The happiest moments of your life are the ones that can never be replaced. The moments you remember are so happy that a smile   creeps across your face, and your eyes light up. The moment of your life that can be cherished. That is the second when you know your the most happiest. Liz Parker looked into Max Evans eyes the day they married, and knew she felt that moment.
 
As Liz looked at her new home, she realized that life was going to be different for her. She had come alive, became a different person. She was ready to start a new life with Max, have children even if they did come out on the alien side.  Liz pulled out her Journal and sat in the middle of what would soon be her living room.
 

Dear Journal -
 
It’s the beginning of a new life, I'm Liz Parker Evans. It’s been a while since I have kept a journal,but I thought it would be the time to write down what I feel. Lately, I have felt a lot. Getting married was one of the most wonderful things in my life I have ever done. It’s that moment you will always remember that is priceless.

Max came into the room and saw Liz he sat next to her.
“What are you doing? You know your sitting in the middle of our soon to be living room.” Max said, smiling at her  knowing that it’s their house.
  
“I know, I thought I would sit here and write, and think about what I am going to put in our soon to be living room”

“How about furniture you know a couch?” Max said sarcastically. Liz smiled and punched him in the shoulder.

“What was that for?” Max asked.

“Because you are being a jerk” Liz said as she got up.

“I can’t wait for everyone to come over.  Maria can bring Michael, and Isabel could bring Jessie. It’s going to be great to see them” Max said admiring the place.

“Yeah I can’t wait ether” Liz said looking around.

“You know, when we get settled in we will have to christenthe place” Max said with a smile on his face.

“We will, don’t worry, and is that all you think about now since got married” Liz said sitting on his lap.

“Yes and No” Max said kissing her.

“I just can’t get over the fact that your parents actually gave us the money to buy this place” Max looked up at her and smiled. He had that look that said he wasn’t telling her something.

“What? Is there something you are not telling me?” Liz asked.

“Part of the money was from my parents, the other half was from your parents” Max said.

“What?! You mean my father actually gave you money?” Liz asked.

“Well no...Your mom gave it to me without your dad knowing” Max said.

“I can’t believe this!” Liz said as she got up and started pacing.

“It’s not a big deal Liz”

“Actually it is! Max my father hates you!” She said with tears in her eyes.

“Yeah I know, but that’s in the past, we are starting over now. Were married and nothing will change that ever?  Your my wife, and will be for the next fifty years or maybe even longer” Max said as he brushed her hair away from her face.

“Were actually going to live that long?” Liz said laughing.

“Yes we are” Max said.

“I have to go to the Crashdown and get some things from my room” Liz said kissing her new husband on the cheek.

“I hope its something to spruce the house up with?” Max said as he followed her out the door.
 

The hotel room wasn’t what she fancied, but it would have to do.   As long as she worked on her powers, and was able to change the dollars she had into 10’s 20's. Or what ever she wanted she would be able to have a place to stay a while.
 
 Her Blond Curly hair fell in her face as she examined the room.  She reached into her pockets, and pulled out a picture she forgot she had. It was a picture of max. A picture she had taken when they were actually together. She held the picture up and looked at it.

“He has no idea what I can do” Tess said as she crumbled the picture up into a ball in palm of her hand and squeezed tightly. Her hand lit dark red.The picture turned to ash falling to floor like dust.
 
She couldn’t wait to reveal herself to Max and Liz.  She wanted to see the face of Liz parker.When she finally realized that she had been mind warped into thinking that she was dead. Tess plopped down on the bed. She was tired; she had been on the move for weeks now. 
 
Liz gathered some things from her old room, she noticed her father standing in there door way. She looked at him and gave him a half smiled.

“If your here to give me a lecture save it. I am happy with Max” Liz said as she stuffed some of her things into a bag.

“Are you really? Liz you just got out of high school, you have such a good future ahead of you. Why are you wasting it all away on him?” Her father asked, trying to get through to her.
 
 Liz wasn’t listening. Why was it that her mother understood everything and her father didn’t?

“I know you don’t want me to leave. I know that you don’t want to loose the only thing you cherish. I'm not your little girl any more. I'm grown up, married, and starting my own life”

“I know, but Max isn’t right for you” Her father yelled.

“I'll be the judge of that” Liz said as she headed down stairs.
 
 Max waited for in the Crashdown. As Liz came into the Crashdown he had seen the look on her face. She had a run in with her father.

“Is everything ok?” He asked Liz.

“Yeah everything is fine, it couldn’t be better” Liz said leaning into
 Max for a kiss.

“OK then lets go” Max said as they exited the Crashdown.
 
 
*~Two~*
 
Max and Liz lighted candles around their new place. It was cozy even though they didn’t have electric yet orfurniture.

“You know Isabel and Jessie said we could stay at their place until we get everything settled here. “ Max said as he spread the <a href="sleeping%20bag" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="sleeping%20bag" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="sleeping%20bag" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="sleeping%20bag" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="sleeping%20bag" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="sleeping%20bag" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="sleeping%20bag" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="sleeping%20bag" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="sleeping%20bag" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="sleeping%20bag" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="sleeping%20bag" onmouseover="window.status='sleeping bag'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sleeping bag</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sleeping bag</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sleeping bag</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sleeping bag</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sleeping bag</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sleeping bag</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sleeping bag</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sleeping bag</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sleeping bag</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sleeping bag</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sleeping bag</a> bag and blanket out on the floor

“I know, but I would like spend the night here, in our home” Liz said as she smacked him with a pillow. He tackled her down trying to rustle the pillow away. He raised his hand with a slight wave it was across the room.

“ Hey,you dont play very fair!” Max said picking up the pillow from across the way.

“You don’t either Mr.Evans”

“I always play fair” Max said with a pout.

“Yeah right, like using alien powers to get what you want is playing fair” Liz said taking the pillow back from him again.

“Now its war” Max said as he picked up the other pillow and started smacking Liz with it.

“Stop!” She laughed and screamed. Max knew exactly where her weakness was. She was ticklish just about anywhere.  Max started tickling her, until he had her pinned to the floor.  Liz was laughing so hard she couldn’t breathe.

“Max! Stop!” Liz screamed.

“Give up!” Max said as he kept tickling her.

“Ok! I surrender!” Liz screamed. Liz didn’t hear the soft knock on the front door.The front door opens. Max's parents walked right in on them.  They looked at Liz and Max with shock on their faces.

“Umm, the door was open” Mrs Evans said looking at them. Max quickly got up off the floor.

“Mom, what are you doing here?”  Max said trying to make himself look presentable. He motioned for Liz to get up.

“We thought we would stop by and check to see if everything was ok here. Isabel said you two would be staying the night here”

“Yeah, everything is fine mom” Max said looking at Liz and smiling.

“It looks that way” Mr.Evans said.

“Well, we will go then” Mrs. Evans said as they headed out the door. He walked his parents to the door realizing that this was one of the top 5 most embarrassing moments in his life. They laughed out loud for about five minutes realizing that they almost gave his parents a show that they would never forget.

“Let’s hope Maria and Michael don’t drop by” Liz said as she wrapped her arm around Max's neck and kissed him passionately.

“Let’s hope,” Max said kissing her neck.
 
 *******
 
The next morning -
 
Tess headed into Roswell; she kept a low profile so that no one would recognize her. She used her powers to change her Eye color and hair eye color. She looked at herself in the mirror, she never thought about having brown hair and brown eyes. It was something different for a change.
 
  The Bus pulled up to the station and everyone started getting off. Tess got off the bus; she never really thought that she would be coming back to Roswell. She could wait to see her son and Max again.
 
Liz woke up in Max's arms smiling, 'He is such a blanket hog' she thought as she pulled the blanket up over her trying to get warm. Max turned and woke up, noticing that Liz had all the covers. Max thought looking down at Liz ‘I could wake up like this forever and still couldn’t get enough of her’ 
 
“You know, I had the most wonderful dream” Max replied softly.

“Really, what was it?” Liz asked as she cuddled up closer to him.

“I dreamt that I married the most beautiful women in the world.” Max said with a smiled from ear to ear.
 
“Anybody I know?” Liz asked smiling
 
“Well, she has long brown hair that I love to run my fingers thru.  And these amazing dark brown eyes that can see into my soul. Have you seen her? ”
 
Hummmm, Liz said tapping her chin.

“I think your dream justmight have come out be true Max” She said softly.

“I think it did too” Max said kissing her.
 
***********
 
Maria couldn’t take this much longer. She pounded on Michael’s apartment door.

“Michael!” she yelled through the door.

“What! It’s like 9am Maria” Michael said as he opened the door.

“Did you forget something” Maria said rushing into the apartment.

“What could I have possibly forgotten now Maria” Michael replied.

 “That maybe, we were suppose to have breakfast together an hour ago!” Maria said standing in front of him furious.

“Maria, its just breakfast” Michael said.

“It’s more then just breakfast Michael; this is the fifth time you've done this to me! You said you would meet me and you don’t. I wait for hours, and you don’t show up! And then I find you here sleeping!” Maria said as she started getting mad.

“Look Maria, I've had a lot of things going on right now” Maria heard something and turned.She saw another woman wearing a baggy shirt and <a href="sweat%20pants" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="sweat%20pants" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="sweat%20pants" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="sweat%20pants" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="sweat%20pants" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="sweat%20pants" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="sweat%20pants" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="sweat%20pants" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="sweat%20pants" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="sweat%20pants" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="sweat%20pants" onmouseover="window.status='sweat pants'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sweat pants</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sweat pants</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sweat pants</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sweat pants</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sweat pants</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sweat pants</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sweat pants</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sweat pants</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sweat pants</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sweat pants</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">sweat pants</a> coming towards them.

“So is this her?” The girl said as she went to the fridge.

“You…. jackass! I knew it! I knew it! That’s why you've been like this!”

“Maria your jumping to conclusions, she's just a friend”

“Yeah right, stick a fork in it Guerin were done! Its over! Bye,Bye” Maria said as she left the apartment crying. Michael closed the door behind her.
 
“Wow” The girl said.

“Shutup!” Michael said.

“I can’t believe that she would actually think that you and I were.....That’s just weird”

“Jessica, did it ever occur to you not to come out of the bedroom when she was here” Michael said shaking his head

“No not really, why didn’t you tell her about me?” She asked

“Because I don’t want anyone to know that you are in town”

“Why? Because, I’m your alien sister from another planet?” She asked rolling her eyes.

“Exactly” He said

“So, you never told Max and Isabel about me? You never told them about the visions you had” Jessica asked shaking her head in anger.

“No I didn’t, I didn’t think they needed to know” Michael said as he reached into the fridge and grabbed a Snapple.

“Wow, now you screwed things up with your girl! Nice!” Jessica said.

“Now I have to fix everything with her because of you”

“Well If you would have told her about me in the first things wouldn’t have been so screwed up!” Jessica yelled as Michael grabbed his jacket and headed out the door.
 
Maria stood in front of Max and Liz's new place.  She knocked on the door softly. Liz heard the knock and went to see who it was.

“Maria, what are you doing here?” Liz asked seeing the pain in her eyes. She knew something had happened with Michael “What did Michael do now?” Liz asked.

“I went over to his place and there was some girl there” Maria said crying.

“What?” Liz said concerned.

“Yeah and he tried to tell me she was just a friend”

“Maybe she was Maria.”

“Liz, I just think that maybe Michael and I need some time apart. I need someone who is reliable and better for me” Maria said.
 
 Liz hugged Maria tightly.

“I will send Max to go talk to Michael” Liz said as she smiled at Maria.

“I don’t know Liz, I think me and Michael are really over this time”

“Don’t say that” Liz said. Max came to the door, and noticed Maria and the look on her face.

“Michael troubles? I'll go talk to him” Max said as he grabbed his jacket.

“Thank you” Liz said softly smiling, kissing Max as he went out the door.
 
*********** 
 
Tess stood in front of the Crashdown Cafe. She was starving and she needed a bit to eat. She glanced into the Crashdown and saw Michael eating a burger. 'He will recognize me for sure' Tess thought.
 
 Slowly, she walked in and took a seat in the back. Michael didn’t even glance at her. As she sat in the back booth she felt him. It was that familiar feeling that she knew. 'Max' she whispered out loud.
 
 Max came into the Crashdown and walked past her. He sat across from Michael in the booth. Tess watched Max closely. He felt a sensation; it felt so familiar to him. He turned and looked and glanced at Tess. Then he glanced back at Michael.

“We need to talk about Maria” Max said.

“What about her Maxwell” Michael asked.

“She is upset about you having another girl in your apartment”

“I told her she was just a friend who needed a place to stay”

“She apparently doesn’t believe that” Max said.

“Max, I wouldn’t cheat on Maria. Jessica is just a friend.”

“A friend? Why does it seem like there is more you’re not telling me?”

“Because there is and I don’t want to talk about it” Michael said getting angry.

“Tell me Michael so Maria doesn’t come over to our place crying” Max pleaded.

“Ok, if it will shut you up! Jessica is my sister” He yelled quickly.
 
Max looked at him confused. How could Michael have a sister? Max thought.

“What?” Max asked.

“She's my sister, she’s an alien too. I started having these visions and dreams from the past, from our past lives on Antar.She was part of it, and the dreams led her to me”

“Why didn’t you tell me about this?” Max asked

“Because I didn’t think you needed to know” Michael said.
 
Tess watched them closely, where was her son? Something wasn’t right, she just new it.  She wanted to run up to Max and tell him everything. Tell Him that she was here, and that she wanted him back in her life.  Max kept getting that familiar sensation. It was the sensation he only got when he was with Tess. It was driving him crazy.

“We will talk about this later. But make sure that you make things right with Maria” Max told him.

“Yeah, yeah, sure Maxwell” Michael said as Max got up and left.
 
 Tess followed Max out the Crashdown.  Max couldn’t shake the feeling he was getting. It was so strong and intense. Tess knew he could feel her. Now all she needed to do was use her powers. I can play with his mind and feelings. I know I can get you back easy.She thought to herself as smile, started to spread across her face.

“I'll get you back” She said softly as she walked away.
 
Max pulled up into the driveway and sat in car for a few minutes, all the way home all he could think about was Tess.  He couldn’t be thinking about Tess, not now, not ever. She's dead; Max hadn’t thought about her in the longest time. Tess wasn’t even an issue between him and Liz now.
 
 But the feelings and sensations he was feeling were triggering his thoughts about her. 'Maybe if I just be with my wife, these thoughts will stop Max thought as he got of the car.
 
  He opened the door and found Liz In the house with radio playing off batteries she had brought. The radio was blaring the sounds of Ashlee Simpson's ‘Love for Me’.
 
Max figured it was a CD and not the actual radio. Liz was dancing around the living. He watched and smiled. Liz sensed him watching, and turned to see him. She laughed and smiled and turned the CD player.

“Hi” She said brushing her hair away from her face.

“Having fun?” Max asked.

“Yes” Liz said as she quickly kissed him.

“You know, we seriously need to get some stuff for the place”

“Well, I have a feeling your parents are taking us furniture shopping” Liz said

“What about your parents huh?” Max asked playfully.

“Well,my mom is getting us some stuff from my room I couldn’t bring” Liz said as she smiled and took Max's hand. Liz could tell something was bothering him.
 
  “Something is bothering you” she said brushing his bangs away from his forehead.

“It’s nothing, It’s just what Michael said” He lied, it was something, but it didn’t have anything to do with Michael. Max wanted to tell Liz what he was feeling but was afraid to.

“What about Michael?” Liz said looking at max with concern.

“Apparently, he has a sister we don’t know about” Max said.

“Sister? Michael has a sister? Yeah right, you’re pulling my leg” Liz laugh.

“No I'm not; she was the girl Maria caught in his apartment this morning”

“Is she alien?” asked Liz

”I guess” Max said scratching his head

“We have to tell Maria”

“I told Michael to talk to her”
 
************
 
Michael called Maria on her <a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="cell%20phone" onmouseover="window.status='cell phone'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">cell phone</a> phone and told her to meet him at his apartment. Maria knocked on the apartment door softly. Michael opened the door.

“We need to talk” He said as Maria came in.

“If it’s about your new girl friend I really don’t want to hear it” Maria said not wanting to look Michael in the eye.

“Look Maria she isn’t my new girl friend, she's my sister” Maria looked at him confused. She laughed and started to leave.

“That’s the lamest excuse I have ever heard” Maria laugh.

“It’s the truth, I wouldn’t lie about this” Michael argued

“Michael It’s been a while and maybe we should just go our separate ways” Maria said as she left the apartment.
 
  Michael slammed the door shut. Jessica came out of the room and plopped down on the couch.

“Things didn’t go so well did they space boy” Jessica said as she flipped the channels on the TV with her powers.

“Shut up” Michael said.

“Maybe, I should talk to her” Jessica asked

“No, you will only make things worse” Michael said.

“I don’t think so, I can reason with her trust me” Jessica said winking at Michael.
 
Tess climbed up the fire escape on the side of the Crashdown and headed towards Liz's old room. She climbed up and looked in. Most Of the stuff in the room was gone. Tess needed info; she needed to know if Max and Liz were married.
 
 If they weren’t, then she need to know what Max did with their son, She pulled the window opened and climbed in.  She started pulling out drawers. She was looking for anything that could help her. Glancing over at the dresser,she noticed a picture in a frame.
 
Reaching over picking it up to examine it closer, what she saw made her see red. Liz was in a beautiful <a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="white%20dress" onmouseover="window.status='white dress'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">white dress</a>' with wreath of flowers in her hair and Max was next to her in the photo wearing a suit and tie. 
 
 Instantly,Tess got a flash. She saw Max and Liz in a church getting married. She wanted to throw the picture across the room. She heard footsteps coming up the stairs,and quickly hid in the bathroom.
 
Liz came into the room with Max. She started gathering things to take with her.

“Liz I thought you got everything” Max said. Liz picked up their wedding picture and held it tightly.

“There were a few things I forgot” Liz said showing him their wedding picture.

“That will go good on our mantel” Max said taking the framed picture from her. Suddenly,he was hit with a flash. He    saw someone holding the picture, and it wasn’t Liz. It was women, but he couldn’trecognize her. She noticed that weird look on Max's face again.

“What’s wrong?” Liz asked.

“Ohh, nothing I was just thinking about how beautiful you looked that day” He said admiring the picture.
 
  Tess listened to them for a moment. Liz grabbed everything she could possibly grab, and they headed out. But, something stopped her, she could sense something.
 
 Max took her hand as they headed down stairs. Liz shook the feeling. As they came to the bottom of the stairs they bumped into Liz's father.

“What are you two doing here?” He asked.

“Just getting some more stuff for our new place” Liz said.  Max had already got most of his stuff the other day, apparently Liz had a lot more stuff then he did.

“New place?” Mr.Parker asked.

“Yeah, our new place Dad, you know we are married” Liz said sarcastically

“Lizzie we need to talk”

“Dad, I don’t want to talk. I know what this is about” She said.

“Liz, I'm going to wait out in the car” Max said as he let go of her hand and took her stuff.

“Liz, you are making the biggest mistake of your life” Mr. Parker stated angrily.

“Well,that’s my problem” Liz said in a huff.

“I know your mother agrees with all this, but I don’t!” Mr.Parker yelled.

“Dad there is nothing you can do!” yelled Liz

“What makes you think this marriage will last?” He asked looking at her in disappointment.

“I have to go” Liz said walking away from her father her mother came down from upstairs.

“Leave her alone, she is actually happy” her mother said.

“Max isn’t right for her” He stated

“Let her make her own decisions” Mrs.Parker said she watched her husband stomp off in anger.
 
Tess needed a plan, and she needed one fast. She threw her stuff down on the hotel bed. She went into the bathroom and looked at her self in the mirror. She kept thinking, what if she used her powers to make herself look like Liz.
 
Then she could lure Max back into her arms. She would be able to get her family back and ruin Liz all at once.Tess rubbed her hands together smiling in her evil way. you better watch out <a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='<a href="little%20miss" onmouseover="window.status='little miss'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a>'; return true;" onmouseout="window.status=''; return true;">little miss</a></ perfect because here I come, as she waved her hand across her face. Instantly, her reflection changed to Liz's reflection.

“Perfect” She said smiling as she changed back to her own reflection.
 
Max sat in the car waiting.  His mind kept creeping back to Tess. Liz came out of the Crashdown and Jumped into the car. 

“Let’s go babe” She said as Max started up the engine.

“So what did your father have to say?” Max asked curiously.

“He absolutely hates you” Liz said.

 “I know “Max said.

“Don’t worry he will get over it. Because were married now and nothing will change that” Liz said smiling at him as she reached over and kissed him on the cheek.

“Did I ever tell you how cute you are?” Liz said kissing his neck.

“No, Keep talking” he said smiling as he drove.

“You are so adorable and good looking” Liz said kissing his face.

“You know, I am trying to drive here if you don’t stop we might crash.” Max said giving into temptation.

“Were almost home” Liz said smiling.
 
Tess, Wanted to play with Max's head so bad. She closed her eyes and used her powers to play with his mind.
 
Max pulled up into the drive way and parked the car. He leaned over and started to kiss Liz, as they kissed Max opened his eyes and saw Tess.
 
  He was starting to get freaked out.  He backed away quickly. Liz looked at him concerned.

“Max?” She said softly. Max looked over and still saw Tess. He closed his eyes tightly, and looked back at Liz. This time he saw Liz.

“What happened Max? Why did you pull away?” Liz asked.

“No reason” he said trying to straighten his mind out. Something or someone was playing games with him.

“There has to be a reason why you pulled away” Liz started to get worried.

“It’s nothing Liz. I want you so bad” Max said instantlykissing her.

“Max” Liz whispered.

“I Love you Liz you know that right?” Max said.

“Max, right now you are really starting to freak me out”

“Sorry, I just have a lot on my mind” Max said as he rubbed his eyes and got out of the car.

“Maybe, If you relax everything will be ok” Liz said following him to the door.

“Maybe” he said as he unlocked the door. He opened the door. Hey, there is furniture in the living room. I wonder how it got here.
 

“Oh, my god!” Liz said looking around. Max picked up the note and read it out loud.

“We thought we would surprise you, we hope you like it”   Max said out loud.

“Was this from your parents?” Liz asked.

“Yep, I know my mothers handwriting any where” Max chuckled

“They are being way to nice” Liz said.

“Apparently” Max said plopping down on the couch.

“Now, all we need is a bed for our bedroom and we will be almost set. Remind me to thank your parents tomorrow” Liz said with a smile

“Yeah” Max replied.
 
Tess wanted to take Liz's face and bash it in. She decided to keep playing with Max some more.  Liz went out to the car to get her stuff. Max laid across the new couch.  He looked over and saw Tess coming towards him. He jumped; he knew something seriously was wrong now.

“It’s been a while Max” She whispered as she curled up on the couch next to him.

“You are not real your died” Max said pulling away from her starting to freak out.

“I'm real, I'm here and I can give you so much more then what she can give you” Tess whispered in his ear.  She leaned in and started kissing him.  Max couldn’t help himself.  The front door slammed shut, and Max came out of the trance he was in.

“Max” Liz said softly.

“Yeah” He replied.

“Now, I know something is bothering you” Liz said getting worried.
 
Max couldn’t look her in the eyes. Liz sat down next to him and brushed his bangs away from his face.

“Tell me what’s bothering you Max” Liz said taking his hand and placing it in hers.

“Nothing, I think I'm just tired” Max replied rubbing his eyes.

“Ok, for a moment there I thought it was something serious” Liz replied.

“Lets go up stairs and see if my parents got us a bed too” Max said taking her by the hand and pulling her upstairs.  They went into their bedroom;he was disappointed when there was no bed in the room.

“I'm guessing that’s something we have to buy” Liz replied laughing.

“I was so wanting to jump into bed and curl up in nice clean sheets with you” Max said.

 “That would be nice. I can get my parents to bring my bed over here from my room”

“You think they would do that?” Max asked.

“I'm sure they would” Liz said wrapping her arms around him.

“Or, we could use the little money we have and buy a new bed” Max said leaning in to kiss her.

“Sounds like a plan. You know I am starving” Liz said.

“Really?” Max said smiling.

“I could use something to eat.”

“Well, we could swing by Izzy's and see if she gives us some food and maybe a bed to sleep in”

“Sounds good to me” Liz took Max by the hand and pulled him back down the stairs. As they opened the door, Max noticed Liz's father on the other side of the door.

“Dad what are you doing here?” Liz asked.

“Your mother told me about the money she used to partly buy this house” Mr. Parker replied.

“She did?”  Liz replied.

“Yeah and I wanted to talk to Max alone for a moment” he said as Max stepped out the door. Hewasn’t sure what was going on. But he knew that her father had something important to say.
 
 Liz watched out the window as her father and husband talked.  She wondered if her father was now going to change his ways and actually except Max for who was and what he was.  She wanted him to also except the fact that she was grown up now and living her own life.

“I Know what this is about Mr. Parker” Max said softly.

“Do you really? I want what’s best for my daughter. And I thought long and hard today. I come to the conclusion, that if you are what my daughter wants then I can’t do anything about it.” Mr.Parker said with regret.

“So, you are ok with me and Liz being married now?” Max asked.

“I'm ok with it, But if you put my daughter in any kind of danger what so ever. I will come after you Max” Mr.Parker said, holding his hand out so Max could shake it. Max shook his hand and smiled.

“Thank you” He said softly.

“Welcome to the family Max” Mr.Parker said as he walked away.
 
 Max went back into the house with a smile on his face. Heknew that was a good thing.

“So, what did he say?” Liz asked. Max smiled once more and walked towards her.

“Well,it’s hard to say” Max said laughing.

“Don’t play around with me Max”

“Ok, he said that he accepts the fact that I am part of your life permanently, and that I am welcomed into the family” Liz smiled.
 
She jumped into Max's arms. She kissed him all over the face and smiled.

“I knew he would come around eventually” Liz said smiling.
 
****************

Maria felt like she had just been hit by ten ton semi truck. She laid her head down on the table. Isabel walked up to her wondering what was wrong.

“Michael problems again?” Isabel asked, assuming that was what it was.

“As always” Maria said as she started to cry.

“It must be serious this time you are crying” Isabel said as she sat down at the table in the Crashdown.

“Yeah, I caught Michael with another girl in his apartment” Maria said through her tears.

“What?” Isabel said with concern.

“Yeah, he tried to tell me she was just a friend. And get this; He called me to come meet him at his apartment.He tried to tell me this girl was his sister” Maria said laughing.

“Did you believe him?” Isabel asked.

“Of course not! I mean I must have known this was going on because he would always be late or never show up when I call him” Maria said in anger.

“I'll go talk to Maria.”

“Thank you Isabel”
 
**********

Liz and Max are laying down on their new couch.  He closed his eyes and tried to sleep.

“So, I'm guessing the whole staying at Isabel's isn’t going to happen?” Max asked.
“This couch is so comfortable and besides I ordered some food from the Crashdown. It should be here any moment. I think Maria was going to send it over” Liz replied.

“Well, If I fall asleep I wont be able to eat” Max replied as he ran his fingers through her hair.

“Well then don’t fall asleep” Liz said laughing.
 

Maria took Liz’s food that she ordered to her house. She stood in front of her new house. She knocked on the door. Liz heard the knock.

“Foods here” Liz said as she got up and kissed Max on the cheek quickly. He slowly started to fall back asleep.

“Thanks Maria” Liz said taking the food and giving her the money
.
“Liz I'm so happy that you Max are together. Unlike me and Michael” Maria said as she started crying again.

