Roswell Fanatics

All righty guys I've typed up the next part. Enjoy!

Chapter 11

Zan woke up to a tickling in his ear. He opened his eyes and looked up at a smiling Ava, a feather in hand. She touched her finger to her mouth, the universal sign of be quiet and pointed at Liz. She was still asleep. He pointed to his wrist and Ava put up six fingers. It was way too early to be awake. Ava mouthed the words ‘I have to talk to you.’

Zan nodded and sat up carefully not wanting to wake Liz up. When he made to turn her over so she lay on the couch she opened her eyes sleepily. She frowned looking around groggily until her eyes landed on Zan.

“Are you leaving?” she asked her eyes wide and her voice husky from sleep.

“Not yet.”

“Don’t go.” Liz whispered wrapping her arms around his waist hugging him to her tightly.

Zan was surprised she asked him to stay but lifted her in his arms nonetheless. Liz’s legs automatically went around his waist, her arms around his neck and her face buried in his chest. She hadn’t even noticed Ava watching the entire exchange with a smile on her face.

Zan laid Liz on her bed but she refused to let go of his neck.

“Liz…”

Liz shook her head. “I don’t answer to that name from you.”

Zan gave her a small smile. “Let go an’ go back ta sleep cherry.”

Liz gave him her best pout. “If I go to sleep will you still be here when I wake up?”

Zan looked into her beautiful face, her eyes big and round and her lower lip sticking out. “Yea, cherry. I’ma be here.”

Liz smiled and lifted up to give him a brief kiss on the lips before lying down and curling onto her side.

Zan just stood there for a while wondering what just happened. Remembering Ava was still outside he walked slowly back to the living room. Well, so much for he didn’t need anyone, Zan berated himself.

(Park)

“So, yous two looked pretty cozy on that couch.” Ava said wiggling her eyebrows and smiling.

Zan shrugged but didn’t comment.

“You wanna tell me what the fuck happened yestaday?” Ava asked all traces of humor gone.

“Nothin’” Zan said gruffly.

“Fo real? Damn, then I musta imagined you stormin’ out, then comin’ back ‘bout fiftenn minutes lata lookin’ like a fuckin’ robot.” Ava said crossing her arms over her chest.

Zan looked away.

“Come on Zan. Yous can tell me. We bitches rememba?”

Zan sighed. “I saw ‘er kissin’ ma bitch ass dupe.”

Ava’s eyes widened. “When they was talkin’?”

Zan snorted. “Not much talkin’ goin’ on when I saw ‘em.”

Ava nodded. “Aight lemme see if I can guess wat happened. You see Lizzie an’ Max together. Ya leave, hmmm I don’t know ya probably come ‘ere. Ya start thinking you ain’t shit. That yous is worthless and decide fuck it I’ma let ‘er make the biggest mistake of ‘er life an’ leave ‘er alone to be wit him. Am I on point?”

Zan looked at her his eyes wide with shock.

“Wow, I didn’ know you was such a bitch ass pussy. All this talk about how you da man, an’ you let some cornball from Rozzy steal ya bitch.” Ava said shaking her head.

“She was his bitch first.”

“Yea, but he fuckin’ left her. He runs off ta New York an fucks some otha hoe while yous takin’ care of Liz. She waz here cryin’ ova that jackass an’ he was havin’ the time of ‘is life. You two waz fuckin’ inseparable, you be lookin’ at each other an’ ya automatically know what the otha wants or be thinkin’ about. You gotta be a special kinda stupid not to see ya belong togetha.”

Zan opened and closed his mouth several times before speaking. “Yeah, but she love ‘im.” He argued weakly.

“Aight fuck this.” Ava said getting up. “If you wanna be a bitch ass go ahead. I jus thought I was talkin’ to da man. Ya know he always fightin’ fo wat he wants till he gets it. I ain’t neva seen ‘im run back home wit his tail between his legs.” Ava said getting up.

Zan watched her walk away, lost in thought.

(Cheese Factory)

“So what are we supposed to do? Wait here in this dump until you decide it’s time for us to make a move?” Nicholas said irritated.

“Just leave it to me. I know what I’m doing. Here stay at a hotel until I tell you.” Tess said handing him some money. “This may take a while.”

“I hope your plan works Tess, for your sake.”

~~~

(Crashdown)

Liz glanced towards the doors for the tenth time since she opened the Crashdown. It was ten o’clock in the afternoon and she still hadn’t heard from Zan.

“Table three needs you Liz.” Maria said walking by her to put a tray on the counter.

Liz couldn’t take her eyes off the door. What if he left?

“LIZ!”

Liz jumped. “What?”

“I said table three needs you.”

“Oh okay.” Liz glanced at the door one more time.

“He’s going to come chica.” Maria said smiling.

“How do you know? What if he left?” Liz said nervously.

“Has he ever given you any reason to doubt him?”

Liz shook her head. “He’s never lied to me.”

“See? Okay now go and take care of table three.” Maria said smacking her on the butt.

When the bell chimed a couple of minutes later Liz looked up quickly only to be disappointed when Ava and Kyle walked in. They sat I their usual booth in the corner. Liz walked over to them.

“Hey guys. What do you-“Liz stopped a smile spreading across her face. She looked up at the door a minute before Zan walked in.

He spotted her quickly and walked purposely towards her. Liz’s heart started beating wildly in her chest, when she saw the predatory gleam in his eyes. Zan closed the distance between them in three long strides and without warning crushed his lips to hers.

Liz eagerly opened her mouth and let him taste her. As soon as their tongues touched she was bombarded with flashes.

*Zan coming out of the pods first and helping Lonnie and Ava out.*

*A young Zan being rejected for a job.*

*Zan, Ava, Rath, and Lonnie stealing for food after two weeks of starvation.*

*Zan stealing books from the library after the librarian refused to give him a library card.*

*Zan helping Ava, Rath, and Lonnie read.*

*Zan and Rath killing skins.*

*Zan reading a message to them about the summit meeting.*

*Zan staring at a picture of Liz thinking she was beautiful.*

*Zan’s first kiss with Liz.*

*Zan’s hurt and anger when she called out Max’s name.*

*Zan spotting Liz kissing Max in the backroom.*

*Zan’s feelings of rejection.*

*Zan staring at a picture of Liz determined to leave her alone despite how much he loved her.*

*Zan wishing he was Max so Liz would love him back.*

Liz pulled back tears welling in her eyes. “I’m sorry.” She said softly stroking his cheek.

Zan wiped the tears that spilled over. “Don’ cry cherry. You know I hate it.”

“Hello? Um, hi. Yes we’d like some service. So if you two are done with the making out can we have two Will Smith burgers with space fries and two alien blasts.” Kyle said raising his hand.

“Fuck off Kyle,” Zan glared at him. “Baby yous don’ gotta get him anything.” Zan’s eyes softened when he looked at her.

Liz smiled. “Unfortunately I have to. I kinda work here, but can we talk when I take my brake?”

Zan grinned. “Aight.” She gave him a quick kiss on the lips before leaving.

“Oookay, what the hell was that?” Kyle asked his eyebrows raised.

Zan sat down on the booth and leaned back a smile plastered on his face.

“Wat can I tell ya? I’m da man.” Zan said winking at Ava.

~~~

(Back Room)

“OH MY GOD!” Maria yelled jumping excitedly. “That kiss was HOT!”

Liz covered her face with her hands blushing brightly, though her embarrassment couldn’t wipe the smile off her face.

“Okay, details chica!”

“Maria you saw what happened.” Liz said rolling her eyes.

“You know what I mean. How did it feel? How did you feel? Are you guys together?” Maria fired off each question rapidly.

Liz thought back to the kiss and her smile faded.

“What? Didn’t you like it?”

“No, I mean yeah I liked it. It’s just I got flashes.”

“And that’s bad?” Maria said looking at Liz skeptically.

“No, it-he saw me kissing Max. God, Maria I felt everything he felt. It hurt him so much. I’ve hurt him so much.” Liz said sitting on the couch tears forming in her eyes.

Maria sat down wrapping her arms around her. “Do you love him Liz?” She asked gently.

Did she love him? Her head was saying it’s too soon but her heart was screaming YES! Liz nodded her head slowly.

“What about Max?”

Liz sighed. “I still love Max, just not the way I used to. Not the way I thought I did. He’s changed so much.”

“You can say that again. He’s an asshole now.”

“Maria!”

“Oh, please you know I’m right.” Maria said waving her hand dismissively.

Liz got up. “Okay, we need to get back to work. Just because my parent’s aren’t here doesn’t mean we cans lack off.”

