7 years old and my mother fell down the stairs, I healed her, I was scared out my mind that she was going think of me as a freak you know, she just looked at my and smiled and precede to tell me why I could od these things. I was mad at first that she dind’t tell me, but she explained to me that she wanted me to have a normal life, I told her I knew I wasn’t normal in the terms she knew of and I always kind of knew. My father wasn’t really around much, I knew him, I hate to say this I hated him, He was cold and unfeeling, but my mother loved him, I think she still does in a way. We then moved to New York when I was about 11 years old with my dad and mom, for a year he told me everything about his mission and what my mission would be when he died. Let me tell you I was scared out of my mind, how was I going to protect these people, I barely could fight with the bully that stole my lunch in school”.
Everyone laughed at this. “You are their protector?”, asked Diane.
“In a sense, I mean not yet, my father would have to die first, my father hasn’t been a good protector anyway because he won’t admit it but he is scared to death of the FBI getting him again. I got dreams from him when I was younger about his time there and trust me it wasn’t pretty, that’s why I put up with his attitude sometimes, he is a lot more human they he wants to admit”.
“Oh I got a question, what about this Nasedo guy that Max told me about”, asked Phillip.
“He betrayed us we thought he was helping us but I guess I was wrong”, said sullen Max.
“Umm he was, I mean I think he felt guility with Kivar, he negated on the contract, that’s why the skins killed him. I’m not saying her was good, far form it in fact, but he tried to make it up I guess in his on way, but I guess he never took it into consideration that Tess would go with the deal even if he told her not to”, said Serena.
Everyone looked at her in surprise. “How do you know that?”, asked Michael.
“My dad, told me about Nasedo’s plan to kill the skins, so you wouldn’t have to deal with them, but he never told my dad, about the deal , if he did, my dad would have sent me hear to warn you.”, replied Serena.
Zan was surprised that this woman was supposed t protect him and the others. She was tiny and small. She looked very much like Liz. I guess him and Max have always had the same taste in woman. They loved woman with dark features even on Antar. He wasn’t going to let Serena do this alone though.
“What about this Kivar person are they coming back?”, asked a scared Diane.
Her babies were fighting some type of battle a war really that was going on some other planet. Zan looked at her expression and pulled his mom close and kissed her forehead. Max looked at this and smiled but the smiled faded when he remembered he had to answer her.
“Yeah all of us will, I hate to say it but we have to be prepared, in Serena’s house there is a gym and we will train there. Serena and the rest of the girls are taking self defense classes and so are the rest of us”, said Max trying to reassure his mother.
He knew that he really didn’t though because she looked more scared. Zan just rocked her back and forth trying to soothe her. They all knew that this war was going to happen and most likely it was going to happen on Earth they just had to be ready.
The next week or so everyone was busy either moving in or moving out.
“Michael which room do you want?”, asked Serena looking at her new home.
Michael was a little shocked at the size of his new home.

Zan was surprised that this woman was supposed t protect him and the others. She was tiny and small. She looked very much like Liz. I guess him and Max have always had the same taste in woman. They loved woman with dark features even on Antar. He wasn’t going to let Serena do this alone though.
“What about this Kivar person are they coming back?”, asked a scared Diane.
Her babies were fighting some type of battle a war really that was going on some other planet. Zan looked at her expression and pulled his mom close and kissed her forehead. Max looked at this and smiled but the smiled faded when he remembered he had to answer her.
“Yeah all of us will, I hate to say it but we have to be prepared, in Serena’s house there is a gym and we will train there. Serena and the rest of the girls are taking self defense classes and so are the rest of us”, said Max trying to reassure his mother.
He knew that he really didn’t though because she looked more scared. Zan just rocked her back and forth trying to soothe her. They all knew that this war was going to happen and most likely it was going to happen on Earth they just had to be ready.
Chapter 25:
Serena got of her day dream when Zan leaned in and whispered in her ear, “What are you thinking about, it better be of me naked”.
Serena turned in his arms and smiled at his beautiful face. God she loved this man.
“No I was thinking about last week, at the dinner party about what max said, I haven’t been doing my job protecting you guys”, said Serena lowering her head.
Zan tilted her chin up to make her look at him, “Not protecting us, baby you came back in time do protect us, please your father is the one not doing his job, I love you don’t you understand you are not in this alone, we are going to protect each other, we won’t lose this time, because I think we finally got it right this time”, said Zan smiling down looking into her lovely violet eyes.
Man she wasn’t of this earth no human had beautiful eyes like that, violet who knew.
“Got what right?”, asked Liz.
Everyone was standing looking at the couple and heard what Serena had said about not protecting them.
“In the past we were with the wrong people, Max you were trusting Vilondra, as was I and we got screwed because of it, this time we don’t have that problem, with Tess we know the deal now. Two people came from the future with information that we need to get us through any obstacles that happens you know and besides I think the Ten of us are strong now together then ever before”, said Zan looking at the others.
Everyone understood what he was saying all this week they felt this strong pull to be together like it was kismet or something, it probably was thought Maria.
“I know what you mean it’s like we formed the v formation two people to each star. Liz and Max headed the V formation as King and Queen of Antar”, said Maria.
Everyone turned around and looked at her. Something clicked in Serena’s eyes and she ran into her room that as next to Michael’s.
“Where is she going?”, asked Maria.
Serena came back as soon as she said this and pulled out a long tube. She opened the tube on the ground and motioned for everyone to sit down. Kyle looked at her and could see the wheels turning in her head. He wondered what was up.
“Serena what is going on?”, asked Kyle.
“Maria just gave me an idea, she said that we fit into the V formation right?”, said Serena looking at everyone ot see if they were listening.
“Yeah so?”, asked Michael.
“Look the four square was made on Antar it was believed to be the four most powerful people on Antar, but that couldn’t be right, if two out of the four were tainted”, said Serena.
“Yeah so?”, asked Kyle.
“Alright f they were so powerful how come we died, how was Kivar able to do what they did, I got the answer”, said Serena.
Max looked at her and motioned with his hand to continue. “Max you saw the royal seal right, it was the V formation in your head right?”, asked Serena.
“It looked like this right?”, asked Serena showing everyone the map of Antar and the surrounding planets.
Everyone was amazed at the picture.
“Yeah that’s it”, said Max.
“Okay then why does everyone keep on saying that the symbol of the four square is the strongest, It can’t be the V formation would have to be, we got our energy from the planet its everyone still living on Antar does, so the strength of power wouldn’t be from the four people standing in the four square but rather from all of us taking a position in the V formation”, said Serena.
Everyone looked at her like she lost her mind.
“Serena I’m not following how does this explain what Maria was talking about”, said Max.
Liz’s eyes looked at Serena and it clicked in her mind too.
“The V formation is stronger then the four square, we make up a v formation, Zan coming into our group completed it, don’t you guys feel the pull, its like we are meant to be, like its”
“Kismet”, everyone said.
Everyone looked at each other and looked surprised that everyone answered the same thing.
“We are finally with the people we are supposed to be with and nothing can mess that up anymore, we got rid of all the obstacles that destiny threw us, from Tess to Zan and Alex dying.”, said Serena.
“But I don’t understand there is ten people but Five stars how will that work”, asked a confused Michael.
“Like I said we found our soul mates”, said Serena.
“So?”, asked Michael.
“What is a soul mate Michael? It’s two people, two parts of one whole. Its your other part, your partner in crime so to speak, so that means that each pair of soul mate would govern each star of the V formation like we are supposed to, in fact everyone get up get next to your soul mate, and form the v formation, Max and Liz are at the front”, said Serena.
Everyone did as they were told and each pair held hands facing each other. The all felt the humm of power, then the light show began. Stars and green and purple lights swirled around them. Max's seal came forward as well as Liz’s. The swirling symbol appeared on the ground before them and opened open. In a voice that clearly wasn’t speaking English said, “ It has begun, the prophecy has been fulfilled”.
Everyone stared in shock. They could now hear everyone’s thoughts and feelings. They were connected in a deeper level.
“What the hell was that?”, asked Kyle.
Ava was staring in shock.
“It was us having the upper hand, we can know share each other’s gift, we are a part of a whole, we are completed”, replied Liz.
The handprint on her stomach glowed brightly. Her son understood. She knew he did. He was to be the next king he would also find his V formation too. Max looked at the hand print and covered Liz’s belly. He felt the connection right away and knew the battle this time would be on their terms. This war would finish here on Earth.
Maria looked at her family eating in Serena’s kitchen. She smiled at that her family. After the connection of everyone in the V formation, they talked about what exactly this meant and how will this help them.
“So this means we are more powerful?”, asked Kyle while eating his slice of pizza.
“Yeah, I mean, we have each others gifts now, healing, blasting, freezing, everything, that means that we can fight harder now”, said Serena.
Maria spoke up “Do you think Kivar knew about the V formation?”.
“Nah, I believe he thought that the four square was the most powerful, like everyone else thought, that’s why he tainted it by getting Ava and Vilondra on his side, which I hate to say it wasn’t that hard of a task to do”, said Serena wiping pizza from Zan’s chin. Everyone chuckled at his disgruntled look at Seren’a mother hen act.
“DO you think Kivar knows about this V thing?”, asked Maria.
“NO I don’t think so, because like everyone else on Antar they believe strongly in the power of the four square, that’s why Ava was cloned, I didn’t want to I wanted to send Amelia down instead, but the queen mother told me I had to send it down this way. I mean Callie had to send it down, Callie being my past self.
“I was going to ask you about that, I mean why would you send Ava instead and why the rest of us weren’t sent?”, asked Isabel.
“ Me and Zan, might not be King Zan and princess Vilondra but we were royalty too and was brother and sister to Max and Lonnie, why were we not sent?”, asked Isabel.
“I can answer that, the experiment in cloning was very new, Amelia and Me were not sure if it was going to work but Amelia had a vision of us getting killed by Kivar and we had to try, anyway, like the rest of Antar we also believe that the four square couldn’t be broken that this was the most powerful force on Antar. That’s why Amelia didn’t fight for Zan, even though he was her husband and why even though everyone knew that Rath was married to Layla they wanted him to leave her and marry Vilondra so that the four square’s ties could not be broken. Vienna and Xavier that’s your name on Antar were not part of the four square. What’s ironic is that even though they didn’t send you down, you got sent down atleast your souls did. Thank god the queen mother ordered me to send both Avas because at the time I didn’t know that my sisiter’s soul would be part of the supposed royal four”, ended Serena with a sigh.
“I know I can’t believe it” said Ava.
“Oh well now we know something that Kivar doesn’t”, said Michael.
“I think its romantic”, said Maria after a long pause.
Kyle looked at her and rolled his eyes, “How is betrayal, treason, and death romantic?”, asked Kyle.
“Not that part, the part of us being together in every lifetime, we fight for this love, its got to mean something. I mean is our love that important, it must be. I think Zan was right, we finally got it right in this lifetime and timeline, even Future Max wanted to change things but he was wrong, you Liz and Max and everyone in this room are proof that soul mates exist”, said Maria.
