Ch 5b..
"Huh?". Liz gasped, bedazzled and confused. What was going on. Why was she so surprised on seeing Khivar. "You-you're Khivar?".
He smiled and nodded before slowely strolling upto he until he was face to face. Cupping her face in his hands, he smirked and answered her question. "Yes darling, I am Khivar." He stroked her cheek and she looked away from his eyes. This was wrong and messed up. Totally messed up.
"Please don't touch me." Liz pleaded, unable to look into his eyes and she backed away in disgust. How could she let another man touch her?
Khivar dropped his hand away from his face. "Why Liz? Don't you like it?". He asked, clearing smirking in her face. "We're going to be married soon, so we might as well get used to be affectionate with one another."
Liz felt her jaw clench and her heart almost stop, she'll be damned if she married their enemy. Khivar was nothing but the threat of their race, their enemy who wronged them all. Instead of saying anything else, she refused to give him direct eye contact and he took this silence to fill her in the details.
"Liz, you're probably wondering if something like this happened in 'our' past life." He chuckled. "Let me assure you that..." He stopped and turned her to look at him. "There was no past life." He told her. "Of course you already know that. " He laughed. "I'll let you in another secret....My father took over the throne and ruled until now. He's the reason why your grandparents were sent to earth. He was the first known Khivar to rule. I'm his junior. Cameron Khivar Linus.I beleive on eath you would be familiar with Cameron or even Cam."
Liz flashed her eyes in shock at Cameron Khiver or whatever his name was. "Let me guess, your father passed on the throne to you and now it's time for you to appoint a queen to join you. Then you chose me..."
"You were my destiny ever since my parents picked you out for me Liz. But sadly your grandparents and parents objected, took you away with some other people and hid you away from your own destiny which is me."
"How selfish can you people ever become?". Kyle muttered, watching this from the background obviously bored.
"I can't believe you." Liz gritted her teeth in anger. "How dare you think I'd ever want someone like you?". She spat in anger, unable to control her feelings. She hated being used. "I am not a possesion, don't treat me like one." She warned him.
Most of the people in the room stopped, watched the drama. "Liz, calm down." Kyle told her. "Everyone's watching."
"I beleive you need a drink?". Khivar said, taking a grail from one of the waiter's trays and handing it to Liz. "Here, drink.."
Liz hesitated remembering Serena's words and plans to get out of here. One moment of weakness could have ruined everything, she didn't want to ruin the chance of getting back home. She looked at Kyle, then Khivar and then the grail that he was holding. Without a word, she reluctantly took the grail and drunk the sweet nectar like liquid that was stored in it. It was the sweetest thing she had ever tasted and it so so creamy..like baileys.
By the time she was finished gulping the drink down, she felt more energy inside her and felt a little tipsy. "Shall we dance?". Khivar asked her, taking her hand and tugging on her, leading her towards the dancefloor. And she followed in a daze....

Ch 6
The stench of something rotten hit Maria and almost made her gag with the feeling of about to throw up as she stepped into the hollow space that was known as the sewer. Something crunched under her right foot almost sending her off balance. If Micheal hadn't been right behind her, she would have slammed right onto her back on the hard grey concrete and worse, could have been infected with rat waste.
"Oh god, Micheal why are we even down here?". She complained as he helped her up back onto her two feet.
"Shh, Maria. We don't wanna get caught." He hissed at her.
She stuck her tongue at him and put her flashlight on. "I hate sewers." She said while the two were looking around. "I mean who the hell want's to live in a dump like this?".
"Will you be quiet?". Micheal hissed again, worried that Lonnie, Ava and anyone else who lives underneath the streets of New York would hear them and try to escape or worse attack them. Maria detested the idea of being in a sewer. She hated it so much that she could not keep quiet.
"Spaceboy seriously, I am getting naseas even with the thought of being down here. Can we please hurry up and get outta here?". She whined and then said. "You know, I think instead of hunting for a shapeshifter, we should have just found the key and a way to get to Antar to save Liz and Kyle."
"You're the only one who has the powder, Angusup!". Micheal whispered at her. "Please stop whining and concentrate."
"Yeah and if Max hadn't screwed up then maybe Liz and Kyle would have been here with us today, safe and sound." She muttered under her breath but that didn't go unnoticed by Micheal who almost flinched. Maria still resented Max for being an ass to Liz.
"Trust me Maria, he feels more bad then anyone else. I haven't seen him so depressed in my life before." Micheal told her.
"And I haven't seen anyone else suffer so much in my life before." Maria added. "What Max did with Liz is unforgivable. I'm sorry but true love isn't like that. He couldn't even barely trust her after she staged that whole sleep trick thingy. I mean what kind of love is that? you cannot feel the other person's loyalty?".
"Remember once that you didn't trust me either?". Micheal asked her, identifiying the irony in her statement.
"Atleast I didn't go around making out with a fifity year old skin, lying about it and acting suspicious." She threw back. "Us girls, me and Liz know how to stay true to our guy. Max should have known better even if Liz kept lying about her chastity. Urghh guys are so irratating. They go round fucking whores and expect their girls to stay loyal to them all the way." She rolled her eyes in fustration.
"Well me and Max may be different but...we truly love our girl." Micheal stammered, realising he was just about to pour his heart out but decided not to, not in this situation. "And FYI, Max didn't sleep with Tess, I didn't sleep with Courtney and we both still are virgins." He reminded Maria. "Don't forget that."
"FYI spaceboy, so are we." She said back with the same attitude. Suddenly a scraping sound stopped them in their tracks and Maria almost jumped, again bumping into Micheal. They shone their flashlight into the darkness before them trying to unmask the other person in the sewer.
The hard scraping sound against the concrete just became louder and louder as if it were approaching them. Suddenly it stopped.
"Ava?". Maria called, flashing her flashlight on a pair of icy blue eyes.

When you walk away, I count the steps that you take..
Do you know how much I need you right now?
When you're gone,
The pieces of my heart are missing you,
When you're gone,
The face I came to know is missing to,
Max folded his arms and peered out into the dark blue starry night hanging above him, above everything and everyone. Never in his life had he imagined the woman he loved would be this distant from him. He had felt their distance and now was seeing it too. God knew how many miles was she way from him. He was scared. Atleast when they weren't together, he knew she was around him. Safe and he could protect her while she was in his vicinity. Even though she had blocked him, he still could feel her presence if not her emotions. The connection they shared could never be severed nor ended. It was eternal. He knew it. Even if they weren't together, their bond would exist and connect their souls as one. She was his destiny. She was him.
Yet he couldn't help but feel so lonely when he saw the stars scattered across the high night sky mocking him. Even the stars remained together. He envied them. Those stars probably knew where exactly Liz was and he knew that those same stars saw Liz, something that Max couldn't possibly do right now. He wished for a magic mirror, anything just to be around Liz again.
How could he even think of leaving her in the first place? Maybe Karma was paying him back.
And he regretted even thinking of leaving Liz for Antar.
And these regrets were all because of Nasedo, Khivar and Tess most of all. Why did she have to come and part him with his soulmate? She fucked up everything because of her evilness and Max hated her, Nasedo and everyone else who put an evil eye on his relationship with Liz. She tried to take what Liz deserved. Him and everything he can offer Liz.
He always wanted to be with Liz, be married to her and have a family with her. Liz was the only one he wanted. The throne wasn't of any of his concern. Now Khivar wanted Liz. Max felt suffocated. Everything connected to him was being taken away. He felt like he was to blame. What had he done to have his everything taken away from him?
Tears filled his eyes, he looked at his photo with Liz. How content did they seem then, Her lips on his cheek, his smile because of her touch and both of their eyes read the same passion, commitment and love that they had for each other. "I miss you so much Liz." He heard his voice quiver, although he was breathing, he had stopped living.
He needed Liz. He needed her back so bad.
"Max?....". He heard a female voice call him from behind. Surprisingly that voice sounded a lot like Liz. He turned around. There she was, standing right before him. She smiled.
"I miss you too." She said with a sweet smile.
All the words that I need to hear will always get me through,
The day and make it ok,
I miss you....

