Prologue

"I'm really excited about this Jim" said Jeff Parker "I can't believe a real princess is coming to stay here in little old Roswell. Should be good for business right?" he nodded enthusiastically
"Yes. Since you're the biggest restuarant on Main Street she'll be eating here at least once. Her security team will be coming to check things out, they might install security cameras and move things around but I've been told that she'll pay for anything that happens and things will be put back the way they were"
"I don't care what she does as long as she increases my business and profit" he shot back before looking round the empty cafe. It was quiet today and only a few regulars were in.
"Max why do we have to come here everyday?" Michael whined "We should be in the UFO center looking for clues about our past" Max nearly choked on his cherry cola
"Want to say that a little louder Michael? I don't think the Sheriff heard you" he quipped "Besides I spend enough time in that little tourist box working there as it is"
"We'll never find out about who we are Maxwell" he replied then leaned back in his seat
"We will one day, when it's right" Max said as he caught part of the conversation between Jeff and the Sheriff
"Did you hear that? A Princess is coming to Roswell"
"So, all those princesses are butt ugly. Cross breeding and all that" Michael replied
"I can't believe you just said that. Besides, you'll be cooking for her"
"What?" Michael looked up at his friend
"If you heard them talking you would have heard about Jeff and the Sheriff making plans for her to eat here. Means she'll be eating your greasefried cooking" he chuckled, the Sheriff came over and stared at them through his sunglasses
"She's also coming to the UFO Center and Milton has put you in charge of looking after her Max" he said and Michael began laughing "You might as well know since you're so big on listening in to other people's conversations"
"I'm sorry sir" said Max swallowing hard, Michael was still laughing hard and Valenti smirked before walking out "You're a real asshole you know that" he said to his friend before getting up and grabbing his orange waist coat uniform "I better go see what Milton wants me to do" he said then left Michael to pay for the food and drink Max had eaten.

She sighed as she laid in bed sandwiched between Alex and Kyle. Her bodyguards and protectors. They had both been brought in by Nasedo when she was eight. All she had been told about them was that they were best friends and had been trained to protect her; she had grown up with them and they were her closest friends
"I don't want to go to Roswell. I know Nasedo believes we'll find the King but I'm tired of going to all these different places" she whispered, all her life she had done what Nasedo had asked of her. She went to finishing school to be proper in Earth society and custom, she had the finest tutors and lecturers so she would be wise and she was trained to fight if she ever found herself in a situation when she was on her own; which was highly unlikely because Alex and Kyle were always with her. All that just to find the King
"Don't worry Liz, maybe this time we will find the King and then you can all go home" said Alex
"I don't want to find the King. He's probably some snot nosed royal asshole with big ears and bad teeth, I want to fall in love. I don't want to be married off to some guy just because it's what my people want. When we find the King I'll have to leave you both behind, I don't think I could handle that. I love you both so much" she said then began to cry "How can I ever find a chance to meet the man of my dreams? When Nasedo is only concerned about using me to go home?" Kyle held her tight while she cried then looked to his cousin who shared the same worried look as him. Liz cried herself to sleep then they climbed from her bed and put on their clothes and stood outside like they always did.
"I've never seen her like this before Alex. She's been sad before but not like this. Maybe we should talk to Nasedo?" Kyle suggested and Alex scoffed
"Like he would really listen to us? He's hell bent on going home, has been ever since the ship landed here in forty nine"
"I can still remember the look on his face that day when he was supposed to meet up with the other protector and hand over the Princess to him. He went crazy that day when he found out the ship had crashed!" he chuckled then fell silent. They stayed like that all the way through the night until Liz woke up.
She woke up in bed alone and sighed, she got up and pulled on some clothes and went outside to find her bodyguards trying not to fall asleep
"Come on guys. We have to get ready to go, you can sleep on the plane" she whispered as she put on some sunglasses and headed downstairs to where Nasedo's security team were waiting.
"Good Morning Princess Elizabeth" said the head man in charge, he went by the name of Mr Black and was summed up a stereotypical security boffin
"Good Morning Mr Black. Is everyone ready to leave?" she asked and he nodded
"Yes your highness, we're just waiting for confirmation from your Guardian" he replied and she rolled her eyes and pulled her hair back and smoothed down her grey pants suit. Kyle handed her coat to her and she put it on "Okay your highness. It's time to go" he said and Kyle and Alex took hold of her hand and they left the house looking out for any danger that could threaten their best friend and secretly lover. They got her into the limo and then they were on their way to the private jet.
Liz sat there in the limo feeling anticipation and nervousness rising in her stomach, she'd felt it ever since she woke up and it was playing havoc on her powers. She had several power flare ups over her skin while she was getting ready; she knew something was going to happen in Roswell and it was going to be big and would leave a lasting impression on her life.

"Max, remember to ask for her autograph and take a picture of her. Oh I wish I could come with you!" cried Isabel, she was a big fan of Princess Elizabeth because she had a killer fashion sense
"Isabel," he sighed then took the camera off her "I'm sorry Milton wouldn't let you come. He told me he had a hard time convincing the security team that I could show her around the UFO Museum!"
"But you get to spend time with the most amazing, prettiest... god I can't believe it" she said excitedly
"It's not like I'm planning a romantic dinner for her Isabel. She spends ninety minutes with me surrounded by bodyguards and security then I escort her over to the CrashDown then I'm done" he sighed deeply "I hope I get paid for this" Isabel smacked his arm
"Please do not tell me you just said that. Is money all you think about?"
"Gotta have money so I can do the research" he replied and she went quiet. Their alien history was something that they longed to know about, she had no idea Max was saving up so he could spend time and effort in doing just that "I have to go now Isabel. I'll see you later, okay" he kissed his sister's cheek and left the house.
He arrived at the UFO center a few minutes later and Milton was a bag of nerves
"Oh Max thank goodness you're here! Mr Black called half an hour ago and said they'd left the hotel so they should be here any minute!" he cried
"Okay, calm down Milton. Here sniff this, my friend Maria says it reduces stress" he held the little vial and Milton walked off sniffing it. Max shook his head then several men dressed in black came in and began inspecting things and talking on walkie talkies "Milton! They're here!" he called and Milton came out wringing his hands nervously
"Okay" said the man nearest then "It is safe and secure to bring the Princess in" he said into a walkie talkie then in came the Princess flanked by two serious looking teens dressed in suits and sunglasses. She was wearing a blue oriental dress and her hair was pinned back by ashi. Max's breath caught in his throat as she came down the stairs looking like an angel!
"Hello sir, you must be Milton Ross am I correct?" she smiled showing her amazing overbite and Max was at a loss for words. How was he going to spend an hour and a half with her?
"Yes, it's an honour your highness" he said shaking her hand, she turned to the young boy next to him and took off her sunglasses and eyed him up. She couldn't help her racing pulse, she was sure he had been the one she'd dreamt about last night; the one that she'd dreamt of every night of her life even while she was in the pod! "A-and you..." she stuttered then blushed. She never stuttered! Alex and Kyle looked at one another and smirked
"I am Max your highness" he said reaching out to shake her hand
"P-please c... call me Liz" she said feeling like a fool as she forgot about the etiquette that had been drummed into her since she age of six "My bodyguards Kyle and Alex will be travelling with me as well" she explained "Sh-shall we begin the tour?" she linked arms with him and felt solid muscle and her legs trembled. Kyle looked at Alex and grinned
"Have you ever seen Liz act like that?" he asked telepathically
"Not once" he replied "I think she may have found someone to crush on"
"It's a shame he's not the King of Antar. They seem so perfect together" Kyle stated. Even though Alex and Kyle were Liz's lovers as well as her bodyguards they had still never made love with her. She was saving that part of herself for her true love or her king or whichever came first. Kyle watched this guy and hoped that it was the true love first because she deserved to be happy. He also wondered when she would ask them to case him out, Kyle enjoyed casing guys out for Liz. Any possible boyfriend had to go with him and Alex before he was declared dateable for her; eyeing Max up he hoped that she would choose him as a temporary boyfriend! She was going to swallow him whole and maybe even spend more than a week here in Roswell much to the chagrin of her guardian Nasedo.
"So Max, what's so special about this place?" asked Liz, she felt more confidence the more she spent time with him. She had asked him tonnes of questions because she loved the sound of his voice
"Well this is the biggest collection of alien related records on the South West of American. Are you interested in aliens Liz?" he asked her and she blinked then felt fear; was it obvious? Was she having energy flashes again? Max knew instantly something was wrong with her, he could sense her and a few times she'd tried getting into his head
"A little" she said looking down then looked back up "Maybe we should go some place and talk?" Kyle and Alex shared a worried look then rushed forward
"Liz you cannot deviate from the original tour. Nasedo will be most unpleased" Alex pointed out
"I don't care what he thinks!" she said coldly then turned back to Max "Maybe you'll join me for dinner in the restuarant?"
"Sure, I'd like that. My best friend is the chef there" he explained and she grinned
"Really" she smiled then they carried on walking round the musuem.

