*Max*
Liz asks when Tess died and I have to raise a mental eyebrow. If she hadn’t died that night in Roswell, what makes Liz so sure that she’s dead now? Just because my daughter is ascending the throne? Possibly. I keep my eyes on this visitor, waiting for an answer. I do have a feeling I’m not going to be able to refuse her demand to go to Antar. Not because ‘the Queen’ ordered it, but because I need to meet my daughter. I need to know what happened there.
Over the years, I’ve tried to put the political problems of Antar from my mind as an unsolvable puzzle. I had no way to get there and no idea what to do if I could. I knew nothing of what has gone on there for the last 16 years. But that didn’t mean I stopped caring. I no longer think of this stranger as an attacker. I really am beginning to feel that she’s sincere and she is not an enemy. She’s offering me the answers to questions that I’ve long thought would be forever beyond my means.
Then again, how can I even consider it? I have a life here. If I went to Antar would I be able to get back? She says the ‘wormhole’ is closing. What if I become trapped there? I can’t leave Liz and Xan and Sarah and they would be in too much danger for me to bring them with me…
But before I get any additional answers, I’m suddenly hit by a wave of intense pain. I fall to my knees as it washes through me. I’m not sure if my eyes or open or closed because suddenly I’m seeing a place as that’s as different from my living room in Roswell as it could be possible to imagine. It’s almost as large as the entire first floor of my house. The ceilings are high and the walls and furniture are covered with ornate decorations that look like nothing on this world. Ahead of me is a woman’s hand extended and a weak green force-field. Beyond that is a man with a head of grey hair, although his face looks young.
“You can not have my father’s throne, Khivar,” I hear. The words seem to come from my own throat and although the words are not in English, I understand them completely. This is the man who planned my assassination. Who’s teams invaded my palace and killed so many of my friends and supporters, including my sister and me.
I feel an undeniable hatred for this man, suddenly knowing where I am. It’s Khivar and I’m on Antar. Just like the day when Xan was born and I found myself on this world, seeing Tess struggling and feeling all of Xan’s fear and the hatred directed towards him. This time, I know it’s Xadalyn I’m with. The daughter I only just learned I have. Although somehow, I feel Xan close-by, too, as if we are still connected, as the darrion said.
“How brave of you, my little Queen, to fight for someone you’ve never met. Someone who didn’t even want you,” the man says. “Rule at my side. I see so much power in you but it’s almost as if your incomplete and can’t tap into it. I can complete you and together our child will be the most powerful in the galaxy.”
No! I wanted you! I never knew! I shout although I don’t know if she can hear my thoughts. I gave up Liz and everything I loved on Earth to protect Tess’s child on Antar. Or I would have if Michael hadn’t left and Liz arrived just in time. Boy or girl, one child or two, the answer would have been the same. Protecting my child was more important than my own desires. All of my children.
“I rather die than let you touch me,” I hear myself say and I’m proud of this girl I’ve never seen although I feel the spike in her fear.
“Death can be arranged.” Khivar says, smugly, smashing my shield and grabbing me by the throat. “That shield was way too easy to get through. What are you using your power on, my little beauty? Oh I see you’ve connected with him. Hello Maxi, how are you? Don’t worry about a thing. I am going to take good care of her for you. I have to say Max, who would have thought that you and Tess would have made such an exquisite creature. You have your fun with your little human and I will have my fun right here.”
No! I shout silently. I won’t let you touch her! But the pain in my throat increases and I struggle to breathe. In a moment, all is dark.

OOC: Okay . . . Honestly speaking, I prefer the earlier version, but I guess what's done is done. It's a little confusing right now, but no one should have to feel bad about anything. It's okay.

