Part 1

Max is doing his pull-ups when he feels someone watching him. He turns and it’s her, the love of his life, Liz Parker. He hopes that maybe Liz has changed her mind about them being together. Ever since she walked away from him last May, he has felt so empty without her. Only she can make him feel complete.

He walks towards her and she looks at him, without a shirt on, no less. The last time she saw him like this was in Michael’s apartment last February. She remembered how the candlelight made his skin glow. She can tell how much more his muscles have built since then. Get a hold of yourself Liz, she thought.

Max opened the window.

“Well this is a surprise.” Max said.

“It isn’t what you think.” Liz assured him.

Max moves forward to help Liz in but she assures him that she can do it. He looks at her and he notices how red her eyes are and he starts to worry.

“Liz, is everything alright?” He wipes her tears with his thumb.

“No Max.” Liz sobs. “Can you put a shirt on and we can talk.”

“Sure.” Max gets his green shirt and gets a box of tissues.

“Here” He hands her the tissue box. “Come, sit down and then we can talk.” He takes her hand and sits down next to her on his bed.

Max puts his hand on her shoulder and asks “Feeling better?” She shakes her head and says “No.” She looks into his eyes and hugs him tightly.

“Oh god Max, I am so scared.” Liz says and she starts to cry again.

“Ssshhh. Its okay Liz, just tell me what’s wrong.” Max says and he moves his hand up and down her back to comfort her.

“Max?” She asks, looking into his eyes.

“What?” He looks back.

“You know I love you right?”

“Of course I do.”

“And you love me too?”

“Liz, how can you ask me that without knowing the answer? I have loved you since the moment I laid eyes on you and I still love you.” He said as he caressed her right cheek.

“That’s why this is so hard for me to do, but I can’t, I love you too much to let you go.” She said as she held onto him, never letting go.

“Liz, what are you talking about?”

“Kiss me.”

“What?”

“Kiss me and you’ll see.”

Max wiped her tears away, caressed her cheek while their faces moved closer, their lips touched gently and the kiss grew more passionate, arms surrounding each other, never wanting to let go. Then the images came.

Liz going to see the psychic.

Liz pretending to be a bride.

A man that looks like Max but older.

“No you are not Max”

Max serenading Liz.

“We need to change the future.”

“Things between us are about to change...grow deeper. We become inseparable, and nothing comes between us ever again, until...”

“The end of the world.”

“Eventually Tess left Roswell, she was critical to our survival”

“Its you I trust, its you I have faith in.”

“We eloped”

“The night of Gomez, I came to your room, that was the night things between us were cemented.”

“We made love.”

Their lips parted as Max opened his eyes and looked into the one person that makes him whole.

“Liz, thank you.”

“For what?”

“For being you, you were willing to sacrifice our happiness for the world. You are the strongest person I have ever known and I love you even more for it.”

“Oh Max, I love you too so much. That’s why I couldn’t do it, I couldn’t lose you again.”

“Liz, look at me.” He lifted her chin so she could look at him. “You are not going to lose me, I am right here. I’m not going anywhere. I’ll always be here, with you.”

“Max, what about the future? We have to change it somehow.”

“Liz, we already started. You came to me and told me. As for Tess, she is fine if things didn’t change between us since her and Kyle are starting to get closer.”

“Really? Kyle & Tess?”

“I know, I was a little shocked myself. But if we tell her how critical she is to the rest of us, maybe she will stay.”

“Max, I am so happy to be with you again. I felt so empty, so lost, so alone without you”

Max put his fingers to her lips like he did that night her grandmother died.

“Ssshhh Liz, its okay now, we are together now and we are stronger together than we are apart and nothing will ever change that. I will love you forever.”

“As I will.”

“Max, can I stay here tonight?”

“Of course you can.”

“Hold me?”

“Forever.”

Max held onto Liz throughout the night. They fell into a deep sleep. The last time they slept in each others arms was that night in the desert when they declared their love for one another. Things are different now, their love is stronger than ever. They now begin a new chapter in their lives, working towards a new future, together.

Part 2A
The Morning After

Max awoke with a different feeling in him. Only he knows that it was a good feeling. And there she was, his arms surrounded her, her head rested on his chest. She looked so rested, so at peace, that he didn't want to wake her. He could stare at her like this forever.

Liz started to stir and felt a warm feeling beneath her. She opened her eyes slowly and then realized where she was, in Max's bedroom. Her head was on top of him. She lifted her head and smiled at him.

"Morning." Max said.

"Morning to you too." She smiled back at him.

"Did you sleep well?" He asked while cupping her cheek.

"Best sleep I have had in months."

"Same for me."

He ran his hand through her hair and leaned in to kiss her. As the kiss became more passionate, they felt the depths of love that they head for one another. As he was kissing her, his lips trailed past her cheek to her earlobe down to her neck. Her hands went from around his shoulders to around his neck, her fingers ruffled in his hair urging for more.

"Max" Liz moaned

"Hmm"

"This feels really good."

"I know"

"But we have to stop"

He stopped and looked in her eyes.

"Why?"

"Max, the sun is coming up. If my parents fine me not in my bed, I will be in for it."

"You're right. Come on, put your shoes on and I will drive you home."

"You don’t have to."

"No Liz, I want to. Besides, what kind of boyfriend doesn't drive her girlfriend home?"

"You mean that Max? I'm your girlfriend again?"

"Yes, and I hope I am your boyfriend again."

"Without a doubt, I'm yours Max Evans."

"And I'm yours Liz Parker."

Max and Liz gave each other a quick kiss. They finished getting ready and headed out his bedroom window so they didn't wake anyone. Max silenced the engine with his powers so that he wouldn't alarm his parents why he was taking the jeep out before sunrise, especially since Liz was with him. He knew this was going to be a wonderful day.

Liz couldn’t believe it. Here she was, holding his hand, sitting next to the love of her life. She was so happy. It had not been half a day and they can’t seem to keep their hands off each other.

Within minutes, Max and Liz arrived at the Crashdown. Max pulled the jeep into the alley. He came around and looked her, she looked so beautiful. He took her hand and walked her to the ladder that leads up to the balcony.

“I should really get inside before I get busted for being out at 5 in the morning.” Liz said with laughter in her voice.

“Right. I will pick you up at 7:30 and I will drive you to school.” Max offered.

“That would be great Max. Thank you.” Liz thanked him with a simple kiss.

“Its my pleasure. So I will see you in a bit, okay?” Max said.

“Okay. I love you.”

“I love you.”

She kissed him once more before she climbed up the ladder. She climbed up the ladder very quietly; if her dad caught her she is sure her father would have Max shot. When she got up to the top, she looked down and there he was, the perfect boyfriend making sure she got home safely. What would she do without him?

Summary: Story starts in the Season 2 episode End of the World. Liz does not “sleep” with Kyle. Max finds out about Future Max. The story starts in the scene when Liz comes to Max’s bedroom window when he is doing pull-ups.