***

Isabel was in the kitchen talking to Michael, there had been some fuss about letting her in but Michael had assured the strange Mr Black she was sound and wasn't out to poison the princess
"I can't believe Max gets to spend so much time with her! It's not fair! He doesn't even follow her as a fashion guru" she snapped
"Oh Isabel give it a rest. Move back a bit, you're getting under my feet!" he snapped as he tried to make the best burger he'd ever made. His phone rang in his pocket and he quickly pulled it out and tossed it to Isabel
"Answer that will you" he ordered her, she squealed when she saw it was Max calling
"What's she like? Is she really as beautiful as her picture? Did you take a picture? Did you ask for her autograph for me"
"Listen Isabel... there's something really important. Very important you have to do, it's about our heritage" he said and she went quiet
"What is it?" Michael looked up and saw the concerned look on her face, he listened in to their conversation
"You have to put Tabasco in the Princess's food. A lot of it, like he's making a burger for me or you" he said and Isabel looked up at Michael who stepped back and tried to stop the flames that had risen up in his absence
"Max you can't seriously mean... you're not suggesting..." she said she shook her head. No there was no way that the Princess was an alien! Just no way!

Part One

He felt sort of safe, he opened his eyes like he was waking up from a deep sleep and he sighed contently but then the safe happy feeling abandoned him and he knew that he had to get out of the thing that had protected him for so long. He tested his limbs and was surprised when his pod ripped and some of the warm liquid he floated in dribbled out. He got his first breath of air and was amazed by the sudden powerful feelings assaulting his frail senses. He poked his head out and looked around the new pod he found himself in, it was bigger than the one he spent so long in and it felt different, made his skin go funny. He pushed more of the pod apart and fell out down onto the floor. He looked round as his eyes adjusted to the darkness and he sensed that he wasn't alone. He looked up to see a boy standing there staring at him covered in the same drying liquid he was sporting. The boy held out his hand and he took it, the boy helped him up to his feet and held him till he could stand
"Brother" the word came to him but nothing had been spoken. He knew it came from the boy and that the boy was his brother. He smiled then spotted the third and final pod still intact
"Sister" he said telepathically to his brother and the boy nodded. They moved over to her and saw she was awake but she didn't know how to get out of her pod, fear and alarm overcame them when they figured out if she didn't get out soon then she would go away and they'd be alone. Making a joint decision they ripped open her pod and pulled her out. He crouched down and made sure his sister was okay, when he found she was he turned back to their brother only to find him gone, he looked round and spotted him standing near the wall. Their brother pressed his hand to the wall and the rock rolled back
"Wait!" he called but his brother was already going on ahead, he pulled his sister up and led her out quickly after their impatient brother who was already half way down the rock side. It was warmer out here, like they were back in the pods and there were no stars about yet. He held his brother and sister's hands all the while feeling like something was missing or he'd left something behind...

"What are you going to have Max?" asked Liz as they walked over to the CrashDown cafe "I already know what I'm having, my Guardian arranged it for me" she said rather glumly
"Oh I'll have what I normally have. I'm a regular at the CrashDown" he confessed with a blush "Orbit Rings and Cherry Cola with Tabasco!"
"What's Tabasco?" she asked intrigued, there was something about this guy she couldn't quite put her finger on. Usually when she met someone she could instantly read them but she got nothing from him, it thrilled her and scared her all at the same time.
"You've never had Tabasco before?" he asked surprised and she shook her head
"No, never. My Guardian Nasedo, he is very strict about what I can and cannot eat" she said sadly
"He sounds it" said Max "Um Liz, can I ask you something?"
"Sure" she replied with a smile glad that someone was using her first name instead of being 'proper' and 'formal'
"What are you Princess of?" he blurted out "I'm sorry for not knowing, it's just my sister is a really big fan of you because of your 'killer' fashion sense. I tend to ignore her when she starts talking about you, I wish I hadn't now" he said and she blushed.
Alex looked at his best friend who looked absolutely thrilled they were getting on so well
"I'm a Princess of Romania. But I was born in America, I've never been to the land I'm supposed to rule over because we hold very little power over there. My guardian wants me to find a husband so he can go home... he misses Romania so very much"
"Is that why you're in Roswell?" he asked then turned bright red
"What?" she asked confused
"Are you... um a-are you looking for a Roswell in husband?" he stuttered suddenly feeling nervous, jealous and angry; nervous incase she was checking him out for possible husband qualities, jealous for any other guy who thought they were good enough for her and angry for the guy she finally did pick because he would never love her as much as he did! Max went pale! He just thought love! He was in love with her!
"No" she said "My Guardian is looking for a husband. He's been searching all over American trying to find the perfect King for me. I just want to have a normal life and date boys and fall in love" she said as they reached the CrashDown with several security personel following them. Mr Black was waiting for them at the cafe and he opened the doors for them
"Your Highness. Welcome to the CrashDown Cafe" he said the glared at Max
"Your job is done now Mr Evans" he said coldly, Liz cleared her throat
"Max will be joining me for dinner" she said icily, Mr Black spoke into his walkie talkie then nodded and gestured to their table.
"I should have known she would have been lurking around here" chuckled Max
"Who?" asked Liz looking round the patrons who were all smiling at her and saying nice things
"My twin sister Isabel" he pointed his thumb at the service window and a blonde haired girl staring at them. Liz waved and the girl squealled then disappeared from sight making Liz laugh.

Michael shook his head then untied his apron and brushed some of the sweat off his face from working in the kitchen then washed his hands and picked up the tray and carried it into the diner followed by Maria, the waitress that always got on his nerves. He set the tray down on the table top and Maria put a amazing looking milkshake down next to it then curtsied the best she could and nearly fell over
"Thank you" she said then paused when she felt more than she bargained for, this guy was just like Max but she sensed him like she sensed Nasedo. She could sense him standing there but got no thoughts or feelings off him
"Alien Special on the house" he said, he could sense her clear as he could sense his brother and sister and she was sure that she could sense him. He glanced at Max and made a bold decision, he opened his connection a tiny bit and was bombarded by flashes from Liz

Flash

Sitting in etiquette lessons with Nasedo standing at the back of the room, everytime she slipped up she would get hit with the ruler the teacher held. She was forced to do it till she did it right.

Flash

Spending time with a nice looking guy, she had just come home from a date and Nasedo opened the door and ordered them both inside. She'd gone out without telling anyone and only taken Alex and Kyle with her, when Nasedo found out he beat her and paid the boy to go away and never come back. She was broken hearted when the boy took the money and left leaving her to face Nasedo.

Flash

Alex and Kyle holding her while she cried herself to sleep. She never felt so alone and wished that she could find a true family who would love her like she deserved. She dreamt of three people who haunted her dreams but one person in particular.

Flash

Michael nodded his head then went back to the kitchen. He let out a shocked sigh and Isabel looked at him worried and confused, he looked at her and she knew instantly something wasn't right
"What?"
"She's an alien. I sensed her and I got flashes off her, she's one of us" he explained and she gasped. She turned and looked back out into the diner where Max was talking to Liz.
Liz had gotten flashes of Michael's past and she knew that he, Max and Isabel were like her! That means either Max or Michael had to be the King she mused. She couldn't let Nasedo know about Max or Michael, if he found out then they would be under the same terrible nightmare she'd been born into and she couldn't let that happen.
"Alex, Kyle" she said telepathically "I want you to bring both Max and Michael to my hotel tonight and Nasedo isn't to find out about it" they nodded and Kyle looked over joyed! He had no idea that Liz would have a thing for Michael as well but he was glad she did, the guy looked like everything on him was built big. Liz carefully picked up the burger off the plate and a few photographers snapped some photos, she was a little annoyed they'd chosen when she was about to take a bite out of a burger bigger than her! The second she bit it taste exploded in her mouth, Nasedo had told her that her taste and smell was very undeveloped and it would take a long time to get used to the bland flavour of human food; she never expected to taste anything so good, in fact she couldn't remember ever eating something like this before ever! Max looked over at her and saw her crying
"What's wrong?" he asked worried and she sniffed then pulled out a handkerchief
"It's so good. You have to get Michael to come work for me!" she said "I'd pay good money if he cooked for me and my friends"
"I'll tell him that but you might have a time convincing him" Max replied then his watch beeped "I have to go now. I have to be home on Sundays to help my mother set the table"
"Oh" her heart broke when he told her he had to go "Well I'll be in Roswell for a while. You can come and see me anytime you want, I'll be going around the High School tomorrow" she said with a smile and he stood up
"It was an honour to meet you Liz" he said holding out his hand. She stood up and pulled him into a hug
"I know you're like me" she whispered into his ear "Please help me" he pulled back and looked at her in surprise she just plastered on a grin that never reached her eyes and sat back down to eat her burger. Max went into the back to meet up with his brother and sister
"I'll be working the grill till six. I'll keep an eye on her and let you know if anything else happens" said Michael "See you guys later!"
"Bye Michael" Isabel kissed his cheek then left with Max.