Ch 7
Max woke up with the images of Liz in his head. His breathing became erratic and he knew that was no dream. It felt so real. He could feel Liz's presense even though she wasn't actually here. It felt as if her soul had reached out to him in need. Like she needed his help before a disaster overtook them.
He sat up in bed and drew his knees to his chest, sitting in the position like a little lost boy trying to figure out his way again, his way back home. Liz was his road and his one and only destination. With her gone, he was lost.
But it was possible, if she could reach out to him then Max could also try again. It showed him hope. He felt something in his hand. A charm bracelet. The bracelet he had given Liz. It somehow managed to get to him. This was a miracle. A smile broke out on his face.
Closing his eyes, he concentrated really hard and blanked out any thoughts except for Liz. It wasn't long before he was drawn in....
Liz's mind
The whirring and humming of certain musical objects filled the room and the neon lights soon followed in a blurry twister like haze and the feeling of being twirled around among these things. "Can't wait till we get married." The deep voice echoed. "I hope you're excited."
Max could see through Liz's eyes. He could feel her helplessness and vunerability. He felt sick. His eyes were straining to keep up with Liz's vision. He could hear her steady heartbeats. She wasn't herself. He then heard her laughter and felt her smile. It wasn't genuine.
"Cam, don't make me laugh." She giggled as he twirled her on the dancefloor even more. She wasn't talking but stammering more like.
"Oh, I do intend to. Your sweet laughter fills me with joy."
"Don't tease me."
"Be mine, forever." The deep male voice echoed in Max's head before the scene disentrigrated right before Max's eyes, delivering him back to reality again.
He felt that. He felt that feeling when Tess had mindwarped him. That could only mean one thing.
Liz was being mindwarped.

"I can't beleive this." Maria rejected Ava's theory, shaking her head in denial. "No, this can't be true."
"It is true." Ava urged. "I'm not a duplicate of Tess, I'm a shapeshifter who used to work for Nasedo. He trained us to defeat you and deliver Liz to Khivar's son Cameron Khivar Linus."
"So why didn't you kill us?". Micheal asked her, suspecting her. "You had the chance."
"I don't kill Micheal." Ava eyed him with dissapointment. "It's not what I do."
"So I don't get it. Why did you end up working for Nasedo?". Maria asked, becoming even more confused by Ava. Why was she so different from the others?
"I had no other choice." The identical Tess like alien argued. Her blue eyes were becoming so irratating that both Micheal and Maria had to rub their eyes. "I had to figure out what was wrong because the crash wasn't no ordinary crash. It was planned, it was a conspiracy."
"Tell me why I'm not shocked?". Maria huffed. "Everything's a damn conspiracy."
"Years ago, there were two cities on Antar. Two co-existing kingdoms of peace, loyalty and love was eyed by the evil Duke Khivar the first. He vowed to ruin us all because he wasn't granted the throne. He married me twenty eight years ago. We had a son. Cameron."
"Oh my god-" Maria gasped. "So that motherfucker fuckface Khivar is your son!?". Maria gasped, getting her hand ready to blast this Tess lookalike or whoever she was.
"Wait!, there's more." She urged with pleading eyes that weren't hers. Micheal stopped Maria from blasting her and pulled her right down beside him.
"Let her talk." He ordered.
"Micheal, she's the mother of that bastard."
"I never wanted my son to become that monster." She cried. "I tried everything. Nothing would work. So I had to leave with Cameron for a better life for the both of us. Until...." She shook her head with tears filling those blue eyes. "I was in a horrible accident. They changed me. That accident turned me into a shapeshifter. And they took my son away from me. I had no choice but to leave and pretend that I was dead. So I began to work secretly for Nasedo as someone else. I had to stop him. Then I met...someone. Fell in love and.." She was interrupted by Maria.
"Got married and had children right?". Maria rolled her eyes. "I don't see what this has to do with any of us."
"I had another son." She continued and stared at Micheal passively. "My second husband was the King of Demerius' best friend and advisor. It didn't take him long to fnid out about me and my past. I was exiled in secrecy. Again my son was taken away from me."
"Ohh so twice bitten huh?". Maria said. "But that's no reason to threaten us. We're not even in the wrong."
"I don't want to hurt anyone. I just wanted to stop Khivar and my first son from practising evil. Anyway as the years went by, your parents were sent here because Khivar had slaughtered many civilians. Some were from the royal community. Both kingdoms had to surrender their power to Khivar in order of their children's lives and other civilian lives to be saved. Your mother Maria, Liz's parents, Max's and Isabel's parents, Kyle's mother and Alex's parents had to flee, Earth was the only option. The ship was ready. The ship in 47 was a hoax, and the real ship landed twenty years ago with luck no one noticed.But we also had traitors on board. One of them was Nasedo who was one of Khivar's men. Nasedo had it all planned out. He erased each and every one of their minds right in front of me and we crashed. They had no idea who they were and resumed life again as normal human beings. My son was also on that ship along with Isabel and Max."
Micheal's eyes widened in shock as she turned to look at him. "You, you can't be..."
"Yes, Micheal." She said. "I'm your mother." She confirmed before shapeshifting into her true form right before Micheal and Maria's eyes.

Ch 8
"Yes Micheal." She said. "I'm your mother." Played over again in his head as he looked at her changing right before his eyes. The face of Tess dissapeared and morphed into a woman who had Micheal's dusty blond hair and pale green eyes. He had never seen her before.
"This is my true form." She said.
"No." Micheal denied, shaking his head. "You can't be my mother". He urged. "I'd...you cannot be my mother ever." He warned, getting up and trying back away.
"Why not?". She asked with hurt in her eyes, fearing that she'd have her son taken away from her again.
"BECAUSE IT WOULD MEAN KHIVAR IS MY HALF BROTHER!". Micheal shot out in anger, looking in disgust at the woman who claimed to be his 'mother'. Maria and the woman bothed jumped in shock at hearing Micheal's voice, Maria had seen Micheal angry at times but never this angry and the woman was frightened of losing her son.
Micheal was fired up and didn't want to accept the fact that he shared a mother with Khivar. "It was better being an orphan then sharing a mother with the enemy of your brother-like best friend." He said in a calmer deadly voice that sent chills down both Maria's and the woman's spine.
Maria decided to get up and walk to Micheal's side. "Micheal calm down, we need to think rationally now." She advised him. "We came here for help..." She said and then glanced at the woman watching them. "Not some shocking family revelation. We got to think with a cool head and besides we want to help get Liz and Kyle of that planet right?".
"Yeah you're right." Micheal agreed throwing a glance of digust of the woman before the pair began to sit down on the ripped tattered sofa again.
"Okay, now what is your name?". Maria asked the woman.
"Oquisa." She said. "That is my real name but please keep it to yourselves."
"Okay, we need your help." Maria said. "We need to find a way to Antar."
She looked at them with surprise. "There is no way left to go to Antar. The granolith has been used already and well...".
"Well what?". Maria urged.
"Unless you have the knowlege to build a transporting machine that can defy the laws of Nature." Oquisa scoffed. "Khivar knows the ins and outs of everything. He's the one who invented the granolith and he is the only one who knows the secret of teleport. Why do you think I'm here in the first place?".
"So basically you're saying, we're screwed?". Maria asked Oquisa.
"Not exactly." Oquisa bit her lip. "We still can communicate with them. I have some orbs."
"Show us em." Micheal demanded, looking her dead in the eyes.
Whoever this woman was, she was sure not going to penetrate Micheal's bubble so easily and he wasn't ready to let her in his life. Even thought a part of him wanted to, the other part held disgust and anger for her. Why did she had to be Khivar's mother also? Wasn't there enough problems in his life already that another had to come up?