Before Sarah could reply, I was, quite suddenly, overcome by an overwhelming sense of . . . something. It was as if I had stepped into another dimension. My comfortable home, my family, the Antarian stranger - they evaporated and I found myself in a large room, a throne room. The feeling was intense, real. I struggled to look ahead and saw a force field, much like the ones that I had seen a number of times before, brought forth by my father. But this one was wavering, dying. Fear wracked my body, though I knew not of what I was afraid.
"You cannot have my father's throne, Khivar," I heard someone say. It was a girl, a young woman. Her voice was soft and weak, as well as strangely familiar. Had I heard it before? Did I know this person?
And the name Khivar. I knew the name. He was an old enemy of my father's back on Antar. I would have thought he'd be dead by then.
I felt genuinely frightened of what was to come. I focused on the person who stood behind the green wall of energy. “How brave of you, my little Queen, to fight for someone you’ve never met. Someone who didn’t even want you,” a deep voice sneered. It belonged to a man this time, and he seemed like a man of authority, judging by the mere tone of words.
The connection I felt with the girl was powerful, immensely strong. It almost made me black out, but I had to stay, had to see. This girl . . . could it be, that she was the twin the Antarian was speaking of? Was this my sister, reaching out to me subconsciously? Or was it a trick of the mind?
“Rule at my side. I see so much power in you but it’s almost as if you're incomplete and can’t tap into it. I can complete you and together our child will be the most powerful in the galaxy.”
"No!" I wanted to scream, but I didn't know if I had actually said it. This was my sister, and this man was trying to take her, control her.
Was she my sister?
“I rather die than let you touch me,” the girl shot back. At that moment, a feeling of disgust entered my system. This man was deluded, he had to be.
And then, suddenly, he did something and the energy shield disappeared completely. That was when I saw him more clearly; he was a young man, it seemed, though his hair was graying, and he had a distinguished air. But there was an understanding that hung in the atmosphere that he was evil, capable of anything. Was this Khivar, though? Wouldn't Khivar have been . . . old?
I had only a few moments to reflect because almost instantly, he flung his hand and I felt my body gliding through the air and hitting a wall, then falling. The pain was terrible; I wasn't sure if I had broken any bones or not, but it sure seemed like it.
Everything played before my eyes like a sci-fi movie, of aliens and powers.
“Death can be arranged. That shield was way too easy to get through. What are you using your power on, my little beauty?” I felt a tight grip around my neck, making me struggle for breath. His eyes were burning into mine. "Oh, I see . . . you’ve connected with him. Hello Maxi, how are you? Don’t worry about a thing. I am going to take good care of her for you. I have to say Max, who would have thought that you and Tess would have made such an exquisite creature. You have your fun with your little human and I will have my fun right here.”
A connection with Max? Was this twin of mine reaching out to my father? Then why was I seeing everything, feeling everything? Had she dialed the wrong number or something, tapped into my brain unconsciously when she really was trying to reach Dad?
I felt the hand around my neck squeezing it harder, tighter, heard the menacing laughter ring throughout the chamber. The emotions - the fear, the pain, the hatred - all swept through my body. I tried to take a few deep breaths, but nothing got through. When trying just didn't pay off and my lungs had been deprived for too long, I gave up, my body gave up, and I fell into an abyss.

Okay! I deleted my post, no big deal! Sorry for all the confussion! Now I will not be posting anything other than Kyria posts from now on! And I hope everyone starts posting to now, so we can get this game going again! It was going good so lets cont.
Kyria
Great, just great I thought as I watched what was going on in front of me. At this rate I was never going to get all these humans through my worm hole and back to my home. Xada was going to kill me, not that she scared me or anything... though she did have looks that I had always swore she could kill with.
I could sense Xada's powers and presence as I watched the father and son. "Xada, what are you doing?" I said under my breathe. I was getting these people there as fast as I could.
I looked at Maxwells wife and she looked horrified as she watched her family. "Umm... Im sure they'll be alright..." I said to her as I walked toward them. "At least I hope they will..." I said to myself.
"Hey! Hey!" I said as I bent down toward Maxwell's body.
"Maxwell... what's worng with Xada!?!? I know she has something to do with this, I can feel her powers being used! If shes in trouble then we must hurry!"

Khivar.
I hadn't seen him since Xan was born although I haven't seen him in person since before I died on Antar. This time, through my daughter's eyes. Xadalyn. Did he kill her? I'm not sure. I think I would know if she had died, but I'm not sure. I think she's alive. She needs help. I have to find her. I have to save her.
I reach for her with my mind, seeking, but I can't find her. It's only inky blackness. The same blackness before my open eyes. I feel like I'm floating in a sea of nothing.
Then, there's something. A touch on my face and the sound of Liz's voice. "Max! Max! Are you okay? Oh god. Xander! Answer me!"
The darkness thins into shadows and shapes as another voice intrudes. "Hey! Hey! Maxwell, what's wrong with Xada?"
I blink and Liz's face appears above me as I realize I'm lying on the floor. "... Liz ..." I whisper and I hear Xan say, "... Mom?"
I blink once more and I'm fully back. I see Alexander on the floor beside me. Sarah bends over him and I remember how I felt that he was nearby when I was there with Xadalyn.
"Xadalyn!" I shout, sitting up so quickly I almost hit Liz with my head. "She's in trouble. It's Khivar! He's hurting her!" I say, breathlessly. "Are you okay, Xan? Did you see it, too?" I ask Xan, reaching for his hand.
Quickly looking around I see the messenger again. I leap to my feet then, standing over her. "What do we do? How can I help her?" She said something about a wormhole and going to Antar. I don't want to leave my family, but I have to help her, too...

