1990~ Roswell Desert

In the dark cave a movement was seen, small hands broke through the protective layer of the pod. A girl about six years old emerges from the pod and desperately searching for someone who should have been there. When she saw no one she decided to walk out of the cave. She walked far when suddenly she saw the light of an oncoming vehicle

Pierce just got married to his high-school sweetheart and they have been trying for a family. Emily sat next to him in the car with tears in her eyes. She just heard the news from her home physician she won’t be able to conceive and it is breaking her heart that she won’t be able to give her husband a child he greatly deserved. As they drove in the direction of Roswell she tried not to think about the pain they have to endure. Suddenly she saw her, a little girl about six, naked and alone on the road. She screamed for her husband to stop their car and with only the tenderness of a mother she guided the child to the car. This is how the girl became Joanne Pierce. Sadly Emily Pierce died three years later of a rare cancer and Joanne had to become stronger for her and her father’s sake.

November 2000
Washington D.C
Joanne knew that since she was thirteen that she wasn’t normal. It was in class that she saw the anomalies in her blood and somehow she knew that she had to keep it quite. Two days from now she’ll be turning sixteen and she doesn’t even know if her father will be at her birthday. Since the death of her mother he became distant and cold. The school bell rang to announce the last period of the day and with anticipation she walked to the class. It was her favorite class; English Lit is where she could be herself without any limits. As she sat down next to Jessica she saw the teacher looking at her with interest. She shifted her gaze and saw it; it was a poem that she threw away that very morning,
“Class, before we start I want Joanne to come to the front of the class and read something for us”
Slowly she stood up and walked to the front before she read it she looked to the teacher and asked,
“Miss, why do you want me to read it. I threw it away this morning?”
“Joanne you are talented and I want the others to see how talented you are”
After a heavy discussion Joanne started to read:
Winter of a Galaxy
Darkness came and took away the emotion
What planet would carry the notion?
For months nothing was taken away
Yet now no one wanted to stay

Winter of a galaxy is the answer
Answer to those questions you never wanted to ask
Tears formed with every blow
Laughter was taken away

The stars understood the price
The planets turned their hearts away
Struggling to survive in the coldness
When you know that you are the only survivor

Hope for a better dream
Hope for the golden seam
They can’t take that away
You carry it in your heart

After Joanne read the poem she could feel the silence in the class. She, then, knew what the teacher meant when she said that Joanne was talented. She wrote this poem when she had a vision of her true blood siblings. In this vision she saw five squares interlocking. She wanted to tell her father about this, but he was too absorbed with his own life in the FBI that she stopped speaking to him. Her only confidant in the FBI was Mulder, but in a way she kept quite about some things in her life. Like the whole blood anomaly she had. As she heard a loud shriek she knew that it was the end of the school day for her and with that she left the class
~*~

FBI HEAD QUARTERS

Skinner looked at the two agents sitting in front of him and pulled a file out from a pile. He, then gave it to Mulder and said,
“You know this agent. He disappeared a few weeks ago from duty. I want you to try to locate him”
“What was his case?” Mulder asked
“I know that I will regret from telling you this, but a few years ago we heard about extraterrestrial life on Earth. We created a special group inside the FBI and this agent was a leader. Agent Pierce was the best in this field and about a year ago we gave him a case to go to Roswell”
“Wow, hold on… you tell me that Roswell is more than a tourist trap?” Scully exclaimed
“Yes, but one thing I want to tell you. Don’t tell Joanne that her father is missing”
“I’ll go to Roswell and locate Pierce” Mulder said and with that they left the office
Skinner sat down by his desk and flipped through the files again.

Scully drove towards the high school where Joanne was. She didn’t know what she would say to the young girl all that she knew was that Joanne was trying to be close to her father. Even though it was a lost case, Pierce was unapproachable emotionally. She heard the bell ring and waited for the girl as she saw Joanne exit the building she walked towards her and said,
“Joanne I need to tell you something”
“What is it?” Joanne asked panicking
“I need to tell you that your father disappeared from duty”
“Don’t…don’t tell me that!” she cried
Scully knew that she made a mistake by telling a fragile mind about her only family. She walked closer to Joanne and tried to comfort her, but then she saw that Joanne was avoiding contact. It was then that she knew that Joanne needed to be alone for a while. She climbed back into her car and drove away.

Joanne walked home in a daze and went to her room. As she sat on her bed she knew that she had to find her father. She packed her suitcase and walked to her father’s room. With a rapid pull of the closet door a box fell out of it. She saw her name on the lid and opened it. What she saw shocked her; it was an oval shaped orb with a strange marking on it. As she lifted it out of the box a vision crossed her mind’s eye. In the vision she saw a cave with five pods and a V-shape in the sky. Again the vision shifted and she saw the name Town of Roswell. With a jolt she woke from the vision, but without putting the orb back she saw a note inside. Slowly she took the letter and read.
Dear Joanne
This is the only evidence from your past. Go to Roswell and try to find your family
Your Mother

The letters on the paper started to blur as the tears fell. It was the first letter from her mother, how is it that she never knew what to do about her origin? Suddenly all came together, she had a brother and sister somewhere in Roswell. She stood in her father’s room and looked around. Suddenly she noticed a file on the desk and slowly she walked towards the file. It was then that she saw the photos of eight teenagers. Slowly she browsed through the files and read the information that her father gathered
“Maxwell Evans and Isabel Evans” she muttered to herself.
It was the first images of her brother and sister. Joanne ran to her room and with urgency she locked everything and walked towards the driveway. As she pulled out of her driveway she took one more look at her house and thought that maybe this would be the last time she would see her old life. When she locates her family in Roswell she might have a new life waiting for her. Hopefully they would accept her for who she was.

~*~
ROSWELL

Mulder looked around the town with interest. So many tourists in this small town, a town with a history of being the alien capitol of the world. He drove towards the UFO Centre, it was the place he wanted to visit since he started working in the X-Files. As he browsed through the exhibition he noticed a young man sorting through the files. He walked towards him and asked,
“Excuse me, do you know where I could find the sheriff?”
Max looked at the man in front of him and when he saw the id Fox Mulder: Special Agent, he turned cold. It is the third FBI agent he had the pleasure of meeting.
“Well, the police station is next to the Crashdown Café. You can’t miss it”
“Thank you…um?”
“Max Evans”
Mulder left the UFO Centre and walked towards the police station

Max took the phone and tried to locate Sheriff Valenti, but there was no answer. He just hoped that this agent wasn’t trying to locate Pierce.
~*~
CRASHDOWN CAFÉ
It was a long and tiring drive for Joanne as she entered the restaurant. She felt so out of place in this town, but it was the only place where she could find her brother and sister. She sat in a booth waiting for someone to take her order
“Good afternoon. My name is Courtney, I’ll be your waitress”
“Good afternoon” Joanne replied and said,
“I’ll have an alien hunter with a galaxy shake. Oh, by the way do you have a pen for me?”
Courtney looked at Joanne and was about to walk away, she didn’t here that Joanne was asking for a pen. Maria looked at the girl still waiting for Courtney to answer her. She looked at the bag next to Joanne and noticed,
“Oh, No!” she thought, “An orb”,
Then she turned towards Courtney and said,
“Courtney! I’m taking this one! You can take a break if you want even flirt with Michael, but let me take this one”
She wasn’t serious about the whole Michael- thing, but she needed to know more about the orb and the girl carrying it,
“I’ve got a pen. Wait” she took her pen and handed it to Joanne. At the same time she accidentally dropped it,
“Sorry” Maria bend down to retrieve it and touched the orb trying to pick up the pen up
FLASH
She could see the girl in the Pod chamber, she looked around for someone, but all the other pods are empty and she was alone
END of FLASH

Maria stood up,
“Here is the pen”
Joanne looked at Maria as she eyed the orb, for a while she didn’t want to reveal herself to anyone, but it was the only way. She let Maria get a peak into her mind and some of the things she experienced,
“Thank you…for the pen”
Maria turned around and was about to walk away when Joanne said,
“By the way. My name is Joanne Pierce. I need to ask you something”
Maria looked shocked as she mind shouted,
“Pierce!” that name was reminding her of something. ‘Pierce’ the guy who wanted to kill aliens! She had to tell Michael, but she had to find out more. She couldn’t go talking to the girl like,
“Yeah. You’re an alien. My friends too!” she couldn’t do that to her friends like Max would say,
“It’s too dangerous”
Maria looked again at Joanne and asked,
“What kind of questions and by the way Welcome! I’m Maria DeLuca!”
Joanne looked at Maria and said,
“You looked shocked when you heard my last name being Pierce. It you need to know an FBI agent adopted me by that surname, but I don’t know where he is. I lost contact with him a few months ago and in a way I came to look for him. I also am trying to locate my older brother and sister”
She paused then said,
“…my real brother and sister. The only information I have is that they are here in Roswell”
Maria kept quite while her mind shouted,
“I know where Pierce is. 10 feet under us.'” thought Maria who knew he had been killed, by Michael. She opened her mouth again and said,
"Oh.. I'm sorry for you and BTW, I don't know who Pierce is. I was thinking of something else." Maria didn't want to show Joanne that she knew him,
"Well, if you want help to find you brother and sister, I'll be glad to help you!"
"Thank you. Here is the last know picture I have of them" with that Joanne gave a picture that Pierce had of Isabel and Max to Maria.
Maria froze. “Isabel and Max”. Which probably meant that Michael was there too. What was this comedy all about? Could she be an alien? Or trying to continue what Pierce hadn't done? "I'll do my best. Well I got to go back to work! See you at school!"
Maria left and went over Isabel. She didn’t let her time to talk and took her in backdoor. Michael was still there too,
"I need to talk to you too. Where's Max?" Michael's phone was ringing. Maria had it on her so she picked up. It was Max. "Max! Take your ass here! It's urgent! No question! Fast and come here by back doors. Nobody must see you." Before she placed the phone down she said this to Max,
"I think there's another alien."