Part 2B


Liz saw Max leave so he could get back home before his parents woke up. She went across her balcony in the window to her bedroom. Everything was exactly as she left it but she felt different. She looked in the mirror, she was actually smiling. The first time she was actually happy in months. She looked around for him, but Future Max was nowhere to be found. She turned to her bed and found an envelope. It had her name on it and the handwriting was familiar to her. She opened it and it read:

Dear Liz,

It’s about an hour after you left for Max’s house and I felt different. I looked at my left hand and I was starting to fade. This told me that you succeeded. You found a way for you and Max to be together and the future was changed because of that. This is a different world now. Be happy Liz, you and Max deserve this happiness.

One more thing. We create our own destines which is what you and Max have done.

Max

Liz started to cry. She did it. She succeeded. She knew now it was okay for her to be happy with Max without worrying about the consequences. With that in mind, she went to take a shower since she had about 2 hours before Max was picking her up for school.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Max pulled his jeep into the parking space in front of the Crashdown and waited for Liz to come out. There she was, she looked so radiant, and he was the luckiest man in the world.

She stepped into the jeep and gave him a kiss.

“Hi” she said with a smile.

“Hey.” He said back and kissed her again.

“You were right.”

“About?”

“The future. Future Max left me a letter and told me that the future has been changed. He said we could be happy without worrying about the future.”

“See I told you everything would work out.”

“I know, I never doubted you Max, but we still need to talk to the others especially since now we are back together.”

“I totally agree.”

He looked at her with love in his eyes. She looked back at him puzzled.

“What?” She asked.

“Did I tell you how much I love you?”

“Not yet, but it’s always good to hear.”

Within moments, Max and Liz arrived in the parking lot at West Roswell High. They came out of the jeep, holding hands. Curious eyes looked. Pretty much everyone knew that Liz broke up with Max back in May and just over night they were back together.

Max and Liz walked through the halls and ran into Maria who looked like she had a bad night.

“Hey guys. What’s this? Are you guys back together?!? Please say yes!” Maria asks without taking a breath.

Max and Liz laughed. Liz looked at Max and he shaked his head as a signal to tell Liz that she could tell Maria.

“Yes Maria we are, actually it’s a very long story that we need to tell everyone.” Liz said and noticed that Maria didn’t look like her usual self.

“Maria, is everything ok?” She asked

“Actually its not, its about Michael.”

“What did he do now?” Max asked.

“I found this photo of him in Courtney’s locker that looked like she was stalking him or something so I went to her place and I found him there and Courtney was there also, but in a towel.” Maria said with the disappointment in her voice.

Liz went to her and hugged her tightly trying to comfort her.

“Maria I am so sorry. I promise you I will find out what is going on, okay?” Max offered.

“Thanks Max, I appreciate that.” Maria said.

“Listen, have you seen Kyle or Tess anywhere?” Liz asked.

“Actually yes, I saw them making out on the bleachers on the track field before. Is there something going on that I don’t know about?” Maria said.

“Well, what happened between Liz and I kind of has to do with Tess and the fact that she is getting involved with Kyle helps out the situation a little more. All we can tell you is that Tess has to stay in Roswell because of the whole our enemies are on earth thing.”

“Its always alien related isn’t it.” Maria joked.

“Life wouldn’t be interesting if it wasn’t.” Liz joked about the whole situation. Its true she would never have gotten to know Max if it wasn’t for that fateful day in the Crashdown.

“Oh, there’s Michael. I better go talk to him about Courtney. I’ll see you later okay sweetheart?” Max said to Liz.

“Okay honey, I love you.” She said and kissed him softly on the lips.

“I love you too.” Max said back to Liz.

“Hey Michael, can we talk?” Max said to Michael as he caught up to him at his locker.

“Hey Maxwell, we have a serious problem.” Michael told his fearless leader.

“Is it about Courtney?” Max asked.

“I think she might be a skin.” Michael told Max his assumption about Courtney.

Thank you everyone for the awesome feedback. I didn't want to keep you waiting until tonight for another part, so here it is:

Part 3

“Are you absolutely sure Michael?” Max wondered if maybe Michael was jumping to conclusions. This wouldn’t be the first time.

“Maxwell I am telling you, all the signs are pointing at that assumption. She came to Roswell after the signal went out, her picture was in Whitaker’s office, Maria found a picture of me in her locker and when I was at her place I found a cabinet full of body lotion, not to mention a piece of skin at the side of the cabinet.” Michael explained.

“Okay, I believe you, but we have to keep low key around her to make her see that we aren’t on to her. Let’s gather everyone else up and have a meeting after school at the Crashdown. I think we have a lot to talk about.” Max sighed, he did want to get a lot off his chest.

“Is what I saw true, you and Liz are finally back together?” Michael is hoping he said yes, he couldn’t take the awkward conversations between the two anymore.

“Yes it’s true, but it’s a lot to go into detail right now, I will explain it later. Tell whoever you can, and my advice, don’t go near Maria right now, she is very upset when she came to Courtney’s last night.” Max being the friend that he is didn’t want Michael to upset Maria even more.

“Will do, I’ll go find Isabel, Alex and Tess and fill them in.”

“Don’t forget to tell Kyle if you run into them.”

“Why Kyle?”

“Apparently he and Tess are now an item.”

“Are you kidding me? You mean Tess is backing away from the whole destiny crap.”

“I guess so, the fact that she’s moved on makes my life a little easier.”

“Gotcha Maxwell, I’ll catch you later.”

“Later.”

With the plan in set, Max had a clear head but he also feared of the outcome. If Courtney is a skin, is it possible that Whitaker told her about us, about Liz? He felt the need, as always, to protect her, to protect the one that he loves. He would do whatever in his power to keep her safe from their enemies.

He waited for her after class to fill her in about what Michael told him and to check to see how Maria was doing. The door opened and students began to rush out of class and there she was. She had a bright smile on her face, walked over to him, gave him a hug around his neck and gave him a kiss, nice and slow.

“Hey.” She said

“Hey. How was class?”

“Very slow, I missed you.”

“I missed you too.” He kissed her again. “Liz, we need to meet at the Crashdown after school, something’s up.”

“Sure, what’s going on?”

“Apparently, Courtney might be a skin.”

Her eyes became wider, she was shocked to hear it.

“Don’t worry. I won’t let anything happen to you. At this point I don’t think any of us should be alone tonight. I will always be here for you.”

“I love you Max and I am not worried.”

“I love you too.”


Later that day, the whole gang met up at the Crashdown. Since Liz’ parents weren’t home for the weekend, they thought it would be easier if they all had their meeting in Liz’ living room.

“So what’s this all about Max?” Isabel asked.

“Well, there a few things we need to discuss, one of them is about Courtney and who she is and the other has to do with Liz and me.” Max explained.

“Well, what is it?” Tess asked.