“Did you talk to Michael?” Liz asked with sorrows in her eyes.
“Yeah, and just gave me some lame excuse about the girl being his sister”

“And you didn’t believe him?”

“No, I didn’t Liz, Do you?”

“Ok, Maria you need to go talk to him again and work this out. It is really not as bad as you think it is, I promise.”

“No Liz, I'm done with Michael Guerin.  I need a change something different”

“Ok Maria if that’s what you need. Thanks for dropping off the food” Liz said as she hugged her best friend.

“We need to have a girl’s night out sometime soon” Maria said happily.

“Yeah, we do don’t we” Liz said smiling, As she was trying to remember the last one that they actually had.

“I'll call you” Maria hugged her once again and left.

 Liz went back into the house and found Max asleep on the couch. He looked so peaceful she didn’t want to disturb him.
 
Isabel knocked on Michael's apartment door. Jessica answered the door in a huff.
 
“Can I help you?” She asked.

“Yeah who are you? And is Michael here?” Isabel asked getting a little annoyed.
 
“Ummno, Michael isn’t here, but I'm Jessica she said with a smile. Let me guess your Isabel. It’s so great to finally meet you” She says
 
 “Ok, If Michael comes back please tell him to call me”

“I will” Jessica said rolling her eyes, as she shut the door on Isabel.

“That must be her” Isabel quickly pulled out her cell phone and dialed Max's cell number.
 
Max woke up to the vibrating ring in his pocket. He quickly got up and pulled his phone out of his pocket
.
“Hello” Max said rubbing his eyes.

“Max it’s Isabel” She said.

“What’s going on Iz” Max said through the phone.

“I'm standing outside of Michael's apartment. Who is the girl staying with him?”

“Umm,It’s a long story Iz” Max said sleepily.

“Tell me Max, you know something don’t you?”

“Yeah I do, but I'll wait until Michael tells you. It’s his secret to tell Iz.”

“Maria is all upset about this” Isabel said waving her hands around like a mad person.

“I know she is believe me, she was over here twice already. They broke up because of her”

“Well,when Michael gets here you, me, and him are going to have a nice little chat” Isabel said as she hung up.
 
 Liz came into the living with a plate full of food. She sat down next to Max.

“Was that Isabel?” She asked as she handed Max a hot French Fry.

“Yeah, she apparently met Michael's sister. I have to go over there later” He sighed.

“But first your going to spend some more quality time with me right?” Liz said stuffing French fries in his mouth.

“Of course” Max said Leaning over to kiss her.

“Whatever was bothering you earlier isn’t bothering you now” Liz said with concern.  She loves every moment she spends with Max,now that they are married.
 
Tess could actually remember Max's cell number. She picked up the phone and dialed his cell number. It rang, and rang, and rang.
 
Max heard his cell phone going off again. He starts to reach for his phone. Liz looked him, knowing that their special moment is shot. She grabs his hand letting him know that she hates being interrupted by the ringing of his cell phone.
 
“Don’t answer it” Liz said kissing him again.

“What if it’s Iz or Michael” Max said starting to get worried.

“They will leave a voice mail” The phone kept ringing.

“I have to get it” Liz laid back on the couch in frustration. As Max grab the phone and answered it in a huff.

“Hello” Max could hear someone breathing on the other end,but there is no responding.

Tess loved hearing Max's deep sexy voice.

“Hello” Max said again. Tess hung up the phone. He hung the phone up and laid it on the floor. No one was there it must have been the wrong number.

“Now where were we?” Max said Grabbing Liz kissing her passionately.
 
*******************
 
Later that night -
Max stood outside of Michael’s apartment with Isabel. Michael just came walking up to the door and noticed Max and Isabel.

“What the hell are you two doing here?” He asked.

“We need to talk to you about Jessica” Isabel said.

“What about her? And how do you know about her Isabel?” Michael asked.

“I came over here earlier to talk to you and she answered the door. How come you didn’t tell me or Max about the flashes you were having and about this long lost relative” Asked Isabel sounding hurt.
 
“Does it ever occur to you I don’t have to tell you everything that goes on” Michael yelled.
 
Tess couldn’t stay cooped up in the hotel room much longer. She was getting restless. She needed to get her plan into action.  She knew exactly what she wanted to do. Shefigured out where Max and Liz were living by the handy powers she has. She left the hotel and headed back into Roswell.
 

Jessica stood in front of the Crashdown Cafe admiring the alien space ship that was sticking out of the side of the building.

“Wow!” Jessica said looking up at the spaceship. As she walked up to the door, she notices that Maria was cleaning the tables getting ready to put the chairs up.
She knocked on the glass window. Maria looked up at her and smiled and replied “Sorry were closed!”

“Maria we need to talk” Jessica said through the door. She went to the door and let her in.

“Does it look like I really want to talk to you right now?” Maria said as she turned and faced Jessica. She could see that she wanted to beat her face in.

“Look, Space boy and I are not sleeping together. I'm his sister”

“Yeah right, Michael doesn’t have a sister” Maria said rolling her eyes.

“Yeah he does, he's always had a sister, he just didn’t know it until now” Jessica snap back

“How do I know your not lying?” Maria said as she put more chairs on the tables.

“Why would I lie about that? What exactly would I gain? He will tell you everything you will need to know. I don’t have to prove myself to you” Jessica said as she was leaving.
 
Michael explained everything to Isabel and Max. Shecouldn’t believe it.

“Why is she here? Why now? Everything has been quiet” Isabel said pacing around theapartment.

“She has been helping me with powers lately. I don’t think she is out to get us or anything” Michael replied.

“I want to meet her” Isabel said.

“Yeah so do I” Max replied.
 
 Just then the apartment door opened and Jessica walked in. Sheglanced around at everyone; they looked at her as if she was in trouble.
 

“What ever it is I did, or supposedly did I didn’t do it I swear.” Jessica said with her hands up.

“You didn’t do anything” Michael replied.

“Oh good, I see that we have the Mighty King and his sister” Jessica said with a smile.

“You know about us? Our past lives?” Max asked looking at her.

“Of course I do. I was there I know everything” She said proudly.

“Everything?” Max asked.

“Yep, The whole Tess thing, the destiny's, and everything in between” Jessica said as she plopped down on the couch.

“When you say the whole Tess thing, what do you mean?” Isabel asked sitting next to her.

“Well, I know that Tess is complete psycho. And that she would have done anything to get what she wanted. Even If it meant to....” Jessica stopped herself. She was saying way too much.She was letting the words spill out like vomit.

“Even,if she had to what?” Isabel asked making her continue.

“Nothing,never mind, Look I was there I know everything, so what’s the big deal” Jessica shrugged.

“We want to know, because there are so many things we don’t know.” Isabel stated.

“Yeah, and there are lots of things that you shouldn’t know period” Jessica said as she got up and started pacing.

“Isabel leaves her alone” Michael said.

“Sorry, I just want answers. I just want to know why she is here after all this time, and we never knew about her” Isabel said.

“Listen we will deal with tomorrow.” Max replied as he started to head out the door.

”Ok” Isabel said following Max out the door.
 
“Isabel, I know this isn’t the time to ask this but I was wondering if....” Before max could even say anything Isabel replied, “Yes you and Liz can stay at my place, Jessie is going to be out of town for a couple of days”

“Thanks Izz” Max replied.

“Your welcome, you two can stay in the guest bedroom”

“We would stay at our place another night, but haven’t got everything for the house yet” Max replied

“You know mom is going crazy about this. She wants to buy everything for your house” laughed Isabel

“I know, I hate going shopping with her” Max said laughing.
 
Max pulled open the door and came into the house.He found Liz half asleep on the couch. He went over to her smiled.

“I know you are not asleep yet” he whispered.

“You know me well” Liz replied.

“Izz said we could stay at her place tonight” Liz slowly got up off the couch.

“Good, we can actually sleep in a bed and I can take a hot shower” Liz replied.
 
Tess sat on the park bench looking up into the sky. She wondered where her son was, and if he was ok. She had to find out, she needed some answers, and it has to be fast. 
 
 She closed her eyes and decided it was time to play with Max's head again. Liz was asleep in the car. He concentrated on the road as they headed towards Isabel's house. He looked over to check on Liz, and realized he was looking right  into the eyes of Tess Harding.

“I'm going crazy” Max replied.

“You are not going crazy” Tess replied.

“I'm not seeing you right now”

“I need to know Max, I need to know where our son is” asked Tess

“Someplace safe and no way in the same world as you crazy bitch.” Max replied.

“That doesn’t help me.”  Max knew he was seeing things.

“Go away!” Max yelled.
 
 Liz woke up suddenly and looked over at Max.

“What are you yelling about?” Liz replied. Max looked at Liz expecting to see Tess but instead he saw Liz.

“Ohh, Nothing it was a bug” Max lied. It was something but it wasn’t a bug. He was going nuts. He knew that he was thinking about and seeing way too much of Tess. It was starting to bother him, he was sensing her, seeing her and it was driving him insane. Liz saw that look in his face.

“What ever was bothering you earlier is bothering you again isn’t it?” Liz asked.

“No, its nothing Liz I'm just tired” Max said.

“I hope you are not too tired for me?” Liz said getting closer to him.

“I'm never too tired for you” Max replied as he quickly kissed her on the forehead. They pulled up into Isabel's driveway. Max couldn’t keep these feelings and things about Tess to himself. It was driving him Insane.
 
 But he couldn’t tell Liz either. He wasn’t sure where it was coming from.  He needed answers. 'Maybe Jessica can help' Max thought as he got of the car with Liz and headed towards Isabel's front door.

Thanks to Lisslou (mmcherron) For helping me with this fic!


*~Four~*



Max laid in the soft warm bed. Liz curled up next to him. She knew he was tired she could see it in his eyes. Before she knew it he was fast asleep. Liz shut the light off and whispered goodnight in his ear.



Max was in a deep dream state. He found himself in the white room. He started to panic; he looked over and saw Tess. Liz was tied to the wall. Max saw the marks and bruises on Liz's face.
“Liz!” Max screamed in his sleep. Tess turned to him and smiled.


“Well, well if it isn’t Max” Tess said Glancing at Liz.


“Leave Liz alone” Max snapped ready to do whatever was necessary.


“You see I can’t do that!” Tess snared out maliciously. She then raised her right hand and slowly started to use her powers on Liz. Tess knew exactly what to do to see Max squirm. Liz was screaming out in pain as Tess was slowly burning a hole in her chest.



No…..L…i….z. Max screamed. Jumping up out of bed like a bat out of hell. He couldn’t breath, he started gasping for breath. He looked around for Liz in horror.


“Liz!” He yelled. Liz woke up and noticed Max was freaking out. She quickly turned on the light.


“Max are you ok” He started shaking uncontrollably. He quickly got out of bed and went to the bathroom. He needed to splash some cold water on his face. He couldn’t get that image out of his mine. His Liz…and loving wife hanging there screaming. It was too much to bear his heart was breaking.



Liz was getting worried. He never wakes up scared like that. He would always talk to her. This time was different. He is getting more distant. She feels like everything is falling apart.



Max looked at himself in the mirror. In the mirror he saw Tess. He turned around and she wasn’t there. 'I'm going crazy' he thought as he tried to breath and calm himself. Liz knocked on the bathroom door.




“Max?” Liz said through the door. It was a dream; Liz was still there she was Alive. But the dream felt so real. Maybe it’s another trick.


“Liz” Max said as he opened the door. He took her In his arms tightly. Pulling her shirt up just to check to make sure there are no marks on her beautiful chest.


“What happened?” She asked with tears in her eyes.


“It was a bad dream” He said. “A horrible dream, one I never want to think about.”



“Liz, please hold me” Max cried



After that dream, Max didn’t sleep all night. All he could see was Tess and feel the anger that she felt. Liz knew something was wrong. She felt helpless not knowing what to do.



She was laying in the bed with him trying to keep him calm. “Do you want to talk about it?” Liz asked rubbing his back.


“No” Max said as he laid there.


“Are you sure, because what ever it is it’s obviously bothering you.



“You are shaking still Max”


“I don’t want to talk about it Liz. I just want you to stay with me” He cried.


“I will always be here Max. I'm not going anywhere” She stayed up with him all night, she was worried. She had never seen him like this before in her life. Liz made a mental note to talk to Isabel in the morning.



***********************



The next morning -



Max got up out of bed and rubbed his eyes. He turned to find Liz gone. The door opened to their room. He started to panic. Where did Liz go? Did someone take her while he was sleeping? He heard a noise at the doorway. As he looked up his heart finally started to slow down……Liz….



She came in with her hair wet, and a towel wrapped around her. 'She just took a shower no need to freak out Max' He thought to himself as Liz came over towards him.


“Are you ok Max?” Liz asked, as she was holding the towel around her naked body.


“Yeah, god your so beautiful” he said running his fingers through her wet hair. He started kissing her passionately. She loved the way he kissed it always made her forget what she was thinking. No, Wait Max…


“We need to talk about this” Liz said with hesitation.


“Talk about what?” Max questioned.


” Why are you pulling away from me and what about the nightmare last night” Liz said despair.


“I told you I don’t want to talk about it” Max yelled


“It would help if you did” Liz yelled back


“No, what would help is this” Max said kissing her again.


“Hey, you are not going to get away from this that easy” Laughed Liz between kisses.


“I know you can’t resist me Liz Parker Evans” Max said lovingly.



Liz smiled. That was the truth of it. She could never resist his smile, his sexy looks and the way he kissed.


“I could If I wanted to” Liz said with a pout



“No you couldn’t” Max said kissing her face and neck.


“Ok maybe not” Liz said as she was getting caught up in the moment. He loves her so much; he wanted her more then anything right this moment.



Max stopped kissing her. He looked deeply into her eyes. His breathing was slow and soothing to Liz.


“Max?” She said softly.


“You mean the world to me Liz. If anything ever happens I don’t know what I would do” He said gently holding her face in his hands.


“Max nothing is going to happen to me.” Liz said softly as she wrapped her arms around him. She kissed him again passionately.



Tess held the phone in her hand debating whether she should dial his number once more. She wanted to hear his sweet sexy voice again. That, sexy man was supposed to be mine she thought evilly to herself.



She quickly dialed his number on the payphone. Max and Liz were heavily in the moment of each other. He heard his cell phone ringing. Liz stopped what she was doing and looked at Max.


“Not again, don’t answer it” Liz said annoyed by the phone. She took off her towel and threw it at him. She wanted Max's attention at her not the phone.



“Shit, what are you doing Liz?”



“Getting what I want” She said while crawling like a lioness after her pray.


“Liz, it’s not going to stop ringing” He said grabbing the phone.


“It will if you ignore it!” Liz said pouncing on him.



The phone fell to the floor sliding across the room while Liz got what she wanted.



************





Tess was getting irritated fast. Why the hell is he not picking up the phone? She heard the voice mail picked up. Tess slammed the phone down in a huff. “Bitch…” She screamed



'Liz has probably got him preoccupied' she said as she left the pay phone. I can’t stand her. I think I need to take care of the little mousey Parker girl and soon.





***************





Jessica entered the Crashdown and bumped right into Maria, who had a cup of coffee in her hand. The cup falls to the ground and spills all over the floor.


“Dropping things are we Maria?” Jessica said sarcastically while smiling.


“I am beginning to really hate you” Maria snapped back.


“You only hate me because of Michael. I told you there is no way in a million years I would sleep with my brother! That’s just gross, wrong in so many different ways”


“Whatever” Maria said while rolling her eyes. As she started to clean up her mess, Jessica came up to her and leaned down. She looked around to make sure no was watching. Jessica waved her hand slightly over the puddle. Maria looked in shock as it disappeared.


“What the…y..y you are an...” Maria stopped herself.


“Yeah and you can say it I’m an alien. Just like your Space boy of a boyfriend” Jessica said as she got up.


“So it’s true then”


“Yeah it’s been true I am an alien”


”No, I mean the part that your Michael's sister”


“Oh yeah, that’s true too, I am Mikey G's sister. You finally believe me wow, that’s a miracle” Jessica said sarcastically with her arms waving around.


“Now see that’s why I hate you” Maria said as she was leaving the Crashdown.


“Wait! I want to see Michael happy and if you are what makes him happy then you should be with him” Jessica said hoping to get through to Maria.


“Michael isn’t reliable anymore, I can’t be with someone that isn’t reliable and there when you need him” Maria said as she walked away.


“Well I tried and it was worth the effort” Jessica said as she watched Maria walk away.





****************





Liz was asleep on her side next to Max. He could spend forever watching Liz sleep by his side. She was so beautiful. Max got up and threw some clothes on. He needed to get a nice hot shower and relax his mind. He went into the bathroom and looked at his reflection in the mirror. In the mirror he saw Tess standing behind him.



“Where is our son” Tess demanded. Max turned in horror and saw Tess standing there.


“Why are you doing this to me? You are dead!” Max said wondering if he was still asleep or dreaming.


“Do you know what I can do?” She looked him straight in the eyes.


“I don’t care! Just leave me alone!” Max yelled.


“I can’t do that. I know you are still attracted to me” Tess put her arms around his neck and looked into his eyes.


“No I'm not! I'm married to Liz” Max said pushing her away.


“When you kiss her who do you see?”


“I see Liz”


“No you don’t, you see me and will always see me” Tess whispered as she kissed him on the cheek.



Max rubbed his eyes and Tess disappeared. He quickly went back to the room and found Liz still sleeping in the bed. He smiled at her and slowly closed the door.


“I need answers” Max said softly.





*************




Max walked into Michael's apartment, he didn’t even knock or anything he just barged right in. Michael knew something was up.


“There must be something going on, you didn’t even knock” Jessica said while she sipped on a bottle of Snapple.


“We need to talk” Max said.


“What could you, the loyal King of our planet want to talk about?” Jessica said. Michael was also wondering the same thing.


“What’s going on Maxwell?” Michael asked.


“I don’t know..I need answers as to why this happening” Max said.


“What’s happening?” Jessica curiously asked.


“Why am I seeing Tess. She's dead but it’s like she's right in front of me. It’s driving me crazy!” Max shouted.


“Maxwell maybe you should talk to Liz about this, this seem like a relationship thing” Michael said patting him on the back.


“This is serious Michael” Jessica said looking into Max's eyes.


“I can’t tell Liz about this. If I do everything we have will crumble. You know how she is with the Tess situation” Max pleaded.


“Yeah I know” Michael said with remorse “I remember.”


“It feels so real” Max said.


“She's using her powers” Jessica said under her breath. Max looked at her curiously.


“What did you say?” Max asked.


“Umm nothing, I gotta go there is something I have to do” Jessica said as she headed out the door.


“She's a mystery” Max said.


“Yeah she is, so what are you going to do about this. You know this seeing Tess thing?” Michael asked.


“I don’t know, but if you see Liz don’t tell her anything about this”


“Your secret is safe with me” Michael said with a smirk while patting Max on his back.





****************************




Liz woke up and found Max gone. The door of the room opened and Max walked in. Liz looked up and smiled.


“Where did you go?” She said as she stretched out on the bed. The cover dropped down revealing her naked chest.



“Jeez, Liz what are you trying to do to me.” Max said with a smile throwing her one of his shirts. “Don’t make me attack you so early”



“Oh you are no fun, party pooper. Liz laughed while putting on the shirt. “Did you bring me something?”


“Sure did sweet’s I went to get some coffee” Max said holding up the Styrofoam cup of coffee.


“Well I missed you” Liz said with a pout.

.
“I wasn’t gone that Long” Max said as he sat the cup of coffee on the table.


“It seemed like an eternity” Liz said as she sat up in the bed. She could tell there was something he wanted to say to her, but he couldn’t find the words.


“Spill it. You know cant hide anything from me” Liz said as Max sat on the bed next to her.


“Liz we have been through so much. We are married now and I love you more then anything in the world”


“Max your scaring me. You are not seeing someone else are you?” Liz said with panic in her voice.


“No! Baby please it could never be that. It’s just that I have been thinking about.” Max stopped himself for a moment. Trying to think of a to get the right words out..


“You've been thinking about Tess haven’t you” Liz said with tears in her eyes looking disappointed.


“Yes” Max said softly knowing this was probably hurting her right now. Liz brushed his hair away from his eyes.


“Don’t think about her. Think about me and our life we have now. She's dead I saw her remember I drove her there.” Liz whispered as she hugged Max. “She can’t hurt us anymore.”


“She won’t come between us” Max whispered in her ear as he kissed her shoulder.


“I'll make sure you won’t think about her” Liz said smiling kissing him.


“I've already forgotten her” Max said softly.


“Good!” Liz said as she smacked him with a pillow.


“Hey!” Max said as Liz kept beating him.


“Maybe I can knock some sense into you Max Evans! God! I can’t believe you!” Liz yelled as she got up out of bed and started to get dressed.


“Liz” Max said pleading. She started to head to the door but Max locked it and kept her in.


“Liz, I see we need to talk about this some more” Max said.


“We talked about it and its over! When you pulled away, while I was kissing you were you thinking about her?” Liz said hurt.


“No.. Yes I don’t know” Max said confused.


“That’s great I thought this whole Tess thing was done and over with!” Liz said setting back on the bed. “I can’t do it again Max. I won’t let her do this to us. My heart can’t take it.”


“It is Liz, I don’t know where this is coming from.” Max said with fear in his voice.


“You better find out quick. I don’t want to loose my husband” Liz said as she laid her head on his shoulder. She looked up at him in his eyes and slowly walked out the door in tears.





***************************




Jessica needed some time to herself. She needed to think. If Tess was alive that meant Max and Liz were in danger. She sensed danger the moment Max mentioned her evil name. And she also sensed something else. Hummm, I think I know what it is but I have to see Liz.



Maybe if she talked to Liz, she might be able to help her. She wanted Max and Liz to go to the next step. She also knew that next step would be soon, she could smell Liz all over Max. Liz had a weird sense about her.



There was a knock on the door of Isabel's house. Max went to answer it. He was surprised to see Jessica again.


“Jessica what are you doing here?” Max asked.


“Can I talk to Liz?”


“Sure” He let Jessica in and Liz came out into the living room.


“Liz, this is Jessica” Jessica smiled at her. An overwhelming sense of fear and panic came over Jessica. Then suddenly she was hit with a flash. She felt like someone was pulling her in a dream state. What ever it was it was strong.



She heard two beating heart, and then she felt an over powering rush of emotions. She could see this little baby nestled in Liz’s womb. Jessica stood there looking at Liz in shock.



Max and Liz looked her weird.


“What’s wrong?” Max started to panic.


“Holy Shit Liz !!” Jessica said as she grabbed hold of Liz’s arm. “That was some strong power you have.”


“What are you talking about?” Liz said looking at Jessica confused.


“Oh god you, don’t know do you?” Jessica asked her. “You need to be ready Liz.”


“What are you talking about know what exactly? What do I need to be ready for?” Liz asked with a serious face trying to figure out why she was talking in riddles.


“Never mind, I'm here to talk about the Tess situation” Jessica changed the subject fast hoping that she could get away with it.


“You know about Tess” Liz asked getting more confused.


“Yes, I am after all Space boys’ alien sister” Jessica said laughing.


“Ohh Ok ”Liz said.


“Seriously what do you know” Max asked quickly.


“Well, I can’t tell you for sure. But there is a way I can make the thoughts go away”


“How?” Max asked.


“I'll tell you in a minute, but first I need to talk to your wife alone for a few minutes. There is something I want to discuss with her” Jessica said grabbing Liz’s hand for support.


“Ok” Max said going outside to get some air.


“Stop panicking, it only makes things worse. And the reason why I asked you those questions earlier is because you are going to have a baby. Do you know that you have strong powers both you and the baby? How exactly did that happen?” Jessica asked. Are you not human?



“A baby” Liz whispers while touching her stomach.


“What? How do you know? Liz asked looking shocked


“Believe me I wouldn’t lie about that. I can also tell that Max loves you deeply. I feel it; your love is so deep. I think Tess would have a hard time being able to break the bond you two have.” So that’s why, I’m here is see why Max thinks that he sees her.



“I have one more question for you? How come I can feel you with hidden powers? I know that you are human? Jessica asked with confused look.



“Well that is a long story. The short story is that Max healed me. I only just began getting powers. It really only happens when I get upset. I can’t control them that well yet.”



“Ok, Liz we can sit down later and you can tell me the longer story.” Jessica laughed.



“Am I really pregnant?” Liz asked.



Jessica rolled her eyes. “Yes, if you don’t believe me take a pregnancy test and find out! Especially the way you two have been all over each other, it’s no wonder you are pregnant!” Jessica said with a laugh.



“Jessica shut up. I can’t believe you just said that.”



“Let’s get daddy and bring him in here, and see if I can get Tess out of his mind.” Jessica said standing up to get him.




Max came back into the house. Jessica made him sit down on the couch.


“What are you going to do?” Max asked.


“It’s simple really, I'm going to connect with you and push the thoughts of you know who out of your mind” Jessica said as she took a deep breath and took Max's hands.



She closed her eyes and felt the warm energy that was flowing from Max. Suddenly, she was hit with images. She saw Max kissing Tess, the way Max was looking at her was different then the way he looked at Tess, Jessica could feel it.



Suddenly, she felt a different pull in a different direction. She saw Tess here in Roswell alive. 'She has a plan' Jessica thought. The connection ended and Max felt dizzy.


“There that should work, no more...you know who” Jessica said smiling.


“Thanks” Max said rubbing his eyes.


“"You are welcome I would do anything for the king Zan the almighty." Jessica rolled her eyes laughing





*************************





Tess stood in front of Isabel's house. She had found out that Max and Liz were staying at Isabel's when she followed her home. She watched Liz and Max from across the street. Just the thought of Max kissing Liz made her blood boil. 'Calm down Tess' she said to herself. She just needed to get Max away from the house so her plan would work.



Isabel came into the house and saw that Jessica was sitting in her living room with Max.


“I guess that’s my cue to leave” Jessica said as she got up to leave.


“You don’t have to leave” Isabel said.


“She was just helping me out with something” Max said as he went to the kitchen.


“Ok, do I want to know” Isabel said laying her stuff on the couch.


“Well Max, I'm going down to the Crashdown” Liz said as she grabbed her jacket.


“What for?” Max asked.


“Well I was going to go and see if Maria was there” Liz kissed max on the forehead.


“Ok” Max said as he kissed her back.


“I'll be back” Liz replied and left the house. But, she needs to make one quick stop before she goes to the Crashdown. She pulled up to the drug store and bought a home pregnancy test. Liz was very nervous about this. She wanted to know right away if she was pregnant, and if Jessica was right about what she sensed.



Liz touched her stomach; she wasn’t so sure about this. There were no signs of her being pregnant. She pulled up in front of the Crashdown. Liz sat in the car for a few moments. Her life was changing so fast.



She smiled at the thought of Max being a father. She could see him as a great father. She could see the faces of her parents if they found out she was having a baby. Liz giggled in delight as she jumped out of the car and entered the Crashdown.



Maria noticed the gleam coming from Liz. Maria smiled at her best friend.


“What’s going on?” Maria asked.


“Maria, this is so exciting!” Liz said jumping for joy.


“What is Liz?”


“Maria, I think I might be pregnant!” Liz said hopping around little a crazy woman.


“Really! Oh my god Liz!” Maria yelled Jumping up and down with her.



“Shhhh, Maria no one knows yet. Not even Max. If my dad found out he would definitely kill Max or that least Maim him” Liz whispered quietly.


