Maria
Entering the oddly beautiful house, everyone takes a seat on the couches, while I remained standing near the door. I didn't know these people from a whole in the wall and if things got bad, I wanted to be able to make a quick exit.
Everyone, including myself, wore looks of complete bewilderment. What was happening? Who were Cameron and Adam? What was that stranger doing at the club tonight? All of these questions lingered unasked and unanswered, as we sat in complete silence.
My nausea returned with renewed vigor at the smell of the tea brewing in the kitchen. I closed my eyes and breathed deeply, hoping the feeling would pass when I hear someone ask,
"Maria, are you all right?"

"Are we certain we can trust them?" Isabel asks.
I shake my head. "No, we're not," I say. "That's why we're here. It looked like they were being attacked, although there could have been a good reason for that. But it also looked like the rest of you would have been hurt if that 'hunter' had won while you were all 'together' that way."
I shake my head again. I can't even describe what I was feeling but it was like they were linked. By stopping that guy, I was protecting my friends. And I'll do it again if it seems that they're in danger from Cameron and Adam.
"Maria, are you all right?" someone asks. I look over and see that she's still standing by the door, although she looks pale.
"You better sit down, Maria," I tell her, hoping she's not about to fall over. Looking around at the others, I ask. "Anybody-else feeling funny? Alex? Liz? What was going on with that circle?"

I ride with Teresa and Kyle, the ride is mercifully short as we are all a little tense. I'm trying not to be bothered that Liz went in the Evan's car, and I'm worried about what everything meant at the club, including Max using his powers like that in public. I want to talk to Kyle, but I don't know Teresa that well, and she would obviously be on Liz's side so I remain silent.
When we arrive at the house I'm amazed. I've lived in Roswell my whole life, and a house like that would be hard to miss, but I swear I can't remember seeing it. Cameroon explains that they don't use electricity much and Maria and I just look at each other with raised eyebrows. Mom has gotten good at changing fuses because we use so much electricity.
We are lead into a large den and all find places to sit or stand. I end up sitting next to Max on the sofa and although I think perhaps it would be better if I move, I know that would just draw attention and so I make myself sit still and relax. Isabel, never one to beat around the bush, gets right to the point Is everyone really alright? Are we certain we can trust them?
Max answers her while I look around at everyone else gathered here. My sister is standing by the door- knowing her she wants to make sure she has access to a good escape route. Looking closer however I realise she is a little green and breathing deeply. "Maria, are you all right?" I ask.
As Max tells her to sit I get up to give her my seat, looking through my bag for a bottle of lemon oil for its renewing properties, or lavender for it's relaxtion. Max asks the others it they feel alllright and as everyone nods he asks for an explanation of the circle.
Interested I look around at them, even while passing the oil under Maria's nose and rubbing the back of her neck with one hand.

I'm a little freaked as I sit here in this weird living room without lights. The candles only add to the surreal quality of the evening, and finding out that people I've know practically my whole life can throw someone across the room without touching them? Also carries a little freaking-factor.
I'm even a little weirded out by myself. I'm not sure where the chanting came from, or even how I knew I should wear that amulet tonight.
I feel so crazy I was even able to smile at Trevor when he talked to me, instead of going bright red like I normally do. Even though he called me by my hated nick-name, I still didn't clam up.
In some ways I think I'm going crazy though- not only everything that is happening, but I think I'm losing my memory too- I could swear that Liz was wearing a different necklace when we left the house, but there's no way she could have changed it, and she's wearing the same one I am now. So I try to blend into the flickering shadows and figure out what's going on without embarrassing myself in front of Tr- everyone.

Maria
As I take my sister's seat on the couch, I rest my head in my hand as I close my eyes. Somehow I would have thought that the alcohol's effects would have lessened by now, but alas.
Breathing deeply I catch a whiff of lavender and feel the gentle pressure of my sister's hand on the back of my neck. I whisper a soft "thank you" under my breath as my motherly sister tries to alleviate my discomfort. Within moments I'm feeling better, the lavender having calmed down my stomach and head, I open my eyes to look at Tess and nod. Tess returns the bottle to her purse as I lay back on the coach and ponder Max's question about the circle.
What was with the circle, I asked myself as I recalled this evenings events. And what was the deal with those glowing amulets? and what exactly did Max do to that creepy looking guy?
Above my strong desire to feel like my normal self, my second strongest desire was to get some answers. Answers about what happened tonight and what it all meant. Clearing my throat, I sit up and turn to face Max, who seems to have taken a leadership role and ask..
"Speaking of that circle, what exactly did you do to that guy Max?"

I'm glad to see that Maria seems to be looking a bit better, but as I wait for a response to my question, she turns the question back. I fake a pout as I glance at her. "Me? I ask you first!"
Okay, I know that sounds childish but I did ask first. We're all here because Cameron and her brother isolated Maria, Liz, Alex and Kyle for whatever strangeness she did with them. We're here in her house because of that. This is about them, not me.
Then again, Cameron had promised to explain things to them, so I know they don't completely know what's going on either. But it would be nice if they explained what they experienced...
As for what I'd done, well, it's obvious that I was going to have to explain to them sooner or later anyway, but I don't want to do it here. Cameron and Adam aren't in the room at the moment but that doesn't mean they can't overhear us and I still don't know how much I can trust them.
"Nevermind," I say giving a slight shrug. I glance at Isabel, hoping she won't mind me explaining. I'm sure she'll jump in if she thinks I'm going too far or mis-interpreting things. "Maybe we should start at the beginning. Isabel saw something strange with Cameron's eyes when she was talking to Alex -- not as strange as what happened later, but still very odd. Her eyes were glowing. Did any of you see something like that? Alex? Did you notice that, too? Isabel thought you looked a little dazed at the time..."