Max placed his phone back into his pocket and had a shocked look onto his face, what is it about a Sixth alien? He had to ask Tess about this, but where is she when she is needed? Maybe she is with Nasedo trying to remember more of their past. He walked out of the house and saw Isabel sitting on the porch reading. It was one of the strangest sights he ever saw. Isabel with a book, well maybe there was hope for them yet. Isabel looked up as she saw Max eyeing her. She smiled and said,
“Don’t be shocked by this Max. I know that it is strange, but somehow I felt the need for something else”
“Oh, don’t worry I won’t tell Maria or the others about this. You know how Maria can tease, and if she finds this out”
“Where are you going in such a hurry?” Isabel asked
“I need to speak to Tess and Nasedo about something. Do you know where they are?”
“The last thing I heard was that they are in the pod chamber”
“Thanks” Max said and ran to the Jeep

As he drove to the desert, he tried to picture this new alien even though it was something he can’t do. He stopped and ran towards the entrance of the cave. As he entered it he heard Nasedo talking to Tess,
“You know what you must do”
“Yes, I do, but I am not going to do it. I love him and if it is up to me I would tell him all about your deal with him”
“You won’t dare do it” Nasedo replied with anger in his voice
“Try me” Tess replied
Max made himself known to the two and said,
“I think you guys should stop arguing about what you are. We have company”
“What kind?” Tess asked
“Well, I got a phone call earlier informing me that there is another alien here in Roswell. Do you anything about this?” Max asked Nasedo
There was silence for a while then he said,
“I suspected it, but there is no evidence of it”
As they walked along the pods Max came to a sudden halt as he saw the fifth pod

He turned around and looked at the two,
“Do you know anything about this?” he asked Nasedo
Nasedo walked towards the pod and examined it, it was strange to see it, but he somehow knew what it was. He then turned and looked at Max and said,
“The day I came to get you guys you were gone and the only one there was Tess, well, somehow I felt like there was another alien in the chamber. I never stayed long to investigate it, because I had to get away with Tess before the military came. I never came back to this place until the day you activated the communicators. Now that you are together I know for a fact that somehow there might be more of you than I expected. I need to get in contact with the other guardian to ask him if he knew anything about this” with that Nasedo left the pod chamber, but before he did he looked at Tess and said,
“Just you think about what we talked about”

Max turned to his love and asked,
“What was all that about?”
“I don’t know…let us get out of here and go see what Maria is babbling about”
“Fine by me” Max replied and the two of them left the cave.

~*~
The CrashDown Café
Maria paced in the kitchen not knowing how to break this news to her friends. She knew for a fact that Liz would be furious if she didn’t know first hand about this development, but what was she to do. Joanne came to her and asked her for help. It is not as if she asked to be involved in this mess. Suddenly the back door opened and in came Max, Isabel, Tess and Michael who was already waiting there without her knowing it. She turned to the group and said,
“I think you guys better sit down, because what I am about to say to you may came as a shock to you”
“Just come to the point” Michael exclaimed annoyed
“Space Boy what is your problem!” Maria hissed
“You guys there are no need to fight over petty things. Maria what did you mean when you said that there is a sixth alien is Roswell?” Max asked
Isabel turned pale and looked with distress written on her face. Who might this new one be? Was one of the more pressing questions she’d like to ask? She looked again at Maria and asked,
“Please could you tell us more about this being you saw”?
With that Maria began to tell them everything that happened in the past few hours. The only thing that stunned them was when they found out who Joanne’s father was, it was actually Michael that was struck the most, because he killed Pierce and if Joanne was to find out it might ruin their chance of being friends.
“There is one more thing that you might be aware off and that is one of the FBI’s best agents is in Roswell investigating his disappearance and what I heard it seemed that he is one of those Conspiracy Enthusiasts.”
When Maria told them about the whole incident they knew that they had to get into contact with Joanne before Mulder finds out more than what he needed to know. Max turned towards Maria and asked,
”Do you know where to get into contact with this new alien?”
“No, but I think that she will be coming to our high school. I told her that I would try and help her locate her family and her father”
“What are you talking about family,”?
“Oh, I forgot to mention it. When I talked to her she told me that she needed to locate her real brother and sister. She even gave me a photo” with that she handed the photo to Max.
Max looked at the photo and saw him and Isabel staring out of it. It is then that the pod in the pod chamber made sense. The fifth one was for his sister. He looked at Tess and said,
“You better talk to Nasedo and ask him if he knew about my other sister”
Tess looked at Max and nodded, she knew that she had to tell Max about the conversation she had with Nasedo, but if she did it would mean that they would loose a guardian and that she can’t afford. The only thing she could do was tried to locate the second guardian and beg him to help them. She remember to time she and Nasedo traveled the country and it was on one of those excursions that she met Cal. He wasn’t pleased to see them, but he somehow helped them to evade the government and then one day when Nasedo was on the phone he asked Tess to the study and said,
“You must be careful of that man. He is cold and he won’t hesitate to harm you or the others”
“What are you talking about?” she asked
Before Cal to answer her Nasedo came into the study and revealed their new destination to her. It was the day they decided to come to Roswell.

Tess walked to the house she and Nasedo shared and stepped into the living room. She looked at the man she knew for such a long time with such pain written in her face and said to him,
“If you want to know what I decided about that conversation we had in the pod chamber then you must know I am not going to do that to Max and the others. Kivar can go to hell. If he wants to destroy us then he must do it on his own and not try to involve me into that plot. I love Max and I am not going to betray him like what Vilandra did on Antar”
“You are making a mistake if you don’t follow his orders. He can make your life a living hell”
“I don’t care, I found my family and friends and I am not going to loose them. Oh, by the way that extra pod in the pod chamber is that of Max’s baby sister. She’s the sixth alien here in Roswell”
“How do you know that?” Nasedo asked
She told him everything that Maria told her and that the FBI has sent another agent to Roswell to investigate them. She was about to turn around to go to her room when Nasedo said,
“You must be careful that Kivar doesn’t find out about your refusal to help him”
She turned around and shouted,
“Kivar can go and suck a lemon! I am not going to help him, not now not ever!” with that she stormed to her room. She was fuming with anger as she sat next to her desk. She was trying to concentrate on the workload they received in Astronomy, but she couldn’t. All she could think off was that new alien here. She somehow remembered Zan’s youngest sister.

Memory Flash
It was a quiet day in the palace; they just got married and were about to go on their honeymoon when Rúette came into the room crying. Slowly she walked up to girl and asked,
“What is wrong?”
“Ava, I don’t know why I had to get my heart broken every time I fell in love”
“What happened?” she asked
With that Rúette told her that she told Lareck that she loved him and when she did that Lareck told her that he didn’t felt the same towards her,
“I think that I must distant myself from any man and just concentrate on my studies”
“What are you studying?” Ava wanted to know
With an exited heart Rúette told her that she applied to the military and that in a week from that day she’ll be a cadet in her brother’s army. Ava looked at the young woman and shook her head,
“You know that Zan won’t approve if he found out that you joined his army”
“That is just it. I applied with an assumed name. They don’t know me then”
“You know that when General Rath sees you he would recognize you”
Rúette looked at Ava and with a shaken voice asked,
“Please don’t tell Zan. He won’t understand this?”
“I won’t I think that you must be the one to tell him”
Rúette walked over to Ava and gave her a hug. With that Ava was left alone in the room
End of Memory Flash

Tess shook her head when she remembered that, she could also remember that the young woman did get into the army and served her brother faithfully. In the beginning Zan was angry when he heard that his younger sister was severing and not enjoying life at all. But soon he made peace with that and kept the secret that she was his sister.


~*~
HOTEL ROOM
Joanne sat in her room looking at the orb she had in her possession. She knew that sooner or later she would have to face Mulder and tell him about her origins, but as soon as she does that she might loose her freedom and even compromise that of her family. She knew that he was staying in the same hotel as what she is. She saw him earlier that afternoon talking on his cell-phone. Somehow she knew that he was talking to Scully, it was as if he couldn’t function without her. And maybe it is a good thing that he loved her.

She placed the orb next to her bed and lied on her bed, she had to try and make contact with her bother and sister. She knew for a fact that she didn’t want to be separated from them again. It has been such a long time since she had hope and now that she found it she doesn’t want to loose it due to the fact that the FBI is still after aliens.

She closed her eyes and tried to sleep, it was then that she saw the cave.
Joanne walked in the desert with not much to do, she knew for a fact that Mulder had been looking into the disappearance of her father and she had to distract him from finding out about her and her family. Suddenly she saw the rock formation and walked up to it. It was there that she found the handprint on the outside. With anticipation she placed her hand on the mechanism and gently pushed her hand forward. With a soft ‘hiss’ the rock opened up and revealed the cave….

