Summary: Guess who? No serious go on guess...

“I was playing ball with Vanessa, we’d been friends for about a month now and I was tossing the ball, I missed it and it was my turn to get it. It rolled off the front garden and onto the road, I was only little and I didn’t think I just went out after it”
“And you got hit by a car?” he asked as he put one leg over another and rested his clip board on it
“Yes sir” I replied calmly. I wanted to go home to mommy and daddy, this wasn’t fun but he’d said they were in an accident.
“Did you die?” he pressed after writing down what I said
“I’m not sure” it was the honest truth. It had been hard to remember exactly what happened, it’s not everyday that a kid gets hit by a car and lives to tell the tale without so much as a scratch
“Do you know what happened when the car hit you?”
“Vanessa screamed and I heard her mom shout and then the people were standing over me, the people who hit me” I pulled nervously on the seat “Then those brown eyes”
“Brown eyes?” he looked up away from his clipboard and to me “Was it Vanessa?”
“No Vanessa has green eyes like her mommy” I told them
“And what happened when you saw those brown eyes?”
“I felt better. But I felt lonely when they went away, I looked round and I couldn’t see where they went” I told them
“Well we’re going to be doing more tests on you. Especially on that handprint you have on your stomach. We’re going to return you to the room you were shown first. You’re going to live here”
“But what about my mommy and daddy”
“They wanted you to live here if anything happened to them”
“Will I ever see Vanessa again?”
“I’m afraid not. You have to stay here and you’ll live here and maybe when you’re older you can go back out?”
“Why aren’t I allowed to go out now?”
“Because you could be dangerous to people” he began “This man here will be your father from now on. He’s your new daddy okay?” a man walked in. He looked too young
“Hello, I’m going to be your father is that okay?”
“I guess” she looked down at the floor then knelt down in front of her and smiled.
“We’re going to be real friends”

I sighed as I collapsed down onto my bed. It was another hard day in the lab, I had worked here since I was little it was because I was supposed to be really smart but I didn’t buy it for a second. It was because I was different I could do things that others couldn’t and that’s why they kept me here. They always injected me with this stuff afterwards, it was “supposed to increase my mental capacity” but that was another thing I didn’t believe. It was to stop me from using my powers, one day they slipped up. I never really showed them all of my abilities. I used my special one on them, the one I had been practicing in secret, and I warped the doctor who would inject me. It was actually quite easy; I made him think he’d injected me when he really hadn’t.
I went and got supper from the canteen and waited for graveyard shift, that was when people went home and only two guards remained in the control station. After lock down I stood up and went to the door of the home I had called my own since I was six I had lived here for almost ten years and I had reservation about leaving it but I had to find those brown eyes who held my heart. How can someone love by his or her eyes? I don't know but I need to see them again. The door opened and I stepped out cautiously to see if they had caught onto the fact that I was escaping. I walked along the hall and to the steps people disappeared up at the graveyard. If I try I can still remember that place up there, it’s been a while since I went up there. The last time it had been my birthday wish. I was put in a little cart and they took me round for about half an hour before taking me back. I paused for a moment, then turned and walked up without any hesitation. I found myself in an airport hangar; I had been taught about all kinds of places that were likely to store weapons. It was pitch black and really cold, it was so cold I almost considered going back down there to my home but I decided against it. I walked along the wall doing my best not to be seen, it was kinda funny really they’d taught me about how to get out of tricky situations army training they called it in case bad people captured me. I wasn’t sure who the bad people were but I would be ready for them.
I got so far and I was at a fence, I looked about and burnt a whole in it and ducked under and got out. I ran along the dusty road as fast as I could just to get far away from that place. It must have been placed in the middle of the desert because soon I got tired and I couldn’t run anymore and the sun was coming up. It got really hot in a matter of minutes and I passed out.
“Is she okay? She stills looks rather burnt?” I opened my eyes and met brown ones; it was shocking I had seen those brown eyes before.
“I don't know. Maybe we should take her to mom? Mom would know what to do” I saw another pair of brown eyes but nothing similar. I was lifted up and carried off
“Where are you taking me?” I rasped barely my throat was dry with the heat
“To our house. We live in Arizona, do you know where you are?” he managed to lift me up a bit more and I put an arm round his shoulder and leaned on him
“No I don't I…” I must have passed out again. Because the next thing I remember is warm kind eyes staring at me, it was some woman and she was fussing over me. She fixed the cloth on my head and smiled at me
“Who are you?”
“I’m Beth… what’s your name?”
“Serena. My name is Serena…” I whispered because it still hurt to talk. She handed me some water to sip and I wanted to drink it all but she told me not to
“My kids found you out in the desert. What were you doing out there?” she asked as she put the glass on the side and fixed the cover
“Running away” I said feeling more sleepy “Can I go to sleep now?”
“Yes I know. Get some rest” she stood up and disappeared leaving me alone. I couldn’t get back to sleep after that, I felt myself getting better and once I gathered enough energy I healed myself up.
I crept downstairs and found Beth talking with her kids and a man I’d never seen before. I wondered who he was; I’d never seen him before. I stayed still on the stairs and watched them talk the door opened and in walked another man but he was younger than the one sat at the table.
“Hey” said Beth as she got up and kissed his cheek
“What’s up?” he asked as he settled down at the table next to the older man
“Well Alex and Evie found this girl in the desert. She said she was running away, she could be from an institution. She was wearing hospital scrubs…”
“Man. How old is she?”
“Probably sixteen, seventeen?” she guessed she was good.
“I wish Max would get back. He knows more about this stuff than I do”
“Kyle you’re still apart of this. We have to find out about this girl and we need to know she’s safe, we can’t bring the law because they could look into us” she patted his hand and he stood up and paced.
“What do you think Dad?” he asked the older man
“I think we should talk to her. Find out what she’s doing out here and who she is”
“That seems simple enough,” I said as I walked down the steps “Basic police training am I right? Code of conduct and all when you’re investigating people?”
“Serena are you okay?” Beth stood up looking guilty. Probably hoping that I didn’t hear that
“I’m fine. So you want to know about me? You would be shocked at your own government if I told you the truth”
“The government? Are you a spy, have you been looking for us?”
“No I haven’t. I’ve been trying to get far away as possible” Beth looked to the two other men
“Valenti when do they get back?” she asked
“It takes about three days there and three days back. They could be about ten days, when did they leave?”
“Four days ago. I wish he’d come home”
“Liz you can do this. You’ve coped in the past”
“But if she’s a spy then our lives are screwed!” she shouted angrily
“I’m not a spy,” I said calmly but they were arguing now and not really listening to me
“We should get rid of her,” said Kyle “Think of the children, do you really want them to end up in the White Room like Max?”
“No I don't” Beth turned and raised her hand I could sense the energy building and I put my hand up in defence and through out a perfect shield
“What…”
“The…”
“Fu…” began the youngest boy but Beth glared at him.
“How did you do that?”
“You want to know about me?”
“Yes”
“My name is Serena… I don't remember my last name it’s been so long. When I was six I was playing with my friend Vanessa in her front yard. The ball rolled off and I went after it into the road, a car hit me and I was dying. The next thing I knew there was brown eyes above me and making me feel better… they made me feel safe”
“I couldn’t let you die,” announced the boy and I smiled. I knew it was him.
“You? You healed her?”
“I was only a kid at the time and she seemed so pretty and it just felt so wrong!”
“Alex! You know what happens when you heal people!”
“Any way the police got involved and the handprint was reported. I was taken away and told my parents were dead, I haven’t seen them since. I was put in a special place and I got a new dad and I lived in the labs, I showed them things but I kept some things hidden like the mind stuff. They only know I can do physical things; I warped the inhibitor doc one night and slipped out. They didn’t notice me going because it was the graveyard shift”
“You mean you’re been in the White Room for almost ten years?”
“Yes mam” I said with a nod “They taught me all things. They didn’t teach me about regular every day stuff like money and all. They taught me science and physics, that’s my favourite subject by the way, and math and English and all languages. I can speak in five different languages and sing in seven!”
“Wow now that’s an impressive resume”
“Res… ume?” I asked the guy and he just laughed
“I guess they really did leave stuff out”
“Well I have to get going… the law don't keep itself,” he said and I caught sight of his badge
“You’re a sheriff?” I asked and he nodded
“Yeah I am why?”
“Could you help me find my parents? Please I know they weren’t killed I wanted to see my mommy and daddy again!”
“Oh I…” he looked at Beth
“Please! I’ve never known my parents please help me find them” I’m not usually the kind of girl who cries but I wanted this so bad.
"Okay. If that's okay with you Liz?"
"Sure" she nodded and I followed him out to the car. Maybe I was getting back to normal? Maybe I was going to have the life I was saved for?