Ch 8b
The intense flavour of liquer filled her nostrils as she gazed heavily into the churning liquid. Bubbles of ecstasy clouded her vision with a smokescreen, blocking her from seeing what lay ahead of her. The liquid was now streaming around her before becoming a twister around her making sure she couldn't escape...
"Liz...." .
"Huh?". Liz snapped back into reality again and looked straight at Cameron who smiled at her. It was morning and all of them were seated at the dining table. Kyle was watching Cameron eyeing Liz up. It made him extremly angry watching Liz being treated in a such a way right before his eyes and yet he felt powerless to stop it. But this wasn't over yet, not by a long shot and this Junior Khivar will get what's coming to him, Kyle thought with a smirk.
"You look beautiful." Cameron complimented her by stroking her cheek with his fingers. "God blessed me with a bride like you." He whispered and Liz didn't feel anything but found herself resuming back to her soup again.
Serena walked into the room with some more dishes and laid them out on the table. "That's the carrot soup you ordered my Lord." She told Cameron.
"Okay." He said and gestured her to leave the room. Serena gave one longing look at Kyle before leaving.
Last night was a blur to Liz, she remembered dancing with Khivar and feeling too high on those drinks she had. One after one after one. Her head was becoming to lighten up after the hangover a few hours ago in bed but she didn't feel strong emotions as she used to. Her hatred for Cameron was dissapating and she was becoming slowely like a stone, just enduring him.
"You're not married to her yet." Kyle stated, wiping his mouth with the napkin and glaring at him as if he wanted to pry his fingers off Liz and take Liz away from him.
Cameron smirked but didn't look at Kyle. "Don't worry, the wedding's soon. For now, me and my Liz will enjoy some time together as fiance's.." He murmered.
Right now, Kyle badly wanted to beat Khivar to a pulp, but at the situation he couldn't because he knew Cameron would harm him which would harm Liz and for Liz's sake, he had to endure this for a while.
When breakfast was finally over, Kyle stormed to Serena and grabbed her in his arms. "YOU said everything will be okay." He roared at her. "Nothing is okay. DO you expect me to spend everyday watching Liz getting groped and fondled by some sicko?!". He poured all his anger onto Serena, the woman he trusted when he first came here. When Liz was in coma, she was the only one who took away Kyle's lonliness and comforted him. He found solace in her and placed his hope on her that maybe she would help them. But it all came crashing down when she did nothing but aided Cameron in providing Liz with Antarian alcohol which only served her to be more vunerable to Cameron.
"Relax Kyle." Serena whispered, getting scared of Kyle's anger and noticed his eyes blazed with anger.
"NO I can't relax!". He snapped. "Can't you see?!, I want to stop this before it...." He paused, terrified of completeting the sentence.
"Before it get's too late?". Serena finished for him. "Kyle, the reason why I am doing this is to fool Cameron. I want him to think and beleive everything is going his way." She muttered under her breath. "If we mess up, we all die and god knows what he'll do to Liz."
"If he lays one finger..." Kyle warned but Serena cut him off.
"What can you do?". She challenged him. "There's nothing you can do." She told him. "Beleive me, I have seen many die at his hands."
"What do you mean?". Kyle asked.
She lowered her eyes and a single tear slipped. "Cameron killed my parents."
_______________________________________________________
"Yes Micheal." She said. "I'm your mother." Played over again in his head as he looked at her changing right before his eyes. The face of Tess dissapeared and morphed into a woman who had Micheal's dusty blond hair and pale green eyes. He had never seen her before.
"This is my true form." She said.
"No." Micheal denied, shaking his head. "You can't be my mother". He urged. "I'd...you cannot be my mother ever." He warned, getting up and trying back away.
"Why not?". She asked with hurt in her eyes, fearing that she'd have her son taken away from her again.
"BECAUSE IT WOULD MEAN KHIVAR IS MY HALF BROTHER!". Micheal shot out in anger, looking in disgust at the woman who claimed to be his 'mother'. Maria and the woman bothed jumped in shock at hearing Micheal's voice, Maria had seen Micheal angry at times but never this angry and the woman was frightened of losing her son.
Micheal was fired up and didn't want to accept the fact that he shared a mother with Khivar. "It was better being an orphan then sharing a mother with the enemy of your brother-like best friend." He said in a calmer deadly voice that sent chills down both Maria's and the woman's spine.
Maria decided to get up and walk to Micheal's side. "Micheal calm down, we need to think rationally now." She advised him. "We came here for help..." She said and then glanced at the woman watching them. "Not some shocking family revelation. We got to think with a cool head and besides we want to help get Liz and Kyle of that planet right?".
"Yeah you're right." Micheal agreed throwing a glance of digust of the woman before the pair began to sit down on the ripped tattered sofa again.
"Okay, now what is your name?". Maria asked the woman.
"Oquisa." She said. "That is my real name but please keep it to yourselves."
"Okay, we need your help." Maria said. "We need to find a way to Antar."
She looked at them with surprise. "There is no way left to go to Antar. The granolith has been used already and well...".
"Well what?". Maria urged.
"Unless you have the knowlege to build a transporting machine that can defy the laws of Nature." Oquisa scoffed. "Khivar knows the ins and outs of everything. He's the one who invented the granolith and he is the only one who knows the secret of teleport. Why do you think I'm here in the first place?".
"So basically you're saying, we're screwed?". Maria asked Oquisa.
"Not exactly." Oquisa bit her lip. "We still can communicate with them. I have some orbs."
"Show us em." Micheal demanded, looking her dead in the eyes.
Whoever this woman was, she was sure not going to penetrate Micheal's bubble so easily and he wasn't ready to let her in his life. Even thought a part of him wanted to, the other part held disgust and anger for her. Why did she had to be Khivar's mother also? Wasn't there enough problems in his life already that another had to come up?

The intense flavour of liquer filled her nostrils as she gazed heavily into the churning liquid. Bubbles of ecstasy clouded her vision with a smokescreen, blocking her from seeing what lay ahead of her. The liquid was now streaming around her before becoming a twister around her making sure she couldn't escape...
"Liz...." .
"Huh?". Liz snapped back into reality again and looked straight at Cameron who smiled at her. It was morning and all of them were seated at the dining table. Kyle was watching Cameron eyeing Liz up. It made him extremly angry watching Liz being treated in a such a way right before his eyes and yet he felt powerless to stop it. But this wasn't over yet, not by a long shot and this Junior Khivar will get what's coming to him, Kyle thought with a smirk.

Ch 9
Liz stopped brushing her hair when she saw Cameron's reflection in the mirror which she was faced, sitting down. He smiled and so did she. Turning around, she greeted him. "Hey".
"Hey my darling, you look so beautiful." Cameron smiled before walking upto her. She stood up and for a moment they stood face to face, just looking at each other before Cameron leaned in to kiss Liz very passionatly to which Liz responded with equal passion. Althought he wasn't Max, he filled in the void that Max left her in. These kisses and romantic gestures made up for what she yearned the most. To be loved, to feel love. She allowed herself to be intoxicated with Cameron's charms. Atleast she knew he would never look at anybody else but her even if she pretended to sleep with someone else or kept pushing him away, unlike Max, Cameron would not give up. That's why Liz let him kiss her and touch her.
Slowely opening her eyes while they made out, she gasped through the kisses. She saw Max. Max was kissing her back. His eyes were closed and his kisses were soft and delicate. Liz was stunned. She shut her eyes and then opened them, pulling away from Cameron she glared at him.
Cameron was surprised. "What is it darling?".
It took Liz several moments to pull herself together. "Nothing Cam." She shook her head. "It was nothing."
Since after that incident, Cameron had retreated back into his room, distraught and deeply affected by Liz pulling away in the middle of their kissing fest. What had she seen? Why had she pulled away? Wasn't the drugs he gave her working properly? He sat down on his bed and a figure appeared near the window. "Lord Cameron."
Cameron turned around to see Tess in the skimpiest outfit ever. "Tess." He said in a menacing tone. He didn't know why she kept bothering him. She had served her purpose. She had helped bring Liz here but still she wasn't satisfied. He knew she wanted Max. But the fact that she also wanted the kingdom enraged him. "Go away."
"I think you've never heard of pre-nuptial pleasures." She purred, toying with a loose bouncy curl. "Perhaps I oughta give it to you..." She licked her lips seductively before strutting to him and climbing on the bed. She bent closer and whispered in his ear. "I can be better then Liz..." She told him which eventually made him snap.
Cameron grabbed a hold of Tess' hair and shot up. "How dare you worm yourself into my bedroom and try to take the place of my future wife? Do you have any idea you have offended a king today?!". He yelled at her, pulling her head back. "I can have you killed for treason."
Tess battered her mascara clad eyelids and tears spilled out as she screamed. "I've tried everything else. You didn't keep to your promise. I brought your stupid Liz here so in exchange you'd give the kingdom to me and help me get Max!".
"Listen to one thing you whore, this kingdom is mine and will forever belong to me and where Max is concered you can have him as long as you know your bounderies not to cross over here. Do you understand?".
"Camer-" She began but he snapped.
"Lord Cameron." He corrected. "Your highness."
"Lord Cameron, I'm sorry." She quickly apologised, knowing that he held the ultimate power. Everything went to his wishes. She should have known that even Nasedo would favour him over her. She never felt so used in her life.
Cameron threw her on the floor. "Guards, take her away!". He commanded and within seconds a few guards poured in Cameron's room, grabbing Tess by the arms before hauling her up. "Have her locked in the deepest darkest dungeons." He instructed before they nodded their heads in respect and whisked Tess away.
As Tess was being taken away, Kyle and Serena were walking in the same hallway. Kyle and Serena stopped upon seeing a crying Tess screaming as several guards escorted her out of Cameron's room. "Yeah, take the bitch away! Lock her up and kick the shit outta her!". Kyle hollered onto which Tess quietened down a little and watched him with mournful eyes. That only made Kyle more angry, how dare she look at him with hope after what she had done to them?
As Tess was being taken away, she realised she had made the biggest mistake of her life.