“Well Tess, it actually has a little bit to do with you.” Liz said to her.

“Me? What are you talking about?”

“Well, a few nights ago, I had a visitor; it was Max from the year 2014. He said that 14 years from now, we were taking over by our enemies. The reason we failed is that you left Roswell and without you, Max, Isabel and Michael couldn’t win the war. The four of you make a complete unit, with one missing, they aren’t at full strength. Future Max wanted me to make present-day Max fall out of love with me but I couldn’t go through with it. I told Max the truth and Max told me that you were starting up with Kyle so that told me that the future already has been changed. Since then, Max and I are now together.”

“Liz, you are right, Kyle and I are together now and I have you and Max to thank for that, if it wasn’t for you Liz, I wouldn’t have gotten to know him and I am sorry Max for all that I put you through since I arrived in Roswell. I hope you two can you forgive me.”

“We appreciate that Tess and hope that you will stay in Roswell for our sake.” Max said.

“I will Max, thank you.”

“Okay, Max, Liz, I am glad you guys are back together, but what’s the deal with Courtney?” Alex asked, a little nervous on the outcome of the whole deal.

“Well, I discovered last night that Courtney may be one of the Skins hiding out here in Roswell.” Michael said.

“Do you know if she was working with Whitaker?” Isabel asked.

“We think it’s possible, but we can’t be sure. We have to keep this low key, act like nothing as changed so she doesn’t suspect that we are on to her. In the mean time, I don’t think anyone should be alone just in case she reveals herself to one of us.” Max revealed his plan to everyone.

“Kyle and Tess are fine since they are living together. Maria you can stay with Isabel and Alex can stay with Michael. I will stay at Liz’ tonight. Since Liz was working with Whitaker, its possible Courtney might be on to her.” Max kept his arms surrounding Liz while revealing this plan to everyone. He wanted to make sure that no one was alone tonight, especially Liz.

“Everyone agree?” He asked for everyone’s input.

“Yes.” Everyone agreed, for once.

“Alright so everyone go about your business as usual like this meeting never happened. Agreed?”

“Yea.”


Liz finished her shift at the Crashdown and said good night to Maria. Courtney was no where in sight which she didn’t know if that was good or bad. She was just glad Max was here, she would be going crazy if he wasn’t.

Both Liz and Max were in her bedroom, just lying down on her bed. His arms surrounded her, keeping her safe, as long as his arms were around her, no harm could come to her. He wished they could stay like this forever.

“Max?” Liz whispered.

“Yea?” He replied.

“Do you think about the future?” She wondered.

“Everyday.”

“What do you think about?”

“As long as you are with me, that’s all I need for the future. I want to give you everything Liz, I want you to see you turn 18 and then 21, have a wedding day, maybe even have children. I am hoping I will be the one to give you all these things.”

“I know it Max, I want all those things that you just said. As long as I am with you, I know I will always be happy, because you do it Max, it’s all you and I love you.”

“I love you too.” Max said and kissed her passionately, he was hoping he would be able to give her all those things, he would never forgive himself if anything happened to her. She was his everything.

Summary: Story starts in the Season 2 episode End of the World. Liz does not “sleep” with Kyle. Max finds out about Future Max. The story starts in the scene when Liz comes to Max’s bedroom window when he is doing pull-ups.

Part 4A

He approached her balcony and walked towards her window. She was wearing a silk robe. Its like she knew he was coming. Nothing between them should surprise him, its all like magic when he is with her. He came closer and closer to his angel, she turned and saw him and she had the brightest smile he had ever seen. She came to the window and opened it and allowed him into her room. He could feel how different the air was around them. He saw candles everywhere. She turned and went to her stereo. Everything by Lifehouse was on. He knew that this was going to be their song. He felt it described the way he felt about her. He knew that I Shall Believe would be too painful for her.

She walked towards him, put her hands around his neck and kissed him, the kiss grew deeper, more passionate, he felt her need for him, he looked into her eyes and knew how much she wanted him.

“Liz.” He whispered.

“I love you Max and I want to be with you tonight. I want this to be our night.”

“Are you sure you are ready for this Liz? I won’t force you to do anything you don’t want to do”

“I am sure Max, Make love to me Max”

He approached her lips slowly, with a gentle touch he cupped her cheek, the kiss grew, she could feel his need as much he could feel hers. She ran her hands up his chest, unbuttoning his shirt one by one she slowly drew his shirt off. He looked at her making sure this is what she wanted. He saw her eyes glow with desire for him. He ran his hands down her arms to the knot of her robe and slowly untied it. He drew his hands higher to the collar of her robe, slowly pulling it down her arms, what he didn’t realize is that there was nothing underneath. She looked at him with more desire than before, she dragged her hands down his chest down to the buttons of his pants. She unbuttoned his pants, drew down the zipper, pulled down his pants and boxers all at once.

He took her in his arms and drew her to the bed. Of course, she had her own plan. She had her legs around his waist and just kissed him while his hands roamed her back. This was the first time they have seen each other like this and they wanted to savior every moment. He pulled her down on the bed on her back with him on top of her.

“Make love to me Max, I want to feel you inside of me.”

“Your wish is my command. I love you so much Liz.”

“I love you Max, take me now.”

Just then they heard a beeping noise.

Morning.

Liz’ alarm clock went off, she woke up and was so upset, this has happened every night since Max started sleeping with her in her bed. She has been having the same dream for a week, she wondered if he dreamed of her. She turned over and look at him, he looked so peaceful. She knew this felt right, him being here with her. She knows someday they might be able to go further in their relationship but she knew they couldn’t not with everything going on. She could feel him starting to wake up. She caressed his cheek and he opened his eyes. Those beautiful eyes, they got to her every time he looked at her.

“Good morning” She said

“Morning, did you sleep okay?”

“As a matter of fact I did until my alarm woke me up.” She joked.

“What time is it?” He yawned.

“6:30” She check the clock.

“I have to do one thing before 6:31.”

“And what is that Mr. Evans?”

“This.”

He sat up, caressed her cheek and pulled her in for a good morning kiss. He could definitely get used to this. Waking up with Liz by his side every morning. But they were young, maybe after high school they could move in together, hopefully they will end up at the same college. Their kiss grew more passionate and he got a flash.

“Liz.” He whispered.

“I love you Max and I want to be with you tonight. I want this to be our night.”

“Are you sure you are ready for this Liz? I won’t force you to do anything you don’t want to do”

“I am sure Max, Make love to me Max”

He opened his eyes and looked at her; she dreamed the same dream he did. But he had to be sure, he didn’t want to embarrass her but he had to know if they were sharing the same dreams.

“Liz, I just had a flash but I actually dreamt it last night. Did you dream of us making love last night?”

“Max, yes I did, did you have the same dream?”

“Yes I have, I have been having the same dream every night since I started sleeping over.” He blushed; she now knew what he was dreaming. He felt so embarresed that she knew he was dreaming of her like that.