Summary: The Cop Car ride back to Roswell.

"So how long have you known Beth?"
"All her life. She was friends with my son and went out with him for a while a couple a years ago before she broke up with him and fell in love with Max"
"Max is..."
"Max is Beth's husband and Alex and Evie's father. They've lived out in Arizona for the last twenty two years and I'm surprised they made it this far"
"What's your job like?" I was running out of questions
"It's difficult. It used to be simple and easy, I never thought about how the criminal felt but now..." he trailed off. I shifted uneasily in the seat, I wasnt very used to cars. The last one I had seen had almost killed me
"How did Alex make me feel better ten years ago?"
"He um he healed you"
"Healed me? Like a doctor?"
"No he's... he's an alien. I dont want to be the one to tell you this"
"An alien and now because I'm healed I'm an alien too?"
"Yes I believe so. So Serena, do you have any brothers or sisters?"
"My mom had a son in her first marriage. I remember that much but I never met him, I've got an older sister who's seventeen. Well she's probably twenty seven now..."
"Can you remember your last name or where you lived?"
"I lived in Colorado for sure but I dont remember my last name. Is that bad?"
"No it's not bad Serena. Are you worried that we're like those FBI people?"
"No sir I'm not. You dont feel cold, I can normally read a person and I've been thrown off that you're so nice. When I escaped I expected I'd find everyone just as horrible and dislikeable as those people at the lab but I dont. I feel at ease with you lot so is it just you, Kyle, Beth, Max, Alex and Evie?"
"Well no not really. I was married before and she left me, I got married again about eleven years later to Amy Deluca. She's got a daughter called Maria and she's with Michael. He's an alien too but me you Kyle and Beth all have one thing in common"
"What?"
"We were healed from the point of death. We're different now because of it, Max is a healer and his sister, Isabel, and their friend Michael are full hybrid aliens"
"They're the enemy" I said coldly. I had been taught against my will that my own kind would hurt me
"Now that's not true. Serena Max saved my life and Beth's life and Kyle's life"
"What about me? Was it him that saved me that day?"
"No from what I gathered it was Alex who saved you. They were running at the time and he'd wandered off away from the Burger King they were at. He scared the hell out of Beth" he chuckled and I thought back to that day. Did Alex really heal me? I would never truly know until he said for sure that it was him.
"So what was your first wife like?"
"She was nice. She didnt like the badge"
"Badge? What badge?"
"My cops badge" he said pointing to it
"Why is it dirty?"
"No it... never mind. She didnt like it and we argued a lot over all sorts of things. Sometimes it was Kyle and sometimes it her work, she said I was suffocating her and one day I came home and found Kyle crying. She'd left a note and just walked out. That was one of the hardest days for me, I felt so sorry for Kyle because he came home only seven years old and he was the one who find the note"
"How sad" I said bluntly I wasnt really one for emotion
"Yeah"
"You said that was one of the hardest days for you what were the others?" he checked his watch and I could tell from the position of the sun that it was about four o'clock
"Dont you sleep?"
"I dont need anything but two hours each night" I said simply and he groaned.
"Well the other hardest day was saying goodbye to my son because I didnt know if I was going to see him again. I love my son and I've done everything to keep him safe. He's a good kid really and when he said goodbye it just hit home that this is it and I could never see him again"
"That's even sadder" I said as I turned and looked out the window
"So what about you? You must have some memories from your life before this"
"Well I had a friend called Vanessa. We were playing tag when we met, she tripped over and I went and helped her. She cried and then her mommy came over and took her home. She was back the next day and I played with her"
"Dont you have any memories of your mom or dad?"
"I dont really remember a dad. If I had one that's all well and good but my mom was never there for me that's why I spent a lot of time elsewhere. The Park, Vanessa's, School"
"Where was she?"
"I dont know. I got used to her not being around so I learnt to look after myself"
"Do you remember her name? Your mothers name?"
"I'm not quite sure but I think it was Michelle"
"What about your father? Did she ever tell you about him?"
"Lisa, that's my older sister whose seventeen, said once that he was called James"
"Michelle and James. They shouldnt be too hard to find and you said they lived in Colorado? I'll have a few contacts check it out and we can search through some old newspapers and see if anyone reported a missing girl"
"Thank you" I know I spent my life in a box with a big window getting poked and prodded but I valued the little things. Like manners, they were very important to me. You had to be grateful for the things you were helped with.
"So your sister Lisa?" he asked
"Oh she's twenty seven and has brown hair like mom. She was always out with friends, I barely saw her but we shared a room. She was almost three times my age when I got taken away. I miss her, she was really cool"
"Well I'm sure we'll find them for you"
"Thank you. For everything, it's more than I expected. Alex saved my life from dying, then Alex and Evie save me from burning to death in the desert and then you help me find my parents. I feel so lucky"
"Well now people care about you. People with real feelings and thoughts that are set on doing good. Once I read a journal and it was one of the most scariest and yet beautiful and wonderful things I've ever read"
"Who was it by?"
"A girl named Liz Parker. She wrote it about sixteen to nineteen years ago and it describes her life as she lived day to day. A lot of it was scary and sad because she lost one of her best friends, those experiences changed her life and now she's a better person for it. Look we're almost there"
"Do you know here?"
"Yes I know he very well. She's sort of family, it's a weird cycle really. But my daughter in law is married to a guy called Michael and his brother is Liz's husband"
"I bet she has a better life now. I wonder if I could meet her, somebody who gets a small town Sheriff to used the words beautiful, scary and wonderful in the same sentence must be good. No offense Sheriff"
"None taken. You've already met her"
"I have when?"
"Back there. Liz is short for Elizabeth and Liz goes by the name Beth now"
"You mean that was her? She wrote that? Wow I wish I could have read it"
"I'm sorry it got destroyed a long time ago after the parents finished reading it"
"Why did they read it?"
"Well hey deserved an explaination about why their children all skipped town. The FBI was after them and they had to leave, they were going to kill them. They left during Graduation, caused quite a show too or so I hear" he smiled "We're here. We'll go and start searching for your parents now okay?"
"Okay" I got out and saw his name on the badge as he leaned forward to get out of the car. James Valenti, it couldnt be could it?