“I have to take the test and see. Jessica you know Michael's sister sensed I was pregnant” Maria gave Liz that look. The look that said she hated that name.


“She sensed it? How can you sense something like that?” Maria said.


“Maria, don’t ruin my moment here! I'm going into the bathroom and take the test. Wish me luck” Liz said as she went to the bathroom.



Maria was busing tables when she looked up and saw Michael coming through the door.


“Can we talk” He said.


“Nope, I have nothing to say to you Michael Guerin” he followed Maria into the back.


“Look Maria, I know I haven’t been there for you lately.” Maria was trying to ignore him. But, it wasn’t working. She stopped what she was doing; she looked up into his eyes and realized she missed him. She was doing it again, falling for him. She looked down ' No not this time Michael Guerin. Be strong Maria' she told herself.


“Michael, I want to make it work for us, but right now it can’t” Maria said as she went back out into the Crashdown. Liz came out of the bathroom with a smile from ear to ear.


“Maria, she's right! I'm going to have a baby!” Liz said as she jumped up and down with joy. 'God what am I going to tell max' Liz thought as she giggled with excitement.



‘What the fuck…..Did I just hear Liz right?’ Michael muttered to himself while standing in the backroom looking through the little window.





*********************





Max felt like someone was watching him. He looked out the window and couldn’t see anyone. Isabel came up behind him wondering what he was looking at.


“What are you doing Brother?” She asked.


“Just looking” Max said as he walked away from the window.


“Is there something going on between you and Liz I should be worried about?” Isabel asked.


“No, not really” Max said as he sat at the kitchen table drinking a can of coke a cola.


“Oh ok, well I am going for a run” Isabel said as she went to her room to change.





*******************************





Tess knew Liz was gone and this was the perfect opportunity to go with her plan. She figured that Liz would be at the Crashdown.



Liz came out of the Crashdown with a smile on her face. It was making Tess sick to see her so happy. 'Ok lets do this' Tess thought as she sat in the car she stole.



She closed her eyes. She figured if she mind warped everyone around they wouldn’t see her kidnap Liz. Tess saw Liz walking just away come the Crashdown where she always park. Liz would never recognize her because she made herself look like an old lady.


Liz walked past Tess. She used her powers to throw Liz on the ground. She hit the ground hard. Liz felt a wave dizziness take over her as she passes out.



Tess grabbed her by the arm shaking her. “Liz, you bitch wake up. I will show you want happens to someone who tries to take away my man and family.”



Tess waves her hand in front of her changing her appearance back to normal. Liz looked up at Tess through her blurred vision. Liz laid there looking at her in shock and horror.


“Oh my god!” Liz screamed. She was about to use her powers to blast Tess across the street, but she stopped her.


“I learned from the last time bitch” Tess grabbing her arms and pulling her off the ground.


“You are supposed to be dead!” Liz screamed in horror.


“Screaming won’t help because they don’t see us” Tess said as she threw Liz in the car. Liz tried to move but Tess was using some kind of weird alien looking restraint.



“You either cooperate or I will knock your lights out!” Tess said smiling at her wickedly.


“Max will find me and kill you!” Liz screamed as she tried to kick the door open.


“No he won’t, he'll never know” Tess said as she laughed and waved her hand over self and changed into Liz's appearance.


“No!” Liz screamed as she started to cry.


“Shutup!” Tess yelled. “You are giving me a headache.”


“Let me go!” Liz yelled.


“Sorry I can’t do that!”


“This is a dream! You are not here! You are dead. I know I saw you!” Liz screamed.


“That’s funny because I am very much alive!” Tess yelled as they drove. Liz knew she was in danger. She had to do something. But Tess was smart this time. She was one step ahead of them.


“You are not going to fool Max with that look. He will see right through you” Liz said with fear.


“No he won’t” Tess laughed.


“Yes he will” Liz said as she kicked the seat of the car.


“There is no use fighting me. I get what I want! You are just the thing that’s in the way!”


Liz realized they were going to Las Crues. If Tess wasn’t using her powers against Liz would be out of the car faster then she could say her name.


They pulled up in front of an old abandoned building. Liz was trying to make an escape plan in her head. Tess pulled Liz out of the car. Liz had no idea Tess had so much strength.


“What are you going to do to me?” Liz asked.


“That’s a stupid question to ask now isn’t it? I'm going to make you suffer.” Tess said grabbing her by the arm and pulling her in the abandoned building.


“You are not going to leave me here!” Liz yelled. Tess laughed, pushing her into one of the back rooms.


“You bet I am” Tess said as she slams the door. She used her powers to seal the door. There was no way any one could get out of the room. Liz kicked the metal door. She started crying, what was she going to do. Oh no, I never got to tell Max that I was pregnant. I have to get out of here. I need to protect my baby.



Her life was perfect now it’s crashing to a screaming holt. Liz slid down the wall to the floor and started crying. Tess had to come back for her. If she didn’t she would starve in her with no food or water.



I have to hide my baby from Tess because I know she would go crazy if she knew. I will play nice and when she isn’t looking I will give it to her Liz thought to herself.


“Max, please see through her” Liz said softly as she laid down onto the cold floor.

[DestinyDreamer]

*~Five~*



Tess drove back to the Crashdown and switched cars. She had to drive Liz's car back to Isabel's so no one would think anything was out of ordinary. Max felt something was wrong deep in the pit of his stomach.


“Liz where are you?” He said pacing back and fourth. He seen the head lights shine threw the window. Tess pulled up in to Isabel's drive way. She sat in the car for a moment. She imagine Max touching her again. She smiled as she got out of the car and headed toward the front door. Max ran to the front door.


“What? Were you afraid I wasn’t going to come home?” Tess said as she entered the house.


“I was worried, you were gone a while” Max said noticing something different about the way Liz was holding herself.


“Sorry, I was busy with Maria” Tess said as she smiled and wrapped her arms around Max's neck. Max leaned in and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek.


“You seem different” Max said while looking at her.


“No different then usual” Tess said smiling. She was finally getting what she wanted.


“How about we go up stairs and spend some quality time together” Max said smiling. Tess liked that idea.


“Sounds like a plan” She said as Max kissed her passionately. As Max was kissing her, he started getting weird flashes. But they weren’t the usual flashes he always gets from Liz. He saw Liz crying. It was like she was calling out to him. In the back of his mind he feels that something was just not right.



Maybe I’m just thinking about it to much. He pulled her into a deeper kiss what he saw next sacred the shit out of him. He saw a flash of Liz being blasted by someone, but he couldn’t see their face. “What the hell” Max shouted pushing Tess away.



“What?” Tess said worried. Max let go of her and sat down on the couch.


“Why are you suddenly pulling away from me?” Tess said furious.


“Something is wrong” Max said as he lays back down on the couch.


“You wanted this, and now you are pulling away and games? You are so unbelievable!” Tess said stomping her foot in anger.


“Why are you talking like this?” Max asked


“Like what?” Tess asked innocently looking down at Max.


“I don’t know” Max said frustrated tone.


“I think maybe you just need to relax.” Tess said as she sat down next to him on the couch. She started caressing his back.


“Something is bothering me Liz” Max said holding his head in his hands.


“I can obviously see that. But what ever it is let it go. I want so want to spend some quality time with the man I love.” Tess said kissing his neck. It just didn’t feel right to Max. There was something different about Liz at the moment. He couldn’t put his finger on it. Max sat there looking into Tess eyes there is just something that is different about them. I wonder what happen while she was with Maria. He got up off the couch and headed towards the door.


“Where are you going?” Tess said watching him closely.


“I need some air” Max said as he started to open the door. Tess used her powers to close the door. Max stood there with his mouth gapping open shocked.



“When did you start using your powers again?” Max asked.


“Just now, sit!” Tess yelled pointing to the couch.


“Liz I have no idea what is wrong with you? You have never talked to me like this before and it’s not starting now. Did something happen at the Crashdown that I should be worried about was it Maria, or your dad?” Max shouted back at her in fear as he opened the door.




“Fine, Max leave then! God!” Tess screamed pacing around the living room.



Max ran out of the house as fast as he could. ‘I can’t believe Liz is acting this crazy. I have to talk to someone about this.’ Max said to himself.



Liz wasn’t acting herself, huh like he would know. It’s always about his prefect Liz. Liz always has his attention no matter what I did it wasn’t good enough. Now I have to look like his precious Liz in order for him to kiss me.



Tess hated looking like Liz. All Max was seeing is Liz and not her. It was starting to piss her off. I’m starting to hate Liz even more having to pretend to be her. I’m going to have to get rid of her once and for all. But I need Max to give me sometime to brainwash him my way.


“Dam it!” Tess said as she ran after Max. Why does he have to be so hard she said to herself?


“Max wait!” She caught with him at the end of the drive way.


“Liz” Max said turning to face her.


“I know I am acting weird right now. I'm sorry it’s just that I have a lot on my mind” Tess said blinking her eyes innocently, knowing that Max is a sucker for this kind of shit.



Shit Max is suck an ass I can’t believe that he was king. How could I have mindwarped him into thinking that I was Liz just so I could get pregnant from him? To think that it almost work breaking them apart. How would of known that Liz miss prissy would take his sorry cheating ass back. Human are such weak minded people. Tess said in a whisper only if he knew the real true. Tess laughs to herself.





***************************





Liz laid on the cold floor crying. She decided she wasn’t going to cry anymore. She needed somehow to get a hold of Max and figure out how to escape from this place. She tried kicking in the door, but that didn’t work. Tess did something to the door so she couldn’t break out.



Liz sat up, maybe if I try and contact him like I did when he was in New York. Then he would know where I am. She closed her eyes, and tried to connect with Max through there connection. Maybe Max would somehow get the picture that she was in danger. It was something she had never done before by herself. But she had to do something. She had her baby to think about now. She closed her eyes and concentrated hard. “Please Max let me in” she whispered.





*****************************





“Now, Max can we please go back inside” Tess said Pulling him out of the car.


“You know, you really think that you have me wrapped around your finger.” Max laughed while shaking his head.


“Do I really” Tess said sweetly, thinking in the back of her mind 'wait until he finds out who I really am'.



“You know you do so stop playing with me. I hate it when we fight.” Max said pulling her into a deep kiss. As the kiss started to get out of control he started to get flashes again. He saw Liz falling on the ground knocked out. Max reaches up to Tess and shoves her away quickly.



“You are doing it again!” Tess yelled in frustration.


“Sorry! I keep having these weird flashes!” Max said stepping back.


“There normal aren’t they?” Tess questioned with fear in her eyes.


“These ones aren’t” Max said looking her in the eyes.



Tess turned her back towards Max. “That bitch she is connecting with him. Well, that’s going to stop” Tess said as she closed her eyes and started to mind warp Max. 'Perfect' Tess said as she turned back to Max.


“Now, what about these flashes?” She asked. Max came closer to her and ran his fingers through her hair.


“They are normal flashes. God, Liz I want you so bad right now” he said softly as he kissed her. Tess wrapped her arms around him as he carried her to the room.





****************************




Liz knew Tess had Max right where she wanted him. She could sense they were getting closer. 'Of course he thinks she is me' Liz thought. I have to get through to him. Max has to realize that the person that is there isn’t me.



Liz tried to remember what she did the last time her and Isabel did it. “Ok I have to focus on Max that is what I did last time” Liz said



“Ahhh…I can’t get in Liz screamed. “Please Max what ever is happening you have to see through this. Tess is evil. She is trying to fool you and you are falling into her trap.”



I have to try something else Liz told herself. I feel like I’m going crazy here talking to myself. Maybe I could try Isabel or Maria. I just hope I get through to someone and fast.



Liz put her hand down to her stomach and held it there while closing her eyes trying to get someone to see or even hear her.





*****************************





Tess and Max were getting very hot and heavy. Every touch was a touch she missed deeply. But it didn’t feel right. He was thinking of her every few minutes. Then she gets flashes of them together it enough to make her sick. Tess stopped kissing him and she pulled away. Max looked at her confused.


“Now who is pulling away” Max said in a sexy voice as Tess got up.


“Sorry, I'm just tired” Tess said as she curled up in the sheets with him. It just wasn’t the same with him pining away for the little bitch. . He was too madly in love with Liz. Tess would have to work her plan out some more. She needs to think of a way to make Max forget Liz and think of only her and their family.





************************




Michael wanted Maria back so bad. But he knew it would never work out with them. Jessica sensed that he was lonely and missing Maria.


“You are like a puppy dog Michael.” Jessica said making a puppy dog face at him.


“Shutup” Michael said.


“Ever thought maybe making her jealous? That will make her come crawling back” Jessica said as she raised her eye brows and smiled with delight.


“I don’t know it may piss her off even more” Michael replied smiling.


“You are smiling so that tells me you just might think about doing it” Jessica replied.


“Nope, not saying that. I’m pleading the 5th.” Michael replied as he sipped on his Snapple



“You know dear brother if you want her back you have fight fire with fire. You really have to show her what its going to be like with out you. I’m a girl I know what would drive boyfriends nuts. Jessica said smiling.



“I so didn’t want to know that you have had boyfriends. Just the thought of that makes me mad and grossed out that the same time. Please tell me that you are sparing me the details. Michael said with his hands plugging his ears.





************************




Max got out of bed slowly trying not to wake up Tess. He left the room and went out into the living room. He found Isabel at the kitchen table.


“Can we talk?” Max asked.


“Sure, what’s up” Isabel asked seeing the concerned look on his face.


“I don’t know, ever since Liz came back from the Crashdown earlier she has been acting strange. And when I kissed I got these weird flashes” Max said scratching his head.


“What kind of flashes?” Isabel asked curiously.


“Not the normal ones that’s for sure. She doesn’t seem like the same person. She used her powers today. Liz hasn’t used her powers in a long time. Actually since Tess was here that was the last time.” Max said with concern.


“Maybe that has something to do with it?” Isabel asked.


“I don’t know” Max said rubbing his eyes.


”Do you want me to dream walk her?” Isabel asked.


“If you could please” Max said.


“I would be happy to” Isabel said as Max went to get a picture of Liz. Max handed her a picture of the Liz. Isabel laid on the couch and held the picture tightly. Suddenly she was pulled back. Isabel looked around and realized she was in an abandoned building.


“This isn’t an average Liz parker dream” Isabel said out loud. She looked over and saw Liz laying on the cold floor crying. 'What’s going on?' Isabel thought. Out of the corner of her eye she saw Tess coming through the door. Liz slowly got up and looked into her eyes. Tess leaned towards her. 'What is she doing?' Isabel thought as she watched. Then Tess used her powers to burn Liz's stomach. She screamed and Isabel was pulled back.


“Oh god' Isabel screamed as she jumps up off the couch crying.


“What did you see?” Max asked pulling Iz into a hug.


“She's dreaming about Tess. It was so horrible I saw Liz in this abandoned building. It’s weird though” Isabel said crying. “I could feel fear it felt so real.”
“Why? What kind of fear? Do you think it’s really Liz’s? Max panicked


“I dont know” isabel said. “But we need to figure this entire thing out because it really doesn’t make any sense.





***************************





Tess rolled over and realized Max wasn’t there. She heard voices out in the living room. Tess went out into the living room and found Max talking to Isabel quietly.


“What’s going on?” She asked looking at both of them suspiciously.


“Nothing” Max said quickly jumping off the couch.


“Ok, It doesn’t look like nothing” Tess said.


“We were just talking that’s all”


“Ohh ok, well I'm going to get dressed. There is something I need to do” Tess said as she went back into the room and changed.


“What could she possibly have to do this late?” Isabel asked concerned. Tess came back out into the living room dressed in clothes that they never seen her wear before. It showed way too much of everything.


“I'll be back” She said as she kissed Max quickly and left.


“You are right Max she is acting weird” Isabel said. “Did you see that outfit she was wearing it was way to slutty to be Liz’s. Does she even have clothes like that?



“No, Liz never shows that much cleavage and you could almost see her ass coming out the bottom of her skirt. In all the time that we have been together she has never acted this way. I need help Isabel before I lose the woman that we all know and love.” Cried Max in frustration.





************************





Tess drove back to the abandoned building where she left Liz. She used her powers to unlock the door. Liz laid on the cold floor crying.


“Little Liz Parker crying?” Tess said smiling.


“Leave me alone” Liz said looking into her eyes.


“You know I think it would kill Max if anything would happen to you” Tess said laughing as she paced back and fourth in front of Liz.


“You can’t leave me here. Not without water and food” Liz said putting her arms across her stomach knowing that she might slowly die of starvation or something.


“Don’t worry” Tess said throwing a pack of crackers at her she had bought at a super mart store on the way over.


“I hate you! How do I know you didn’t poison them or something” Liz yelled as she threw the crackers back at her.



Tess laughed. “Dear Little Liz..What makes you think I really give a damn? You are a weak human. Remember this and remember it well I will always will have had Max before you. He loved me first always. I was his wife you slut you will always be the bitch that stepped in between us.



I have his first born and you have nothing but my sloppy seconds. Every time you and Max are going at it, it is really me that he is thinking about. Do you actually think that you could break that? So, I’m tell you this one more time stay the hell out of his mind. Tess screamed with venom.



“I didn’t do shit you demented psycho gerbil” Liz shouted back. “Go ahead Tess keep tell yourself that and maybe it just might make you believe it. Do you really think Max wants anything to do with you? I know you did something to him that night that you took Max’s virginity but I just can’t prove it. He would never willingly to see a psycho fuck naked. You are cheap and he could have easily gone to a strip club if he wanted it that badly. I know him Tess and that was your biggest mistake. You remember that.”



“Shut up Bitch you don’t know what the hell you are talking about. I know you were trying to connect with him.” Tess said glaring at her.


“I will get threw to him. He loves me, He could never love someone as evil as you!” Liz screamed at her in disgust.



“You are going to pay for getting in the way bitch.” Tess reached over and grabbed Liz's arm tightly. Before Liz could do anything so saw Tess’s hand glowed a deep red. She felt the burning sensation in her arm. Liz screamed in pain.



Liz raises her hand up and blasted Tess off of her. Liz fell to the floor in tears as she grabbed her arm. “Way are you doing this to me you sick bitch? I never did anything to you.” Liz cried in pain.


“If you don’t keep your pretty little mouth shut I will do something worse” Tess said as she left the room and locked the door with her powers. Liz laid there crying in pain. She looked down at her arm, and winced in pain as she noticed the burn marks on her arm. Liz started to feel like just maybe she and her baby might be in danger.





**********************





Maria knocked on the door of Isabel's place. Max answered the door.


“Hey is Liz here?” Maria asked.


“No she left and I have no idea where she went” Max said.


“I was wondering if she told you the good news” Maria asked with excitement.


“Good news?” Max asked looking confused.


“She hasn’t told you?” Maria said looking at Max surprised.


“No, she was acting pretty weird when she came from the Crashdown earlier. Then she left and said she had something to do”


“Oh” Maria as she tried to not to spill to Max what she knew.


“Spill it Maria, what’s the good news. I know you want to tell me Maria” Max said watching her hopping around.


“Liz is pregnant” Maria said jumping around like a bunny.


“What? Why didn’t she tell me?” Max shouted.


“I don’t know” Maria shouted back.



Max noticed the head lights in the driveway. Tess looked over and saw Maria standing in the door way with Max. 'Great now I have to deal with the best friend' Tess thought.


“Liz why didn’t you tell him” Maria said to her before she had time to get to the door.


“Tell him what Maria?” Tess looked at her confused.


“That you are going to have a baby” Maria said happily.


“What? Maria who said I was going to have a baby?” Tess said shocked.


“You did, you took the test at the Crashdown remember?” Maria looked at her confused.


“Umm no, I think your going crazy Maria” Tess said as she went to Max and kissed him.


“Umm Liz I was there and I am not going crazy”


“Maria I'm not pregnant! If I was I wouldn’t tell you because you have a bug mouth, and you would go and tell everyone!” Tess said trying to get her to go away.


“Attitude much, God what is wrong with you Liz?” asked Maria



“Nothing is wrong me it’s just that I can’t believe I am friends with you! God! Maria you come over and tell my husband something that isn’t even true. Now I see why Michael would try and see other girls. Tess said to Maria rudely.



“Fine I'll make a mental note never to talk to you again” Maria cried walking out the door hurt.


“Good bye” Tess said slamming the door in her face. Max looked at her confused.



“You do realize that was your best friend Maria right? What’s your problem Liz” Max asked with concern.


“Nothing, my problem is nothing Max!” Tess said as she sat on the couch.


“You have never talked to Maria like that.” Max told her looking into her eyes.


“Well, things are changing” Tess snapped


“Are you really pregnant? Because if you are that would be the greatest news ever for me” Max said with excitement.


“No max I'm not pregnant!” 'God Liz is going to pay for this' Tess thought in the back of her mind.


“Then why would Maria tell me something like that?”


“I don’t maybe to get you all wound up” Tess went to kitchen and opened the fridge. She pulled out a cup of yogurt that Isabel had in there. Max watched her closely, he never seen Liz eat yogurt. He never really thought she liked it. Something was off about her.


“Why are you watching me so closely?” Tess asked as she tried to pull the top off the yogurt cup. Max took it from her and pulled it off.


“No reason” Max said. Tess found a packet of sugar and dumped it into the yogurt.


'Ok that’s not a Liz thing' Max thought watching her.


“Stop it, you are making me nervous.” Tess said as she went back into the living room and turned on the TV.


“When did you just start putting sugar in yogurt?” Max asked.


“What?” Tess looked at him funny as she ate a spoonful of yogurt.


“Nevermind” Max said as he went over to Liz and wiped some yogurt off her mouth with his thumb.


“What are you doing?” Tess asked.


“You had...some” Max then leaned in and kissed her, tasting the yogurt on the side of her mouth.


“What was that for?” Tess asked as she dropped the cup of yogurt on the floor.


“I just felt like doing it” Max said as he kissed her again.


“Well don’t stop” Tess said as she kissed him back. 'God! I missed him so much' Tess thought in the back of her mind. She missed his sexy smile and his eyes.


“Max I love you” Tess said she could feel his heart beating faster and faster.


“Liz I love you” Tess continued to kiss him. 'This is so much fun pretending to be Liz Parker' Tess thought as she was getting caught up in the moment.





*******************************




Maria didn’t want to be alone. She couldn’t believe the things that Liz had said to her. There was something different about her. She just didn’t seem like Liz she knew. Maria found herself on Michael's doorstep. She knocked on the door softly. Michael opened the door.


“What are you doing here Maria?” he asked letting her in.


“I..really need someone to talk to right now. And I don’t want to be alone” Maria said as she looked into Michael's eyes.


“Ok, what happen?” Michael said.


“Liz said some really horrible things to me” Maria told him. She went over what Liz had said to her earlier. Michael took Maria in his arms and hugged her tightly as she cried on his shoulder.


“I'm sure she didn’t mean it” Michael said trying to comfort her.


“It’s like she's not herself. She is different somehow” Jessica was listening to Maria and thinking. It was all making sense to her now. 'So Tess is back in town and Liz isn’t acting like herself' Jessica thought.



Jessica started putting two and two together. She didn’t want to say anything to anyone. She figured that it wasn’t the time right now. She needed more proof. ‘I’ll get to the bottom of this' Jessica said to herself.



“Well hello Maria” Jessica said as she smiled at Maria. Maria wiped her eyes with the back of her hand.


“Hey” She said as she sat down on the couch.


“I over heard you talking. You said Liz wasn’t acting like herself?” Jessica asked Maria.


“Yeah she was mean to me. I've never seen her like this before” Maria replied.


“I think I know why” Jessica said softly. Michael looked at her puzzled.


“What?” Maria asked.


“Ohh, nothing I was talking to my self. Well, I will let you two alone” Jessica said as she went back to her room. Jessica had a feeling the real Liz was in danger. But she needed to look into it more. 'God I hope what I am thinking isn’t really happening' Jessica said in the back of her mind as she lay down and tried to get some sleep.





******************************





Liz woke up groggy, after she fell asleep from the pain in her arm. I have to try again soon because I really don’t know how much longer I have until she comes back.



Liz had an idea, maybe she cold project herself at Max like she did before. She had to try to get his attention somehow before it’s too late. She took a deep breath and concentrated on Max’s connection. She could feel him, so she tried harder to reach him. She was being pulled in every direction. Liz opened her eyes and found herself in the bedroom. She looked over and saw Max getting hot and heavy with herself but it was really Tess. ‘Oh no, I’m to late’ she thought.


“Max! Listen to me!” Liz yelled. Max stopped as heard Liz yelling. He looked over and saw Liz standing at the foot of the bed. Tess didn’t see her.


“What, the hell?” Max said standing up quickly knocking Tess to the ground looking at Tess and then back at Liz at the foot of the bed.


“What’s wrong?” Tess asked trying to get his attention.


“I think I am going crazy” Max said as he got up and face’s Liz at the end of the bed.


“How can you be here and there?” Max shouted looking at her in fear.


“Max? You are just seeing things; they are not two of me” Tess scream while rubbing her bottom. It was hurting from the fall.



“You are lying I know something is up. How the hell can I see two of you? You are not acting your self. You are freaking me out. You are even mean to your best friend that you knew your whole life. You just stay away….I can’t be around you right now. Max held up his hand and his shield goes up.



“You just think you are seeing a ghost or something” Tess tried to convince him.



“Stay away, I have to leave. Max shuts the door sealing it with his powers.


”No, what I am seeing is real. Why would I be seeing two of you?” Max said trying to make sense of what he saying or seeing. His thoughts were jumbled he couldn’t make out any thing clear.



“Dam it!” Tess said stomping her feet.


Max drove to Michael's he didn’t know where else to go. He knocked on the door.


“Who the hell is knocking on my door this late?” Jessica said as she got up. She opened the door and was surprised to see Max in only boxers. “Umm, Max do you think you might have forgotten something? You know I’m not sure but I think Liz just might get mad at you for walking around in only boxers, sexy silk ones too. Jessica laughs looking at Max’s whole naked body. Hot damn Liz is lucky you are hot Max. Look at you.



Michael heard the commotion and came out of his room.



Max looked up and he noticed Michael walking out of his room wearing boxers with little red hearts on them.


“What? Maria gave them to me” Michael said looking at Max’s boxers. “I wouldn’t talk Max. Did you really come here like that?”


“I didn’t come here to talk about our boxers Michael, and yes I did. Something is wrong me. I'm going completely crazy.” Max confessed.


“Ok and you came all the way over here this late to tell me this” Michael asked him.


“I was with Liz in bed and then I saw her standing at the foot of the bed. It was like there two of her. She kept pleading with me to listen to her. I don’t know what’s going on! My mind is so jumbled Michael” Max screamed.


“Calm down” Michael said.


“I can’t, first it was the whole seeing Tess thing and now this!” Max screamed and started pacing around the room.



“Max calm down our going to wake Maria and Jessica just went back into her room” Michael whispered.


“I have to figure out what’s wrong with me Michael.” Max started crying. He was shaking from head to toe.


“So, you are making out with one Liz and you see the other one watching? Are you sure you are not trying to fulfill a strange fantasy? Because that doesn’t make sense you know that they are not two of them right? Maybe you need some sleep. You might as well stay here everyone else is tonight” Michael said shaking his head laughing.



Michael pulls Max in to a hug. “We will figure it out don’t worry. We will see her together in the morning. Now get some sleep.”