“Max its okay, don’t feel embarrassed.” She caressed his face telling him that everything was okay.

“Liz, I didn’t say that. Oh my god, Liz, you must’ve read my mind.” His eyes just grew wider.

“What does this mean Max? I am becoming one of you?”

“I don’t know, we know that you can get flashes from me, maybe when I healed you last year, its starting to take effect.” He looked at her with concern. She started to look like she was going to break down.

She fell into his arms and hugged him tightly. She was so scared. He could feel her fear. He tried to comfort her.

“Shhh, its okay Liz, I won’t let anything happen to you, I promise.”

“I know Max, its just this is all new to me and I don’t know what to expect with this possibility that I might be able to hear someone’s thoughts.”

“We’ll figure this out, don’t worry.”

“I know we will, come on we should get ready for school. Do you have another plan of what we are going to do next?”

“We can’t really do anything, no one has seen Courtney around in the last week, its been quiet at Whitaker’s office. We should just keep on laying low until she approaches one of us.”

“And there hasn’t been anything in the news about her either so no one knows that she is dead.”

“True. I should get back home before Mom wakes up Isabel.”

“Okay, I’ll see you later.”

He gave her a quick kiss before he left.

“I love you Max”

I love you too Liz. I’ll pick you up in an hour.”

“Okay, bye.”

Part 4B

Later that school day.

In a classroom during their lunch period, the gang is telling each other if there has been any suspicious activity in the past week. So far nothing has been reported. They have the television on and a news bulletin comes on.

We have this story just in. A controversial New Mexico congresswoman is dead. We'll have that story in just a minute.

All their eyes went wide with shock. How can the media knows that Whitaker is dead where there is no body?

Widowed just 6 months before her husband John Whitaker's upcoming election, she took his place on the ballot and won the election by a higher margin than any Democrat in 15 years. But all that ended yesterday, just outside her hometown of Copper Summit, Arizona, where a tragic single-car accident cut short a life of public service.

“A car crash? “ Tess said shockingly.

“She died 2 weeks ago. I was there. “ Isabel said in an angry tone.

“We were all there Isabel. We’re the only ones that knew what really happened to her.” Max said

“So who would be covering up her death?” Maria asked.

“Nasedo said the skins were among us. Skins, plural. Maybe other skins created a fake car accident to keep the Feds from looking too closely into Whitaker's background.” Isabel assumed.

“What do we do Max?” Liz looked up at Max with worried eyes.

“Lets go back to her office and see what we can find.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Max, there are like 15 messages here.” Liz noted the number of messages on the machine since 2 hours ago.

“Has anybody been asking questions over the past few days?”

“People have been calling. I just have been saying that she's on vacation, just like we said.”

“Well, somehow the skins know that she's dead.”

"Hey guys, look at this. The postmark says Copper Summit. It's from something called the Universal Friendship League.” Tess found a letter that looked like a clue.

“Whitaker never mentioned it.” Liz said.

“What the hell is the Universal Friendship League? Could it sound any creepier?” Isabel said totally wigged out about it.

Max opens the envelope and reads the letter out loud to the group.

“Vilandra? “ Isabel whispered

“Does that mean something to you?” Max asked.

“That’s what Whitaker said was my name back on our home planet. She told me some things that I did in our past life that I can’t really talk about yet.” Isabel told him part of the story, she wasn’t ready to tell him that she betrayed him in their past life.

“I am gonna call them and see what I can find out.” Liz said as she dialed.

“Hi, um, is this the...the Universal Friendship League? I...I'm calling from Congresswoman Vanessa Whitaker's office. We just, um, opened this letter this morning and...I wanted to call and apologize for not responding sooner. We just wanted to let you know that, unfortunately, Congresswoman has passed away.” Liz said during the phone conversation. The person on the other line didn’t sound so concern that Congresswoman was dead, which made this even more suspicious.

"Max, they just hung up and wasn’t concerned about her death. That was so weird.”

"Liz, we're going to Arizona and I need you to come since you were the only one close with Whitaker.”

“Sure Max”

“Michael, you stay here in case Courtney shows up and call me the minute you hear something. We don’t need her calling anyone in Copper Summit to let them know that we are coming into town.” Max told Michael. They didn’t need any surprises on the way to Arizona.

“Gotcha Maxwell.”

“Okay, Liz, Isabel, Tess, Alex and Kyle, pack an overnight bag and we will meet in the alley behind the Crashdown in an hour. Tell your parents that you are going to a memorial service for Congresswoman. That should be our cover story for the weekend. Liz, I need to speak to you for a minute.”

“Sure Max.”

Everyone left leaving Max and Liz in private. He came up to her and kissed her. Their lips part and Liz had the worry look in her eyes that
Max always knew when something was wrong.

“Liz, with everything going on right now with the Congresswoman, I don’t think it’s a good idea to bring up your possible power development. We don’t even know if this is a one time thing.”

“I understand Max, I probably would have done the same thing.”

“I know.”

“Don’t worry Liz, everything is going to be fine, I promise you. I love you.” He looked deep into her eyes, he could see right into her soul as she could look into his.

“I know, I love you too, always and forever.”

They held onto each other for a little while before they had to part. They hoped on this trip they would find out some of the answers they were looking for. They didn’t know they would be walking into a dangerous situation.

Part 5

3 hours later.

Two cars were heading to Copper Summit, a jeep and an SUV. Tess, Kyle, Isabel and Alex rode in Tess’ SUV, that Nasedo left her after he died, and Max and Liz rode in the jeep.

Max was driving, but both hands weren’t on the wheel. One hand was on the wheel, but the other was around the girl that he loved. She fell asleep an hour ago and was sleeping peacefully. She was his angel. He didn’t want to wake her, but he had to since they were approaching Copper Summit.

“Liz, honey, it times to wake up.” He said as he kissed her forehead to awake her.

I mean, its your destiny right?

I wish I could go back Liz, back when things were normal with us.

Me too. Liz paused. I just wish that I could have stopped you from saving my life that day at the Crashdown.

Don’t say that Liz. I never regretted that choice I made to save your life.
But Max, the day you saved my life, your life just ended.

No Liz, that’s the day my life began. You gave me a life to live. Liz, when I was in that room and they did all those inhuman things to me, you were all I could think about, you kept me alive Liz. The thought of you, all the times we’ve spent together, the way your eyes look into mine, your smile, the touch of your soft skin, your lips, the kisses we’ve shared, the love we feel for each other. Liz, knowing you has made me who I am, I feel human because of you. I’ve never felt like that before until I first saw you when I came off that school bus. Whether I die tomorrow or fifty years from now, my destiny is the same. Its you Liz, only you. I love you so much.

I love you.

Liz awoke from her dream, that night felt like a lifetime ago, but here she was, surrounded in the arms of the man she loved, and loved her back. She looked up at him and smiled.

“Hey.”

“Hey.”