***

Fear was too small an emotion to describe how he felt, maybe he'd got it wrong about Liz but she'd felt something about him and called the FBI? Maybe she was an enemy and tricked him into seeing those things? He was roughly shoved into a room and heard the door shut, he was pushed down next to someone and the black bag over his head was removed, the light was dim so it didn't hurt his eyes and he saw Alex standing there dressed in black, Kyle was leaning against the wall looking at them hungrily and Max was sat next to him looking as surprised and scared as he felt. Did that mean they had Isabel too? If they did then where was she?
"You did good boys. Why don't you go entertain yourselves for a while and I'll talk to the King and the General in private" came a female voice and Liz stepped out of the shadows dressed in a thin night dress with her hair falling loosely over her shoulders. Alex and Kyle left leaving them alone to talk. Liz sat down on the end of her bed and turned her toes inward then wiggled them
"I'm so very lonely" she whispered not looking up "My real name is Ava and I come from a planet called Sero. I was betrothed to the King Zan of Antar but we were killed by our enemies before the marriage could happen. We were sent to Earth to be reborn but something went wrong, the ship you were travelling on crashed and the protector in charge who was travelling with me lost you. His name is Nasedo and he's in league with our enemies, he has been searching for the King for so long so he can force me to mate with the King and produce an heir to hand over to Kivar. Well we finally found the King, one of you is the King of Antar recreated" she said
"So that's it? You're going to turn us over to Nasedo and Kivar?" asked Max quietly
"Not at all! In fact I don't want to hand any of you over to him, I plan on hiding the fact that I've found you from him for as long as I can"
"Why?" asked Max surprised
"Because it'll piss him off and besides! You guys are all like me! I've never been around my own people before except Alex and Kyle"
"What about Nasedo?"
"No, he's a shapeshifter. Definitely not Antarian" she explained "So can I check which one's which?" she asked then stood up and came over to them. She pressed her forehead against Michael's and sensed his soul "Ah you were Rath, the General to the King's armies" she said with a smile
"I was a General..." gasped Michael
"Not just any General. You sat at Zan's right hand and you controlled all his armies, you were one of the Royal Four" she said and he sucked in a sharp breath "So that makes you Zan. You're the King of Antar" she smiled
"I... I'm the... woa" he gasped, Liz turned to look at Michael
"Mr Black is waiting in the hall, he'll take you home. I need to talk with Max in private" she said Michael stood up sharply
"I'm not leaving him alone with you!" he cried "This could be a trick"
"Michael, just go I'll be fine. Go make sure Isabel's okay and tell her where I am" he said and Michael scowled then left the room. Liz watched the door shut then turned and pounced on Max who took her tight into his arms
"I've waited to do this since I first laid eyes on you" he said and she nodded then they kissed passionately
"You're my true love Max. You're the man of my dreams! I just never expected you to be my King as well, this is the most wonderful of coincidences!" she said as she crawled onto his lap, then blurted out "I want you to be my boyfriend"
"Are you sure, in secret or in the public's eye?"
"In public. I've made it clear to Nasedo that I despise the King of Antar even though to him I've never met him. If I start dating you then he'll never know that you're the King" she explained "There is just one thing you need to do if you want to be with me Max"
"What's that?" he asked just as the door opened and in walked Alex and Kyle. Kyle eagerly pulled off his shirt and came forward, he kissed Liz just as passionately as Max had and Max watched in fascination as they made out while he still held her in his arms; he got the surprise of his life when Kyle broke the kiss and pressed his mouth to his! He didn't know how to react but then he realised he could taste Liz on Kyle's lips, he gave in so very easily Alex just shook his head then moved forward. Liz climbed off Max and watched her two best friends practically drag Max to her bed. They worked his pyjamas off and Liz crawled up over him as they began kissing and nipping over his body
"Do you want this Max?" she asked "My King" both Alex and Kyle gasped when they realised who they were about to claim for their princess; all three of them waited for Max's answer...

Part Two

"Isabel" Max said quietly getting the attention of his sister, she glanced over her shoulder then sighed and left the group of girls she had been talking to
"What is it now Max?" she asked
"I had that dream again. About... about her" he said while he moved from one foot to the other
"Max you have to get over this silly crush you have on her" said Isabel "I mean ever since you saw her picture in one of my magazines-"
"No Isabel. It was before that... did you ever, when we were found- did you ever think... well feel that you were leaving something behind?" he asked trying to find the words; she paused for a moment and looked worried and he knew she did
"No Max that does not mean that she's like us. There are 6.4 billion people on this stupid planet and just three of us, that's the way it's been and the way it will always be there's no changing that and recurring dreams don't mean a thing!" she snapped sounding defensive then walked off. Max was a nervous wreck, he had no clue what to do; his hands were shaking as he left the school corridor and moved to the jeep. He sat in it for a moment, this was seriously beginning to affect him
"Where are you? What are you doing to me?" he whimpered "One stupid dream and you make me crazy"

***

Liz woke up alone in bed feeling refreshed but edgy, she'd had that dream again and she felt tense and eager as adrenaline pumped through her veins
"What's happening to me?" she whispered running a hand through her hair she caught site of green sparks on her skin and groaned "Not again" she closed her eyes and tried to focus her excess energy she'd built up during dreaming and let it out in her large spacious room, everything was charged for a moment before the energy lost its strength and faded. She got out of bed and walked to her bedroom door and opened it, Alex and Kyle were there as always ever the faithful bodyguards "Guys I need to talk to you" she said holding her door open, they exchanged quiet glances and went inside. She shut the door and went to sit back on her bed
"What's wrong?" asked Alex, he as an empath knew something was up with her even before she asked them to come in
"You guys don't have to be so formal standing all the way over there. Come, get into bed where it's warm" she said as she slid back under the covers. They stripped down to their shorts and climbed in on either side of her double bed
"Tell us what's wrong Liz" said Kyle as she rested her head on his shoulder and Alex stroked her hair
"I had that dream again. I want to go to Roswell but I know Nasedo will never allow it. If I go there and I find the King then I can have him awakened by you two then I can claim him as my mate and then Nasedo won't be able to control me anymore" she said with hope. Nasedo was unable to kill her but that didn't mean he couldn't beat her when she slipped up and did things wrong; they were powerless to stop him because when Nasedo had first saved them he had put some of his energy into them so he could control the two "I don't want to go to Antar and give him or my child over to Kivar, I want to stay here on Earth with you two and Max"
"Max?" Alex raised an eyebrow in surprise "Whose Max?"
"He's the one. He's the man I dream about, he's the one whose going to save me" she replied with a growing smile then the door opened and in walked Nasedo
"Alright you lazy brat get up we've got wor-" he stopped mid sentence when he saw Liz sandwiched between Alex and Kyle "What the hell?!" he roared "What the fuck is this!"
"It's not what it looks like!" Liz cried and Nasedo marched forward grabbing her by the hair and pulled her out of bed onto the floor, he raised his hand to blast the two boys "DON'T KILL THEM! DON'T HURT THEM!" she screamed just before he blasted them into nothingness. He scowled and dropped his hand and she sighed with relief then started crying
"If they've got you pregnant then so help me..." Nasedo said angrily "Get out. Both of you, get your things and get out of this household, you are no longer my employees" he said. Liz looked up at them sharply
"Go to Roswell. I'll be there in a few days, wait for me" she said telepathically to them through their bond
"And as for you. Get dressed, there are some possible kings I want you to meet" he ordered her and she nodded. Alex and Kyle gathered up their things and with sad last looks they left Liz in the hands of that monster.