Summary: Shocking revelations.

I had sat there for half an hour while he skipped through the records of missing girls from Colorado. I was getting rather board and I almost fell asleep in the chair but he shouted and I brought my head up so quickly my neck clicked.
"Huh? What?" I asked rubbing my sore neck
"I found you. I found a piece here about you missing, there's actuall a newspaper clipping" he said and I went round to see for myself. He began to read it out.

Serena, second daughter to single parent Michelle Valenti disappeared last week and hasnt been seen since. Any witnesses should come forward and inform the police so they can find missing six year old Serena Valenti... Valenti trailed off and looked at me
"I... I think you're my daughter" he said then his brow furrowed "You're sixteen right?" I nodded "Michelle left when Kyle was six. That was sixteen years ago so if your mom is called Michelle Valenti that means your my daughter"
"And. You're. My. Dad?" I gasped pausing between each word "Daddy" I broke out into tears and threw my arms around him. He put his arms around me and shushed.
"It's okay Serena. It'll be okay" he stroked my hair to calm me down "I never even knew I had a daughter. I can't believe I have a daughter!" he smiled and I sat back against the desk and wiped away the tears.
"Wait didnt you say you had a sister?"
"Mom remarried but he died when I was four and she stayed with us"
"So she's not your real sister?"
"No but I miss her and love her all the same"
"I guess since you're my daughter that makes you Kyle's sister. You remember Kyle from Beth's cabin?"
"Yeah" I nodded "Wait he's my brother? Wow!" I gasped "I want to go back out to Arizona and spend time with him. I've never had a brother before" I said with a grin
"Dont you want to spend time with me?" he looked a little saddened. It wouldnt hurt to hang around with him. He was probably lonely as hell.
"Okay sure. Kyle can wait, I'm going to spend time with my dad" I grinned as I said dad and he smiled and it reached his eyes. I was told once that if a person smiled and it went to their eyes then they were really happy.
"So what do you want to do?"
"Anything but swimming" I said firmly and he just raised an eyebrow "Nothing. Come on how about bowling? You do have bowling in this town... mom used to take..." I trailed off when his eyes lost that look
"I'm sorry. You must miss your mom a lot"
"I dont really. I only spent six years with her and even then she wasnt around. After Jerry died well it went downhill and I hardly saw her. I dont want that to be the same with you"
"I sort of neglected Kyle and I left without really truly knowing him. I was so wrapped up in this alien stuff I lost my wife and my son"
"But you gained a daughter and you learnt that you shouldnt make those mistakes. You have learnt havent you?"
"Yes in the worst possible way"
"Why what happened?" I asked curiously
"About thirteen or fourteen years ago Kyle got shot. I blamed myself for it and Max, Liz's husband, healed him like Alex did with you. He was changed like you were and he got powers like the aliens. I was shot about a year later and I was healed. I guess we're all different now so if you need any help with your powers I can give it to you"
"Actually dad I'm fine with my powers. I've had them for a long time now and I was trained to use the physical ones I never told them about the mental ones. That's how I got out"
"Oh well shall we get going?" he suggested and we stood up "Maybe we can swing round the cafe and borrow some of Liz's old clothes since you're pretty much the same height"
"Okay thanks Dad" I smiled and that warmth hit his eyes again. It made me feel happy too. We walked along the street and the sun was shining, I linked arms with him and looked him in the eye just to make sure that this was okay. If it was possible I think he smiled even more.
The cafe he was talking about was quaint and very alien themed. I wondered how could anyone grow up in a place like this? But then I shrugged realising I was one of the little three feet tall green men.
"Morning Jim how are you? The usual is it?" asked an older man with greying at his temples
"Yeah and whatever my daughter would like" he smiled and patted my back.
"Daughter? I didnt know you had a daughter"
"Neither did I. Michelle must have left pregnant"
"Well it's nice to meet you..."
"Serena. Serena Valenti" I introduced myself and for the first time in my life I was glad I was me.

Summary: Old Clothes, Bowling and Tabasco and M&Ms.