“How long have I been asleep?”

“A little over an hour.”

“Are we close to Copper Summit?”

“Almost there.”

“Great, I need to stretch soon.”

“I know how you feel. Did you dream?”

“Yes, only it wasn’t a dream, it really happened but I think it was a clue.”

“What do you mean?”

“Do you remember when we got you out of the White Room that night?”

She hated to ask him to relive those memories but he surprisingly got passed it somehow.

“Yea, why?”

“I was dreaming about when we were in the van hiding from the FBI.”

“That was a great night.”

“Yea it was.”

They both had a smile on their faces remembering what they had said to each other that night.

“What made you dream that?”

“Well the conversation started with talking about your destiny.”

“And?”

“And I am wondering if there’s more to it in the book that we saw Tess take from the library that night. She didn’t really explain much about it did she?”

“Not really?”

“Maybe there’s a way we can decode it. There’s got to be more to it. I mean the message from your mother didn’t say much. Maybe it can tell us more about your destiny and who your enemies are.”

He was staring at her again, he couldn’t help it. He loved how her brain worked.

“What?”

“Do you know how much I love how your mind works?”

“Oh really? And what else do you see that you like?” She started stroking her fingers down his chest to his thighs.

Max pulled the jeep over, unbuckled his seatbelt and Liz went into his arms. He cupped her cheeks with his hands as did she.

“I love you Liz Parker. I love everything about you, your eyes, your lips, your hair, your body, mind and soul. I love you so much.”

Their faces came closer as their lips touched. Lightly at first and then the passion grew. He kissed her eyebrows, her cheeks, nibbled on her right ear as his lips traveled further down her neck. He could hear her moans of pleasure and feel her desire.

As pleasure and desire filled her mind, so did the images. They came so fast she couldn’t tell how many there were until a man appeared.

“So long Zan.”

“No!!!!!” His sister cried as she watched her brother died.

The flashes stopped and Liz broke the kiss. She was shaking, so frightened. Max could feel her fear. His hands were on her shoulders. He was worried, what could she have seen? He never saw her fear like this before.

“Liz, what’s wrong? What did you see?”

His hands cupped her cheeks to calm her.

“I saw you executed in your past life Max. It was….” She started to break down in tears. “Oh god, Max, it was so frightening.” She cried further, he wiped her tears with his thumbs.

“Its alright Liz, its alright. Who did you see?”

A silence came until she spoke the name.

“Kivar.”

Part 6

Kivar.

He didn’t know why, but that name sent a shiver down his spine. Another thought came to his mind. Was this the enemy that his mother talked about, the one that killed them in their past lives? Is it possible that Kivar somehow made his way to Earth and know where the Royal Four were hiding? Another thought came to his mind, but not only a thought, a fear. Fear that Kivar might know about Liz. If he lost her, he didn’t know what he would do. Stop it. You are not going to lose her. he thought. But he couldn’t get the fear he saw in her eyes out of his head. Before he could anything, they needed to find out more about this Kivar. He would do whatever in his power to protect her. To protect his family.

My family another thought. He did like the sound of it. Liz was his family. He would hope that someday, somehow he would be able to give her the family she always dreamed of.


They arrived in Copper Summit minutes later. It wasn’t what they expected. It was a lot smaller than Roswell. Max pulled the jeep into the local gas station to see if they can get some info on where the Congresswoman’s family lived to pay their respects to her family. But of course to get some info about her as well.

While Max was talking to the gas attendant, Liz went to the one person she thought might have the answers for her about her latest vision.

“Tess? Can I talk to you for a minute?”

“Sure Liz. What’s up?”

“Well, I don’t know how exactly to ask you this so let me start at the beginning, okay?”

“Okay.”

“Well, I have been getting these flashes lately, but I got this one vision from Max’s past life.”

“Really? What happened?”

“I saw Max in his past life, his name was Zan and I saw his execution by a man named Kivar. He killed him right in front of Isabel. It scared the shit out of me Tess, but I don’t understand how I am getting visions of his past life?”

“Well I don’t seem to recall Nasedo ever telling me about Kivar, then again we hardly ever talked. But about you getting visions, maybe because you and Max are so connected you can see into his past. I mean, after he healed you, maybe some alien traits are starting to show in you. Since he had to pool his energy in you in order to heal you.”

“Is there anyway we can find out more about Kivar?”

“Nasedo left a lot of stuff behind, maybe there is something in the book about it.”

“Thanks Tess, I really appreciate this.”

“You’re welcome Liz. I’m glad I could help, I know we got off to a rough start, but I’m really happy we are getting along now.”

“So am I, speaking of..how are things with you and Kyle?”

“Everything is great actually. When things settle down a bit, we are probably going to go on a date.”

“That’s great! How are you dealing living in the same house as him?”

“Its not as bad as I thought it would be, but I’m adjusting really well. Both Jim and Kyle are treating me great.”

“I’m happy things worked out for you.”

“Me too.”

Tess paused. She wanted to get this out before either one of them parted.

“Liz?”

“Yea.”

“I also wanted to apologize.”

“For what?”

“For trying to come between you and Max. And for putting those ideas in his head.”

“Please Tess, that’s all in the past now. You only did what you were told to. You decide your own destiny Tess. That’s what Future Max told me. If you want my advice, you decide what you want for yourself, not what someone else tells you.”

“Thank you Liz.”

“No, thank you Tess. I actually never got a chance to thank you.”

“For what Liz?”

“For bringing him back to me. If it wasn’t for you, Pierce would have killed him.”

“You helped too Liz.”

“How?”

“Max held onto you Liz. He didn’t lose faith that he would come back to you. Pierce threatened your life Liz, if Max didn’t tell him where the other orb was, he would have killed you.”

“Oh my god. He didn’t tell me. He never told me anything about what happened to him in there.”

“Liz, it was because of that orb I was able to trick Pierce, to get Max out of there, and bring him back to you. And I saw the way his eyes lit up when he saw you waiting for him. I never saw true love like that before and I am happy for you both, you two are true soulmates.”

“Thank you Tess.”

And an amazing thing happened, Liz and Tess shared a hug. Tess opened up to Liz for the first time since she first arrived in Roswell last April. About how she knew what Max saw in Liz, how much he loved her. Liz had a pure soul and Tess was never around anyone like her before. She knew this was the beginning of a friendship that she never thought she would have.

Max was coming back to the jeep and couldn’t believe what he saw. A touching moment between Liz and Tess. He never thought he would see the day when this has happened. Liz and Tess parted with smiles on their faces. Liz made her way back to Max. When she returned, Max lowered his face to give her a soft kiss.

“Hey.”

“Hey, what was that all about?”

“What?”

“Between you and Tess.”

“Oh, just a little girl talk.”

“Oh. So you guys are starting to get along now?”

“Well, I actually wanted to talk to her about that last vision I had.”

“What did she say?”