Maria rolled her eyes. “Liz we slack off even when your parent’s are here.”

Liz smiled and went to pick up two trays.

~~~

(Michael’s House)

Michael glanced over at Rath still a little weirded out that he was sitting next to someone who looked just like him. Lonnie was still asleep and they were currently eating two bowls of cereal, in front of the TV.

“Yo, I need to talk to ya ‘bout somethin’ that happened in New York.” Rath said never taking his eyes off the screen.

“What?” Michael said turning his head to look at him.

“The night befo the summit meetin’ I woke up an’ G wasn’ in her bed. I waited up fo her an she came back ‘bout twenty minutes lata.”

Michael raised his eyebrow. “Okay, who’s G and why do you care?”

“Tess. She wasn’ in her bed. Where the fuck you gotta go when yous neva been to New York befo? Then afta the summit thing she waz always out all day an sometimes she ain’t even come back till mornin’.” Rath said finally looking at Michael.

Michael narrowed his eyes. “Do you know where she went?”

Rath shook his head. “Nah, I ain’t eva had time to follow ‘er.”

“She wasn’t at the Crashdown when you guys got back. Where did she go?”

“She tol’ me to drop ‘er off at ‘er house cause she was tired. Iwasn’ about to argue wit ‘er. She ma fuckin’ annoyin’.”

“What did Max say?”

Rath snorted. “Yo, Max waz too busy fuckin’ his bitch to notice anythin’ around ‘im.”

“Do you want to find out what she’s up to?”

“Word? Yous wanna follow ‘er?” Rath asked surprised Michael believed him.

Michael shrugged. “Yeah, I mean you share my DNA. Obviously we have the same instincts.

Rath smirked. “Aight.”

Rath held out his hand, Michael stared at it before taking it. They smiled at each other and their handshake came naturally.

~~~

(Liz’s room)

“Mmm…Zan…we have…to…talk.” Liz said in between kisses.

Liz had taken her brake ten minutes ago and they still hadn’t gotten around to talking. She had led him upstairs for some privacy but Zan had sat down on the couch and pulled her onto his lap kissing away her protests. She felt his hands move down to cup her ass. Knowing they needed to talk before things got out of hand, Liz pulled back.

“Wait…Max...”

Zan’s eyes hardened and he removed his hands from her. “WAT?”

“Baby, we have to talk about Max, but I can’t concentrate when you kiss me.” Liz soothed stroking his cheek.

Zan sighed and lifted her off his lap. Liz sat next to him and turned his face so she looked into his eyes.

Zan didn’t want to talk. The talk he had with Ava had reminded him of who he was and had given him back the confidence to pursue her but he was still afraid of what she was going to say to him. Hey it was fun but I don’t love you I love Max?

“I know you saw us kissing.” Liz started quietly.

Zan stood up. “Yo, I forgot I waz supposed to talk to Lon’s ‘bout somethin’ I-“

“I don’t love him anymore.” Liz said cutting him off.

Zan frowned and sat back down. “Wat?”

“I mean I’ll always love him, he’ll always have a place in my heart but it’s like Kyle or Alex. They’re my friends and I love them but I’m not in love with them.”

Zan’s heart was hammering in his chest. Should he believe her?

“When he kissed me yesterday I didn’t feel like I thought I would. I didn’t feel a connection, I didn’t feel safe, I didn’t feel like I was coming home, I didn’t feel my love for him burst through me, I didn’t feel…like I always feel…when I’m with you.” Liz finished softly.

Zan stared at her at a loss for words.

“Zan I love you. It took me a while to realize it but I think I fell in love with you the first time you came to my room and wiped my tears away.”

Zan shook his head in disbelief. How could she honestly say she wasn’t in love with Max when all her thoughts had been consumed by him these past few weeks? He hadn’t gotten flashes from her in a while because he blocked them but he was pretty sure they were still of Max.

“Yous don’ gotta lie to me Liz.” Zan said.

Liz’s eyes widened. “Zan I’m not-“

“Do you know wat I be seein’ when I kiss ya cherry?” Zans aid getting up angrily. “I see yous two kissin’ at ya cornball restaurant, I see yous holding hands an’ laughin’ an’ it fuckin’ kills me.”


Liz could feel Zan’s pain and it brought tears to her eyes. “Is that what you see? When you kiss me now is that what you see?” How could it be Max he sees when all she could think about was Zan? All she wanted was Zan?

Zan didn’t answer.

Liz stood up. “Kiss me Zan. I want you to kiss me and let me see what you see.”

Zan shook his head. He didn’t need those images in his head again.

Liz stood on her toes and started placing small kisses along his jaw. “Please Zan. Open up to me. Kiss me.”

Unable to resist her plea Zan pulled her by her waist and kissed her. He tasted her sweetness and deepened the kiss letting her tongue play with his. He could feel her mind opening up to him and unblocked the images.

*Zan kissing Liz at school.*

*Zan kissing Liz in front of her balcony steps.*

*Zan wiping away her tears and making her smile.*

*Liz laughing while Zan ran after her trying to catch her.*

*Zan tickling her on the couch.*

*Liz snuggled up to Zan while they watched a movie.*

*Liz smiling at Zan when she won playing Mario Kart.*

*Zan kissing her on the bed.*

*Liz watching Zan laughing at something Kyle said and thinking he was sexy.*

Zan pulled back breathing heavily. Liz smiled up at him her breath coming out in pants. He looked into her shining brown eyes and grinned.

“Yous think I’m sexy?”

Liz rolled her eyes. “Oh shut up.”

Zan kissed her hard one more time. “I love you.” He whispered nuzzling her nose playfully.

“I love you too.”

WHAT UP GUYS! Well, here's another part it's kinda wack but I'm posting it anyway. Thanks for the FB!

Chapter 12

(Liz’s room)

“…Zan…I have...t-oh god that feels good.” Liz moaned tilting her head to the side to give Zan better access to her neck.

After their declaration of love to each other Zan had walked her over to the couch and showed her just how much he loved her. They had been making out thoroughly for half an hour and Liz’s brake had since been over. Her uniform was unbuttoned, her bra lay forgotten on the floor and if Zan’s hands were headed where Liz thought they were her panties where going to end up with them.

“Zan…baby, I have to get back to work.” Liz protested half heartedly.

Zan worked his way down her collarbone and licked slowly around her breasts. Liz cried out when Zan attached his lips to one of her nipples. She’d never felt anything like it. She’d never gotten this far with anyone before and the feeling Zan was creating in her was making her tremble with pleasure. Zan used his tongue ring to flick her nipple before blowing on it.

“Oh, Zan…please.” Liz moaned holding onto his head.

Zan turned molten gold eyes to her. “Tell me I the only one that eva gonna touch you like this.”

Liz nodded unable to find her voice.

Zan’s hand slid down her body and his finger slowly traced the waistband of her pink cotton panties. He looked down and groaned when he saw the small yellow smiley faces that peppered her underwear.

“Yous so innocent cherry,” Zan murmured. “I get so hard knowin’ you neva been touched befo me…mmm…I smell you baby,” Liz watched him take a deep breath his eyes closed in bliss.

Liz blushed bright red before speaking. “C-can you take off your shirt too?”

Zan leaned in and kissed her passionately sucking her tongue into his mouth. He broke the kiss to lift his shirt over his head and toss it in the corner. Liz stared in awe at his muscled chest. He had various tattoos, most where Antarian symbols. The V constellation she noticed was painted under his belly button pointing suggestively towards the inside of his pants. His nipple ring glinted in the light drawing her eyes to it. Zan’s breathing increased at the way she was looking at him.

“Lay back cherry, I wanna feel ya pretty breasts on me.”

Liz lay back on the couch trembling from nervousness and desire. Zan licked his lips, god she was beautiful. Her Crashdown uniform opened up even more, her brown silky hair was fanned out around her and her lips where swollen from his kisses. He bent his head taking her mouth again then leaned forward to brush their bodies together. He groaned when her nipples came in contact with his bare chest.

Liz arched her back increasing the friction between their bodies and moaned into his mouth. Zan nipped her bottom lip then kissed his way down her body. He sucked her nipples into his mouth, first one then the other making sure they were nice and hard for him. Liz was trembling harder now but she never took her eyes off him as he worked his way down to her panties.

Zan stopped to breath in Liz’s musky scent, she smelled so sweet to him. He slowly pulled off her pink panties sad to see them go. Instead of throwing them on the floor with her bra he stuffed them in his pocket for safe keeping.