Serena looked at her and smiled, “She’s right you know, my powers are not fully there yet, but I remember seeing us on Earth during the Salem witch trials you know. We were together then too, but destiny kept getting in the way. Fate can do but so much”, said Serena.
“I thought that Fate and Destiny were the same thing”, said Zan.
“NO its not, destiny changes, it gives us obstacles and it is the one thing that tests Fate. Fate is what is meant to be, it makes us recognize our soul mates, but we have free will, we make decisions that can be bad or good and those decisions effect the end results you know. God or whoever is in charge of this thing put us together or at least in close quarters and he or she gives us the right to chose whether or not we are going to let destiny interfere.”, said Serena.
“Wow, that is wow, I don’t know what to say to that, it makes sense though, how do you know that?”, asked Liz.
“Its just something I believe in you know, but having these powers of mine helps too. Like for instance let’s look at the day that Max saved you he could have made the choice to leave or not save you which would have maybe resulted in you guys not being together and basically Maria, Kyle, Valenti, and Alex not knowing your secret. Or let’s change the person, would you have saved Maria if she were the one to get shot, or would have Michael been the one to risk his life to save her. You know each decision has a consequence, that’s why these future versions of ourselves keep coming back to change it, change destiny.” Said Serena.
“Yeah before he disappeared he told me that we make our own destiny”, said Liz.
“Yeah we do, we can change our destinies too”, said Serena.
“Alright all this talk about life, is tiring let’s do something else”, said Kyle.
“Umm let’s go to this club out in Santa Fe they got a singing thing we can do, we can win money for it too”, said Maria.
“Cool, I haven’t been clubbing in a long time”, said Zan.
“Alright let’s roll, we can meet here at 8 o clock and drive down there”, said Isabel.
“I got to pick out an outfit in all these boxes, I should be ready though”, said Serena.
Zan got up and kissed her mouth gently and said, “You’re my soul mate, I love you”.
“I love you too”, replied Serena.
Everyone walked out the door and got into there cars, while Michael and Serena waved them good bye. Michael shut the door and felt the hairs on the back of his neck stand up.
“What’s wrong?”, said Serena looking concerned she felt his nervousness in their connection meaning the rest of the guys felt it too.
“I don’t know I feels like someone is walking on my grave”, said Michael.
Serena looked scared when he said this. “I don’t know Serena its like I feel something it wrong or something is coming”, said Michael. “Your right we have to stick together and always train, I think that the fight with Kivar is coming soon”, said a sullen Michael.
Serena gasped and hugged Michael tightly. Michael’s arms came around her and held her just as tight. One tear flowed down her check. The first battle is coming.
Serena got of her day dream when Zan leaned in and whispered in her ear, “What are you thinking about, it better be of me naked”.
Serena turned in his arms and smiled at his beautiful face. God she loved this man.
“No I was thinking about last week, at the dinner party about what max said, I haven’t been doing my job protecting you guys”, said Serena lowering her head.
Zan tilted her chin up to make her look at him, “Not protecting us, baby you came back in time do protect us, please your father is the one not doing his job, I love you don’t you understand you are not in this alone, we are going to protect each other, we won’t lose this time, because I think we finally got it right this time”, said Zan smiling down looking into her lovely violet eyes.
Man she wasn’t of this earth no human had beautiful eyes like that, violet who knew.
“Got what right?”, asked Liz.
Everyone was standing looking at the couple and heard what Serena had said about not protecting them.
“In the past we were with the wrong people, Max you were trusting Vilondra, as was I and we got screwed because of it, this time we don’t have that problem, with Tess we know the deal now. Two people came from the future with information that we need to get us through any obstacles that happens you know and besides I think the Ten of us are strong now together then ever before”, said Zan looking at the others.
Everyone understood what he was saying all this week they felt this strong pull to be together like it was kismet or something, it probably was thought Maria.
“I know what you mean it’s like we formed the v formation two people to each star. Liz and Max headed the V formation as King and Queen of Antar”, said Maria.
Everyone turned around and looked at her. Something clicked in Serena’s eyes and she ran into her room that as next to Michael’s.
“Where is she going?”, asked Maria.
Serena came back as soon as she said this and pulled out a long tube. She opened the tube on the ground and motioned for everyone to sit down. Kyle looked at her and could see the wheels turning in her head. He wondered what was up.
“Serena what is going on?”, asked Kyle.
“Maria just gave me an idea, she said that we fit into the V formation right?”, said Serena looking at everyone ot see if they were listening.
“Yeah so?”, asked Michael.
“Look the four square was made on Antar it was believed to be the four most powerful people on Antar, but that couldn’t be right, if two out of the four were tainted”, said Serena.
“Yeah so?”, asked Kyle.
“Alright f they were so powerful how come we died, how was Kivar able to do what they did, I got the answer”, said Serena.

Chapter 26:
“I won’t anything happen to you Serena, it will be okay, we killed Kivar in the other lifetime so this lifetime will not be a big deal”, said Michael.
“Yeah, your right, let’s get ready, for this club thing Maria was talking about”, said Serena walking away from Michael and into her bed-room.
She looked through the boxes that held all her party clothes. She wanted to feel sexy tonight so she decided to wear her white corset top and her black striped pants. She still felt Michael’s anxiety and she was worried but she intended to have fun tonight, with her family and her man. She smiled when she thought of Zan. She was not going to ruin this. She was going to be with the love of her life. She hadn’t told the rest of them that she remembered them clearly now from Antar. She was scared mainly because Zan died in her arms. She promised herself that she would not let that happen again.
Meanwhile in Max’s jeep everyone felt Michael’s anxiety.
“My brother is scared Max, I don’t like this”, said a worried Liz.
Max reached out and held her hand. He felt it too but he knew that Michael didn’t want to talk about it now and he would talk about later when he was ready.
“I know baby, it will be okay, we will talk to Michael later, but tonight we are going to enjoy the night alright”, said Max.
“Yeah, okay, I love you so much”, said Liz.
“I love you too”, replied Max.
He looked at her rubbing her belly and smiled. He loved when she did that. He loved the fact that he and Liz created something together. He was still worried about her though. She never really confronted her rape. Just thinking about that got him so angry and guilty. He should have been there for her and he failed her.
“You didn’t fail me, I feel safe with you and Nicholas will get what he deserves. I have been seeing a therapist that Serena suggested and the girls have been there for me Max, don’t worry I can handle it and if I can’t I’ll come to you I promise”, said Liz.
“How did you know what I was thinking?” asked Max raising his eyebrows.
“I know because I am your other half don’t you know that Max our connection is stronger now you just have to focus and you will be hear my thoughts too, but please don’t do it often because I meant be having thoughts that are not so kosher about you”, said Liz laughing.
“What kind of thought, are they erotic or something?” asked Max.
“Maybe”, said Liz giggling.
Max just smiled at her laughing face. Man she is beautiful.
“Thank you, your not so bad yourself”, said Liz.
“I’m going to have to get used to this, but I like it, its intimate”, said Max.
She smiled at him again. She unconsciously rubbed her belly again; she didn’t even notice that she does that.
“You know that you rub your belly a lot”, said Max.
“Oh I didn’t notice I did that”, said Liz.
“Don’t stop I think it’s beautiful when you do that”, said Max.
He reached over and covered her hand with his rubbing her belly with her. It seemed to soothe her because her eyes drifted close. When he reached the Crash down and looked at her and found her asleep. He got out of the car and opens her door and picked her up in his arms. She didn’t wake up but burrowed into his arms. She sighed I her sleep and mumbled “Max”. Max smiled at this, she was thinking about him. Was he an idiot to actually feel butterflies in his stomach when she thought of him?
“NO your not an idiot, you’re my heart”, said Liz looking up at his beautiful amber eyes.
She reached up and kissed him hard. By this time they reached her bedroom and were laying on the bed.
When they separated for air, Max asked, “Where are your parents?”
“They are away this week on some restaurant promoting thing in California”, said Liz.
“Let me get ready for this club”, said Liz.
She pulled off her t-shirt and took off her jeans in front of Max when she turned around his mouth was hanging open. She reached for him and closed it for him kissing him gently.
“What are you ding Liz, do you want me to leave the room while you change?” asked a dazed Max.
Man she was beautiful.
“No I don’t Max you’ve seen every part of me and every part belongs to you, you can watch if you want, I know you want to considering the fact that little Max down there is standing up at attention,”, teased Liz.
Max looked down and blushed.
“Put I mean I know we have done this but I mean we just remembered it I don’t want to make you feel uncomfortable”, said Max.
“Your not making me feel uncomfortable, I love you Max, do you know that?” said Liz.
“Yeah I know its just amazing sometimes, I can’t believe you loved me as long as I loved you”, said Max looking at Liz taking off her bra.
She was going to kill him.
“Believe it Max, you’re my soul mate, I loved you man times and I will continue to love you forever”, replied Liz.
Liz came to stand in front of Max and his eyes dropped to her breast he was trying not to do that but it was right there.
“Do you like what you see?” asked Liz in a deeper voice.
“Yeah, very much, you’re killing me Liz”, replied Max.
“Umm that’s the plan”, said Liz rubbing against him.
Max gasped and looked at her desire filled eyes. Yup she was trying to kill him. He could play this game too. He reached out with his mouth and took her nipple into his mouth and sucked.
She moaned and replied “Max we can do this later, we got to meet the others”, said Liz.
“NO let me finish this, I want you to cum before we leave”, said Max.
He licked her chest and sucked again. She just withered under his touch and came right there. She fell on top of him and sighed. She reached down and unbuckled his pants and reached inside his pants and took out his penis and brought it to her mouth.
“Liz we don’t have time, I got to go home and change too”, said Max in a voice he didn’t recognize.
“We got time, let me make you cum.”, said Liz.
Liz bent down and took his manhood into her mouth and sucked. Max groaned and moaned loudly.
“God, Liz it feels so good, so good”, said Max as he looked down at Liz bobbing her head on his penis.
He continued to look at her and felt the orgasm that was coming from his toes all the way to his groin.
He threw his head back and shouted, “Liz, oh God, don’t stop”.
He came right in her mouth and Liz swallowed. She kissed the tip of his penis and got up.
“Do you feel better”, asked Liz.
“Yeah much better” replied Max.
He kissed her there, he couldn’t stop himself.
“Let me get dressed okay”, said Liz.
Max just nodded his head. She got undressed and walked around her room comfortable in front of Max. He had his hands behind his head and watched her parade around the room. Liz chose and pink halter top and a long pink skirt.
She modeled for Max and asked, “What do you think?”
“You look amazing”, said Max sincerely.
“Aww thanks, let’s go”, said Liz grabbing a light sweater and grabbed Max’s hands making him stand up off the bed.
They walked to the jeep where they drove next to Max’s house so he could get dressed. At his house he shows Isabel, Zan and Alex hanging the kitchen already dressed. Isabel looked nice in her red top and black leather pants. Alex was dressed casually in the same colors. Zan opted to wear white and black.
“Hey you guys, Max go get ready, Maria is coming here in a few minutes”, said Isabel.
“Why is she coming here?”
“Oh she wanted to ride with us instead of going alone in the Jetta.” replied Alex.
“Oh alright” replied Max.
