Roswell Fanatics

"Zara", Zander said her name as a soft whisper. Then he leaned in and whispered gently in her ear, "Meet me tonight where we had our first date, at midnight". They were having dinner with the Royal Court in the banquet hall and although the couple was sure that what was said could not be heard, they also noticed they had attracted the attention of everyone around the table and Zara's cheeks immediately turned a bright shade of pink. Rayana and Vander could be heard giggling, while Zara's brother Rath simply grunted.
Zander cleared his throat loudly and stammered, "Please excuse the interruption and continue eating".
"Of course Oh Fearless Leader", Rath smirked and Rayana burst into another fit of laughter.
Half an hour later the group of 6 met in the study outside Rath and Zara's chambers, "You wanna tell us what that was all about little brother or don't I want to know", Zan's older sister Vilandra asked.
"I honestly don't think you want to know Vee", Rayana stifled yet another giggle.
"Ray that wasn't funny", Zan addressed his friend seriously even though he was smiling.
"Your right, it was gross", Rath spoke up.
"Rath shut up, you don't even know what was said", Zara glared at her brother.
"But I do have a pretty good idea", Rath answered.
"Your so irritating, you always have to be so stubborn"!
"Oh, but you know you love me Zee", Rath responded with a laugh.
"Only because I have too", Zara smiled menacingly getting up from her seat next to Zan.
"What are you doing"? Rath asked as Zara hugged him, "Get off of me"! he grumbled only half serious.
"Oh, but you know you love me", she laughed mocking his earlier words.
"Hey, wait a minute, if Zee gets a hug I want one too"! Rayana jumped on him.
"You'll pay for that later Ray", Rath said as he stood up.
"Come on Spaceboy, give me a hug", Rayana whined getting up after him.
"Yeah, Mister Big Shot General, give her a hug", Zan laughed as he watched his best friend get tackled by the two of the women who love him most in the world.
"I'm warning you Zander, stay out of this", Rath responded threateningly which only caused Zander to laugh even harder, if that was possible. The 6 friends who were closer than family continued to laugh and banter with each other.

Midnight

Zara stood standing at the edge of the cliff looking out over the crimson red water, which was glistening in the moonlight. This is where she and Zan had their first date, it had been a beautiful picnic, with only the moon and candles as their light. It had been one of the happiest moments of her life. "Where is he", Zara mumbled softly to herself, wondering aloud, he was already 15 minutes late. It was then that she felt strong, sturdy, and gentle arms wrap around her from behind, "I thought you forgot about me"!
"Never", Zan whispered softly from behind her. Zara turned carefully around in his arms and looked into his beautiful, soulful eyes, there she saw so much love, love for her.
"I love you more then you will ever know", she muttered against his lips and then kissed him deeply, passionately to show him how much she loved him.
"Ditto", he mumbled back, lost in their kiss.
Zara pulled away slowly, "So Zan, why are we here tonight"?
"Because I love you", he stated as he reached for the picnic basket he had set on the ground in back of him.
"Tell me something I don't know"! Liz smiled.
Zan was busy getting out the contents of the picnic basket. Zara saw that he had brought out a blanket and laid it down neatly, then he took out several candles and set them around the perimeter of the blanket. "What is all this"? Zara asked smiling. Without answering Zan continued with his task of taking the food out of the basket. Zara looked to where everything was in place and for the first time noticed that every single item of food that removed form the basket was a dessert of some kind. There was every dessert she could ever imagine, from chocolate cake, dough nuts, and ice cream to strawberries with chocolate, her favorite.
"Zan it's all desserts", she said stating the obvious, "Is there anything else in the basket"?
"One more thing, but I am saving it for later", Zan said thinking of the silver banded engagement ring with two diamonds surrounding a soft pink quartz colored diamond. He had bought the ring a few weeks ago because when he saw it it reminded him so much of Zara and now he had been waiting for the perfect opportunity to ask her to marry him.
Zan sat down on the blanket, giving her a quick kiss along the way; Zara joined him in the center of the blanket. The ate some of every food and enjoyed every single bite of it. Zara was busy eating yet another strawberry and mumbled, "Mmmmm... sweet"! That made Zan laughed out loud as he thought of a memory, ~Ray, she's just a little bit crazy sometimes~!
"What"?! Zara demanded.
"Nothing, don't worry about it", he smiled.
"Fine, but tell me what else is in that basket"! She said letting it go for now.
Without responding Zan used his powers to cause a beautiful song to play in the background, which also caused Zara to smile. Then he reached into the far corner of the picnic basket where the ring was safely tucked. He turned and faced Zara once again, with box in hand, "Zara since the first time I saw you I knew I wanted to spend the rest of my life with you. I am now asking you to spend the rest of your life with me", Zara's breath caught in her throat, "Zara Rae Kyrie, will you...", Zan was cut off at mid-sentence as a castle guard cleared his throat.
"King Zander, we need you right away. Kivar and his troops are the palace gates"! The guard finished in a hurry.
Zander was quickly taken away by the guard, but not before he turned backward and mouthed, 'I'm so sorry', Zara only nodded with tears in her eyes.