“Spread ya legs wider fa me cheery.” Zan commanded kissing her thighs.

Liz tentatively spread her legs wider, her entire body flushing with embarrassment. Zan apparently not satisfied pushed one of her legs off the side of the couch so her closely trimmed pussy spread open, glistening with her juices for his viewing pleasure. Liz attempted to close her legs modestly but Zan wedged his body between them keeping them wide open.

“Let me see ya cherry. Ya sweet pussy’s all wet fa me an’ I wanna enjoy it.” Zan said huskily.

Liz bit her lip when his warm breath hit her weeping core. He licked, sucked, and kissed the inside of her thighs slowly working his way up to her wet pussy. Liz let out a gasp of air when his mouth finally reached its destination. Fisting her hands on the back of the couch Liz closed her eyes tightly at the sensation.

Zan expertly ate her out enjoying every second of it. Her pussy had its own unique taste that was purely his Liz and he knew he’s never tire of her. He nibbled on her small bundle of nerves and had to hold on tightly to her thighs to keep her from arching right off the couch. He licked at her for a while longer until she was sopping wet before kissing his way back up her body to take her mouth.

Liz’s pussy was throbbing and she wrapped her arms around Zan’s neck kissing him for all she was worth. Zan pulled back and sat on his knees slowly unbuttoning his pants. Liz’s eyes were drawn to his hands as he slowly pulled his pants down. Her eyes widened in shock when his huge cock sprang free. Apparently he didn’t wear any underwear.

“Easy access baby.” Zan said as if he read her mind.

Liz bit her lip worriedly when she saw the length and girth of his penis. She knew the first time hurt but he’d tear her in half with that monster. Sensing her nerves Zan bent his head and gave her a soft loving kiss.

“I love you cherry. Don’ worry I’ma take it nice an’ slow fa you.” He whispered against her lips.

Zan kissed her once more before lifting her into his arms. He finished taking off her Crashdown uniform and his pants before walking them into her room and laying her down on her bed gently.

He sucked on nipple into his mouth and rubbed her clit in low circles getting her as close to the edge as possible. When he thrust inside her he wanted her to be in so much pleasure that she’d forget about the pain of braking through her hymen. When he was satisfied with her wetness he materialized a condom out of thin air and protected them. Settling between her legs Zan slowly entered her. He pushed only the head letting her get used to the size before slowly pushing in inch by inch.

Liz thrashed her head from side to side fisting her hands on the bed spread. He was filling her up to the hilt and it felt so good.

Zan was about half way in when he felt her barrier. He almost came at the thought of knowing he was her first; that he would be her one and only.

He leaned forward taking her lips and kissing her softly. “Baby this is gonna hurt. I’ma do it quick ta get it ova wit aight?”

Liz nodded kissing him again and closed her eyes tightly. Zan pulled back slightly before thrusting forward fast breaking through her hymen. Liz cried out her eyes opening wide and filling with tears. Unable to see her in pain Zan pressed his hand to her lower abdomen healing her. Liz looked at him through glistening eyes and smiled. She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him down kissing him fervently.

“I love you.” Liz whispered.

Zan grinned. He never tired of hearing her say that. Her walls clenching around him brought him back to the matter at hand. He grabbed her hips and finished entering her slowly until he was completely inside her. He had to grit his teeth to keep himself from coming right away. She was so tight and wet for him that it took every ounce of control he possessed to keep him from blowing his load. Zan looked down at Liz who had her bottom lip between her teeth and her eyes tightly closed.

“How does it feel?” He whispered.

“Full…good.” Liz said softly.

She opened her eyes and smiled up at him wiggling her hips gently. Zan grinned and pulled back slowly only to thrust back in. Liz gasped unconsciously spreading her legs wider to accommodate him better. Zan pulled back farther then pushed back in. They continued this rhythm until he was pulling almost all the way out and thrusting hard back in. Liz’s moans and cries increased as she felt pressure start in the pit of her stomach.

“Z-Zan…please…I-” Liz wasn’t sure what was happening.

“Let go fa me cherry. Come around my cock sweets.” Zan said huskily never slowing his movements.

“ZAN!” Liz cried out shuddering violently.

Zan thrust a couple of more times before going over himself. He slumped on top of her breathing harshly. After a while he felt small nibbles on his shoulder and chest. He looked down and Liz smiled at him.

“You’re getting heavy baby.”

Zan lifted himself up and slowly pulled out of her. He waved his hand over his condom covered dick to get rid of it and to clean himself up. He then waved his hand over her, cleaning her as well. Exhausted he laid next to her bringing the bed comforter over their bodies and spooned behind her. Soon they both fell into a blissful sleep.

(Michael’s apartment)

“Aight so how we gonna do this? We jus gonna show up at ‘er house an’ follow ‘er from there?” Rath asked Michael.

Michael thought about it before shaking his head. “She might see us. It’d be better if we followed her by car.”

Rath nodded. “Yea, but we ain’t got a car. Lons took it ta chill wit Isabel an’ Opie.”

Michael snorted. “Don’t worry I know a car we can use.”

~~~

(Downstairs at the Crash)

Maria sat on a stool staring outside through the glass windows of the Crashdown lost in thought. She had had lunch with Brody again this afternoon. He was a nice guy and his daughter was the sweetest little thing but she didn’t have feelings for him. Not romantic feelings anyway. Sighing she shook her head. Why was it that she couldn’t move past him? She loved Michael so much but it seemed like it wasn’t enough. Like no matter what she did he’d never fully open up to her. Lately she’d been giving Liz advice about being happy and finding her true love and soul mate but she didn’t listen to the advice herself. Maybe Michael wasn’t her true love. Maybe they were just too different.

It wasn’t like he was all bad the man did have good qualities. He was kind when he wanted to be… he was gentle, protective, he was sweet sometimes…he was stealing her car… Maria snapped out of her thoughts and stood up. Michael and Rath stood outside on the sidewalk currently opening the doors to her Jetta. Why that good for nothing little car thief! Maria quickly ran to the doors jerking them open she ran outside in time to hear the squeal of tires before they drove off in her car. Oh, he was so gonna pay for that when he got back.

~~~

(Two hours later outside the Valenti house)

“You know this isn’t as fun as it looks on TV.” Michael said leaning back in the passenger seat of the Jetta.

He and Rath had arrived at Kyle’s house a little more than two hours ago and so far nothing had happened. No one had come in or out of the house in that span of time.

“I know. This shit is ma’ borin’.” Rath complained.

Half an hour later the door to the house finally opened and out came Tess.

“It’s about fuckin’ time.” Rath said crouching down so Tess couldn’t see them.

She walked about three blocks before they turned on the car to follow; she seemed to be too busy talking on her cell phone to notice them. To their disappointment she walked over to the Crashdown.

“Hmm.” Michael turned off the car and looked over at Rath.

“She didn’ go nowhwere suspicious.” Rath said looking at the Crashdown doors.

“Nope.”

“So we jacked ya bitch’s car fo nothin’.” Rath pointed out.

“Yup.”

“She is gonna kick ya ass.” Rath commented.