"Wake up Sam." He nudged her slightly. It was one in the morning and his wife stirred. She didn't want to wake up. "Please Sam." He urged and she woke up weary eyed.
"Jonathan Whitman, what has gotten into you?". She asked him, fluttering her eyes. She was very tired. Very very tired.
"I can remember. I remember." He spoke in a raspy voice.
Suddenly she sat up. "Tell me everything." She demanded.
That eventful night, eighteen years ago..
They ran towards the entrance of the ship, many couple grabbing onto each other's hands. King Jeffronin with his Queen Nacinia, King Phillip and Queen Dianne were both onboard on that ship along with Lady Amerie, Nasedo a skillfull protecter, Sir Jahred with his lady Sadie and then it was them. Samantha Whitman and her husband Jonathan Whitman who were both part of the royal community. Samantha was from where King Phillip and Queen Dianne ruled and Jonathan was from where King Jeffronin and Queen Nacinia ruled. Both had met just now, in times of crisis.
Most of the passengers here were a couple. Queen Dianne had a baby in her arms. Sam could make out a tuft of dark brown hair on top of the baby's head. Prince Zan, son of Queen Dianne and King Phillip. The baby was almost a year old.
And in Sadie's arms was another boy of fine blonde hair and blue eyes. She watched as Jahred, the presumed father cooed over his son while they were being strapped in their seats.
Over to the other royal couple, Queen Nacinia had a small baby wrapped in a white blanket. She was trying to hush her baby who was on the verge of waking up and if the baby woke up then Sam knew the Queen feared she could not be sucessfull in making the baby go back to sleep again.
There was a pregnant woman onboard. Amerie. She was heavily pregnant and looked as if she would just give birth now. She rubbed her hand over her bump protectively.
Suddenly a man rushed to the entrance of the space shuttle before it could close. He had another child in his arms. The child seemed to also be almost one years old.
"Ramiro!". King Phillip gasped. "Ramiro?".
"Take my son with you. Take him with you." He panicked, fighting back the sobs as he thrusted his son into King Phillips hands. "I have to go."
"Come with us." King Phillip urged.
"No, it's too late. Go!". Ramiro forced the door closed to which King Phillip roared in agony. Sam realised he lost his friend, his dear friend was now doomed to be a prisoner of Khivar, the reason why they were fleeing this place. Jonathan ran to King Phillip's aid. They had to help each other now.
"Take a seat, my lord." Jonathan said, easing the man down in his seat again.
Now the baby in Queen Nacinia's arms was crying. "My Queen, let me help." Sam said, inspired by Jonathan and taking the baby into her arms. As soon as Sam saw her face she was besotted. "Oh she's so beautiful." Sam said in awe over her face.
This baby was a girl. She was a very cute girl. Her big dark brown eyes made Sam's heart melt. "Be careful with her." Nacinia said, almost wanting to take her baby back but Sam quickly managed to hush the baby by singing a little lullaby which she learned from her mother. "Hush little one, when you're gone, the pieces of my heart will be missing you, when're you're gone, the face I came to know is missing too, but one day you'll return with the same face, no more will you be gone." She hushed the child who stared at her with her big enticing deep brown eyes. Sam thought the child was so adorable.
Jonathan watched, he could read Sam's thoughts and smiled. King Phillip had looked into the little boy's eyes who was Ramiro's son. "I promise you little one, your father will be reunited with us."
They all sat around each other in the lounge room of the space ship. Nasedo walked in. "The ship is prepared for take off." He said and walked back into the cockpit again.
How very odd of him, thought Jonathan. This Nasedo was acting discreet. He knew something was up with that guy. Jonathan decided to sit next to Sam. He watched her as she handed the baby back to Queen Nacinia who thanked her. He took this opportunity to take her hand. Sam looked at him, surprised. "It'll be okay." He mouthed to her and smiled.
"Thanks." She smiled back. She needed the comfort.
When the ship sped off into the sky, four hours later most of them had dozed off to sleep. Except for Sam and Jonathan who decided to stay awake.
"When this is over, I'm going to purchase a human house." Sam told Jonathan. "I just hope it's not too big or not too small."
"We will find the right house." He assured.
This was an odd time to romance but they did find out intersting facts about each other. Both were usually busy on their time on Antar. Sam was a reporter and Jonathan was an inventist who developed the latest advanced technology on Antar. Luckily none of his inventions was in the hands on Khivar or any other unknown enemy. Everything was on this huge ship. They would make use of it on earth. Sam felt protected with Jonathan.
A blonde haired woman walked in the room. She was a maid and she had a tray in her hands. She offered drinks to everyone. Even those who were asleep woke up to drink it. Sam and Jonathan remembered the fizzy fiery effect of the drink. It rushed straight down their throats.
"That was too strong." Sam said to Jonathan.
"You're right." He coughed.
Suddenly an alarm went off. Smoke poured in the room. "What the hell!". Jahred exclaimed. The parents tried to shield their young while Sam and Jonathan hugged each other for protecting each other.
"Whatever happens, don't let me go." She said to him.
"I promise I will never let you go." Jonathan promised. The women were screaming and babies were crying. Everything spun out of control before the lights were taken out. It went dark.
(End of Flash)
"Oh my god, Jonathan." Sam said, wide-eyed. "We were decieved."
"We need to tell the others Sam." Jonathan told her. "We need to recruit our team."