L.A.

Liz Parker bolted upright in he bed gasping for air, it felt as if she would never get enough to fill her lungs. When she finally got her breathing under control she looked around and let out a sigh of relief, she was still in her apartment in L.A. But those dreams, they were just so real, almost as if they were memories, she actually felt like crying herself. ~Don't be ridiculous, they can't possibly be memories~, she thought to herself. With that Liz laid back down and tried to get a goodnight sleep.

N.Y.C.

~Coffee, coffee, coffee~, that was they only thing on Maria's mind as she rushed int the kitchen of her small, yet quaint apartment. She was already late for work as it was, she had been losing a lot of sleep lately all due to those reoccurring dreams, they weren't ever nightmares though. She felt so alive in those dreams... ~Rayana~, that's who she was in her dream world. In those dreams she felt so much love from everyone, friends and family alike, not only that but in that world she had the love of her life, her soul mate. The sad thing was, in reality she had no family, they had all passed away. Those dreams were just so real, she wished so much that they actually were.
Maria was suddenly jolted back to the present time at the sound of the coffee maker beeping, signaling it was finished. ~I have got to get to work~! She really did have to get to the studio and finish recording her new single "Breathing On My Own". then in about a week, she had to fly to Los Angeles for a photo shoot, because she was going to be on the cover of next month's issue of Elle.
"I'm here, I'm SO sorry I'm late"! Maria gushes as she came running into Astar records studio.
"Don't worry about it Honey, just get in there and let's make that gorgeous new song of your's a wrap"! Replied her manager Jessica.
Maria did as she was told with a smile on here face, she went and picked up her guitar, walked slowly over to the microphone that was waiting for her, put on her head-phones, and gave a thumbs up sign showing that she was ready to start. With that Maria DeLuca let herself be taken away y from reality as she once again thought again of her dreams, all the while putting all the love she felt from them into the song she had begun to sing.

Exiting the Place Gates:

As Michael was walking past the towering rod iron gates of the palace he thought about how lost he actually felt with out having the whole group there with him. Everyone in the group was a part of his family and everyone also held a special place in his heart, he just never realized it until now.
Max was his leader and brother, Liz was his savior and new-found sister, Isabel his comfort and sister. Then there was Alex, a man who he had resented in the beginning but had soon come to love as a brother. Alex was his light and laughter.
Now Maria, she had his heart right in the palm of her hand. Maria... there were just not enough words to describe his vibrant little pixie. She was everything everyone in the group was and so much more, but above all she was his strength and love. Without her Michael was completely lost.
"I guess it's my turn to be behind the tree Maxwell, I just hope I can find my way back out", Michael mumbled softly to himself.
"What was that Michael"? Alex's voice came breaking him out of his reverie.
"What?... Oh nothing nevermind", Michael answered slighty dazed.
"Don't go all spacecase on me there Spaceboy"! Alex joked and laughed.
~Typical Alex, making everybody laugh", Michael thought as he laughed out loud.
"Dada, you kay"? M.J.'s voice was muffled against his chest.
"I thought you were asleep, taking your nap Sweetheart", Michael kissed the top of her blond little head.
"I NO NAP", M.J. demanded!
"Of course not Baby Girl, now go back to sleep".
"I no nap", M.J. mumbled with less determination this time and soon placed her head back on his chest and fell fast asleep. ~So stubborn, gee I wonder where she got that from~, Michael smirked, ~Definately Maria~.
"How you holding up Little Man"?, Michael addressed his brave little boy. ~Now that he got from me~. As Michael looked at him he noticed how alike the two of them truly were. Rath had unruly hair, that so many people didn't understand and he was stubborn. ~Maria you have warped our kids~, Michael chuckled to himself. But when Michael looked into his son's light green eye he saw both his and Maria' strong will and determination.
"I'm okay Daddy, I'm a big boy", Rath replied smuggly.
"Yes you are little man", Alex answered and smile at his nephew.
Michael looked over Rath and at Alex, "Is she still asleep"? He mouthed motioning to his youngest daughter in Alex's arms.
Alex glance down at Chloe and nodded silently. The small group continued on in silence, lost in their own thoughts when Michael burst, "Alex where the hell is this ship we've been walking forever"!
"It's right beyond those rocks only a little farther".
As they reached the large rock formations they had to keep walking to reach the far side.
"What" ?! Alex gasped, "Where is it? It has been here since we got here, Max ordered it not to be touched and now it's gone"! Alex was out of breath by now.
"Dude your rambling! Please don't turn into Maria, one is enough for for everybody"! Michael had succeeded in making Alex grin slightly.
"But who could have gon against the King's orders and taken it"? Alex thought out loud.
"KIVAR"! Both guys spat out the name with a vengence at the same time.
~Kivar must have taken it transport Max, Liz, and Ava~
"We only have one option we wait".

Los Angeles Airport:
"Damn planes, I hate to fly", Maria DeLuca mumbled as she stepped off the airplane and into L.A. airport. She was very cranky and hot in het faded flair jeans and light blue tank top, not to mention her boots were killing her feet. ~I could use a soda before checking into the hotel~, she thought to herself. So grabbing her bags from luggage claim she started off towards her car, since she refused to take the provided limo she climbed into a rented red jetta and drove off looking for a place to eat.
Finally seeing a quaint little diner close to her hotel she parked and strode toward the double glass doors. When she was inside she immediately rushed to an empty booth. She began to look around observing the other people inside the restaurant and her eyes stopped wandering when they reached a small brunette who had to be about her age. The woman was sitting with her back to Maria and was all alone. Being the outgoing person she was, Maria decided to invite the girl to join her for lunch.
Walking quickly th the woman's booth Maria stood next to the table an politely asked, "Would you care to join me for lunch"? Suprise the woman sat up quickly. "Zara...", Maria whispered softly to herself. ~She is the other girl from my dreams~!
"Rayana...", ~No way can that be her~, thought Liz.
"Excuse me"?, they both said simaltaneously.
"Oh nevermind", Maria said with a quick wave of her hand, "Let's eat"!
"Alright", Liz gave in easily with a smile, "By the way I'm Liz Parker".
"Hey Chica, Maria DeLuca", Maria smiled back already liking this girl.
"Of course I knew I recognized you from somewhere. You are in like every magazine", Liz exclaimed excitedly.
"Nevermind the fame, it's not all it's cracked up to be", and with that Maria and Liz started laughing.