***

Alex and Kyle arrived feeling tired and broken, they'd never been apart from Liz since they first met her and started to protect her. To them she became a sister to them
"I can't believe we're here by ourselves. It's not right, we shouldn't have left her!" said Alex as he carried his full backpack through the streets of Roswell
"What are we going to do if she doesn't come. What if we never see her again? What... I don't know what I'll do..." said Kyle
"We could always go home" suggested Alex "To our parents"
"Hmm I know but it's been so long. I doubt they'd recognise us" Kyle replied thinking it over "It was when Liz hatched, he'd left her in Roswell so when she came out he needed someone to watch over her. He collected us a few months before she came out, we spent so much time training with him remember?"
"Yeah and you couldn't figure out how to blast. We both had a laugh when we figured out telepathy" Alex chuckled "Can you remember your last name?"
"Oh that's easy. It was Valenti, I was the Sheriff's son. My dad was so proud of me... we were playing basketball in the park when Nasedo collected me" he said "I'm going to go see him. I want a normal life"
"You've been spending too much time with Liz" Alex then they began to laugh with tears in their eyes "I guess we all deserve normal lives. I think I might go home as well then we'll try and find this Max guy so when Liz comes they can just get it on and she'll be free"
"Yeah. Well I... I guess this is our parting ways" said Kyle "We won't be able to spend as much time together like before. I'll miss it, I'll miss it just being the three of us"
"Kyle please don't. I'm sad enoug-" before he said another world Kyle grabbed his head in his hands and kissed him softly then pressed their foreheads together
"You are my best friend and my brother and I love you. I've always loved you, I hope you know that" he said and Alex just nodded, he could feel Kyle's feelings washing over him; he knew that Kyle felt the same for him as he did for Liz.
"I love you too Kyle. You and Liz have been the best family any guy could have" he replied feeling tearful. Kyle stepped back and picked up his heavy duffel and swung it on his shoulder then turned and walked away down Main Street towards the Sheriff's department while Alex grabbed his backpack and tried to remember his way to his mom's office.

***

Kyle dropped his bag down near the reception and some young guy a little older than him manned the desk; he was kinda cute
"Help you?" he asked; his badge said Hanson
"Yeah I'm trying to find the Sheriff" he said with a knowing smile, his dad was still the Sheriff after all this time; he couldn't hide his pride
"Okay can I take your name and why you need to see the Sheriff?" he asked deadpanned, Kyle grinned and looked at the notice board behind him. He grabbed an old missing person's poster off it and slammed it down
"I have some information on this missing person" he said cheerfully pointing at the picture of him as a little boy. The Sheriff came in from his rounds and his boots clicked on the floor, he took his hat off
"Hanson what have you got for me today?" he asked as he made his way around reception. He stared at Kyle suspiciously through his sunglasses and Kyle looked a little breath-taken and startled by the sight of his dad
"Kid here says he has some info on a missing person" Hanson replied, he turned the missing person poster over and read the faded writing "On... Kyle Valenti!" he gasped then looked up at his sheriff. Jim marched over and pushed Hanson over slightly. Hanson got up and made himself busy with other paperwork all the while paying attention to the two at the counter
"You have information about my son?" he asked stonily and Kyle nodded regaining his usual calm clear composure
"Yes I do. I know he's alive and well" he replied and Valenti finally took off his glasses and put them in his shirt pocket
"Do you know where he is?" he asked again and Kyle grinned and nodded his head
"Right in front of you dad" he said and Valenti went pale as shock took over
"Kyle" he whispered in disbelief "My boy?"
"Hey dad" he said happily, Valenti rushed around the counter and pulled his son into a tight hug
"My God Kyle where the hell have you been all this time?" he demanded "Are you okay? What happened? Did someone take you? Did they hurt you?"
"No dad, I'm fine. I wasn't hurt. I was... well it's a long story and you're probably not going to believe it" he said. Valenti looked at Hanson
"Can you hold down the fort while I'm gone? I'm taking my boy home" he said happily and Hanson just nodded. Kyle grabbed his bag of clothes and they went out to the Cruiser and climbed in
"Dad, there's two things I have to tell you" he said as his dad started the car and pulled out of his space
"Anything son, you can tell me anything. I want to hear everything"
"Dad, I'm no longer human and I'm gay" he said at once and his dad stalled the car and nearly ended up crashing "I guess I should have waited for you to not be driving before I told you" Valenti started up the car and drove home as fast as the limit allowed.
"Where's mom?" asked Kyle as they entered the house he knew from so long ago
"Uhh... Michelle left me about a year after you disappeared. I lost myself in my work and one day I came home and she was gone" he explained
"Oh" said Kyle sadly "Oh well" he shrugged
"Kyle where have you been all this time? And why do you think you're not human anymore?" he asked Kyle stood up from the couch and moved towards his dad
"I'm part Antarian now and I can prove it. Give me your hat" he said and gave it to Kyle who put it on his head "I missed wearing your hat. Now to prove I'm an alien" he touched his dad's shirt turning it into soft pink cotton
"What the..." gasped Valenti, Kyle waved his hand and turned it back to normal
"When I was six I was collected by Nasedo. He's a shapeshifter sent from a distant planet to protect one of the Royals that was recreated as a hybrid, now he couldn't watch this particular Royal all the time because there was trouble with the other three Royals and he had to go off to find them. So he collected me and Alex, he trained us and changed us so that when Liz hatched we would watch over her while he could find the other three of the Royal Four. He took us to his home in Phoenix and we stayed with her, the three of us grew up together and we developed a bond. We were a family the three of us and that's how it was for so long, she was our sister and we loved her. Nasedo is evil, he hurts her and wants to use her to return home. He found us all together in bed, we weren't doing anything but he was furious, he forced us to leave. Liz told us to come here and wait for her; this is one of the scariest days of my life because I'm on my own. For thirteen years straight Alex and Liz were always near me and now I'm by myself"
"My father was right. Aliens are here to take over the world, they're turning innocent people into aliens too"
"No dad no. That's not true, Nasedo just wants to go home to Antar. He's using Liz to do that, she just wants a normal life. We all want normal lives. You aren't going to tell anyone about this are you dad?" he asked as he stood there wearing his father's hat that was far too big for him
"No" Valenti shook his head "I've searched for you so long. I'm not going to tell anyone in case they take you away. I don't want to get you back only just to loose you again"
"Thanks daddy" he whispered and hugged his father as he felt tears in his eyes
"Kyle?" Alex flooded his mind
"What's wrong?" he asked out loud pulling away from his father
"I can't find my way home Kyle. I'm lost" he replied "And I'm scared"
"I'll come and get you. Don't worry" he gave the hat back to his dad
"What's going on?" asked Valenti
"Alex can't find his way home. He's lost and scared, I have to go to him" he said
"I'll drive you. Uhh do you know where he is?" he asked a little unsure of how to approach his son's powers
"Yeah I can sense him" he said as he climbed back into the cruiser and they headed out.

***

Max was driving down the road, he knew he shouldn't because his hands couldn't stop shaking and he felt so strange. He turned a corner and saw someone sitting on the curb with a backpack resting against his leg, he looked up when Max passed him and Max gasped when he saw who it was. He stopped the car so fast he almost had a crash, he barely noticed that his shaking had stopped. He turned in his seat and backed up to where Alex was and parked up, he got out quickly and rushed towards Alex
"Where is she!" he demanded eagerly "She's here isn't she! She has to be here you're always with her!"
"Who are you?" Alex backed away and put his hand up, he hoped to God it wasn't a skin. He knew those people worked for Nasedo and if Liz had managed to get away from that monster then he didn't want to tip them off
"No! Where's Liz! I have to see her! It's important!" he shouted "Please just tell me where she is!" the police cruiser pulled up and Max shrank back looking nervous, he got the shock off his life when Kyle climbed out and rushed over to Kyle. Alex grabbed his bag and hurried over to his best friend and they pressed foreheads together
"This guy is asking about Liz. He knows her, I think he might be a skin" he said through their connection. They turned to stare at him and Sheriff Valenti got out and watched as they joined hands
"Alex, Kyle. Please tell me where she is"
"Who are you?" they demanded as they stood together as a united front. Sheriff Valenti walked forward and stood between them
"Max, I think it's best if you just go home" he said causing Alex and Kyle's eyes to open wide in shock
"MAX!" they cried together "You're him! You're the one" Alex gasped, he stepped forward letting go of Kyle and bowed on one knee "You're the King"
"That I know. I saw it in my dream, I just want you to tell me where Liz is"
"She's still with Nasedo" said Kyle "We have to leave, we couldn't do anything. He would have had us killed if we didn't"
"You left her with him!" he snapped, Alex got up off one knee
"Wait, how do we really know you're the King? You could be a skin sent to trick us into handing her over"
"Alex is right" said Kyle, he grabbed hold of his best friend's hand and with their free hands they touched Max's temples and opened a connection. They searched his life and indeed found that he was the king
"It's true. He really is the King of Antar!"