Re: When you're gone (CC,ALL,TEEN) 6/22/08 ch 11 (Pg 7)
Ch 11
Kyle's blood was boiling with anger as Serena described the story of how Cameron so ruthlessly and mercillessly killed her parents. The experience was too graphic and with each word, Serena's eyes drenched more tears and Kyle's rage was building up.
"How could you even consider to work for him when you saw him kill your parents." Kyle asked through gritted teeth.
"Revenge." She told him with puffy red eyes. "He's only easy to attack from behind."
"Ah, the all vigilante act. How classic." Kyle said. "Maybe I should consider that if I wasn't so damned restrained." He muttered, glancing at the power blocking device on the wall. It was flashing lights happily as if mocking him knowing it had stripped him of his powers.
Then his eyes were drawn to that object. It began to hum and beep, the lights changed from a light blue to a light green and then light pink, over and over again. Both him and Serena stood up in shock.
"What's going on?". She whispered, cautious of that device.
"Does it usually do this?". Kyle asked with curiousity.
"No, it never does that." Serena said, alarmed.
"Lord have mercy." Kyle said. They watched the device blink the lights in a specific order until it slowed down.
"Kyle..Liz? Are you there?". Maria's voice came from the device.
Kyle's heart jumped with joy as soon as he heard her voice. "Oh god Maria!". He gasped, happiness taking over. He never felt so releived over the past few weeks.
"How are you both?". Micheal's voice accompanied Maria's.
"We're fine thanks. Khivar is after Liz though. He wants to get married to her soon, he's hypnotised her or something and the whole place is crawling with power blocking devices." Kyle informed them.
"So how are we talking to you exactly?". Micheal asked.
"Through the power blocking devices."
"Yess!, it worked." Micheal said. "Listen, apparently the power blocking device can be used as a communicated device which weakens the part to block our powers. We're sending a signal to put off the power blocking devices and you need to stab that Cameron in the back."
"Right and how do you know about Cameron?". Kyle asked, confused. Khivar was Cameron's father and they hadn't been able to get into contact with the others to inform them of that.
"It's a long story." Micheal said before Maria took over.
"Hey Kyle, please save Liz from Cameron. Once he marries her, he will gain complete power of both the kingdoms as well as ruining Liz's life."
"Hell, I ain't letting that bastard marry Liz. Thanks for everything. It's soo good to hear your voice again Maria. You don't know what hell me and Liz been put through."
"I wish you guys were here with us right now." Maria said with a trembling voice. "We miss you so much."
"We miss you so much too." Kyle said in the exact same tone. "Don't worry. I promise you, that we will return safe and sound."
"Good and there's one more thing." Maria said. "Tess knows where the teleportation device is. You better make sure she listens to you."
"She will have to. Because of that bitch, we're here in the first place." Kyle scoffed.
"We look forward to seeing you again." Maria said. "I cannot wait to see you and Liz again."
"And us." Kyle smiled. "Love you."
"Love you both." Maria said and they both disconnected, fully knowing that they will reunite very soon. Kyle looked at Serena and both had a grin on their faces.
"Looks like our revenge is coming soon." Serena smiled as Kyle's eyes flashed red for a moment and his hands were crackling with red electric currents. His powers were returning.
He grinned after noticing his powers returning. "Yes it is."
__________________________________________
When they went to the dungoen, Tess was in her cell clad in her skimpy dirty outfit. Her hair was a mess and her red lipstick was smeared over her face. When she caught sight of Kyle she got up and faced him with her hands clutching the gritting bars.
"Kyle you gotta beleive me-" She began but he put a hand up gesturing for her to stop.
"Um!, let me do the talking first." Kyle interrupted. "We need you to tell us where the teleportation device is."
Serena stood in the background and used her powers to block anyone from hearing them. She couldn't throw up sheilds like Liz and Max could but she could manipulate molecular structures, the electric magnetic field and slightly control actions. Her speciality was invisibility. That's why Tess couldn't see her right now.
Tess's light blue eyes shone. "Wow, so you want me to do something for you?". She was back to her deceitful ways again Kyle realised but he was going to be the one with the upper hand this time. No Tess, No Nasedo, No Cameron or any other annoying obstacle can come in their way again.
"Don't think this is your ticket to freedom Tess because if I wanted, I could have you killed. See I know how to push buttons. I learnt that off from you. You lost the ability of freewill. You behind bars bitch. You are now dependant. And we're going to do what I say. Now you tell me where that damned teleporting machine is or you can spend the rest of your sordid life rotting behind bars."
"Okay." Tess nodded, understanding Kyle was right. There was no way out for her. She had to tell him if she wanted to escape Cameron's punishment.
"Now get one thing clear Tess, I'm not freeing you so you can fuck up Liz's life again and the lives of people who I truly love and care about. You dare to mess with Liz or any of us, I will have you back behind bars faster then a speeding bullet. Understand that?". Kyle was trying hard not to curse Tess, he hated her so much. It was hard to restrain all those repressed swear words he had stored for her otheriwse every word in that sentence would have been a swear word.
"Alright, So you'll get me out of here. Right. I tell you were the machine is, then what? What happens next? Who takes out Cameron?".
"Well, you do." Kyle said and Tess was shocked.
"What?".
"You're going to marry Cameron instead of Liz."
"But.." Tess protested.
"You've done enough damage already. Besides it was your idea to seduce Cameron first." Kyle snapped. "If you marry Cameron, that will make you his queen. So you will be in charge of this kingdom as well as him."
"But he will kill me." Tess sobbed. Scared of Cameron.
"Well, according to Antarian law. Hurting your wife is a serious offence. If he so lays a finger on you, he can get killed for treason."
"Wow, you seem to know antarian law better then me." Tess said in awe.
"I didn't spend all this time doing nothing." Kyle said.
"Okay, I'll marry Cameron. I'll tell you where the machine is." Tess finally agreed. Almost hiccuping. Kyle's solution was better then spending all her life behind bars, rotting away. She also wanted to avenge Cameron for double crossing her.
"You best not let anyone know of this conversation and our intentions." Kyle warned her. "Or you'll suffer."
"I promise to do as you say." Tess nodded, making the first ever genuine promise in her life.
_________________________________________
Kyle's blood was boiling with anger as Serena described the story of how Cameron so ruthlessly and mercillessly killed her parents. The experience was too graphic and with each word, Serena's eyes drenched more tears and Kyle's rage was building up.
"How could you even consider to work for him when you saw him kill your parents." Kyle asked through gritted teeth.
"Revenge." She told him with puffy red eyes. "He's only easy to attack from behind."
"Ah, the all vigilante act. How classic." Kyle said. "Maybe I should consider that if I wasn't so damned restrained." He muttered, glancing at the power blocking device on the wall. It was flashing lights happily as if mocking him knowing it had stripped him of his powers.
Then his eyes were drawn to that object. It began to hum and beep, the lights changed from a light blue to a light green and then light pink, over and over again. Both him and Serena stood up in shock.
"What's going on?". She whispered, cautious of that device.
"Does it usually do this?". Kyle asked with curiousity.
"No, it never does that." Serena said, alarmed.
"Lord have mercy." Kyle said. They watched the device blink the lights in a specific order until it slowed down.
"Kyle..Liz? Are you there?". Maria's voice came from the device.
Kyle's heart jumped with joy as soon as he heard her voice. "Oh god Maria!". He gasped, happiness taking over. He never felt so releived over the past few weeks.
"How are you both?". Micheal's voice accompanied Maria's.
"We're fine thanks. Khivar is after Liz though. He wants to get married to her soon, he's hypnotised her or something and the whole place is crawling with power blocking devices." Kyle informed them.
"So how are we talking to you exactly?". Micheal asked.