"Where do we go from here Max"? Isabel questioned looking to her brother for guidance.
"Well...", Max attempted to answer while he was trying to remain calm for the sake of the children and Isabel, but on the inside he was truly going crazy, "I honestly don't know Is", he finished lamely.
Isabel, who had not been expecting this proceeded to mumble to herself, "What are we going to do"?
Ava chose that moment to begin pulling on Max's shirt and he picked her up thinking she wanted to be carried. "Daddy, I know where Uncle Mikey and Alwex are.
Max was slighty alarmed, "How do you know that Sweetheart"?!?
"Cause Dada, when the bad man took me away I saw fings, I saw pictures", the young child tried to explain.
"She got flashes Max", Isabel clarified, she was clearly amazed at the abilities her little niece seemed to possess at such a young age and Max appeared to be just as puzzled.
"Honey, what did you see", Max asked carefully.
"Uhh... I saw a girl with yellow hair, kinda like Auntie Ria". Ava began, "And I saw another girl like Aunt Isabel with yellow hair too".
This wasn't helping much so Max clamly asked, " Ava, were the two women bad people"? As an answer to that Ava nodded her head fericely.
"Max, why don't you try to connect with her", Isabel suggested lightly while holding both Adrean and A.J. This situation was not going so well, she had sensed when Max tensed at the mention of two blond women. Max knew something and he was not telling her, but she decided not to push him too hard on the subject.
Max then looked at his beautiful daughter, who look so much like her mother and gently place his hand on her cheek, "Show me what you saw Sweetie". Suddenly Max was hit with a series of unsettling flashes that were way too much for a four year old to handle on her own. He saw Kivar first and his plan for Liz and Maria. Then he saw Tess and Courtney, Tess was with Alex and Courtney was with Michael preparing to kill each of the men and the last thing he saw was the most important, all four of them were at THE PALACE, that was the answer!!!
Max was knocked out of his trance when he heard Isabel's presistant, yet worried voice, "Max...? Max, what did you see? Are you okay?", she grew even more worried when he didn't respond.
Max blinked slowly a few times and finally said, "I can't believe she had to go through that"! He looked at Ava.
"Please tell me... what did you see Max"? Isabel pushed.
"I'll tell you what she saw Isabel. She saw that Son of a ---", he cooled down for a minute and then continued, "She saw his plan for killing her mother and her aunt! Not to mention seeing Tess and Courtney attack her uncles"! Max was clearly at a loss here and was obviously upset and feeling guilty because he wasn't they to help protect everyone.
~Oh my God! Alex, Michael, Liz, and Maria, they were all in danger. There were also her little nieces and nephew, who were not even old enough to understand what/who they truly were, a.k.a. their alien origins.~ Isabel was scared for the lives of almost all the people she loved.
"So... once again where do we go from here Max"? She asked.
"We find our way to Michael... and to home"!

"RATH"! Michael was fuming, he had taken up the role of Mister Mom for the last two weeks, but now he was just pissed. ~God I miss Maria~! "What did I tell you about using your powers in the palace"?
"Sorry Daddy", Rath quickly answered.
"Sorry! You blew up my stereo Rath"!
Alex who had been standing in the doorway heard the whole exchange and quickly came to Rath's defense, "Gee Gurin, I wonder who he reminds me of? Maybe someone who... blew up three tvs by the age of 17? Yeah that's it, it's YOU! Yup Guerin he is definately your son.", Alex started laughing hysterically at the priceless look on his friend's face. Alex could see that Michael was trying to suppress a laugh of his own at the memories, but Alex noticed that the laughter was quickly replaced by anger and this caused Alex to flee the room running at a high speed. He laughed all the way down the hallway as he went to check on the girls who were having a snack in the kitchen.
After Alex left Michael didn't know what to do, he had just yelled at his only son for something he had done himself when he was younger, ~Who am I turning into? Hank?~, Michael thought with guilt. So instead of yelling at Rath even more than he already had he ruffled his son's hair and said simply, "It's okay Buddy, but next time you want to use your powers blow up a rock... OUTSIDE"!!!
Rath looked at his father as if he was crazy and mumbled, "Who would want to blow up a rock"?! Then he left to finish his snack with his sisters and Uncle, leaving to laugh freely.
That night after the kids went to bed Michael and Alex decided to have a talk about the others, it had been two weeks already and neither man dared to bring it up, but now was the time.
Michael began the conversation by saying,"So Whitman what do you think we should do"?
"Well it has been about two weeks right? Which is like two Earth months, right?", Alex questioned.
"Yeah... what are you getting at?"
"That means that any number of things could have happened to Liz and Maria. They might not even know who we are.", ALex paused and then said, "I say we wait one more week and if Max and Is don't show up we go to Earth and rescue the girls ourselves."
Michael who was lost in thought, hadn't said a word. The thought of Maria and Liz not knowing who he was had brought tears to his eyes, but he quickly swiped them away before Alex even had a chance to notice. Maria was his first and only love and Liz... Liz was the family he never had growing up as a kid and he'd be damned if he lost either one of them.
Michael suddenly stood up and exclamed, "Alright Man, I'm going to bed.", as if nothing had happened at all. After that Michael left the room seemingly calm, but he left a very cofused Alex still sitting at the table.