Part Three

"So there really are more of us" asked Michael as they sat around in the jeep near the railway tracks on the edge of town
"Three more like us and a shapeshifter" Max explained and Isabel shook her head
"I can't believe this is real. I'm sorry for doubting you Max" she said "So that Princess Liz really is one of us? She's an alien?"
"Yes" Max nodded
"What about these... bodyguards of hers"
"Alex and Kyle" he stated and Michael nodded
"Yeah them, how are they alien? Weren't they human before? One of them was the Sheriff's son. Does the Sheriff know?"
"Yes" he said in a defeated tone, Isabel slid closer to Michael
"I can't believe he knows. It's only a matter of time before he tells someone and they come to get us"
"Isabel we don't even know if there's a them. Besides, Kyle is Valenti's son. He wouldn't turn him in after only getting him back" then fell quiet
"What are their powers?" asked Michael breaking the silence "How do we know they aren't out to get us?"
"I think their powers work better when they're together as a unit. Alex was scared of me when I was demanding where Liz was, then Kyle turned up and he was like a totally different person" he explained "If they were going to kill us they would have done it by now"
"So what happens now Max. What do we do?" asked Isabel as she wrapped her arms around herself
"We wait for Liz" he said simply "When she gets here then we'll figure out what to do next"

***

The loud crash echoed through the room and she winced as the wood settled beneath her. She felt the ache spreading through her ribs before it faded into dull throbbing. His cold fingers gripped her hair and she closed her eyes tight as he pulled her up and threw her with a shaky wrist. She landed on the bed aching and sore; she tried to get up and she heard him snarl, she turned to face him then his fist hit her across the face knocking her clear down on the floor. She spat blood and gargled some desperate plea
"No more" she groaned "No more please!"
"Clean yourself up. I'm very disappointed in you," he said. Just because none of those men had a trace of Antarian blood he was punishing her. She stood up shakily and made her way into her bathroom to clear away the blood, sweat and tears he'd caused. She used her powers to lesson the pain and then gathered up some clothes and pulled on a cloak and moved to the window. She slid it up and focused her energy changing her appearance to match her surroundings, she climbed down the porch roof then down the trellis and walked as fast as she could across the lawn and climbed the fence. She walked down the road towards the highway hoping to hitch a ride to Roswell.

***

"She should be here by now" Alex stated "I hope she got away"
"She did, she's fine" Kyle said firmly; Alex knew his friend was just trying to make him feel better "She's on her way here right now so stop fussing" Alex shook his head and looked away, his eyes landing on the three aliens sitting talking in a booth
"Do you think we should go talk to them?" he asked nodding in their direction "Maybe if we're explain why Liz sent us here then maybe it would make what we have to do easier?"
"I think we should stick with the way we've always done it when choosing a boyfriend for Liz"
"Yeah but this is the King. I don't think he'll appreciate it if we sneak into his window and crawl into bed with him"
"He might, if we use our powers to make him a little more... accepting of the idea" Kyle said happily "We should have him ready when Liz gets here so that she can claim him as her king and mate and then Nasedo won't be able to hurt her anymore"
"Okay then, we'll do that tonight. As for now why don't we go talk to them, we know a lot more about who and what they are at the moment and if we make peace with them then maybe tonight will go smoother" Alex said and Kyle nodded
"Okay then let's go" they gathered their food and walked over to the booth from their table "Can we join you?"
"Uhh sure" said Max moving over. Kyle sat next to Max and Alex sat next to Isabel. They all sat in silence for a moment unsure of what to do or say
"So uh what's Liz like?" asked Michael desperate for the silence to end
"She's really nice. Do you want to meet her?" asked Kyle, he reached out and touched Michael's arm and sent him flashes and feelings of Liz from his life. Michael sat back when Kyle removed his arm and dropped it into his lap
"Wow" he whispered
"What happened? What did he do?" asked Isabel a little worried
"I saw flashes. Of Liz from Kyle's life, she's wonderful Izzy" he whispered "I felt everything Kyle felt"
"Show me" said Isabel holding out her hand, before Kyle had a chance to move Alex grabbed her hand and connected with her. The connection ran a little deeper than expected and Isabel saw some of the things Alex had done for Liz. She blushed when she saw what they were planning, since she had got the feelings and thoughts off Alex she was instantly accepting of it and knew that Michael and Max would do the same for her if she ever chose a guy she wanted to date. She let go of Alex's hand and smiled at him, he grinned his eyes focused on her not her chest for a change but here like he was looking into her soul; she blushed a little surprised by him.

***

Liz groaned and held an arm over her ribs as the truck jostled and jerked about on the old road
"How longer is it till Roswell?" asked Liz quietly, it was coming up to the middle of the night and she was tired; she didn't want to sleep in case the driver turned out to be some weirdo and tried to hurt her
"Not long now darlin" he said shifting his ancient jeans up over his pot belly "See here's the sign now. Where d'ya want me ta drop you off?"
"Um anywhere in town's fine" she said pulling her cloak tighter around her. She opened her mind to see if she could sense Kyle or Alex, she could barely sense them together and they were putting out a lot of energy; they were up to something. But right now all she wanted to do was get some medical attention and get some sleep, he pulled up and grinned at her she grabbed up her bag and got out quickly staggering away before he could try anything on with her.
She entered some grease food short order restuarant and it looked a little familiar to her but she couldn't quite place where, she sat down on a stool and grabbed a menu but not reading any of it
"What can I get ya?" she looked up to see a blonde waitress standing there with a pad and pencil ready to take her order
"Oh I'm not hungry. Um do you have a first aid kit?" she asked politely
"Yeah sure it's in the back. Follow me" she said and Liz got up to follow the waitress. Maria gave Liz the box and let her sit down on the couch "So are you alright?"
"Yeah I'm fine I just... I here to find my husband" she said "I'm Eli... I'm Liz"
"Maria Deluca. Charmed" she replied cheerfully "So you're married. Whose the lucky guy?"
"Max..." Liz smiled "We have an arranged marriage. I've been looking for him for a very long time"
"Hmm Max Evans? Did you mean him?" asked Maria and Liz nodded
"Yes that's him" said Liz
"Lucky bitch. I'm pretty sure he's gay though, he only hangs out with his sister and that greasy spoon that's got trouble written all over him Michael. I'm sure they're together"
"Not together, just... really best friends. Like brothers" said Liz then she felt a strong pull calling her. She could feel her body humming and knew instantly what Kyle and Alex had been doing; they'd been awakening her mate for her. Liz bandaged her arm up because it was cut and very sore from landing on it then put some cream over her face to take the swelling down. She pulled her hood down and Maria gasped
"Christ! Your face is a mess! Who did this to you?" she asked
"My guardian Edward Harding. He hates me and when I don't do things right he hurts me" she explained then packed everything back into the first aid kit and stood up "I have to go now. I've got to go find Max"
"Try Murray Drive" suggested Maria as she pushed through the door with Liz trailing behind her. Neither girl had noticed that an armed man had come into the cafe and when Maria came out of the back he was surprised and his gun went off. Maria fell back into Liz and both of them fell through the doors into the backroom, she could hear people screaming in the cafe and Maria was looking up at her almost begging her to help, she couldn't help herself; Maria had been so kind and caring towards her so she placed her hand over the wound and tried to fix up the wound as best as she could. She pulled out when she'd done all she could do and got up quickly
"You should be okay now. I have to go!" she said then quickly went out the back. She called for help then waited till the police arrived before she moved on to find Max.