“Probably.” Michael agreed.

~~~

(A booth at the Crash)

Ava, Kyle, Liz, Zan, and Maria sat in the corner booth talking. Liz and Maria had finished their shifts and where enjoying time with their friends.

“So, Zan are you still leaving for New York?” Maria grinned.

Zan who was nibbling on Liz’s neck didn’t seem to have heard. Liz who hadn’t heard what Maria said either nudged him lightly blushing profusely at her friend’s looks. Zan lifted his head, kissed her softly on the lips then turned to Maria.

“Wat?”

“I said are you still leaving for New York?”

“No, he’s not.” Liz said before Zan could answer.

Everyone looked at Zan who shrugged, “Why would I go ta New York if everythin’ I want is in Roshell.”

Maria snorted. “If you’re going to be living here the least you can do is say it right. Ros-well.” She said enunciating.

Ava frowned when she looked at Zan’s neck. “Yo yous got new ink?”

Zan grinned. “Yea.”

He turned his head exposing his neck to them where two cherries lay. Liz gasped then smiled brightly at him. Not caring what her friends thought she kissed him there before capturing his mouth in a passionate kiss.

“Uh, guys…a little uncomfortable guys…um that’s enough guys…”

Liz pulled back ignoring Kyle. “I love you.” She whispered.

“Love ya too cherry.” Zan murmured his gaze on her lips.

“Hey guys.”

Every one looked up to see a smiling Tess. Liz, Maria, and Ava smiled forcefully at her.

“Hey Tess.” Kyle smiled genuinely.

“Wat’s good.” Zan greeted.

“You guys mind if I sit here with you?” She said already pulling up a chair and setting it down next to Zan.

The table quieted down considerably after she sat. The only person talking to her was Kyle. When the door chimed everyone turned to see Rath and Michael walk in. Ava was the only one that seemed to notice Tess roll her eyes at them.

“YOU!” Maria yelled getting up.

She rushed over to Michael and started hitting him wherever she could reach.

“Hey! Maria stop!” Michael said holding her hands.

“You car stealing little-“

Michael cut her off by pressing his lips to hers. God, he’d missed doing this. He felt her surrender to him quickly and he let go of her hands to pull her against him.

“GOD! What’s with the PDA this afternoon?!” Kyle groaned and covered his eyes.

Michael pulled back and sat a dazed Maria back in the booth. Both he and Rath grabbed seats and sat around the group.

“Yo wat up?” Rath greeted Zan with their usual handshake.

“Nothin’ jus chillin’.” Zan answered.

“Yo, we really gotta leave taday? Cause me an M.G wanted to do somethin’ lata.” Rath asked.

Zan shook his head. “I ain’t goin’ back to New York.”

“We ain’t goin’ back?”

“If you an Lons wanna go back I ain’t gonna stop ya.” Zan shrugged.

Rath nodded and sat back on his chair. “I think Rozzy’s cool fo now.”

“So, you guys are staying? Wow that’s great.” Tess said sweetly.

The looks she gave Zan didn’t go unnoticed by Rath and Michael. They really needed to find out what was going on in her head.

A while later Ava and Kyle left to get some alone time and Michael and Maria seemed to have disappeared though neither Zan nor Liz noticed. They were to busy laughing and talking softly to themselves.

Tess clenched her teeth every time Zan kissed Liz. God, did that bitch have a fucking King radar or something? What the fuck could Zan possibly see in her? She was going to enjoy killing Liz Parker the most. But before she did that she was going to have to fuck a little with their heads. Unable to keep seeing them together Tess got up and left unaware of Rath watching her every move.

Ummm hi guys...this chapter might make some of you mad...well its gonna suck cause the next few chapters will make you guys even angrier. Oh well on with the story!

Chapter 13

Tess walked down the street fuming. She could still see Zan and Liz in her head acting lovey dovey without a care in the world. How the fuck was she supposed to get in his pants now? She was so lost in thought she almost missed Max’s jeep driving towards the Crashdown. His little bitch was sitting next to him and an evil smile appeared on her face. Now was the perfect time to start executing her plan. Closing her eyes she concentrated on making herself invisible to everyone and walked back towards the Crashdown. This little interaction between the two kings should be fun.

~~~

Max didn’t know what he was supposed to do. He had spent the entire day in Serena’s house unable to break it off with her. He couldn’t, not until he knew for sure what was going on between him and Liz. It wasn’t that he didn’t love Serena. He did in his own way but Liz was his soul mate. He still didn’t fully understand why their connection was gone but he knew it would come back soon. It was only a matter of time before they were like they used to be. Serena could find someone else. She was beautiful, sweet, and smart. She’d find someone.

Max opened the door to the Crash letting Serena in first. He looked around wondering where Liz was when he spotted her. She wasn’t alone. He watched through jealous eyes as Zan whispered something in her ear making her giggle and lean in to give him a soft kiss on the lips. Zan grinned at her and stroked her cheek lovingly. Without thought he stalked over to them clearing his throat loudly to get their attention.

Liz looked up startled her eyes widening when she saw the anger and jealousy in Max’s eyes.

“M-Max. What are you doing here?” Liz asked casting a quick glance to Serena who was staring at Max with hurt in her eyes.

“What are you doing here with him?” Max gave Zan a look of contempt before his gaze went back to Liz.

Zan smirked not liking the looks Max was giving them and answered smugly. “She fuckin’ wit a real man duke.”

“I’m not talking to you.” Max said through gritted teeth.

“Tha’s too bad cause I’m talkin’ to you.”

“Zan please just let me handle it.” Liz whispered to him before turning to Max. “Max the last time I checked I could hang out with whomever I want. I don’t need to ask for permission.”

~~~

Tess watched on amused at the sidelines as they interacted. She looked over at Serena who looked like she was on the verge of tears. Hmm, she should start planting her seed inside her first. Closing her eyes she sent Serena insecurities. Max is using you…Tess thought gleefully. You’re a good fuck to him…he doesn’t love you…he’ll never love you like he loves perfect Lizzie Parker…what can an alien servant possibly offer a king…

Tess grinned when Serena stormed out of the Crashdown and ran down the street. She turned back to the scene between the two kings and their little slut.

~~~

“Liz can we talk,” Max shot Zan a pointed look. “Alone.”

Liz sighed knowing they’d have to talk eventually. It was over between them and she needed him to understand and accept it.

“Yeah.”

“Cherry-”

“Don’t worry honey. I’ll just be a minute.” Liz smiled reassuringly to Zan and walked through the backdoors with Max.

~~~

Tess saw Max and Liz leave Zan alone at the booth. She didn’t miss the glare he gave Max’s back as they walked off. Closing here eyes tightly she concentrated on Zan and his insecurities. Looks like she chose him over you again…it’ll always be like that…she’ll always choose her soul mate over you…the reject…did you really think she loved you…Liz Parker loves and will always love perfect Max Evans.

Tess held back her laughter when Zan’s eyes clouded with hurt. He stood up giving the backdoor one last lingering look before leaving the Crashdown.

~~~
(Backroom)

“What’s wrong with you Max?” Liz held back her anger.

Max had no right coming into the Crashdown making demands and acting jealous when he had a woman himself.

“What are you doing with him Liz? Is it because he looks like me? Is that it?”

Max knew that was the wrong thing to say when he saw Liz’s eyes darken in anger. The slap came hard against his cheek jerking his head to the side with a snap.

“Bastard. The whole world doesn’t revolve around you Max Evans. Let me make one thing clear. You and I are no longer together. I can be with whomever I want whenever I want and you have no say in it. Why I’m with Zan though is none of your business is because I love him.” Liz said her eyes blazing.

“Y-you love him?”

Liz sighed the anger leaving her when she saw the hurt in his eyes. “Yes Max I love him. And you love Serena.”

Max shook his head trying to deny the truth. “I don’t love her like I do you.”

Liz closed her eyes then met his gaze. “What did you feel when we kissed the other night?”

Taken back by her question the answer was out of his mouth before he could think about it. “Nothing.”

Liz smiled sadly. “Neither did I. I didn’t feel anything Max.”

“B-but-”

“Max our feelings have changed. We’re not the same people we were two years ago. We’ve grown up. We realized that were not meant for each other. We’ve caused each other too much pain. Love shouldn’t be that way. Love should be freeing and full of happiness. When was the last time were happy Max?”

Max stood quietly searching his mind. “A while ago.”

“How do you feel when you’re with Serena?”

Max thought back to when he met her at the summit. She had taken his breath away. Then on their first date she’d made him smile when he hadn’t done it in such a long time. She made him feel alive and though he thought that being with Serena was like it used to be with Liz he realized now that he was wrong. The connection he had with her went beyond that of which he had with Liz.

“Happy.” Max finally answered.

“Exactly Max. Happy. We’re both very happy.” Liz smiled softly.

Max let out a long breath and sat on the battered couch. “I was going to break up with her you know.”

Liz’s eyes widened. “What? Why?”

Max chuckled lightly. “Cause I thought we were meant to be. That even though we didn’t have a connection we’d get it back eventually.”

“It wasn’t gonna happen Max.” Liz said sitting next to him.

“I know. I still love you.”

Liz smiled. “And I love you. I’m just not in love with you.”

Max stared at her for a while when something finally clicked inside him. “I’m not in love with you either.”

Liz nudged him lightly. “Told you so.”

“We’re friends though right?”

“Always.” Liz smiled.

Max gave her a hug before getting up. “Serena’s probably wondering why we’ve been back here so long.”

“Tell her everything Max. What we talked about here. She was hurt when you guys came in.”

Max nodded. “I will.”

Liz got up too and they both walked outside. Liz felt her heart lurch when she looked over to the booth where she left Zan and it was empty. Max also looked around for Serena but she was gone too.

“Where’d they go?” Max asked.

Liz shrugged biting her lip worriedly. “I don’t know.”

Hey guys! Here's another part! Thanks for the FB!