He walked up the stairs into his room followed by Liz where she sat down on his bed. She closed her eyes and rubbed her belly again. Max looked at his girl and smiled and kissed her forehead. She opened her eyes and kissed him on the mouth.
“Get dressed Max, or we will never leave this room”, said Liz stroking his face.
“Oh alright”, said Max.
He went to his closet and pulled out black pants and a black shirt. He got undressed and looked at Liz looking at him.
He was beginning to feel self- conscious when she said, “Max, god you’re sexy”, and then blushed.
He just laughed at her blushing face and kissed her again. He got dressed and lifted Liz off his bed.
“Come let’s go meet the others”, said Max.
When they reached downstairs they heard Maria and the others laughing. Maria was dressed in a khaki colored dress and had her hair down around her face. The dress was short showing her impressive legs.
“Let’s roll, Ava and Kyle said they were meeting us at Serena and Michael’s”, said Maria.
She looked at her best-friend’s face and saw contentment there and saw her rubbing her stomach again. She has been doing that a lot lately she wondered if she even noticed. Everyone walked out of the house and got into a car. Maria and Zan rode with Alex and Isabel in their car and left Max and Liz in the jeep to themselves. They arrived at Serena’s within 20 minutes and walked up to the front of the door and before Max rang the bell Serena opened the door looking beautiful. Zan had his mouth hanging open. She walked up to him and kissed his mouth.
“Damn girl you trying to kill a brother”, said Zan.
Everyone just laughed at him. Serena was wearing her corset that showed off her nice sized chest and regular pants her hair was braided in a French braid and had little flowers in it. Max heard laughing in the house and walked in finding Ava and Kyle tickling each other.
Kyle looked up and said, “Hey guys, don’t you all clean up nice. And what is up with every couple matching?”
He was wearing blue shirt and black pants and Ava was wearing the same color just a short very short skirt.
“Ava I think you should change, that skirt is too short”, said Michael walking into the room wearing a white shirt and khaki pants.
He looked at Maria and noticed what Kyle was saying about the matching outfit.
“Its not short big brother it’s just not long”, replied Ava rolling her eyes at Michael’s over-protective behavior.
It’s only been two weeks but she was used to his behavior by now. Max just laughed at Ava and Michael arguing at her clothing. He hated to admit it, it was really short. He heard Michael telling Kyle that he shouldn’t let her wear skirts like that.
Kyle laughed and said, “Oh yeah, I’m going to tell her what to do, are you nuts?”
Maria went up to Michael when he was going to say something and kissed him hard on the mouth.
Michael looked dazed and asked, “What were we talking about again?”
Everyone laughed at him and Maria looked satisfied with her actions.
“Let’s go dancing my friends”, said Serena.
“You guys didn’t answer my question about the matching outfits”, said Kyle.
“I don’t match with Liz”, said Max.
“Yeah you do, you are wearing one color just like her”, said Kyle.
“I don’t know we didn’t know that we were doing it”, said Serena.
Serena was the last one out the house and locked it with her key and her powers. Zan was in front her and they walked to her jeep holding hands. Michael was driving with Maria in the passenger seat. Zan opened the door for Serena and got in on the other said of the backseat. Michael was arguing with Maria about her skirt that was also short but not as short as Ava’s while Serena looked at each other and rolled their eyes. Serena cuddled up to Zan smelling his scent and he kissed the top of her head.
Zan looked at Michael in the front and asked him, “Michael what was all that panic before I thought I was going to have a heart attack”, asked Zan.
Serena stiffened in his arms and he rubbed her back in slow circles trying to soothe her.
Maria turned at this and said, “Yeah, space-boy I was worried” she grabbed his hand and kissed it.
Michael told him what happened and everyone looked scared a bit.
“Look let’s just enjoy tonight and we will worry about it tomorrow”, said Michael.
Everyone nodded and Serena closed her eyes and sighed. Zan was worried but he would give it just one night.
Meanwhile in Ava and Kyle’s car, they felt the fear again.
“We are going to ask Michael about this panic he is feeling I don’t like my brother being scared”, said Ava.
Kyle nodded and kissed her hand not taking his eyes off the road.
“We will, don’t worry” said Kyle.
He was worried though. He didn’t know if he was ready to fight yet.
“You will fight fine Kyle I know that”, said Ava reading his mind.
“How did you know what I was thinking” asked Kyle.
“I don’t know I guess our connection is getting better, I like it do you like it I mean”, asked Ava.
“Yeah I do, just try not going into my dreams, I don’t want you to see, me dreaming about your naked body”, said Kyle in a serious tone.
Ava just laughed at him and kissed him on the cheek. “I love you Ava”, said Kyle looking into her blue eyes.
He already discussed this with his dad and his dad loved her already like his own daughter, he wanted to marry her someday soon.
“I love you too Kyle, so much”, said Ava tearing up a little.
She leaned her head on his shoulders and sighed. She was happy; she would worry about what her brother had to say, tomorrow.
Alex and Isabel were also discussing their fears about Michael’s panic.
“I don’t like it Alex, Michael doesn’t get scared easily, something scared him”, said Isabel wringing her hands together something that she noticed she had been doing a lot lately.
“I’m sure he will tell us what’s wrong at least tomorrow, I think he needs time to process it you know”, said Alex running his finger up and down Isabel’s palm.
He didn’t know how he knew that but he did. God he loved her.
“I love you too Alex”, said Isabel.
“I didn’t say that out loud”, said Alex.
“You didn’t, I guess, our connection is stronger, I wonder if we can reach the others too”, said Isabel.
In Max and Liz’s car they weren’t doing much talking they were just enjoying the ride. Liz held onto Max’s hands and caressed her belly with the other hand. She knew she couldn’t keep doing this in public because people would look at her weird but she knew that the baby like it. He little boy loved being connected with his mom. The thought brought tears to her eyes.
“What wrong sweetheart”, asked Max after seeing her tears.
Liz turned at looked at her soul mate and smiled.
She reached up and smoothed his worry lines on his beautiful face and replied, “ Don’t worry Max, I ‘m just thinking that we are going to have a son, me and you”. Max let out a sigh and smiled at her,
“I know its amazing, I never been happier in my life”, said Max also getting tears in his eyes.
Liz wiped them away and felt his rolling emotions through their connection; she proceeded to send her love to comfort him.
“Thank you Max”, said Liz softly.
“For what?” asked Max.
“For giving me life”, replied Liz.
He took his eyes off the road and looked at her and said, “NO thank you Liz”, said Max.
“For what?” asked Liz.
“For giving me a reason to live”, said Max.
Tears leaked from Liz’s eyes and she laughed a little and said, “Damn hormones, they make me cry too much”.
“Its okay, I don’t mind the crying”, said Max.
They finally reached the club and they heard Serena and Maria shout together, “Let’s get this party started”. Max and Liz looked at each other and laughed.
“I won’t anything happen to you Serena, it will be okay, we killed Kivar in the other lifetime so this lifetime will not be a big deal”, said Michael.
“Yeah, your right, let’s get ready, for this club thing Maria was talking about”, said Serena walking away from Michael and into her bed-room.
She looked through the boxes that held all her party clothes. She wanted to feel sexy tonight so she decided to wear her white corset top and her black striped pants. She still felt Michael’s anxiety and she was worried but she intended to have fun tonight, with her family and her man. She smiled when she thought of Zan. She was not going to ruin this. She was going to be with the love of her life. She hadn’t told the rest of them that she remembered them clearly now from Antar. She was scared mainly because Zan died in her arms. She promised herself that she would not let that happen again.
Meanwhile in Max’s jeep everyone felt Michael’s anxiety.
“My brother is scared Max, I don’t like this”, said a worried Liz.
Max reached out and held her hand. He felt it too but he knew that Michael didn’t want to talk about it now and he would talk about later when he was ready.
“I know baby, it will be okay, we will talk to Michael later, but tonight we are going to enjoy the night alright”, said Max.
“Yeah, okay, I love you so much”, said Liz.
“I love you too”, replied Max.
He looked at her rubbing her belly and smiled. He loved when she did that. He loved the fact that he and Liz created something together. He was still worried about her though. She never really confronted her rape. Just thinking about that got him so angry and guilty. He should have been there for her and he failed her.
“You didn’t fail me, I feel safe with you and Nicholas will get what he deserves. I have been seeing a therapist that Serena suggested and the girls have been there for me Max, don’t worry I can handle it and if I can’t I’ll come to you I promise”, said Liz.
“How did you know what I was thinking?” asked Max raising his eyebrows.
“I know because I am your other half don’t you know that Max our connection is stronger now you just have to focus and you will be hear my thoughts too, but please don’t do it often because I meant be having thoughts that are not so kosher about you”, said Liz laughing.
“What kind of thought, are they erotic or something?” asked Max.
“Maybe”, said Liz giggling.
Max just smiled at her laughing face. Man she is beautiful.
“Thank you, your not so bad yourself”, said Liz.
“I’m going to have to get used to this, but I like it, its intimate”, said Max.
She smiled at him again. She unconsciously rubbed her belly again; she didn’t even notice that she does that.
“You know that you rub your belly a lot”, said Max.
“Oh I didn’t notice I did that”, said Liz.
“Don’t stop I think it’s beautiful when you do that”, said Max.
He reached over and covered her hand with his rubbing her belly with her. It seemed to soothe her because her eyes drifted close. When he reached the Crash down and looked at her and found her asleep. He got out of the car and opens her door and picked her up in his arms. She didn’t wake up but burrowed into his arms. She sighed I her sleep and mumbled “Max”. Max smiled at this, she was thinking about him. Was he an idiot to actually feel butterflies in his stomach when she thought of him?
“NO your not an idiot, you’re my heart”, said Liz looking up at his beautiful amber eyes.
She reached up and kissed him hard. By this time they reached her bedroom and were laying on the bed.
When they separated for air, Max asked, “Where are your parents?”
“They are away this week on some restaurant promoting thing in California”, said Liz.
“Let me get ready for this club”, said Liz.
She pulled off her t-shirt and took off her jeans in front of Max when she turned around his mouth was hanging open. She reached for him and closed it for him kissing him gently.
“What are you ding Liz, do you want me to leave the room while you change?” asked a dazed Max.
Man she was beautiful.
“No I don’t Max you’ve seen every part of me and every part belongs to you, you can watch if you want, I know you want to considering the fact that little Max down there is standing up at attention,”, teased Liz.
Max looked down and blushed.
“Put I mean I know we have done this but I mean we just remembered it I don’t want to make you feel uncomfortable”, said Max.
“Your not making me feel uncomfortable, I love you Max, do you know that?” said Liz.
“Yeah I know its just amazing sometimes, I can’t believe you loved me as long as I loved you”, said Max looking at Liz taking off her bra.
She was going to kill him.
“Believe it Max, you’re my soul mate, I loved you man times and I will continue to love you forever”, replied Liz.
Liz came to stand in front of Max and his eyes dropped to her breast he was trying not to do that but it was right there.
“Do you like what you see?” asked Liz in a deeper voice.
“Yeah, very much, you’re killing me Liz”, replied Max.
“Umm that’s the plan”, said Liz rubbing against him.