***

Max couldn't quite get to sleep. His whole body was humming with energy and there was no way he would be dreaming tonight; he was a little annoyed that he wouldn't be able to have that dream of Liz. He growled and rolled over hitting his pillow hard then he heard the window slide open, he reached for his bat near the side of his bed then figured out it was probably Michael
"The sleeping bag's near the window Michael" he said not paying any attention to who'd just come through his window. When there was silence he looked over his shoulder to see Alex and Kyle standing there, he jerked up and pulled the blanket up "What are you guys doing here?" the guys held hands then closed their eyes then they opened them and he just smiled nervously. Kyle pulled off his shirt first then moved towards the bed. Max slid over and Kyle climbed under the blanket and they started making out. Alex stripped himself off his clothes and climbed in joining his king and his oldest friend.
Michael watched from the window shocked and aghast at what his best friend and brother was letting happen!
Alex shoved the blankets back and worked on exposing Max. He gasped as Alex pulled off his shorts and a hand worked a way up under his shirt; he was laid down and someone moved on top of him. He looked up to see Alex moving over him
"Do you want to be Liz's mate?" he asked "Do you want to be her king and protect her from anything that would cause her harm"
"Yes" he said and Alex sank down on his manhood. Kyle moved back behind Alex and lifted Max's legs up slightly and slowly filled him. Max could feel energy filling him and he could sense everything in the room and memories of his past flooded his mind; for a moment his eyes turned black and they began to move as one and he felt like he was suddenly awake. The power Alex and Kyle had worked on him snapped and he came hard, the lights flickered on and off and then exploded. Max sank back and fell asleep.
Alex climbed off him and started to get dressed but Kyle curled up next to Max
"Aren't you going home?" asked Alex and Kyle shook his head
"No, I'm going to stay here and wait for Liz. Someone needs to keep an eye out for him while he sleeps"
"You know he'll never go for you. He's waiting for Liz, remember?"
"I know. I just, I can't help it. I know you don't feel what she does because you're straight but I feel it because I have attraction to guys. So I have an attraction to him, I can't exactly help it"
"I sure there will be a guy out there for you Kyle. I'm going home now, my parents will probably freak if they find me missing from my room. It'd be collection all over again" he said then climbed out the window and walked towards the path only to be stopped by Michael
"What the hell did you freaks do to him!" he demanded and shoved Alex hard against the wall "You're our enemies aren't you!" he raised his hand ready to blast Alex
"Stop!" came a familiar female voice. Michael was surprised to see her standing there, he lowered his hand. She gestured for Alex to come to her and he did moving quickly. Michael scowled and sank back into the shadows to keep an eye on his friends.

Part Four

He awoke with a start, several things he remembered but was sure he hadn't done filled his mind then he recalled the night before and all his memories from his life drowning his mind. Then he remembered what had caused his memories to return; he saw Kyle lying curled up next to him and felt a sense of pride and love that he'd done something like this just for Liz because he wanted to make her happy. Max pressed a kiss to Kyle's forehead then sat up and brushed his hair back, then he realised something was wrong; his hair was slightly longer than usual! He got out and looked in his bed room mirror seeing his chin length brown hair. He smiled as his ran fingers through it, he'd keep it and if anyone asked including his parents he say he used the money he'd saved up to get it done.
"Morning" he turned to see Kyle staring at him "How are you feeling? Are you okay? Did it work?"
"Yes Kyle it did" said Max "It's strange because I can remember everything but I know it wasn't me doing it; it was Zan. So does this mean that Liz and I can mate now?"
"Yes, she was supposed to be ready to mate with you last night but since I think she's still in Phoenix then that's why it hasn't happened. When she gets here she'll be able to because you're now awake" Max smirked when he felt Kyle's feelings; he wasn't sure if he had developed more powers or something
"You want me" he stated "Like Liz does" and Kyle ducked his head. Max moved back to the bed and sat down near Kyle. Max ran his fingers through his hair and Kyle shook his head
"No. We can't, if we do then you'll be mated to me and as much as I want that it's not fair to Liz. I don't think it's helping that you're feeding yourself my feelings" he said. Max shook his head and kissed him
"There will be one for you and he will love you no matter what. Thank you for giving yourself over to me last night, you're a brother to Liz and now a brother to me and I will always love you"
"You're welcome" he said then Max stood up and went to his wardrobe and pulled out some clothes
"I feel... different Kyle" he said "More confident, Zan must have been one hell of an Antarian"
"He was. Eh you were... though I wouldn't know because I never met you" he said. Max pulled on his clothes then waved a hand over his hair gelling it the way he wanted then smiled
"You should get dressed soon and go home. I don't want your dad to be worrying about you" he said and Kyle nodded then tossed the blanket back; he was still naked when Max left the room shutting the door behind him.
He opened the door to his sister's room and wasn't surprised to see her curled up with Alex. It began to make sense when he thought about it and he couldn't be happier that his sister had found the one she felt safe enough to sleep with; it was better than Rath or Kivar... He shook his head then gently shook Isabel awake
"Izzy, you have to wake up" he said and she jerked awake
"Max?" she grumbled "What time is it?"
"It's early but mom and dad are going to be up soon" she nodded and gently woke Alex up then turned back to her brother
"What did you do to your hair?" she asked a little impressed at his new do
"I woke up like this" he explained
"Well change it before someone realises that your hairs grown over night" she ordered him. He sighed then waved a hand making it shorter again but it was still gelled back; he was going to let it grow out because it felt nice having his hair long "So how did last night go?" she asked, having every intention of making him feel weird about it
"It was good. I had fun" he said honestly and she blinked
"Oh my God you really are gay aren't you?"
"No. I think they might have done something to make me a little more accepting but after that when I started remembering things I remembered that on our planet it's not seen as taboo"
"What's it like? Can you remember everything? Do you remember our parents? Where were we so long after the Crash?"
"Yes I can remember everything. Our father died when we were very young, he fought for his planet and loved the people. Our mother ruled the Kingdom until I turned sixteen; she arranged for me to marry Princess Ava when I was eighteen and we'd only been married for a few months when Kivar, our enemy, came and killed us all"
"Wait, what do you mean our mother ruled the kingdom?" asked Isabel "Do you mean she was the Queen?"
"Yes" Max nodded "Queen Roizana was our mother. My name was Zan and you were my older sister Vilandra and you were betrothed to my General Rath who now goes by the name of Michael" she looked up shocked
"I was going to marry Michael! But... but he's our brother!"
"Not back then he wasn't. Besides back then doesn't matter, it's what now that counts and from the looks of things this little hallmark moment between you and him looks like it matters"
"I... I..." she mumbled
"I'm happy for you Isabel" he said interrupting her nervousness. She just smiled
"Thank you Max" she said then hugged him
"But you better kick him out soon. Mom and dad will be coming to wake you up any second now" he said then moved to the door
"Y'know, I guess I should be weirded out that the night I chose a boyfriend that said boyfriend actually had sex with my baby brother"
"And... are you?"
"That's the strange thing. I'm not, I'm just extremely jealous that Liz has two guys like this in her life that would do that for her"
"You know Michael and me would do it for you Isabel. Remember that" he said and she nodded feeling a wave of different emotions. Max left the room and she turned to look at Alex; and she would remember it.

***

Liz groaned, she'd spent the night on a park bench curled up trying to sleep. When she woke everything ached, as usual with the morning after her regular beatings. She stretched carefully not to hurt any bruises or possibly broken bones.
She left the little park and went in search of Max, she felt dog tired even though she'd spent most of the night sleeping dead to the world. Her stomach rumbled and she held it tightly trying to forget how food smelt and tasted. She wandered around trying to sense Max's energy signature from the bonds Alex and Kyle had created within him to make him suitable for her. She got to a house but then felt dizzy, she staggered and the ground invaded her vision before everything went black.
She jerked awake and found herself in a room she'd never felt before but it screamed Max at her. She looked around and found three people staring at her and one of them was him; she'd finally found Max!
"Max" she whispered holding up her hand
"Whoa steady. You hit your head when you fell" he said taking her hand and sitting down on the edge of the bed next to her
"You need to rest and get some food down you" said the girl "Max and I have to go to school to keep our behaviour normal but Michael will stay with you" she said and pointed to the scruffy haired boy
"You must be Rath" she whispered sleepily "I'm glad you're here. You always protected me on Antar" she said then rolled over and fell asleep.

I might post more. I just have to go now because my sis gave me this manga and it's really interesting so I'm going off to read it.

Part Five

Walking through the halls of the corridor was a new experience for him, he felt so secure and in control of his powers. He was remembering discovering them on Antar and learning how to use them to the best of his abillities. He saw Kyle walking down the halls with his dad and he grinned at him
"Hey Kyle" he said with a grin and Kyle smiled back but Valenti put his hand on his son's shoulder and quickly pushed him away. Max watched them go then smirked
"Liz is at my house" he said telepathically making Kyle jump with surprise. Kyle looked over his shoulder at Max
"Max? What are you doing in my head?" he replied as he carried on walking off
"I dunno, I can do that now. I'm just testing the waters" he explained then shrugged "Liz was a bit beat up. I think Nasedo got at her before she got away"
"Is she okay? Can Alex and I go see her?" he asked and Max nodded
"Sure, she's resting up in my room" he said "Michael's looking after her" Kyle just nodded then turned to his dad
"Liz is here. She's in town, I'm going to find Alex and we're going to see her. She got beat up by Nasedo before she got away"
"Kyle, she's seen as a media icon. If this Nasedo guy has people believe she's a princess and she's suddenly gone missing he's going to do everything in his power to find her"
"Don't worry dad. We have a plan, by tonight he'll never get his hands on her again"