Re: When you're gone (CC,ALL,TEEN) 6/25/08 ch 12 (Pg 8)
Ch 12
The lilac clouds surrounded the pink sky spilling a downpour of rain whic hit the surface. Liz was in the palace gardens, watching from the outer balcony and leaning on one of the pillars. She had a longing look on her face and her expressions revealed the sadness in her dark brown eyes. She was lost. Numb and unable to express her feelings.
Life had taken her on a lifechanging journey. She felt powerless. Unable to take control of the situaion around her. She thought she was going mad. She could hear the sound of the rain drops hitting the ground, it pierced her ears.
"My lady..." She heard a voice behind her.
"Max?". She said, feeling a hand on her shoulder and turning around. Now she was dissapointed when she saw Cameron standing there but why? And why did she call out Max's name out all of a sudden?
"Max is not here." Cameron said. "And I don't think he's going to come either."
Instead of answering him, Liz looked away and resumed looking at the rain. She had nothing to say to Cameron.
"Let's dance." He said, kissing her on the cheek and taking her hand. Leading her outside in the rain.
As soon as the rain hit Liz and pierced through her clothing, she was bombarded with unpleasent flashes.
*FIRST FLASH*
Max grabbing Tess in the rain and crushing his lips on hers, kissing her with passion. Liz watched them in pain as tears flowed down her cheeks. How could her Max betrey her like this? First kiss her and tell her no one will come between them and then openly kiss some other girl infront of the crashdown like he didn't care?
Liz's heart broke when she saw the way his lips moved against that Tess's mouth. It was like he was enjoying it, trying to get more deeper and the way he grabbed her clearly indicated that he wanted more. Liz thought she wasn't good enough for Max and unable to see any more, she left.
*SECOND FLASH*
Liz saw Max sitting down in the Crashdown and decided to ignore him. He got up and followed her into the back room.
"I saw you Max." She said followed by his protests of denying he had any feelings for Tess.
"It wasn't just attraction..." He said. "I had flashes."
"You had flashes when you kissed her Max? Like when you kissed me?". Liz said in utter dissapointment that their special connection was shared by someone else and him.
Again, she had to leave.
*THIRD FLASH*
"The closer you and I grew the worse it got with Tess, and eventually she left Roswell". Future Max said.
"Because of me?". Liz asked curiously imaging how life would be without Tess in their lives. It would be a whole lot better and she knew that.
"Because of me, and how I treated her. And it turned out Tess was critical to our survival. The four of us - Michael, Isabel, Tess, and I...we made a complete unit. We all had different gifts, and with one of us missing, we weren't as strong, and everything fell apart." Future Max explained. Liz held back the tears as she realised what he was implying.
"So, um...you want me to help you and Tess get together?".
"Yes." He said.
Liz felt her world shatter. Just how much pain did she have to go through. Why was the world so against her and Max being together?
*FOURTH FLASH*
Liz was searching for Max. He wasn't in the gym where she had left him so she decided to look in the corridor and apologize for being such a jerk to him. She didn't know what came over her and found herself saying the opposite of what she wanted to tell him. Of course she wanted him back.
Then she saw him. Again. Kissing Tess. Looks like she wasn't getting him back after all. Liz ripped off the corsage of her wrist and threw it away before running out of the building before letting the tears fall again.
*FIFTH FLASH*
Liz knocks on the Valenti door. She knew this was a bad idea to start with. She disliked Tess and knew Tess was a traitor. She just needed to be sure she had the right person. Tess opened the door. Liz felt a chill down her spine. She was probably talking to a murderer.
"Liz." Tess said and Liz tried hard to avoid those icy blue eyes which appeared so souless.
"Hi Tess." She forced herself to speak in a polite tone.
"So are you here about me and Max?". She said causing Liz to be confused. Liz arched an eyebrow, why the hell would she go to Tess to talk about her being with Max? It was ludacris.
"No, um, I....well, I wanted to talk to you, actually" Liz said, holding back the words 'Hell no bitch, there is no you and Max.'
"Oh sure."
Liz took this opportunity to get into Tess's mind. She could easily do that far away but she wanted to reach deep into her mind and see who Tess really was. That could only happen when Liz was around Tess.
"Um, I just um, you know I have questions about your powers, mind control especially".
"What kind of questions?"
"You know, um, anything that you can tell me, but um, like..." Liz said, trying to distract Tess while she was reading her mind until Max's appearence proved to be a distraction to her.
"Hey your door's.." He began while coming down from the stairs and fixing his shirt. He looked at Liz who suddenly felt uneasy. What the hell was he doing here? With TESS.
"What are you doing here?". He asked Liz who was about to ask him the same question.
"Um, nothing, you know, we were just...we're talking, I should go." Liz quickly said, unable to be around Max when he was about to treat her like crap. It threatned to destroy the one image she had of him, the sweet shy amber boy who risked his life to save hers. She wanted to retain that image of him.
"Talking about what?". He interuppted.
Liz wined. Why did he always have to know everything? Didn't his heart tell him that she was always faithful to him?
Their conversation was very hurtful and she knew Max was lashing out on her.
"Can I go now?". A teary Liz asked.
"Yep." Max said like he didn't care about Liz and moved aside. Liz rushed out. Again finding herself running away from the disaster.
END OF FLASHES...
Now she was here with Cameron and in his arms under the shower of the rain. "Are you okay Liz?". He asked worried for her.
"Let's dance." She said, smiling. Max had hurt her intentionally. She knew that. And now it was her turn. She pressed her lips to Cameron's lips before they swayed together in the rain. She laughed while he twirled her around in the rain. She had always wanted a rain dance with Max but never got the chance and since Max had a special moment with someone else in the rain, she decided she would too.
With each swift move across the garden, she was getting rid of her repressed anger. Dancing with intimacy with Cameron wasn't a bad idea as it removed those feelings of pain which she buried deep inside her. Now it was her turn to smile and be happy. She had too much pain in her life.
Cameron smiled. It was working. Those drugs had brought out the negative images of Max in Liz's head driving her to be closer to Cameron.
Kyle was walking out on the balcony to find Liz. He didn't like what he saw. Liz dancing with Cameron in the rain like two lovers. But she wore a smile on her lips which releived Kyle. He hadn't seen her smile in a long time.
But he knew Liz wasn't truly happy although she was ridding the pain that had restricted her to happiness. Nasedo came out onto the balcony. "Ah, the future king and Queen having a romantic moment." He said. "Isn't that such a wonderful scene?". He asked Kyle.
Kyle laughed. "I think your daughter Tess being in the dungeon is an even more better scene." He scoffed, wiping the smirk of Nasedo's face. "Oh didn't you know your so called king threw your daughter behind bars?".
"Excuse me." Nasedo said before walking in the rain to break up the dance between Liz and Cameron.
"My Lord. I need to talk to you. It's urgent." He said to Cameron who very reluctantly stopped dancing with Liz.
"What is it?".
"It's private." He said, hinting that the conversation should only be between Cameron and himself.
"Could you excuse us for a moment?". Cameron asked Liz before walking away with Nasedo.
The rain died down and Kyle walked out towards Liz. "Liz you could catch a cold!". He snapped and touched her, using his powers of heat to warm her up.
Liz was surprised. "Kyle, I thought our powers were blocked?". She whispered.
"No, Maria and Micheal came into contact with us via tha power blocking device not long ago. They sent a signal to ruin all of those devices." He whispered to her. "This stays between you, me and Serena only though."
"We can escape." Liz realised.
"Yes." Kyle said, cupping her cheek and getting rid of the coldness of the rain which seeped through her skin. Liz felt warmed up again.
"Thanks Kyle." She said, feeling herself again. Her eyes flashed a light blue and she noticed her powers surge through her veins.
"But first, follow me. I have to show you something." He told her.