Max gasped and looked at her desire filled eyes. Yup she was trying to kill him. He could play this game too. He reached out with his mouth and took her nipple into his mouth and sucked.
She moaned and replied “Max we can do this later, we got to meet the others”, said Liz.
“NO let me finish this, I want you to cum before we leave”, said Max.
He licked her chest and sucked again. She just withered under his touch and came right there. She fell on top of him and sighed. She reached down and unbuckled his pants and reached inside his pants and took out his penis and brought it to her mouth.
“Liz we don’t have time, I got to go home and change too”, said Max in a voice he didn’t recognize.
“We got time, let me make you cum.”, said Liz.
Liz bent down and took his manhood into her mouth and sucked. Max groaned and moaned loudly.
“God, Liz it feels so good, so good”, said Max as he looked down at Liz bobbing her head on his penis.
He continued to look at her and felt the orgasm that was coming from his toes all the way to his groin.
He threw his head back and shouted, “Liz, oh God, don’t stop”.
He came right in her mouth and Liz swallowed. She kissed the tip of his penis and got up.
“Do you feel better”, asked Liz.
“Yeah much better” replied Max.
He kissed her there, he couldn’t stop himself.
“Let me get dressed okay”, said Liz.
Max just nodded his head. She got undressed and walked around her room comfortable in front of Max. He had his hands behind his head and watched her parade around the room. Liz chose and pink halter top and a long pink skirt.
She modeled for Max and asked, “What do you think?”
“You look amazing”, said Max sincerely.
“Aww thanks, let’s go”, said Liz grabbing a light sweater and grabbed Max’s hands making him stand up off the bed.
They walked to the jeep where they drove next to Max’s house so he could get dressed. At his house he shows Isabel, Zan and Alex hanging the kitchen already dressed. Isabel looked nice in her red top and black leather pants. Alex was dressed casually in the same colors. Zan opted to wear white and black.
“Hey you guys, Max go get ready, Maria is coming here in a few minutes”, said Isabel.
“Why is she coming here?”
“Oh she wanted to ride with us instead of going alone in the Jetta.” replied Alex.
“Oh alright” replied Max.
He walked up the stairs into his room followed by Liz where she sat down on his bed. She closed her eyes and rubbed her belly again. Max looked at his girl and smiled and kissed her forehead. She opened her eyes and kissed him on the mouth.
“Get dressed Max, or we will never leave this room”, said Liz stroking his face.
“Oh alright”, said Max.
He went to his closet and pulled out black pants and a black shirt. He got undressed and looked at Liz looking at him.
He was beginning to feel self- conscious when she said, “Max, god you’re sexy”, and then blushed.
He just laughed at her blushing face and kissed her again. He got dressed and lifted Liz off his bed.
“Come let’s go meet the others”, said Max.
When they reached downstairs they heard Maria and the others laughing. Maria was dressed in a khaki colored dress and had her hair down around her face. The dress was short showing her impressive legs.
“Let’s roll, Ava and Kyle said they were meeting us at Serena and Michael’s”, said Maria.
She looked at her best-friend’s face and saw contentment there and saw her rubbing her stomach again. She has been doing that a lot lately she wondered if she even noticed. Everyone walked out of the house and got into a car. Maria and Zan rode with Alex and Isabel in their car and left Max and Liz in the jeep to themselves. They arrived at Serena’s within 20 minutes and walked up to the front of the door and before Max rang the bell Serena opened the door looking beautiful. Zan had his mouth hanging open. She walked up to him and kissed his mouth.
“Damn girl you trying to kill a brother”, said Zan.
Everyone just laughed at him. Serena was wearing her corset that showed off her nice sized chest and regular pants her hair was braided in a French braid and had little flowers in it. Max heard laughing in the house and walked in finding Ava and Kyle tickling each other.
Kyle looked up and said, “Hey guys, don’t you all clean up nice. And what is up with every couple matching?”
He was wearing blue shirt and black pants and Ava was wearing the same color just a short very short skirt.
“Ava I think you should change, that skirt is too short”, said Michael walking into the room wearing a white shirt and khaki pants.
He looked at Maria and noticed what Kyle was saying about the matching outfit.
“Its not short big brother it’s just not long”, replied Ava rolling her eyes at Michael’s over-protective behavior.
It’s only been two weeks but she was used to his behavior by now. Max just laughed at Ava and Michael arguing at her clothing. He hated to admit it, it was really short. He heard Michael telling Kyle that he shouldn’t let her wear skirts like that.
Kyle laughed and said, “Oh yeah, I’m going to tell her what to do, are you nuts?”
Maria went up to Michael when he was going to say something and kissed him hard on the mouth.
Michael looked dazed and asked, “What were we talking about again?”
Everyone laughed at him and Maria looked satisfied with her actions.
“Let’s go dancing my friends”, said Serena.
“You guys didn’t answer my question about the matching outfits”, said Kyle.
“I don’t match with Liz”, said Max.
“Yeah you do, you are wearing one color just like her”, said Kyle.
“I don’t know we didn’t know that we were doing it”, said Serena.
Serena was the last one out the house and locked it with her key and her powers. Zan was in front her and they walked to her jeep holding hands. Michael was driving with Maria in the passenger seat. Zan opened the door for Serena and got in on the other said of the backseat. Michael was arguing with Maria about her skirt that was also short but not as short as Ava’s while Serena looked at each other and rolled their eyes. Serena cuddled up to Zan smelling his scent and he kissed the top of her head.
Zan looked at Michael in the front and asked him, “Michael what was all that panic before I thought I was going to have a heart attack”, asked Zan.
Serena stiffened in his arms and he rubbed her back in slow circles trying to soothe her.
Maria turned at this and said, “Yeah, space-boy I was worried” she grabbed his hand and kissed it.
Michael told him what happened and everyone looked scared a bit.
“Look let’s just enjoy tonight and we will worry about it tomorrow”, said Michael.
Everyone nodded and Serena closed her eyes and sighed. Zan was worried but he would give it just one night.
Meanwhile in Ava and Kyle’s car, they felt the fear again.
“We are going to ask Michael about this panic he is feeling I don’t like my brother being scared”, said Ava.
Kyle nodded and kissed her hand not taking his eyes off the road.
“We will, don’t worry” said Kyle.
He was worried though. He didn’t know if he was ready to fight yet.
“You will fight fine Kyle I know that”, said Ava reading his mind.
“How did you know what I was thinking” asked Kyle.
“I don’t know I guess our connection is getting better, I like it do you like it I mean”, asked Ava.
“Yeah I do, just try not going into my dreams, I don’t want you to see, me dreaming about your naked body”, said Kyle in a serious tone.
Ava just laughed at him and kissed him on the cheek. “I love you Ava”, said Kyle looking into her blue eyes.
He already discussed this with his dad and his dad loved her already like his own daughter, he wanted to marry her someday soon.
“I love you too Kyle, so much”, said Ava tearing up a little.
She leaned her head on his shoulders and sighed. She was happy; she would worry about what her brother had to say, tomorrow.
Alex and Isabel were also discussing their fears about Michael’s panic.
“I don’t like it Alex, Michael doesn’t get scared easily, something scared him”, said Isabel wringing her hands together something that she noticed she had been doing a lot lately.
“I’m sure he will tell us what’s wrong at least tomorrow, I think he needs time to process it you know”, said Alex running his finger up and down Isabel’s palm.
He didn’t know how he knew that but he did. God he loved her.
“I love you too Alex”, said Isabel.
“I didn’t say that out loud”, said Alex.
“You didn’t, I guess, our connection is stronger, I wonder if we can reach the others too”, said Isabel.
In Max and Liz’s car they weren’t doing much talking they were just enjoying the ride. Liz held onto Max’s hands and caressed her belly with the other hand. She knew she couldn’t keep doing this in public because people would look at her weird but she knew that the baby like it. He little boy loved being connected with his mom. The thought brought tears to her eyes.
“What wrong sweetheart”, asked Max after seeing her tears.
Liz turned at looked at her soul mate and smiled.
She reached up and smoothed his worry lines on his beautiful face and replied, “ Don’t worry Max, I ‘m just thinking that we are going to have a son, me and you”. Max let out a sigh and smiled at her,
“I know its amazing, I never been happier in my life”, said Max also getting tears in his eyes.
Liz wiped them away and felt his rolling emotions through their connection; she proceeded to send her love to comfort him.
“Thank you Max”, said Liz softly.
“For what?” asked Max.
“For giving me life”, replied Liz.
He took his eyes off the road and looked at her and said, “NO thank you Liz”, said Max.
“For what?” asked Liz.
“For giving me a reason to live”, said Max.
Tears leaked from Liz’s eyes and she laughed a little and said, “Damn hormones, they make me cry too much”.
“Its okay, I don’t mind the crying”, said Max.
They finally reached the club and they heard Serena and Maria shout together, “Let’s get this party started”. Max and Liz looked at each other and laughed.
Chapter 27:
They entered the club and Serena dragged Zan to the dance floor. A fast paced song was vibrating throughout the small dance floor and throughout the whole club. The rest of the gang found a large table that sat ten people. Kyle and Ava got up and danced with Ava rubbing her body against Kyle and him getting too excited about it, until he saw Michael drilling holes into his head with his eyes. He pulled her a little away but she turned to him and kissed him soundly on the lips. God he loved her.
Isabel sat down talking to Alex that was next to her and Liz and Max were off in there staring in the soul mate eyes thing that they do. Maria dragged an unwilling Michael on the dance floor. Michael really wasn’t a dancer but he swayed back and forth hold onto Maria’s gyrating hips. Damn how did she learn how to dance like that he thought.
“Serena taught me”, said Maria.
A surprised Michael looked at her and she just whispered into his ears “Our connection is strong like it was always”.
Michael nodded his head and kissed her softly on the mouth.
Serena was dancing up against Zan who was trying hard to keep up with her rolling hips. She turned around and slowed down for him, and put her arms around his neck.
“I love you so much,” said Serena.
He smiled and replied “I love you too”.
She started moving in slow circular circles onto his hips rolling hips and he had to clench his teeth not to hump her on the dance floor.
“Serena you are killing me, “, said Zan in a low voice.
“I know, I love when you lose control”, said Serena grinding up against him even more.
Serena heard the song change to her and Ava’s favorite song and she saw Ava coming towards her. It was a Spanish song that they loved from the sound track Dance With Me.
“Oh shit Ava, it’s our song”, said Serena.
She walked out of Zan’s arms and joined Ava on the dance floor and moving her hips while the guys looked on. She and Ava bounced up and down with the fast beat while everyone in the club watched on. Liz, Max, Isabel, Alex, and the rest watch as their friends family danced up on each other.
“Kyle is it wrong that I’m turned on by this”, asked Zan.
“I know what you mean, god, she touching her like that”, said Kyle.
Serena’s hips were moving in such a fast beat that is was even hard for Ava to keep up. Serena turned around and faced the two boys. She nodded to Ava and Ava nodded also and walked up to Zan and Kyle. Serena put Zan’s hands on her hips and he looked down mesmerized by her hips. Her arms where up over her head and she was smiling at him. Kyle was in a similar position. They both were in Awe.