Chapter 14

(Valenti Household)

Kyle sat in front of the TV not really watching it. His thoughts were on a certain blue eyed pink haired girl. He couldn’t believe how far his feelings were for her. He’d never felt anything like this before and he was a little afraid. Ava was so special and smart and he really didn’t know what she saw in a dumb jock like him. His heart soared when she said she’d stay for him. He couldn’t believe it. She was so beautiful to him and he never hesitated to tell her. It was rare to see her blush but she never failed to heat up when he called her beautiful.

The door opened behind him and Kyle smiled before turning around. Ava grinned and plopped herself on the couch next to him.

“Sup Valenti.”

“Is that the way you greet your man?” Kyle said raising his eyebrows.

“Have ya seen ‘im?” Ava said innocently.

Kyle growled pinning her to the couch and giving her a long wet kiss. Ava had her eyes closed a dreamy smile on her face after Kyle pulled back.

“So who’s your man?”

“Can I get anotha demo ta make sure?” Ava said huskily.

Kyle smiled. “Sure.”

****
(Outside Valenti House)

Tess stood outside her house her eyes narrowed in malice. God she was going to have to deal with all these fuckers from New York. First Rath then this little slut; she needed to work fast. She stood there for a while then a smile slowly spread across her face. She knew exactly what to do to ruin not only Kyle and Ava’s lives but everyone else’s as well. Tess left letting them enjoy their happiness while it lasted.

****
(Serena’s Apartment)

Serena laid on her couch her pillow wet from tears. She knew from the start she shouldn’t have messed with the King. If her mom could see her now she’d be so disappointed in her. How could she have possibly thought that he’d ever love her? Have feelings for such a nobody like her? He was clearly in love with Liz Parker. The girl seemed to have a hold on both Kings and Serena didn’t stand a chance. Why did she go and fall in love with him?

Wiping away at her tears Serena took a deep breath. She had a mission to do and she couldn’t let feelings get in the way. She was here to help the royals if need be not get involved with anyone. Larek had informed her of his thoughts about a betrayal against their king. He had overheard one of Khivar’s men talking about his connections with the king and how he had a secret weapon on Earth. That was one of the reasons he’d brought her with him. So she could figure out who was the betrayer and stop anything bad from happening before it was too late. Instead of doing her job she’d lost herself in Max and now her heart was broken.

Sitting up Serena breathed in and out her face determined. She had a job to do. She was done with trying to fit in and trying to find love in someone who clearly gave his heart to another. Once her mission was complete she’d go back to New York and live her life as normally as possible.

****
(The Park)

Zan didn’t understand why he was always drawn to this bench whenever he needed time to think. He didn’t understand where all those thoughts had come from earlier but the feelings were there. He thought he was over his insecurities about Liz’s feelings for Max but apparently he’d just hidden them well. Did she really love him like she claimed she did? He had believed her earlier but now he wasn’t so sure.

An image of Liz and Max making love came into his head out of nowhere. The thought of Max touching and kissing his Liz sent a wave of hurt and anger through him. Earlier he had no doubt who Liz belonged to; who she wanted to be with but now…he didn’t know. He didn’t know what to think and he was getting a small headache. More images of Max and Liz came into his mind and he shook his head trying to rid himself of the images.

“Zan?”

Zan turned around at the sound of his name and relaxed slightly when he saw Ava walking towards him. She sat down on the bench next to him her face laced with concern.

“Yo, wat’s wrong?”

Zan sighed he knew he could tell Ava. She was his sister and he knew she’d understand what he was going through.

“Aight, so I waz sittin’ at Liz’s restaurant wit ‘er and we waz cool, you know talkin’ an kissin’ an shit. Den Max walk in wit his girlfriend and start demandin’ shit. You know like why she waz wit me and all dat. He asks her ta go to the backroom so they can talk on they own an she goes wit him. I don know. I got this feelin’ like she waz just playin’ wit me ya know? Like I’m jus a sorry excuse for wat she really want. So I bounced.” Zan said finally letting out his feelings.

Ava’s eyes widened. “She went ta the back wit him even though she knew yous didn’ want her to? Thas a little fucked up. I mean she know how you feel ‘bout Max and she still left wit him? I think Liz needs ta get her priorities straight.”

Ava moved closer to Zan wrapping her arms around his waist. “’Sides you ain’t no sorry excuse for nobody. Max ain’t shit compared ta you. You gots more power an’ you more alien than ‘im.”

Zan got another image of Liz telling him she’d never want to be with someone who wasn’t as smart as she was. She couldn’t possibly have feelings for an idiot.

“Yeah but I ain’t as smart as she is. Max and her can have them intelligent convo’s women like ta have. I can’t ever compare ta him.” Zan said wrapping his arm around her shoulder.

“Thas why we gots ta stick togetha’. Me an’ you an’ Rath an’ Lonnie. These cornballs from Rozzy don’ undastand us. They ain’t neva gonnaknow wat it’s like fa us.” Ava said cuddling up closer to Zan.

Zan looked down at Ava in surprise. “I’s thought yous wanted ta stay fa Kyle? He looks like he like ya a lot.”

Ava snorted. “Nah. He showed ‘is true colors when we was in his house. We waz cool at first ya know kissin’ an shit but then he started talkin’ bout how he can’t be wit me if I don’ go ta school an’ change the way I look. I think he really got a crush on Tess an’ just wanted me cause I’s look like ‘er.”

Zan felt his anger flare. “Yous want me ta go have a talk wit ‘im?”

It was different for Zan to be going through feeling like a reject but there was no need for Ava to be feeling that way too.

“Nah, not now. I jus wanna sit here wit you fo a while.” Ava said snuggling into him. “Yous always make me feel safe.”

Zan smiled. “Aight.”

****
(The Crashdown)

Liz sat at the Crashdown with her head in her hands. She was worried about Zan and she couldn’t do anything about it. She couldn’t leave the Crashdown until it closed which wasn’t for another two hours. She had tried to reach for Zan through their connection but she couldn’t feel him. The fact that he had blocked her only worried her even more. Max had gone to find Serena leaving Liz to her own thoughts. She thought that she and Zan had gone past the Max factor but apparently he still had insecurities about him. Liz didn’t know what she could possibly do to make him believe she only had eyes for him.

The door chimed above her but she didn’t even bother turning to see who it was.

“Wat’s wrong Lizzie?” Ava said sitting in front of her and moving over so Kyle could take a seat next to her.

Liz sighed. “It’s just Zan left earlier and I think he may be mad at me but I’m not really sure why. I can’t feel him anymore and it hurts when he blocks me.” Tears started to form in her eyes.

“What where you doing when he left?” Kyle asked concerned.

Liz looked away. “Well, Max had come in here acting all jealous. He asked me to go talk to him in the back room and I agreed. I wanted to set him straight about my feelings for him and how they’ve changed. I assured Zan that I’d be back and not to worry but…apparently he didn’t believe me. He was gone when we came back out. So was Serena by the way who was also here to witness Max’s little display.” She said bitterly.

Kyle whistled.

“Wat did you an Max talk about?” Ava asked covering Liz’s hands with on of her own for comfort.

“I told him everything. How I felt and how I knew he didn’t feel the same about me like he used to. I made him see that we were just not meant to be like we thought. He agreed with me and he promised to talk to Serena about everything he felt.”

“Don’ worry I’ll have a talk wit Zan. I’ll smack ‘im in the face a couple a times fo bein’ such a an asshole.” Ava said smiling.

Liz couldn’t help the small smile lighting her face. “Kay. Tell him I love him and I’ll be waiting here for him okay?”

Ava smiled gently. “Aight.”

****
(The Park)

Zan sat with Ava for about half an hour before she sat up to look at him.

“Les go for a walk. Like we used ta.” Ava said her eyes twinkling.

Zan agreed getting up. Ava took his hand in hers and they started walking through the park in silence. Zan walked with her not really paying attention to where he was when Ava suddenly stopped.

“Oh ma God.” She said softly.

Zan frowned looking down at her wondering why she stopped but she wasn’t looking at him. Her mouth was in an ‘o’ shape and her eyes where big with surprise.

Zan looked up and his heart stopped. There not five feet away from them where Max and Liz. And they were caught in a passionate embrace not caring who saw them.

Hey guys...Okay I've just finished writing this next part and I really don't like it. I think it's kinda blah and could have been better. *sigh* Well this story is about one to two parts from being over. Hope you've enjoyed it!



Chapter 15

(Serena’s House)

Max walked into Serena’s house his heart beating in trepidation. He had had a bad feeling since he left the Crash and now that he arrived at her house the feelings only increased.

“Serena?”

