Before Liz answers or even looks at me, Zan is ordering me away and grabbing her by the shoulders. "No, don't touch her," he says.
I wanna grab him and pull him away from Liz. I'm incensed that he would take such liberties! But I see the way he holds her and I see her face, so wild with confusion and hurt. It might be the pain and emotion, but somehow, she looks wrong.
"Ssh, ssh. Nassan’eera," Zan calms her, speaking some foriegn word that I almost recognise. Either he somehow knows exactly what's wrong with Liz, or this isn't Liz.
I look at the girl then, how she collapses in Zan's arms. This isn't Liz, It's probably Zan's second. And if that's the case, then it must be Liz who is my human-born second, since she looks so similiar and she did fit Zan's criteria. She does belong -- not just to the 'I know an alien club' but to the Royal Four/Five. Why then did Nacedo reject her so strongly?
"It isn't Liz, is it?" I ask Zan. I look back at Michael and Maria, who have followed us. I haven't mentioned their names or Isabel to the others yet, in spite of the fact that Vilondra introduced her group. Somehow, I haven't been sure it was a good move yet.

Serena fell into my arms, quiet now, a peaceful look falling over her face. I sighed, tucking a few strands of her loose hair behind her ears. She looked so gorgeous and so normal that it was hard to deny that this was the same girl I knew a month ago.
"It isn't Liz, is it?" I heard Max say as the rest of the party came.
Liz. If he could mistake Serena for this Liz person, maybe Liz was . . . No, no maybes. We had to have certainty; we had to be absolutely sure.
I turned the sleeping beauty over, revealing her face to him. "Meet Serena, my Second-in-Command."

Serena. This is Zan's second in command. Now that I see her face up close, I see that she doesn't look exactly like Liz. Still, it's near enough that I have to think that Liz maybe really is my 'second.' That somehow, she's connected to Antar. I just don't understand how.
I don't understand what's wrong with her either, or why she just suddenly collapsed that way. It's a bit scary. How are we supposed to help her? could this happen to Liz?
I hear Tess asking about Liz -- the last person I thought would be asking after her -- but I don't have any answers for her.
"We ... We better get her inside," I suggest, getting to my feet as Zan adjusts Serena in his arms. I get to my feet and move back to stand beside Michael. Right now, I'm far more comfortable with him as my second than thinking about Liz. I still love her so much. I've tried to deny it but I know she doesn't feel the same way about me. Not anymore...

As Zan left us so he could talk to his dupe alone I wondered what it was he had to say to him that he could not say in front of us. He probably just didn’t want any interruptions. I look over my dupe, it’s a very surreal feeling…like looking in a distorted mirror.
“I’m Ava.” I say to her. I guess we might as well play friendly and I wanted to say something to break the silence. Of course something else also breaks the silence as a girl’s scream rings out through the building, echoing off the metal beams creating a very eerie sound.
“Serena.” I whisper before taking off at a run in the direction it came from. Zan as his dupe already beat us there. Zan tenderly holding a sleeping Serena in his arms as Max steps back and says, “We ... We better get her inside,”
“You made her sleep again.” I tell Zan, last time he did that had been when she went into kick ass mode but I don’t see anyone hurt so I presume he did it to keep her quiet.
“Is there a place we can lay her down at?” I ask Max and then I tell Zan, “I’ll stay with her while she sleeps.” Of course that’s nothing unusual, on this little trip we have been renting two rooms, one for Raith and Lonnie and the other with two queen size beds where Zan slept in one and me and Serena in the other. Of course Zan hasn’t even slept that much since Serena got sick.

Does my dad know the meaning of being 'off duty'...? I have to say I'm beginning to wonder... No sooner do I supposedly 'clock out', than he decides he had something he needs to do and asks me to stay a little longer...
Of course it's a whole lot easier to refuse to work longer, if the boss isn't your dad, and I don't suppose I really have much of a choice.
That's why, more than twenty minutes after I was supposed to be leaving to meet the others, I'm actually still standing behind the counter, an apron tied over my jeans, serving drinks to some guys from school who have just walked in.
I shake my head, mentally scolding myself as my attention lapses, resulting in a pool of strawberry shake as it overflows the glass. Concentrate! I reach for a cloth, tidying up quickly and drying off the edge of the glass before carrying it over to the guy who ordered it. He says something about it, but I'm not really listening and just take his money, ringing up the order on the till and handing him his money...
Where are you dad...? I tap my foot impatiently as I look over at the clock.
Right at that moment, the door swings open and he steps back out onto the floor. I remove my apron and move towards him. "Hey dad, am I okay going now then...?" I ask, crossing my fingers behind my back as I stand there.
I can't believe it when I see him shake his head. Unbelievable...
"I'm sorry honey, I'm almost done...if I could get someone else to..." He breaks off, looking at me. "You didn't have plans did you...?"
I swallow and shake my head, knowing that to say yes would be a mistake... Likely it would lead to questions as to what, where, and why, and all of that I could do without... "Uh...no, of course not..."
He nods and smiles. "Okay, then I won't be more than a few more minutes honey... I'm sorry, I know you've been working hard, but I promise I'll make sure you get double time for this..."
"Yeah...great...thanks..." I respond unenthusiastically as I head back to the counter, retrieving my apron and looking over as I see him head through into the back.

I'm watching everything go on, but inside I'm really wondering the same thing as everyone else. What am I if I'm not Max's second? I know I'll find out eventually, so I tune back into my surroundings and take a minute to stare at my double.
He looks exactly like me, except for the ugly hair and punk clothes. But right now he's giving Maria a real odd look, which causes me to tense up again. He better not be freaking checking her out.
"She looks like a wild thing in bed man. Mind sharing?" He says, and I know for sure Maria can feel how tense I am, because I am probably killing her shoulder. I loosen my grip so I don't hurt her, and my temper flares at his comment.
"As long as you don't mind me sharing my fist with your face," I say with a sarcastic snarl, placing my arm instead around Maria's waist.
Just then, a girl screams; someone who looks oddly like Liz. Wait, if the royals all have doubles... Max hasn't even thought of it yet. Maybe Liz is his second?

Tess turns to me and asks, "Where is Liz?" I throw my hands up and shrug. To be honest I thought she'd be here by now.
Michael takes his hand off my shoulder carefully as if h doesn't want to harm me. I can feel the strain between the two grow as Michael slips his arm around mty waist possesively.
"As long as you don't mind me sharing my fist with your face,"
He reples drawing me closer.
I gotta let it be said, I love the feel of his hard chest against my back.
"Maybe I should go get Liz?" I offer helpfully.

"As long as you don't mind me sharing my fist with your face," my dup says but I shrug him off. He may have a rough look to him, different than the others but he doesn't scare me.
Ava's dup turns and asks where some girl Liz is, I wonder if this is their second.
"Maybe I should go get Liz?" My dup's sexy girl asks.
"Want some company?" I ask with an arched brow. I know Lonnie is just feet away but I know she don't really care. We are always flirting with others. Hell, we even invited a few humans to join us on occasion. Those were some fun times, though the humans didn't always think so by the end.

I don't know whether to trust Michael's dupe or not. I can tell he's making Michael mad and I don't like that. "I could go get Liz!" Maria offers helpfully. Before I can say anything Michael's dupe cuts in."Want some company?" He asks Maria. I can see Michael's face turning an even brighter shade of red so I quickly step in.
"If anyone goes with her it's going to be someone from our group." I blurt out and then turn to Maria. "I can go with you and we can stop and get everyone supper!" I continue, hoping Michael will calm down some.