Max just laughed at his brother and Kyle they looked like they were going to die from a hard on. Serena walked out of Zan’s hands and turned around drawing him over to her with her fingers and he returned his hands to her hips pulling her against his body though. By that time everyone was cheering while the song came to an end. Zan looked down at Serena when the song ended and kissed her.
“God you are trying to kill me”.
Serena just giggled in response. A slow song came on and the rest of the gang got on the dace floor when Sheryl Crow’s voice singing Leaving Las Vegas boomed through the speakers. Liz held onto Max tightly as Sheryl’s words floated through her system. He remembered his flash of Liz in the wedding dress and looked down at Liz looking up at him.
She smiled and said, “I remember, I remember”.
He kissed her with all the passion that he could. God he wanted her as his wife in his arms forever.
“I know I want to be there too”, said Liz reading his mind again.
“We will I promise, Liz we will be husband and wife, soon”, said a determined Max.
The song came to an end and everyone retuned to their table discussing and laughing about Serena and Ava’s seductive dance.
“Man my sisters are going to give me a heart attack I swear, Liz you and Isabel better not do this to me”, said Michael putting his head on the table.
Maria rubbed his back while she laughed. Isabel smiled, happy that Michael still considered her his sister.
A young woman came on the stage that was in the front on the club and announced that they would be a singing group contest and the winners won 500 dollars. Maria was excited jumping up and down in her seat.
“We got to do this you guys, please”, said Maria.
“Liz I know you can sing”, said Maria.
“Ava and Serena can sing also and play guitar and the drums”, said Zan.
“You can make it a girls band type thing”, said Zan.
He remembered when he was 12 years old and Serena teaching him and Ava how to play the drums and guitar.
“Zan, it’s been a while since I played, what if I forget”, said Serena.
“NO you won’t you loved it too much”, said Zan.
“What about this, Ava you play drums, Serena you are on guitar, and Maria you and Liz will sing”, suggested Kyle.
“I know Isabel can’t do anything musical though”, said Max.
“Hey”, replied Isabel hitting him in the arm.
“You know it’s true, I’m not even going to tell everyone about 5th grade winter pageant”, said Max laughing.
Everyone laughed except Ava, Serena, ad Zan. “Mind explaining to us, what happened”, said Zan.
“Oh yeah, Isabel had to sing Silent Night and she was so bad that the microphone was cut off, you figured out later that it was our fifth grade teacher Mr. Raddish that shut it off, he couldn’t stand the noise”, said Max laughing. Isabel just hit him hard on the head.
“Shut up Max”, said Isabel.
“Don’t let me remind them about you singing outside of Liz’s window with that Spanish mariachi band”, said Isabel.
Max just blushed hard. His whole face turned red and so did his ears.
“What Max is a good singer and he looked so adorable in the hat”, said Liz dreamily while the others laughed at him.
“Oh god you didn’t”, said Michael.
“Yeah he did”, said Isabel.
Everyone continued to laugh while Maria signed up the girls for the singing contest.
“Well we are signed up”, said Maria coming back to sit at the table.
“What song are we doing?” asked Liz.
She was getting butterflies in her stomach she never sang in public before. Maria walked up to her and said it in her ears.
Liz looked at her friend and said, “Really?”
“Yeah, I know that it’s special to you”, said Maria.
“Mind telling the rest of us that has to play it”, said Serena.
Maria walked up to Ava and Serena and told them secretly.
“What about the rest of us?” asked Alex.
“It’s a surprise, oh we got to sing two songs so, enjoy, let’s go girls it’s almost time for us”, said Maria.
Various groups came on stage, some were good, and some were down right awful.
“Well our next group is 4 girls, that call them selves, Antar, give it up”, said the announcer.
Everyone at the table looked at the stage when they heard that name and smiled moving their heads back and forth in a negative manner.
“Well at least they didn’t call the group alien”, said Kyle.
Everyone just laughed. Max looked at Liz walking on stage and his heart stopped. How did she do that to him? All the guys were thinking the same thing about there respective girlfriends. Ava took her position in the back at the drums and Serena took the guitar. She smiled at Maria and Liz taking their position at the microphones.
Serena knew at Liz was nervous and went up and hugged her and whispered in her ears, “Sing for the heart, he is listening”
Liz smiled and said, “I know”.
“Our first song is “Feels Like Home by Chantal Kreviazuk, hope you like it” said Maria.
Serena guitar started the first beat and Liz’s beautiful voice came into the microphone singing the first voice. She closed her eyes and sang with her heart like Serena told her.
“Something in your eyes, makes me want to lose myself, makes me want to lose myself in your arms”, sang Liz slowly.
She opened her eyes when Maria’s voice joined hers and looked into Max’s eyes. His eyes held so much love that her voice cracked a little bit, with tears.
“Feels like home to me, feels like home to me”, she sang with Maria and heard Ava and Serena coming in and singing the song with her. They must have felt the tears coming.
They gave her support. Maria looked at Liz and smiled. Michael was staring at Maria when he heard Liz’s voice crack a little; his baby sister had unshed tears in her eyes, looking at Max. He smiled and returned his attention back to Maria.
Maria looked at him and sang loudly “Feels like home to me, Feels home to me, Feels like I’m all the way back to where I belong”, ending the song.
Serena’s guitar note was the last note they heard before the whole club erupted in cheers. The girls smiled. Liz looked at her friends and felt like she was home.
“Our next song, is a Sheryl Crow song, I think you going to love it”, said Maria, looking at Max and Liz.
Liz took a deep breath and Serena began with her guitar. Slowly the song became clear to Max and he smiled.
“Come to me now and lay your hands over me, even if it’s a lie say it will be alright, I’ll shall believe”, sang Liz not looking at Max for fear that she might cry.
Tears leaked from Max’s eyes when he heard the song. He got flashes from the night, where he created his child with his soul mate. Liz rubbed her belly while she held the micro phone with her other hand. Isabel saw her brother crying she touched his hand. He looked at her and smiled. By this time Maria’s voice joined Liz.
“Please say honestly that you won’t give up on me, I shall believe”. Serena’s solo guitar came up and she looked at Zan and smiled.
He knew and she knew that this was meant to be.
Liz sang with her whole heart and soul “I shall believe, I shall believe, I shall believe”, she repeated over and over again.
Kyle looked at his girl playing the drums gently. She was gentle and loving. Ava looked up and saw Kyle staring at him and she smiled.
She mouthed the words that always got his heart racing “I love you, forever”.
“I shall Believe”, sang Liz ending the song and looking down at Max that had tears in his eyes. She smiled down at him and mouthed the words “We love you” rubbing her belly.
“I love you guys too”, replied Max.
Everyone cheered in the club again while the girls made their way to their friends. The announcer came the microphone about ten minutes later and answered the winner
“Well the judges have reached a decision”, she paused for dramatic affect.
“The girl group Antar has won”, she screamed into the microphone.
Maria squealed loudly hugging Michael and kissing him hard.
“It feels like home to me”, said Michael looking into his pixie’s eyes.
“Yes it does”, replied Maria.
The four girls went up and got their check. Maria and Serena squealed when they were handed a trophy as well. Serena took the trophy and handed Liz it.
“You deserved it, it’s you and Maria who made us win you guys sang from your hearts and the judges felt that”, said Serena kissing Liz’s cheeks and kissing Maria’s as well.
Ava smiled as well and said, “Ditto”.
They walked down the stage and their family hugged them like crazy.
“Well I think this 500 dollars should be split 10 ways so that’s 50 bucks a person”, said Maria.
Everyone looked at her in surprise.
“We didn’t sing or do anything why do we get money?” asked Isabel.
Maria walked up to her and took her hands into hers and said, “Well you have been taking care of those two over there”, pointing at Michael and Max.
“Alex has been taking care of me and Liz, Max has been taking care of everyone, Michael took care of me when Alex was dead, and Zan took care of Ava and Serena, and Kyle took care of Liz and Ava, we are family and families take care of one another and so this money is nothing but our family fund”, said Maria.
Isabel smiled at her and hugged her.
“Do you guys want to stay or go to my house and watch movies”, asked Serena.
“Let’s go I’m tired and movies sound good now”, said Liz hugging Max.
“Alright let’s roll”, said Kyle.
You could hear the good- natured banter about what movies to watch and Kyle suggesting porn and hearing Ava curse at him for that suggestion. Michael said no chick flicks when Maria suggested Titanic. Serena and Zan just laughed at them. Serena turned around and looked into the cold eyes of on the judges. She felt a shiver go down her spine.
“What’s wrong”, asked Zan.
“That judge something is wrong with him”, said Serena.
Zan looked over and saw it too before the judge disappeared in the crowd of people.
“We need to tell the others”, said Zan.
Serena nodded her head and headed towards the car. She trembled.
Zan saw this and wrapped his arms around her and said, “Rena is going to be alright”
But silently he said I hope but Serena heard him in her mind.
They entered the club and Serena dragged Zan to the dance floor. A fast paced song was vibrating throughout the small dance floor and throughout the whole club. The rest of the gang found a large table that sat ten people. Kyle and Ava got up and danced with Ava rubbing her body against Kyle and him getting too excited about it, until he saw Michael drilling holes into his head with his eyes. He pulled her a little away but she turned to him and kissed him soundly on the lips. God he loved her.
Isabel sat down talking to Alex that was next to her and Liz and Max were off in there staring in the soul mate eyes thing that they do. Maria dragged an unwilling Michael on the dance floor. Michael really wasn’t a dancer but he swayed back and forth hold onto Maria’s gyrating hips. Damn how did she learn how to dance like that he thought.
“Serena taught me”, said Maria.
A surprised Michael looked at her and she just whispered into his ears “Our connection is strong like it was always”.
Michael nodded his head and kissed her softly on the mouth.
Serena was dancing up against Zan who was trying hard to keep up with her rolling hips. She turned around and slowed down for him, and put her arms around his neck.
“I love you so much,” said Serena.
He smiled and replied “I love you too”.
She started moving in slow circular circles onto his hips rolling hips and he had to clench his teeth not to hump her on the dance floor.
“Serena you are killing me, “, said Zan in a low voice.
“I know, I love when you lose control”, said Serena grinding up against him even more.
Serena heard the song change to her and Ava’s favorite song and she saw Ava coming towards her. It was a Spanish song that they loved from the sound track Dance With Me.
“Oh shit Ava, it’s our song”, said Serena.
She walked out of Zan’s arms and joined Ava on the dance floor and moving her hips while the guys looked on. She and Ava bounced up and down with the fast beat while everyone in the club watched on. Liz, Max, Isabel, Alex, and the rest watch as their friends family danced up on each other.
“Kyle is it wrong that I’m turned on by this”, asked Zan.
“I know what you mean, god, she touching her like that”, said Kyle.
Serena’s hips were moving in such a fast beat that is was even hard for Ava to keep up. Serena turned around and faced the two boys. She nodded to Ava and Ava nodded also and walked up to Zan and Kyle. Serena put Zan’s hands on her hips and he looked down mesmerized by her hips. Her arms where up over her head and she was smiling at him. Kyle was in a similar position. They both were in Awe.
