Summary: Post Sexual Healing. Everything that happened after that has pretty much gone in the trash, but I might dig in it once and awhile for something. Anyway its 2005 and the gang have all grown up and are living normal lives well what you can call normal being hybrids that is. They have no idea that there is a fourth alien and they never did find the mysterious Nacedo. What happens when destiny comes a calling? Also what about the FBI and Sheriff Valenti?
AN: Okay this whole fic is all Mary’s idea and I’m just writing it. LOL Alright soul sister of mine I hope I do your idea some justice and um yeah you guys are going to need the Kleenex for this one.

Also quick thanks to cardinalgirl42 for letting me bug her for a minute.

Chapter One
Copper Summit, Arizona 2005
The crowd looked on in a mixture of excitement and fear as they watched the interrogation before them. A boy with dark hair and dark eyes looked up in disgust at the man before him. Raising his hand he slapped him across the face causing the man to fall down. “It’s been almost sixty years since we’d crashed on this forsaken backwater of a planet and we’re still no closer to finding the Royal three. You made a deal with Khivar to turn over the Royal three and deliver to him the heir, but you haven’t done either. You’re so fucking incompetent that you can’t even find them at all.”
The man stayed on the ground and looked at the boy with hate smothering in his eyes and replied, “I brought you the other set and the queen. What more do you want? Also I’m not the only one that’s having a hard time finding them. You sent out a group of scouts to find them and they had no better luck then I did.”
“What more do I want? I want to get off this planet and I can’t do that until we have the real Royal four. The other set you brought me were faulty and their Zan didn’t even have the seal on him. Not to mention none of them know where the granolith is at and we can’t leave until we have the granolith. I’m sick of your excuses and you have no more information for me.” With that he raised a glowing hand towards the man and the man shook his head and said, “Nicholas don’t do this. I can still be useful to you.”
“You’re wasting your breath and my air,” Nicholas told him before he sent out a blast. The man let out a scream as the blast hit him and the crowd watched as he slowly started turning into ash. Turning towards the crowd Nicholas said, “Let that be a lesson to all of you. Now where’s the little queen at?” Everyone quickly moved as an answer and left a short blonde standing alone to face Nicholas. He circled the young woman and took in her long blonde hair and petite figure. Coming back to face her he looked directly at the ice blue eyes that were staring back at him and said, “give me one good reason why I shouldn’t kill you.”
She stared at him without blinking and said coldly, “if you kill me you’ll have no one left to help you. You’ve already killed the other set and you just finished Nacedo off. If you kill me you won’t be able to get a royal heir when you find the others. Only I and my Zan will be able to produce a royal heir. Plus I have an idea as to where the others may be at.”
He raised an eyebrow at this new piece of information. “You know where the others are at? How come Nacedo didn’t have this piece of information, and why am I hearing about it so late? How do I know that this isn’t some kind of plan to keep me from killing you? I mean how stupid do you think I am Tess?”
Saying nothing she just looked at him while waiting to see what he would do next. She had just seen her protector killed and she had no plans to join him in the afterlife this soon. Her plan just had to work otherwise Nicholas would kill her just as quickly as he had killed Nacedo. Hearing her name called she came out her thoughts and looked at him questioningly.
“So Tess what’s your idea, and where do you think the others are at?”
“I believe that they’re in Roswell, New Mexico,” she told him.
“Roswell? The only aliens in that place are the town nuts and the idiots that believe Star Trek is real. Beam me up Scotty and all that. What makes you think that they’re there,” he asked her.
“I ran across some information when I was at work the other day. Apparently the town sheriff a few years back had reported that a local waitress had been shot and that witnesses claimed that she had been miraculous healed by some boy.”
“Hmm that’s very interesting. Did Agent Pierce see this piece of information?”
“I found the file in his desk and it seems that over the past five years he has been steadily collecting information about not only the waitress and the guy that healed her, but four other people as well.”
“Why the hell didn’t I know anything about this? What has my dear sister been up to in Washington? She’s supposed to be sending any information that she finds back here. Hmm I’ll figure that out later, but I guess it’s a good thing I sent you to work for the Special Unit otherwise we would be in the dark.”