CH 13
Liz's parents, Max's parents including Jim Valenti, Amy Deluca and then Alex's parents were sat in the booth in the crashdown as Samantha and Jonathan Whitman narrated their breathtaking experience on the day when the ship crashed.
"I'm telling you, all of us were deceived." Jonathan pressed on. By the looks and glares he was receiving, he thought none of them beleived him until Jim Valenti stood up.
"Jonathan...I think you may be right." Jim said, taking a deep breath before deciding to tell them about the children. They were in danger and needed help. He put their needs before his and that was why he was going to tell every parent in this room what their child had been upto.
"Thank you." Sam said pretty much releived.
"Oh please Jim, don't tell me you beleive this nonsense". Amy rolled her eyes. "Aliens don't exist. They're just a theme."
Jim smiled and looked at her. "Do you remember what happened the night when you, Sean and Maria were held captive along with Max, Liz and Tess at the UFO centre?".
Amy was confused and tapped her fingers on the counter. "No?". She said but it had hit her a few times. She would have repetitive dreams about that night. Then she heard the sound of a gunshot. "Oh god, there was a gunshot."
Liz's father Jeff was worried now. "Wait a minute, you said Liz was also kidnapped in the UFO centre?". He asked Jim in disbeleif. "And a gun was fired? Why didn't you tell me this before?".
"Our children would have been in danger Jim." Dianne agreed.
"Do you know why they're in danger?". Jim asked.
"Because they're like us. Aliens." Jonathan concluded. "See, they are targeted by the FBI and the Skins." Jonathan said.
"The FBI we've dealed with." Jim said. "Now it's the skins I'm worried about."
"What the hell are skins?". Liz's mother asked in confusion. This whole conversation was like an annoying riddle.
"Our enemy on Antar." Jim said, slowely remembering his life on Antar. "We all were members of royalty. Until Khivar took over, we had no choice but to flee. We had our children with us. Amy you were pregnant with Maria that time, Mr and Mrs Parker, Liz was only a month old and Max was almost a year old." He looked at the Evans. "And I was with my son Kyle and my wife Sadie. Then you two were there." He looked at Samantha and Jonathan. "And I remember.....there was a man who handed you his only son." He pointed at Max's father.
"I don't remember..". Phillip said, frustrated with himself. He was convinced by Jim, Sam and Jonathan, his son and daughter always acted secretive with their friends. They had something to hide. He was pretty sure that this was the reason now and could understand why they had to be so discreet from their own parents.
"Try to remember." Sam urged. "It's in there, I know it is."
"There's something else I need to tell you." Jim said.
"What?".
"Well, Mr and Mrs Parker, your daughter isn't in Los Angeles with her aunt..." He said. "She's on Antar with my son Kyle because Tess and Nasedo kidnapped them."
"Oh my god." Liz's mother gasped, putting a hand to her chest. This was every parent's nightmare.
"Khivar's son, Cameron plans to marry Liz so he can rule both the kingdoms." Jim continued, remembering his conversation with Maria and Micheal earlier. "Your kingdom and your kingdom." He said looking at both the Parkers and the Evans'.
"Are you telling my that my daugther is kidnapped by crazy insane freaks?". Jeff spat in anger. "That a murderer is forcing my daughter to marry him?". He raised his voice. Phillip got up to calm Jeff down. He understood what it felt like being the father of a daughter. Always worrying about if any guys would take advantage of them.
"Calm down Jeff, let' hear what Jim has to say." Phillip said.
"NO! I can't calm down! She's my baby girl and if anything happens to her then I won't rest until her culprit is dead!". Jeff said in a defensive tone.
"Please Jeff, calm down. There's more to the story." Jim said calmly.
"And that is?". Dianne wanted to hear it.
"Maria and Micheal managed to establish contact with Kyle earlier in the day." Jim said and Amy's eyes widened. "They found out that Liz is being drugged by Cameron to be closer to him and Tess knows the way back home."
"I really doubt that Tess would help them." Amy said. "I've heard stories about her attitude from my daughter Maria."
"I know Tess is a really selfish person." Jim agreed. "But right now she's behind bars, she's been double-crossed by Cameron and would do anything for freedom. Kyle's made a deal with her and they're returning home very soon."
"My daughter better come back home." Nancy said. "But how will we find them?".
"In the cave." Jonathan said, knowing the answer to that already. "Nasedo's hidden a device there."
"It's not the granolith is it?". Jim asked.
"Nah, that's out dated." Sam said.
"No wonder it can only be used once." Jim muttered under his breath.
Phillip was slowely processing this in his head. "I'm thinking, if they do come back. That Cameron will try and take Liz again. How are we going to stop that?".
"Oooh, we've already got a backup plan for that." Alex Whitman said entering the crashdown and surprised all of them. "Don't you worry, Cameron will get what's coming to him." And all the eyes on the room fell on him.

Liz Parker followed Kyle to where Nasedo and Cameron were having their private conversation. They were hidden in the shadows and Liz could see through the pattern cut shaped pieces on the door and hear what they were saying.
"You whore of a daughter is behind bars because she won't let me rest in peace!". Cameron said. "If I want, I'll let you join her too." He snapped angrily.
"I'm so sorry my lord, Is there any remedy for her foolish behaviour."
"Nay, I shan't have her out." Cameron refused to give freedom to Tess. "Who knows when she will start her banters again."
"Oh my lord, grant freedom to my daughter and you will have my life's service at your feet". Nasedo begged, getting down onto his knees and clasping his hands together.
"You already said that before." Cameron said. "Likewise, there is no remedy for your daughter. Be content."
"Heaven played my daughter so fair and wise that she put herself in your countenance and you do but mock her but locking her away in a gritty place where the sun refuses to have mercy by restraining it's rays of hope. Oh I do beg your pardon my lord...it's wonderful to have a giant's strength but tyranneous to use it like a giant." Nasedo said as he got up.
"And your point is?". Cameron arched an eyebrow. "Hurry up. I want to make haste to my future wife."
"A wife? Don't mock yourself with a wife who shan't give herself to you according to her own wishes. Why you have her spendidly dupped and intoxicated with such potions and chemicals which only bring out the motivation of your own."
"Say no more."
"You are lying to yourself. Liz isn't in love with you my lord, she's hurting and those drugs are putting pressure on her pain using the images of pain in her past to drive her closer to you."
"She shan't beleive you." Cameron said.
"I shall not tell her sir." Nasedo said. "But think, if she happened to be resistant to the drug then what else shall be your plan?".
"I shall murder the ones she loves till she accepts me fully."
Liz watched in agony and anger. Memories flashed before her eyes. Memories of Max. When he kissed Tess and did the nasty things he did only because of this. He had been drugged, manipulated and used. His mind was also messed up by these beasts. Now she understood what he went through. She was going through the same thing. She didn't love Cameron. It was the drugs making her act in a weird way. She loved Max. Max only loved her. These beasts were trying to come between them.
"I cannot perform such miraculous deeds if my master cannot grant my wishes." He said. "I want my daughter Tess out or no more shall you control Liz."
"Fine. Have it your way. But rememeber. Liz should not hear an inkling about this." He warned Nasedo before Liz and Kyle quietly removed themselves from the shadows and back into their rooms in silence so none of them noticed them being present while they had their conversation.
Kyle was content now that Liz had seen the reality and now those drugs would have no affect on her. Thanks to Serena, he knew the only way availible right now to make Liz immune to those drugs was to put reality before her eyes. He was happy now that he helped Liz becoming herself again.
Inside Liz was fuming. How could someone be so heartless? She thought. She hated herself even more causing the drugs in her bloodstream to break down into nothingness until her pure emotions were back into control. Now Cameron and his allies would suffer the way they made them and everyone else suffer she silently vowed with hot tears spilling out from her eyes.

Liz's parents, Max's parents including Jim Valenti, Amy Deluca and then Alex's parents were sat in the booth in the crashdown as Samantha and Jonathan Whitman narrated their breathtaking experience on the day when the ship crashed.
"I'm telling you, all of us were deceived." Jonathan pressed on. By the looks and glares he was receiving, he thought none of them beleived him until Jim Valenti stood up.
"Jonathan...I think you may be right." Jim said, taking a deep breath before deciding to tell them about the children. They were in danger and needed help. He put their needs before his and that was why he was going to tell every parent in this room what their child had been upto.
"Thank you." Sam said pretty much releived.
"Oh please Jim, don't tell me you beleive this nonsense". Amy rolled her eyes. "Aliens don't exist. They're just a theme."
Jim smiled and looked at her. "Do you remember what happened the night when you, Sean and Maria were held captive along with Max, Liz and Tess at the UFO centre?".
Amy was confused and tapped her fingers on the counter. "No?". She said but it had hit her a few times. She would have repetitive dreams about that night. Then she heard the sound of a gunshot. "Oh god, there was a gunshot."
Liz's father Jeff was worried now. "Wait a minute, you said Liz was also kidnapped in the UFO centre?". He asked Jim in disbeleif. "And a gun was fired? Why didn't you tell me this before?".
"Our children would have been in danger Jim." Dianne agreed.
"Do you know why they're in danger?". Jim asked.
"Because they're like us. Aliens." Jonathan concluded. "See, they are targeted by the FBI and the Skins." Jonathan said.
"The FBI we've dealed with." Jim said. "Now it's the skins I'm worried about."
"What the hell are skins?". Liz's mother asked in confusion. This whole conversation was like an annoying riddle.
"Our enemy on Antar." Jim said, slowely remembering his life on Antar. "We all were members of royalty. Until Khivar took over, we had no choice but to flee. We had our children with us. Amy you were pregnant with Maria that time, Mr and Mrs Parker, Liz was only a month old and Max was almost a year old." He looked at the Evans. "And I was with my son Kyle and my wife Sadie.