"Well that's the reason we're here. Serena has no clothes what so ever, I was wondering if she could borrow some of Liz's old clothes"
"Sure Jim why dont you go upstairs and have a look?"
"Thanks Mr Evans" I said "It is Evans right?"
"No it's Parker but I guess it's an easy mistake to make right?"
"Sorry sir" I nodded and I headed upstairs with my dad. My dad can you believe it!
"So um do you want to have a look on your own or do you need any help"
"To be honest, dad, I've never wore things like this. I can't remember how to get dressed, I've put these scrubs on every day for the last ten years. I dont know how buttons or zips work and I cant tie shoe laces. I've been walking round barefoot" he looked down and saw my dirty toes.
"Oh Serena um here sit down and I'll go see if I can find something to clean up your feet" he disappeared and I stood up and went to the wardrobe where a few olds clothes hung. I opened the draw and saw something I've never seen before. I lifted it up and looked at it curiously. Dad came back in
"I found a flannel I hope this is..." he trailed off when he saw me standing there with the black thing in my hands
"Dad what's this?"
"It's a thong Serena" he said and I looked at it
"I take it that it's clothing but where does it go?"
"I didnt think Liz even owned things like that!" he pulled the thing out of my hands and shoved it back into the draw.
"Here I'll clean up your feet then we'll put some socks on you and then get you dressed okay?"
"Thanks dad" he smiled as I sat down on the bed and he washed the desert dirt off my feet. He pulled a pair of pink and red socks out of the draw and put them on my feet.
"Right do you want to chose something to wear?"
"I like this shirt. It looks really pretty" it was a little pink strappy top but he seemed a little possesive.
"How about the turtleneck?" he suggested
"Turtleneck? Oh how horrible! I wont wear that!" I gasped in shock. Who could make a jumper out of turtle skin that was just horrible.
"No it's wool. It's not a turtle, it's just a name for it"
"Oh I see" I said feeling a little embarassed. I took off my shirt and his eyes went wide and he turned his back to me. He handed me the jumper over his shoulder and turned round when I had it on.
"Why did you turn round?" I asked him curiously
"Um you werent wearing anything underneath that shirt"
"Am I supposed to?" I inquired and he nodded
"You're supposed to wear a bra. It's what women wear"
"What do men wear instead of bras? Is women are supposed to wear bras then what do men wear over their chests?"
"Um they dont wear anything"
"That doesnt sound fair. I dont want to wear anything if men dont have to" I pouted. He just shrugged and pulled out a pair of jeans
"Do you have anything on under those scrub pants?" he asked before handing me the jeans"
"No"
"Well here" he pulled out something that looked like the thong only lighter and it wasnt made of lace "They're called Panties and we were them under our trousers"
"Men do to?"
"Yes"
"How do I put them on?" I asked
"Well this label goes at the back. You put your left leg in this hole and your right in that one then you pull them up till they can't go any higher"
"Okay" he turned and I took off my pants and put on the panties and did the same with the jeans.
"How do I fasten these dad?" he turned round and showed me how to fasten them then I sat on the bed as he tied my laces on my sneakers.
"So can we go bowling now dad?"
"Sure. I'll just have to make a quick stop and tell Hansen and the other deputies that I'm going to get off since everything is quiet"
"Okay. Should I wait downstairs for you?"
"Yes if you want" he nodded and I went back down stairs and into the cafe. Mr Parker clapped as I walked in and I did a twirl
"You look very good!" he cheered and I blushed and sat down on a stool. I picked up a menu and began to read it
"Are you hungry Serena?"
"Me? I'm starving!"
"What would you like to eat?"
"A cheese burger" I said with a grin "I always wanted to know what a cheese burger tasted like but I never was allowed to eat one"
"Okay a cheese burger coming up"
"With extra cheese and could I have some M&Ms, I used to eat them when I was little"
"Sure um here, I used to keep a supply for Maria but when she left I kept added to the supply in case she would ever come back"
"Is Maria your other daughter?"
"No she used to work here and she disappeared with my daughter Liz over sixteen years ago"
"I'm sorry" he handed me the M&Ms and I tried one but it tasted tasteless. It had no flavour what so ever. I reached for the trusty bottle of Tabasco on the counter and poured a big dose into the little bag and held it shut and shook it so it would mix around. I reached in and ate one and I smiled as it tasted like it should.
Dad came back just as Mr Parker was giving me my extra cheesy burger and I had to go
"Dad my burger!" I pouted
"Dont worry I can put it in a bag for you"
"Thanks Jeff" he said and then he handed it to me and I grinned
"Thanks Mr P" I said as I turned and walked away with dad.
"So have you ever gone bowling before?"
"When I was little and before..."
"Okay well I hope you enjoy it!" he said as we drove to the Bowlerama. I got out and he paid for us and I had to put on this different shoes that were all horrible and sticky and sweaty inside. Dad fastened the laces and I found it easier to play this time since I was taller. I jumped up and down when I knocked all the pins down.
"Dad! Dad! Did you see! I knocked them all over!" I cheered and he hugged me
"Well done Serena. He took a turn and he only knocked over half of them, I lifted my hand slightly and the rest fell down.
"Well done dad!" I bounced in my seat and I got up and pulled out a Tabasco M&M and ate it then picked up my ball and swung it down the lane. I only knocked three over and I stamped my foot and the rest fell down.
"Waaay" I jumped up and down and I wrote down our score. We were doing really good and I soon got sleepy. It was getting late and I began to get bored. Dad got up and took his go and I went off and found some people playing a game with lots of balls on a table and big sticks that poked them. I watched for a moment at a table and then the guy playing looked up at me and smirked.
"Hey sexy!"
"My name isnt Sexy it's Serena dumbo" I snickered and he just grinned
"I like you Serena you got attitude. Something I like in a girl" he said and he shot another ball into the hole "Do you want to play me?" he asked
"I never played this before"
"First time at pool? Wow we are so playing together" he said and he handed me a stick and finished the game and got all the balls out of the holes in the table and lined them up.
"Can I break first?" he asked and I just nodded not really knowing what he was talking about. He aimed at the balls and knocked the white one into the colours and sent them every where.
"Right now it's your turn. You hit the white ball with the cue and trick and put one of the coloured balls into a pocket" it didnt seem that hard so I leaned over the table and I sensed him standing behind me. I aimed at the white ball and I looked round the table for a moment and then I sunk a red. I moved to the next ball and sunk that too
"You're good" he whispered leaning over me. He touched my butt and I missed
"Hey that wasnt fair you cheated!"
"You missed sexy" he goated and I threw the stick down on the table. I went to walk off but he grabbed hold of my arm
"How about a date sexy" I let go and saw dad coming towards us with worry and a hint of anger in his eyes.
"Dad!" I called trying to get my hand away from this no good guy. Dad came up the steps and stood by me. The guy let go of my hand
"Were you harrasing my daughter Scheinin?" he demanded
"No sir"
"He called me sexy and wanted me to go out on a date. He touched my butt"
"He did did he?"
"She's lying"
"I dont lie" I said clearly "Not to my dad"
"Stay away from my daughter or I'll arrest you. I believe you still have unpaid parking tickets. I can pound your ride Scheinin" he just glared at the guy and put his arm around my back and we went to the counter to get my shoes.
"I think it's time I took you home"
"What did that guy mean about a date?" I asked him
"He's trying to get into your panties Serena" he said exasperated
"He can have them I dont want them they're uncomfortable" I said and he just laughed. I got my shoes back and he tied the laces and I ate my burger. I saw his house and it looked really cool there was a box in front of a couch and a table and I looked round and saw a kitchen and there were three bedrooms.
"Wow this place is really good"
"Here you can have Kyle's old room if you want" I looked in and found posters of nearly naked women on the walls. There was a copy of Busty Biker Babes under a geometry book and I looked at him.
"He was a little wild. I'll get rid of those in a minute" he promised me and I nodded. I saw there were a few girls clothes in the wardrobe.
"I didnt know he had clothes like this" I said lifting a dress out of the cupboard and holding it against me.
"It was Tess's"
"Oh who was she? Is she my sister?"
"No she died a long time ago before you were born"
"Oh" I put the dress back and kicked off my sneakers
"Do you want to watch some TV while I call for Pizza?"
"Can I cook something dad?"
"You can cook?"
"Like a fiend!" I said as I went into the kitchen and opened the cupboards. Soon we were sitting on the couch with Spanish omelettes and watching something dad called Soap Opera. It was a boring story about some people and the girl kept screaming at the girl and then there was laughter but it wasnt the people laughing.
"Well" said dad as he put his plate on the table and I did the same "I think it's time for bed" he switched the telly off and I went and settled in my brothers old room. That was my first proper day with my dad. I wished that night that there would be lots more like it.

Summary: Second day with(out) Dad.