I was conscious, I think, but I saw only darkness. I could hear the vague sound of my mother's frantic cries. I forced myself out of the abyss, forced myself to open my eyes.
And when I did, the first thing I saw was my mother's face. Although my vision was somewhat blurred, I could tell that she wore a worried expression. " . . . Mom?" I choked out. At the same time, my father spoke her name. I turned and saw my father lying on the floor as well. He had seen it. We both did.
And I was sure we were feeling the same way, the need to rescue her from- Khivar. An hour ago, we knew nothing of her existence, this Xadalyn. But at that moment, she was our main concern. I felt my heart clench, thinking about her, what he did to her, what he was capable of doing to her. I recalled how close I had felt to Xadalyn just a while ago. She didn't feel like a stranger to me - rather, a part of me.
"Xadalyn! She's in trouble. It's Khivar! He's hurting her! Are you okay, Xan? Did you see it, too?" Dad asked, reaching for my hand.
I nodded dumbly, still quite shocked. For some reason, there was an odd feeling of numbness inside of me. Well, it isn't every day you get sucked into a different zone, only to find that your twin sister - who you knew nothing of before - is in danger.
My father jumped to his feet quite quickly and I followed suit as he asked the Antarian Darrion, "What do we do? How can I help her?"
I stood in front of my father. "Dad," I began firmly. I was well aware that I had no powers, but this was something I knew I had to do. I had a purpose now, and I planned to fulfill it. "What I - what we saw. It brought a painful feeling inside, a terrible feeling. She's my sister. My twin. And thus, my responsibility as well. I want to help her too."
I wondered if referring so forcefully to Xadalyn as my sister would mark some sense of betrayal toward Sarah. But Sarah had to understand - this was important. This was crucial.

"Okay, you know I really do hate to interupt everyone and your little family but we need to go now. Mine Queen is a waiting your arrival.... and I have a feeling were gona need your help even more now. So can me please get this show on the road.. I have a worm hole awaiting all of us. I ensure that your trip to Anatar will be a pleasant one as long as you make it that way! So lets GO!! " I say finally beginnig to get angry.
Xada was in some kind of trouble, in it was my job to get Xada out of trouble... this wouldn't be the first time...
I had been as paitent as I could be with these human. I had been watching them for weeks, and now I was ready to return to Anatar.