Max just laughed at his brother and Kyle they looked like they were going to die from a hard on. Serena walked out of Zan’s hands and turned around drawing him over to her with her fingers and he returned his hands to her hips pulling her against his body though. By that time everyone was cheering while the song came to an end. Zan looked down at Serena when the song ended and kissed her.
“God you are trying to kill me”.
Serena just giggled in response. A slow song came on and the rest of the gang got on the dace floor when Sheryl Crow’s voice singing Leaving Las Vegas boomed through the speakers. Liz held onto Max tightly as Sheryl’s words floated through her system. He remembered his flash of Liz in the wedding dress and looked down at Liz looking up at him.
She smiled and said, “I remember, I remember”.
He kissed her with all the passion that he could. God he wanted her as his wife in his arms forever.
“I know I want to be there too”, said Liz reading his mind again.
“We will I promise, Liz we will be husband and wife, soon”, said a determined Max.
The song came to an end and everyone retuned to their table discussing and laughing about Serena and Ava’s seductive dance.
“Man my sisters are going to give me a heart attack I swear, Liz you and Isabel better not do this to me”, said Michael putting his head on the table.
Maria rubbed his back while she laughed. Isabel smiled, happy that Michael still considered her his sister.
A young woman came on the stage that was in the front on the club and announced that they would be a singing group contest and the winners won 500 dollars. Maria was excited jumping up and down in her seat.
“We got to do this you guys, please”, said Maria.
“Liz I know you can sing”, said Maria.
“Ava and Serena can sing also and play guitar and the drums”, said Zan.
“You can make it a girls band type thing”, said Zan.
He remembered when he was 12 years old and Serena teaching him and Ava how to play the drums and guitar.
“Zan, it’s been a while since I played, what if I forget”, said Serena.
“NO you won’t you loved it too much”, said Zan.
“What about this, Ava you play drums, Serena you are on guitar, and Maria you and Liz will sing”, suggested Kyle.
“I know Isabel can’t do anything musical though”, said Max.
“Hey”, replied Isabel hitting him in the arm.
“You know it’s true, I’m not even going to tell everyone about 5th grade winter pageant”, said Max laughing.
Everyone laughed except Ava, Serena, ad Zan. “Mind explaining to us, what happened”, said Zan.
“Oh yeah, Isabel had to sing Silent Night and she was so bad that the microphone was cut off, you figured out later that it was our fifth grade teacher Mr. Raddish that shut it off, he couldn’t stand the noise”, said Max laughing. Isabel just hit him hard on the head.
“Shut up Max”, said Isabel.
“Don’t let me remind them about you singing outside of Liz’s window with that Spanish mariachi band”, said Isabel.
Max just blushed hard. His whole face turned red and so did his ears.
“What Max is a good singer and he looked so adorable in the hat”, said Liz dreamily while the others laughed at him.
“Oh god you didn’t”, said Michael.
“Yeah he did”, said Isabel.
Everyone continued to laugh while Maria signed up the girls for the singing contest.
“Well we are signed up”, said Maria coming back to sit at the table.
“What song are we doing?” asked Liz.
She was getting butterflies in her stomach she never sang in public before. Maria walked up to her and said it in her ears.
Liz looked at her friend and said, “Really?”
“Yeah, I know that it’s special to you”, said Maria.
“Mind telling the rest of us that has to play it”, said Serena.
Maria walked up to Ava and Serena and told them secretly.
“What about the rest of us?” asked Alex.
“It’s a surprise, oh we got to sing two songs so, enjoy, let’s go girls it’s almost time for us”, said Maria.
Various groups came on stage, some were good, and some were down right awful.
“Well our next group is 4 girls, that call them selves, Antar, give it up”, said the announcer.
Everyone at the table looked at the stage when they heard that name and smiled moving their heads back and forth in a negative manner.
“Well at least they didn’t call the group alien”, said Kyle.
Everyone just laughed. Max looked at Liz walking on stage and his heart stopped. How did she do that to him? All the guys were thinking the same thing about there respective girlfriends. Ava took her position in the back at the drums and Serena took the guitar. She smiled at Maria and Liz taking their position at the microphones.
Serena knew at Liz was nervous and went up and hugged her and whispered in her ears, “Sing for the heart, he is listening”
Liz smiled and said, “I know”.
“Our first song is “Feels Like Home by Chantal Kreviazuk, hope you like it” said Maria.
Serena guitar started the first beat and Liz’s beautiful voice came into the microphone singing the first voice. She closed her eyes and sang with her heart like Serena told her.
“Something in your eyes, makes me want to lose myself, makes me want to lose myself in your arms”, sang Liz slowly.
She opened her eyes when Maria’s voice joined hers and looked into Max’s eyes. His eyes held so much love that her voice cracked a little bit, with tears.
“Feels like home to me, feels like home to me”, she sang with Maria and heard Ava and Serena coming in and singing the song with her. They must have felt the tears coming.
They gave her support. Maria looked at Liz and smiled. Michael was staring at Maria when he heard Liz’s voice crack a little; his baby sister had unshed tears in her eyes, looking at Max. He smiled and returned his attention back to Maria.
Maria looked at him and sang loudly “Feels like home to me, Feels home to me, Feels like I’m all the way back to where I belong”, ending the song.
Serena’s guitar note was the last note they heard before the whole club erupted in cheers. The girls smiled. Liz looked at her friends and felt like she was home.
“Our next song, is a Sheryl Crow song, I think you going to love it”, said Maria, looking at Max and Liz.
Liz took a deep breath and Serena began with her guitar. Slowly the song became clear to Max and he smiled.
“Come to me now and lay your hands over me, even if it’s a lie say it will be alright, I’ll shall believe”, sang Liz not looking at Max for fear that she might cry.
Tears leaked from Max’s eyes when he heard the song. He got flashes from the night, where he created his child with his soul mate. Liz rubbed her belly while she held the micro phone with her other hand. Isabel saw her brother crying she touched his hand. He looked at her and smiled. By this time Maria’s voice joined Liz.
“Please say honestly that you won’t give up on me, I shall believe”. Serena’s solo guitar came up and she looked at Zan and smiled.
He knew and she knew that this was meant to be.
Liz sang with her whole heart and soul “I shall believe, I shall believe, I shall believe”, she repeated over and over again.
Kyle looked at his girl playing the drums gently. She was gentle and loving. Ava looked up and saw Kyle staring at him and she smiled.
She mouthed the words that always got his heart racing “I love you, forever”.
“I shall Believe”, sang Liz ending the song and looking down at Max that had tears in his eyes. She smiled down at him and mouthed the words “We love you” rubbing her belly.
“I love you guys too”, replied Max.
Everyone cheered in the club again while the girls made their way to their friends. The announcer came the microphone about ten minutes later and answered the winner
“Well the judges have reached a decision”, she paused for dramatic affect.
“The girl group Antar has won”, she screamed into the microphone.
Maria squealed loudly hugging Michael and kissing him hard.
“It feels like home to me”, said Michael looking into his pixie’s eyes.
“Yes it does”, replied Maria.
The four girls went up and got their check. Maria and Serena squealed when they were handed a trophy as well. Serena took the trophy and handed Liz it.
“You deserved it, it’s you and Maria who made us win you guys sang from your hearts and the judges felt that”, said Serena kissing Liz’s cheeks and kissing Maria’s as well.
Ava smiled as well and said, “Ditto”.
They walked down the stage and their family hugged them like crazy.
“Well I think this 500 dollars should be split 10 ways so that’s 50 bucks a person”, said Maria.
Everyone looked at her in surprise.
“We didn’t sing or do anything why do we get money?” asked Isabel.
Maria walked up to her and took her hands into hers and said, “Well you have been taking care of those two over there”, pointing at Michael and Max.
“Alex has been taking care of me and Liz, Max has been taking care of everyone, Michael took care of me when Alex was dead, and Zan took care of Ava and Serena, and Kyle took care of Liz and Ava, we are family and families take care of one another and so this money is nothing but our family fund”, said Maria.
Isabel smiled at her and hugged her.
“Do you guys want to stay or go to my house and watch movies”, asked Serena.
“Let’s go I’m tired and movies sound good now”, said Liz hugging Max.
“Alright let’s roll”, said Kyle.
You could hear the good- natured banter about what movies to watch and Kyle suggesting porn and hearing Ava curse at him for that suggestion. Michael said no chick flicks when Maria suggested Titanic. Serena and Zan just laughed at them. Serena turned around and looked into the cold eyes of on the judges. She felt a shiver go down her spine.
“What’s wrong”, asked Zan.
“That judge something is wrong with him”, said Serena.
Zan looked over and saw it too before the judge disappeared in the crowd of people.
“We need to tell the others”, said Zan.
Serena nodded her head and headed towards the car. She trembled.
Zan saw this and wrapped his arms around her and said, “Rena is going to be alright”
But silently he said I hope but Serena heard him in her mind.
Chapter 28:
Serena looked at Zan’s eyes and could tell he was worried but he was trying his best not to make her nervous about that judge. She knew who it was and she was going have to tell the rest of them that they had to get ready to fight.
“You know who he is don’t you?”, asked Zan.
Serena nodded her head and looked at him again after chewing nervously on her bottom lip. Zan take his thumb and swiped his thumb over her mouth indicating to her not to abuse her lips that way.
She smiled at him and answered, “We are going have to train that’s Kivar’s little brother, and let me tell you if he is here Kivar or Nicholas is not far behind”.
Zan’s eyes widen and he pulled Serena into his embrace. He would die before he let anything happen to her.
Reading his thoughts Serena replied, “You can’t die understand , I can’t go through that again, I went through it twice before I can’t handle it again, I pretended to Ava that I was alright when she told me but I died Zan do you understand Brian was an escape for me so the pain wouldn’t consume me, please you can’t leave me, I need you okay”.
Serena had tears following down her eyes. She knew she was over-reacting but she couldn’t help it. The thought of losing him was too painful. She just couldn’t live through that again. Zan looked at her and wiped away her tears.
“I won’t leave you, I promise Serena, you’re my life. What do you mean twice?”, asked Zan.
Serena looked at him again in his beautiful amber eyes and kissed him softly on the mouth and said, “On Antar you died in my arms, I have been getting my memories back, I guess my powers are growing or something, but anyway, Kivar sneaked into our room and killed you from back. I walked in a little while later, and saw you dying. God there was blood everywhere and you just smiled at me and told me that you loved me and that we will be together forever. Zan I didn’t get to tell you I was pregnant. I kissed you and you left me. It was the most painful experience of my entire life. I lost Rath and Amelia and everyone else was on the verge of dying the only two people alive were me and Max and god, he saved me and got himself killed. He also died in my arms. He didn’t want to live I know that because Amelia was dead but God I wanted to die then. Kivar just laughed at me while I cried over Max’s body and He shot me killing me”, said Serena tearfully.
Michael came in searching for Zan and Serena because him and Maria had been waiting in the car for ten minutes and the others had already gone to his house. He started feeling his sister’s panic and saw Zan holding his crying sister. He went into protective mode and walked up to them.
“What the hell happened”, asked Michael.
Zan looked at him with tears in his eyes and Michaels’ anger turned into fear. Zan hardly ever cried what the hell is going on.