She wisely refrained from pointing out that the Congresswoman was so busy getting her freak on with the Special Agent that she really wasn’t looking for rest of the Royal Four. ‘Oh well her mistake will be my way out of here and away from Nicholas. There’s no way in hell I’m going back to Antar to let Khivar rule when I can do that myself. I just have to find the others and make them see things my way. If they don’t want to cooperate well then they’re going have a problem.’
“So I’m assuming you have a plan since you didn’t volunteer any of this information up when I was torturing Nacedo. Poor Nacedo he raised you and here you let him die. I guess he wasn’t the great father figure that he thought himself to be,” he told her with a smirk.
“Nacedo would have done the same if the situation was reverse. Its survivor of the fittest and that’s what he always taught me,” she said coldly.
He laughed evilly and replied, “I guess you learn that lesson rather well, but make no mistake if you betray me I will find out and there’s no one to save you from me. Now tell me about this plan of yours since I’m sure you won’t disappoint me by not having one.”
“My plan is simple and because of that it will work. I’ll just go to Roswell and let them know who I am. I’ll show them the Destiny Book and they’ll believe whatever I’ll tell them. They’ve more than likely been raised by humans so they’ll have a conscious, and that’s their weakness. I’ll tell them that a whole planet of people are waiting for them to save them and that only they can do so. They’ll feel so guilty that they’ll eagerly follow me back here to go save home and their people.”
“Why Tess I do believe you’ve come up with a sound plan. That’s remarkable for you and if you succeed then not only will Khivar reward you lavishly so will I,” he leered at her.
Barely keeping the disgust off her face she smiled at him sweetly. ‘As soon as I find the others and get them under my control I’m killing Tiny Tim here.’ “So do you find my plan okay?”
“It’s an excellent plan and something I might have come up with myself if I had known about that file. You may go ahead and leave for Roswell today.”
She nodded at him and turned to leave only to stop at him saying, “Take Peter here with you.”
Quickly turning back to him she said, “I really don’t need a babysitter to do this job. I can bring the other three back myself without any help.”
“Well my dear you either go with Peter or you don’t go at all. You see while you’ve proven yourself over the years I still can’t quite get over the feeling that you might betray me if I’m not careful. So what’s it going to be? Do you go with Peter or do you stay here?” He looked at her carefully to see what her reaction to his statement would be.
“Fine I’ll take Peter with me if you like, but I’m a little hurt that you don’t trust me,” she told him with a pout.
Satisfied that he wouldn’t have to kill her yet he waved her off and nodded to the tall blonde that had moved to stand next to her. “Just make sure that you report in what you find as soon as you get there, and remember that I’m always one step ahead of you so don’t try to pull any tricks.”
“Of course Nicholas I wouldn’t dream of doing anything like that. I’ll report back to you as soon as I arrive in Roswell.” With that she moved through the crowd while the tall blonde guy followed behind her. Once out of the building she headed towards a dark blue SUV and turned to the tall blonde guy that had been following her. Scrunching her forehead she told him, “You will only report back what I command you too. If you see anything you will tell me first and then only may you tell Nicholas.” The guy looked at her in a daze and blinked at her after a few minutes. Satisfied that Peter was firmly under her control she told him, “well I guess we better swing by our houses and get some stuff because who knows how long we’re going to be there.”
He nodded and got in the passenger side while trying to figure out what he had missed. Nicholas had warned him that she could be dangerous, but looking at her he seriously doubted that she could hurt a fly. Getting in the car she started it up and took a quick peek in Peter’s mind and smirked to herself, ‘the fool believes that because I’m a woman that I’m harmless. What an idiot, but he’ll be useful in my plans.’ Pulling out of his mind she put the car in drive and started heading towards her home to get her stuff.