**********************





Liz wasn’t sure if it worked, but she was going to keep trying until she got his attention. Max Looked over and saw Liz again. This time she was crying and in pain pleading with him. Michael could tell Max was seriously loosing it.


“I can’t think straight Michael” Max said.


“Maxwell I think you are seriously loosing it.” Michael laughed.


“I don’t know what’s wrong with me!” Max yelled as he started pacing.



Liz knew her only hope was Max. She started thinking about everything they had gone through over the years. She flashed back to their wedding day. Max looked so handsome in his suit. He looked her in the eyes and smiled. She will never forget the way he looked at her on their wedding day. Liz remembered their wedding vows. Max knew exactly what he wanted to say and she could see he was so nervous.



“I look into your eyes and see everything that I have ever wanted. I know what my destiny is supposed to be. That destiny is you. Remember we create our own destinies. And I choose mine, that destiny is you. You are the only thing in my life that is worth living. I'm giving you my destiny and I am giving you all of me. You are my only hope and the only thing I want. I will always Love you” Max said nervously as he stood in front of Liz watching her cry. Max wiped her tears away with his thumb.



Liz cried as she remembered the wonderful words of their wedding vows. Now here she was in a cold dark room waiting to die. Thoughts of max were the only thing keeping her alive now .She hated seeing Max with Tess. She wanted to rip her head off. Anger stirred in Liz. She had to get out of here. She looked around the room hoping that maybe she could find something to break the door. But there was nothing, Liz kicked the wall hard and slid to the floor.


“This can’t be happening!” Liz screamed.



She flashed back to the night her and Max spent together for the first time.



Max and Liz's wedding night -



Max carried Liz through the doorway of the hotel room. He was so happy right now.


“I thought I would carry you over the threshold” Max said kissing her. Liz smiled and kissed him back.


“This is the happiest moment of my life” Liz said as Max put her down.


“Is it really?” Max asked.


“Yes” Liz said.


“You know I prayed every night for this night to happen” Max said smiling looking into her eyes lovingly.


“So did I” Liz said as she took him by the hand and pulled him towards the bed.


“Are you nervous?” Max asked.


“Yes, I'm nervous about this moment, and the life we are going to spend together” Liz replied as she kissed him.





**************************




Back to the present -



Max couldn’t sit still. Michael was trying to calm him down. He started to head to the door. Michael stopped him.


“You can’t go any where in the condition you are in” Michael said.



Jessica watched Max closely as she came out of the room. She knew that Tess was playing with his mind.


“Michael what’s going on?” Jessica asked.


“Nothing” Michael replied.


“You know what’s going on don’t you?” Max said as he faced Jessica.


“I don’t know anything! And I told you that!” Jessica yelled at him.



“You know something about Tess you are not telling anyone else!” Max replied yelling at her face.


“I don’t know anything I swear!” Max grabbed Jessica by the arm.


“Max! Stop!” Michael yelled.



Max realized what he was doing. He slowly backed away and quickly left. Michael was starting to get worried. He quickly grabbed the phone and dialed Isabel's number. Isabel heard the phone ringing. She quickly got up and answered it.


“Hello” She said tiredly through the phone.


“Izz its Michael get over here quick we have a problem” Michael said through the phone.


“Do you realize what time it is Michael?”


“Yeah I do it’s about Max, just get over here quick” Michael said as he hung up the phone. Isabel hung the phone and quickly got dressed.


“What the hell is going on” Isabel thought as she got dressed.





***********************





Tess was furious, “The bitch is pregnant!” Tess screamed. Tess slammed the car door and went into the abandoned building. “That bitch is going to pay!” Tess said furious.





*********************





Liz was furious she couldn’t stop thinking about Max being with Tess. She started shaking; she started to glow a deep green. She looked down at her hand.


“I have to control myself” Liz said as she tried to calm down. The door opened and Tess strolled in.


“Well, well, little Mrs. Liz Parker is having a baby” Tess said as she stood in front Liz. She wanted to blast her from here to kingdom come.


“What’s it to you” Liz said with anger in her voice.


“Well you see that’s a problem” Tess said coming closer to Liz. Tess used her new alien powers to restrain Liz. Liz tried to pull away put she stuck there she couldn’t move.


“Don’t hurt my child!” Liz screamed. Tess touched her stomach with the palm of her hand.


“Wow, looks like you are going to have a girl” Tess said softly.


“I hate you!” Liz said. Liz started feeling a burning sensation in her stomach. She screamed in pain. Out of no where the room began to shake. A blast of green light shot out of Liz knocking both of them to the ground. Liz fell to the floor in pain.


“Wow! You must have some strong power there, but making the building collapse won’t help you any” Tess said smiling as she left the room. Liz laid there in pain. She noticed her hand glowing again. Something told her to touch her stomach. She placed her hand over the burn on her stomach. It glowed a deep green she felt the burning sensation stop. She looked down and saw the mark on her stomach disappeared.


“I can heal myself” Liz said through her tears.





*****************************





Max drove for hours; he didn’t know where he was going. He finally stopped at the pod chamber. He sat in his car for a while. He knew something wasn’t right he could feel it.



Suddenly he felt excruciating pain shot through his stomach. Max bent over hold his stomach in pain. He finally passes out crying.





*************************




Isabel knocked on Michael's door. She was surprised to see Maria there.


“What’s going on?” Isabel asked.


“Max is serious trouble” Jessica said.


“What kind of trouble” Isabel asked.


“We don’t know, he's loosing it Isabel. He said something about seeing two of Liz. I don’t know what’s going on” Michael said.


“I think I do” Jessica said out loud.


“What?” Isabel and Michael said together.


“It has something to do with Tess” Jessica said.


“Tess is dead, it’s been a long time since anyone has mentioned her” Michael said.


“I know, I'll look into it. You guys try to find Max.” Jessica said as she left the apartment.


Maria sensed that Jessica knew something that no one else knew. She followed Jessica out of the apartment.


“Is there something your not telling anyone?” Maria asked.


“No not really” Jessica glaring at Maria.


“Look cut the crap. Why do I have a feeling you do” Maria said getting into her face.


“Don’t worry about what I know.” Jessica replied


“Whatever it is you have to tell us That is my best friend and Max’s wife. You don’t want to know that will happen if he finds out that you knew something all along and you did nothing to help.” Maria started to yell.


“I don’t have to tell you or anyone else anything until I'm good and ready” Jessica said stomping off.



Maria was determined to find out what was really going on. If she had to she would keep a close eye on Liz and Jessica. She had a feeling Jessica knew more then what anyone else knew.


“I'll get it out of her” Maria said out loud as she headed to her car and left following her.

[DestinyDreamer]

*~Six~*



The next morning Isabel dropped Michael off at his place after searching all night for Max. As she pulled up in her driveway she saw Max sitting on the doorstep. She got out of the car in a hurry.


“Where the hell did you go Max? We've been looking all over New Mexico for you” Isabel said yelling at him as she pulled her hair back out of her face.


“Sorry I'm just so freaked out right now” Max said as he stared down at his feet. Max couldn’t go back into the house and face her.


“Why are you sitting out here on the doorstep?” Isabel asked.


“Because, I can’t face Liz right now she scares the hell out of me. She has been acting so weird, something tells me she isn’t the Liz I know, especially If I am seeing a second version of her” Max said softly.


“Maybe you are stressed out. That could be why you are freaked out or something.” Isabel said concerned that her brother just might of pushed himself over the edge this time.




“Maybe I don’t know. Why would my mind play those kinds of tricks? It just doesn’t make any sense. I miss my wife. I want my Liz back.” Max said rubbing his eyes from the lack of sleep.


“Go talk to her and work this out” Isabel said going into the house.



Max sat on the doorstep for a moment. Tess saw Isabel come through the door.


“Is Max back?” She asked.


“Yeah, he's sitting on the doorstep. I think you should talk to him” Isabel said as she went to the kitchen.



Tess went and sat with Max on the doorstep. She knew what to do to make him come back to her and to stop Parker from projecting herself.


“Max you ok?” She asked as she rubbed his back.


“Yeah, I'm fine just a little freaked out.” Max said smiling at her.


“It will be ok” Tess said laying her head on his shoulder.


“Marrying you was the best thing that has ever happened to me” Max replied.


“Really?” Tess asked.


“Yeah really, does that shock you?” Max said confused.


“Not at all” Tess wanted to throw up. He was talking like she was actually Liz. She hated that. She wished she could change into herself and let him know who she really was.





*************************





Liz stared at the wall she really didn’t have anything else to do. It kept her mind off food and her stomach from hurting. She flashed back to her wedding dance with max. Michael and everyone had planned a reception and everything at the Crashdown that night.



Liz smiled it was one of the best nights of her life. Max slowed danced with her to the song “I shall believe”. Max whispered sweet words in her ear. She looked up into his eyes. She saw all the love he has for her and that just about melted her heart.


“Max you do realize after this night we will never be apart” Liz whispered. She felt like they were the only two people in the room.


“Yeah I know, that’s what I always wanted” Max replied as he danced with her.


“This is amazing Max” She said as she laid her head on his shoulder and danced.


“There will more days like this Liz” Max said kissing the top of her head.



Liz started crying again. “Max” She whispered. She thought maybe something would get his attention. ‘I miss you so much it hurts…Please help me, our baby and I need you.’





**************************





Max heard the faint whisper of his name.


“Why are you whispering my name?” Max asked Tess.


“What? I didn’t say anything” 'that bitch!' Tess thought.


“Nevermind, I need to get a shower and get some sleep”

Max said as he went into the house.


“Ok, I'm going down to the Crashdown” Tess said.



Max turned and faced her. He took her hand and quickly kissed her softly.


“What was that for?” She asked.


“Make sure you come back to me” Max said softly.


“You know I will I'm never going any where” Tess said smiling.





************************





Maria stopped Jessica in the Crashdown. Jessica really wasn’t in the mood to talk to Maria.


“Listen to me, I know we hate each other right now, But I am willing to put things aside and work together” Maria said looking at Jessica. Jessica laughed at her.


“What makes you think I want to work with you” Jessica replied.


“I want to get to the bottom of what is going on. And I think if we work together we can find out what’s really going on. You see one human brain and one alien brain equals one smart team” Maria said tapping her on the head. Jessica laughed shaking her head.


“Ok, I'll make a deal with you” Maria looked at her confused.


“What kind of deal?” Maria was almost afraid to find out.


“Well, if you make up with Michael we will work together” Jessica said smiling. She knew that Maria was a stubborn girl.


“I'm not making up with Michael” Maria said flat out as she crossed her arms.


“Well, then no deal” Jessica said as she sat down in the booth.


“Ok, Deal” Maria said shaking her hand.


“You know Michael wants you back so bad”


“What makes you say that?” Maria said looking at her surprised.


“He thinks about you twenty four seven. Its just plain gross the way he goes on and on about you.” Jessica said sarcastically rolling her eyes.



She noticed Maria looking over at Liz coming through the door. Maria grabbed Tess by the arm and pulled her to the back of the Crashdown.


“We need to talk about the other night and what you said to me. Don’t stand there and act like you don’t remember.” Maria said gripping her hard by the arm.


“Let go of Maria Now!” Tess yelled. Maria let go of her looking at her with tears in her eyes.

.
“You are supposed to be my best friend. Why are you acting this way?” Maria asked.


“What way? And who the hell is the girl you were just talking to”


“Don’t play stupid you know who she is” Maria said rolling her eyes.


“Actually, I don’t” Tess said taking a good look at Jessica. Then it dawned on her. 'Well, well if it isn’t the second in commands long lost little sis' Tess thought.


“Well, maybe I do she looks kind of familiar” Tess replied.


“You are getting off the subject here Liz. Seriously, what’s your problem?” Maria asked.


“My problem is you butting your ugly nose in my life and if you don’t stop I will seriously hurt you” Liz said looking at Maria in her eyes with an evil glare.


“With what, your alien powers that you don’t use? I know you Liz. ” Maria said sarcastically.



Tess smiled and grabbed Maria's arm. Suddenly Maria felt her arm on fire. She pulled away from Tess.



“What the hell is your problem Liz? Maria said in shock.


“Do you want more?” Tess said smiling.


“Where did that come from? Why would you do that to me?” Maria said in pain as she grabbed her arm.


“Keep your nose out of things Maria or things will get nasty” Tess said evilly as she left the Crashdown. Jessica went up to Maria and noticed the burn mark on her arm.


“Liz did that to you?” Jessica asked.


“Yeah she did, something is definitely wrong. Liz has never used that kind of power before” Maria said holding her arm in pain.


“She's not herself” Jessica said as she placed her hand over the burn mark on Maria's arm.


“You can heal?” Maria asked.


“No that’s Max's ability, I can stop the pain. There is something I want to try. Since Liz touched you I can make a connection and see her thoughts and what she is feeling”


“Wow Really?” Maria said surprised.


“Yeah, really!” Jessica said rolling her eyes. She closed her eyes and concentrated hard. Instantly she was being pulled in two directions. She felt anger and betrayal. Jessica felt this evil energy that she never felt before. It was hatred towards Max and the podsqaud then she saw a child. A little boy, a boy that’s completely human. Suddenly, Jessica was pushed back she nearly fell to the floor.


“What did you feel or see?” Maria asked helping her up.


“I don’t know its hard to tell, I saw something but..” Jessica looked at her confused.


“But what?” Maria asked.


“I don’t know what to think of it. I saw a little boy” Jessica said


“A little boy are you sure? Maybe a boy that Liz is having, do you think it’s that?” Maria asked.


“I don’t know, I also felt so much hatred.” Jessica replied with concern.


“We need to get to the bottom of this. We need to tell Max” Maria said looking at her.


“We can’t until we know more.” Jessica told her with fear in her voice.


“We have to tell someone!” Maria yelled.


“Maria, this is serious, we can’t tell anyone until we know more. We don’t want anyone to get hurt.” Jessica replied.


“OK” Maria said agreeing with her.


“That means we have to watch Liz every chance we get. We have to see if we notice anything else different about her. And then we will go from there” Jessica said.


“Sounds like a plan” Maria said.


“Yeah it’s a plan that’s forming in my head slowly. Now go talk to Michael. I have something I have to do” Jessica said as she left the Crashdown.


“Ok” Maria said wondering what Jessica had to do. She went to the back and put a cold rag on her arm before she decided to go see Michael.





****************************




Michael had the stereo blaring Metallica. He didn’t hear the knocking on the door. The knocking got louder, Michael realized someone was at the door.


“Hold on!” Michael yelled he figured it was Maria. He opened the door and was surprised to see his neighbor.


“Hi” Gwen said softly. Michael smiled.


“Is there a problem?” Michael asked. He wondered why his neighbor was dropping by. Michael and Gwen had only spoken once.


“No, I thought I would stop by and ask you if I could use your phone. My phone was cut off when I couldn’t pay the bill”


“Ohh sure” Michael let her in. Michael didn’t realize how attractive Gwen was. Her long straight brown hair was pulled up into a bun in the back of her head. She was attractive in some ways. Gwen was one of those sweet silent girl next door types. 'She's probably never had a boyfriend' Michael thought. Gwen smiled at him as she dialed the number. Her call wasn’t long and she hung the phone up quickly.


“That was fast” Michael said.


“Thanks so much” Gwen said smiling.


“Oh you are welcome” Michael said.



Maybe I should try this dating stuff the Jessica was telling me about. Michael thought. I really want Maria back but she needs to know that maybe someone else just might want me too. Michael whispered to himself. ‘I should ask her out.’



Michael looks up and sees Maria standing at the door. Maria has her mouth open like she was about to say something.


“Maria shut up” Michael said as she walked into the apartment.


Maria came up to Michael's apartment and seen Gwen leaving. She laughed, 'this girl is pathetic' Maria thought. Maria came up to the door and noticed Michael watching her. She laughed so hard.


“Michael” Maria said trying to control herself.


“Maria what do you want” Michael said starting to get mad.


“I came to talk you, but I see your busy trying to get with your lame ass next door neighbor” Maria said laughing.


“You are not seriously thinking about dating her are you? She is so not your type.” Maria said laughing.


“And if I was would that be a problem?” Michael asked as Maria laughed.


“She's so what do you can it…..Plain and just way all wrong for you.” Maria said laughing once more.


“And you think that you are my type” Maria stood there with her mouth hanging open.



“I can’t believe that you just insulted me Michael. Maria pouted.



“Well, if the shoe fits Maria you should just wear it. Michael said with a smile. I love getting her a wound up I can’t believe that I trying to get under her skin. She is so sexy when she gets mad. Michael laughs silently to himself.


“Michael I came over to say that I wanted to work things out with you. Not trade insults with you” Maria said trying to hold herself together.


“Well sorry not interested because I am dating someone else” Michael replied quickly.


“What, you are kidding right with who Ms. Average girl that lives next door?” Maria shouted in jealousy.


“Yeah exactly, we have a date tonight actually” Michael said going to the kitchen to get a Snapple out of the fridge.


“You are not serious” Maria said with her hands on her hips tapping her foot on the ground in frustration.


“I am dead serious Maria, you don’t want to be with me so I going to be with someone else. That’s the whole concept of seeing other people now isn’t it?” Michael replied sarcastically laugh at her.


“Fine Michael I came all the way over to work things but I guess were done and over with!” Maria yelled as she walked to the door in a huff,


“Yeah we are goodbye!” Michael said slamming the door behind her.


'What did I get myself into' Michael thought as he sipped on his Snapple.



'Two can play this game' Maria thought as she walked back to her car. ‘He is only doing this to make me jealous' Maria thought.





*************************




Max was in shower; Tess laid in bed waiting for him. She curled up under the covers. She was exhausted but never too exhausted for Max. She heard the bedroom door open and Max came in with nothing but a towel on. She turned and admires his nice body.


'Hello!' Tess said to herself. Max noticed her starring.


“What are you starring at?” Max asked as he started putting clothes on.


“You” Tess said smiling. As Max crawled into bed with her hoping that no bad visions will come.


“I need sleep” Max said as he laid in bed. Tess played with his hair. She wanted to do anything that would keep his attention on her.


“Max” Tess said softly in his ear.


“What?' Max said trying to pretend that he is sleeping.


“Do you think I'm beautiful” Tess asked snuggling up closer to him.


“Why would you ask a question like that? You already know the answer” Max said curiously as he turned to face her.


“I want to hear you say it. I want to hear your sweet words” Tess said kissing him softly.


“I tell you everyday that I love you and that your beautiful” Max said kissing her back. Tess wrapped her arms around his neck and snuggled up closer to him, kissing him and enjoying every moment.



Max loved Liz so much; he wanted to take in every part of her. As he was kissing her he started getting flashes again. He saw Liz screaming in pain. She was pleading with Max to help her. He backed away not able to breath for a moment.


“What?” Tess asked looking at Max innocently.


“Nothing, I really need to get some sleep” Max said as he rolled over and tried to sleep. The images of Liz in pain and screaming were haunting Max's mind.



Tess wasn’t going to give in. Every time she got close to him Liz would some how send some kind of message to him or something? 'Dam! I have to do something else' Tess thought as she laid there starring at ceiling. 'She is slowly pulling him away from me!' Tess thought as she was getting angry.



Max was fast asleep and dreaming. Tess got up and left the room. She decided she needed to check up on Little Ms. Parker again. 'I'll make her stop what she is doing' Tess said smiling an evil smile.



Isabel wondered if Max was asleep. She wanted to dream walk him and see what was in his head. She took his picture and held it tightly and closed her eyes. Instantly she was pulled into his dreams.



It was one of those romantic dreams; he was dancing with Liz slowly in the Crashdown. As they danced Isabel noticed Liz appearance changed to Tess's appearance and then back to Liz's. Out of no where the dream changed. Liz laid on the floor in so still. Isabel watched as she seen Tess come up to Liz who was lying on the floor. She placed her hand on Liz's stomach and she screamed in pain. Instantly Isabel was pulled back. Max jumped up out pf bed screaming.


“Liz!” He said looking over to find her gone.





*****************************




Michael paced in front of Gwen's doorstep, debating whether he should do this. He knocked on the door softly. Gwen was eating a bowl of cereal when she heard the knock.


She went to the door and was surprised to see Michael there.


“Hey” She said excited to see him.


“Hey, I came over to ask you something” Michael replied standing there looking like an idiot.


“Ok what is it?” Gwen Said softly.


“I was wondering if you wanted to grab a burger with me at the Crashdown tonight” Michael asked.


“Are you asking me out” Gwen replied.


“Yeah I guess” Michael said scratching his head.


“You actually want to go out with me?” Gwen smiled brightly getting excite.


“Yeah I’m your neighbor and I thought I would get to know you a little better” Michael lied.


“Ok, Umm I guess” Gwen said with a smile.


“Ok, Well I'll meet you at the Crashdown around 8?” Michael replied quickly.


“Yeah sure see you then” Gwen said as she smiled.


“Ok” Michael replied. 'Maria is going to flip out' Michael thought. ‘Watch out Maria here I come.’







*************************





Isabel couldn’t stop thinking about Max's dream. It was driving her insane. There was something wrong and Isabel could feel it. Jessica knocked on Isabel's door hoping to find some answer.


“Jessica what are you doing here?” Isabel asked surprised to see her.


“You just dreamed walked Max didn’t you?” Jessica asked.


“Yeah, how did you know?”


“I can feel it I know what’s going on with Max and Liz has something to do with Tess” Jessica said.


“I know have this feeling too. But I can’t seem to find answers” Isabel said.


“I know I need to put two and two together do you know where Liz is right now?” Jessica said as she sat down on the couch.


“I don’t know I think I she left the again You know she seem to leave a lot more then she use too. She use to tell us where she is going and now she doesn’t. I’m telling you I really don’t think that is Liz. I use to be able to feel her and now she is just plan weird. I feel like I lost her.” Isabel cried in fear.



“We will figure it out Isabel don’t worry about it. But I will tell you a secret you can tell Max because this could destroy him if he knew. The day I was here I told Liz that she was pregnant. She did have time to tell anyone about it. I think that Maria knows but no one else knows that is what the weird thing is. Now she claims that she isn’t when Max confronted her on it. We have to watch her closely because I have a very bad feeling but I just can’t prove it right now. I’m going to need your help if we are to help the real Liz. Maria is helping too we need to get together soon.” Jessica said hugging Isabel



“Ok, you can count me in. If Tess is here she better watch her ass especially if she is messing with Liz. Isabel said pacing around the living room worried.


“Great!” Jessica said as she left the house leaving Isabel to think about things.





******************************





Liz looked around the room trying to plan out an escape route. Maybe if she blew out a wall or something she could walk right out of here. She heard the door open and Tess walked in. ‘Great psycho is here’ thought Liz.


“Planning an escape?” Tess said as she threw a bottle of water at Liz.


“Just let me go” Liz said standing in front of her.


“I told you I can’t! You brought all of this on to yourself. If you would have just stayed away from him everything would have been fine. He was my husband and you just got in the way. And if you don’t stop playing those little mind games with Max I won’t be able to get close to him” Tess yelled at her.


“You must be really delusional if you think that I will just stand here and let you take my husband. You don’t even look like me. Like I ever would wear that slutty outfit you whore, but that is the only way you could ever get a man right Tess. If you get any closer to my husband I swore to god I will kill you myself bitch! ” Liz screamed.


“You won’t kill me. Remember you just a weak helpless human” Tess said getting up in her face.


“Want to make a bet!” Liz said using her powers to blast Tess across the room. Liz takes off running to the door; she made it half way until Tess used her powers to knock her to the floor.


“Nice try Bitch!” Tess said.


“If you hurt my child Max will never forget!” Liz said trying to get up.


“What he doesn’t know won’t hurt him” Tess said pulling Liz off the floor and tossing her across the room.


“Don’t touch me!” Liz yelled.


“I'm tired of you being in the way! Its always Liz this, Liz that!” Tess yelled in disgust.


“What do you expect you look like me you dumb bitch?!” Liz said getting up and facing Tess once more.


“Things would have been perfect of he had never healed you or fell in love with you!” Tess yelled.


“You just can’t get over that can you that he wants me not you. He doesn’t love you like he loves me! And will never love you the way he loves me!” Liz said as she watched her hand glow a deep green.





***********************************





Maria knocked on Isabel's door. Isabel opened the door and Maria rushed right in.


“Ok hi Maria” Isabel said laughing closing the door.


“Michael is such a jackass!” Maria said as she plopped down on the couch.


“Are you just figuring that out now? What did he do?” Isabel asked sitting down next to her.


“He's dating this girl that moved in the apartment next to him” Maria said in a huff.


“Yeah and...?” Isabel asked.


“This so girl is so lame and she isn’t even Michael's type. I've seen her and she has no taste in style and is about the dullest person in the world” Maria said.


“Have you ever talked to the girl Maria?”


“No not really.” Maria replied thinking about Michael with other just makes her so mad.





*******************************





Gwen was freaking out; she couldn’t find anything in her apartment. There was stuff scattered everywhere and there was some stuff she hadn’t even unpacked yet. She couldn’t think straight. She was nervous about her date with Michael. He was the first guy that has talked to her since she came to Roswell.



The only thing that could calm her down right now was her music. She pulled her note book out of her book bag and started writing down things she was feeling. Then she would sing what she wrote. That was basically her ritual when she needed to calm down. And it always got her through the day.


Gwen didn’t like what she wrote and crumpled up the piece of paper and threw it on the floor.


“God!” She yelled as she plopped down on the couch.





**************************



“Oh, you think you are a bad ass now Liz with your powers? I’m not scared of you. To think you, a human with powers like us. You still don’t even know what you can do.” Tess said sarcastically laughing at Liz.



“You really think you are better just because you are Alien..remember Tess you are part human too. But, I can’t think which part of that you have. You want to fight. I show you fight Tess. But I will fight the old fashion way. All human no powers, I bet I still could kick your ass. Liz said trying to calm her powers down.



“Bring it on” Tess said laughing at her.



Liz walked right up toTess and punched her as hard as she could right in face. ”That is for kissing my husband you tramp.” Liz said feeling all the anger coming back.



Liz jumped on Tess and punched her one more time “And that is for trying to be me you skanky whore.” Liz said as Tess blasted Liz with her powers.



Liz flew back on to the ground, as Tess struggled to get up. “Bitch! You hit my face. I can’t believe that you hit me.”



“That is right and there is more where that came from. You can’t even fight with out using you powers. What, Tess are you scared that a weak human can kick your ass? Liz said as she stood up and walked back over to Tess slowly.



Liz wasn’t backing down from Tess. She stood their staring her down. Tess laughed and turned to leave. ‘I can’t let her win. That felt great hitting her.’ Liz thout as she fell to floor exhausted.



Liz coughed so hard she almost thought she coughed up a lung.
“Max! Max! Please!” She yelled, knowing she was in deep this time. Max laid in bed tired from the lack of sleep. Suddenly, he heard Liz's voice screaming his name.


“Liz?' He said looking around wondering where her voice was coming from. Then her voice died down. Max knew something was wrong he could feel it in his bones. Liz sounded sacred and weak. Max knows some thing is up with her.





***************************


Later that Night -



Jessica met Maria at the Crashdown. Maria knew she didn’t find anything out.


“Any luck?” Maria asked.


“Nope, I went to see Liz at Iz's and she wasn’t there.” Jessica said as she sipped on a cherry coke.


“Yeah, so is Michael really dating that Gwen girl?” Maria asked casually.


“What, what girl?” Jessica said confused.


“You know Gwen that girl that moved in next door to him” Maria said pouting.