“Kivar’s brother is here, he was one of the judges. Serena saw him oh god”, said Zan.
Michael looked at the man who loved his sisiter, the man wo was his best-friend’s brother, the man he considered a brother also felt his fear. He never felt anything like that in his life. He usually felt his sisters and Maria and on occasion Max and Isabel but never felt Zan. Their connection to each other must be getting stronger and if that was the case, if one of them were to get hurt they would all feel it too. That fact worried him.
“Let’s go to the house and talk to everyone else, about everything okay, and then we will watch some movies and try to get some sleep”, said Michael in a calm voice while his heart was bounding fast in his chest.
He was scared out of his mind which meant that the others were feeling it too. Zan nodded his head and followed Michael to the car with his arms wrapped closely around Serena.
“I feel his fear again I don’t like this at all”, said Liz while sitting in Serena’s house with the others.
Ava looked scared she was also feeling Serena’s fear. She didn’t like it one bit. She had always been close with Serena, when she learned that Serena was her sister it was the happiest day of her life. She didn’t like Serena feeling fear. The other’s connection with her is not strong enough yet but Ava knew that they felt Serena’s fear too.
Alex looked around and couldn’t stand the amount of anxiety that was in the room. Max looked tense, Isabel, Liz, and Ava was showing large amounts of fear, and Kyle was wringing his hands together like Isabel does when she is scared. He didn’t like what Kivar, Nicholas, and Tess were doing to his family. Whenever he remembered Tess he felt his stomach flip with disgust and pain. She killed him. If it wasn’t for Serena he wouldn’t be alive today. That thought alone scared him. He didn’t want to die, and he didn’t want any of his family to die. He loved them more then words could describe. He was home in every sense of the word. He wouldn’t let those bastards hurt his family. His thoughts wandered to about a couple of days after the meeting with the Evan’s.
“Yo Alex, pass me the remote control”, said Zan.
They all decided to have a guy’s day thing while the girls went shopping for God knows what. Alex tossed the remote to Zan and continued to watch Max and Michael have an argument on the importance of the body count in Braveheart.
“I’m telling you Max its 288 I saw it”, said Michael.
“No its not its 287 you counting that head twice”, said Max in a reply that Alex just found funny.
Alex bust out laughing.
“What’s so funny Whitman”, asked Kyle watching the sports channel with Zan on the couch of the Valenti house.
“Nothing I just find it funny, that the king and his second-in-command are talking about head counts”, said Alex laughing again.
Max and Michael glared at him and Max replied, “Well at least we are warriors while your biggest threat is Isabel and her decorating magazines”.
Everyone bust out laughing when both Alex and Zan shuddered.
“Shut up like you not scared of her, I don’t care what any one says that woman is scary”, said Alex.
They just continued laughing and enjoy their supposed guys day with out the girls.
“I wonder what the girls are doing?”, asked Kyle.
He hated to admit is but he missed Ava.
“God you whupped”, said Zan throwing a pillow at Kyle’s head.
“Yeah like you are not wondering the same thing about where Serena is and what Victoria Secret underwear she buying”, said Kyle throwing the pillow back at his head.
“How do you know that they are at Victoria Secret’s?”, asked Michael.
“Oh I saw Ava flipping through those magazines and she said that they were going, Liz was there too Max and asked my opinion on this one”, said Kyle showing him the red teddy on page 24. Max’s eyes widen and rolled back in the back of his head imagining Liz in that.
“She said she was going to buy that?”, asked a suddenly dry-mouthed Max.
“Yup but she said something to Serena about getting in black, but Serena insisted that she should get it in red so she could get the black one”, said Kyle smiling when Zan’s head turned so fast he looked like he could get whip lash.
“Let me see that”, said Zan.
He looked at the picture and closed his eyes. Visions of Serena taking that off got him too hot for words.
“Isabel and Maria were there too, if you want to know what they were going to get”, said Kyle in a smirk.
Michael and Alex looked at him and said, “Spill it Valenti”.
Kyle pointed to Various stuff that he had to give his opinion on when the girls were at his house. They actually thought he could actually give useful information on the topic. They just made him horny.
“Damn you think they will by that stuff?”, asked Alex fanning himself.
“Yup Serena got her credit card and wanted to spend her father’s money you know”, said Kyle frowning.
He hated how Langely treated Serena. She cried after talking to him that’s why the girls were at his house in the first place. She was sleeping over until she got her own house. Ava called the girls over to get Serena’s mind of it.
Zan saw Kyle frowned and asked, “What’s up dude, what did that bastard do to her again?”
He could barely contain his anger, he hated Serena hurting.
“You know the usual, hateful words, I just don’t get it Serena’s is his flesh and blood, why does he continue to treat her like shit, I know the whole Alien thing is not the excuse he is giving her, so what is the deal?”, asked a confused Kyle.
“I don’t know its always been that way, when we were 12 he brought us ice-cream and none for her and she didn’t say anything she just said that it was normal for him to forget her”, said Zan frowning.
“That bastard, he is a dick head for real”, said Michael in an anger tone.
“I know that’s so wrong I don’t understand how anyone can treat their own flesh and blood like that besides Serena is a good person, she deserves a family that loves her you know”, said Max.
He was frowning too. This man was supposed to be their protector if he treated his own daughter that way how would he have treated them. He shuddered at the thought.
“I know my sister doesn’t deserve this, you too Michael, you didn’t deserve anything Hank did to you”, said Alex looking into Michael’s eyes.
Michael looked at him and nodded his head. He knew that was true.
“Its alright, I got you guys now, and Max and Zan’s mom is driving me crazy about dressing in a way not to get sun burn though oh god”, said Michael running his hand in his hair and shaking his head back and forth.
Everyone laughed because they knew how uncomfortable Michael was with the affection that Diane seem to shower him with.. She even asked for him to move in, but he told her while he loved that idea he wanted to live with Serena to take care of her. Phillip also welcomed Michael as part of the family and the guys were going fishing with him in two days.
Zan seemed to be the person who adjusted the most with the Evan’s affection. He loved his mom. He sat down late at night talking to her about everything from politics to love and he helped her around the house when she needed something and he always told her he loved her. She would smile at him and he just couldn’t stop saying it, he did love her.
“You know mom is just looking out for you, she felt like she abandoned you or something, she still feels guilty that she didn’t get you away from Hank fast enough”, said Zan.
“I know I told her that she doesn’t have to feel guilty, its okay its my fault that I ran off”, said Michael.
He loved that she took care of him though. She sent over those horrible foods she got from the Martha Stewart books and always gave him cash when he needed it and always invited him for dinner. He felt her love that’s all he needed really. She was his mom too, he just couldn’t say it yet, but he is getting there.
“God Zan you are such a momma’s boy”, said Max laughing.
Zan glared at him and said, “So are you don’t front”.
Zan got up and tackled his brother to the ground sitting on his head.
“Fight!!!”, yelled Alex jumping on Zan.
Kyle and Michael looked at each other and jumped in. The girls walked in to find their boyfriends wrestling on the ground.
“Ummm, what are guys doing?”, said Liz lifting up her eyebrow.
Max looked up and walked off to her and lifted her onto his shoulder and through her into the wrestling pile.
“Max you are sooo dead”, yelled Liz trying to get Michael’s foot out of her face.
All the girls got into the fight too while Serena looked at them shaking her head at their immaturity. Then she fell into the fighting pile when Zan grabbed her waist pulling her in.
“Zan that’s not funny, I swear to God”, yelled Serena.
Alex shook his head at the memory when he saw Serena and the rest walking in. It was apparent that she was crying as well as Zan.
“What’s up guys?”, asked Alex.
“Kivars’ brother is here”, said Serena crying into Zan’s arms. Everyone looked at her in shock.
Serena looked at Zan’s eyes and could tell he was worried but he was trying his best not to make her nervous about that judge. She knew who it was and she was going have to tell the rest of them that they had to get ready to fight.
“You know who he is don’t you?”, asked Zan.
Serena nodded her head and looked at him again after chewing nervously on her bottom lip. Zan take his thumb and swiped his thumb over her mouth indicating to her not to abuse her lips that way.

She would smile at him and he just couldn’t stop saying it, he did love her.
“You know mom is just looking out for you, she felt like she abandoned you or something, she still feels guilty that she didn’t get you away from Hank fast enough”, said Zan.
“I know I told her that she doesn’t have to feel guilty, its okay its my fault that I ran off”, said Michael.
He loved that she took care of him though. She sent over those horrible foods she got from the Martha Stewart books and always gave him cash when he needed it and always invited him for dinner. He felt her love that’s all he needed really. She was his mom too, he just couldn’t say it yet, but he is getting there.
“God Zan you are such a momma’s boy”, said Max laughing.
Zan glared at him and said, “So are you don’t front”.
Zan got up and tackled his brother to the ground sitting on his head.
“Fight!!!”, yelled Alex jumping on Zan.
Kyle and Michael looked at each other and jumped in. The girls walked in to find their boyfriends wrestling on the ground.
“Ummm, what are guys doing?”, said Liz lifting up her eyebrow.
Max looked up and walked off to her and lifted her onto his shoulder and through her into the wrestling pile.
“Max you are sooo dead”, yelled Liz trying to get Michael’s foot out of her face.
All the girls got into the fight too while Serena looked at them shaking her head at their immaturity. Then she fell into the fighting pile when Zan grabbed her waist pulling her in.
“Zan that’s not funny, I swear to God”, yelled Serena.
Alex shook his head at the memory when he saw Serena and the rest walking in. It was apparent that she was crying as well as Zan.
“What’s up guys?”, asked Alex.
“Kivars’ brother is here”, said Serena crying into Zan’s arms. Everyone looked at her in shock.

Chapter 29:
“What do you mean Kivar’s brother”, said Max pulling Liz into his lab so that Zan and Serena could sit down on the couch.
“The judge at the club, I felt him he is a skin I know that”, said Serena trembling.
They didn’t remember Kivar’s brother he was just as ruthless as his brother. He had a sick oppression with her that she didn’t tell Zan about yet. She knew he had to tell him.
“Zan I need to tell you something, something important okay”, said Serena looking at him with fear in her eyes.
“Kivars’ brother, his name is Nael he had this weird fasicination with”, said Serena she had a hard time getting it out.
“With you?”, asked Zan.
Serena nodded her head.
“I hated him on Antar because he wouldn’t leave you alone he tried to get you into his bed, he tried hurting you one time”, said Zan closing his eyes and remembering that time he had a full on fight with Kivar’s younger brother for daring to touch Callie/Serena.
“I remember I’m not mad, at you Serena you know that”, said Zan kissing her forehead.
“Okay you said this guy is a skin, remember when we first met you, you said you got a vision we never talked about it after, what did you see?”, asked Kyle.
“Yeah we forgot about that, you said you saw a place like Copper Summit and that they were developing new skins”, said Liz.
Now she was scared, she grabbed Max’s hands and squeezed.
“Yeah I never get visions of the future only of the past, I saw this room, like a farm and it had these bodies but they looked like they were new, I don’t know how I know that but it wasn’t of the past, I’m sure”, said Serena shaking her head.