Not getting an answer Max walked passed the empty living room and into the bedroom. Serena lay on the bed reading a book; she didn’t look up when he came in. Max walked slowly towards the bed.

“Sere?”

Still no answer. Sitting on the side of the bed Max took the book from her. Serena sighed finally acknowledging his presence.

“Serena…we have to talk.”

Serena sat up on her bed. “Yes we do.”

“I love you.”

“I want to break up.”

“What?”

“What?”

Serena held up her hand. “What did you say?” she whispered.

Max took her small hand in his. “I said…I love you.”

Serena shook her head sadly. “No you don’t.”

“Why would you think I don’t?” Max asked surprised.

Serena pulled her hand away from his and got up. Max watched her pace for a while until she finally stopped to look at him.

“Max you can’t sit here and tell me you love me when it’s obvious you love someone else. You and Liz Parker are soul mates. You guys belong together she’s your other half. I-I’m just your servant.”

Max stood up and closed the distance between them. He gently cupped her cheek so she met his eyes. “You’re wrong baby. I’ll admit that at first I thought so too. I thought Liz and I were soul mates and meant to be but speaking to her made me realize that I was wrong. I love Liz but I’m not in love with her. Liz told me something today that opened my eyes. She said that love wasn’t supposed to hurt us like it did. Love’s supposed to make you feel safe and happy and that’s when I knew that I was in love with you. You make me happy.”

Serena felt the tears slide down her face. Should she believe him? “Why would you love such a nobody like me? I have nothing to offer you.” She whispered.

Max stroked her cheek. “Do you love me?”

Serena couldn’t stop herself from nodding.

“Then that’s all I’ll ever need from you.” Max murmured then leaned in for a soft kiss. “I’m sorry. I’m sorry for the way I’ve been treating you.”

Serena pulled back and looked into his eyes. She could clearly see the love shining in them and she smiled shyly. “Say it again.”

Max grinned. “What that I’m sorry or that I love you?”

“The second part.”

Max wrapped his arms around her. “I love you Serena. Only you.”

****
(Cheese Factory)

“The bitch is taking way too long. I’m finished waiting for her to get the job done. We’re taking this into our own hands.” Nicholas said to his band of skins. “Sinora!” A tall man walked forward.

“Bring me this girl.” Nicholas said handing him a picture of Liz. “She’s the key to the king’s heart.”

“Yes sir.” The man said quickly walking out of the factory.

Nicholas was done doing things Tess’ way. He didn’t care whether she kept her side of the bargain to Khivar. All he wanted was the Granolith and the little human bitch was the only way he was going to get it.

****

(The Park)

Zan stared at Max and Liz as they continued to make out his anger increasing the more he watched. Blue currents of electricity were running up and down his arms and clenched fists. He was going to blast Max back to fucking Antar and he didn’t give a shit who watched. He started walking purposely towards them but Ava stopped him.

“Where you goin’?”

“I’ma go kick that little bitch ass to kingdom come. He think he gonna fuck wit my bitch then he got anotha thing comin’.” Zan said angrily.

“You think Liz is jus gonna let you kick Max’s ass? I mean I’m all for it but Liz is gonna be really upset if ya do.”

Zan turned to were Max and Liz where still making out then down to Ava. She was usually right about things and he knew blasting Max in the middle of a public park wasn’t going to do anyone any good even if he really wanted to.

“I’ll deal wit ‘im lata. When we alone.” Zan said his face set in anger.

Tess looked away a ghost of smile playing on her lips. This was the best plan she’d ever had. When she spotted Zan sitting on the bench alone she had sent him images of Max and Liz to make him even more insecure about his relationship with the slut. Changing her appearance to Ava was the smartest thing she’d ever done. She knew Zan would let his guard down with Ava making it easier for her to warp him. He was so emotional right now he couldn’t even feel her messing with his mind. Pretty soon she’d have him in her bed.

****
(Liz’s Room)

Liz sat on her lawn chair on her balcony her worry increasing. She had a bad feeling something was going to happen but she wasn’t sure what it was going to be. It was already close to eight o’clock and she had not seen Zan yet. Ava had said she was going to speak to him but apparently she still hadn’t gotten a chance to. She missed Zan and really wanted to set everything straight. His feelings where blocked from her and the bad feeling increased.

Liz heard a noise in her room through her open window and her heart leapt. It had to be Zan. She quickly got up and climbed through her window coming face to face with a tall man with blonde hair. Before Liz could react the man knocked her out with a swift punch to the face.

****
(The Park)

Rath couldn’t believe he had lost her. He had been following Tess when she left the Crashdown but he must have lost her in the crowd because she had disappeared. He had walked around town for a couple of hours trying to spot her but she was nowhere to be found. He knew she couldn’t have gotten far because she was on foot. The only place he hadn’t looked yet was the park. He walked around looking for any sign of a small blonde when he spotted them. Even from where he was standing Rath could feel Zan’s power. He looked angry at something in the distance. Rath looked over wondering what Zan was so angry about but he couldn’t see anything. The only things in front of Zan and Ava were trees and grass.

Frowning he walked over to them.

“Yo. Wats really good?” Rath said standing behind them.

Tess heard Rath’s voice and tensed. Shit! How the hell did he find them? She was still holding her mind warp on Zan and though he had his guard down and it was easier for her to get into his head it still took a lot out of her to hold it up. Rath’s sudden appearance wasn’t going to help her in the least.

Zan turned slightly towards Rath his eyes never leaving Max and Liz. “Yo.”

Rath frowned again. “Wat’s wrong duke? Yous look like you about to blow somethin’ up.”

Tess glanced nervously between Zan and Rath. She didn’t know what to do. Maybe she could come up with an excuse to leave.

“Wat you mean wat’s wrong?” Zan said his fists still clenched. “How the fuck would you feel if you caught Lonnie makin’ out wit some otha fucker?”

“I’d beat the shit outta him. But wat that got to do wit why you pissed?” Rath asked puzzled.

“Look! My bitch ass dupe is fuckin’ wit my girl.” Zan said pointing to the clearing.

Tess slowly moved away from them and walked off as quickly as she could before they noticed. Rath looked at Zan intently; he was staring into space again. Rath turned to ask Ava what she thought was wrong with him but she wasn’t there anymore.

Zan blinked at where Max and Liz were but they were gone. His head throbbed and he closed his eyes at the slight pain.

“Yo, you aight?”

Zan nodded but stopped when his head hurt even more. “Where they go?”

“Who?”

“Max an’ Liz. They was right there.” Zan said nodding towards the trees.

“No they wasn’t.” Rath said his stomach sinking.

“Yeah they was. I saw ‘em kissin’ ova there.”

Rath quickly put two and two together. “Zan listen ta me man. There was no one there. Max an’ Liz wasn kissin’.”

Zan shook his head. “Yeah they was me and Aves saw ‘em.”

Rath pulled out his cell phone and dialed his little sister’s phone number. After three rings she picked up.

“Yo.”

“Aves where you at right now?”

“I’m at Kyle’s.”

“Have you seen Zan today?” Rath asked he knew what her answer was going to be even before she said it.

“Nah. I’ma go look for ‘im lata. We gots to discuss some things.” Ava answered.

“Aight. I’ll talk to ya lata.”

“Peace.”

Rath hung up. If Ava hadn’t seen Zan all day it was obvious who was with Zan this entire time. She was probably doing her mind thing on him and Zan didn’t even know.

“Zan you an Ava didn’ see shit. You wasn’ wit Ava you was wit Tess. She’s been fuckin’ wit ya head man.” Rath said angrily.

“Nah she…” As if a fog in his mind had cleared all the images and thoughts he’d been having of Liz vanished. He raised his hand to his temples and healed the headache quickly. It hadn’t been Ava he’d been speaking to this entire time. It was Tess.

“You aight?” Rath asked after Zan quieted.

Zan closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He was holding on tightly to his anger. He couldn’t believe that he hadn’t caught on that he was being warped. His thoughts of Liz and his trust in Ava had left him vulnerable for Tess to take advantage. Wait till he got his hands on the little bitch.

“I’m cool. C’mon we gonna need ta have a little chat wit everyone about that bitch.” Zan said waling towards the entry of the Park.

“That’s wat’s up.” Rath said following him.

****
(Cheese Factory)

Liz scrunched up her face the pounding in her head making her moan. She opened her eyes warily and found herself looking at an assortment of cheese boxes. She tried to lift her hand to cover her head but they were securely tied to a post in the middle of the room.

“How’s your head?” A cold voice asked from the corner of the room.

Liz strained to see who it was.