With a rapid movement Joanne woke from her sleep and sat up. What kind of dream did she just have? What is this cave that she kept seeing in her minds eye. She climbed out of the bed and pulled on her clothes, it was time for her to find out what had happened to her. Slowly she opened the door and stepped into the night air, the first thing she did was to look around, just to make sure that Mulder wasn’t following her. Luckily, he was still in his room sleeping, so she could investigate this dream she just had. Joanne walked into the peaceful town, anticipation running through her heart. She was so eager to find her family that it didn’t matter to what extent she would go. There are a few things that she could remember from her past, not that any of it made any sense at all. She walked into the desert and saw the rock formation she had from her dream and walked towards it. Just as it was in her dream she placed her hand on the rock and it opened. As she stepped inside a shocking scene greeted her.

There were five pods lining the wall and Joanne seemed to know which pod was hers. She walked up to it and ran her hand over its smooth surface. She so wanted to be accepted by the group and now it looks like they will want to talk to her sooner or later. She gave her cell-phone number to Maria telling her that as soon as they wanted to talk she could contact her on this number.

Suddenly she got a feeling about the Granilith, she walked up to the pod, which concealed it and walked into the chamber. She raised her eyes to the artifact and it was as if she started to remember more
Memory Flash
Rúette has been fighting in her brother’s army for about three months when the uprising started. She knew that Kivar was behind it and tried to tell Rath about the danger, but he wasn’t one of those who would listen to her. They just returned from a recon mission when she decided to tell Ava what had happened. She walked into the throne room, but before she could do anything she witnessed Kivar’s henchman driving a dagger into Ava’s heart.
“Nooooo!” she screamed and ran forward
“So, you think you can stop Kivar from taking your brother’s throne?” Nicholas said and with those words he drove the same dagger into her chest, but before she could die she stumbled towards the military room just to see Vilandra’s, Rath and her brother’s lifeless bodies on the floor. She then saw Larek coming around the bend of the corridor and signaled to him
“Rúette, what happened”?
In slow, but painful breaths she told him everything that happened. It was as if he couldn’t belief it, but he knew that Kivar was ruthless.
“Don’t worry, we know what we are going to do now” Lareck said and with those words she died
End of Memory Flash

Joanne woke from the vision and wiped the tears from her eyes, she knew know that she made the right decision to try and locate her family. As she stood next to the Granilith when her phone rang
“Hello Joanne. It’s Maria”
“Oh, hi Maria”
“Um, I want to know if you would be able to come to the CrashDown?”
“Sure”
The phone went dead and she stood there alone in the cave

~*~
CrashDown Café
Maria hung up and looked at the four aliens and said,
“She’s on her way”
“Maria are you sure that she’s not dangerous?” Isabel asked
“Sure. I know for a fact that she’s not like her father”
Tess looked at Max with love in her eyes and said,
“Max, I have to tell you. I can remember your sister from Antar”
“What?”
“It just happened. I was talking to Nasedo about the pod in the chamber when I got the flash. You must know one thing about her she served you well in your army”
“Why would she want to do that?”
“She though that it was the only way for her to do what she wanted to do.” Before Max could answer her, the door opened up and as they looked up they saw the tall girl stepping inside. Joanne looked at the group uncertain and walked up to Maria,
“You said that you wanted to talk”
“Sure, but before we talk. Let me introduce you to the gang” with that she gave her the aliens names (Earth names and Antarian names) to Joanne. She even introduced the humans to her.

As she got introduced to the gang she knew that she was talking to her brother and sister. She pulled out the orb from her knapsack and gave it to Max with these words,
“I believe this is supposed to be with the other two”
“How did you know that?” Max asked
“I…I didn’t. I just thought that it must be that way”
As she handed the orb to Max he knew for a fact that she was his younger sister. She nudged Isabel towards them and said,
“You don’t have to worry. She is your younger sister”
Isabel walked forward and looked deep into Joanne’s eyes, when she didn’t see the hatred in them she knew that there was nothing to fear. Slowly she walked closer and then it happened, Isabel hugged Joanne.
“I never thought that there was anyone else who could tell me why I did what I did”
Joanne pulled herself from Isabel and said,
“I…I’m sorry, but I don’t remember much of our lives on Antar, all I could remember was seeing you die” she said to Tess.
“Could you see who did it?” Max asked
“Yes, it was Nicholas. He drove the dagger into Ava’s heart, then he killed me, but before I died I saw your bodies. Oh, it wasn’t you who betrayed our brother”
“Who was it then?” Isabel asked
“You won’t like it”
“Tell us” Michael demanded hoping that it was Tess, but what he heard even shocked him
“It was one of your protectors. I…I think it was the one who was assigned to you”
“So that is why he wanted me to do that…” Tess said
“What are you talking about!” Max
Tess looked at her lover and said,
“As you know I grew up with Nasedo, well he asked me to make you fall in love with me and then I have to sleep with you and become pregnant. That was because Kivar wanted the heir to the throne and when I refused to do it he threatened me”
Tess looked down and waited to be scolded, but when she felt Max’s arms around her she knew that he didn’t blame her. She looked at him and waited for an answer
“Tess, you don’t have to worry we will never let anything happen to you”
“Thank you Max. You don’t know how much that means to me” she said and gave him a kiss.
“There is just one thing I have to ask”
“What is that?” Max wanted to know
With that Joanne asked them if they knew what had happened to her father, when she looked at them she knew that something was wrong
“Um…I think you better sit down for this” Max replied
As she sat down she waited, it was the longest silence she ever knew
“A few months ago your father came her looking for us, well he captured me and started to do things I can’t even tell you about. Well, Michael here saved my life by killing him. I am sorry, but we didn’t have a choice”
As she heard this news she knew that they acted justifiable, but still it felt painful and tears started to fall from her eyes.
“Oh Crap” she replied
“What?”
“The FBI send an agent here to investigate my dad’s disappearance and if they found out that he is dead they will come for you again”
“There is one way to avoid that”
“How?”
With that they told her that even though Nasedo was a traitor he could still serve his purpose. He could pose as Pierce and divert this agent. The only thing is to try and find an alibi for where he was in that time span.

There were a few minutes of silence when suddenly the door of the CrashDown opened up. Joanne looked up and saw Mulder walk in. She turned pale and said,
“I don’t want to be seen with your guys yet. That is the agent I was telling you about”
“You can leave the back way,” Maria informed her
With a rapid movement she left them and walked out. Joanne decided to walk into the front of the café and try to talk to Mulder. She opened the door and stepped into the café, Mulder looked up and got a shocked expression onto his face he never thought that he would see Joanne Pierce in this town. He stood up and walked to her,
“Joanne what are you doing here?”
“Agent Mulder. I am here on the same mission as what you are. I want to find my father too”
“You know that you can’t do that,” he said
She sat down and looked at the menu, then said
“I know that I can’t do anything, but I want to find my father too”
Maria walked up to their table and with that they gave her their orders. As Maria walked back to the kitchen she looked at the four aliens and asked,
“What are you guys going to do?”
Max turned around and looked at Joanne then he replied,
“The only thing I could do is try and find out more about who she is and what she did on Antar”
“Max I already told you what she did. She fought in your army and she was very loyal”
“What about her personal life?” he wanted to know
Tess sat down and sighed,
“Well, she was like any other teenager. She loved life and she even fell in love with someone”
”Who?”
“Well, she fell in love with Lareck, but like it was that time. He didn’t share the same feelings. That is why she started to concentrate more on her studies than her personal life”
Max sat down and looked over to where Joanne sat with Mulder, and then he said,
“As soon as he leave I want you to call her again. I think it is better if Lareck and she talk”
“I think it is a great idea, but first we need to tell Nasedo that we need him to pose as Pierce so that the FBI can leave. We have to warn him that Joanne was Pierce’s daughter”
“Good, call him”

Tess walked up to the phone and dialed the phone number there was silence then she heard the man on the other side of the line.
“I think you better come to the CrashDown fast. Try to impersonate Pierce.” She listens for a while to the man and then replied,
“There is just one thing I want to tell you” with that she told him about Joanne and who she was on Antar. With that the phone went dead.

Nasedo started to swear when he drove towards the CrashDown, he knew for a fact that Rúette knew who betrayed Zan and his family on Antar. Now to find out that she was here in Roswell interferes with his plans to get the royal family on Antar to die again. He closed his car door and walked into the café, there he saw Joanne sitting with Mulder and walked up to them.
“Dad, where have you been?” Joanne asked shocked
“Agent Pierce, do you know that the entire FBI has been looking for you” Mulder replied.
‘Pierce’ sat down and looked at the two, it was then that he started to give them the alibi he thought off. It was a strange alibi that he gave, but it was the only thing he could think off. Suddenly Joanne’s cell-phone rang and as she spoke on it she looked up and said to the two men,
“I have an appointment with the hair dresser. Oh, Mulder, dad, you guys can go back to Washington. I think I am going to stay in this town. Here no-one is going to find out who my father works for”
With that she left the two men sitting in the booth.