“She is going to go through all of Nasedo’s things to see if she can find out more about Kivar. We also worked things out with everything that happened last May.”

“Great. I am glad things worked out.

“Me too. Did you find out where Whitaker’s family lived?”

“Yea, just down this road.”

“Perfect.” Spoken from a deep voice by a tall, dark man that the group could not see, “Everything is falling into place.”

Veronic I know, I totally agree

Earth2Mama I know what you mean. I am a die hard dreamer and I did not want anything happening to dear sweet Alex and to have Tess go towards Kyle instead

Happy New Year to one and all. And on with the show!

Part 7

Let me give you a little history. About your planet. Your name was Vilandra and you were beautiful, even more beautiful than you are now. You had a great love, and for him, for us. You betrayed your brother, your race, you sacrificed him, you sacrificed everyone, even yourself. And history my dear always repeats itself.

Isabel awoke suddenly from Alex’s shoulder. She couldn’t get what Whitaker said out of her head. She didn’t know if it was true or not. Should she believe her? For all she knew it could have been a trick, to divide and conquer.

Alex was getting concerned. Isabel hasn’t been the same since she got that message from her real mother about her destiny, but especially since her birthday three weeks ago. She never told anyone what happened that night.

“Isabel?”

“Yea Alex.”

“What’s wrong? Did you have a bad dream?” He said as he cupped her cheek with his hands hoping she would tell him what’s frightening her so much.

“No, it’s something else.”

“What do you mean?” He said, looking puzzled as to what she was about to say.

“It’s a recurring event playing in my head.”

“Does this have to do with the night of your birthday?”

“Yes, Alex. I never told anyone about what happened that night when I went to rescue Tess.”

“You can tell me Is, you have to let me in.”

“I think I will.” She smiled at him, knowing she could tell him anything.

“Alex, take my hands”

“Okay.” And he did.

Isabel was sending him images of what happened to her that night. From the visions she received from Tess to finding her in that abandoned factory to discovering who kidnapped her from what Whitaker told Isabel about her past life and then when Isabel made that fateful choice to kill Whitaker. He felt what she felt. She felt guilty, she never killed anyone before, and she didn’t know what to think at that moment. He then spoke.

“Wow. No wonder you’re so bent of shape.”

“Well now you know, you know what a terrible person I am.”

“Isabel, that doesn’t change anything, that doesn’t change who you are.”

“Yes it does Alex. I was a traitor to everyone, to Max, my mother, my whole planet.” She started to shed tears and Alex being the perfect boyfriend ran his thumb to shed away her tears.

“Isabel, look at me. That wasn’t you. That was someone else in a different lifetime. I know you, you could never do anything like that, ever.”

“You really believe that Alex?”

“I do, I believe in you Isabel. I wouldn’t be here if I didn’t.”

The next thing he was going to say, he has waited to tell her for a year and he thought now was the time to do so.

“I love you Isabel. You are all that matters to me, here and now.”

“I love you too Alex. I never stopped loving you.”

Isabel started to cry. No one has ever said that to her before but she knew he meant it. She’s never loved anyone the way she loved Alex and he felt the same way. Their faces leaned in closer as their lips touched with a tender kiss after declaring their love for one another.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

A jeep and an SUV approached the home of a Mr. and Mrs. Crawford, parents of the passed Vanessa Whitaker. Liz called the Crawfords earlier to let them know they were coming for the memorial service. Mrs. Crawford insisted that they stay at their place since the memorial was in the early morning. Liz said they could stay at the local motel, but Mrs. Crawford wouldn’t hear of it. The gang got out of their vehicles and approached the small house.

“You’re on.” Max whispered to Liz.

Max, Liz, Isabel, Alex, Tess and Kyle approached the walkway to where Mrs. Crawford was standing looking over her mail that she just received.

“Hi Mrs. Crawford. I’m Liz Parker, Vanessa’s assistant. We talked on the phone.”

“Oh right, Liz Parker.”

“I’m really sorry to hear about Vanessa. It’s just so terrible.”

“Why thank you dear. What are you doing here?”

Oh well, there were some of your daughter’s personal effects left in her office and I thought you should have them.”

“Oh honey, that is so sweet. My lord, you didn’t have to do that.”

“It’s quite alright Mrs. Crawford.”

“Oh, did you all work with Vanessa?”

“Not exactly.” Isabel said.

“Oh, I’m sorry, this is Max, Isabel, Alex, Kyle and Tess.”

“Walt! Visitors! These young people drove all the way up here to bring home some of Vanessa's things.”

“Why didn't they just send them? “

“What a thing to say! After they went to all that trouble. You must be so tired and hungry after that long drive. Come on in the house. I want to make you something to eat.”

Inside the house, the gang was sitting down in silence while Mrs. Crawford was in the kitchen and Mr. Crawford was listening to country music on record.

“Did you take the 70?” Mr. Crawford asked Max which route they took to Arizona.

“No, the, uh, the 10.”

“Walt, did you hear that?” Mrs. Crawford asked as she came into the living room.

“They came all this way for her service.”

“Well, we felt like...like we should come. You know, the congresswoman, she was very...she was special...to all of us.” Liz said, trying to sound sincere about their daughter.

“Like a mother.” Isabel said. And Alex looked back at her knowing how hard it is for her to be in the house of an alien that she herself killed.

Isabel notices a boy who is peeking in at them. It's Nicholas, Vanessa Whitaker's brother

“Hi.” Isabel said.

“Nicholas, there you are! Come on in here. Come on, say hello.” His mother said.

“No, ma'am.” Nicholas sounded scared to see these strange visitors that were in his home.

“He took it real hard. He and his sister were very close.” Ida said softly to the group.

“Maybe we'd better just find a hotel. We don’t want to overcrowd you here.”

“All six of you? At that old Motor Inn? I won't hear of it! You're all going to spend the night here, and then tomorrow we can go to the memorial service together.”

“Are you sure? “ Alex asked.

“If Vanessa was like your mother, we're like your grandparents. We'll treat you just the way Vanessa would have wanted. Well, ok, let's eat up, there!” Mrs. Crawford said.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Meanwhile back in Roswell, Michael and Maria were staking out the apartment across the street from his. Based on the pictures Maria found, Courtney has been stalking Michael since the minute she set foot in Roswell.

“This isn't going to work. She's not just going to stroll up to her hideout while we're sitting here watching her.” Maria said.

This was your idea pixie.

“Okay, 1, don’t call me pixie and 2. that's not the way I remember it.”

“Ok, so now it's my fault.”

“You know what? Just to make things simpler, from now on you should consider everything to be your fault, ok? Ok.”

“Well, I know one way to make the time go faster.”

“Oh, funny.”

“I know.”

“But if we can talk reality here for a second, I think she booked. Out of town.”

“No dice. She wouldn't do that. She's obsessed with me.”

“Well, I guess that makes 2 of you, then, doesn't it?”

“She'll show up sooner or later.”

And then out of nowhere.