Michael & Maria's Wing:
In his bedroom stood in the door-jam, just looking around the room, without Maria it seemed so empty. He stripped down to his boxers and slid easily into the white silk sheets, he turned and breathed deeply inhaling Maria's scent which was still there even after so long.
Michael tried to imagine how Maxwell feeling after all the recent events that had taken place. Michael knew that his best friend would be going crazy without Liz being near him and without knowing she was safe, but who wouldn't be, Liz was the girl he healed after she died on the floor of her parent's restaurant from a gunshot wound. Liz was also the first human to be let in on their secret and she kept it without any doubts, showing them all how to trust.
Michael had to stop thinking about it or else he would go crazy himself. So he rolled over and fell into the deepest sleep that he had ever experienced and that night Isabel dreamwalked him.

Dream Plane:
When Isabel entered she found Michael dreaming of being at The Crashdown, back home in Roswell. The fream was a memory, a memory of the night after the prom. Everyone was happy and laughing, Max and Michael were arguing over movies, only half serious. Isabel, Kyle, and Tess were looking at pictures, dicussing old times and happy to have the memories each snap-shot held. Maria was cleaning up the restaurant and broke a whole stack of plates and had to go in the back room to wash the dishes. Liz was crunching numbers, smiling at everyone, appearing happy to be there. Alex was the only member of the group that was missing, he was at home studying for an English test... or so they thought. That was until Maria came screaming, 'NOOOO!!!!', running from the back, when they looked at her they knew the terror in her eyes would be forever burned in their memories. At that moment every single person in the room froze, a questioning glance on their faces and fear in their eyes. Michael was the one who took a step towards Ria, but it was Liz's open arms she ran into with tears streaming down here cheeks.
Valenti came into the room then, a stricken look on his face, but fully prepared to explain, 'There's been an accident, Alex is dead!!'. At those words everyone, unable to move with tears on the verge of spilling over. Right then all of them were thinking the same exact thing, ~It's a dream. It has to be. It can't be true. Alex is NOT dead!!~, because the group had just shattered apart, no long was it whole.
It was Valenti who once again came to his senses first and automatically suggested Max attempt to heal Alex, they all rushed to their cars, and then to the coroner's office. Max jumped out of the jeep, ran to the ambulance, and quickly unlocked the double doors using his powers. He unzipped the body- bag and felt Alex's cold blood fill his hands as he layed them upon his friend's cold, lifeless body, a body that only a few short hours ago had been warm and vibrant with life. Max's eyes grew wide at the sight of his hands glowing silver above Alex's chest. Alex had to sit up straight and consume many lungfuls of air before he could comprehend what had happened.
All the people standing quietly outside waiting in anticipation, had noticed the van rock back and forth ever so subtly and took a deep breath of relief as they saw both Alex and Max emerge from the vehicle with big goofy grins on their faces.
Alex didn't have a chance to say one word before Maria and Liz were racing in his direction blinded by tears and were in return enveloped in the biggest hug ever seen. 'I thought you left us for good', Maria had said.
'Never, never you are my girls. How could I ever leave you?', he had responed kissing them both on the forehead. Then Alex saw Isabel and strode clamly to her and took her in his arms saying, 'God, I missed you!' Isabel just smiled up at him grateful to be back in his arms again.
Alex then proceeded to tell the true story, they story of how Tess Harding murdered him. He explained that the thought of suicide disgusted him and that the idea of it would never cross his mind, this of course everyone already knew.
There were shocked looks on every member of the groups faces, they were horrified, TESS!!! They didn't believe it until they looked around and for the first time realized that Tess had fled the scene. Soon after that was when they discovered that Tess had stolen the Granilith and headed back to Antar before the others sought revenge.
Isabel had watched Michael's dream in amazement, unable to believe the incredible detail in which Michael remembered that awful day that had changed their lives forever. The memories of it had brought tears to here eyes, just as it did years ago, but Is soon recalled her purposed for being there and she addressed Michael, "Michael...??"
He turned around and faced her before answering, "It's about time Issy, we have been waiting for you".
"I know and I'm sorry, but there is no time to explain now. I bring important news", she continued before he could interrupt, "Liz is in L.A. and Maria is in New York, doing what we don't know, but they don't remember about us, this place, or their families!", she sighed as she finished.
Michael was baffled and destroyed, "Where are you...??"
"We are coming for you. Stay there! And Michael we WILL get them back! I have to go now, I love you guys", then Isabel disappeared hearing Max calling for her.