Joanne walked to the UFO Centre where Max and the others were waiting for her. She walked into the building and with an agitated heart she asked,
“What is this all about?”
Max looked at her and said,
“We found out that you fell in love on Antar and that you didn’t have time to talk to him”
“What are you talking about?”
Tess looked at her and said,
“I can remember a few things from Antar too and in one of my memories you told me that you fell in love with Larek, but he didn’t have the same feelings for you”
“How are you going to help me?” she asked
It was then that the three told her about Brody and the connection he had with them. It was quite a shock to her, but it might work.

Brody looked up from his computer when he saw Max and the others walk up to him,
“Max what are you doing here?”
“Brody, I think we must try one more time with your memory”
“You know that it might not work”
“I know, but there is no harm in trying”
“Sure” Brody saw Isabel walk up to him and looked into her eyes, Isabel took his hands into her and suddenly a white light entered the room and both of them were flung towards the opposite wall.
“What is the news, Your Majesty?” Lareck answered out of Brody’s body
“Larek there is someone who needs to speak to you”
“Who?”
Joanne walked forward and said,
“Hello Larek, it’s been a long time”
“Ruétte, what are you doing here?”
“Well it seems like I was also placed on this earth”
The three aliens left the two alone while they try to work on their relationship. It might help that they can come together.

I know that you have been waiting. Here is the next part
~*~
Joanne sat down on the chair and waited for Larek to talk,
“I know what this is about and I think that I must come clean”
“What are you talking about?” she asked
Larek looked at Joanne and said,
“I knew that you loved me, because I loved you too. The only thing that stopped me from confessing it to you was Rath. He came to me the day before you told me and asked me what I felt for you. I told him the truth and it angered him. He informed me that you were promised to Kivar. Yes, you heard me. It was before he seduced Vilandra and before he became power crazy. Kivar and your brother were friends and your brother promised you to him. When the war started Kivar came to your brother insisting that the two of you marry and your brother refused. It was then that Kivar swore revenge and he did something unforgivable”
“What did he do?” Joanne wanted to know
“Do you really want to know?”
“Yes”
Larek walked over to Joanne and placed his hand onto Joanne’s forehead. A faint white light came into the room and folded over Joanne like a blanket.
Flash
Larek was in the throne room looking at the latest developments when Kivar came into the room. He walked over to Larek and asked,
“Do you know where Ruètte is? I need to talk to her”
Larek looked at Kivar and said,
“I think she’s in the garden. She said that she needs some peace”
“Thank you” with that Kivar left
Larek looked at the disappearing form of Kivar and decided to follow the man, he felt that there was something not right and if something is wrong he needs to warn Zan. He hid behind the palace wall looking at Kivar as he walked towards the young princess. Slowly he closed his eyes and tuned into the conversation,
“Ruètte I think that we must marry”
“Are you crazy Kivar! I won’t marry you even if you are the last man on Antar!” Ruètte replied
When she said that she could see that Kivar got angry, but this didn’t bother her and she turned away to leave. Kivar saw her leave and with a violent movement he pulled her closer and said,
“If I can’t have you then no one can”
It was then that the unforgivable happened, Kivar ripped Ruètte’s gown and threw her to the ground. He then forced himself on her and stood up and smiled. After that Ruètte just lie there crying. She felt used and didn’t want anyone to see her that way. Larek rushed towards her and pulled her up,
“It’s okay. I know that your brother won’t tolerate that behavior” he placed his tunic around her shoulders and guided her to the palace where he informed Zan of what happened. Zan shouted orders informing his army to locate Kivar and his men, but as soon as they were given the war started.
End of Flash

Joanne sat there crying and looked at Larek,
“What am I going to do now?”
“Well, the only thing you can do is telling your brother and the others what happened to you”
“Sure I will”
“Oh, I love you”
“Love you too” she replied and it became silent. When she looked again she saw Brody standing there,
“What happened?” he asked her
“Well, it was a success, but it wasn’t a bad experience. You were send on an intergalactic tour”
“Thank you” with that he left the office and told Max, Tess and the others that they can go in.

When Max saw Joanne sitting there he knew that something happened. He could see it in her eyes; he walked to her and asked,
“What happened?”
Joanne looked at them and said,
“I think you better sit down for this”
When Max heard that on Antar his sister was raped it angered him and he shouted,
“I will get him for what happened to you!”

They left the UFO Centre and walked to the CrashDown, it was a long and silent walk. No one wanted to talk about what happened, even though it had to be done they knew for a fact that now they must be careful. Joanne saw Mulder walking to his room and she turned to the group and said,
“I think I must go. If Mulder sees me with you guys I might be in danger”
Isabel looked at Joanne and asked,
“I know that it is a strange question, but I feel that something happened in that man’s life. Why is he after us or any other aliens?”
Joanne looked at Isabel and the others and said,
“I think that you must try and Dream Walk Mulder. Here is a photo of him. You will then understand the predicament he is in”
“Thank you” Isabel said and left.

Isabel walked to her bed and placed the photo next to her pillow slowly she closed her eyes and traced her finger across Mulder’s face. When she entered the dream plain she could see everything that had happened to the man. She even saw the abduction of his sister and why he decided to work in the X-File division of the FBI. She could understand what had happened, because in a way it happened to them. They were kept in the dark and then to hide from everyone. After the whole dream plain situation, she decided to tell Max everything that happened. Maybe she could ask him if they could inform Mulder of who they are.

At Tess’s house there was so much tension, Nasedo still wanted her to betray Max and the others and even through what happened she could see that Nasedo was getting pissed. She looked at him and said,
“I told you once and I am not going to tell you again. I am not going to do that so you can forget about that”
Nasedo glared at her and said,
“You don’t have to worry anymore. There is a way to…” but he couldn’t get another syllable out. The phone rang and he walked over to it.
“Yes… I understand. I am on my way”
“Tess, I have been called to work. So you have to stay here for a few hours alone”
With that he left her in the living room, Tess saw his form disappear and decided to follow him. She needs to know what was going on.

At the abandon soap factory Nasedo stopped his car and stepped into the dimly lit corridor,
“You wanted to see me?” he asked a dark figure
“Yes, I would like to inform you that Kivar is coming to Earth. He decided to deal with the royal family on his own”
“What about the sixth alien?”
“What are you talking about?” Nicholas asked
“Well, I found out that there was another pod in the chamber and I even found out who the occupant was”
“Who is the fifth member?”
“It is Ruètte, she was the only one who can identify me as the traitor and she can also testify against Kivar for what he did to her”
“I’ll tell Kivar about this and then he can deal with her on his own”
“Sure, what must I do in the mean time?” Nasedo asked
“Do what they told you to do as a front and maybe you can learn a few things about them”
“Sure” with that Nasedo left the factory.

Joanne looked on as she saw the car left, she felt scared. What is she going to do when Kivar comes to Earth? She took her car and drove back to the town; she has to warn the others about this new development. If Kivar doesn’t want to destroy her she knows for a fact that he will destroy everyone she cares for.

I know that you have been wating long. SO here is the next part
~*~



Antar
FLASH
Kivar looked at the war-torn planet. He swore under his breath, because he knew for a fact that there were still a few loyal subjects of Zan on this planet. When he heard that one of his admirals were placed on the ship as the royal four’s protectors he knew that it would be his chance for revenge against that empire. He walked up to the man and said,
“You know that when Zan remembers his past he won’t give up that easily”
“I know sir. That is why I came up with the plan of recruiting Ava for us. I will make sure that she won’t remember her love for Zan”
“Good, but as soon as there are problems you let me know”
“Yes, sir” with that the protector walked towards the ship carrying the eight pods. Unbeknownst to him that a ninth one was placed with the original four.
END OF Flash