***

Alex opened his window and saw his mom sitting on his unslept in bed, he climbed inside and stumbled
"Mom? What are you doing?" he asked,
"I was afraid that you'd disappeared again," she said "Where were you last night?" she began
"I was out. I had stuff to do, it was important"
"Stuff to do with why you disappeared? Where were you all this time? Surely you must know what happened, why won't you tell me?" she asked taking his hand "I'm your mother, I want to know if anyone hurt my baby" he sat down and leaned back against his pillows
"Mom..." he started then paused "I was taken but I wasn't hurt. At least not by Liz"
"Liz?" she asked "Did she take you?"
"No, Liz was like us. She was innocent in all this, in fact she was more of a victim than we were"
"We? You weren't the only there?"
"No. Kyle Valenti was taken too" he explained and she gasped
"Oh. Yes, he went missing around the same time you did; poor dear his parents were really torn up about it"
"Well Kyle and I were taken and we were put with Liz. It was our job to look after her, but Nasedo; the man who took us. He was her guardian, he wanted her to learn how to behave so he could marry her off and get her pregnant so they could return home. When she slipped up he beat her severely and we couldn't do anything to stop him" Alex said coldly his fists tightening as the lights flickered. He sighed and closed his eyes and the lights stopped flickering
"Last night I was getting things ready for Liz to come here. I don't know if she managed to get away from Nasedo, I don't know if she's safe or not. When we were growing up Liz became like a sister to me and Kyle like a brother, I love them both and they made it bearable to not have you and dad in my life" he explained
"Well when Liz does come here, if she manages to get away then she can stay here for a while until she gets on her feet" Gloria said and Alex grinned then leaned forward throwing his arms around his mom
"Thanks mom. I love you" he said and she gasped then put her arms around him and couldn't help the tears pouring down her face.

Liz woke up in a unfamiliar room and found she was alone. She sat up and looked around, she was aching but she didn't feel that bad. She could smell the energy in this room but it wasn't hers; it was Max's. She was in Max's room! This was the house he owned! She checked herself in the mirror and smoothed down her hair was best she could and straightened the creases in her clothes then left in search of her soon to be husband. She walked down the corridor and down the stairs and heard someone humming, she smiled thinking it was Max. She clasped her hands together and bowed her head, despite how much she hated Nasedo she was thankful for making her have lessons in how to behave and forcing her to go to finishing school. She opened the door and found a woman to be in her mid forties baking at a cook top counter; she was disappointed that it wasn't Max but she shrugged. Maybe this servant Max had would know where he is
"Excuse me" she said quietly and the woman jumped in fright and spun round to see who had spoken
"Who are you! What are you doing in my house?" she demanded and Liz scowled
"Your house? No this is Max's house" she said "Does he know you make such outlandish claims?"
"Yes Max lives here. He's my son! Now what the hell are you doing in my house! Do you want me to call the police"
"You're not Max's mother. His mother sent him away to protect him!" she protested and Diane softened
"What?" she asked just as Michael came tearing down the stairs
"Liz!" he said grabbing hold of her
"Michael what is going on?" asked Diane, Liz turned expecting an answer as well. He looked back and forth trying to think of something when the door opened and in walked Max and Isabel followed by Kyle and Alex
"Kyle! Alex!" Liz cried excitedly
"Liz!" they both grinned and threw their arms around her "We were so worried about you!"
"I was worried about you too. I've never been on my own without you to protect me. It was scary"
"Max what on Earth is going on? Who is this girl?" Diane demanded
"This is Liz, she is my... fiance" he said and his mother's eyes nearly bugged out of her head
"What!" she shouted
"We're getting married. It's a long story"
"I don't care. I want to hear whatever excuse you were fed that makes you think you have to marry her!"
"Okay here's the truth mom" he said bitterly "A long time ago I was a King. On an alien planet called Antar, she was my wife, Isabel was my sister and the princess and Michael was my General. We were killed, cloned and sent here to start again. Liz is my wife and I'm going to make sure it carries over again into this life. God! You have no idea how I feel about her!"
"Aliens? Kings? This is drugs isn't it!" she cried "You're all on drugs!" the door opened again and in walked Nasedo
"Hello Liz" he said coldly "Thank you for finding Zan and the other Royals for me"
"No!" she cried, Alex and Kyle stepped in front of her
"That won't be necessary boys. She's coming with me whether you like it or not"

Part Six

Maria sat quietly and unmoving upright in the hospital bed she'd ended up in after the shooting. Her mom was by her side holding her hand, worried that she wouldn't wake up, Maria was just waiting for the moment her mom would leave or fall asleep so she could slip out. She felt so bound to something; it was pulling her and she could barely concentrate. She tried to picture what it was but ended up getting stuck in her own mind, she could sense and feel whatever was calling to her and was surprised to find it was that poor girl she'd helped earlier. But when Maria really thought about it she knew that the girl wasn't just any old girl but the Queen of a planet far, far away. A planet she was now bound to because Liz had saved her life! Amy sighed and in came Maria's cousin Sean
"Why don't you go get some coffee or something. I'll keep an eye on her while you're gone" he said and Amy nodded and left without a word. Sean stood near the door watching his cousin, he wanted to know what was going on with her as badly as the doctors did; no one knew what was wrong with her they just couldn't figure it out.
He dropped his styrofoam cup when she turned and looked at him, he took a step forward and she threw back the blanket, getting out of bed to retrieve her pants and pull them on. She tugged on a cardigan over her ugly hospital gown
"Don't tell mom. I have to go" she said moving towards the window
"Maria. Wait! Where are you going? You can't just go! You were shot! You're not well!"
"I'm fine. Please don't tell mom" she begged him
"I can't I'm sorry" he said then opened the door to call someone
"No!" she shouted throwing up her hand and the door exploded and Sean went flying, he landed at the nurses station out cold. Maria althought shocked at what she'd just done quickly went to the window opened it and climbed out and hurried away.

***

Liz lay on the bed after a servere beating, Nasedo was furious with her! He'd gagged her so she couldn't tell him to stop while he hurt her, she was barely on the edge of consciousness
"You ever try anything like this again and I'll kill you. I'm only keeping you alive now because you led me right to the other three. Finally I can go home" he said then left the room leaving her alone in agony.
She barely heard the window slide open and someone come in, she recognised the bond as something she shared with Alex and Kyle but she could tell it was a girl
"It's okay. I'll get you out of here" she the girl, she had a beautiful voice. Liz couldn't quite place her but she looked familiar
"Y-ur meh sista" she said, her speech was jumbled by her swollen face
"Yeah I am. Now shush or he'll come back and we'll be both screwed" she said as she helped Liz up off the bed "Can you walk?"
"N-nah" she said slowly and carefully shaking her head, Maria huffed then lifted Liz onto her back and went to the window and climbed out feet first
"Don't worry I'll take you to the others and they'll know what to do" said Maria as she hefted Liz on her back and began the long trek to the other side of Roswell.
It was coming up close to midnight by the time she arrived at Max's house and she sensed them all together, she felt immense relief when she knocked on the door and Isabel answered it
"Maria. What are you doing here?" she asked coldly, Maria just pushed passed Isabel and set Liz down on the couch
"Can you help her?" she asked looking at Max. Kyle and Alex came hurrying over to her and knelt down next to Maria by Liz's side. Max glanced at Maria and sensed that she was now different like Kyle and Alex, he smiled then held his hands out
"Welcome to the family Maria" he said as he began to heal Liz's injuries.
Isabel shut the door and sat down next to Michael as they watched Max heal Liz, she was barely awake when Max was done so Max just lifted Liz into his arms and carried her to his room leaving everyone else to talk amongst themselves
"How did you get her out of that high security hotel room?" asked Isabel, Maria held up her hand and it glowed then she lifted up her ratty hospital gown and showed them the glowing handprint
"She saved my life. I got shot and I was dying and she saved me. It was only right for me to return the favour"
"You seem to be taking this pretty well" Michael pointed out
"I had a lot of time to think about it" Maria replied then the front door opened and in walked Diane and Phillip Evans
"Oh uh hello kids. Isabel" she nodded to them "Isabel be a dear and put the oven on. I take it all of you are staying for dinner?" Kyle and Alex and Maria all exchanged glances then nodded
"Well Izzy, aren't you going to introduce us to your friends?" asked Phillip
"Oh uh this is Maria Deluca, Kyle Valenti and Alex Whitman my boyfriend" she said and he did a double take. Kyle smirked at Alex and Maria raised a brow
"Maria... that's an interesting style you've got" said Phillip, completely avoiding the fact that Isabel had brought a boy home; he would be having words later
"I um, it's not a style. It's uh a long story" she said blushing
"Deluca... that name sounds familiar, you're not related to Amanda Deluca are you?"
"Yeah that's my mom" said Maria
"Oh I used to be friends with her in high school, it's been such a long time since we spoke!" she said then went into the kitchen just as Isabel came back and perched herself next to Alex
"Isabel where's your brother?" asked Phillip
"He's in his room" Michael said on reflex "He's actually really busy studying for a... test so he didn't want us to disturb him"
"Oh thank you Michael" he said then glanced to the hall way where Max's room was "And are you staying for dinner?"
"Yes sir, if that's okay" he said trying to make an effort to fit in. Max took this opportune moment to come waltzing in
"She's asleep for now and... hi dad" he said stopping in his tracks "When did you get back"
"Just now... and whose asleep?" he asked, Max thought on his feet
"My baby. We got given one of those baby dolls to teach us about being parents. She's finally asleep" he said and Phillip nodded, he wasn't quite sure he believed what his son had just told him "That's why Maria's here. She's the other person looking after baby with me" Maria looked unsure of what to say to that so she just went along with what Max was spewing out. Diane came in a few minutes later and sat down on the couch
"So did you kids have a good day?" she asked and they all nodded too quickly, something which didn't sit right with Phillip. He knew that there was something going on here that they weren't telling him and he was sure he was going to find out.