“Oh, you mean Gwen Thompson, the girl that has a voice of an angel” Jessica said trying to get Maria all riled up.



“Voice of an Angel huh?” Maria said with a hurt look on her face.


”Yeah, she sings like an angel, and I heard she writes her own music. She also was accepted into these big fancy music schools and she turned them all down” Jessica said laughing silently at the look that Maria was giving her.


“Wow” Maria said thinking. She looked up and saw Gwen walk through the Crashdown doors. 'Great she sits at my table' Maria said to herself as she went over to her table.


“Hi, welcome to the Crashdown” Maria said ready to take her order.


“Hi I’m waiting on someone” Gwen said cheerfully.


“Oh, I'll come back” Maria noticed the sheet music that Gwen had laid in front of herself.


“Did you write that?” Maria asked.


“Umm, yeah its violin sheet music. I composed it myself. I'm also composing a song that someone will sing one day hopefully” Gwen said smiling.



Maria was amazed at how the music looked. 'She definitely knows what she is doing' Maria thought.


“Do you sing?” Maria asked.


“Yeah, a little bit” Gwen said. Maria could tell she was uncomfortable talking about it.


“Oh, ok I leave you alone right now” Maria said as she walked away.


'This girl has more talent in her then me!' Maria thought as she went into the back of the Crashdown. Jessica could sense that Maria was jealous. She started laughing as she seen the green ugly monster of jealously all over Maria.





*********************




Liz needed to escape. 'Next time Tess comes back I will get her where it hurts' Liz thought as she coughed.



Liz was so afraid she was going to loose her baby. If she lost her baby and never had the chance to tell Max she was actually pregnant her would fall apart. Liz held her stomach. ‘I wonder if I can connect with the baby.’ Liz thought



Liz closed her eyes and let the connection of her baby form. She could hear the baby’s heart beat. She silent told the baby to hang in there that mommy will protect her. She was so happy that the baby was ok. Now she could feel the baby’s connection right along with Max’s



“Tess is going to pay this time” Liz said out loud. There was no time to wait. She needed an escape plan and she needed it now. Liz tried to blow the door out but Tess must have done something to it. The door wouldn’t budge even an inch.


“Damn it!” Liz yelled as she slumped to the floor. Liz was tired, angry, frustrated, hungry and thirsty. She wasn’t going to die in some old dirty warehouse. She was not about leave Max after everything they have been through.





**************************





Max went into the living and found Liz sitting on the couch. Tess wanted some answers. She knew she would get answers to where her son was. She hadn’t brought it up but she thought this would be a good time. Max sat next to her on the couch and grabbed her hand.


“Max, do you ever wonder about your son and how he is?” Tess asked snuggling up to him.


“Everyday” Max replied.


“Do think about where he is?” She asked.


“Yes, He's probably with a good family who could take care of him. Why are you bringing all this up?” Max asked


“Just curious” Tess said looking at him. 'He put our son up for adoption! That, Son of bitch! I can believe him. I leave the baby in his care and he does this' Tess thought.


“Lets go down to the Crashdown and get something to eat” Max said.


“Sure I could use some food right now” Tess said as she helped Max off the couch and headed out the door.



*************************



Maria watched Michael talking and having a good time with Gwen. She already hated the girl. Maria went to her table and gave Michael a cherry cola.


“Thanks” Michael said smiling. Maria smiled at him and laughed.


“Whatever!” Maria said as she rolled her eyes at him.


“Let me guess ex girl friend” Gwen asked.


“It’s complicated” Michael said as he noticed Gwen's music.


“Yeah I compose music” Gwen said sipping on her soda.


“Wow, I would love to hear it” Michael said.


“No! I don’t play anything for anyone” Gwen said suddenly.


“Why not?” Michael asked.


“It’s complicated and a long story.” Gwen said hoping to change the subject.


“Well, I have all night” Michael said smiling.


“Trust me you don’t want to know” Gwen said as she looked down at the sheet music.


“When you are ready you can tell me” Michael said while smiling at her.


“Ok, you know you are the first person I've actually talked to since I came to Roswell” Gwen said happily.



Maria wanted to break Michael's neck. Jessica enjoyed watching Maria get jealous it was so hilarious to her.


“Green with envy are we?” Jessica asked while laughing at her.


“Shutup!” Maria said. Maria looked up and saw Max and Liz walking into the crashdown. Tess glared at Maria. 'She knows something' Tess thought. Her and Max sat in the back booth. Maria went up to them.


“Hey” Maria said. Tess didn’t say anything to her.


“Hey, Maria” Max looked over at Tess knowing that she wasn’t talking to Maria.


“Liz, I know there is something seriously wrong with you right now. I know what I know. Why would you tell Max you are not pregnant? That is just so wrong” Maria said walking away.



“Why does Maria keep bringing this up Liz?” Max asked looking Liz straight in her eyes.


“I don’t know Max. Maybe it has something to do with Michael I don’t really know” Tess said trying at act innocent.


“You told me you are not pregnant is that right?” Max asked hoping to get a straight answer for once.


“Maybe I am maybe I'm not” Tess replied


“I don’t understand you Liz, you are acting differently. First it’s your attitude, then the thing with sugar and yogurt and now this” Max said getting mad.


“Max just back off for a sec ok” Tess said getting really aggravated with him and everyone else.


“Sure, but I keep feeling you pull away from me. I don’t want that to happen. Remember what you promised me on our wedding day” max said.


“Yeah, and I Intend to keep that promise” Tess said having no idea what the promise was.



Maria came over and handed Max a cherry coke and then took Max by the arm and pulled him into the back of the Crashdown.


“Maria what are you doing?” Max asked.


“Look I know there is something different about Liz. I can’t put my finger on it, but Jessica and I are looking into it. God! She is so not Liz! Look at what she is wearing and see how she is acting? Come on Max you are her husband. You have been in love with her since forever. I say Fallow what your gut is telling you. I know that, that person out there isn’t Liz and we are wasting time and our Liz is somewhere out there. She could even be hurt for all we know.” Maria said while she was sniffing her oil.


“I know, lately I have been going insane with this, the dreams. The way she has been acting, the visions.” Max said rubbing his eyes.


“Something is definitely wrong” Maria said.


“I know, she says she isn’t pregnant, but why would she lie to me. Why would she tell you that she was and me that she wasn’t?” Max asked confused


”I don’t know, but I was here when she took the test Max. I wouldn’t lie to you like that. I will find out Max, I promise you that” Maria said hugging Max.



Max glanced at Liz through the door. He flashed back to the way Liz looked at him on their wedding day and the way she looked at him everyday since then. Now when she looked at him Max saw something different.


“Maria what ever it is we have to keep it from ruining what Liz and I have” Max said softly.


“I know, I don’t want to see you two apart. You and Liz were meant for each other” Maria said softly.


“Nothing will come between us I wont let it” Max said with determination.


“I won’t let anything come between you and my best friend either. I'll do whatever I can to find out what’s going on with her” Maria said as Max went back out to sit with Tess again.


“So, what did Deluca have to say?” Tess asked hating the fact that Maria was talking behind her back to Max.


“Nothing” Max said looking into her eyes and not seeing the Liz he knew.


“Maria is getting on my nerves” Tess said making a face that Max has never seen before.


“Maria never got on your nerves before?” Max replied.


“Yeah, well things are different now max.” Tess said as she leaned over and kissed Max softly. Instantly, Max saw another flash. He saw Liz holding her stomach pleading with someone not to kill her child and herself. Then Max heard something that freaked him out the most. He heard ‘Daddy please help me and mommy’ Max sat back in the booth looking at Tess in shock. Tess knew he had another flash.


“Did you have a flash or something?” Tess asked looking at him concerned.


“No” Max said softly. He lied, he hated lying to Liz.


“You don’t have to lie to me max” Tess said looking him straight in the eyes.


“Why would I lie?” Max said sipping on his cherry coke shaking.


“I don’t know” Tess said. She wanted to get even closer to Max. She wanted Max so bad that she would do anything to get to that point. The point where Max wants her so bad he can barely stand it. But she couldn’t do that looking like Liz.


“You know what? I want a nice romantic evening with you” Tess said smiling thinking of endless possibilities of what they could do.


“I do too” Max said softly feeling sick to his stomach while he was saying it. Tess could sense some hesitation in his voice.


“Why do I sense that you don’t want to be with me? Why do I even bother?” Tess said putting her hands up in the air with frustration.


“Liz you know more then anything that I want to be with you” Max replied.


“Then, what is it? Do I not turn you on?” Tess asked hurt.


“ Liz..I” Max stuttered


“Don’t even say anything right now. I'm leaving” Tess walked out and left Max alone in the Crashdown. Tess was angry and frustrated. 'This is your entire fault Liz Parker' she said kicking the side of someone's car parked in front of the Crashdown.





*****************************




“Dam it!” She yelled as she walked away.


'Things are not going my way!' Tess thought to herself. 'I'm going to make Max want me, and I will do anything to get what I want!' Tess thought as she started coming up with a plan. 'Time for plan B' Tess thought as she smiled and walked towards the car.


“Max Evans your mine” Tess whispered softly as she smiled.







*******************************







Max sat there in shock trying to think of what it was that he heard. ’I have no idea what the hell that was but I need to tell Maria and Jessica I know that maybe they can help he figure all of this out.’ Max thought.



“Hey, Maria Come here I need to tell you something and got Jessica too. Max yelled.

[DestinyDreamer]

~Seven~
 
Jessica noticed Max all alone. She went to sit across from him in the booth.

“Problems?” She asked.

“Everything is going wrong” Max replied softly.

“Everything will be ok” Jessica replied.

“How do you know” Max asked.

“Because I just know” Jessica replied as she got up and left.  As she left the Crashdown she noticed so called Liz Parker trying to find her keys.

“Loose something?” Jessica asked.

“Yeah and buzz off” Tess said finally finding her keys.

“What is your problem?” Jessica asked.

“I don’t have a problem. If I did I wouldn’t tell you!”  Tess snapped back.

“I know you are not Liz, stop hiding. I know who you really are” Jessica said with a serious tone.

“Do you really, does Michael the second in command,His little rotten sisterreally know who I really am” Tess snapped back.

“I do Tess, I'm not going to say anything to anyone. I'm going to let Max figure out what’s going on.  I will let him see through the real you. Where is Liz? You evil skanky bitch” Jessica yelled back.

“I don’t know what you are talking about” Tess said innocently snaring at Jessica.

“Fine, we will find out where you are keeping her. And when we do you will be so sorry you messed with any of us” Jessica said as she walked away.

“Is that a threat?!” Tess said grabbing Jessica by the arm.

“Yeah and what are you going to do kill me?” Jessica said laughing

“I just might if you don’t watch your step” Tess said pulling her arm tighter.

“Let go of me bitch” Jessica said pushing off with her powers glaring at Tess.

“Powerful are we?” Tess said surprised.

“You don’t even begin to know how powerful I am” Jessica said standing her ground.

“I'm so scared!” Tess said sarcastically as she hopped in the car and drove away.
 
Max sat in the Crashdown till closing, Michael left with Gwen and went home. Maria was cleaning and finishing her work up.When she looked up andsawMax sitting there in his old booth with a worried look. 'Just old times thinking of Liz ' Maria thought as she went to sit with him.

“Maria, I don’t understand. Iheardsomething tonight. I could hear a little voice calling me. Do you want to know what it said?” Max said softly.
 
“Yes, what did it say to you?” Maria asked grabbing his hand looking at him in sorrow.
 
“Daddy, please help me and mommy.” Max said crying.
 
“No, Shit!! I can’t believe that. Max are you sure you heard right? Maybe Liz really isn’t Liz. Have you ever thought of that? Now you must believe that Liz, your Liz is pregnant with your baby. So, where is she? Maria said getting all nervous.
 
“I don’t know Maria, but I need help because I really don’t know what is really anymore. Max said wiping the tears from his face.

“I don’t either but you and Liz will get through this” Maria said. Max smiled and glanced over at Maria.

“Thanks” Max said softly.

“Any time, I'm here for you and Liz night and day” Max sensed some thing; he looked around and felt something. It was so strong it overwhelmed him.

“I don’t either but you and Liz will get through this” Maria said. Max smiled and glanced over at Maria.

“Thanks” Max said softly.

“Any time, I'm here for you and Liz night and day” Max sensed some thing; he looked around and felt something. It was so strong it overwhelmed him.
 “Ok I heard that” Maria said looking around.

“I heard it too” Max said softly. The whispers started getting louder. It was definitely Liz and she was definitely trying to tell them something.

“That can’t be Liz?” Maria said listening. Max listened closely. The whispers got louder until they could understand what the words were. 'Max, Max I love you' Liz kept saying over and over again.

“Something is wrong I know it” Max said as she got up. Maria followed him out the door. They found that her car was gone.

“Dam it!” Max said.

“Let me lock up and we can take my car” Maria said. Maria quickly locked up and they were off.  Few minutes later they pulled up in front Isabel's house.  Max sat in the car for a moment.

“This is getting strange Max” Maria replied.

“I know, but I think Jessica knows there is something going on” Max said as he got of the car. Maria got of the car and followed him.

“Max, I told you me and Jessica will find out what’s going on” Maria said worrying about Max state of mind.

“What if it’s nothing, what if it’s just me? Maybe I still feel for Tess” Max said getting frustrated.

“Tess is gone; you and Liz are in love how can you still feel for her?” Maria asked him get confused.

”I don’t know! Maria none of this makes sense any more!” Max said as he went into the house. Tess heard the door open and saw Max walk in. She went up to him and grabbed him by the arm and dragged him to the room.
 
Maria stood there with a shocked looked on her face. ‘Well, I guess that means I should go. God I hate this I want my best friend back.’ Maria whispered
 
***********************************
 

“Max I want you so bad” She whispered.  She started kissing Max, but it justdidn’t feel right to him.

“Liz..” He said as she kept kissing him. Tess put her finger to his mouth.

“Don’t say anything just close your eyes” Tess whispered.Max closed his eyes. Tess started to mind warp him. 'Done' Tess said softly as he opened his eyes.

“Liz your so beautiful” Max said as he leaned in to kiss her. Max wanted her more then anything. Tess wanted this; she smiled as Max touched her and kissed her.

“Max, don’t stop” she said softly as he laid her on the bed.
 
******************************
 
Liz laid there trying not to think of food, but her stomach was growling. Suddenly, she was hit with flashes. She saw Max with Tess, on the bed.
 
‘Oh hell no, Tess has gone to far now. I wished that Max could see through that evil bitch.I guess I just have to show him.’ Liz said to herself
 
“Ok little angel I might need your help. Let’s show daddy who he really is with.” Liz whispered while holding her stomach.
 
Liz closed her eyes and formed a connection with her little girl. She whispered to her daughter about talking to daddy and to save him for the evil lady. She is trying to take daddy away from us. She is pretending to be mommy. Let’s try to show daddy who she really is.
 
“No! Max! Please don’t sleep with her!” Liz yelled. Max heard Liz yelling, he pulled away from Tess.

“Did you hear that?” he said out of breath.

“No, just ignore it whatever it is” Tess said trying to get his attention by pulling off her shirt and exposing her bare skin. Max smiled as Tess wrapped her arms around his neck.

It was like she was watching a movie with no sound. Seeing Max touch Tess the way he touched her was fueling something inside her that she couldn’t describe.
 
“Ok sweetie let’s show daddy. Liz said softly while hold on to her stomach. Their connection was getting stronger everyday. They pushed through to Max trying one more time.

“Max! Please!” She pleaded with him again. Max heard her plea again and pulled away once more. Only this time Max looked into the eyes of Tess not his Liz. Max stood up in a rush shocked at what he was seeing.

“What is it now Max?” Tess asked smiling as she stood up with out her shirt trying to get Max to take off more.

“Nothing, this doesn’t feel right” Max said as went into the bathroom trying to understand what he just saw.

“It doesn’t feel right because that bitch is in your head again!” Tess said as she put her shirt back on. Max knew he wanted Liz more then anything in world.  Was there something really wrong with him? Why did he just see Tess in there?
 
*************************************
 
Jessica came into Michael's apartment, and slammed the door behind her. Anger was fueling in her. She had to tell someone about Tess. Jessica noticed Gwen sitting on the couch with Michael.

“What’s your problem” Michael asked.

“Well...It’s a long story it has to do with you know the whole were not from Roswell situation” Jessica said trying to hint to Michael it was alien business.

“Oh right” Michael said as he got up.

“Well, I think that’s my cue to leave” Gwen said as Michael walked her out. Gwen and Michael said their friendly good byes to each other.Michael went back into the apartment to talk to Jessica. Michael could tell Jessica was freaking out.

“Is there something wrong?” Michael asked.

“Yeah, there is! God! This sucks! Liz is in so much danger right now!” Jessica said as she paced around the room.

“What? How do you know Liz is in danger?” Michael asked getting worried for his friend.

“God! I said too much! Me and my big mouth!” Jessica said as she plopped down on the couch.

“So you do know something, spill it now sis or else I will beat it out of you” Michael said looking at her.

“If I tell you have to promise not tell Max” Jessica said softly hoping that Michael would understand.

“Fine” Michael said waiting.

“Ok, here it goes. Tess well she's....Not dead like everyone thinks” Jessica said quickly waiting for Michael to start yelling.

“Of course she is dead, Liz saw her die” Michael said looking at her.

“Actually, no she didn’t, Tess mind warped her and made her think that she died, but she really didn’t” Jessica replied

“What?” Michael said in shock.

“I know it’s shocking” Jessica said.

“Where is Tess now?” Michael asked. That was the part that Jessica didn’t want to tell anyone, so she lied.

“I don’t know” Jessica said lying. Michael could see there was more she wasn’t telling.

“There is more isn’t there” Michael asked looking at her straight into her eyes.

“Michael, leave it at that! I have to figure some thing out first. You have to promise me you can’t tell Max or anyone that I said anything to you about this” Jessica said with a serious tone.

“I promise” Michael said but in the back of his mind he was thinking 'Max needs to know about this'
 
**************************
 
Tess was threw waiting for Max to come out of the bathroom. She thought this time her mind warp would stay, but somehow Liz was interfering with it. She laid there in bed frustrated. Max couldn’t go back in that room. But he knew he had too. He came back into the room and grabbed his shirt and pulled it on.

“Are you leaving or something?” Tess asked curiously.

“Yeah, I think we need to spend some time apart, I need to clear my head. I'm going to stay at Michael's” Max said grabbing some clothes and shoving them into a bag.

“Max, don’t go” Tess said stopping him. Max pulled away, he had to go. He couldn’t even look at Liz right now because every time he looked at her he saw Tess. It was killing him.

“I'll see you tomorrow” He said softly as he left the room.
 
 
*******************************
 
Jessica sat on he bed thinking. Maybe if she made a deal with tess, she could save Liz and the baby.  'Liz has no idea how powerful her child is' Jessica thought as she lay down in her bed. But there was no way in hell Jessica was going to make a deal with Tess. That would be betraying every one, and she couldn’t do that. She had just gotten to know Michael and she didn’t want to ruin anything. But there was so much about Tess he needed to know. They all needed to know that Tess wasn’t dead and that Liz was in danger.
 
********************************
 
Liz paced back and fourth, she still had the image in her mind of Tess and Max together. At least I think I got through and showed Max who Tess really was.

“God! This is going to ruin what we have!” She said out loud. She needed to get out of here. Anger fueled inside of her. Herhand started glowing a deep green. Liz looked down at her hand and then she looked at the door.

“Bingo!” Liz said out loud as she went to the door. She placed he hand on the center of the door and the metal door started heating up.

“If I just heat the metal up and melt it I can melt a hole in the door and get out of here” Liz said as she used all her strength to melt a hole in the door. A few minutes into it she collapsed. She was tired and had no energy. “Ok I have to do this” Liz said as she slowly got up and continued to melt the door with her powers.
 
********************************
 
There was a soft knock on the door of Michael's apartment. Michael opened the door and saw Max.

“Max, what are you doing here?” he asked.

“I can’t stay with Liz” Max replied with a sad face.

“Why?” Michael asked.

“It doesn’t feel right, it’s like she is a different person” Max said as he walked in.

“Max, we need to talk about something, But we can’t talk about here because I don’t want Jessica to know what I am about to tell you” Michael said softly pointing at the door of Jessica’s room.

“Ok what is it” Max ask him.

“Come on” Michael motioned for him to go outside. Michael told Max everything. Max wasn’t too happy.

“She knew about this and didn’t tell us!” Max said yelling.

“She said Liz was in danger or is in danger” Max said while pacing back and forth like a caged wild animal.

“There is something else Michael, I know it I can feel it.”

“Tess is playing with your mind, maybe she is playing with Liz's mind and trying to get you to break up with Liz” Michael asked

“No it’s more then that” Max said

“What else could it be, that maybe might explain why Liz is acting psychotic right now” Michael said trying to get Max to see what he was saying.

“I don’t know!” Max yelled. Max's mind flashed back to what Liz was wearing, the way she acted. Then he remembered the yogurt incident.

“Sugar in the yogurt” Max said softly.

“What?” Michael asked.

“Liz, she put sugar in her yogurt, and she doesn’t even eat yogurt” Max said startled by this sudden realization.

“Wait, doesn’tTess eat....” Michael stopped himself.

“God, you don’t think that maybe...?” Max came to the realization of what might be happening.

“Itcan’t be! No, I can’t believe that I didn’t know. I should of known that Liz was in trouble.” Max yelled as dropped to his knees in horror realizing the truth.

“Max, I think we have a problem here” Michael said kneeling grabbing Max as he cried.
 
Max just sat there crying. Trying to get himself to understand where it all went wrong.

“Yeah we do, let’s go make plans first.” Michael saidpulling Max up and brings him into the living room.
 
******************************
 
Liz almost had a hole in the door big enough for her to walk through. Liz fell to the floor exhausted again. She had to get back up and get herself out of that place. Finally she gathered the strength and climbed through the hole in the door.

“Free at last! Now that bitch is going to pay!” Liz said as she tried to get up and make it back home. I really need to find someplace to hide. I don’t have the strength to walk much less stand up. I have to hide so just in case psycho comes back I won’t have to worry.
 
Liz stumbled around for a few feet look for the best place to hide. She saw some bushes out in the distance. ’I think that is perfect for now.’ Liz said softly.
 
She was almost there her vision started to get blurry and she was feeling very dizzy ‘Please not know I need to get to those bushes’ Liz fell in her knee looking up as she crawled the rest of the way to the bushes. Once hidden safely Liz fell into a deep sleep. As she slept her daughter put up a protective shield as they rested.
 
********************************
 
~The Next morning~
 
Liz woke up all disorientated and starving. She slowing got up. ‘What the hell where am I? That is right I escaped. I have to get out of her.’ she thinks. 
 
Liz slowly crawls out from the bushes. She looks up and squints at the brightness of the sun. ‘Well I better get moving before Tess shows up.’ Liz thought. I really need some food and water.
 
Maybe that store up ahead will have some water I could have at least. Oh wait I still have some money in my pockets “Thank God I can eat.” Liz said all happy. I just need to sit down and eat a good meal. Then I could worry about finding a way back to Roswell.
 
~Few hour later~
 
Kyle was coming back into town. He hadn’t been in Roswell since graduation and he couldn’t wait to see everybody. As he was driving down the highway his headlights of his car picked up someone walking. He looked and noticed it was Liz. Liz fell to the ground exhausted. Kyle pulled off the road and went to help her.

“Liz? Can you hear me?” Kyle said helping her up.

“Kyle? Thank god!” Liz said crying as she hugged him.

“What happened to you?” Kyle asked looking at her dirty and ripped clothes.

“Take me home I have some business to take care of” Liz said as Kyle helped her into the car.  Kyle didn’t know where to take her, the place he thought of was Maria's. Maria looked out the window and saw Kyle's car in the drive way.

“Kyle?” She said as she walked out to the drive way.

“Long time no see,nice to see you Maria. I found Liz wondering down the highway” Kyle said as he helped Liz out of the car.

“What? Liz?” Maria looked at her, she looked horrible.

“Maria!” Liz said hugging her tightly.

“One minute your fine and acting weird, the next minute you are wondering the dessert? What’s going on” Liz could barely stand she was so exhausted. Maria took her into the house and laid in her in the bed. Maria came out of the bedroom and went to talk to Kyle in the living. She hugged him tightly.

“Boy I just get back in town and there is already alien drama” Kyle said laughing.

“Something is going on Kyle” Maria said looking at him seriously.

“I know there isbecause you found Liz like this” Maria said grabbed the phone and started to dial Isabel's number. Tess was busy trying to figure out what she was going to do next. She heard the phone ring. She waited for Isabel answer. It rang and rang. Tess heard the shower running, 'figures!' Tess said out loud as she answered the phone.

“Hello” She said into the phone. Maria was surprised to find Liz's voice on the other end.

“Liz?” She looked over at Kyle confused.

“That would be me Maria what the hell do you want” Tess snapped.

“Oh umm, I was wondering if Isabel was there” Maria said quietly.

“She's in the shower call back later” Tess hung up on her. Maria put the phone down.

“Ok,how can Liz be on the phone, and Liz be in your room at the same time? What’s going on?” Kyle asked. Maria Looked at him dumbfounded. Liz sat up in bed gasping for breath.

“Oh god!” Liz yelled as she got off the bed.

Maria and Kyle quickly went to the room.

“What’s wrong?” Maria asked her as she brushed her hair away from her face.

“Oh god! Tess! She is me! Oh god! I have to go! I have to tell Max!” Liz said as she grabbed her stomach.

“Liz sweetie you need to eat something, and drink something. Kyle get a glass of water” he went to get a glass of water. 'Well that explains the weird behavior' Maria thought as Kyle came back in with a glass of water.

“Where is Max?” Liz asked, as she sipped on the water.

“I don’t know but we will find him” Maria said. Michael and Max pull up in front Isabel's house. Max walks in furious. He walked in and saw Tess sitting on the couch.

“Well where have you been?” she asked. She saw the look on Max's face.

“I know who you are and I know you have been playing us all along!” Max yelled. Isabel came out of the bathroom and heard the yelling.

“What’s going on?” Isabel asked as she was drying her hair with a towel.

“Isabel, stay right there” max said.

“What’s going on?” Isabel asked again.

“Yeah,Max why are you yelling at me?” Tess knew something was up.

“Show me! Show that you are really Tess!” Max yelled. Tess looked over at him and smiled.

“Did your so called wife Liz tip you off!” Tess yelled as she used her powers to change back into herself. “God that feels so much better!” Tess said smiling.

“I can’t believe this! We almost slept together!” Isabel and Michael looked at her with shock on their faces.

“We would have if it wasn’t for her!” Tess yelled. Max wanted to break her neck for this.

“Where is Liz?” Max demanded. Tess laughed; Max waved his hand and sent Tess flying.

“Tell me!” Max yelled. Michael grabbed Max by the arm and kept him from doing any more harm. Michael pulled Max outside.

“You don’t want to kill her, because if you do she won’t tell you where Liz is” Michael said. Max should have known earlier.

“God I am idiot!” Max said pacing back and fourth.

“She played you and all of us once again. We can’t let her do that again Max. What’s important is that we find out where she is keeping Liz” Michael said.
 
****************************

“Maria I have to find him!” Liz said getting up weakly.

“Ok, first Liz your going to lay here and rest” Maria said as she and Kyle went back into the living room.

“What are we going to do?” Kyle asked.