Re: When you're gone (CC,ALL,TEEN) 6/30/08 ch 14 (Pg 8)
Ch 14
Cameron had rushed into his room when he didn't find Liz in the garden. There she was sitting on the bed. She looked so beautiful in her dark green silk dress and her hair was in curls. "Hey sexy." She said causing him to smile. She never called him that before, while he felt happy, she felt sick.
"My future wife, My queen." He addressed her, walking upto her and about to kiss her on the lips to which she turned her cheek and avoided his lips being pressed to hers. Max only deserved that. Max only deserved her.
"I was thinking maybe the wedding should be tonight." Liz said. "I cannot wait."
Cameron felt so much joy right now. "My lady, you have no idea how happy you have made me!". He cried, "I shall have us wedded tonight, as per your wishes."
Liz forced a smile but then dropped it quickly in purpose. "Yeah.." She said rolling her eyes.
"What's wrong mi lady?".
"I need a maid when I get married." She said.
"I shall bring you the bestest maid in the kingdom. You shall have your every need met." Cameron told her and took her hand in his own.
Liz knew that only Max would have her every need met. Max was who she needed. Max was who she was supposed to be with. They were destiny.
"No, I wanted my maid to be Tess." Liz said. "She can be usefull. I want her as my maid." Liz said.
"Okay. Tess shall be your maid." Cameron said without question. "For now she is in the dungeon."
"Can I take her out?". Liz asked.
"Of course you may. Here's the keys." Cameron entrusted his set of keys to her which Liz gleefully took.
"Start the wedding preparations." Liz ordered before leaving. "I shall see you tonight." Liz said instead of 'our wedding night' knowing that there was going to be a BIG surprise for Cameron tonight, A night he'll never forget.
She had the keys and now was making her way to the dungeon, towards the next part of their plan.
_________________________________
With shaking hands, Liz carried the heavy set off keys and ran down to the gritty dungeon. This was her one and only chance to get them all back home to their family and friends..if she suceeded, she'll see Max again. Would things be different between them from now on? She didn't know but her heart was craving to be with her loved ones again.
She entered the dark prison and the guards shut the door behind her, granting her some privacy. As soon as she was in the room, Liz put up a shield to block anyone from hearing them, it was stronger then Serena's sheild and more durable. Liz noticed this block of cells was narrow. There were at least five prisoners here. Three men, two of them were old men and the other looked middle aged. There were an old woman and then Tess. Everyone looked so glum, so tired. All of them were either lying like a sack of potatoes on their dirty bunk bed or wrapping their arms around the bars in despair and head hung low. Liz wondered how much pain did these people have to go through. Their hair was dirty and they had scars of all sorts on their skin, the ripped rags showed the effects of burning and whipping, dried blood on their skin and old bruises mixed with fresh brusies.
"Tess." Liz grimaced as she reached her. Tess's clothes were nothing but shreds of strings, she had been whipped. She lay face down on her bed, arms and legs outstreched. There were burn marks on her and whip marks too. Liz could tell she had been beaten up just recently. Tess was groaning in utter pain. An hour ago the guards had beaten her as part of their routine to treat prisoners. She was treated like scum and was lucky enough if they touched her with their truncheons. It was a sin for them to come into skin contact with prisoners.
Tess lazily lifted her head up and noticed the familier brunette. The brunnette which Max Evans only had eyes for. "Hello Liz." She grinned before rolling off the bed. Liz wished she hadn't done that now that Tess stood up, displaying lots of bruised skin. Her top was almost peeled off showing her bra clad cleavage and her stomach was patterened in bruises.
Liz turned her eyes away from Tess. "I'm going to have you work as my maid." Liz said. "That's the only way Cameron will let you out."
"Wow, pretty smart for Max Evan's soulmate." Tess laughed. "Why would you want to help the bitch who tried to steal your man?".
"So I can get back home and meet my man along with my family and friends again." Liz snapped, already Tess was a pain in the neck.
"I know." Tess whispered. "So what are you waiting for, unlock me."
Liz took a deep breath and thought carefully. Tess was a manipulative person. She could never be trusted but she was the only hope for them. Liz could easily read her mind and get the location of the teleportation machine from her but someone was needed to replace her in the marriage of her and Cameron to distract him while they made their escape. Liz closed her eyes and skimmed through Tess's mind.
(FLASH)
A big golden dome came into view, the symbol was a star in a circle on top of the dome. The building the dome was resting on was white with beautifully carved windows with pink, yellow and dark blue tinted glass shaped in patterns. The doors of the building opened and the golden stairs led to a secret room underground.
Magnificent golden walls came into view. The whole room was golden. It was so beautiful.
Then there was another door. The secret door with a lock. A key was needed. The key opened the door and inside was a huge machine. It was a circle shaped with a light shaped like a star in it. There was buttons on the right side under a key slot. The same key used to open the door. The buttons resembled, North, West, South and East. The big red button in the middle was the key used to activate the machine. The key was to open up the portal.
The machine was hidden in the old palace of the first king and queen of Antar which was hidden deep in the forest, abandoned now.
(END OF FLASH)
Liz opened her eyes and looked at Tess. "You best not double cross us Tess because if you are then you will suffer a great deal that you'll never be able to recover again." Liz warned. She knew Tess was going to keep her promise of helping them and marrying Cameron but Liz also know Tess used mind tricks on Max and cheated on all of them to such an extent she was ready to murder Alex and hide the evidence. Tess could change her mind any minute and use the situation to her advantage.
Liz began to open Tess's cell. On seeing this, Ramiro, a prisoner who spent years in this prison got up and tried to get Liz's attention. "Hey..." He said in a croaky voice.
Liz and Tess looked at him. "Who the hell are you?". Liz saw the man calling out to her. He was in dirty rags, his beard was so long it stopped at his navel and his eyes were bushy and his hair was also long. He looked scary. "You heading to earth?".
Liz invaded his mind and was disturbed in what she saw. Flashes of pain, despair and torture and then a little baby boy..him handing his child to someone in a ship before takeoff? and then some skins beating him up so badly before throwing him into this prison.
"You're Khivar's prisoner for eighteen years?".
"Yes."
Liz let Tess out and then decided to open Ramiro's cell. "How can I help you?".
"I need to get to Earth to find my son Rath."
"Oh my god. That's Micheal." Liz realised. "Micheal Guerin."
"Rath." Ramiro whispered. "He's my son."
Ramiro stepped out. Liz just realised she had just found Micheal's father. "Listen, Tess you have to mindwarp everyone to think these guards are still down here." Liz said, unlocking every cell. All these prisoners were innocent. They needed to be freed.
"Okay." Tess nodded.
"Then you need to go into hiding." Liz pointed at Ramiro. "You need to lead all these innocent people into safety." And then she spoke to him in his mind. *Find the old palace of the first king and queen of antar, go downstairs into the gold room, you'll find a door which needs a key and then that same key can take you to Earth to your son Micheal*. Ramiro looked at her in a numinous feeling. He knew she was their saviour from above, sent to help them. She was royalty and he smiled. "Thank you."
"May god bless you in your rightful place." The old woman thanked Liz and so did the other prisoners.
"We need to get you guys out of sight. Tess mindwarp now." Liz ordered and Tess obeyed. Liz locked all the cell doors again and Tess mindwarped the guards from seeing the prisoners which gave them a chance to escape.
*Good luck* Liz wished everyone of them in their minds before they went their seperate ways.
Now the marriage was pending.
Time to kill, Liz thought. Determined to end Cameron's reign of terror once and for all.
Cameron had rushed into his room when he didn't find Liz in the garden. There she was sitting on the bed. She looked so beautiful in her dark green silk dress and her hair was in curls. "Hey sexy." She said causing him to smile. She never called him that before, while he felt happy, she felt sick.