***

Liz woke up and blinked around the room, she was surprised to feel that nothing hurt. It had been a long time since she woke up pain free, she recognised the room and remembered how she'd got here. Max, her Max had healed her. She went to the door and heard voices downstairs so she quietly crept to the dining room; everyone was sat squashed round a table and she saw two people she didn't recognise before. She guessed that they must be Max and Isabel's parents, and they both looked deeply upset by the way Kyle and Max were shamelessly flirting. Max paused and turned his head slightly in her direction and smiled
"What is it Max?" asked Diane
"I think I heard the door I'll be right back" he said and came towards her. She grabbed him and he pressed her against the wall
"How are you feeling?" he asked between intense kisses
"I haven't felt this good in a long time" she replied as she wrapped her arms around his neck "I saw you flirting with Kyle"
"Are you mad?" he asked but Liz shook her head
"Not at all. I don't care if you sleep with him, you're bonded with him after all. You can do what you like with him but you're my mate and I'm yours even though I'm now bonded to Maria as well as Alex and Kyle"
"You've slept with them" he said, not like he was nasty and accusing but just making a statement
"Yes I have. But I saved apart of myself for you Max; you and you alone" she whispered then kissed him again
"Let's get back" he said and quickly waved a hand over them to rid themselves of the evidence then he pushed the door open "Everyone I'd like you to meet my girlfriend Liz" he said and Diane did a double take
"Girlfriend?" gasped Phillip then he glanced to Kyle who just had a big grin on his face. He was back together with his best friend and now he had even more friends! He'd never been happier.

Part Seven

Liz sat in the office next to Max and held his hand. Phillip couldn't believe what he was hearing! This girl was a Romanian Princess that held no real power in her country anymore had fleed to Roswell and now she wanted help to divorce her legal guardian Edward Harding; both Max and Liz knew that would not stop Nasedo but if Ed cared about public appearance then it might give her a bit of a chance.
"I'll start the ball rolling. You do realise you'll have to become an emancipated minor your highness"
"Of course" she nodded, she glanced over at Max and smiled "Is there any way to put someone's name on my fortune?" she asked meaning all the millions Nasedo had gained over the last few decades, which was all in her name
"Yes there is. I could look into that too for you" said Phillip "Uh who did you have in mind?"
"My king" whispered Liz as she rubbed Max's hand
"Liz? Are you sure?" he asked and she nodded
"You're what I've been searching for. You're my family..." she turned back to Phillip "A long time ago before my parents died, they arranged for me to be married to Zan Akrimosov; he was the last of a line from Russia and France. When he was a baby he was kidnapped; he, his sister and his brother were all kidnapped. My legal guardian has spent the last few years trying to track them down and he found them"
"He did? Who are they?" asked Phillip, he was believing this and was dying to know who these missing royals were!
"Well you adopted two of them. Max is Zan and Isabel is his sister Vilandra"
"Oh..." he gasped "All this time... Max..."
"I've known for a while. Ever since Liz approached me, it took me a while to believe it. Isabel doesn't know yet, she knows that we had different names but not that we were royalty from Europe"
"I can't believe it. My children are a prince and princess"
"Ahem King and Princess" Max corrected and Phillip's eyes shot up in disbelief
"King?!" he cried and Max nodded, he sank back in his chair and put his hand to his head. What a time for revelations! "So uhh... what does this mean for you exactly Max? Are you going to take your title and well rule I guess?"
"I'll take my title but I don't know if I'm ready to go home to Europe yet. Maybe if they needed me I'd go but my home is here really"
"Your Highness? What about you? Do you plan to return to Romania?"
"Someday, again if they need me. But if I went I'd like to take my family with me" Phillip got worried then, what if Liz took his children away. He and Diane would be left with nothing! Surely Max and Isabel wouldn't abandon them! Would they?
"But for now I'll need a place to live and I want to enrole in the local high school"
"I'll try and arrange everything for you. But you may have to go round agencies yourself to get a place to live" he explained
"That's not a problem. Well I shall leave you to it and we'll go house hunting now. Thank you for all your help Mr Evans"
"Please, call me Phillip" he said as he shook her hand
"Well in that case please call me Liz" she smiled and Max and Liz left the office and went down the stairs talking
"That was a pretty good yarn you spun in there" he commented and she nodded
"I've been taught to think on my feet" she said confidently then grabbed his hand
"You know this won't stop Nasedo"
"I know that. There's very little I can do about that, but maybe it's a start. I have you to protect me now Max... at least until we bond then I'll be Ava again" she looked away across the street and saw two men tailing them "Does it hurt Max?"
"What?"
"Having both sides awake?" she asked turning her attention back to Max
"No, it doesn't. Not really, I feel more confident now and my powers are stronger than ever. I would never feel this content with myself if I'd just been one side or the other. Besides I have all my memories, I remember you Liz. I remembered how much I loved you" he stopped and took hold of both of her hands "How I still love you. More than anything!"
"Max..." she gasped "I love you too. I've waited so long for you"

***

Max shut his bedroom after a long hard day, he'd lied to his father. Again. Who in turn told those lies to his mom and now everyone in the family found out. Soon enough he'd expect the town to know, he didn't really care. He was a little worried about how they'd react but after that it didn't matter to him. He sighed and flicked on the light switch and saw his room had been tidied, normally it would bug him to know someone had been in his room going through his stuff but when he saw the bed and who was lying on it he couldn't help but grin
"You know breaking and entering is a crime" he pointed out
"Like I care. Your room was a mess, it would have been a crime to leave it the way it was" came the smug reply
"It's also a crime to look that good" said Max as he undid his shirt
"You know there's a present for you in the closet" Max turned his attention to his closet door
"There is?" he said excitedly and went over to open the door. His heart melted at what he saw. Liz was standing there looking nervous in a red silk night dress
"Y-You hate it don't you" she stuttered playing with her hair that fell down loose over her shoulders. Max grabbed hold of her and pulled her close kissing her like she'd never been kissed before. Kyle got off the bed and came over to them, he was wearing red silk boxers to match Liz's dress. Kyle took hold of Max and Liz's hands and pulled them to the bed
"Tonight's for you" he told them and they laid down together and began to make love. Kyle joined them helping them strength their love for each other so they could be once again bonded in marriage. As they moved together their skin began to glow until it shone brighter and brighter and emanated outwards till it filled the entire room with light. It bathed Kyle and he felt what they were feeling. As they reached their climax everything seemed to slow down and the light intensified until it exploded, the light rained down on them in little pieces, the power had been knocked out and now they lay together sated. Max pulled Liz into his arms and Kyle laid pressed against her back holding both of them and feeling content with his Queen and his King. He loved them both!

***

The next morning Diane quietly opened the door to her son's room after waking Isabel up for her to get ready for school. Diane got the fright of her life when she saw Max in bed with Liz and Kyle, the thing that scared her the most was how comfortable, happy and at ease they slept. Of all the times she checked on her son at night she'd never seen that
"Max" she whispered gently shaking him awake "Max, it's time to get up" Max jerked up roughly and held his hand out like a weapon
"Touch her and I'll kill you!" he said coldly and for a moment Diane didn't recognise the man sitting before her. She gasped and Max calmed down enough to see it wasn't Nasedo just his mom "Mom, I'm sorry. I had a bad dream" he covered quickly. He was unashamed that two other people were in his bed with him and she didn't seem that upset
"You best wake them up. I take it they'll be going to school too?" she said and he nodded
"Thanks mom" he said, grateful that she hadn't blown a gasket on him!
"Yeah, just don't make a habit of it" she said and left the room.