Nicholas sauntered over to her a huge smile on his face. “Remember me?”

Liz smiled sarcastically. “How could I forget?”

“I’m guessing you’re wondering why you’re here,” Nicholas said pacing in front of her. “You see you precious Max has something that I want. Now I know you two are inseparable so he must have told you where it is.” He stopped pacing and looked at her. “Where is the Granolith?”

“I have no idea.” Liz said truthfully.

Nicholas snorted in disbelief. “Okay human. We can do this the easy way or the hard way. I’m going to ask you one more time. Where is it?”

“I-don’t-know.” Liz said slowly.

Nicholas raised his hand and slapped her hard across the face. Liz’s head jerked to the side from the impact.

“Fine. We’ll do it the hard way.” Nicholas called in two guys. “Do whatever the hell you want with her. I’ll be back in an hour.”

Liz looked fearfully from one man to the other. She knew Zan had blocked their connection but she couldn’t help silently calling for him before the guys started taking turns using her as a punching bag.

All right guys. This is the end. I hope you guys have enjoyed the ride with me. Now this isn't the best ending b/c I didn't really know how I was going to do it but I hope you guys like it anyway.

Chapter 16

(The Crashdown)

After Zan had gotten out of Tess’ mind warp he’d started getting a bad feeling in the pit of his stomach. Rath and he where walking towards the Crash but when he heard Liz’s silent plea he had broke off into a run. He didn’t mean to block her but his mind was in haze and he couldn’t really control what he was thinking. Dread was slowly rising in the pit of his stomach and he used an extra burst of speed to get to the Crashdown in less than thirty seconds. He climbed up the balcony latter praying that he was wrong; that his feelings was just an aftermath of what Tess did but when he saw the open window he immediately knew his feelings were accurate. Someone had taken his Liz. He climbed through the window and was hit with a flash of a man punching Liz square in the face and knocking her out. He clenched his fist in anger blue electric currents running up and around his arms and hands. They obviously didn’t know who they were fucking with.

A couple of minutes later Rath came through the door breathing heavily.

“Wat’s up man?” Rath asked looking around.

“They got Liz.” Zan said calmly.

Rath knew that voice. It was the voice he always used when he was about to take down skins.

“Round up the rest of the crew. I’ma find out where Liz at.” Zan said already closing his eyes in concentration.

He reached out towards her through their connection and immediately felt Liz inside his head. He could feel she was in serious pain.

‘Baby?’ he called to her.

‘Zan?’ Liz soft voice ran through him.

‘Where you at cherry?’ Zan asked gritting his teeth trying to sound as normal as possible. He could feel the pain she was going through in waves and he needed to stay calm.

‘T-the cheese factory. Zan I…I’m sorry. Don’t be mad okay?’ Liz’s voice was weaker. Zan tried to hold on to their connection but she was slipping away from him.

‘I ain’t mad baby. Hold on fa me cherry.’

‘I love you.’ Liz whispered into his mind before the connection was lost.

Zan let out a roar of anger. The air crackled with energy; blue bolts of electricity ran through the air and over Zan’s body. Whoever was responsible for this was paying with their life.

Not bothering with walking he materialized downstairs at the restaurant. Everyone was there waiting for him looking afraid.

“What’s wrong Zan? Where’s Liz?” Maria asked trembling slightly. Michael put his arms around her trying to calm her down.

“She at some factory outside a town. They doin’ somethin’ to ‘er cause I know she in pain.” Zan said calmly his eyes cold as ice.

“Who? Who took her?” Max asked his hand tightly clasped with Serena’s.

“We know Tess got somethin’ to do wit it.” Rath said speaking to all of them. “She been using her mind shit on ya. I didn’ trust ‘er an’ I been followin’ ‘er around. She was pretendin’ ta be Ava and warpin’ shit into Zan’s head.”

“I knew that blond slut was up to something! Oh wait till I get my hands on her.” Maria said angrily.

“Maria you’re staying here. If we’re going to the cheese factory for Liz you sure as hell aren’t coming.” Michael said holding on tighter to Maria.

“Michael-”

Zan held out his hand irritated that they were wasting so much time. He wasn’t waiting for any of them. His Liz was in danger.

“Ya can decide what yous gonna do. I’m out.” He closed his eyes and was gone in a second.

****

Tess stormed inside the cheese factory writhing with anger. That asshole ruined her plan. They probably had everything figured out by now. She wasn’t going to be able to get near them anytime soon. How could she have been so stupid? She had to have thought everything through before she did anything. She spotted Nicholas surrounded by fifty of his lackeys and wearing a satisfied smug look on his face. She glared at him.

“Why are you so fucking happy?”

Nicholas grinned. “Oh I have a reason to be Tess dear.”

Tess narrowed her eyes. “What did you do?”

Nicholas sighed looking at her like she was an ignorant child. “I took matters into my own hands. You where obviously not getting anywhere and I need the Granilith. And In about-” Nicholas looked down at his watch. “-oh five minutes I’m going to get it.”

Tess raised her eyebrow skeptically. “How?”

Nicholas smiled evilly. “Why don’t you go take a look in that room over there.” He said pointing to a door in the far corner.

Tess walked passed him and into the room. The sight in front of her made her laugh. There on the ground was a bloodied up Liz. She was obviously passed out and from all the bruises on her face and body Tess could see she was beaten up good. Two skins stood off to the side. She walked over to Liz and kicked her for good measure.

“Bring her out here.” Nicholas told the skins.

The two guys roughly picked up Liz and dropped her in front of Nicholas’ feet. The skins behind Nicholas laughed.

Tess almost squealed with joy excited to see that though her plan hadn’t worked like she thought Liz would still get what’s coming to her. If anything she could always use Liz as a pawn to get Zan to sleep with her.

Nicholas bent over Liz and placed his hand on her head. He easily went through her thoughts searching for the location of the Granilith. Liz groaned in pain coming back into consciousness. Nicholas let out a frustrated growl when he saw she was telling the truth. She had no idea where the Granilith was.

“The bitch is useless.” Nicholas said disgusted. He raised his arm to blast her but Tess stopped him.

“Can I do it?” Tess asked eagerly.

Nicholas smirked. “Whatever.”

Tess grinned raising her hand and sending a blast of energy at Liz. Before it could reach her a blue shimmering shield surrounded her. The energy ball bounced of the shield and hit the wall.

Zan appeared in front of them his arms crossed over his chest. His face was devoid of emotion and he was staring at them through cold dark eyes.

“I don’ think tha’s a good idea.” He said calmly to Tess.

“Well, Well, Well, if it isn’t king Zan himself.” Nicholas said airily as if Zan’s presence didn’t bother him at all. “I was hoping to draw Max over here but you’re even better.”

“What the fuck you want Niko?” Zan said impatiently.

“You know what I want. Give me the Granilith and the girl lives.”

Zan laughed though it didn’t reach his hard eyes. “In case ya haven’t noticed you ain’t getting’ pass dat shield.”

“Are you sure about that?” Nicholas smiled.

A skin sent a blast of energy at Zan from behind. Zan didn’t even flinch he moved so fast all that could be seen was a blur. The blast hit another skin standing next to Nicholas killing him on contact.

Nicholas’ smile faltered and he sneered at Zan. At once all twenty skins including Nicholas threw blasts at Zan. Zan moved swiftly blocking blasts and hitting skins with his own energy. He killed off ten of them before he was hit on the side by Nicholas. He absorbed the pain killing off as many skins left and right. He was so busy fighting them he didn’t notice his shield around Liz had faltered. Tess took the opportunity to grab a still unconscious Liz and haul her away from the fighting and outside.

For every one hit a skin got on Zan he killed five of them. Soon it was just Zan and Nicholas standing surrounded by dust and scorch marks. Zan stood straight facing Nicholas despite the wounds inflicted on his body. Nicholas gave him an ugly look before sending him his most powerful blast. Zan raised his hand using as much of his power to send the blast right back to Nicholas. The energy ball hovered in between them as each tried to push the blast to the other. Liz’s bloodied face appeared in Zan’s mind and with an angry roar he sent the blast straight to Nicholas. Nicholas’ face was frozen in surprise before the blast ripped him to shreds.

Zan panted finally feeling the pain in his body and fell to his knees. He looked around and his heart stopped. Liz and Tess were gone. Ignoring his body’s protest he stood up quickly and headed through the open door. God, he was such an idiot! He hadn’t been paying attention to either girl while he was fighting. If anything happened to Liz he wouldn’t be able to forgive himself.

“Zan!” Rath called.