I woke up early in the morning to sunlight against my face. I jumped up and looked round. A half naked girl grinned back at me from the wall. I finally remembered and I pulled down the poster. I padded to kitchen and dad jumped
"Serena!" he gasped dropping his spoon and spraying milk all over the place.
"What?"
"You're supposed to wear clothes when you go to bed"
"I know but I couldnt find any after I had taken off my clothes I had already been wearing" he pulled his shirt off quick and handed it to me.
"Go and put some of those old girls clothes on"
"But I dont know how to dad"
"Well at least put some panties on!" he shooed me off back to my room and I couldnt find any panties in the drawyer so I put on some boxers instead. They were much comfier that those stupid things I had worn yesterday. I pulled on some socks like I was shown and I managed to get everything I on but not fastened and I came out and he was wearing a new shirt.
"Hey could you fasten up my pants dad?"
"Sure" he grinned and I joined him at the table
"So what are we doing today?"
"I have work"
"Cool what's that like"
"Dangerous and you can't come with me" he said shortly
"Why not?" I asked upset
"Because my job is dangerous and it's not a place for you"
"Why not? I know how to disarm any guy that threatens me. I have been trained up in every common martial art since I was six. I can handle myself"
"I still dont want you going"
"Fine you're my dad and I should listen to you" I said with a shrug "Maybe I can watch some TV. You dont mind if I do my exercises in the living room do you? It's sort of been programmed into me and frankly I dont mind them. It keeps me fit"
"Sure" I went through and pushed the couch out the way and did a hand stand. I began to do press ups on my hands and dad walked past and gasped when he saw me
"Serena..."
"Hi... uh dad... you dont mind... me doing this do you?"
"Um no I no" he just looked surprised more than anything. After I had finished twenty I began my stretches and he left
"I'll be back later if you want anything to eat head to the CrashDown because even though you can cook like a fiend I dont want to come home to a burnt house"
"Okay dad" he came back and handed me a twenty
"This should be more than enough to get some dinner for you? Dinner is normally at twelve but whatever..."
"Okay bye dad" I kissed his cheek and hugged him then he left.
I sat around bored stiff for a while then I decided to explore. I wanted to go out and learn this town.
I fastened my shoes as best a could but then I got fed up of a poor job and pulled the laces out and waved my hand and they were slip ons. I nodded proudly to myself and headed out.
I didnt have a key to get back into the place but it didnt really matter coz I could always get in with a flick of my wrist.
I wandered along till I came to the downtown area of Roswell. There was a building opposite the Crash and I wanted to know what it was. I carefully crossed the road, cars still bug the hell out of me, and went in. It was dark inside and I wasnt sure if I liked it. I had to go down some steps and found that it was a museum of sorts. I looked round there were dead aliens on the table. This was a horrible place!
"Are you okay?" I turned round and saw a young girl standing there with the name tag "Sydney" on it.
"I'm fine I never really expected to find a place like this"
"First time in Roswell?"
"Yeah" I nodded shyly
"This is my museum. My dad owned it but he went off on one of his abductions and never came back. That was about a year ago"
"Oh I'm sorry"
"Dont be he was a good man" she looked down then after a few minutes looked back up and smiled at me "So are you new in town? You dont look like a tourist"
"I'm living with my dad. I spent a lot of time on my own coz my mom was never around and so I went in search for him"
"Wow so who is your dad?"
"Sheriff Valenti" she choked on her breath and I had to pat her on the back
"You're Kyle's sister?" she asked
"Yeah"
"Do you know?" she asked and I looked at her slantways
"Know what?" I replied curiously
"About them" she turned and looked at the display with an alien lying on the table.
"Yes"
"I was sick as a little girl. I had cancer and one night I was lying in my hospital bed in Phoenix and an angel appeared. He was really handsome and he made the cancer go away. I saw him a few times and I know he lives in Roswell. He was the guy who ran off with that Parker Girl"
"So you're like me"
"How so?"
"You're angels son helped me. I was about to die from a fatal car acar accident. I was taken in by the FBI and spent the last few years in their capture. I broke out a few days ago"
"Why did they hold you?"
"Because I'm different. I am like your angel now"
"You're like my angel? You're just like me..."

Summary: A surprising visitor.

I had lunch with Sydney in her office. She told me all about her dad and how sometimes he would go missing for a few weeks leaving her alone. She knew that it was to do with the alien thing going on, but still she was worried for him.
"Well it's almost four o'clock. I can't believe I stayed all day!"
"Neither can I!" she grinned "So um do you want to come round again tomorrow? I might need some help getting the Foo Fighters Display up"
"Oh sure I would love to" I smiled and shook her hand "It was nice meeting you Sydney Davis" I gathered up my jacket and my little beaker of lemonade I got when we got order out from the Crashdown.
"Bye Serena" I waved and climbed the stairs and found the sun was just starting to set.
I walked quickly along and got back to an empty house. I put the lights on and put my jacket on the back of the couch. I went and opened the fridge and got out some vegetables. I know he said dont cook but I could handle a fire if it broke out and I havent had a fire since I was eight.
I cut them up and put the oven on. I took out the turkey pieces that were just begging to be apart of a master piece.
I heard the door open and I smiled I flicked on the radio and began bopping around the kitchen.
"Dad I hope you like... OMG!" I dropped the carrots and I bent to pick them up quickly. He did too and I stood up and let him do it
"Serena is my dad letting you stay?"
"Kyle..." I looked up at him and then the door opened for the second time and in walked Dad with a woman I have never seen before
"Dad! Amy!" grinned Kyle
"Kyle what are you doing here?"
"I came to see how you're doing. Max and Michael got back and the girls finally stopped freaking out"
"Good" I stood there feeling really out of place "Look Kyle there's something you need to know"
"Somehow I get the feeling I dont want to know what it is"
"Should I go into the living room and let you guys talk?"
"No Amy, you're a part of this now" he said taking her hand.
"Dad?" I whispered trying to get some focus back on me. Kyle turned round and looked at me
"Dad?" he asked confused "Dont tell me you're adopting the strays now dad"
"Your mom was pregnant when she left" he blurted out and Kyle looked like he had just been kicked in the stomach
"She... Serena she's my sister isnt she?"
"Yes" he nodded
"And she lived with mom... she... I have to be alone right now" Kyle disappeared into his room and locked the door.
"Dad?"
"What's burning?" asked Amy and I raced back to the kitchen in time to watch the dinner go up in smoke.
"Ah damn" I cursed and he came in and help me clear up
"Dont worry honey I brought Pizza" he said and Amy came in
"So she's your daughter?"
"Yes she is"
"Well that makes her my step-daughter then doesnt it. I'm Amy sorrow we didnt meet right away I was away at a convention"
"Nice to meet you Amy" I nodded and then I looked to the hallway where Kyle's room was. He was my older brother and he hated me.
"Are you going to do dinner?" I asked and I got a nod from both of them and they began to move around the kitchen. I left them to it and headed to Kyle's bedroom. I knocked quietly on the door
"Kyle?" I asked and the door flung open and and big strong arms wrapped around me in a hug
"Just know I'll always love you baby sister" he sobbed into my hair and he pulled me in and locked the door again "I've always wanted to know if I had step brothers or sisters. I hated mom for leaving, what she did hurt me a lot. I thought she didnt want me... but you she had you! I can't believe it!" he grinned and hugged me again
"I can't believe you're my brother"
"I know this is a small world... so how are you coping?"
"Oh with the white room? It actually wasnt that bad, they just wanted me to work and do all this stuff they didnt hurt me if that's why you're thinking"
"Good"
"So I dont even know what to ask you"
"I like to cook... if that helps and I love bowling"
"I used to be on a bowling team"
"You did?"
"Yeah back before I left town"
"Cool maybe we could play sometime?"
"Yeah I'd like that" he agreed "So you can cook?"
"Pretty good actually, you gave me a little bit of a surprise when you came in like that. I was thrown off guard and I dropped the carrots you went to help me and it was a little too much"
"I'm sorry"
"No you didnt know at the time that we were brother and sister. It was just a little shocking"
"I know the feeling. Finding out you're my sister it's kind of mind-blowing"
"So how long are you staying? I know you dont live here anymore coz you're always off and everything"
"I came home. I left my suitcase by the door, dad's been watching town like a hawk and he's sure the FBI have given up and pulled out and anyone I have enough gifts to fake my alienhood"
"So you're staying permanently?"
"Yes"
"Damn!" I groaned
"You dont want me to stay?"
"No it's not that... whose going to get the bed?" he burst out laughing and dad called us out for dinner. They were nestled up on the couch with plates in hands.
"Yours are in the kitchen" we decided to skip their lovey dovey action evening and sat in the kitchen talking.
"So what's the worse thing about dad being married to Amy?" I asked trying to get a start on the game.
"The mornings. Sometimes when I came home for a week or so I would wake up and she would be there and she is not a morning person. It's even worse when Maria comes too"
"Maria?"
"She's Amy's daughter. Our step sister"
"Cool"
"She's married so we have a step-brother in law going by the name of Michael" he said as he sipped his coffee. I got out the icecream and we settled down and began a deep and meaningful.
"So how did you find out about the aliens? I heard you were healed"
"Oh yeah it was Beth's son wasnt it?"
"Yeah"
"I was playing with my Vanessa. We'd been friends for about a month and I was playing with her on her front lawn. Ball rolled out onto road me went with it and then big splat"
"Ouch" he had a trace of worry in his eyes
"Alex healed me. I got taken into the white room and little after that"
"I'm glad you're okay" he patted my hand "I would have been devasted if I had never known you"
"I know but we do and you owe me a bowling match!" he laughed whole heartedly and I stood up and yawned.
"I'm going to go to bed now Serena..."
"Okay" I nodded and he disappeared. I went into the bathroom and changed into that shirt dad gave me this morning and went and found him curling up under the blanket. I climbed on near the wall and pulled the blanket over me.
The next morning I woke up to a warm arm around my waist and blue eyes staring back at me
"Morning Kyle" I said with a grin
"What are you doing in my bed?" he asked
"I'm lying down what does it look like. Sheesh you've spent a life on the outside and you can't tell a person lying down when you see one?" he just looked at me with mirth in his eyes.
"PILLOW FIGHT!" I yelled and pulled the pillow out from under his head and whapped him in the face
"Hey no fair! That's the only pillow!" he bellowed and he dived at my middle and began tickling me senseless.
"Stop! Stop I surrender!" I begged and I tipped my head back trying to get away. I saw the figure standing there
"That's good to know" he shot Kyle with a tranq and I screamed as he fell off me and hit the floor.
"Get away from me!" I hissed and I saw other SWAT cops behind him moving through the house
"Awe that's not very nice for your dear old dad" he lifted the gun and shot me with a tranq. It landed in my throat and things went black.