Over the last two months Liz and Maria had grown close, since neither of them had any family they became each others family, it was as if they were meant to stick together, protect, and comfort each other. A month after the two girls met in the diner Maria bought a house for her and Liz to share as roommates.
~~~~~~~~
"Lizzie, I'm home", Maria called as she entered the house after recording in the studio all day. She continued to ramble on about her newest tour that she wanted Liz to come on her with. It wasn't until ten minutes later that no reply had come from her best friend so she called her name again, "CHICA! Where are you".
Maria began to remove her boots as she headed up the stairs and she started to walk down the hall toward Liz's bedroom and that is when she heard a sort of whimpering sound coming from inside. Maria slowly approached the door and noticed that it was already slightly ajar, so she gently kicked it the rest of the way open. When she entered what she saw horrified her, her best friend was back into the far corner of the room and tears streaming down her face with four huge men in black surrounding her.
"What the hell is going on her"?! Maria yelled, now completely standing in the room, "Liz are you okay"? She asked in a panicked state as she rushed over and crouched down next to her friend.
"Maria thank God"! Liz breathed in relief before a new set of tears began to fall
Maria slowly stood and turned around to look directly into the eyes of the men who had attacked her only family. "What do you want from us? Money? Take it all asshole! I don't care, but if you ever hurt my friend in any way I am going to have to kick all your asses"! Maria yelled clearly pissed.
"Ahhh... I see you two have found each other after all! That definitely makes my job easier.", One of the men smiled completely ignoring Maria.
"What are you talking about?", Liz cried from the corner.
"Aliens...", the man pause waiting to see if that would get a reaction out of the two girls, but when they continued to only stare at him blankly he was forced to continue,"You have both been involved with aliens for the last 8 years of your lives!", he finished calmly.
"Aliens! Like from outer space? You have got to be kidding me!", Maria laughed, these guys were nuts.
"No, Miss I am not kidding you", the man replied calmly.
"Maria... what is going on"?!, Liz questioned her best friend worriedly.
"I don't know Chica", that was all she could say.
"Miss DeLuca, would you mind stepping out into the hall with me for a few moment? I have some things I would like to ask you about", the man in black addressed Maria.
"No! I am NOT leaving Liz", was Maria's automatic response.
"You have my word that we will not harm her. We would only like to question each of you alone", the man look around at the other people who were with him and they all began to back off of Liz.
"You have 5 minutes", Maria reluctantly stepped out into the hall.
"Ma'am....", the man was cut off by Maria's indignant voice.
"You won't get anywhere calling me Ma'am, my name is Maria!"
"Alright Maria, we need to talk about a man who goes by the name of Michael Guerin"
"I don't know any Michael!", Maria refused to make this easy for them.
"Really?! I believe you do. He was a legally emancipated minor at the age of 16 due to his father Hank Whitmore abusing him. The two were dating for the last 3 years you were in high school in Roswell, New Mexico. Not that, but Maria you knew his biggest secret of all, the fact that he is an alien".
"Sorry fellas, you have the wrong girl. I don't know this Michael, I never lived in New Mexico, and I think I sure as hell would have remembered if I knew an alien!".
The man was truly baffled, she looked so honest and innocent that he wanted to believe she was telling the truth. "Maybe this will help". He pulled a photograph out his jacket pocket and carefully handed it to Maria, "Now are you going to tell me that this isn't you Maria?".
As her eyes landed on the picture Maria was forced to hold back the gasp that was threatening to escape, because there in the picture she stood at the age of 17 he curly blond hair nearly reaching her waist. And standing behind her with his arms wrapped protectively around her waist was a man about her age with light brown hair that hung to his shoulders and a incredibly sexy smirk on his face. Then she looked at his eyes, they were lightest of brown she had ever seen and it was then that she he was the man from her dreams, "Rath", she breathed quietly hoping the man didn't hear and was thankful when he didn't say anything.