He looked at the communicator in his hand, it was Nicholas that contacted him from Earth informing him that Ava decided not to betray Zan. It was one of those loves for eternity deals she had with Zan. Now he knows that he had to get to Earth fast, before things get too much out of control.
“Do you know of any humans that won’t find out if I take over his mind for a while?” he asked Nicholas
“Sir, the only one who might be of service to you is a government agent”
“Who?”
“Well, his name is Agent Fox Mulder”
“What makes you so sure that he is the best one for the job?”
With that Nicholas informed him that the man is here in search of the truth and if he wants the truth what better way to do it than this. So it was decided, he would take over Mulder’s body and maybe this time he would be able to destroy the royal family.
~*~
Earth
It was a still night with only the sounds of nature around them. Joanne was still thinking about what happened to her on Antar. What if Kivar comes to Earth and sees her? She won’t be able to avoid him forever. Suddenly her thoughts were interrupted when the phone rang next to her bed,
“Hello” she listened for a while and replied
“I’ll be right there.”
She stood up rapidly and walked out of her room, what is the big emergency that Isabel and the others wanted to talk to her about? As she closed her door, she looked over to where Mulder’s room was; she knew for a fact that if he knew who she was it would place everyone in terrible danger.
At the CrashDown everyone was agitated, Isabel still felt the need to run away, even though she was told that she wasn’t the one who betrayed her family. Max was so angry about what happened to his sister. The reason for Isabel’s agitation was the fact that she somehow knew Kivar was coming to Earth, she could feel the strange vibrations in the air. The only thing she didn’t know was in what kind of human form Kivar would arrive on Earth. She tried hard to connect with people around her, but nothing could give her solace. Joanne decided to go into the bathroom earlier, knowing that what was revealed to her by Larek might drove a wedge between her and her family. Tess decided to follow her and as she entered the restroom she heard Joanne cry,
“Joanne, Max isn’t angry with you for what happened”
“I know that, but I feel like I am letting everyone down. As a matter of a fact I felt like running away”
“You know, the first time I met Max I was feeling the same way. He didn’t remember our lives together on Antar and he had someone else in his life, but after a while we just started to reconnect with our souls. You will see that everyone is happy with the decisions they made”
“What about Liz and Maria? Are they happy?”
“I don’t know about Maria, but I know that Liz is feeling heartbroken with what happened. You see Max and she was an item before I came into the picture. So now everything is just on hiatus”
“Thank you for being my friend as what you were on Antar”
They left the restroom and walked back to the group.
~*~
Abandoned Soap Factory
Kivar (Mulder) walked into the warehouse looking at Nicholas, he knew that this kid was one of his best acolytes. He sat down on one of the boxes and looked at the kid,
“What news do you have for me?”
“Sir, you know that the royal four is now stronger than what they were before, but what you don’t know is that they found another member”
“What are you talking about?”
“Well, I just heard from the protector that a fifth pod was discovered in the cave and that it was Rûette that was in that pod”
“Are you sure?” Kivar asked
“Yes, it also seemed that she remembered what happened on Antar”
“Don’t worry, I’ll deal with her on my own”
“Sure, but what are you going to do?”
“As you can see, I am in the body of an FBI agent. I’ll just do what he would do”
~*~
CRASHDOWN CAFÉ
Tess walked into the café hoping that Joanne was there so that she could warn the girl, but she wasn’t. She saw Max sitting in his usual booth and sat next to him,
“Max we have a problem”
Max’s head jerked up as he looked at his girlfriend,
“What are you talking about?”
She told him that she followed Nasedo to the abandoned soap factory and that she saw Kivar was already on Earth, but there is a problem. Kivar took over the FBI Agent’s body and if Joanne came into contact with that man it would be suicide.
“Is there a way we could stop her?” he asked
“Well, I know for a fact that she wants nothing to do with Kivar. She hates him for what he did to her. The only thing that could pose as a problem was the fact that she wanted to trust Mulder”
“Well, go to her hotel room and warn her. I will deal with Kivar from this side”
“Sure” with that she left
She walked to the girl’s door and knocked,
“Joanne I need to speak to you”
“Come on in” she heard from the inside. As she opened the door she heard a song that made her smile.
I’d rather stay bold and lonely
I think of you as my one and only
Stop doing what you keep doing to me

Things are getting strange
I’m started to worry
This could be a case for Mulder and Scully
Things are getting strange, now I can’t sleep alone

“Where did you get that song?” Tess asked
“I don’t know, all I know is when I switched the radio on it was playing on the station. I just thought that it was a strange and funny song”
“You are right about one thing. It is strange”
“What did you come here for?” Joanne asked
“Well, I followed our precious protector and I learned that Kivar is already here on Earth, but there is one thing that I need to warn you about”
“What”
With that she told the girl that Kivar took over Mulder’s body and that if they confront each other everything would blow up. She even told Joanne that Max said he would confront Kivar for what he did to her.
“I know that I don’t have to worry, but I do. Kivar took away my dignity and left me to be killed by that demented teenager. I deserve to avenge my death on Antar and maybe even yours!” she shouted
Tess walked over to Joanne and placed her hand on the girl’s shoulders,
“I know, but Max is equip enough to do it”
“I….I just feel used, now that I could remember everything that happened to me on Antar. I don’t like it at all. There is just one thing I would like to thank you for”
“What is it?” Tess asked
“Thank you for being my friend
"No problem" Tess replied
The two walked out of the CrashDown and saw Mulder walking back to his hotel room. Joanne could feel the ice-cold air around the agent and knew that the last time she felt this was when she had that vision of Kivar. Slowly she turned towards Tess and asked,
"What am I going to do when Kivar confronts me?"
"The only thing you can do is try to avoid him. Remember he is not just Kivar now, but he is in the body of an FBI agent, if he wants to he can expose us and then it would be the end of us"

It was about three minutes later, when 'Mulder' returned to his room. He looked again at the files that were given to him by Skinner, it was the only evidence he had of Max and the others. Suddenly he heard a sound outside the room and decided to take a look at what has happened. He opened his door ajar and as he looked he saw Joanne and Tess walking side by side. Somehow he knew who the two were and he knew for a fact that Joanne was the only one who could identify him as her rapist. As for Ava, which is now Tess, he could deal with her on his own term. He knew that she wouldn’t betray her husband or any of her family. That is why he is here on Earth. He closed his door again and sat by the desk.

Tess left with a feeling that Joanne wanted more than revenge for what happened. She wanted t destroy everything that has something to do with Kivar and his thugs.
"I think that I need to remember more of Kivar,” she thought to herself as she drove to the house that she shared with Nasedo.

In the park next to her car a figure was standing looking at her with longing. It was the first time that he had the courage for facing this goddess. It was as if he was in love with her from the first moment he saw her, maybe he was, but he knew for a fact that his time for getting her as his love was over even before it started. Kyle was lost without her, but nothing was the same with her.


Tess stopped her car and walked into the house, when she saw that Nasedo wasn't there she relaxed more. Now she knew that she could go into her room and tried to remember Kivar. She closed her door and sat on her bed. Slowly she closed her eyes and as her body relaxed the visions came clearer.

FLASH
Antar
Ava looked at the man that stood next to Rath. She knew that it was Kivar, one of the generals of the five planets standing there. She could see that by some means that he was agitated. Suddenly Larek came into the room and she walked up to him.
"What is wrong?" she asked him
"Your majesty. I don't want to tell Zan yet, but I feel because you are closer to Rúette you must go to her. She needs someone to talk to"
"What happened?" Ava wanted to know
"I think it is better if you go to her room. She is there"
With that Ava left the conference and walked to the young princess's room. She heard a faint sobbing sound and tapped sofly on the door.
"Rúette it is I Ava, may I come in"
"Come in" she heard and opened the door.
What she saw was devastaded. The once bubbling girl was sitting in the corner of her bed hugging her legs. On the floor was her gown all ripped and bloodied. She walked to the girl and asked,
"What happened?"
With a shaken voice Rúette began to tell her what happened and that she was going to ask her brother to send her away on a mission.
"You told your brother about you being in his army?" Ava asked
"No, but I feel that it is time that I tell him and just leave. I can't stay here on Antar with the knowledge that Kivar was still here laughing at my expense"
"Let me go to Zan and tell him what happened"
She left the room and walked back to the conference room, there she saw the three generals in mid-conversation with Zan about something. She could see Larek there wanting to tell Zan about what happened to his youngest sister. Vilandra was also there looking at Rath, she walked over to the other princess and said,
"I think you must go to your sister. I was just there and I think that she wanted not to be left alone"
"I'll go, but what is going on?"
"I can't tell you much, but I feel that you might get more out of her" she said
As Vilandra left the room she walked over to Zan and said,
"I know that I should have told you earlier, but Rúette asked me not to, but I feel that it is time that I tell you"
"What is it?"
"Well, you might have wondered why Rúette isn't around that much, but the reason is simple. She decided to serve in your army. Even Rath wasn't aware of that"
"You know that I won't be angry at her for following her dreams, but why did she keep it from me?"
"What I am about to tell you is shocking, but I need to tell you"
"What?"
With that Ava told Zan what happened to the young princess and that she asked to be send away so that she won't be in the way and see Kivar's face. When she looked up she could see the outraged expression in the king's eyes. To know that is baby sister had to experience such an ordeal. He took his wife's hand and said,
"Don't worry. I'll deal with Kivar as for Rúette. Tell her that she can go to the family summer house where she could rest"
"Thank you"
END OF FLASH

Tess looked up from her daze and knew that it was a week before the uprising began and it was just the thing that needed to be revealed to the others. She walked to her telephone and dailed Joanne's number at the hotel.
"Hello"
"Joanne it is Tess here. I want you to come to my house immediatly. There is something I need to tell you"
"I am on my way"
She walked out of the room and locked it, but as she did that she saw Mulder coming towards his room. She decided not to talk to him at the moment, because she didn't know if he could be trusted.

'Mulder' saw Joanne exiting her room and was about to walk over to her, but when he saw that she didn't want to talk he retreated. He didn't want to give away his cover. He needed to stay Fox Mulder before he revealed the true reason for his presence here on Earth. With that he opened his hotel room and stepped into it. As he looked at the phone he noticed that there was a message for him. He walked to the phone and activated the machine.
"Fox, Dana here. I want to know if you had any success in finding Agent Pierce yet?"
He decided to call her the next day and tell her what he found out. That it was just a mistake and that Pierce was still here in Roswell, but first he had to keep up with the ficade that he is Fox Mulder to the rest of the group. Zan and the others must'nt be suspicous of who he is...that is not yet.