I woke up in a small room, I remembered this room all too well. This was the place I put when I was naughty when I had done something wrong. Somehow it looked smaller than I remembered. I looked round panicked and saw the camera in the corner. They were watching me and now since I was here I was thinking that they never stopped.
"What have you done with my family!" I screeched loudly it hurt as my voice bounced off the thick white walls. It was too bright, too clean and too much like home. I didnt want this to be my home. I slid into the corner where the walls met and buried my head in my knees and wrapped my arms around my legs and sobbed. I wanted to get out, I wanted to be free.
"Please let me go" I looked up at the camera "Please" the door opened with a loud sucking noise and I tried to move further back against the wall. He walked in proud and smug
"You thought you'd be able to get away from us Serena" he crouched down near me and pulled a tuft of my messed hair out of the ponytail. Then he pulled out a single strand and showed it to me
"You see this? This has your DNA, this makes you different. It makes you a monster"
"No it makes me an alien! I know the difference now!" I spat in his face "You're not my father. I know who my family is!"
"That guy and the Sheriff? I had no idea that a monster was running around controling things. I should have never let it get this bad, I should have known when his son disappeared. I bet once the tests come back he's just as much a freak as you are. A whole family of monsters"
"Drop dead!" I snapped angrily wishing I hadnt had the needle removing my powers.
"That's no way to treat the man who raised you over the years. I'm like a father to you"
"You will never be my father!" I roared
"I know and you're right" he looked up at the camera and nodded.
Guards came in and I tried to struggle but they picked me up by my arms and legs. I was taken into a new room, they must have got another grant, I had never seen before and strapped to a table at an angle. They left the room leaving me alone with him. The light on the camera blinked out signifying that it had been switched off. I held my breath as the door was locked and he began unbuckling his pants
"It's a good job that you dont see me as a father figure. If you did then I wouldnt be able to do this"
"Why are you doing this?" I whispered as his pants came down leaving him in dark blue checked boxers.
"Because you're the first girl we've captured and you're ovualating. You're a grown up alien" he said and I closed my eyes. This wasnt happening. Please somebody come and save me!
I opened my eyes and he was still there watching me as he took off his jacket. He'd lost his socks and shoes along with his pants. I began to shake in fear. I wasnt sure what he was going to do to me but I really didnt want him to be naked. I didnt want to see him naked, it felt wrong and violating like that guy from the bowling alley only worse. He pulled his tie over his head and took his shirt off. I opened my eyes and he was almost naked sans the boxers. I watched frozen as he reached out and took a pair of scissors and began to cut up my hospital pants. The cloth fell away and I think I began to cry, I felt wet on my cheeks and I was getting weak in my stomach. He did the same with my shirt, cut it right up the middle then along the sleeves. I was fully naked and he smirked happy with making me like this.
"Good" he said quickly and then put the scissors back on the tray and reached down and removed his boxers and took hold of his penis. He stroked it a bit then moved closer to me
"This is going to be real good"
"Please dont do this to me!" I begged
"I have orders Serena. I screw and I get a raise" he said his breath hot against my cheek and I turned away. I didnt want to see the sight of him. He lined himself up with me and slammed into me. I cried out in pain and he moved quickly. It hurt, he was hurting me. I wanted someone to make it stop... please anyone...
"Stop" I begged "help!" I cried but no one could hear me. Why did I deserve this? What had I done? This is my fault I thought as my body went numb and he just kept rutting against me. I felt broken and misused. I thought about why I was here and short and simple it was my fault. I had ran out to get that stupid ball, I had slipped up and this was my punishment. I zoned out and just lay there and prayed he'd finish and leave me alone.
"Yeah uh" he groaned as he pounded into me. My world came spinning back and he slammed up one more time before he stiffened. It felt as though there was more inside now. He sighed and slumped over me
"Get off me" I said through clenched teeth "You've done what you were ordered to now leave me alone" I ordered and he picked up a blanket and threw it over me. He got dressed quickly and turned to look at me
"The docs are going to get you cleaned up and then you're going in with that Brother of yours" I thought to Kyle. He would be angry, I didnt want him to see me like this.
"No I dont want to see him"
"Tough" he snapped then left. The doctors came in a few moments later and cleaned the blood away from my legs and put me in fresh clothes. I didnt want to let go of the blanket because I felt cold all of a sudden.
I was led along the corridor to my old room. Kyle was pacing and I was put in with a shove. His arms wrapped around me in some sort of comfort but I stiffened. It was too male... I shook my head as the tears started
"Serena?" he took my head in his hands "Serena what did they do to you?"
"He took his clothes off and my clothes off and then he..." I didnt even know what it was he did. I had never been taught about that.
"Did he force himself on you Serena?" he asked in a whisper. His eyes showing anger and sadness. I sobbed and nodded. He looked down away from me then moved away from me. He pressed his head against the wall then suddenly yelled out in anger and punched the wall. I jumped and he shook his cut knuckles and came back over to me. He put his arms around me and led me to the bed.
"I'm sorry Rena. I'm sorry that they hurt you" he whispered. I fell asleep in his arms feeling only an ounce of safety in this horrid, dangerous place.

Summary: Inside my broken mind...
Rating: The last rating still applies. So beware and have tissues ready.
A/note: This is very hard writing... I can't stop crying at the shower part I'm writing at the moment. Tissues may very well be needed.