"I honestly do not remember this man even if that was me. I am sorry I couldn't be more help".
"Alright Miss DeLuca", the man had no choice but to let it go for right now.

In the Other Room:
Inside the other room Liz was being interrogated as well, but this weren't as patient, "Miss do you know a Maxwell Evans?", one of the men standing near her asked.
"I have told you a million times. No, no I don't".
This man also retrieved a picture from his coat, only this one had Liz and a man at the age of 18 and they were kissing at what looked like a New Year's Eve party. Liz had been wearing a cheesey little alien themed outfit while the guys behind her wore a black leather jacket over a black T- shirt and a pair of dark jeans. He had dark brown hair and the most soulful chocolate brown eyes that Liz had ever seen. The two of them looked so happy together, Liz couldn't help but wish it were real. Liz had only seen this man one time in her life and even then it wasn't it reality, "Zander", she mouthed and was relieved when the men in front of her didn't appear to notice.
When Liz spoke again it was so everyone could hear. "Although this is me in the picture I don't know that man at all. He certainly doesn't look even remotely like an alien and I have never been involved with him!"
When Liz was finished the man nearest to her said in a deadly calm voice, "If that is so Miss Parker, how is it possible that you are pregnant with an alien half-breed".
"What?", Liz asked even though she could tell by the tone in which the man spoke that everything he said was the truth.
Without answering her the man continued, "You are going to have to come with us, it is very important that we ran some tests and make sure that everything is okay with you and the baby".
Liz didn't know what else to do, she didn't have a choice, she had to protect the baby that was growing inside of her. So Liz slowly stood and allowed the men the men to escort her out of her bedroom.
When the group exited the room Maria was instantly at Liz's side, "Lizzie what are you doing? You can't go with them!", Maria didn't understand why Liz was willing to go with these men who had invaded their home, it just did not make sense.
But then Liz turned to answer her and Maria felt a strange urge to cry, because when Liz looked her in the eye Maria saw that her best friends eyes were lifeless, they held no emotion. "Maria.... I don't know what to do.... I am pregnant!"
"Lizzie what are you talking about?!? That is impossible, I haven't seen you even go on a date since I met you!".
"Maria, I know.... I know all of that, but I am I know it in my heart and I don't have any other choice but to go with them, I am so sorry".
"Don't be sorry, there is nothing to be sorry about, but where ever you go I go!", Maria looked at all the men and the one charge nodded their head, she was going with them, they could use her too.
So without the knowledge of Maria and Liz their home and were now in the clutches of the FBI.

Back on Antar
Alex was fed up, Michael had barely left his room at all since the others had gone missing. Michael only came out of the room to Rath, M.J., and Chloe at bed time because they slept with him at night. Basically Alex and Michael had been keeping to themselves , but Alex was sick of it and needed to talk to Michael. So he decided to try again and bgan to climb the stairs to his friend's chambers.
"Michael! Kids! Come out here now.", Alex yelled as soon he reached the door.
"Go AWAY", Michael hollared right backand pulled Chloe closer to him.
"Michael come on, you have to come out sometime".
"No I don't", Michael said simply.
Just then both Alex and Michael heard the doors to the castle opening and upon seeing that not even someone entering the palace was going to get Michael to come out of his room Alex went to go see what was going on.
When he came to the opening palace gates, Alex couldn't believe his eyes, he even had to close and reopen them to be sure of what he was seeing, because 20 feet away stood Isabel, Max, Ava, and the twins. Alex shook his head and was forced out of his daze as he snapped into action and raced toward Isabel and his children.
"Is....", Alex whispered softly as he wrapped his arms protectively around his wife. After a few seconds Alex pulled back and kissed the kids on their forehead, "I missed you SO much".