Joanne took a taxi cab to where Tess told her the house was located. She was rather puzzled about why the girl wanted to speak to her. As the cab stopped she saw that no car was outside the house and it was a relieve to know. She didn't want to see Nasedo yet. It was strange that she wasn't introduced to the man as Rúette, but it was a positive thing. She knocked on the front door and waited to be invited into the house. The door opened and Tess was standing there,
"Thank you for coming this soon. I was afraid that you won't"
"What is wrong?" Joanne asked as she stepped into the foyer
"Well, I did remember more of your ordeal with Kivar and I must tell you that the way Zan handled the whole thing was with curtecy for you. He told you, after he was informed about the rape that you could go to the summer house to rest. But...,"
"What?"
"Well, it was a week before the war and I know that you will say that you started it"
"Didn't I?" She asked
"No, you didn't. The only thing that started the war was the fact the Kivar was power hungry and he wanted to take over Zan's throne even if the rape ddn't take place"

Joanne sat there not wanting to move, but she let out a sigh of relieve. She hated the fact that now her life was pre-determined for her. All she could fully remembered was that she vowed to destroy Kivar for what he did to her and to her family. Suddenly they heard a car door close and she eyed Tess.
"It is Nasedo, his back"
"I...I don't think that I must face him" Joanne stammered
"You have no choice, sooner or later he will meet you and let me tell you something just don't mention the fact that you know he was the one who betrayed us on Antar"
"I'll try" she said and sat down again
The door opened up and Nasedo came into the house feeling pissed, for one reason it is the fact that Kivar gave him the orders to make sure that Ruètte doesn't come near the pod chamber and that she doesn't become friends with Tess. As he opened the door he could hear two voices in the living room, one of them he knew was Tess's voice while the other one was unfamiliar to him. As he opened the kitchen door he saw Tess talking to some girl. He walked in and looked at the girl.
Joanne was about to tell Tess that she needs to get back to her room when she heard the door open. As she looked up she saw him, her eyes widened from shock, but she made sure that he didn't notice it. Tess could see that Joanne saw something and looked in the way of the door, she was about to introduce Joanne to the man but was stopped,
"You don't need to introduce me. I know who this is" he smiled
With a shy smile Joanne looked at him and said,'
"I have been waiting a long time to see you"
"Well, I am sorry for not being there when you came out of your pod, but Tess and I had to elude the government"
Joanne looked at her watch and saw that it was already 20:00 P.M and said to Tess,
"I'll see you tomorrow at school"
"No problem" she replied
Joanne walked to the front door and when she stepped out into the night air she let out a sigh of relieve. She knew for a fact that she nearly told him that she knew that he betrayed her family and she didn't want to do that. With that she walked to her car and drove back to the hotel.

Inside the house Nasedo looked at Tess with anger, he knew that he was late with the fact that she won't betray them again and now with Ruêtte there things was getting worse by the minute.
"What!?" Tess said as she looked at Nasedo
"You know what you just did. You compromised everything"
"I did not. I just know that she is a good person and that she won't let anyone bully her"
"You know that she thinks she knows that FBI agent that is here, but she knows him more than she wants too"
"What are you talking about?" Tess asked
"Well, Kivar is here on Earth and he is inside that FBI agent. If they talk she might come aware of that and then everything Kivar tried to reach would end"
"Good, he needs to die for what he did to her"
"So you know"
"Yes. It was one of the memories Larek helped her to remember"
When Nasedo heard that the girl had contact with Larek it nearly blinded him with rage. He knew that Larek was one of the resistance leaders that want Zan return to the throne of Antar and if that happens then they are doomed. He didn't tell Tess that he would make sure that nothing of such importance could be revealed. Ruêtte was more than just Zan's baby sister. She was the one with all the power that could destroy The Skins and if Kivar fails as Mulder then he has to wait to get back to Antar for the real fight to begin.

Tess was sitting in her room, thinking about all the pain that Joanne had to endure on Antar. She knew that the girl didn't deserve that kind of treatment, and then suddenly it struck her. Her dupe had that same kind of treatment here on Earth, but this time it was Lonnie that treated the girl with hatred. She walked up to the phone and dialed a number. For a while there was silence and then she heard the familiar voice, it was as if she was talking to herself
"Ava here"
"Hey Ava it is Tess here. How are you doing?"
"Fine, since Lonnie is nowhere to be found and as for Rath I too don't know where he is. Why did you call me?"
"Um, I want to know, do you remember anything from Antar?"
"Well, I seemed to remember that Zan had a younger sister, but when I went to look at the place where our pods were there was just four, so I don't know if we had another one. Why?"
"Well, we have a fifth pod and she is here in Roswell, but now I had to learn that it was actually the protector that was assigned to us that betrayed us on Antar" with that she began to tell Ava everything that happened the past few days and that Kivar had come to Earth.
"I want you to come here to Roswell, maybe you could clear up any other questions there might be. Oh, did you ever heard from the other protector?"
"As a matter of a fact no. I don't know what happened to him. There are a few questions I would love to ask him. As for why did he abandoned us here and not tried to protect me against the wrath of Rath and Lonnie"
"I'll try to find him. I do remember one encounter I had with him. He tried to warn me of our protector, but I never listened to him. Now I do understand why he tried to warn me"
"I'll take the next flight to Roswell" Ava said and they said their good-byes and the two phones went dead.

Tess closes her door and walked towards her dresser. As she opened it she found what she has been searching for. A journal she kept since the day she found Max and opened it. She then took a pen and started to write in it.
*April 12
It has been a long time since I wrote to you, but I knew for a fact that if I'm not careful Nasedo would find this book and I am so not in the mood to explain myself to him. I sometimes wished that we never crashed on this planet and had to survive by knowing that the government and the Skins were after us. You see, Nasedo made a deal with Kivar a long time ago and now he tried to force it on me. I am not going to do it, but now there is another target in his eye and that is Max's younger sister. She is the one that could destroy the Skins for good, how I don't know. All I know is that I can feel that she is very powerful. I'll try to keep you in touch with what is going on with news*
Tess closed her journal and walked to her bed, where a dreamless slumber overtook her. Tomorrow she would have to tell Joanne about the dupes and that they were send as a Plan B to ensure that the royal family survives.

As the night progressed Joanne was feeling uneasy, she knew that there was something wrong with Mulder. She could feel it in the air, but she didn't know what to think of it. Maybe it is just this town that makes her paranoid? She walked to her bed and climbed into the covers where she, just as Tess did fell into a dreamless slumber.
*Good Moring Roswell. This is KQEZ Radio. To all those who felt lost here is a song for you* Joanne woke up as the song started to play. As she listened to it, it was as if it was played just for her. The song was by an artist called Dalenta. The song: Higher Ground. She climbed out of he bed and walked to the bathroom for her morning routine. After about five minutes she walked out of her room and walked straight to the CrashDown where she saw the whole gang waiting for her.
"Good-Morning Joanne" she heard Max and Tess say simultaneously
"Good-Morning"
"Um...Joanne we need to talk" Tess said
"About?" she asked as she walked to a booth.
Max and Tess followed her and sat down across from her. There they told her about the dupes and that Max's dupe was murdered by Lonnie and Rath. When she heard that she asked,
"Do I have a dupe?"
"No, I called Aver last night and asked her about it and she said that you don't have one. We also heard that there was another protector send to Earth, but he left them before they emerged from their pods. Which means that there are a few questions we want to ask him"

Suddenly the door opened and in came Ava, she looked at Tess and the others then she saw Joanne for the first time. Joanne looked at the frail young girl with a puzzled look on her face it was Tess that took her hand and said,
"This is Ava, my New York counterpart. Ava, this is Joanne also known as Ruêtte. Max's youngest sister"
Ava walked up to Joanne and said,
"I am sorry, but you don't have a counterpart. I just learned about your existence from Tess"
"Don't worry about that" Joanne replied then said,
"Maybe it is for the better that I don't have a counterpart. It is maybe because they didn't know that I was also send to Earth"
They walked to the booth and sat down, Tess looked at Ava and asked,
"You know where Cal is?"
"Yes, the last time heard was that he is staying in Hollywood as a successful movie producer"
"What, you tell me that The famous Cal Langley is the other protector!" Joanne exclaimed
"Yes,"
"Wow, I saw my first Cal Langley film when I was fourteen and I loved it. I think it was called *A Test of Loyalty*"
"I saw that one too and I think it is somewhat linked to our lives on Antar"
"You think so?" Tess asked perplexed
It was then that Ava told her what she could remember from Antar and that it was supposed to be just Cal who was send as a protector to the royal family, but somehow Nasedo found his way into the trust of the scientists and was send as the true Royal 4 (5)'s protector. Cal knew that Nasedo was working for Kivar, but he couldn't proof it.
"Do you have his number?" Max asked
"Well, only I have been keeping contact with him. A few months ago he came to New York and when he saw me he told me that whenever I need help I could contact him, but I must never reveal this to the other two. Somehow he knew that Lonnie and Rath killed my Zan and he didn't want to see that happen to me"
"Could you please call him and ask him to come to Roswell"
"What must I tell him?" she asked
"Tell him that you found us. But don't tell him about Joanne yet"
"Sure" she said and was about to dial the number when she heard another one open the door. As she looked up she saw a stranger walk in. Joanne heard the door open too and when she saw that it was Mulder she tried to walk over to him, but Tess stopped her.
"What are you doing?" Joanne asked
"Trying to stop you from making a big mistake"
"What?"
"Well, Mulder isn't Mulder anymore"
"Who is he?" Max asked
"Well, I can tell you now that Kivar took over Mulder's body and I know that he is just waiting for the right opportunity to reveal himself to us. That is why I didn't want to let Joanne go near him. She knows both the agent and the perpetrator too well"
"Thank you for stopping me" Joanne said and sat down back again.