“How 'bout sooner?” Courtney appeared.

Michael and Maria turn around to see Courtney in front of them. Michael immediately goes into his energy blast pose.

“Whoa! Hey, truce.” Courtney holding her hands up in surrender mode.

“Don't move.” Michael says while his hands are still in energy blast pose.

“Don't worry. I won't. You're watching the building. You figured out where I'd be from the pictures. That's very good, Mikey G. You're everything I thought you'd be and more.”

“Oh, god! Do your lips not get chapped from all the ass-kissing?” Maria says, sick and tired of the constant comments that she makes to Michael.

“Sit down. So you're a skin, like Whitaker.” Michael asked.

“How'd you get on to Whitaker?”Courtney is shocked that they knew about Whitaker.

“We're asking the questions here, ok? Now, why are you in Roswell? Where's the rest of your evil army? And most of all, why are you obsessed with my good-looking, if badly groomed boyfriend?”

“Thanks Maria.” Michael smirkly said.

“You’re welcome Spaceboy.” She smiled back.

“I'm not obsessed with him, ok? I follow him in the...political sense. We're not with the other skins. We're renegades who believe that if you were in charge instead of Max in the first place, that none of this would have ever happened.”

“What are you talking about? In charge of what?” Michael sounded confused.

“Our planet, Michael. You don't remember any of this, do you?”

“Suppose you tell me.” Interested in what she had to say.

“Yeah, the short version, please.” Maria said as she couldn’t stand another long story.

“The short version...is that our planet was on the brink of a golden age, and then it all fell apart. You were the one who could have united our planet, pulled together the warring factions, brought peace. But you weren't on the throne.”

“Max.”

“You wouldn't betray him. That loyalty cost your lives and those of everyone you loved. Please, just don't let history repeat itself. You're the one we need. You're our leader, our salvation.”

“Michael, if you can hear me now over the sound of your rapidly inflating ego, could you please tell me that you do not believe what this...this Michael-worshipper here has to say?” Maria said yelling in his ear so he could get the message.

“No...no...no way. No, this is just part of your plan to divide and conquer.”

“I knew you weren't ready to hear this.”

“What's in Copper Summit, Arizona?” Michael asked.

“Copper Summit's just some old tourist trap.” Courtney lied.

“What's there?”

“I'd stay away from there.”

“Why?” Maria asked.

“Let's just say there aren't any Michael-worshippers in Copper Summit.” Courtney explained.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Back at The Crawfords, Tess was looking around the living room of old photographs of the Congresswoman and her thoughts drifted to the night she was captured. She still has nightmares of what happened that night. If Isabel hadn’t found her, who knows what would have happened.

She didn’t realize that Mrs. Crawford entered the room.

“Penny for your thoughts.” Mrs. Crawford replied.

Tess was startled as she dropped the portrait, luckily not breaking it.

“Oh, Mrs. Crawford, I’m sorry, you just startled me.”

“It’s quite alright.”

“You must have been very proud of her.”

“Very much, she was a treasure.”

“Tell me about her, what was she like when she was my age.”

“Oh she was wonderful, just wonderful.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Upstairs, Max was in the bathroom getting changed as Liz was unpacking her things and she noticed she wasn’t alone. Nicholas was standing in the doorway.

“Oh, Nicholas, you scared me. Please come in.” Liz offered.

Nicholas started walking in but he stopped.

“I don’t bite.” Liz joked.

“This used to be her room. This is the first time I have been in here since she died.”

“I am so sorry about your sister. She was very special.”

“Thank you. I was going to visit her in Washington next year. We were going to spend 3 whole days at the Air and Space Museum.”

“Did you get a lot of time with her growing up?”

“When she’d visit she’d make time. She was always telling me about life outside Copper Summit, how there’s this whole wide world of possibilities and adventures. She didn’t want me stuck here the rest of my life.”

“I know how that feels.”

“I know you do. She was always telling me stories about this other galaxy. How there’s this war going on like a revolution.”

“True stories?”

“How can they be true?”

“Did she ever mention Zan or Kivar?”

“How do you know about Kivar?”

“Vanessa told me some stories too.”

There was a silent awkwardness between Nicholas and Liz. He felt something about her, something very intriguing. Just then, they were interrupted by Max, who came out of the bathroom.

“Hey.” He said.

“Hey Max.” Liz smiled back.

“I just came to say good night.” Nicholas said.

“Good night Nicholas.” Liz said.

“What was that all about?” Max asked.

“Just some small talk.” Liz replied.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So what have you found out.” A man spoke in a deep voice to the young boy known as Nicholas.

“You were right. It is him.”

“And the girl? Is she the chosen one.”

“Yes my lord.”

“Excellent. We shall proceed in the morning.”

“Yes Kivar.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In the morning, everyone was getting ready for the memorial service. Liz felt very nervous, she didn’t know why. Maybe it’s because they were here undercover to try and find out more about the truth about Whitaker’s staged death.

“Liz?” Max knocked on the bathroom to check on her. “You almost ready?”

“Max, I’m still drying my hair. I’ll meet you at the service.”

“Okay sweetheart. I’ll see you in a bit.”

“Okay.”

Max left as Liz finished getting ready for the service. She was all ready and was walking out of the bathroom when a bright flash hit her.

A man standing over Liz’s unconscious body was laughing softly.

So you are the king’s chosen one. He certainly chose well, too bad for you.” Kivar laughed evily.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

At the memorial service, the gang minus Liz were gathered with the other mourners. The Crawfords came in and Max went to them and asked them if they have seen Liz. They said she was on her way but Max knew something didn’t feel right. He can feel it in their connection that something wasn’t adding up.

The service has begun as Max, Isabel and Tess walked up to Whitaker’s “body” to pay their respects.

“Good looking pile of dust.” Tess whispered.

“This just can’t be possible.” Isabel said.

Isabel reached for Whitaker’s hand and pushed her fingers into it and created a hole. This body was a fake. She covered it up with the flowers to hide the evidence that they knew this body was not Whitaker’s.

Max looked up at the man giving the service and noticed his skin was peeling. It was a trap. Max turned along with Isabel and Tess.

“Come on, let’s find Liz and get out of here.” Max whispered as they made their way to the door.

“Ummm, not so fast Max.” A man said.

The man slammed the doors shut with his powers. Max turned and was shocked of what he saw. The man from Liz’s vision. Kivar.

“Kivar.” He said.

“Yes, Zan, its me in the flesh. Oh and I have something you might be interested in.”

Kivar snapped his fingers as two of his men slowly brought out someone that Max never thought he would see captured in the hands of his worst enemy. The men brought her out with bruises on her face and arms. His one true love, Liz Parker

“Liz.” Max whispered.

What was Max going to do?

