Roswell Fanatics

~Kyle~

wow. Was it just me or did a lot just happen in such a short time? Kind of hard to fallow really as I set back and watch what goes on around me. It seems Liz is still on her stay away from Max kick and now the poor guy has gone. I wonder if he’s at a bar and can angels get drunk? Hm...

"Show me Michaelis." I hear Maria command her book. Nifty little thing really full of old magic I wonder if it has anything in it on how to break curses or something I’ll ask her after she finishes what she is doing... or maybe after I see if Max can get drunk ah decisions decisions.

~Dustin~

will every one seems to have things under control so now would be a great time to call up Meme and see how she is doing settling into her new place. And to get directions as well seeing as I have been in Roswell for a total of two days and still do not know my way around.

I dile her number and wait for her to answer.

(Could some one please give me an opening i have seemed to have written Max into a corner..lol. And Beyonka is sleeping....so no post for her...lol. )

~Alex~

I turn the corner and walk down the long hallway towards the stairs. No matter how hard I try I can't get the image of Michael and Maria kissing or the image of Isabel's face when I told her I loved Maria. . I hurt her and there is no way she is going to forgive me..and I don't blame...I would hate me if I was her too.

Michael

"No it does not require a Charmed one, and no you are not doing it. That's way too dangerous. Especially for who you are." Maria states, giving me a look that tells me she hates bringing up my demon side. Not that it doesn't have it's occasional perks - think mind blocking and immortality - but I hate it. I'd rather have been born a normal human living a normal life; or a normal demon living a normal life. It's too hard to have fighting sides in the same mind.

"It's not that I don't think you could do it. I know you could, but I can't risk you. Michael there's something I think you need to see." She says, pacing around before heading back to the book. Walking over so I come up behind her again, I hear her next words.

"Show me Michaelis."

"Wait..." I say slowly, looking over her shoulder. "There's stuff about me in there?" I have done some bad things in my lifetime; which, has been pretty long, and I never forgave myself for what I had done. I'd only hoped that, save for in Sebastian, Charlotte, and Calypso's minds, no one would ever know of it. At least not anyone I cared about. Now Maria had a book that could show her everything, and I wasn't too comfortable with what she might see.

"What exactly does it say?"

*Maria*

"Wait..." he replies hesitatly. He sneaks a peek over my shoulder to see what I have found.

"There's stuff about me in there?" Looking worried he asks the question I've been dreading.

"What exactly does it say?"

Why in the world someone so beautiful could ever look that upset is beyond me? I wish I could take away his pain and guilt, but I have a feeling those burdens lie deep.

"Well, The Book of Shadows itself is a witches diary. It just so happens this one gets passed down from generation to generation so that each new gifted Deluca has all the knowlege obtained by her ancestors. Apparently you and your father caused quite a stir at the turn of the century which merited you your own chapter."

Deciding I should admit to how I found all this information I meet his eyes with a nervous and careful gaze.

"When we first met I knew you were different. Which was confirmed later when you kissed me and I had flashes of your past. Some of the images I saw left me with questions I wasn't exactly ready to ask you yet, so when we came home I kind of looked you up." My cheeks are tinted slightly pink when i finish my confession. Now for the yucky part.

This is harder than i thought. Why am I always the bringer of bad news. I swear after all this is over I'm going to the beach for a little fun in the sun. I'll take the girls they deserve a break from all this caous. Kyle and Alex can tag along to. We'll make it a mini vay kay for doing such a good job of destroying evil. That is... if we make it out of this alive.

"This is detailed accounts of your strengths, weaknesses, and um... former uh... flames." I say instantly regreating bringing up his ex. I stare down at the picture of this gorgeous assassion and I wonder how in the world I could ever compete with that.

Shoving all the personal stuff aside I continue, "So anyways there's also a list of prophesies about your future and how it affects the world." I pause so he can prepare himself for what comes next.

"Apparently you are a key player in the appocolypse. No one knows which side your on but the role you play is a significant one. It ultimately determines the outcome of the battle. So you see why I can't let you take on your father's power. If something should go wrong we'd be setting us up to fail."

I mumble over the last words,"If you were turned evil even with the source's power The Charmed One's could still destroy you, but... I could not. I will not put us in that postion, because in the end we'd all lose."

Michael

"Well, The Book of Shadows itself is a witches diary. It just so happens this one gets passed down from generation to generation so that each new gifted Deluca has all the knowlege obtained by her ancestors. Apparently you and your father caused quite a stir at the turn of the century which merited you your own chapter." Great. A stir. Well, that's putting it lightly.

She blushes a little and continues. "When we first met I knew you were different. Which was confirmed later when you kissed me and I had flashes of your past. Some of the images I saw left me with questions I wasn't exactly ready to ask you yet, so when we came home I kind of looked you up. This is detailed accounts of your strengths, weaknesses, and um... former uh... flames." I look down abrubtly, and see a picture of Charlotte, along with all the information anyone would ever need to know about my past. But that's just it. It's my past. I am not like that anymore.

"So anyways there's also a list of prophesies about your future and how it affects the world." I look up questioningly, having never heard of any prophecies.