I look at Xan with dismay and pride. Dismay because I don't want him going into such a dangerous situation. I'm his father and I'm going to protect him. I'm not going to let Khivar get anywhere near him.
But I'm proud, too. Proud that he wants to help. He looks so strong and so determined, although he's just a child... Then again, I was pretty much the same age as him when I first learned of my past and the future that was planned for me, even 'though it hasn't actually come to pass. I understand that he wants to help. I was there, too. He saw what I saw. And even seeing all that, he's not afraid. Or maybe he is afraid, but wants to help anyway. That's even more amazing...
"Alexander, no. I can't risk you," I say, putting my hands on his shoulders. I look up at Liz, already missing her. I drop my hands and step towards her, reaching up to touch her cheek with a curled finger. "I'll be back as soon as I can," I promise.
"You? You mean 'we,' Max. I'm not letting you go alone," she says, lifting her chin, defiantly.
She's so amazingly beautiful and I love this spirit of hers. I hate having to tell her no, but I need to know that my family is safe. Liz, and Xan and Sarah. "I love you, Liz. Always. I wish you could, but you can't come..."
"Okay, you know I really do hate to interupt everyone and your little family but we need to go now," my escort says. "Mine Queen is a waiting your arrival.... and I have a feeling were gona need your help even more now. So can me please get this show on the road.. I have a worm hole awaiting all of us. I ensure that your trip to Anatar will be a pleasant one as long as you make it that way! So lets GO!! "
I bite my lip, still staring into Liz's eyes, torn between my duty to her and my duty to my daughter and my other world, although I already know what I have to do. I saw her. I saw Khivar hurt her and I have to do what I can to help.
My mind runs towards anything I might need to bring with me. Clothes I can't be bothered with. The healing stones -- I'm sure there will be other stones there. The orbs -- no need to communicate with Antar if I'm there. Better for them to be left here in case Liz needs them to contact me. The destiny book -- no need for that at all. Looks like I don't need anything more than myself.
I pause briefly before Sarah, smiling with all my love for her. I kiss her gently on the top of her head and smooth her hair. "I love you," I tell her before turning to Alex. "You, too," I add, kissing his forehead. "There's so much I hoped I'd have time to explain to you. Mom will tell you. I'll miss you both."
Then I lean in to give Liz one long, deep kiss. I pause, touching her forehead with my own. Our connection opens, and I don't need to use words to show her how much I love her. How much I'm going to miss her. It's more than just flashes. I open my heart to her and I know she can feel all my love and regret, as well my need to help Xada. I can feel her, too. Her love and pride. Her incredible strength. I know she'll get through this. "I'll be back as soon as I can."
Then turn to face my daughter's emissary. "I'm ready," I tell her.

"I'm ready," My father tells the Alien girl. I'm hurt, not that my brother Xan said he wants to help his twin sister, but the part that my father is about to walk out on us. I cry out loud. I’m having trouble controlling my emotions. "You cant go! I am your daughter, I am the one you know and ever love. How can you even do this daddy? How you leave us behind? "I said choking on my words.
I stood here quiet not making a sound out of me. I watch my father and brother passed out from the connection with there called-daughter-and-sister-they-never-knew. In addition, I feel like they are pushing me away, pushing me away from the world my father made us apart of.
If there one moment I like my powers it is now, but the thing is...my powers are helpless. They won’t stop my father walking off."

"Im ready." Max says.
"Okay, lets go!" I say. I raise my hand and move it in a cirular motion and the worm hole opens in the floor. Maxwell looks at me rather oddly.
"Umm...right. I guess you all have never seen a worm hole... so all you got to do is jump in. Its really painless, though the landing may be a little rough..." I say smiling. "After you..."
So after kissing Liz goodbye Maxwell jumps in and Xan follows. After they've jumped into the hole I turn to his wife and daughter, "You know this thing does stay open for a while in case you decide to follow.." I say winking at them, Liz did not look like a woman who had stood back over the years and just let her husband fight on his own. I could very well see her at his side through it all.... because I could imagine that being married to an alien and raising little alien kids could not have been so easy here on Earth.

Alexander
"Alexander, no. I can't risk me," my father said, raising his hand to my shoulder, mixed emotions swimming in the depths of his brown eyes.
He couldn't risk me? He expected me to take that as an answer?
"I'm not letting you go alone," my mother said defiantly.
I guess she wasn't going to accept that either.
My father consoled her and then turned to me, kissing my forehead. It brought a feeling of finality. "There's so much I hoped I'd have time to explain to you. Mom will tell you. I'll miss you both."
I bit my lip. I knew that I would be with him at least until we get to Antar. But he didn't have to know that now.
"You cant go! I am your daughter, I am the one you know and ever love. How can you even do this, daddy? How can you leave us behind?" I heard Sarah cry.
I wanted to comfort her too. She was as much my sister as Xadalyn and I had a duty as her brother to protect her and be there for her, too. But at that moment, it was Xadalyn who was in trouble.
Then, the Darrion opened a sort of portal in our carpeted floor. "I guess you all have never seen a worm hole . . . so all you got to do is jump in. It's really painless, though the landing may be a little rough . . . After you . . ."
I watched my father jump into the vortex. I was determined. I couldn't let him go alone; even if I had no duty to Xadalyn, I was my father's son and thus had a certain duty to him as well. Whether he liked it or not, I was going with him to Antar.
Before stepping in, I wondered if I would ever return home, home to Earth, if I would ever see Mom and Sarah again. I looked at both of them with a tinge of regret.
But this was it. I mouthed, "I love you." I hoped they had seen it.
Then I jumped into the wormhole.