Part 8

She was afraid. She was scared. And she was in a lot of pain. She’s never felt pain like that before. Tortured. Beaten. Raped of her thoughts. Her most cherished thoughts. Her thoughts of Max. Max. She opened her eyes and there he stood. She could see the fear of both of them in his eyes. She turned and there stood the man from her visions. Kivar. She was being held by two of his men, against her will.

“Let her go Kivar.” Max demanded.

“Oh, but I wouldn’t dream of it Max. She’s just so cute.” Kivar evily said pinching Liz’s cheek.

“If you ever lay a hand on her again, so help me.” Max said filled with anger, raised his hand and blasted Kivar. It made him pull back a little, but not much. Kivar then transferred that blast back to him, Isabel and Tess.

“What do you want Kivar?” Max said as he was trying to stand up from the pain he received.

“Well, that’s an easy questions Max. I want the granolith.”

“The what?”

“The granolith. We learned recently that you have it. It holds great power that is very important to me.”

“so, why did you capture Liz?”

“Well, I had to be sure. You see, Liz knows what its capable of but she’s never seen it. And I got to tell you Max she is very fond of you. I almost feel sorry for her.”

“Then let her go.”

“Not yet, not until you take me to the Granolith.”

“And if I refuse?”

“Then…” Kivar used his powers to uncover a portal. “she’ll come back to Antar with me and sit by my side as my queen.”

Just then, something powerful happened. Something awakened within Liz. Her captors were turned to dust and she raised her hand towards Kivar and green was showing through her hands like electricity as she blasted Kivar into the portal.

“If you ever come near me or my family again, I will kill you.” Liz said as she blasted Kivar into the portal back to Antar.

Kivar then disappeared along with the portal. Liz then turned and looked at Max. Suddenly, she collapsed to the ground. Max ran to her side and took her in his arms. Cupping her face with his hand, he turned to Isabel and Tess.

“Isabel, Tess, get Kyle and Alex and get the cars. Now!” Max said.

“Liz. Liz. Can you hear me?” Max whispered, holding her hand for an answer, anything telling him that she was okay.

Suddenly, he felt her fingers move in his head.

“Max.” Liz softly whispered with her eyes still closed. She didn’t need to open them to know he was near. She could always sense him near by.

“Sshh. It’s okay now, you’re alright.” Max whispered back hugging her close.

“Wh.. what happened?” Liz said weakly trying to comprehend what just happened.

“Shh, don’t talk, save your strength.” He whispered back and kissed her forehead.

He carried her in his arms and walked her to the car.

“Liz, just hang on, play. Just stay with me.” He whispered, so scared for her. He had to heal her wounds, he just regretted not being to heal her mental wounds as well. The only way he would really her was to be there for her, love her and cherish her.

She wrapped her arms around him, lucky to be held by him. She had to say it again without hesitation. “I love you Max.” She whispered. “I love you so much.”

“I love you too baby. I will always love you. Just hang on to me, I got to get you someplace safe so I can heal you.”

Max carried her outside to the streets of Copper Summit to the two cehicles that they drove to get here. They never expected what a journey and discovery like this.

Max saw Isabel, Tess, Alex and Kyle waiting by the Jeep and SUV. Alex came towards Max, concerned fro Liz. She looked so fragile in Max’s arms and her bruises on her arms were quickly noticeable.

“Max, what happened to her? We tried to find her, but she was nowhere to be found.” Alex said with a frantic tone.

“Kivar kidnapped her.”

“Oh my god, is she going to be okay?” Kyle asked.

“She will be.” He said as he turned to his sister. “Isabel, can you open the back door for the SUV, I have to heal her.”

“Got it Max.” Isabel opened the door as her, Kyle, Tess and Alex awaited while Max tried to heal Liz.

Max settled Liz in the back seat of the SUV. He cupped her cheek and whispered those words to her the first time he did this. “Liz, look at me, you have to look at me.”

Her eyes opened as he began scanning her body for various wounds on her physically but the connection opened and he can feel her wounds mentally.

Liz coming out of the bathroom and being hit by a white light.

Kivar standing over her unconscious body.

Liz being dragged to an empty room by Kivar’s men and tied to a chair.

Kivar pounding her with questions

“Tell me what you know Liz.” Kivar demanded.

“Never.” Liz replied.

Kivar slapped her on her face.

“Alright then.” Kivar took his hand and placed it on Liz’s head.

Her most private thoughts were being revealed to her love’s worst enemy. She was being raped by her most private thoughts.

Her thoughts of Max.

From the day he healed her.

To the night they first kissed.

To the night they declared their love for each other

The night she had a visitor

That visitor told her about how he got here and what great powers the granolith possesses.

She never felt so violated in all her life.

“Now Liz, tell me where it is.”

“I don’t know.” Liz started to cry, she felt like she failed Max, but there was no way she could control her thoughts.

“Alright.” Kivar slammed his power into her as she slipped back into unconsciousness.

Their eyes found each other again. He checked to make sure she was completely healed. Her physical wounds were gone, but her mental wounds would always be there. He hugged her tightly, needing to feel her closely. He hated himself for what happened to her, he never should have left her alone.

“I’m so sorry Liz, god, I’m so sorry.” Max sobbly said, trying to hide his tears.

She lifted her hand and shed his tears away.

“Max, don’t be. You didn’t know, how could you?”

“But, I…” Liz quieted him with her thumb on his lips.

“Don’t. Don’t blame yourself.” Liz whispered.

“I can’t help it. I just.”

“I know, you worry about me and I love you for it.” She softly kissed his lips.

“Come on, everyone was so worried about you.”

Max held on to Liz carrying her out of the car, even though she was healed she was still a little weak because of her new found powers.

Isabel came towards Liz first and hugged her. “Liz, are you okay?”

“Yes, Isabel I’m fine.”

“What happened?” Kyle asked.

“Kivar kidnapped me and he tried to get the location of the granolith from me. But since I didn’t know where it was it didn’t help him much.”

“But what about when you blasted him into that portal?” Tess asked confused.

“I don’t know, I guess it’s the fact that alien traits are starting to surface in me after Max healed me last year.”

“Well, I am just glad your okay now.” Alex said as he came to her for a hug.

“Thanks Alex.”

“Well, we should start heading home. Are you guys all taking the SUV again?” Max asked.

“Its fine with me.” Isabel said as Kyle, Alex and Tess nodded along.

“Alright, lets get going.” Max said as he helped Liz to the jeep.

He came over to her side of the jeep, opened the door like a gentlemen and lifted her into the vehicle. He quickly went to the driver’s side not wanting to be away from her too long. He came in, started the jeep, and put his arm around Liz, holding her close to him.

“How are you feeling?”

“Better, thanks to you.” Liz said as she gave him a soft kiss.

“I’m glad. Why don’t you sleep, we got a long trip home.” Max whispered to her.

“Okay, I think I will, I am pretty tired.”

Liz drifted off to sleep as their journey back to Roswell went on. They didn’t realize what a change in their lives would have happened on this trip, but it did. They were driving towards a new future in their lives.