It was dark and there was a constant shrill scream that echoed through out. I had never seen this place before and it was extremely scary. I looked through the darkness and a spot lit up showing a girl standing there naked screaming her eyes out and crying. There was a man standing over her and he looked angry.
"Shut up!" he backhanded her and she fell down her cries ceasing through out the darkness. The scene began to fade and I saw myself older and more worn. I looked about twenty and I could feel that I was tired and felt so old like I couldnt go on anymore. I saw myself alone and I took my last breath...
I sat up and screamed so loud, just like the girl in my dream... I had never had a dream so terrifying. I paused for breath then I continued to scream.
I fell from the bed as Kyle jerked awake. I scrabbled round trying to find a way to get out. I was hysterical. I was scratching at the walls and wailing like a banshee.
"Sere... Serena!" Kyle rushed over and tried to hold me still in his arms but I shoved him away
"No!" I protested "No!"
"Serena calm down it's okay!"
"NO! I CAN'T DIE IN THIS PLACE!" I turned and looked at him and he froze wide eyed. I continued scratching and I felt his arms around me
"I wont let you die" he promised me and I leaned back against his chest and buried my head in my hand.
"I saw myself die. I was alone, Kyle, so alone"
"I'm here. I wont leave you"
"I'll die alone... you're going to leave me. I'm going to die in this place Kyle"
"I wont leave you... Isabel dreamwalked me... she does every once in a while and I told her. The others will get us out I promise you" he lifted me up in his arms and he carried me back to bed.
"Get some sleep. We'll be leaving soon I promise you" he kissed my forehead and I settled down into an uncontrollable sob.
I closed my eyes and I saw a woman I have never seen before
"I dont know how it worked, I've never been able to get a thing out of my dream before" she said
"Who are you?" I asked from my dark corner. She floated towards me bringing the light with her
"I'm Isabel... Kyle gave me a mental image of you and I woke up and my coffee table was covered in that mental image. I'm going to try something Serena" she reached out and the light enveloped me. I closed my eyes to protect myself against it. It faded soon and I was standing in a room I had never seen before
"Am I dreaming?" I whispered I looked round and Kyle was gone "Kyle!" the lamp on the side table blew up "WHERE IS MY BROTHER!" I yelled
"Kyle is back in the white room!"
"I want my brother! You're evil!"
"No I'm one of his friends. I'll get Kyle out now"
"And my dad! Please!"
"Okay" she did as I asked and soon they began to appear out of thin air.
"Whoa what happened?" Isabel opened her eyes and fell down on the floor "Isabel?" Kyle moved over and helped her up
"Serena..." dad ran and hugged me "Is she okay?"
"I'm fine" she panted "Just a little worn out"
"I'm going to take her upstairs so she can rest" said Kyle as he lifted her up in his arms
"Serena are you going to be okay without me for a while?"
"Yeah sure... I... I'll talk to dad"
"Tell him about what they did to you..." he said with anger in his eyes "I'll make them pay I swear. They're as good as dead" he disappeared and dad turned my head away from the stairs
"Serena?" he said looking deep into my eyes "What did they do to you?"
"Kyle called it rape... he..." I looked away as the tears filled up in my eyes
"They hurt my baby?" he said hoarse "They hurt you?" I nodded and he let go of my head and pulled me into a big hug
"I'm sorry Serena. So sorry" he told me and he sucked in a sharp breath. He was crying too "This is all my fault I'm sorry baby"
"Daddy it's not your fault!" I told him but he just held me closer
"I'll kill them. I'll kill them all" he promised me. I knew it was a promise, for I have never heard such a stronger sentence of words that made me feel comfort.
The phone rang and dad answered it
"Hello? Max yeah no we're fine yeah Isabel got us out. She used her dreamwalk... did you know she could pull things out of dreams? No yeah we're all out I dont know about Amy is she safe? Tell her that we're fine then thank god she's okay. Serena? They... they raped my baby girl" I looked down. I needed some fresh air, air that didnt stink of chemicals and them. I opened the door and felt the chill of Canadian weather during winter. I shut the door behind me and stood there in my bare feet on the porch. I shivered and the door opened Kyle came out and pulled me inside
"You should rest"
"I can't. I only sleep for two hours each night" I smiled at him "I wish I slept more. I dont know what I want anymore. I... I... oh oh my god" I whispered as something stirred inside me.
"Serena what is it?" I looked up at him and turned and ran up the stairs and found the bathroom. I slammed the door shut and hurled up in the toilet. I looked down at my stomach, how could this happen? How could they do this to me? The lock on the door clicked and dad and Kyle both came in.
"Baby what's wrong?" asked dad as he had taken to calling me.
"I... Daddy I feel pregnant" I told him with a sob as I sat there looking up at them. The bile rose in my throat and I threw up again. He dropped the phone and I could the voice over it.
"Sheriff?" I heard it over and over again as I hurled
"Oh god" said Kyle. Dad regained himself and picked up the phone and moved down the hall but I could still hear him talking.
"She's pregnant Max. Those bastards raped her and now she's fucking pregnant!" Kyle knelt down near me as I sobbed. I felt so dirty all of a sudden. So dirty and used I wanted to get clean so badly.
"Kyle help me" I whispered as I turned on the shower and began tugging at my clothes I grabbed the scrubbing brush off the floor and switched on the water. Kyle just watched as I began scrubbing at my skin
"Make it go away! Make it go away!" I screamed and dad came back in
"Kyle stop her!" he yelled as he tried to pry the brush from my hands
"No I'm so dirty! I have to make the dirt go away. I can still feel him on me!" I sniffed "I feel so horrible dad. So horrible please make it go away, make me feel better. I dont want bad anymore" he grabbed the towel and slung it round me
"I'll make it better. I promise I'll make it better baby" he whispered as he helped me out of the shower and held me close "I wont let anyone hurt you again" I wanted to tell him not to lie.

But the tears were silent inside you see
I lay there quiet, watched you have your way with me
I might have cried, the tears were silent inside
You see
You called me names, made me feel like I was dumb

I didn't feel a thing and now I'm gone, gone, gone
Like a battered child I got used to your pain
But you know its cuz