"Hey Alex", Max said from behind them with Ava in his arms.
"Hey Man", Alex finally addressed Max.
"Hey Honey, where is Michael?", Isabel spoke for the first time.
"He has locked himself in his room and refuses to come out because he has lost his love", Alex drawled on dramatically with a wave of his hand as if it were nothing new.
"How long has he been in there?", Max asked.
"He has been in there since we heard about Liz and Maria", Alex admitted solemly, all happiness was gone now.
"Damn it!", Max cried as he opunched the wall. He hadn't broke down, complained, or cried once, but right now with his back against the wall he slid down it and landed on the ground, it was then that he let go with tears in his eyes.... he just couldn't take it anymore. He cried, he cried for everything, the tears were flowing down his cheeks, tears for his wife that he had just lost, tears for his brother who locked himself up away from the pain, he cried for the girl he considered a sister and best friend, he shed tears for his beautiful baby girls and for his sweet niece and nephew. The group wasn't whole without Liz and Maria, it was shattered, ripped apart, they were the heart of the group and if they didn't get them back nothing would ever be right again, Max knew this, he also knew that he had to do something about it, so he decided to repress his feelings for now and stood up, picked up his daughters, and turned pointedly to his sister and friend, "We are going to get Michael out of there", he said while leaving a stunned Alex and Isabel behind.
"Michael, come on.... get out of there", Max said calmly as he stood by his best friends door.
"No Maxwell", he said equally calm, he did feel kind of bad for hiding out, but her just couldn't Behr the pain.... and then.... he heard Isabel's voice!
"Damn it Michael Guerin, I demand you quit acting like a child and open this door right this second", she yelled making Max wince, she could be a little scary when she was mad, but then again Michael could be extremely stubborn at times.
"Yes, Almighty Nazi", Michael mumbled as he finally gave up and opened the door with Chole in his arms and Rath right behind him.
"What was that?", Isabel asked while glaring in his direction.
"Nothing", Michael answered quickly and turned toward Max, "So what's next Fearless Leader?"
Max could see that Michael wqas not in the best of moods so he tried to break it to him gently, "Well Michael we are this planets only government, so I honestly don't know when we will be able to get to Earth", Max couldn't believe he had to say that because he wanted nothing more than to hold Liz safely in his arms.
Michael did his best to remain calm, but inside his blood was boiling as he said, "Max can I talk to you alone in the other room?", through gritted teeth. Then he grabbed his best friend by the arm and roughly dragged him to the next room and shut the door, "WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN? You don't know when we can leave? We can leave right now! YOU are the damn KING Maxwell!", Michael poked him in the chest.
"Michael you don't think that I don't want to go there right this second and save my wife, because if you do you couldn't be more wrong. My daughters are in there right now wondering where their mother is and because it would break both our hearts if I told them what was going I have to sit and watch them cry!", Max yelled his own temper rising. "But we have a responsibility to this planet!", he hated to say it, but it was true.
"Yeah, we also have a responsiblity to our wives", Michael growled.
Isabel who had been listening outside the door the entire time realized she needed to go in there and break it up. "Alright you two are both right, but you are acting like a couple of 3 year olds", Isable stated barging through the doors and scaring both the men. "Now, to go about this rationally, I say that all three of you guys go to Earth as soon as tomorrow...". Isabel held her hand up to keep her brother from speaking, "And I will stay here and take care of the children... before you say it is too much for me to handle, may I remind you that I have the whole castle staff here to help me!", Isabel had purposely made it so that there would be no farther dicussion. "Alright, it's settled all three of you leave for Earth tomorrow morning", and with that she left the room with the guy's jaws dropped, they had nothing to argue about.
"I guess we leave tomorrow", Michael mumbled as both guys left the room.