“I knew when I saw flashes from the past, either lifetime or timeline I know the difference, I feel the difference, it’s like a sense of conclusion or it’s finished or something, I don’t know”, said Serena.
She was confused but that’s normal for being part alien.
“I never had these powers before I have no idea how seeing the past helps though, the future helps I don’t know how the past does”, said Serena.
“Well I remember what my history teacher said, you don’t know where you going if you don’t know where you came from, I mean it’s like if you don’t know your mistakes, you don’t have memories you lose a part of yourself”, said Kyle.
Everyone looked at him and raised an eyebrow.
“What I can be deep”, said Kyle shrugging his shoulders.
Ava just smiled proudly at him and kissed him softly on the mouth.
“Ohhhhh, that’s so cute”, said Liz making Kyle blush.
Everyone laughed at that losing some of the tension that was in the room.
“I hate to bring this up, what are we going to do?”, asked Michael.
“I think maybe, since my power will be to tell the future maybe I don’t know I can connect with Serena and amplifier my powers to get a better view of the vision”, said Liz.
“That sounds like a plan”, said Alex.
Liz walked up to Serena and took her face into her hands just like Max did the first time. She started getting visions of past she saw herself in the past, man she was a babe. She saw King Zan crying over her dead body while Callie/Serena rocked her back and forth wailing in pain. She sorted through all those vision until she came up to the vision of the underground skin room. It wasn’t of the future it was of the present, she now understood what Serena meant when she said she could tell the past events, they fet like they were in the past.
Liz suddenly felt a humming power going through her body, she was in the vision now looking around, she saw a sign for on the door saying Property of Rex Farms Inc. she walked through and saw various hanging bodies encased in glass. Their names were printed out on the front of the glass. It felt so real like she was actually there. She decided to walk upstairs to take a look around. The upstairs looked like a normal living room and she went outside. On road outside she saw people playing but not seeing her. Liz thought this must be how Isabel feels when she dream walks. She looked at the road and saw the sign Welcome to Nevada. She got it and saw another sign saying Murruy Lane.
She felt herself floating back to reality and heard Max’s vice yelling in a panic that she wasn’t waking up.
Her eyes opened and looked into Max’s concerned eyes and said, “Wow what a trip”
Max was not amused.
“Liz are you alright, you passed out you and Serena I was trying to wake you up for the last ten minutes both of you were like in this other world, are you alright baby?”, asked Max.
“I’m fine Max I saw everything Serena was right, it was not of the past, but of the present its in Nevada on a street called Murruy Lane”, said Liz getting up with the help of Max.
She looked over and saw Zan helping Serena up.
“You alright?”, asked Serena.
“Yeah that was a power rush, Serena you got a lot of juice for real”, said Liz.
“Yeah I just don’t know how to use of all it yet, all that power got me wired I hardly sleep, I think me giving you the power boost, is going to keep you up at night for a couple of days”, said Serena sitting on Zan’s lap resting her head on his chest for some reason she felt very tired.
“You tired baby”, asked Zan in a soothing voice.
“Yeah I gave Liz some of my powers so she going to be wired while I’m going to be tired, ohh that rhymed”, said Serena yawning.
“I think I’m going to put Serena to sleep and come back and we will discuss everything”, said Zan carrying Serena in his arms.
Everyone nodded their head and said, “Good night Serena”.
She replied in a small voice, “Night All, see you in the morning”.
Zan walked to Serena’s room and looked around. It was a girls room but not too girly just like Serena. Her furntiture was black and purple, her favorite colors and her bed spread was a light purple. She had posters on her wall, like Eminem and Metallica, Zan shook his head at that one, Michael and her were definitely brother and sister. He saw on her small dresser a picture of the whole gang in a picture frame that said best-friends for life. She saw all types of nick knacks on her dresser with a picture of him and her at the carnival they went to 4 days ago. It was her and him with her sitting on his lab facing the camera and staring into each other’s eyes, with his head leaning on her forehead. It was in a picture frame he believed she made that said Soul Mates For Life on the bottom of it. He smiled at that one.
Serena buried her head into his chest more and sighed his name. he deposited her on the bed and got the quilt that was on her chest at the foot of her bed and cover her up to her neck. He kissed her mouth softly and said I love you, and brushed her bangs from her face a little bit. God he loved her. “I love you too”, said Serena moving to lie on her stomach. He thought she was awake but her eyes her closed. How did she do that, oh well. He looked at her one more time walking out the room and closing the door softly behind him.
“She’s down, so what are we going to do?”, asked Zan.
“I think we should go there and destroy this Harvest thing they got going on”, said Michael.
He didn’t like the idea of going there but the skins had to be destroyed.
“Its dangerous, but I agree”, said Max.
Michael smiled in relief he thought everyone was going to say no.
“Yeah, we could go there before we go to meet your sister in Arizona next week Michael, we can’t tell mom and dad that’s what we doing though they will be worried and want to come”, said Zan.
“I know we just tell them we going a little bit early to see Laurie”, said Maria.
“WE got to practice our powers though, I don’t want you guys going in there un-prepared, Me and Zan are more focused and out of all of us Serena is the best, but you guys had to hide who you are and that stopped you from fully using your powers, and the rest you Kyle, Liz, Alex and Maria, well not Maria I think she will be fine I felt her power, but Kyle Liz and Alex really need to focus on your powers, and who to tap into it”, said Ava.
Everyone nodded in agreement.
“Well Zan you can teach me and Michael and Ava you focus on Kyle and Liz, while Isabel you have always been the strongest in your powers you help Alex. I think Serena can help us all”, said Max.
“Yeah and let me show you the gym room Serena was talking about it has no windows so no one will see us practicing and Serena put up protective cover so that our powers doesn’t damaged the room”, said Michael getting up and walking to the back of the house.
Michael showed him the whole layout of the room, they were impressed.
“This room is perfect, I think its big enough so everyone can show what they can do”, said Isabel.
“How come Serena didn’t show me this room, I could have decorate it”, said Isabel already thinking of ideas.
Everyone rolled their eyes at this and sighed.
“Its fine Isabel, any way you guys up for that movies, It’s a classic my friend”, said Kyle
“it better not be porn”, said Ava rolling her eyes.
“NO its not porn, it’s a scary movie, The Exorist”, said Kyle.
“Man I saw that I was so scared out my mind for real”, said Maria shuddering.
Michael but his amr around her and whispered in her ear, “You don’t have to be scared I got you always”.
She shivered at his husky voice. Michael oozed sexy. She kissed him on the mouth and said, “Alright let’s go watch”.
“I never saw it”, said Zan.
“Me neither, what’s it about?”, asked Ava.
Kyle put his arm around her and gave her the general plot.
“Alright but I don’t know it’s scary when little kids are evil”, said Ava.
They all sat down in the living room on the couch and Zan took the floor lying on his stomach. All the men had their arms around their girls, and Kyle pressed play to start the movie. All the girls screamed and squeal hiding their faces in their boyfriends arms, while Zan fell asleep.
He was dreaming a nice dream of marrying Serena on a cliff top near Max, Isabel, and Michaels’ pod chamber. That was a nice place to get married. He saw her walking down the aisle with Kal Langley, which shocked him, oh well. He saw Liz and Maria on the side singing Eva Cassidy’s “Fields Of Gold”, it was Serena’s favorite song. Everything was perfect because Isabel planned it.
Then his dream shifted. He was in a room with white walls and he saw Serena strapped to an examining table, he ran to her but a glass was in front of him, he saw the cold eyes of Agent Brooks when he took the cutting knife and starting cutting Serena’s round stomach. She was pregnant with his child. Agent Brooks was going to kill his wife and child.
“Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo”, screamed Zan waking up.
Everyone looked at his frantic eyes as he got up and ran to Serena’s room where she was also sreaming, “Zannnnnnnnnnnnnn please help, don’t please oh god, please don’t kill me”.
By that time everyone filed into Serena’s room and took in the sight of Zan and Serena rocking back and forth in each other’s arms crying.
“Please Zan don’t let them take me, please they can’t take me, I need you please”, said Serena wailing loudly.
“What is going on?”, asked Michael.
He was in over-protective mode again his sister was hurt and he felt her fear in waves, it almost knocked him off his feet.
“Its just a dream, its just a dream, please let it be a dream”, said Zan crying into Serena’s messy hair.
He couldn’t lose her, he just got her, oh god let it be a dream said Zan again.
“What did you guys see?”, asked Liz walking up to Zan and putting her hand on his shoulder.
She was then transported to Zna’s dream. She watched in horror as her sister was being cut up and her child ripped from her body. She saw Zan screaming in pain on the other side of the panel. His face was of deep pain and sadness. She almost buckled at the weight of the pain.
Liz pulled away from Zan No this can't happen”, said Liz sobbing.
Max reached for her and got the flashes of the dreams too. His eyes filled with tears quickly and he also held onto Liz with dear life.
“What is going on?”, asked a frantic Michael once again.
Both his sister were crying plus Zan and Max he looked at Max and saw utter Fear, something he only saw when Max would dream about the white room.
“All of you come here and connect with me hold hands”, said Max still crying.
He took Michael’s hand and showed them all what his biggest fear was. Everyone hit the floor at what they saw.
“Oh God, No not my sister god, no I saved from that I saved her please no I changed please this can’t happen”, sobbed Ava into Kyle’s chest.
He held her while trying to keep tears from falling from his eyes, which he wasn’t successful at. Tears streamed down his face anyway. Maria stood in shock and felt her stomach heave, she ran to the bathroom that was in Serena’s room and threw up her dinner. She threw up so much that she just fell on the floor exhausted. Michael was there right besides her holding her weak body and crying into her shoulder. He couldn’t let this happen to his sister no, he couldn’t let that happen. Alex looked down at his sister with tears in her eyes. His arms were wrapped tightly around Isabel while she wailed screams of pain for Serena.
“Oh God, Serena Oh God”, said Isabel.
He whole body shook at the vision that Max showed her. She continued to wail in pain as if she was on the examining table. It felt like she was. They all felt the knife cut through the stomach and felt Zan’s devastation. It was just too much to handle. Alex just held harder onto his girl until she exhausted herself. Kyle wasn’t having any luck with Ava though.
She was still crying loudly and she just wouldn’t stop saying, “I changed it, it’s not supposed to happen this way, please not her”.
Kyle just held onto her while she cried. He didn’t know what to do. They all didn’t know what to do. They all knew in their hearts that this was a vision of the future. As god as his witness he knew that they would stop this. He looked at his family and saw the pain. He knew they will get through this, this was just one battle they will win this war.
“What do you mean Kivar’s brother”, said Max pulling Liz into his lab so that Zan and Serena could sit down on the couch.
“The judge at the club, I felt him he is a skin I know that”, said Serena trembling.
They didn’t remember Kivar’s brother he was just as ruthless as his brother. He had a sick oppression with her that she didn’t tell Zan about yet. She knew he had to tell him.
“Zan I need to tell you something, something important okay”, said Serena looking at him with fear in her eyes.

As god as his witness he knew that they would stop this. He looked at his family and saw the pain. He knew they will get through this, this was just one battle they will win this war.