I was weak before now you made me so numb

Said now I'm numb, numb, numb
No, no, no, no

I slept for a few days and when I woke up and went downstairs there were a few people I had never seen before. Amy was there and Beth her Alex and Evie but I had no idea who the rest were. I crept down onto the top step of the stair and watched them for a moment. Dad kept pacing and shouting angrily and Kyle was leaning against the wall with his arms around his upper body. The mood was tense and it was obvious they were talking about me. Amy was hugging a blonde woman who was holding a baby in her arms.
"What are we going to do about her?" asked a guy Beth was firmly planted on his lap
"Do about her?" snapped dad
"That's my daughter we're talking about!"
"Yeah Evans and that's my sister" snapped Kyle "Don’t talk about her like that. You don’t know what she's been through"
"Hey I was in the white room too!" he protested
"Yeah for one day she was in there for ten years and you weren't raped!" he snapped angrily. I continued down the rest of the stairs and stood in the foot of the stairs watching them
"So you're Serena then?" asked a gruff guy holding another baby "I'm Michael, your sort of brother in law" all eyes turned to me.
"My brother in law?" I asked
"He's my son in law" said Amy. "He married my daughter and I married your father. Maria is your step sister and Michael is your brother in law, you're an aunt as well"
"Are you okay?" asked Alex as he stood up and came over to me "I'm fine. I'll be fine"
"Are you sure?" asked dad and I nodded. He let me sit down in the spare seat and nobody talked.
“So what’s the plan? Are you going to make my decisions for me as well?” I asked a little angrily
“No Serena” began Evans “That’s not what we’re doing. The choice is up to you”
“And what is the choice? Why are you making me decide?”
“About your baby. You’re only sixteen and you’re pregnant” said Evans a little distastefully as he gave me the look over
“Yes and that’s through no fault of my own. They strapped me down for god sake!” I yelled and the tears welled up
“Show some compassion, Man” said Michael as I tried to calm myself from tears
“Sorry”
“I’m going to keep the baby. I know it seems like a stupid ide..ee…a” I gasped and fell off the chair onto the floor
“Serena!” gasped Alex who jumped up and knelt beside me. I looked down and there was a handprint on my shirt. My baby was trying to communicate with me. Alex went to put his hand over the print but Michael stopped him
“No don't!” he yelled “Only the parents can connect with the baby. The baby is growing sure enough but it develops attributes off it’s parents who connect with it. If you connect with the baby then you’ll be its father” Evans grabbed Alex by the collar
“No son of mine is going to have a kid” Alex shrugged him off and glared at him. He took my hand and pressed both of ours over the handprint.
I felt a blast all over and then I saw him. I saw our little son, Alex had stood against his father to make that monsters son his own. Our baby was safe and he removed our hands but he kept hold of mine
"This entire thing is because of me. If I never healed you after that car accident you wouldnt have suffered"
"If you didnt heal me I wouldnt be here today I'd be dead. I wouldnt have a child, we wouldnt have a child and you would be alone" he smiled and the others were forgotten for a moment
"In that moment as I watched that car hit you after you'd been playing I just knew I couldnt let you die. It just seemed so wrong and since then I've never wanted another soul like I do you"
"Ahum" said dad and I looked to him. Alex still had hold of my hand and kissed it gently to remind me that we were all we needed.
"Son you're only sixteen"
"I was six when I fell in love dad and that's been with me for the last ten years" his dad still looked rather annoyed
"Like father like son" said Beth and we all turned to look at her "I guess he found his soul mate"
"No no no! None of that soul mate crap! She's my sister!" snapped Kyle
"He's saved her life twice Kyle and now he's preparing to have a family with her. Yes I do believe they a little young but I was eighteen when I got married to Max. Eighteen and we were in love for three years before that" she said and Kyle nodded
"I just dont want her to get hurt. She's been through so much" said Kyle
"And you think I would hurt her?" snapped Alex angrily. I pulled my hand away from him. I stood up and he looked up at me
"Serena"
"I need some time alone" I said quickly I began to walk out and dad went to follow me but I put my hand up gesturing for him to stay. I needed to figure this out on my own. I know they were watching from the windows, I know that they werent expecting what I did.
I walked out into the desert some space away from the house and raised my hands up in the air and the sand went up with it. It flew so high that it almost buried me where I stood. I screamed with rage over having this done to me and them trying to make my decisions for me. I wanted to run and keep running and never look back.
I stayed out there for a full hour before I even thought of going back inside. I had to go and deal with them, they were my life now.

Title: Meet Serena Valenti
Author: BeccaBehr
Disclaimer: I own nothing, sadly!
Summary: Preparing for the baby.
A note: Kittens, Serena was tied down to the table and even if she wasnt she had been injected by the stuff that blocks her powers. It's what she got injected with when she was taken from the Valenti homestead.

I lay still staring at my moving stomach. Alex was sat right next to me staring at it too. He reached out as it moved and breathed in amazement
"He's so beautiful" he said finally. Kyle was sitting near the dresser watching the whole interaction.
"Are you okay?" we asked each other at the same time. He put his head down and rubbed his palms over his jeans
"I'm going to be an uncle" he said finally "I can't believe my little sister is going to have a baby" he stood up
"Kyle calm down"
"How can you say that? You were raped by that monster and now you're going to have his kid" he snapped Alex whipped his head round at him and glared
"He's my son! Mine and Serena's!" he yelled angrily his nostrils flaring "He'll never have children if I ever meet him!"
"Sorrreee" said Kyle sarcastically "I'm just worrying for my baby sister"
"I'm sorry I just can't see her being with anyone other than me and it's weird and when you say that he raped her it just makes me really angry" I patted his hand
"It's okay it's going to be just you and me from now on I promise" I smiled and he kissed my forehead.
"Okay no kissy face" said Kyle who began to pace
"Kyle at least he's just kissing me and not... well" I said briefly thinking back to that time in the white room. I shivered and I got kicked, he was playing football on my insides.
"Are you okay?" I heard from both of my guys. Kyle was one of my guys, he was my brother and he was always going to be there for me. I loved him just as much as I did... Alex. I smiled and turned to look at Alex
"I... I think" I sighed "I think I love you" I told him and his eyes glazed over
"You love... me?" he asked in disbelief as his eyes got misty for a moment "I've... I god I... I knew the first time I saw you playing when you were little. I've never loved anyone since, I will and forever more love you with all my heart and soul" we shared our first proper kiss. It was so good Kyle left the room.
Nobody would let me get up, I was dying for the bathroom but they kept saying it would hurt the baby or the baby might get knocked so I just lay there staring up at the ceiling. I got fed up and pointed a finger at the ceiling and began making shapes along it. I sighed and dropped my arm down when it got tired. I carefully rolled over and fell asleep.
I was thinking of the time in that room with him. I could see it clear as day and I walked up to it. He was still going at it with a big grin on his face.
"Stop it" I said coldly and he stopped and whipped round staring at me in disbelief. His pants were around his knees and I looked away in disgust. He zipped back up and I glared at him, the scene behind him faded to black leaving just me and him alone.
"What is this place?"
"You're dreaming" I said civilly time for punishment would come soon enough
"Is this your doing?"
"No I stumbled into this by accident" I said honestly "But I'm glad I'm here. All those years you made me practice my powers I spent almost as long practicing and perfecting my mental skills"
"You're here to kill me arent you?" he asked and I nodded he sighed in resolve.
"I'm here to say thank you" he looked up surprised
"Thank you?"
"Yes" I said calmly
"Why?"
"Because if I hadnt been put in the White Room I wouldnt have found my family. I wouldnt have been reunited with the man I'm going to spend the rest of my life with"
"They'll find you. The FBI will find you"
"They could try but I'm not ever going back to that place again. That I can assure you" he nodded
"You've become a brilliant alien. I'm a little proud that I had a part of it. So are you going to kill me now?" he asked sarcastically. I walked forward and put my hands at his temples
"Why are you letting me?" I asked him simple
"Because I'm human. I did a bad thing to you and now I have to pay" I stepped back for a moment and looked at him "Why arent you killing me? I deserve this!"
"I'm not a killer. I'm human too and I'm not going to be a murderer. You deserve everything that you get but I'm not killing you" he stood up and smiled
"I've underestimated you again. I'm sorry for hurting you, you're the most humane person I have ever met" he reached out his hand and I shook it.
"Goodbye... father" I said with a slight smile before the dream lit up from the dark room as he disappeared. I was in a field for of flowers and I was happy to walk through them.

I woke up with another wave of pain wash over me. I looked round and the girls were preparing the towels and there were a few bowls of hot water on the dresser.
"I'm scared" I whispered and Maria came over. She was my sister and she was going to help me through this. She took my hand and let me squeeze it as hard as I wanted
"It's going to be okay Serena. You can do this"
"I want my mommy" I whimpered. I know she hasnt been there for me but every kid wants their mommy. Amy came over and sat down next to me
"I'll help you through it too Serena"
"Mommy" I called reaching out for Amy and hugged her. She was my step mom and the only mom I'd truly known "You dont mind me calling you that do you?"
"No it makes me proud actually" I lay in the warmth of their gazes for a moment before the contractions started again. I screamed out as pain shot through me.
"ANY MAN WHO COMES ANYWHERE NEAR ME WITH SEX ON THE BRAIN WILL HAVE IT RIPPED OFF!" I yelled loudly so the entire house could hear. The baby was coming.