*Mulder* sat in one of the booths and looked over to the front when he saw the group sitting there in deep discussion he knew that they were talking about Antar and what effect he had on that pitiful planet, but when he saw Ava he knew that they just found out that Nasedo was a plant and that Cal was suppose to have been the only protector for the royal family. Even though there were eight and not four as planned. He decided to walk out before the fight to start and walked to his car, he decided to go to the soap factory and talk to Nicholas, maybe that boy could tell him more of the other four.

Inside the CrashDown there was silence, Ava was still on the phone waiting for a reply from the otherside.
"Cal Langley's office, how may I direct your call?"
"Morning, may I please talk to Cal?"
"Whom may I ask is asking?"
"It is Ava. I need to speak to him urgently"
"I'll direct your call"
For a while all she heard was that irritating music from the phone, but it stopped as soon as it started.
"Ava, it has been a long time. What can I do for you?"
"Cal, I need you to come to Roswell. I found the others"
"Well, I'll take the next flight to Roswell as soon as I'm done"
"Thank you. Oh, you'll find us at a restaurant called The CrashDown" she replied and placed the receiver back.
"He's on the way"
~*~
HOLLYWOOD
Cal Langley's Office
Cal was rather perplexed, he knew that there were others, but he didn't know that they were found that soon. He looked at his clock and saw that it was 10:00 AM and with no one there he decided to take the day off and drive to the airport where his private jet is waiting. He needs to see the others before it is to late. As the motor started he sat back down looking at the only evidence he had left from Antar. A pendant that been haunting him since they crashed on Earth. He could also remember that brief encounter he had with Tess and he even tried to warn her of Nasedo, but with no success. Maybe they found out that Nasedo was a traitor and that would be so sweet.
"Mr. Langley, we will arrive on Roswell airfield in a minute"
"Thank you" he replied and sat back down
As he stepped out of the airplane he rented a car and drove the next mile to town. As he entered it, he saw the place Ava told him about. The cafe was rather odd with its alien motive in front, but it felt familiar to him. He stopped the car and walked into the cafe, it was then that he saw Tess and Ava next to each other. Ava looked at Cal and directed him to one of the booths. Joanne was in the kitchen looking outside the window at the encounter Ava had with the man. She knew for a fact that she needed to be careful before she could trust anyone else.

"Ava, it's good to see you again"
"You too" she replied and told the others that they could come out"
As Max and the others came out Cal looked at the young man, he knew that it was Zan, but he knew that the man doesn't remember much of his past,
"Why did you call me? It is more than what you told me over the phone, is it not?"
"You know me too well,” Ava replied and then said,
"Actually it is Tess that asked me to call you. Something strange happened and she could tell you more"
Cal looked at Tess and asked her the same question. Tess looked back at Cal and said,
"I can still remember the day you tried to warn me of our protector, but I didn't believe you at the time. Well, I do now"
"What made you change your mind?"
With that she told him that she knew that Nasedo has been working for Kivar all along, but she didn't reveal Joanne to him yet. She needed to find out if he is to be trusted before she could do that. As Cal heard what she had to say he could sense that there was more to the story than what she is telling him. He looked at her and said,
"There is more to the story. Isn't there?"
"Yes, there is, but I just want to know before I reveal it to you. Can we trust you?"
"You can trust me with your lives." when he said that he looked at Ava and said,
"I'm sorry about what happened to you"
"Don't worry" she said and sat down next to him

Tess left the room and walked to the kitchen. When she left Cal looked at her with a puzzled look in his eyes, why are they so secretive? He asked himself. Before he could answer the question Tess came in with a young girl. This girl was rather scared to come out, that is one thing he could sense.
"Cal, this is Joanne Pierce."
"Pierce!?" he exclaimed and was on the defence
"You don't have to worry about that. She is not like her father at all. As a matter of a fact you know her"
"How?" he asked
"This is actually Ruêtte, Zan's youngest sister"
"What!"
"Yes, but I came out of the pod in 1990, so no one knew about my existence that is until now. You don't have to worry about a thing. It was I who told them about who the traitor was. I could remember what happened on Antar. There is just one thing I must warn you about"
"What is it?" he asked
She told him that Kivar was on Earth in one of the FBI's most prominent agent's bodies. When he heard that he turned pale, he knew that Kivar would kill him if he finds out that he has contact with all the members of the royal family. Actually Nasedo was the one who was supposed to have killed him on the ship. It was that ordeal that caused the ship to crash on Earth. Nasedo thought that he was dead, but when it all came to the end he left the pods in a sewer in New York and decided to go on as a human. For fifty-seven years he was free and had no cares, but now his life was coming full circle. He is back with the Antarian Royal family.

I am sorry to be late, but here is the next installmet
~*~
*Mulder* sat in his room waiting for some way he could reveal
himself to the group, but it was easier said than done. He talked to
Nicholas the day before about what had happened on Earth and when he
found out about Ruêtte being there too he was pissed. He knew that
if Zan found out now what had happened on Antar it would mean the
end of him. He did love Ruêtte in the earlier times, but after a
while he could see that she could never betray her family and that
she didn't love him. She loved Larek and that man irritates him a
lot. Suddenly the phone rang and he answered it.
"Mulder, it is Dana here. Did you find them?"
"Yes, I did. Pierce is fine, but I have to say this town is just
what I need"
"So you are happy in that environment?"
"I have to tell you this, this town may not have little green men,
but it has the UFO charms here"
"Do you want me to come?"
"That won't be necessary. I can handle Pierce and Joanne by myself"
"Tell Joanne that we will think of her"
"Will do"
With that he placed the receiver back and dialed Nasedo's number.
When he heard the man he told him what he needed to be done for the
final conflict.

Joanne looked at Cal where he sat next to Tess and Ava and began to
tell him everything that had happened in her life. Both that has
been on Antar and here on Earth. She told him that Kivar took over
the body of one of her friends in the FBI and that when the time
comes she must face both of them. The one she knew how to handle,
while the other one needed to pay for what happened to her.
"When do you think you must face him?" Cal asked
She looked up then said,
"I think that it must be soon. I feel that the time for retribution
is near"
"You mean to tell me that you feel ready to return to Antar?" Max
asked
"Yes, I want to go home and rebuilt my life as I know you want to do"
"I do, but I don't feel ready to lead our people" Max replied
"You may not feel ready, but it is necessary for you to return
sooner or later."
Cal could sense that there were more questions from the group and he
sat there waiting for the questions to start.
"I want to know a few things. For instant why did you choose Earth
for us and are our mother still alive?" Joanne asked
"The reason we choose Earth was because of the atmosphere. We knew
that in human bodies you could survive and not suffocate like the
enemy and as for your mother. When we left Antar she was there
making the pods ready and with that she went underground. She is
staying with the resistance"
"Why did Larek not reveal this to us?" Max asked
"Larek, is he here on Earth?"
"No, he is using a human as some kind of alien cell-phone. It is how
we heard about most of the dangers and how Joanne heard about what
had happen to her on Antar."
"You say that the FBI agent that Kivar is using is your friend"
"Yes, why?"
"Well, there is a plus point. You could use this information to get
close to him and maybe so confront Kivar on some of the things that
had happened to you"
"It seemed great, but what makes you think that he would fall for
that?"
"You can tell him that you are ready to leave the past behind you
and that you want to be on his side in the war against your brother"
When Joanne heard that she was angry, she didn't want to be played
for a fool by anyone and now that was happening to her.
"I...I can't do that". She replied
Cal looked at her and said that it could help to divert that agent
and then they could get Kivar out of that agent's body. She thought
for a while then she said that she would try to do it. She stayed
there for a few minutes looking at the group with anticipation. She
could see that Tess was regretting the fact that she was placed in
such a difficult position, Max was angry for letting his younger
sister down, Michael was just eager to get back to Antar, while
Isabel was relieved to know that she wasn't the one who betrayed her
family. Suddenly Joanne stood up and said,
"I better get to my room. I saw Mulder had rented a room next to me,
so if I am going to do it I better do it now" with that she left

As Joanne left the CrashDown Max looked at Cal and asked if Ruétte
was a fighter. Cal looked at the young king and said,
"You never understood her. Even when she was the one who helped Rath
in most of the fights. She is more than a fighter. She has a will of
her own. Don't worry, she can handle Kivar, it is your protector
that you must be worried about"
Cal looked at his wristwatch and said,
"I better return to Hollywood. I'll contact you if the time is right"
Before he left Tess looked at him then she asked,
"What do you know about the Granolith?"
When he heard that word he turned towards her and asked,
"Why do you want to know?"
"Well, we found it and I know for a fact that it is powerful"
"You can't imagine the kind of power that machine had. It is more
than powerful it is dangerous