“First I'm going to call Max” Maria picked up the phone and quickly dialed Max's cell. Max heard his phone ringing and quickly pulled it out of his pocket.

“Hello” Max said.

“Max itsMaria we seriously need to talk” Maria said frantically.

“Maria now isn’t the time” Max said while walking around the room.

“Will you have time for me if Liz was here?Or I should say the real Liz” Maria said as he heard Max pause for a moment.

“Don’t let her leave your site I'll be right there” Max hung the phone up.

“She knows where Liz Is?” Michael asked.

“Yes, you stay here and tie her up, lock her up or do what you have to do, while I go see Maria” Max said as he quickly left.
 
Liz finally fell asleep, Max walked in and Maria pulled him into the bedroom where Liz was.

“Kyle was driving back into town and found her” Maria said quietly. Max next to Liz on the bed. “God! How am I going to make this up to her' Max thought as he started crying.

“Well, we will give you two a few minutes” Kyle said pushing Maria out of the room.

Max brushed Liz's hair away from her face. Liz slowly started to wake. She looked into his eyes and smiled and then she quickly got up and wrapped her arms around him tightly.

“Max, please tell me you are real” Liz said crying holding onto him tightly.

“It’s me, I'm so sorry Liz” Max said kissing her shoulder trying to make things better. Liz started crying again.  Max tried to sooth her and calm her down.

“I want to see her” She said softly.

“Liz, no I know what will happen” Max pleaded with her.

“Max please” She said. Max wiped her tears away with his thumb.

“Liz, just know that we will get through this” Max replied caringly.

“Max, I want you to know that I am pregnant” Liz took his hand and placed it on her stomach. Max was hit with a flash, he saw a little girl with dark hair, laughing and playing.

“Oh god Liz, how can make everything up to you” Liz put her finger to his mouth and kept him from speaking.

“Just let me see Tess” Liz said a bit louder.

“Ok” Max said helping her up out of bed. Max knew that if Liz got in front of Tess there would be a disaster. But Max knew this was something she had to do. Max wanted to do anything to make up for everything. God! He almost slept with Tess again. 'This is my entire fault' Max kept thinking. Liz didn’t say anything to him in the car as they drove.
 
*******************************
 
Michael managed to lock Tess up in Isabel's back room. Isabel sat in the living with shock and horror on her face.

“That’s why Liz was acting weird, she wasn’t really Liz” Isabel said.

“Yeah, she fooled us once again” Michael replied. Michael heard the car pull up in the driveway. He looked out the window and saw the real Liz coming up the driveway.

“Where is she” Liz asked. Michael told her in the backroom. Max followed Liz into the backroom. He wanted to make sure that Liz didn’t do anything drastic.
 
Michael went to the phone and dialed his number to get a hold of Jessica. He had an idea and he was pretty sure that Jessica could pull the idea off.
 
Liz opened the door and saw Tess standing in the back room. Tess could see the fury in her eyes.

“Max can you leave us alone” Liz said softly.

“Liz..I” Max mumbled searching for the right words.

“Please Max, just do it. For us and our marriage” Max sighed and left them alone, just like Liz wanted. Tess stood there staring down Liz.

“This is the second time you ruined my life” Liz said standing her ground.

“It won’t be the last bitch” Tess said. Liz waved her hand and pushed Tess against the wall.

“You bet it will be the last time! I hate you! You almost took Max away from me and our first child” Liz yelled at her in disgust.

“And I bet you hateMax right about now aren’t you?” Tess said laughing as she came closer to Liz.
 
“I will let you on to a little secret I have been hiding for a while. That baby was never Max’s. I mind warped him into thinking that we had sex. Believe me I tried hard to get into his pants but I never could. I had to get Max to could back to Antar it was the deal. Then you missed it all up. So, I thought why not kill to birds with one stone and make you and him believe that I had Max’s baby. Tess said laughing at her walking closer.

“I can’t believe that you would do that to Max and your own baby.” Liz said crying getting angrier.

“The only thing that I didn’t know is that Max had to give me the seal in in order to be Queen and the child to be next in line to be king. You wouldn’t do anything any ways you don’t have the back bone” Tess said evilly.

“Want to make a bet?” Liz said as she used her powers to fling Tess against the wall. Max started to run into the room but Liz kept the door locked and kept him out.

“You ruined everything!” Tess yelled as she slowly got up.

“It’s payback time bitch! You are not going to get away with ruining my life, and what I have with Max and get away with it this time. You are not even worth looking at!” Liz yelled as she felt every little drop of energy coming out of her.

“What are you going to do with me then?” Tess asked sarcastically.

“You just have to wait and see” Liz said leaving the room and slamming the door. Max followed her out the door; but Liz pushed him away with her powers.

“Liz!” He yelled as he followed her out the door and down the street.

“Max right now I need to be alone” Liz said as she started crying.

“Liz we need each other right now” Max said softly. Max could see how tired she was and how she had no life or energy left in her. Liz turned to face Max and she collapsed.Max caught her before she could hit the ground.

“Liz sweetie?” He said knowing she didn’t hear him. Max carried her to the car. He ran into the house and told everyone he would have to take Liz to the hospital.
 
Max waited in the hospital waiting room, it seemed like for an eternity. He couldn’t get over everything that had happened. The doctor came in and told him he could see Liz. Max walked into the hospital and saw Liz laying there crying. She wouldn’t even look at him.

“Hey” He said softly.  Liz turned and looked at him. She didn’t say anything. But the look she gave him said it all. Max sat at her bed side and held her hand.

“Max, what’s going to happen now?” Liz said softly.

“I don’t know” Max replied.

“Did you sleep with her?”

“No, every time we got close I knew it wasn’t right. I saw you, I heard you” Max said brushing her hair away from her face.

“So, it did work” Liz said softly.

“It did sweetie.” Max smiled

“At least our daughter is ok” Liz said softly.

“So you are..?” Max asked looking down at her stomach. Liz shook her head in reply. Max reached over and kissed her softly.

“Oh god Liz, I want to make this up to you. I want everything to be perfect again” Max said as he hugged her tightly.

“It will be Max.” Liz said softly.

“We have to start over, we have to forget everything that has happened the last few days” Max said with tears.

“I can’t if she is still here. There are some things that I think you should know, but maybe you really need to ask Tess about them. Ask her about the baby, the real truth about him.” Liz said

“Don’t worry I will take care of it. Get some rest babe” Max said kissing her head.
 
********************************
 
Jessica sat in Isabel's living room. Watching Isabel paced back and fourth in front of her like she was going crazy.

“Please stop pacing your making me nervous” Jessica said out loud.

“Sorry, but I can’t believe you knew Tess was in town this whole time! Did you also know that she impersonating Liz?” Isabel asked raising her voice.

“umm...kind of “ Jessica replied.

“Why didn’t you say anything earlier?” Isabel yelled.

“Because, I didn’t think anyone should have known! I didn’t want her coming after the rest of us. At first I didn’t even know that she was impersonating Liz” Jessica said in frustration.

“But, you knew she was here in town” Isabel said in anger.

“Iz , calm down can you do what we want you to do?” Michael asked.

“I don’t know Michael it will take a lot of power.” Jessica said looking at her brother.

“Just do it, and then we will figure out where to go from there” Michael said.

“Ok, wish me luck I've never had to do this before” Jessica said as she went into the back room and found Tess tied to a chair.
 
******************************

Max watched Liz sleep. He loved watching her sleep. She looked so peaceful and beautiful. Max brushed her hair away from her face.

“I'll be here if you need me” Max said softly as he leaned back in the chair and tried to get some sleep.
 
************************************
 
Jessica took a deep breath as she noticed Tess. She looked up at her and smiled.

“Wow, they send the pathetic little sister to do the dirty work” Tess laughed.

“Shutup” Jessica said.

“Attitude!” Tess said laughing.

“I just want to get this over with” Jessica said standing in front of her.

“Get what over with?” Tess asked curiously.

“I'm going to strip you of your powers” Jessica said as she waved her hand over Tess trying to get energy from her.

“I know all about you, and who you were on Antar” Jessica stopped and looked Tess in the eyes.

“What?” Jessica said trying to not loose her concentration.

“I know you were a little brat, but Michael loved you. I know that you hated me with a passion and that I was the worst thing in Max's life, because of those stupid visions you kept getting” Tess said

“I don’t know what you are talking about. I'm not going to let you distract me” Jessica as she started to use her powers on Tess again.

“You had a great love, he was your first love” Tess said

“Shutup Tess! You don’t know anything about me or my past life! I'm not going to let you distract me from what I have to do!” Jessica said pressing her hand onto Tess's shoulder. Shescreamed in pain, Jessica could feel Tess's powers Burning out of her. Suddenly, Jessica was hit with a force of energy and was thrown across the room.

“Damn!” Jessica said as she slowly got up rubbing her head.

“You Bitch!” Tess yelled as she tried to use her powers to untie the rope that was around her.

“That’s what you get for messing with us!” Jessica yelled. Tess just laughed at her.

“He was your love, and when he died in your arms you went crazy” Tess replied through her pain.

“No” Jessica said as she started getting flashbacks from the past.

“It’s all true” Tess said as Jessica left the room.

“Did it work?” Michael asked.

“Yeah it did” Jessica said looking down at her feet she could feel her eyes start to tear.

“So, what do we do with her now” Isabel asked.

“Well, I say lets give her to Liz.  She could beat her to a pulp like the bitch she is.Then we will puther on the next available spaceship and send her ass back to Antar!” Jessica yelled as she walked out and slammed the front door.
 
************************************** 

Liz woke up and found Max asleep in the chair. Liz knew that it was going to be hard on them. She knew that somehow they would get through it. They had to for their daughter’s sake. Liz touched her stomach.

“Everything will be ok” She said softly as she watched Max turn in the chair.  He woke up and smiled at Liz.

“How long have I been out” he asked.

“I don’t know” Liz tiredly said. Suddenly, Max's cell phone rang. He pulled it out of his pocket.

“Yeah” Max said rubbing his eyes.

“Its Michael, I think we have a plan on what to do with Tess” Michael said. Max looked over at Liz and then replied to Michael.

“What is it?” Max said hoping for good news.

“Jessica stripped her of her powers, and we are going to send her back to Antar” Michael said

“When?” Max whispered while watching Liz.

“When ever you are ready” Michael said.

“Ok, I'll be there in a bit” Max hung the phone up and quickly got up.

“Where are you going?” Liz asked.

“I'm taking care of the situation” Max said as he leaned over and kissed her on the cheek.

“Come back to me Max” Liz said suddenly scared of losing him.

“You know I will” Max said as he left the hospital room.

Max pushed Tess into the Granolith chamber. Tess laughed as she looked up at the granolith.
 
“I only have one question for you. Is he really my son? Because when I really think about it I can’t even remember that night. Did you warp me into believing that we had sex? Max said with disgust.
 
“I had too all’s you could think about is Liz. Even when I was trying to seduce you couldn’t get it up. So, I had to do what I had too. Funny you never really took a good look at him did you? Tess snaps.
 
“Why, you could have had a family with all of us and instead you chose to be evil and wicked. Now you have nothing. Max said with hatred.

“You were once a great king, now you are weak! She made you that way! God, so you arepathetic! Kyle was always a better man. To bad he didn’t know that the baby was his.” Tess yelled.

“Shut up! I can’t even believe that your here! I thought everything was perfect until you messed everything up again! That’s going to change now!” Max yelled.

“No it wont, Liz won’t ever forget this! She will pull away from you. I made sure of that.” Tess said gliding closer to Max. She was so close he could feel her breathing.

“You don’t want her, you want me” Tess said softly. Max pushed her away.

“I'm in love with Liz and I will always be in love with her! I gave her my soul before I even knew about me. I am married to her!” Max said

“Wewere married to Max! Did you forget?” Tess bit back.

“That was in the past, you are nothing to me now and will always be nothing! You know I think even then I really didn’t like you much” Max pushed the key in to the granolith. The granolith started up.

“Go!” Max said as Tess stood in front of the granolith.

“What if I don’t go” Tess asked.

“You either go or I will kill you myself” Max yelled

“You wouldn’t kill me”

“Want to make a bet?” Max said as he stood ready to do whatever he had to do.

“What makes you think I won’t come back” Tess said looking at Max

“Don’t worry, I'm making sure you don’t come back” Max said as Tess touched the granolith.

“Goodbye Max, don’t think this is the last time you see me” Tess said as she disappeared into the granolith.  Max watched her leave. 
 
*********************************
 
A week later -
 
Max and Liz were settled in their new home. Their parent’s had got some furniture and Liz had the electric and water running.  As Max was busy putting his clothes away in the proper places. He glanced over at Liz who hadn’t said a word to him all. He felt like she was pulling away from him. Shehadn’t talked all week and when they did it was only a sentence or two.

“Liz” Max said softly.

“Yeah” Liz replied.

“Is everything ok?” Max asked.

“Yeah, whywouldn’t it be?” Liz said smiling as she put new sheets on their bed.

“You seem distance and we barely talk. I Just want to make sure everything is ok” Max said carefully

“Max everything is fine, its just I have a lot on my mine that’s all and you know with our parents worried about us it’s just been crazy” Liz said sadly.

“Have you told them about the baby yet?” Max asked.

“No, but I will don’t worry” Liz said as she smiled at the thought of her parents being grandparents.

“My parents don’t know either Liz” Max said walking towards her.

“They don’t? I thought you told them” Liz said confused

“No, I haven’t had the chance yet” Max said talking her hand in his. Liz smiled softly as Max leaned in to kiss her. Liz pulled away and continued what she was doing.

“This is what I mean Liz” Max said walking away frustrated.

“What are you talking about?” Liz asked, knowing exactly what was going on.

“Every time we get close you pull away” Max said.

“I can’t help it Max. I saw everything, I saw you withTess. The way you kissed her and touched her was the way you touch me and kiss me” Liz said crying.

“I thought we talked about this Liz” Max said looking hurt

“We did, its just..I don’t know Max” Liz said sitting down on the bed.

“Liz I want us to be the way were before Tess ruined everything. I don’t want what her to win. This is what Tess wanted, for us to fall apart.I want us to be like the way it was before we were married.” Max said begging her to understand.

“I know I'm sorry” Liz said softly.

“I want you to be close to me” Max said touching her face and running his fingers through her long dark hair.

“Max..I” Max put his finger up to her mouth to keep her from talking.

“Don’t say anything, just kiss me” Max said as he leaned in and kissed her softly. Liz wrapped her arms around his neck and took in every part of Max. She loved the way he smelled and the way he touched her. She stopped suddenly.

“You know I just put clean sheets on the bed” Liz said laughing.

“Yeah,making love is always better with clean sheets on the bed” Max said laughing.

“We can’t do this not right now we have a lot of work to do Mr. Evans” Liz said as she got up and went downstairs.

“Come on! You are no fun! All work and no play is boring” Max said as he took a pillow and threw it at Liz before she left the room.

“Hey!” Liz said turning to him with a shocked face.

“We need to have some fun every once in a while” Max said as he picked the pillow up.

“Well,fun will just have to wait. Don’t you remember that our parents are coming over with more stuff” Liz said smiling

“Yeah, I know but that’s not to later” Max said backing Liz up to the door.

“You are being very bad Mr.Evans” Liz said as she kissed him.

“Now this is the Liz I know. I don’t want you to be distant from me” Max said kissing her neck with small kisses.

“I'll try not to” Liz said softly. They were getting caught up in the moment. They didn’t hear someone coming up the stairs. Liz stopped what she was doing when she heard Maria’s voice.

“Maria” Liz said.

“How did she get in?” Max asked surprised.

“I told her to walk right in when she got here” Maria knocked on the bedroom door.

“Are guys in here” Maria said opening the door.

“Hey” Max said softly.

“Sorry if I was interrupting something.” Maria said laughing.

“Oh, Maria you weren’t we were just putting stuff away” Liz said trying to hide what they were really doing.

“Yeah right sure ok, I was wondering If you knew where Michael was?” Maria asked.

Max shrugged his shoulders, and he had that look on his face that said he knew something. Maria put her hands on her hips and started tapping her foot.

“Max Evans, spill it” Maria said.

“Michael promised me not to tell you” Max said.

“Tell me what Max?” Maria asked.

“He's with Gwen” Max said quickly knowing that Liz was going to make him tell her.

“Doing what?” Maria asked as anger fueled inside of her.

“Gwen needed an opinion on something and so Michael is helping her. Are you jealous?” Max asked laughing.

“No, its just that I haven’t seen him in weeks. Yeah, well thanks Max” Maria as she left. Liz closed the bedroom door. Liz slapped Max in the shoulder.

“What the hell was that for?” Max asked rubbing his shoulder.

“Now,Maria is upset” Liz said as she went into the bathroom.

“Sorry” Max said grabbing Liz by the waist and startedkissing her.

“Max Evans this no time to be doing this” Liz said pushing him away as she continued to put things away. Liz felt something in her stomach. She touched her stomach.

“What?” Max said watching her closely.

“Nothing” Liz said touching her stomach. She wasn’t sure what she had just felt.She wasn’t sure if it was good thing or a bad thing.

“Are sure its nothing?” Max asked getting nervous.

“Yeah, I was just thinking about some thing” Liz said.

“About what?” Max asked getting worried

“Stuff Max, don’t worry about it.” Liz said smiling at him as she went over to him and pushed him towards the bed.

“Liz? What are you doing?” Max said as she pushed him on the bed.

“Having fun” Liz said as she laid next to him.

“Ok, I'm all for that” Max said as Liz got on top of him pinning him to the bed. She started kissing him softly.

“What if our parents come” Max asked out of breath.

“Don’t worry” Liz said kissing him again. She ran her hands through his hair. ”Now be a good boy and left up your arms.”

“God Liz” Max said gasping and out of breath.

“Max, do you see me? Do you love me?” Liz asked pulling his shirt off.
 
“You know I do” Max said pulling her shirt off.  Max wanted her more then anything in the world.

“I love you” Liz whispered as she kissed him. They were caught up in the moment with each other. It was like they were floating on air.  Max loved the sensation he wanted more. With every touch and kiss the sensation grew deeper and deeper.

“Max” Liz whispered and out of breath.

“Yes am I hurting you?” he asked caressing her skin.

“No, I Just...I want you now. Liz said standing up taking off her pants grabbing Max’s and ripping them off. Tell me your never going to leave me” Liz said as Max brushed her hair away from her face.

“You know I wont leave you Liz, you are my life, my soul my everything as Max plunged deep inside her. Oh, Liz I missed this so much.” Max said holding her a tight as he could. Both of them never knew that this green shield came up over them. They were oblivious to the world around them.
 
Liz could feel all the emotions that Max has for her. She felt his anguish that he had for the other Liz that was trying to get her into bed with him. She could feel her doubt melting away. That warm tingling was back. They both got a flash of their little girl growing in her womb.
 
**********************************
 
~Few hours later~
 
Max's parents knocked on the door at least ten times. No one answered.

“Their car is here” Mr. Philip Evans said.

“They should be here then” Dianne Evans said.
 
Liz was out of breath, she swore she heard knocking, but she wasn’t sure if it was real or not. She looked at Max knowing he might have heard it too.

“Wow did you see her? She is so beautiful. Umm, Max I think I hear someone at the door?” She said out of breath.

“No, ignore it” Max said kissing her. The knock got louder and then Max heard his parent’s voices outside.

“God it’s my parents” Max said as he quickly got up.

“I thought you told them to come at 4” Liz asked as she got up and quickly got dressed.

“I did but they are early” Max said as he threw some pants on a shirt.
 
Liz went downstairs first and answered the door. She opened the door and saw Max's parents there.

“Oh Hi!” She said knowing they were wondering why she didn’t answer the door.

“I thought you guys weren’t coming till 4”Liz asked curiously.

“Liz sweetie its 4:15” Mrs. Evans said she showed Liz her watch.

“Oh, well come in and I'll go get Max” Liz said running up stairs. Max came out of the room.

“Ok, this is weird. Its 4:15” Liz said softly so his parents didn’t hear.

“What? Last time I looked at the clock it said 2” Max said surprised

"Well, we must have been at it for while or time stopped in the process" Liz smiling at what she just said.

“Do you realize what you just said?” Max said laughing

“Yeah I do now” Liz said pulling Max downstairs. He was greeted at the stairs by his parents.

“What took you guys so long to answer the door” Phillip Evans asked.

“Oh, well were busy and didn’t hear you knocking” Liz said smiling at Max.

“Yeah, I bet you were” Dianne said smiling as she walked over to the couch.
 
***********************************
 
Maria went over to Michael's apartment. She got up to the apartment door and heard laughing inside. Then she heard Gwen’s voice in his apartment.

“God!” Maria said out loud as she listened to her laugh. She knocked on the door andMichael answered.

“Maria what are you doing here?” he asked curiously.

“I wanted to see you but I guess you are busy. I'll come back later” Maria started to walk away.

“Just to let you know Gwen and I are just friends. Nothing more” Michael said looking at Maria.

“Yeah right, you are just seeing her to make me jealous. I think its working. Thanks I really appreciate it” Maria said as she walked away to her car crying.
 
*********************************
 
Dianne watched Max and Liz closely as they sat on the couch together.

“So, I see you guys are getting everything ready in the house” Mrs. Evans said as she smiled at both of them. Max loved his mother dearly but right now he wished she wasn’t here.

“Yeah, mom thanks for everything we really appreciate it“ Max said glancing at Liz.

“Your welcome honey, now tell us how things are going?” she asked excitedly.

“Well, they are going good” Liz said. 'That’s a lie. Thing’s are going good except for the whole Tess thing. Oh I’m pregnant with Max’s baby ' Liz thought in the back of her mind. Her and Max had talked about it but it still lingered in her mind.

“I'm glad to hear that” Dianne said.

“So, where are your parents Liz? I thought they would be here by now?” Philip asked.

“Oh, I don’t know maybe they are busy at the Crashdown or something” Liz replied. Liz always felt nervous in front of Max's parents she didn’t really know why. Liz moved on the couch nervously. She felt something in her stomach again. Liz held her stomach.

Dianne looked her curiously.

“Liz, is there something wrong with your stomach?” She asked concerned.

“Oh, no why?” Liz asked innocently.

“You are holding your stomach, you are not....pregnant are you?”  Dianne asked sitting on the edge of her chair with excitement.

“Umm”Liz said as she looked at Max and smiled.

“Mom, dad Liz is having a baby” Max said.

“Oh god honey,that’s great!” Dianne said as she hugged her son tightly and then hugged Liz.
 
Several Hours later -
 
Max's parents finally left and Liz and Max were alone again. Liz paced the kitchen floor as Max was taking a shower upstairs. She kept thinking about Tess. It was on her mind twenty four seven.  She wondered if Tess had done something to her child. Liz touched her stomach she felt this calming sensation come over her.

“Wow, you do have some great power” She whispered as she started craving food.  Max came into the kitchen and smiled at her.

“Are you hungry?” Max asked.

“Starving” Liz said softly.

“So, how about I go down to the Crashdown and get some food” Max said quickly

“That would be great” Liz said softly as Max kissed her on the cheek.
 
Liz laid on the couch thinking. She didn’t realize that she was falling asleep on the couch.
 
*******************************
 
Max walked into the Crashdown and found Liz's father serving drinks and things.

“Busy are we?” Max replied to Mr. Parker.

“Yeah, we've been busy all day” he replied tiredly.

“I just came by to get some food for Liz” Max said quickly.
 
**************************
 ~About an hour later~
 
Liz was dreaming, she found herself in that room again. Tess was standing in front of her. She slowly pressed her hand on Liz's stomach. Liz screamed and jumped off the couch into Max's arms.

“Liz?” Max said holding her.

“God, oh god” Liz said hugging Max tightly. Liz lefts up her shirt to make sure there was no mark, because it felt so real.

“What’s wrong sweetie?” Max asked setting the bag of food down on the floor. Liz started crying.

“Nothing it was just a bad dream” Liz felt the calming sensation come over her again. She let go of Max and looked into his eyes.

“Don’t leave me” She said softly.

“I told you I wouldn’t” Max said as Liz leaned in and kissed him.

“I know it’s just that I think this pregnancy is making me have all these emotions” Liz said as she wiped the tears from her eyes.

“It’s ok Liz, if there is anything you need to talk about please let me know” Max said as he held her hand.

“Ok” Liz reached down and grabbed the bag of food and pulled out a thing of fries. She popped a fry in Max's mouth.

“Very good” Max said chewing.

“My dad knows how to make the best fries” Liz replied as she popped one in her mouth.

“He does” Max said as he put another fry in Liz's mouth.

“You do realize this is our first meal in our home and I didn’t even cook it” Liz said as she took a bite of the cheese burger.
 
“This cheeseburger is missing something.” Liz said looking around. She watched Max pour Tobacco sauce on his burger.
 
“That’s it” She screams making Max jump. “Hand it over sweetie please I would like to try that.”
 
“But Liz you never like the stuff before. Max said arguing.
 
“Max you should know better then to ague with me now please I think that is what I’m craving. Liz said with a pout.
 
“Ok, you are right here.” Max said handing it over laughing. He was silently hoping that her hormones won’t get to bad.
 
“Well, tomorrow we will go shopping and you can cook me dinner” Max said caressing her arm with his thumb.

“Ok, sounds like plan. Butright now you know what I really want?” Liz said smiling as she put her cheeseburger down.

“And what would that be?” Max asked curiously.

“You” Liz said as she climbed into Max's lap and started kissing him.

“Well, I can give what you want” Max said kissing her back and smiling. Liz started getting flashes, of Max and moments in his life. She could feel everything he was feeling. He was nervous about being a father, she could feel it. Liz laughed as she felt what he was feeling.

“What’s so funny?” Max asked.

“Nothing, you are so cute” Liz said smiling.

“Am I?” Max asked looking at her funny

“Yes you are, I like how you are nervous about being a father” Liz said smiling at him.

“How do you know I am nervous?” Max asked looking at her.

“Just a guess” Max kissed her again. Just as they were getting caught up in the moment, Liz heard someone knocking on the door.

“Just ignore it” Max said grabbing her attention back by kissing her.

“I can’t” Liz said as the knocking continued. She got up and went to the door and found Maria crying.

“Maria, what is wrong?” Liz said curiously pulling her into a hug.

“Liz can we talk please” Maria said as she walked in.

“Yeah sure” Liz said.

“What’s going on?” Max asked Maria noticing she was crying.

“Michael” Maria said softly.

“Ok, well I'll let you two talk” Max said as he planted a kiss on Liz and went up stairs.

“Liz I don’t know what to do? I mean I want Michael more then anything, but he's never there for me when I need him” Maria said as she wiped her eyes.

“I know Maria, maybe you should talk to him and work things out with him” Liz said softly trying to get her to understand.

“I've tried” Maria said.

“Well, then maybe you need someone different in your life” Liz said quietly. To show him what he is missing.

“Maybe, but Liz I am in love with Michael” Maria said softly.

“Then you have to fight for him? Maria you need to make up your mind what you want to do.” Liz said.

“Umm I think you are right. I have to show he just how great I am. If that doesn’t work then I have to get Gwen off his back” Maria said laughing.

“Maria don’t beat yourself up. Michael will come around” Liz said hugging her.

“I want what you and Max have” Maria said.

“Talk to Michael”

“Ok, if you insist” Maria said as she started to leave. Liz finally got Maria to leave. She went up stairs and found Max laying on the bed.

“You know, people do like to interrupt us and its becoming a habit” Liz said as she laid next to her husband on the bed.