Roswell, New Mexico Crashdown
As the bell rang in the café signaling that someone was entering the older man behind the counter looked up and was delighted at what he saw. Coming in was a young man with dark hair that curl to his nape who looked to be in his early twenties. He was smiling down at the smaller woman in front of him who had dark hair as well that was cut in layers. She was petite and short whereas he was tall and lean. The two were so wrapped up in each other as the older man looked at them with a smile. Moving from around the counter he stopped in front of the couple. The two stopped and the woman squealed in delighted and ran into his open arms. “Lizzie, what are you guys doing here? Shouldn’t you be in Boston studying for finals or something,” he asked her. She laughed and said, “Dad, I got to take finals early and Max got exempted from most of his.”
“Yeah well I’m not the only one who got exempted from a few of them,” Max reminded her with a smile. She punched him lightly in the arm and said, “Oh hush. I’m trying to be modest here and you’re not letting me.” Taking the hand that she punched him with he brought it to his mouth for a gentle kiss and winked at her. She stared up at him and smiled seductively. His breath caught at her look and he absently wondered to himself if there was time to drag her off somewhere. The older man coughed loudly interrupting them and the two looked back at him while trying not to blush.
“You two still act like you’re on your honeymoon,” Mr. Parker told them.
“Well we’ve only been married for two years so that’s technically still the honeymoon period,” Liz told him.
The two had gotten married a year after they graduated from high school and although their parents worried about them getting married so young the two had proven that they had what it took to make a good lasting marriage. Mr. Parker looked at the two glad that they had proven them wrong. “So what brings the two of you back home? I mean not that I’m complaining or anything,” he told them.
“As I’m now seven months pregnant it’s getting close for my time to delivery I thought it would be best to come home and be surrounded by family,” she told her dad.
Mr. Parker blinked and took in the small bungle where his grandson or granddaughter now resided. Sometimes he kept forgetting that his son-in-law was from out of this world and reminders like this kept shocking him time and time again. ‘Then again nothing could be as bad as my reaction the first time the kids had sat me down to tell about Max’s otherworldly origin,’ he thought humorously to himself. Shaking his head he said, “Well that’s great honey. Shouldn’t you be resting or something instead of standing on your feet?” He took his daughter’s elbow and led her to the backroom to sit down. She sat down and smiled at her father and told him, “Well the baby will be here in a few weeks. It’s going to be a girl and we still don’t have a name picked out.”
Max sat down next to her and wrapped his around her. “Hey I told you we should name her Liz since I’m sure she’s going to have your eyes and hair.”
“Max we’re not naming her Liz. My name is Liz and she should have her own name and identity. I mean if we have a son are you going to want to name him Max Jr.” Not hearing anything she saw that her father had left and that Max was just staring at her with a smile on his face. “Why are you staring at me? Do I have something on my nose or something,” she asked him.
“Nope I just like looking at you. I mean it’s truly amazing it is.”
“What’s amazing and where did my dad go?”
“Your dad said he was going to go get your mother and before you asked you missed him saying it because you were rambling on quite cutely if I may say so. Also I think it’s amazing that we’re married and in a few weeks we’re going to have a baby. If anyone would have told that this would have happened a few years ago I would have laughed. I just thank whatever being that is out there gave me these powers so I could save you that day.”
She sniffed and threw herself at him. Cuddling up on his lap she sniffed some more and mumbled in his neck where her mouth currently rested. The two sat peacefully with him running his fingers gently through her hair and her wrapped around him. Suddenly the door opened and four young adults rushed into the back room. Looking up the two smiled at the sight before them and Liz moved to stand up to greet them. Max picked her up and sat her on the other side of the couch and he stood up. Reaching back down he helped her stand up. She had barely been standing for a second before one of the girls launched herself at her. The two hugged and soon they were joined by another girl. The three guys looked on with a smile while making conversations. It had been awhile since their little gang had been together as each couple had gone their separate way, but every holiday and break they made sure to get back home to Roswell to hang out. This time they were all back to see one of their own give birth. They were all excited, nervous, and curious as this was the first baby to be born in their little group. They had become friends because of a secret, but over the months and years the bond between the six had grown strong and now they were a family that would protect each other no matter the cost. As the six talked among themselves and caught up with what was going on they never knew that this was the last time that they would be together so peacefully and happy. Destiny had started looking for them and she was coming whether they wanted her to or not.
Anyway here's the new part and always thanks for the feedback. Keeping it coming people.