~*~
ANTAR
Queen Briggette sat in the chair that was provided for her by one of
the resistance soldiers. She knew that sooner or later her people
will have to fight more vigorously than what they are now. Kivar has
strengthened the defense so now it is harder to liberate the
populace than before. It was on one of these occasions that she
decided to follow Larek and it was there that she heard something
that gave her hope. She listened more and waited for the connection
to break before she confronted the young man.
"Why didn't you tell me that my children are okay?"
"It is not that I didn't want to Highness. It is just that the time
was never right to do it"
"What kind of news do you have?"
"Well, Zan and Ava are back together. Vilandra is just confused as
for Rath still stubborn and Ruétte she just found them after all
those years and now she remembers more of her past."
"I am glad to hear that. I just wished that there is a way to reach
them"
"It is better if you don't. Kivar is using a human to lure them to
their death, but you don't have to worry. Ruétte knows who the man
is he is using and she won't be fooled"
"If you speak to them again just tell them that I love them"
"Will do"
With that they walked into the compound and prepared for battle.
~*~
Earth
Tess looked at the disappearing figure of Cal and looked at the
others that were still sitting there. She could see that Joanne was
being quieter than usual and she walked over to the young girl,
"You don't have to worry about a thing. You know who Kivar is using
and it could be used to our advantage"
"I know that, it is just that if Kivar and I confront each other it
could be a devastated blow for Mulder's body".
Tess looked with a questionable look at Max and said,
"What are we going to do about that?"
"We can make sure that the blow won't have an affect on Mulder"
Joanne looked at Max and saw the understanding in his eyes; she knew
that with her entire family there to help her all would be fine. She
stood up and said,
"I'll contact him tonight and set the ball on the roll. I need to
confront my past sooner"
She left the CrashDown and walked back to her room. As she stepped
into the room she broke down and began to cry, why is it always she
who had to do everything?

*Mulder* looked outside the room when he heard a sob from the next
room, the human side felt pity while the other side was feeling
vengeance. He walked out of his room and knocked on the door,
"Coming!" he heard from the inside

Joanne wiped her eyes and washed her face down, she didn't want to
show anyone weakness and walked to the door. When she opened the
door and saw him standing there she was shocked,
"What do you want Agent Mulder" she said not showing him that she
knew who the man really was
"I'm sorry to bother you Joanne, but can I come in for a while. We
need to talk"
"Sure" she opened the door wider and he stepped in.
Joanne looked skeptic at the Agent in front of her, she knew that
she had to tell him that she knew who he was, but if she does that
it would be catastrophic for her.
"What do you want?" she asked
*Mulder* looked at her and suddenly it wasn't the agent anymore, it
was Kivar that talked to her
"I know who you are, Ruètte, you can't hide from me forever"
"Kivar, I knew that you took over the body of my friend here and I
must say that it was a clever strategy to lure me and my family to
our deaths, but I have a proposal for you"
"What?"
She sat down and looked straight into the man's eyes and said,
"I will surrender myself to you and return somehow to Antar, if only
you leave my family alone"
"What makes you think that I will fall for that?" he smirked
She looked at him and replied,
"I'll give you my word and if that isn't enough for you. Here"
With that she took a small knife and drew some blood,
"Is a blood oath good enough for you?"
*Mulder* looked at the small trickle of blood on the girl's finger
and smiled,
"If you are willing to come back to Antar to stand trail for treason
against the throne and die then yes, I will leave your brother and
the other royals alone, but if it is a trap then you will die too"
"Understood"
With those words he stood up and left the girl alone in her room.
Joanne cried, but this time she knew what is waiting for her. She
knows that she wanted to trap Kivar so that he would leave Mulder's
body, but with this oath she just gave him, he would leave without a
fight. She walked to her phone and dialed Tess's number.

Tess sat in her room reading a book when suddenly her phone rang,
"Hello?"
For a while she listened and said,
"Come to my house. I can hear that you are troubled"
"What just happened?" she asked herself as she placed the receiver
back, suddenly it struck her. She needed help from the others. She
phoned them and said that they needed to come to her house for a
meeting.

Joanne took her car keys and drove to Tess's house, what will the
others say if they hear this? Maybe she could avoid the oath? For a
while she drove with her mind on the ordeal that was waiting for her
on Antar. Suddenly the house loomed in front of her and she climbed
out of her car. She saw the others were there too,
"Oh no" she whispered

Tess saw Joanne stop and open the door, as she stepped inside she
saw Max look at her with a question in his eyes, Isabel was scared
too.
"What's wrong?" Tess asked the young girl
"I think you all better sit down for this"
They sat down and waited for an answer from her. Slowly, but
hesitant she began to tell them what happened, when she came to the
part about the oath she could hear the indrawn breaths from the
group,
"What have you done?" Max asked her
"It was the only thing I could think off. I had to find away for him
to leave you alone and to leave my friend's body. That is why I did
it. I'm sorry, but what is done is done. I am going to be killed on
Antar and with that I know that you will have peace"
Isabel started to cry, this time it was for her baby sister,
"Joanne, thank you for letting us know you"
"It's not a lost cause, maybe I can avoid being killed"
Suddenly the doorbell rang and as Tess walked to the door, she saw
that it was Brody, but she knew that it was Larek in Brody's body,
"Yes?"
"Your Majesty, I came with news"
"We have news of our own"
He stepped inside and saw everyone there,
"What do you have for us Larek?" Max asked
"Sire, we heard from one of our spies inside Kivar's army that he is
making ready for one of the royals"
"You are right Larek," Joanne replied,
"I decided to give my life for my friends and family to be left
alone"
"You mean to tell me?"
"Yes, I am returning to Antar, but to be executed"
Joanne stood up and walked out of the room, she needed to think
about this all. How will this take place?

Max looked at *Brody* and said,
"Is there a way to stop this from happening?"
"I could try and find out"
"Please do, I don't want to loose my baby sister"
They stood up and walked to the door. With that the shook hands and
*Brody* left.

~*~
ANTAR
Larek came out of the trance and walked to the queen who was waiting
for news of her family,
"And?"
"It's true Your Majesty"
"Who is it?"
"It's Ruètte, she is coming back, but she made a deal with Kivar,
her life for the freedom of her family and friends"
"What!" she cried
"Yes, she is returning, but she is to be executed. That is why
everything is in such a mess"
Queen Briggitte looked at the young man in front of her, she knew
that Larek loved Ruètte and to learn that his True Love is going to
be killed can't be easy. She walked to the young man and said,
"I'm sorry"
"Me too. I am in love with her and now I am going to loose her for
the second time"
The door opened up and one of the officials came into the room with
an urgent message,
"Sir, we heard from our sources that the young princess is returning
by the next day"
"So soon?" they asked
"It's Kivar, he found a way for the girl to return. It is in a
warehouse on Earth"
"Thank you for the news"
"So, it is time for us to face us all"
So now they have to wait until the young princess return and maybe
they can help her escape death.
~*~
EARTH
*Mulder* looked at Nicholas and Nasedo as they stood next to him.
They knew that Joanne made a deal with him and it was a victory for
them. He turned to Nasedo and said,
"I found a way for her to return, but I want to make sure that it
will only be her to return to Antar"
"Understood" Nasedo said and left the warehouse
*Mulder* looked at Nicholas and said,
"It sure was an interesting trip"
"What do you want me to do after you left the Agent's body?"
"Make sure that he doesn't remember a thing that has happened"
"It won't be easy"
"I know, but it must be done. Now leave I am going to Joanne's room
and tell her that it is time"
He left the warehouse and walked into the hotel where he has been
staying next to Joanne's room, he knocked on the door and waited for
her to open it,
"Coming" he heard from the inside and waited
Joanne walked up to the door and when she opened it she knew that
her time has come,
"It's time, isn't it?"
"Yes, you will be returning tomorrow"
"What about my family, are you going to leave them?"
"We'll see how things work out"
With those words he walked back to his room and closed the door.

Joanne closed her door and sat on her bed crying, just when she
thought that she finally found her family this has to happen. She
walked up to her phone and dialed Tess's number, when she heard the
answering machine she decided that the only thing for her to do is
to leave a message,
"Tess, I am leaving tomorrow for Antar, I know that Kivar will leave
you alone. Just tell Max and the others I will miss them and thank
you for being there for me here and on Antar" she terminated the
call and walked to the bed where she fell into a troubling sleep.
Tess walked into the house and when she saw the light on the machine
blink she listened to the message. When she heard the sad voice of
Joanne she knew that it is what they all feared. She called Max and
the others and asked them to meet by the cave. With those words she
drove to the desert where the cave was. Max looked at her and asked,
"What's wrong?"
"Max, I just got a message from Joanne saying that she will be gone
by tomorrow".
Ava looked at her and said,
"I think it is time to call Cal again. We need to find a way back to
Antar and maybe stop her from being executed"
"Call him!" they screamed
It didn't take a second invitation from them, when Ava took her cell-
phone. She waited a while, but suddenly she heard his voice,
"I knew that you would be calling. I am on my way"
She too terminated the call and looked at the others where she gave
them the message.

Inside the hotel room Joanne woke up knowing that it was morning.
She stood up and walked to the kitchen where she made herself a cup
of tea and some eggs. As she ate her breakfast she knew that this
was her last day on Earth. She closed the door and walked over to
the room where *Mulder* was staying. For a while she hesitated, not
wanting to knock, but that didn't give her much chance. She looked
at the door and then was about to walk away when suddenly the door
opened up,
"I knew that it was you"
"Is it time?" she asked
"Just let me grab my coat"
She waited a while she was nervous, but she knew that this was the
best thing she could do.
"Ready?" she heard the man say
"Yes, I am" with those words she left