“I know” He said as he leaned over for a kiss.

“So I was hoping that we won’t get interrupted this time” Liz said as she smiled at her husband.

“So, we are having a daughter” Max said as he placed his hand on Liz's stomach.

“Yeah we are, we need to come up with a name” Liz said as Max brushed her hair away from her face. Max's cell phone started ringing. Max quickly picked it up off the dresser and answered.

“Hello” he said.

“Max this is Liz's mom, can I speak to my daughter please” Nancy Parker said into the phone.

“Sure, it’s your mother” Max handed the phone to her.

“Mom what’s up?” Liz said.

“Why didn’t you tell me? You told Max's parents before you told us!” She screamed into the phone.

“Mom calm down, I'm sorry...I” Liz started to panic.

“Lizzie! I happy that you are pregnant! I'm just upset that you didn’t tell me or your father” She said quickly

“Sorry, It’s just that..They were here and It was the right time to tell them” Liz cried looking at Max.

“Ok, Lizzie,sorry I yelled at you. But it’s just overwhelming. We are going to be grandparents!” She said excitedly into the phone.

“Yeah, Mom can we talk about this tomorrow” Liz said looking at Max like he was her last meal.

“Sure, you and Max need to come have breakfast with us so we can talk about this”Nancy said quickly hoping to get a yes for an answer.

“Ok we will, bright and earlier, bye mom” Liz hung up the phone and threw it at Max

“What was that all about?” Max asked looking worried.

“Apparently news has spread, your parents told my parents. We have to have breakfast with them tomorrow” Liz said walking over to the bed.

“Great, what are we going to tell them when our child is born. Oh by the way our grandchild is part alien” Max said looking up at Liz as she punched him in the shoulder playfully.

“Max,don’t talk like that!” Liz said straddling Max on the bed.

“Hey,it’s true” Max said hitting her with a pillow.

“We will worry about that when the time comes” Liz said smiling as she leaned in to kiss Max.
 
*************************************
 
Adam Parker looked up at the flying spaceship sticking out of the building. 'God they still own this place?' Adam thought as he entered the Crashdown. Jeff Parker was busy cleaning tables when he looked up and saw Adam coming through the door.

“No, it can’t be?” Jeff said coming towards him.

“Yeah, it is I'm afraid to say” Adam said putting his stuff on one of the tables.

“Adam, what the hell are you doing here? Last time I heard you were in New York” Jeff said hugging him.

“Yeah, well that really didn’t work out for me” Adam said.

“So, how long you here for?” Jeff asked. Adam smiled and Jeff knew he was here to stay permanently.

“I was hoping you could take me in” Adam said.

“Family is always welcome” Jeff said patting him on the back.

“So, where is sweet little Ms Liz at” Adam asked.

“Didn’t you hear?” Jeff asked.

“Hear what?” Adam asked.

“Liz got married” Jeff said. Adam looked at him shocked.

“You are joking right? You let your little angel get married?” Adam said laughing.

“Yeah, I did” Jeff said happily.

“Wow, I can’t wait to see her” Adam said.

“Yeah, not only that but we are getting our first grandchild too, can you believe that. Jeff said excitedly

“Oh my god, Liz Parker pregnant?! I could never imagine”

“Well believe it. Here I'll give you her address and you can swing by and see her” Jeff said handing him the address.

“Ok, that would be great” Adam sad happy to be seeing Liz and meeting her husband for the first time.
 
 “She is going to be surprised to see you Adam”

“I know she will” Jeff said. Maria came into the Crashdown and sawAdam. Her eyes widen with surprise.

“Adam Parker! Oh my god!” Maria said practically jumping into his arms.

“Let me guess Maria Deluca?” Adam said smiling at her.

“Adam Parker I haven’t seen you in ages!” Maria said giggling.

“Yeah, I'm going to be staying here for a while. So, I have a lot of catching up to do don’t I” Adam said laughing.

“Yes you do, Liz is married now”

“So, I heard” Adam said grabbing his stuff.

“Well, we have to rush you over to her house she is going to be happy to see you” Maria taking his arm and rushing him out of the Crashdown towards her car.

“Maria wait a minute” Adam stopped her quickly

“What?  Oh god, don’t tell me you are in some kind of trouble and that’s why your back here in Roswell is it?” Maria said with her hands on her hip while tapping her foot.

“Well, Umm you can say that” Adam said with a smirk.

“Don’t tell me I don’t want to know! Maria said as Adam got in the passengers seat. Adam knew he had to tell everyone why he was back in Roswell. He lost his job in New York; his parent’swouldn’t give him any money for school.He had no place to go. His parentsdon’t even know he's back in Roswell. 'Its not like they would care anyways' Adam thought.
 
Then there was the whole incident with his ex girlfriend who threatened to beat the crap out of him. 'God nothing is going right at least I still have my art ' Adam thought.

“So, are you ready to hear why I am back in Roswell?” Adam asked Maria as they were driving.

“No not really” Maria suddenly had a brain storm. A little light bulb popped into her head.

“What?” Adam looked at her curiously.

“I'll make a deal with you” Maria said while rubbing her hands.

“A deal?” Adam said wondering if he should be scared.

“Yeah a deal” Maria sad with a twinkle in her eye.

“What kind of deal?” Adam said laughing.

“Well, if you help me get back together with my jackass boyfriend I'll listen to your story and I wont tell Liz why your really here” Maria quickly got out.

“Deal” Adam said smiling.

*~ Eight~*




Liz decided to jump into the shower. Max heard the water running. He felt like jumping in the shower with her. He heard someone knocking on the door. He went down stairs and saw Maria with someone at the door.


“Maria” Max said as she walked in with Adam.


“Hey Max, this is Adam Parker” Maria said as they shook hands.


“Adam Parker?” Max asked curiously.


“I'm Liz's cousin, let me guess she never told you about me did she?” Adam said smiling at the look on Max’s face.


“Actually, no she didn’t. Um, let me go get her” Max ran up stairs and found Liz coming out of the shower. When he saw her he still couldn’t believe that he married the woman of his dreams. Seeing her wet standing in just a towel made him wish that they were alone right this moment.


“Liz, Maria is here with your cousin Adam” Max said seeing the look of surprise on her face.


“What? Adam? No!” Liz said as she quickly got dressed and ran down stairs.


“Hey, Lizzie!” Adam said as she ran down the stairs.


“Adam! What are you doing here?” Liz said hugging him tightly.


“Well, I have some free time so I thought I would come here to visit. It looks your all grown up now Lizzie” Adam said smiling.


“Yeah, did you meet Max my husband” Liz said quickly.


”Nice to meet you Max” Adam said with a huge grin on his face. Knowing that Liz was happier then he ever saw her. He has happy that she found someone to make her smile like that. Now, he only wished that he could be so happy.


“I can’t believe you are here!” Liz said jumping up and down.


“Believe it” Adam said throwing his hands up in the air.



*********************************



Michael couldn’t help but think about Maria. Jessica watched him trying to keep his mind off Maria.


“Just go talk to her something you are driving me insane!” Jessica said as she plopped down on the couch.


“Jessica, stay out of it” Michael said.


“She wants to get back with you. You two were meant for each other” Jessica sipping on some Snapple tea.


“I'm doing what you suggested and now you want me to get back with her?” Michael said shaking his head in disbelief. ‘I wish women wouldn’t be so hard to read’ he thought


“I didn’t think you would do what I said. I kind of like Gwen better then Maria anyways. She isn’t has annoying. She is sometimes clumsy though.” Jessica said laughing remembering just how bad Gwen is.



“We all know you hate Maria” Michael replied looking at her trying to figure out just why they are always at each others throats.

.
“You and Maria love each other, but it’s like you know the 'we belong to each other and can’t be together ' thing. I say get over it and get back together!” Jessica said trying to see if Michael gets what she is trying to say.


“I want Maria so bad” Michael said as he sat on the couch.


“I know you do, so go get her back. Do something that will wow her. Or maybe she will do something that will wow you. Either way you will be together” Jessica said smiling trying to get him to cheer up.


“That could work” Michael said thinking of what he could do to Wow her.


“Or just keep making her jealous and she will eventually come back to you” Jessica said know that it must be eating Maria up while she sees them together.


“Thanks for the advice” Michael said sweetly.


“What are sisters for” Jessica as she hugged Michael and quickly got up.


“Where are you going?” Michael asked.


“I think I am going to get a burger” Jessica as she headed out the door.



When she got to the Crashdown she saw Kyle sitting in the back booth eating a burger. Jessica went up to him and smiled.


“Where is your hot date?” Jessica said sitting across from in the booth.


“I'm assuming your Michael's sister?” Kyle said while eyeing her up and down.


“Bingo!” Jessica said.


“What are you doing here?” Kyle asked looking around for the other “Aliens” to pop up any moment now.


“Sitting with a guy who looks like he needs company” Jessica said stealing a fry off his plate.


“I love your attempt at humor. You are nothing like Michael” Kyle said smiling.


“Hey! That’s an insult buddy. In many ways I am just like spaceboy.” Jessica said sounding hurt.


“Yeah, you look a little like him” Kyle said.


“So, what’s your story Kyle Valenti?” Jessica asked trying not to be to obvious.


“My story?” Kyle said shocked. ‘hummm, I wonder if she is trying to hit on me like a piece of meat’ him thought smiling.


“Yeah, your stories, your life the stuff that makes you tick. I know bits and pieces. You dated Liz; Liz broke up with because she was in love with Max. I know all that crap. Is there anything else I need to know” Jessica smiling grabbing another French Fry and popping it in her mouth.


“No, not really” Kyle said thinking.


“Ohhh ok, I see your not going to tell me about the girl you met the other day” Jessica said see if she could crack him.


“What?” Kyle said looking at her curiously.


“The girl, you are thinking about her right now” Jessica said know very well it must be a girl that he is thinking about.


“How do you know about her?” Kyle asked shocked.


“You know I am an alien. I have ways, so tell me about her” Jessica said wiggling her fingers at him.


“There is nothing to tell” Kyle said as he poured ketchup onto his plate.


“Oh, but there is Kyle Valenti” Jessica liked playing around with Kyle. When she looked at Kyle it made her want to get to know him better for some unknown reason.


“Stop messing with me ok!” Kyle said practically yelling.


“Fine, I was just having fun with you. I want to have some fun, Michael is boring all he thinks about is Maria” Jessica said while pouting.


“Yeah, maybe it’s because he is in love with her or something” Kyle said sarcastically.


“Oh yeah, he definitely is.” Jessica said laughing.


“You don’t have a special someone?” Kyle asked surprised.


“Nope and don’t intend to. Because, alien and human relations make things even more complicated” Jessica said trying to convince herself.


“Yeah right, it made things complicated for Max and Liz, with the whole Tess thing” Kyle said wishing that maybe she would reconsider.


“Don’t even mention that bitch’s name! God! She was so annoying!” Jessica said with anger.


“Sorry I brought it up” Kyle said seeing the flash of anger in her eyes.


“I kind of like you Kyle” Jessica said smiling trying to get a hold of her anger. Knowing very well that Kyle has feelings for her, maybe its time for her to remember what if feels like to be loved.


“Really, little old me?” Kyle said smiling hope that she wasn’t just playing with him.


“Yeah, I like reading your emotions. You are very funny” Jessica said winking as she got up.


“What?” Kyle said confused.


“Nothing Kyle” Jessica said as she went to the counter to order something. Sometimes Jessica liked playing with guy’s heads, especially human guys. Suddenly, Jessica was hit with flash back. She saw herself in a neon iridescent white gown. Some one came walking up towards her. She knew who it was; she could sense him from a mile away. Jessica turned and looked at the young man and smiled.



“Beautiful Luria” He whispered softly, as he took her hand in his.


“We can’t do this” She whispered softly.


“What’s stopping us” He said as he leaned in to kiss her.



Jessica was pulled back to reality. She couldn’t shake what she was feeling. There was so much she didn’t know, and so much she didn’t want to know. Was what Tess said true? Jessica blew the feeling off and noticed Kyle coming up to her.


“You said you liked me” Kyle replied.


“As a person and a possible friend and no I don’t want to date you” Jessica said flat out still shaken from what she just saw.


“Ouch that hurt” Kyle said in pain while holding his heart with his hands.


“Kyle there is someone out there waiting for you and sure as hell not me” Jessica said patting him on the shoulder and smiling.



**********************************




Gwen and Michael sat on the couch in Michael's apartment quietly. Michael seemed nice. Gwen thought while she sipped on the Snapple that Michael gave her.


“So, tell me why Roswell?” Michael asked, wanting Gwen to give a little more information about herself.


“Well..I always thought Roswell was a mystery with the whole alien thing” Gwen said laughing.


“Do you believe in aliens?” Michael asked curiously.


“When I see one then I will believe. Look I better go I have a lot to do tomorrow” Gwen said as she headed for the door.


“Come back tomorrow” Michael said softly not sure if he wants to be around her so much.


“Sure” Gwen said as she said goodbye and Left.



Gwen went to her apartment. She plopped down on her couch and smiled. She was actually happy for once. She hasn’t been this happy in a long time. The last she remembered smiling was before her mother died.



***************************



Liz pulled Adam by the arm into the back of the house. Adam knew she wanted answers.


“Spill it now” Liz said in a demanding tone.


“What?” Adam asked acting like he didn’t know what she was talking about.


“Don’t play dumb Adam, I know you are hiding something, why else would you come back to Roswell” Liz said standing there with her arms cross in front of her chest.


“I came for a visit Lizzie, I had some time off so I thought I would come and visit everyone. You don’t believe me do you?” Adam said hurt knowing that he can never hide anything from Liz.


”No I don’t” Liz said getting mad that Adam was lying to her.


“Fine, I'll Leave” Adam said as he grabbed his things and headed out the door.


“What did you say to him Liz?” Maria asked.


“Nothing, I know he is here for a reason. When he left Roswell he said he was never coming back. Now suddenly after several years he's back in Roswell. I mean things are crazy now! I can’t deal with him and his lies. Plus, this Tess thing and everything in between, I can’t do it!” Liz yelled as she ran up stairs.


“Where did that come from?” Maria asked Max shocked that Liz was freaking out at her cousin.


“I don’t know” Max said as he ran up stairs after Liz. Max found Liz in the bathroom sitting on the edge of the tube.


“Hey” he said softly as he opened the door.


“I don’t want to talk about it.” Liz said sitting there pouting.


“We have to talk, what’s really bothering you” Max asked her tenderly.


“Nothing, I'm just tired” Liz said hoping that he would just drop it.


“Liz you are not going to get out of it that easily. Tell me please so we can work this out” Max said as he reached out and pulled her into a hug.


“It’s everything Max. I still see her in my dreams; I see her trying to hurt the baby. Then Adam comes along and everything is chaotic” Liz said as her breaks downs crying.


“You still see Tess in your dreams?” Max said getting mad that she never said anything sooner.


“Yes! Max haven’t you been listening!” Liz said crying harder.



“I’m scared for our baby. It’s like she is trying to hurt her. How am I supposed to stop her? I’m so scared that she will do something to her.” Liz said while her cried holding on to Max.



“Honey, you should have told me right away about this. How am I supposed to help you if I don’t know? I will protect you with everything I have no matter what. You and our baby means everything to me don’t for get that.” Max said while rubbing her back. Max picks Liz up and walked her to the bed laying her down.



“You have to know that all of us will never let anyone hurt you are the baby you are my life. I would be nothing with out you.” Max said laying down next to her holding her. Soon he felt Liz relax and her breathing start to get deep and even. He knew that she has finally fallen asleep. Max knew that is was going to be a long night because he was going to let any bad dreams come to her tonight.



He reaches for his phone and dialed Isabel house he just might need her help tonight if Liz get a night mare. He needs to know where and how she is getting them.





*******************************





Adam threw his stuff in the back of Maria's car.



“Adam, she is just a little stressed out from everything that has happened these past few weeks” Maria said with a sad look on her face.


“Really” Adam said looking at her hurt.


“Really, and I think it’s time you tell me your story” Maria said hoping to get the truth out of him.


“Ok fine, I have no money my girlfriend back in New York stole every signal cent had. She kicked me out of the apartment, NYU wouldn’t accept me. My parents sent me enough money to get here, I have nothing Maria. Nothing at all because I made the stupid mistake of falling for the wrong girl who I thought by the way loved me. She happened to be a con-artist, can you believe that I fell for it?” Adam said getting angry that he was so stupid for not noticing before.


“Wow! You've had it bad” Maria said giving him a hug.


“Yeah, I know and my dream was to go to NYU” Adam said sadly.


“I know it was, everything will work out” Maria said trying to get him to see that there is always light on at the end of the tunnel.



***************************



“Isabel I need you help tonight” Max said



“What is it Max you know that I’m here for you.” Isabel said wonder what got Max all worried about.



“Liz is getting nightmares from Tess, or maybe she is just dreaming about her but it has her all worried. She thinks that Tess is trying to hurt the baby. I need you to dreamwalk her, for me and see if you see anything.” Max said quietly.



“Sure no problem, Is she sleeping right now? Isabel asked.



“Yup, Liz just fell asleep. Max said while rubbing her tummy. Suddenly he had a flash. He saw a little girl with beautiful curly dark hair. He saw that she had his eyes and Liz’s beautiful color hair. Max felt so much love for her already it just broke his heart thinking that he almost lost them both to Tess.



****************



Back at Isabel house she was getting herself ready to dreamwalk Liz. She wanted to know if there was anyway that Tess and her Psycho ness have hurt Liz or her baby in any way.



Isabel closed her eyes “Please Liz let me in” Isabel whispered.



Isabel could feel that pull into Liz dream plain. She can see Liz happily rubbing her pregnant tummy. Liz looked so happy and proud.



Next she sees Liz in the kitchen at her house. She grabs her tummy that is very pregnant and screams in pain as she sees Tess and someone else that she doesn’t know. She hears Tess yell at Liz telling her that she is there to take what is rightfully her. Max’s baby was supposed to be her not Liz’s.



The man that is with Tess is laughing at the whole situation. Isabel can feel the fear in their baby. The baby is crying out in pain knowing that her mommy is getting hurt.



Their baby is scared of the mean lady that is hurting her mommy. She puts up a shield that blasts Tess on her butt. “You bitch I’m coming for her and you. Just wait Liz when you least expect it I will get you and kill you.”



Isabel gets push out the dream she sits up screaming.



I have to call Max and tell him what I saw, because his baby is very strong and we have to be on the look out for crazy bitch and who ever is with her.



Isabel reaches over and sees her hand shaking. She really can’t believe what she just saw there but it scares the shit out of her. She dials Max number quickly.



“Max please answer.” She says quietly.

The next morning -



Michael walks into the Crashdown and sees Maria with Adam. His heart skipped a beat. Maria looked so happy laughing with him. Michael went up to their table.


“Hey can we talk” Michael said looking over at Adam.


“About?” Maria asked impatiently.


“Can we talk in private? Please” Michael Begged.


“Sure, be right back Adam” Maria said as Michael pulled Maria by the arm to the back of the Crashdown.


“What is your problem!” Maria yelled as she yanked Michael's hand off her.


“Maria I...” Michael mumbled, as he pulled Maria into his arms and started kissing her. Maria missed kissing him. She wished that he wouldn’t stop. ‘Wait I’m mad at him’ Maria quickly remembered. She jumped back and punched him in the shoulder.


“Ouch!” Michael said grabbing his shoulder.


“Don’t ever do that again!” Maria yelled wiping her lips.


“Maria, I miss you” Michael said rubbing his shoulder in pain.


“You don’t miss me! If you did you wouldn’t be dating another girl!” Maria said in a huff while rolling her eyes.


“Gwen and I are just friends!” Michael yelled pointing at her.


“Yeah, sure whatever you say Michael!” Maria said frowning. She went back out into the Crashdown dinning room to the table where Adam was sitting.


“Is that him?” Adam asked laughing.


“Yes, that’s the ever so lovely “Jackass of boyfriend” I can’t seem to get away from. Maria said sarcastically. Adam laughed; he found it very funny that Maria would fall for guy like Michael Guerin. Maria looked up and saw Jessica coming through the door.


“Great, here she comes, the devil incarnate sister” Maria said smiling at Jessica.


“So Maria, we need to talk” Jessica said quietly.


“Wonderful, first Michael now you” Maria said sarcastically.


“It’s something I can’t talk to Michael or anyone else about” Jessica said sadly.


“Ok can we talk about it later” Maria said glancing over at Adam. Jessica glanced at Adam and smiled.


“Oh, I see your busy making spaceboy jealous” Jesssica said laughing.


“No, I'm not at the moment. This is a friend of mine Adam Parker” Maria said innocently.


“Ohh, Adam Parker, Liz's cousin” Jessica replied.


“How did you know that?” Maria asked confused.


“I have ways” Jessica said smiling. She sensed something weird from Adam. Something she couldn’t put her finger on it. He was giving off this vibe, strange vibe. Jessica squeezed in the booth next to Maria. She wanted to know more about Adam. She was getting this weird energy from him.


“So, Adam Parker huh, tell me a little about yourself” Jessica said smiling.


“Well, what do you want to know?” Adam asked cautiously.


“Do you believe in aliens?” Jessica asked abruptly. Maria kicked Jessica in the leg under the table giving her the evil eye.


“Ouch! What the hell was that for?!” Jessica yelled in pain reaching down grabbing her leg. “Crazy much Maria? Jessica snapped looking at Maria sharply.


“What?” Maria said innocently acting like she didn’t know what happened.


“To answer your question, I would say that aliens are out there among us and I have yet to meet one” Adam said looking at the girls curiously.


“That’s funny, ok what would you do if you actually met one” Maria asked giving Jessica that look.


“Well, it really depends on the situation. So, I don’t really know” Adam said laughing.


“You are in trouble aren’t you?” Jessica said out loud looking at Adam.


“What?” Adam said quickly.


“Don’t listen to her she is crazy” Maria said trying to get Jessica to stop.




“You are in trouble with someone, there is something else you are not telling” Jessica said while tapping her chin.


“I have no idea what you’re talking about” Adam said slamming his fist on the table shaking it.


“It has to do with money” Jessica said looking at him funny.


“Jessica! Shutup! I think it’s time for you to leave” Maria yelled trying to grab Jessica arm.


“No, I am just getting started! This is Fun! Your girlfriend in New York she dumped you.” Jessica kept getting all these interesting flashes.


“Where is this coming from?” Adam asked curiously looking at Jessica strangely.


“Jessica is insane just like her brother” Maria said sarcastically giving her that evil look to quit it.


“Ok, I'm done, your secret is safe with me” Jessica said patting him on the back as she left.


“Excuse me” Maria said as she followed Jessica out the door.


“What the hell was that all about?!” Maria asked her furiously.


“It was me having fun with the guy’s head. It’s interesting reading his thoughts” Jessica said laughing.


“How the hell did you know all that?” Maria asked.


“I saw stuff; I get these visions from time to time. Michael doesn’t know I get them, and I want it to stay that way” Jessica said pointing at Maria.


“Ohh, so there is stuff your hiding from us now” Maria said with her hand on her hips tapping her foot quickly on the ground. ‘Just wait until I tell your sweet brother you are keep stuff from him.’ She thought.


“You know what Maria, I heard that. You are really starting to bug me.” Jessica said as she continued to walk down the street.


“Ok, so tell me what’s going on and I promise I won’t tell Michael or anyone else” Maria said excitedly.


“How can I trust you with the big mouth you have” Jessica asked.



***************************



Liz woke up and found Max gone. She rolled over and found a note on the pillow.



Went out be back soon
Love always



Liz smiled and rolled back over on her other side. She touched her stomach. “I can’t wait till you are born” she said softly. A warm calming sensation came over her. Liz knew her daughter was powerful and they have an unbelievable connection. After all they have been through she was surprised she was still pregnant.


“No will ever hurt you again” Liz said softly. Liz had a strange feeling that she would be permanently linked to their child. I wonder if Max can feel this connection too.



*******************************


“You can trust me Jessica” Maria said.


“No I can’t!” Jessica yelled as she walked away.


Jessica went back to Michael's apartment. She needed to clear her head. The flashes she was getting were making her crazy. They were alien flashes she was sure of that. They weren’t flashes from any one else she came in contact with. She kept seeing herself holding her former lover in her arms. He was dying she could feel it. Blood soaked her beautiful dress.


“Don’t go please” She pleaded.



The pain was so upsetting, Jessica ended up blowing up the build outside light.


“God!” Jessica screamed. She knew it had to do with her past. This was first time she ever remembered anything from her past.


“What does this mean!” Jessica screamed at the top of her lungs. There was a knock on the apartment door, Jessica looked up and went to answer it.


“Max?” She said.


“Hey, I came to ask you a favor” Max said.


“Nope, sorry no favors today, not in a favor mood” Jessica said as Max walked in.


“Please” Max said softly.


“Depends on the favor” Jessica said.


“I need you to connect with Liz. I need to know something” Max said quickly while scratching his neck.


“Like what? To see whether your child is fully human, part alien, full alien. Well, you see I already know the answer to that?” Jessica said quietly.


“Tell me then” Max said grabbing her arm.


“She is going to have great power Max. Her alien side is going to be more dominate then the human side. But, believe me she will be human with alien traits, somewhat like you” Jessica said patting Max’s hand in a reassuring way. Max felt relieved.


“There is more I want to know” Max said to her.


“What else could you possibly want to know?” Jessica asked.


“Will she has a destiny like the four us have?” Max asked hoping to god that she could live a half way normal life.


“That I can’t tell you even if I connect with the baby. Stop worrying, you are going to be a great father.” Jessica said smiling.


“Thanks” Max said softly.


“Liz is waiting for you. You guys have been really close lately haven’t you?” Jessica asked making sure that they are doing well.


“Yeah we have, I'm glad I have Liz back”


“It isn’t far from over Max.” Jessica said hoping that he would understand.


“What makes you say that?” Max asked curiously.


“Because it’s too quiet something is bound to happen sooner or later” Jessica said quickly.



“Max just keep an eye out and watch Liz closely. She is more important now then you ever know. Now, go back to your wife. I’m staving and I’m going back to the Crashdown to get something to eat. Jessica said while walking out the door with Max.



*******************************



Liz got up and started to get dressed. She took a piece of paper and a pen and started writing down names. She needed a good strong name for her daughter. Liz had at least 10 names listed. Liz heard the door open. She looked over and saw Max.


“What are you doing?” Max asked as he came into the living room giving Liz a great big kiss.


“Thinking of names” Liz said smiling.


“Ohh, well our daughter does need a name.” Max said cuddling up next to Liz on the couch.


“How about Candice?” Liz asked


“No I don’t like that name” Max replied


“Ok, how about Rachel” Liz said.


“That sounds nice” Max said kissing her shoulder. Liz took in the scent of Max. Max had this scent that always took her off her feet.
“I can’t think when you are doing that” She said as Max started kissing her neck.


“Well then don’t think” Max replied.


“We have to pick a name for our baby” Liz said turning towards him. Max wanted Liz's attention. He slowly started playing with her hair.


“Liz “Max whispered softly.


“Yes” Liz said taking her hand in his.


“I am so happy right now” Max said softly.


“I am too” Liz said as she leaned in and kissed him. Suddenly, Liz felt a sharp pain in her stomach. She held her stomach tightly.


“Liz?” Max said noticing she was in pain.


“I'm fine Max it’s nothing just a cramp or something” Liz said feeling the pain subside.


“Are you sure?” Max asked holding her.