"Apparently you are a key player in the appocolypse. No one knows which side your on but the role you play is a significant one. It ultimately determines the outcome of the battle. So you see why I can't let you take on your father's power. If something should go wrong we'd be setting us up to fail." I understand her point of view, and agree defeatedly. While it would be nice to be the one that strips Sebastian of his powers, I don't want to end the world in the process.

"If you were turned evil even with the source's power The Charmed One's could still destroy you, but... I could not. I will not put us in that postion, because in the end we'd all lose."

I give Maria a nod and wrap my arms around her from behind in a comforting manner. "I don't want to put any of you in that position. But who are we possibly going to use instead?"

~~~~~LIZ~~~~~
I stand in the corner vagueling listening to Maria and Michael's conversation.
"I think I should do it" I say.
I see Maria and Michael look at me.
"I can handle it" I say.
I know there's no chance in hell they were ever going to let me do it.
I sigh. "Or I guess the other options are Isabel...who sorry, no offence Alex...I don't think thats wise....or Max."

Isabel/Calypso

After spending a few hours painting,trying to get my mind of everything that had happened and not having much success I gave up and shoved the paints aside

"What a mess my life is in...and all because of two men...one whom I can't stand to be around anymore and the other whom I want to be around but who doesn't want me." I grumble while I put my apartment in order

*Maria*

Michael offers me a slight nod a wraps his arms around me causing me to lean back into him. I'm so glad he didn't get upset at the news. I was fearful that all of that at once would be too much for him to handle. In all honesty this was almost too much for me to handle, but with him holding me I find a new source of strength.

"I don't want to put any of you in that position. But who are we possibly going to use instead?" he questions mulling over the possibilites.

All of a sudden a tiny voice pops up. "I think I should do it" Liz states conviction laced in her voice.

Michael and I both look at her blankly.

"I can handle it" she looks at me willing me to believe her. She sighs when we don't answer right away and continues.

"Or I guess the other options are Isabel...who sorry, no offence Alex...I don't think that's wise....or Max."

I think over our options and the result leaves a bitter taste in my mouth.

"Okay, the only people we know with enough power to physically withstand the transfusion is Max,Isabel ,Michael,Tess, Liz, and I."

I admonish listing out the contenders.

"Max is a Whitelighter so he has the best chance of getting out of the proccess untainted by evil however that leaves us susceptible to attacks with our protector being occupied. Plus he would have to go to The Powers That Be and ask permission first otherwise he'd lose his wings, and I really dom't think they'd go for their best lackey being used as a pawn to ward off corruption. At least not by taking over an demons powers. I think they tend to frown on that."

Liz gives me how did you know that expression.

"Sorry, I kind of looked up Max too. You should see his page. There's a really nice picture." I mummer weakly my eyes downcast.

"Getting back to the topic at hand, we can't use Isabel because as far as we know she is a side swapper ,and we need to know that our warrior isn't going to change his/her mind and switch sides midway through this thing. So that leaves her uneligible."

I place my hand over Michael's giving him a comforting squeeze.

"Michael can't do it because of his Destiny. Which gives him a get out of Jail free card. That leaves a member of The Charmed Ones."

Giving Liz a forced smile I finish, " In all fairness between Liz, Tess, and I, Liz has the strongest powers while Tess has the patientce of a saint. I am the weakest link to the triumpiate which is why I have to do it. Liz, if you do it your powers will be so strong that no one will be able to defeat you. If you converted to the Dark side The Charmed One's would no longer exist and there wouldn't be a force on this Earth that could get in your way."

Drawing my attention to Tess I give my evaluation on her part.

"Tess, would be the next best choice ,but she doesn't obtain the percise control of her powers under her belt required for this type of mission. The expperience we've trained for our entire lives she has had to pick up over only a couple of months, and while she is doing exceedingly well better than we could have ever hoped. I don't want to put her out there just yet."

I sigh unable to fathom how we all got ourselves into this mess.

"Which leaves me the one without an active power. If for some reason I turn all Bitchy and try to destroy the world you could take me down without the Charmed Powers. Well, Michael and Isabel could. I'm pretty sure I can count on Isabel to kill me." I smile at our grim circumstances.

"Any questions, complaints, or complimesnts?" I ask the room hopeful for some encouragement or an argueement either way.

Michael

I listen, my arms still wrapped tightly around my Maria's waist as Liz and Maria both voice their opinions. Maria goes down the line, eliminating each person, with cause, and I understand where she is going, until she speaks something I don't want to hear.

"Which leaves me the one without an active power. If for some reason I turn all Bitchy and try to destroy the world you could take me down without the Charmed Powers. Well, Michael and Isabel could. I'm pretty sure I can count on Isabel to kill me." No. She can't be the one that does it. Sebastian would find some way to do something to spite me, with or without his powers.

"Any questions, complaints, or complimesnts?"

"Yes, I don't think you should do it," I say loudly, removing my grip on her waist.

What?
I give her a funny look.

No friggen way.
"Yes, I don't think you should do it," Michael immediately says.
I cross my arms.
"No way Maria. Im not letting you do it. Not a chance"