Rath, Michael, Max, Lonnie, Serena and Ava jumped out of Max’s jeep and came running towards him.

“What happened?” Lonnie asked looking at her brother’s injuries.

“I killed Niko an ‘is posy.’ Zan answered distractedly. He couldn’t feel Liz and ha had no idea where the hell Tess had taken her.

“Where’s Liz?” Max asked looking around.

“Tess got ‘er. When I was fightin’ ma shield musta come down an she took ‘er.” Zan said angrily. The little bitch was gonna pay.

“She couldn’ a gone far. She ain’t got no ride.” Rath said already searching around the factory for signs.

Everyone spread out hoping to find a clue as to where Tess could have possibly gone.

****

Tess dragged Liz through the desert until she was at least a couple of hundred feet away. Blasting a hole through the wall of a large rock she made a makeshift cave and dragged Liz inside. Liz was still unconscious her face bloodied and bruised and now covered in dirt.

Tess glared at the girl she hated most in the entire world. It was this stupid bitch’s fault why she didn’t have Max or Zan for that matter. What the fuck did she have that Tess didn’t have? Tess grabbed Liz roughly by the hair yanking her hair back.

“What the fuck do they see in you huh?” She yelled in Liz’s face. “What the fuck is it?!”

Tess let Liz head fall back on the ground and started to pace in front of her. She muttered crazily to herself glancing at Liz on occasion. Finally she seemed to have come to a decision. Walking over to Liz she took off her ripped and dirty clothes leaving her only in her white bra with little poodles on it and matching panties.

Tess quickly took of her own clothes and tried to fit herself in Liz’s much smaller garments. Liz’s already torn shirt ripped even more as Tess squeezed herself into it. She pulled on Liz’s pants though they wouldn’t button or zip up.

“So how do I look?” Tess asked Liz as she twirled around. “Do I look like you? Zan won’t be able to take his hands off me after he sees me in your clothes.”

Liz’s brown hair was spread out around her face. Tess tugged on her own blond curls roughly pulling out some strands.

“No, no, no, no. I have to be just like you.” Waving her hand over her hair she changed the color from blond to brown.

“Now everyone’s gonna love me.” Tess smiled insanely at Liz. “They’ll think I’m sweet little Lizzie Parker. I’ll have Zan all to myself.”

Tess frowned at Liz. “I’ll have to kill you obviously. They’ll know I’m not you if you’re around.” She raised her hand ready to blast her when a blue shield surrounded Tess.

Zan, Rath, Ava, Lonnie, Serena, Michael, and Max stood at the cave opening. Zan had fire in his eyes as he looked from a nearly nude Liz to a brown haired Tess in Liz’s clothes.

Ignoring Tess’ cries of outrage Zan quickly walked over to Liz. Materializing a blanket out of thin air he covered her with it before lifting her into his arms. He walked past everyone not once looking at Tess who was banging her fists on the shield and yelling obscenities.

“Let’s go.” His tone commanding and every bit the king he was said to be.

Everyone followed without protest. As they walked away form the cave a loud noise was heard before the cave exploded. Everyone flinched except Zan who continued walking towards the jeep.

****

Liz frowned before her eyes fluttered open. She looked around noticing the familiar surroundings of her room. The memory of what happened came rushing back to her and she tried to sit up but a strong arm held her down.

“Calm down cherry.” Zan murmured from behind her.

Liz turned to see Zan lying next to her on her bed. She launched herself into his arms happy to see him. Zan laughed holding her tightly to his chest.

“How you feelin’ baby?” Zan asked running his hand through her soft hair.

Liz didn’t feel any pain anymore. “Good. Did you heal me?”

Zan nodded and hugged her tighter. “Ya scared me so much cherry. When I brought ya home you was hardly breathin’. It took me a while but I’s finally got in enough ta heal ya. God, baby when I saw wat they did to ya I just wanted ta bring ‘em back from the dead so I could kill ‘em again.”

Liz snuggled closer to him. “It’s okay. I’m okay now.”

Zan kissed her forehead and they lay in comfortable silence. They must have fallen back asleep because soon they were being woken up by a loud knock on the door.

“Zan? Yous betta not be in dere doin’ the beast wit two back while we all out ‘ere wantin’ ta see Lizzie.” Ava’s voice filtered through the door.

Zan looked down at Liz who smiled. Winking at her he faced the door.

“Oh! Oh god. Yeah cherry. You suck me so good baby.” Zan said loudly.

Liz tried to muffle her laughter with her hand.

“Right there cherry. You like that?”

Liz bit her lip before joining in. “God Zan you know I can’t stand it when you do that. You’re so good baby.”

An audible groan could be heard from the other side of the door. “You guys are fuckin’ gross.” Ava yelled.

“Oh god LIZ!” Zan let out a loud groan.

“Oh ZAN!” Liz answered.

Zan got up and opened the door laughing. Ava quickly covered her eyes not wanting to be scarred for life.

“It’s aight Aves we decent.” Zan said smirking.

Ava looked at him through her fingers then put her hand down. “Asshole.”

She walked passed him and jumped on the bed when she saw Liz was awake. “You cool?”

Liz smiled. “Yeah.”

“Come on everyone wanna see ya.” Ava said grabbing her hand.

They all walked downstairs. Michael and Rath were sitting on the counter deep in conversation. Isabel, Lonnie, Kyle, and Alex sat at a booth playing cards. Alex said something to them and Lonnie laughed loudly punching him on the shoulder. Serena, Max, and Maria were sitting at a table in the middle. Max looked uncomfortable as Serena and Maria looked to be talking about personal girly things.

“Yo, look who’s here.” Ava said walking in with Liz and Zan.

“LIZ!” Maria screamed getting up and running over to her. She hugged her best friend tightly. “You had us worried girlfriend.”

Liz smiled. “I’m fine.”

Everyone took their turns hugging her. When it was Max’s turn Zan stepped up and stood next to Liz. He eyed his dupe unable to stop from being slightly suspicious of him. Max smiled softly at Zan before holding out his hand to him. Zan looked down at Max’s hand then at Liz who was biting her lip worriedly. He could feel her hope that they would finally get along. Smirking he took Max’s hand in his usual handshake.

Serena stood next to Max taking his hand. “I’m glad you’re okay.” She said speaking to Liz for the first time.

Liz smiled. “Thanks.”

“I-um, I hope we can you know be friends.” Serena asked tentatively.

“You know what Serena. I have a feeling we’ll be very good friends.” Serena smiled and sat next to Max on a stool.

The friends all sat at down chatting and having fun. It was very late when Rath and Lonnie came up to Zan. “So yous stayin’ in Rozzy right?” Rath asked him.

Zan looked down at Liz. “Yea.”

Lonnie nodded. “I’ma miss ya bro.” She hugged him tightly to her.

Rath waited then hugged Zan affectionately. “It ain’t gonna be da same witout ya.”

Ava came up to them and hugged her brother and the woman she saw as a sister tightly.

“We gonna miss ya too Aves.” Lonnie said trying not to tear up.

Everyone came up to their new friends and each took a turn hugging or giving them a handshake.

“You guys better come back to visit us.” Alex said to them.

“You know it Opie.” Rath answered.

Everyone laughed. They went outside and watched as the two lovers got into the blue Trans am and drove off.

Soon Alex went to take Isabel home, Maria left with Michael, and Serena and Max went right after.

Ava looked at Zan and Liz who were quickly getting lost in each other’s eyes. “Come on Valenti, les leave these two alone befo they start getting’ it on in fornt of us.”

Zan and Liz didn’t even notice they had left. Liz led Zan back upstairs and into her house.

“Why don’ we watch a movie like we used ta?” Zan said sitting down on the couch.

Liz turned on the TV to a movie channel and snuggled into Zan’s arms. They watched the movie silently content to be together.

“Zan?”

“Hmm.”

“I love you.”

Zan looked down at Liz. “I love you too.”

“Zan?”

“Yea?”

Liz sat up biting her lip. “I just wanted to let you know…”

THWACK!

Liz hit Zan hard with a pillow then took of running laughing at Zan’s stunned face. He quickly recovered taking off after her. He caught her in his arms and threw her lightly on her bed tickling her mercilessly.

“Who da man?” He asked loudly over Liz’s laughter. “Who da man?”

Liz laughed. “Y-you! You! Stop!”

Zan stopped smiling down at her affectionately. Liz wrapped her arms around his neck bringing his lips close to hers.

“Why don’t you show me who the man is?” She said huskily.

“Love to cherry.” Zan murmured and proceeded to show her just who the man was.