“Yeah, now finish what you started.” Liz said quickly.



************************************



Jessica watched Adam closely as he ate breakfast in the Crashdown. Adam saw her staring at him. He went over to her table with his plate of food and sat across from her.


“I find you very odd.” He said as he took a bit of his pancake.


“Why is that because I know so much about you and never met you?” Jessica said as she sipped on her orange juice that had Tabasco sauce in it.


“Exactly do you have some kind power or something?” Adam said intrigued by Jessica.


“You can say that.” Jessica said smiling.


“Ok, so what ever you know about me keep it to yourself. Because if Liz ever finds out she will have my head I know she will freak. She will send me packing. And I really don’t want that” Adam said.


“Sure whatever” Jessica said laughing just think about Adam being scared of little Liz.


“So with that settled are you seeing anyone?” Adam asked smiling. Jessica laughed and nearly spit her juice out all over him.


“No! And no I am so not dating you!” Jessica said between coughs.


“Why not?” Adam asked with his hands his chest acting like he is hurt.


“Because I said” Jessica said sarcastically.


“That’s not an answer” Adam said laughing.


“Well, its mine so why don’t you buzz off and leave me alone” Jessica said trying to get him to leave.


“Attitude much! That’s what I like about you are a mystery” Adam said smiling.


“And you like girls that are mysterious and you have to figure out what there all about” Jessica said getting angry.


“That’s my kind of girl” Adam said give attitude right back trying to get her to loosen up a bit.


“Well, sorry to disappoint you but, I'm not what your looking for” Jessica said sadly.


“Are you sure?” Adam asked as he popped a piece of bacon in his mouth.


“I'm sure” Jessica said.


“Ok fine” Adam said as he went back to his table.



Jessica went back to eating her food when she heard this faint whisper. It sounded like a little girl crying.


“Jessie!” Jessica listened and heard that sweet little voice again. It was like a soft whispering wind.


“Jessie!” the little girl kept saying. Then suddenly Jessica saw a flash of Liz holding a little girl.



“Holy Shit….What the fuck is that.” Jessica screams startling Adam. Adam saw Jessica get up quickly grabbing her head in pain. Jessica gets up quickly knocking the table over spilling everything on the floor.



“Jessica, what is the matter?” Adam said quickly rushing over to Jessica on the ground. He watched as she laid there holding her head crying in pain. It looked like she was in a daze not answering to anything……





****************************





Liz's mind drifted off for a bit while she was laying in bed. Max was taking a shower. Liz started daydreaming. She saw herself laying across the bed rubbing her tummy. She was happy that her daughter was going to arrive soon. She looked over and saw Max sleeping with one hand on her stomach trying to get as close as he could.



Liz was enjoying her quite time with her soon to be bigger family. This was exactly what she always dreamed of. Suddenly there was this big flash of light and Tess appeared out of no where.



“Liz…I see you are almost ready to pop. I can tell you have been taking great care of my baby.” Tess said laughing.



“You Bitch stay the fuck away from my family” Liz screamed holding her hand up ready to blast her.



“Liz do you actually think that I would come here not ready for your powers…..Boys…take care of them…..There was this bright red flash and then nothing……



“Max, wake up” Liz screamed shaking Max as hard as she could…



With one flip of Tess’s hand Max went flying into the wall. Tess slowly walked up to Liz with one guy on each side of her. Boys hold her down and make sure she holds still. We are taking the baby tonight and killing Liz.



“But I thought boss said to bring her to him.”



“Shut up goon, do you see the boss here? So I make the rules I will tell him that she put up a fight or something. I will not have Liz hanging around me and the baby. That is my baby not hers.” Tess screams in anger.



Tess grabs Liz and lays her hands on her stomach. Are you ready Liz…..Tess said laughing. Her hands started to glow red Liz screamed out in pain as she could start to feel her baby being pulled for her.



“Please Tess Stop it. Max wake up. Why are you doing this to me?” Liz screamed. She could the baby’s pain as she was being ripped from their connection. A Green light shot out sending Tess and the guy across the room……..



She was pulled back into reality by the knocking on the door. She shot up in bed breathing heavy…“Who is it!” Liz yelled as she walked to the door trying to calm herself.


“It’s Jessica we seriously need to talk” Liz open the door and Jessica came rushing in the house looking like she just ran a marathon.


“What’s up” Liz asked looking at her strangely.


“I don’t know, I think your child is calling out to me” Jessica said flat out.


“What?” Liz asked grabbing her stomach.


“I don’t know! I was in the Crashdown and I started hearing this little girl pleading with me to help her. Something is wrong and I can feel it Liz. You and the baby are in danger” Liz looked at her confused.


“We are not Jessica” Liz said as she started to walk to the kitchen.


“You are having dreams about Tess aren’t you? And you are not telling Max about them are you?” Jessica stated like she knew the answer already.


“Jessica we are fine, everything is fine me. Everything is fine and dandy” Liz said pretending to smile knowing that the dream she just had was a warning.


“No it isn’t, your lying” Jessica said. Max came into the kitchen.


“What’s going on?” he asked looking up at Liz and Jessica.


“Nothing Max, Jessica just drop by to give me something” Liz replied smiling walking up to Max.


“Ok” Max said as went into the living.


“I don’t want to talk about this anymore” Liz said softly to Jessica.


“Fine, but I'm not going to let anything happen to this child Liz” Jessica said quickly. Jessica left and Liz stood in the kitchen. Liz started crying she didn’t want Max to see her crying.
The whole tess situation was constantly on her mind. It was like she was watching a video over and over again. Anger fueled in Liz, and suddenly the bulb in the kitchen light blew and shattered into pieces. Liz jumped, Max heard the bulb pop came running in.


“What was that?” Max asked as he looked on the ground.


“Nothing the bulb just blew that’s all” Max noticed Liz was upset about something.


“What’s wrong?” Max asked walking up to her seeing that she was ready to break down.

.
“Nothing! Nothing is wrong!” Liz as she started crying.


“You are crying Liz, I know something is bothering you.” Max said pleading with her to talk to him, as he pulled her into a hug.


“So, what if I am it doesn’t matter” Liz said sobbing.


“Did Jessica say something to you?” Max asked starting to get mad.


“No I really don’t want to talk about it. I need some space” Liz said as she headed towards the door,


“Space? From what?” Max asked grabbing her by the arm and pulling her to face him.


“I need some air” Liz said as she pulled away from Max.


“Liz wait!” Max yelled as he followed her out the door.


“Max please I need to be alone” Liz said softly.


“Liz I'm not leaving until you tell me what’s going on!” Max demanded.


“It’s her, I see her with you every night everyday. I see Tess in my dreams. I can feel her hurting me and the baby. I can feel everything over and over again. Max I’m scared. I’m scared that you won’t be able to help me and I will get you killed. I know something is going to happen.” Liz said crying. She looked up into Max’s eyes hoping that he would understand what she is going through. Liz tried to stand up and a sharp shooting pain ripped through her and she collapsed onto the ground……



“Liz……” Max screamed picking her up and rushed her to the room.





TBC……

*Ten A***





Jessica was so angry she flies the front door of Michael and her apartment. She didn’t even notice Michael sitting on the couch like always watching so sort of game on TV, eating pizza and drinking Snapple. Michael looks up startled.



“What the Fuck, Jessica what crawled up your ass and died?” Michael screams.



“Go to hell Michael. Everything doesn’t revolve around Michael’s world. There are bigger things to worry about.” Jessica snaps sarcastically.



“What is wrong with you, Jessica you have been acting weird.” Michael said getting up off the couch.



“I can’t talk about because I don’t even know. I do know that Liz is stubborn and she is holding a lot of crap in. That’s going to hurt her and the baby. I know something is going to happen. Michael I can’t tell you. Please just understand that I’m trying to figure it out and when I figure out everything you will be the first to know.” Jessica said sighing.



“There is something you should know about Liz she maybe a pain in the ass, stubborn as hell but I trust her with my life. If you tell anyone I will fully deny it. Michael said laughing bringing Jessica over to the couch.



“Michael she has to be open with Max. I know she is hiding something from him. I think that something is bothering her in her dreams but I can’t prove it. Jessica said getting frustrated.



“Maybe, we should be to Isabel and Max and have a meeting with them. Jessica you can’t be hiding stuff from us we are in this together no matter what. You can’t keep secrets we have to be open with each other at least with me. I’m your brother I will never judge you. Michael said rubbing Jessica’s hand.



“Ya, right older brothers are always saying that until you do something you don’t like.” Jessica whispers.



“Did you say some thing?” Michael asked looking at Jessica.



“Nothing….” Jessica replied. She looked up at Michael then felt a weird sensation. Then there was a pain ripping through her head.



“Ahhhh, Michael help….” Jessica said as she grabbed her head in pain. Then all she saw was darkness.



Jessica started sensing something different. She looked over and suddenly saw a little girl with dark curly hair. The little girl smiled at her.


“Ok, I am seeing things now” Jessica said quietly.


“I'm really here” The little girl giggled.


“You are? Who are you?” Jessica said leaning down to her level.


“You know who I am. My mommy and daddy are danger and so am I. I need my protector” The little replied as Jessica saw the fear in the girl's eyes.


“What? In danger? How?” Jessica asked kneeing down. Jessica looked at the little girl pretty amber eyes, realizing who the girl was.


“Bad mean people want me. Mommy and daddy need to be together. And I need my protector.” She said with tears in her pretty amber eyes.


“Who's your protector?” Jessica asked. The little girl pointed at Jessica. Jessica looked down and saw some kind of Alien mark on her arm glowing.


“You” The little girl replied softly.


“What? I can’t be your protector” Jessica said softly.


“Please, help me; please help my mommy and daddy. Mommy is hurting, and she is scared for my life and hers. She is in so much pain. You know what to do. I believe in you. You have to start believing in yourself. This is what your destiny is.” suddenly the little girl disappeared. The mark on Jessica's arm was still glowing.


“Oh god” Jessica said softly. Jessica opened her eyes and saw Michael looking down at her with a worried look on his face.



“I thought I almost lost you there for a moment. That is so freaky shit there Jessica. Look at your arm. What do you think that means? Should I call Max over so he can look at you?” Michael said her quickly.



“No, I think I will be ok. My head hurts really badly though. I might need to take a nap or something. Jessica said trying to play it safe. She needed to think about what the hell she just saw, and she knew that Michael is going to want some answers soon.



“Are you sure? I think we need to know what that glowing mark is Jessica.” Michael said.



“Yes, can you help me to my room? After I take a nap then you can drill me about the mark but I’m just not feeling up to it right this minute. Jessica said quietly.



“Ok for know I will take that but we are so talking when you get up. Michael said looking at her with a look that told her that there was no getting out of it.



“Fine what ever you say big brother” Jessica replied sarcastically.



“What?” He asked.


“Nothing” Jessica said still stunned by what she just heard and saw.


“You have that look” Michael said as he walked her to her room.


“It’s nothing, I was just thinking”


“About?” Michael asked.


“Well, umm about you and Maria” Jessica said



“What about us? Were not together” Michael replied in a hurtful tone.


”Just don’t give up. If you really love her don’t let go so easily. You have to fight for what you want. Jessica said getting in bed.



“I will think about that. Michael said quietly.





*****************************



Max quickly lays Liz on their bed. He reaches for his phone on the desk. Max quickly dials Isabel’s number. I just need to know what is going on here.



“Hello” Isabel said sweetly.



“Isabel you have to help me. I need you to get down to my house fast. Something is wrong with Liz. We are in the room just walk in the house and come up.” Max screamed.



“Ok, I’m on my way. Don’t worry.” Isabel said quickly grabbing her purse running out the door.



Max looked at Liz putting his hand over Liz’s stomach trying to make a connection with the baby. I could feel their connection starting to open but then he feels Liz pushing him out.



“Please Liz don’t do this to me.” Max cried holding her.



“I have to see if the baby is alright. I can’t lose anyone of you.” Max said crying. He was rubbing Liz tummy just hoping for just a bit of the connection to come back. Liz looked like she was in so much pain.



Isabel ran into Max room and saw him crying.



“Shit, I think I should call Michael too.” Isabel said quickly dialing his number.



“Max, what happen?” Isabel said sitting on the bed.



We were talking about Liz shutting me out then she screamed and fainted or something. Liz was telling me about how she was dreaming of Tess hurting her.



Isabel places her hand on top of Liz’s. Isabel passes out right next to Liz. Max quickly gets up off the bed to walk around to see if Isabel is alright. Max notices Liz’s green shield going up over her and Isabel. He reaches over and gently touches it and gets shocked.



“What the hell. Liz, why Isabel and not me? Max asked with tears in his eyes. He sits on the chair by his computer desk leaning over looking at them. ‘I wish I knew what to do’ he thought.



Max heard knocking at the front door….





**************************



About an hour earlier



Michael grumbles when he hears the phone ring. “Shit, Hello…” Michael screams as he kicks the table his toe is pounding in pain.



“Nice Michael a simple Hello would have been nice.” Isabel said sweetly as she laughed.



“Michael we have bigger problems then you missing an old game that you already have taped. Get you ass down to Max’s house and bring your bratty sister too. I have a weird feeling that we just might need her too.” Isabel said sternly.



“What is wrong now? My icy princess, hubby got your panties in a twist?” Michael said sarcastically secretly laughing at what he said.



“Michael Liz is very sick and Max is starting to freak out here. I need a little help. I just got here and I’m looking at Liz and I know I need more help. So, I’m going to ask you one more time my dear spiky brother. GET YOU ASS DOWN HERE.” Isabel screamed.



“Ok, Is I will be there give me a few because I have to get Jessica up she just went to lay down about an hour ago.” Michael said walking to Jessica’s room grabbing his keys off the table on the way there.



“Michael one more thing….If you every mention my panties again or my husband in the same sentence I will make you eat yours. Isabel snapped.



“Oh, and another thing if you are not here in a few minutes I will call Maria down there to get you. I know she would want to smack you around a bit too for some of you comments.” Isabel threatens.



“Awwww Is, please don’t do that I will be there.” Michael whined



“Nice to see that you are scared of a female Michael what else the Boogie man? Just get here and fast.” Isabel laughed.





*******************************



Isabel looked around in the darkness. ‘This is so weird I was just standing over Liz a second ago.’ thought Isabel strangely. Well where am I now? I feel like I’m in some sort of dream plain. Out of the corner of her eye she saw a green light. Isabel slowly walks in that direction.



She sees Liz talking to a little girl. She has the sweetest brown curly hair and the most amazing amber eyes. She knew right then that she must be Max and Liz’s baby.



Isabel saw a flash and now Liz was tied to the bed and very pregnant. She watches as Tess now appears almost from out of no where. She was 2 Men with her wearing strange looking clothes. She can see the fear in Liz’s eyes as Tess walks up to her.



Isabel walks a little closer so she can hear what Tess and those goons have to say.



“Well….well what do I have here?” Tess said sharply as she ran her hand up and down Liz’s arm. Liz was flinching trying to get away from her. Isabel could feel the fear and anger that was boiling up in Liz.



“What the hell do you want Psycho bitch. I thought we got rid of you. You are like a Cockroach.” Liz said as waves of anger rolled off her.



“I’m not to sure how to take that. I do know that you have some thing of mine. The baby you have there is mine and I’m going to take it whether you like it or not.



“You are going to have to kill me before I like you or your stupid friend there touch me.” Liz screamed.



“That can be arranged my dear. Don’t think that I will need you much anymore anyway. Then I can hurt Max as well. Maybe he would want to cry on my shoulder and raise my little girl with me. What do you think? Tess asked evilly.



“I think you should untie me and I would still kick your ass pregnant and all. What makes you think that Max or my baby would want you? Liz yelled.



“I think Liz you have no room to say a damn thing. I’m the one that is in power here remember you are tied to the bed. You know what since I will be killing you anyway I can tell you what is happening. You see your baby is the true heir the all powerful. I know that Khivar wants her more then anything. So, I struck a deal with him. Your baby…. Then he is going to make me Queen. Tess said smiling.



“What makes you think that I will just hand her over without a fight Tess? You should know that I will never let you or anyone raise her but me.” Liz screamed in horror. Just the thought of Tess holding her and trying to play family with royal evilness himself made Liz sick.



“Well, my plan is to just take her straight form you belly. If you play really nice I will make sure that Max and everyone else that is Isabel, Michael and Maria oh ya and Jessica will all be killed quickly. If you kick up a fuss I will cut you up into pieces and send them all each a piece. I would make sure you felt every signal part that I cut off so you would know who got want.” Tess laughs evilly Tess waves over her goons.



“Make sure you hold her down good I can have her squirming to much while I try to make a connection.

“Michael what are you doing here?” Max asked while opening the door.



“I got an urgent call from Isabel to get down here. Some thing about Liz being sick.” Michael said quickly.



“I so glad to see you now Isabel and Liz are in her shield it weird. I can’t even get close.” Max said shaking his head.



“Really, that is weird?” Jessica said surprised.



“Can I go up and see them Max. Maybe I can do something.” Jessica said running up the stairs. Jessica can feel the fear in the room as soon as she walks in there. She slowly reaches out that touches the shield. Instantly she is brought into the same room as Isabel.



“Wow that is some freaky stuff.” Jessica said quietly scaring Isabel.



“What are you doing here? How did you get here?” Isabel said quietly looking at her like she was intruding.



“I have a secret that I have to tell you but you have to promise not to say a word. I just found out that I’m Liz’s baby’s protector. I think that the baby is scared and that is why I’m here. I was standing next to you guy and next thing I know, I’m standing next to you.” Jessica said shocked.



“Really, you are her protector…Why? Isabel said sounding hurt. ‘Why couldn’t she pick me, her aunty Isabel to protect her I know that I would do a better job.’ She thought.



“Isabel I know what you are thinking and I really don’t think she could choose. I think it was already write in the stars. I know you would have been a better but these things we can’t control. I know you have a special purpose you just don’t know what it is. Remember you are the Princess you have ones to protect you. Just like her. Jessica said sweetly know that Isabel was hurt.



“I guess you are right. But, remember that I know where you live and one small mess up and I will be kicking your ass.” Isabel said smiling.



“Fair enough…. Do you know where we are at? I have a weird feeling about this place. Jessica said with a shiver.



“Yes, we are in Liz’s dream plain. See over there that is were Liz goes to during her nightmares. She has been dreaming about Tess.” Isabel said quietly walking closer to the room that Liz was in now.



Jessica looked up and saw Tess reaching over and putting her hands on Liz’s pregnant belly. Jessica felt a sharp pain on her arm and the seal started to shine brightly. Isabel looked over at her arm and saw it glowing brighter and pulsating slightly. They both heard Liz screaming out in pain. Jessica and Isabel look over and saw Liz’s and the Baby’s shield shine brightly almost blinding.



“Shit, Why isn’t this working” Tess screams.



‘I think I can answer that.” said the voice in the dark corner of the room making it self known to every one.



“Me too” Jessica said quickly.



“Well, well isn’t it Michael’s brat sister. What are you doing here?” Tess snapped.



“Well, you should know.” Jessica said sarcastically.



“Who are you over there in the corner and what are you doing here.” Tess yelled.



“I was called here to the real Queen. She needs the strength of all us to pull her through this nightmare. What is your excuse Tess? You of all people should know what happens to someone that harms the Queen.”



“I’m the Queen you don’t know nothing.” Tess spit out in rage.



“You are delusional, that is what you are.” Isabel said quickly.



“Well, I guess I just have to kill all of you here. Boys please take care of them. Tess said while laughing.



Tess raised her hand quickly and aimed it at Liz. “At least I can kill here before all of you can get to her.



“Tess, you know that I know where you are here right this minute you are now being hunted down. I will find you for endangering the Queens life.” screamed the voice from the darkness.



Isabel runs over to Liz and unties her quickly before one of the guys reaches her. Isabel blasts one to the men into the side of the wall. Jessica blasts the other one out of the room. Jessica sees that Tess is trying to escape her reaches over and grabs her by her hair.



“Now, just a minute weren’t you just here fighting with Liz while you had her tied up. I think I should give you a departing gift, some thing along the lines as this.” Jessica said closing her fist and punching her in the nose.



“Wait, I want me some of that. Isabel’ said running over there kicking her quickly in the stomach. Liz sat there shocked to see everyone in her dream. It seems so real. Liz looked over to that spot where the voice is coming from.



“Please show yourself. I want to see you. You say that I’m the true Queen, but I’m human. How do you know and not us, did we miss the meeting?” Liz asked.





“Ok, I will show you what I mean. I promise not to hurt you. I’m your protector. You called me here to help you. Just like your baby called Jessica. Isabel hold a dear place in her heart and her has the ability to come into dreams that is why all of us are here. My name is Serena. I have to touch you to show you the seal. I have a seal on my arm close to the one on Jessica’s. Serena said showing them her arm.



“Watch me…” Serena said holding her hand on Liz’s forehead the royal seal came shooting out of Liz’s head you can see the 5 stars that make the “V” shape planting itself into Liz’s forehead.



“My Queen now I know that I have found you. I will always be here for you, but you have to be careful and protect yourself until I can get there. Serena said kneeing down respectfully.



“WOW” They both said looking over at Liz smiling.



“Bitch, I’m the Queen” Tess said one more time standing up.



“Well I have had enough of her” Serena said blasting tess right off the dream plain.



“Finally some peace and quite.” Serena said laughing.





************************



At that same moment that Liz seal was revealed Max seal shot up into the sky.



“What the fuck” Michael yells.



They hear Liz, Isabel and Jessica screaming. They take off running into the room to see that it is shining green brightly through out the room. Max sees the seal in Liz forehead.



“Oh, no” Max said dropping to his knees crying.



****************************



“You have to wake up and see Max, your king. I bet he is worried about you my Queen.” Serena said sweetly.



Isabel and Jessica laugh. Knowing that Max is going to freak out when he finds out what has happened.



“Jessica and Isabel you need to make sure that Liz stays safe and that no one other then you and the other Royal’s know about Liz. There are some very dangerous people out there that will try and take Liz.” Serena said looking at them.



“I’m counting on you all. I will try and be there soon. Now please wake up and be in the real world. Serena said with one final push.



All three of them sit up in Liz’s bed smiling at each other. Michael and Max see them sitting there smiling as they jump into bed hugging them.



“I thought I lost you.” Max said crying.

It was time, the marks were released and everything was being planned. The elders watched Max and Liz closely through the special glass mirrors they have. The head elder smiled as he seen so much love radiant from Max and Liz. He knew Max was the perfect king. He was strong leader and knew exactly what to do.



“Everything is set we are leaving now” One of the elders in training said to the main elder.


“Good” the head elder said as he watched on.



Max held Liz tightly, Isabel, Jessica and Michael left the room to give them some space. Isabel and Michael had stopped Jessica in the hall outside the room. They were both giving her that Look. She glanced down at the still glowing mark that she had on her arm.


“I guess time for both of you to drill me” Jessica said sadly.



*************************



Serena glanced down at the odd looking mark on her arm. How was she going to explain this to people she worked with. The mark wouldn’t stop glowing. There was a knock on door of her room. She quickly pulled her sleeve down over the mark.


“Who is it?” She asked through the door.


“You know who it is open the damn door” A male voice said quickly.



“Jason, I told you go away!” Serena said as she opened the door.


“I'm not going away” Jason said walking in.


“Well, your going to have to, now leave I have things to do” Serena said looking around the room.


“Like what? Your lousy job or is it something or someone else? You haven’t talked to me weeks what’s going on?” he asked giving her a concerned look.


“Nothing, Its just that I have a lot on my mind right now, with school, work and everything in between I don’t have time to stop and talk” Serena said.


“You know your one of the mysterious girls I know on this whole college campus” Jason said looking at her closely.


“Is that why you like me so much? Now could you please go I have a lot to do before I have to go to work” Serena said trying to get rid of him.


“Fine” Jason said as Serena pushed him out the door. Serena pulled up her sleeve. The mark was still glowing bright. ‘What am I going to do now’ thought Serena sadly. How am I going to explain this? I hate having to hide.



*********************************



“Liz, what happen to you guys?” Max asked brushing her hair away from her face.


“Nothing, it doesn’t matter as long as were together nothing matters” Liz said as she kissed him passionately. Max tried to stop her from kissing him.


“You are not going to get out of it that easily Liz Parker Evans” Max said sternly looking into her eyes.


“Wanna make a bet?” Liz said smiling as she straddles onto Max's lap, knowing that she can make Max forget anything if she tries hard enough.


“Liz this isn’t going to work” Max said softly.


“Yes it will” Liz said running her fingers through his hair. She kissed him again softly. Max wanted more now. He could never resist Liz; she was temptation he couldn’t resist. Liz laughed as Max tickled her sides.


“I almost lost you” Max said softly smelling the sweetness of Liz. The one and only smell that describes Liz to the “T”, He would know it anywhere. It’s like a cross between Strawberries and Vanilla.


“But, you didn’t don’t say another word” Liz said she kissed his face.


“Ok” Max said softly loving every minute he was spending with his wife. Max felt Liz pulling his shirt off and pushing him onto the bed. ‘She is going to be the death of me’ thought max as he felt Liz crawling on top of him.



“Now, be a good boy and listen to your wife” Liz said softly kissing Max on the neck. She knew that special place that drove him crazy. She wanted to make him squirm. She wanted all the control and she wanted Max to be hers right now.



***************************



“I truly don’t know what’s going on with this ugly looking glowing mark” Jessica said to the both of them.


“You are lying” Isabel said.


“Alls I know is what Abby told me” Jessica said softly. Michael and Isabel both looked at her confused.



“Abby?” they both said together.


“Abby Evans, Max and Liz's daughter. She came to me and told me that her mommy was in danger and that she was in danger. That I was her so called Protector” Jessica said.


“Protector?” Isabel said slowly trying to figure out if she was hearing her correctly.


“Yeah, look it up in the dictionary if you don’t know the meaning” Jessica said sarcastically.


“You know your attitude is really getting to me” Isabel said in a huff.


“Good, deal with it” Jessica said. Michael stepped in between them both.


“Hey, no fighting. We will deal with this tomorrow. And figure out what the hell is going on” Michael said going down stairs.



******************************



Serena had a lot on her mind. She couldn’t even concentrate on her work. She called her job for the twelfth time today and told them that she had a lot of school work to catch up on which was a lie. She couldn’t work, not now, not so soon after she had the out of body experience that is just too weird to explain to anyone. She just started being pulled into the so called person's dream she was suppose to protect. What’s her name again…..Liz that is right. Why do I remember things that really don’t make sense to me?



It’s like I should know it but I can’t really remember. Like I know what is happening. I know that this Liz is very important but why is the question? Why do I have to protect her? Why do I feel so strongly about it? ‘I remember she is a Queen.’ Thought Serena



“Holy Shit” Serena said softly.


Serena was happy to blast that bitch out the dream plain. She was so getting on her nerves. But, Serena knew that wouldn’t be last of her. Serena paced the floor. She was deciding whether or not she should visit Liz in Roswell.



*********************************



Tess knew Kivar wanted the child more then anything. So, she talked him into giving her powers back to her. If she wanted to get the child then she needed her powers.


“Thank you Kivar” Tess said bowing.


“Bring me what I want and all will be well” Kivar said.


“I will” Tess said quickly.



Tess smiled evilly, more then anything she couldn’t wait to hold that beautiful child in her arms and pretend like it was hers. The plan was that Kivar and Tess were going to raise the child. Tess had a whole plan figured out.


“Back to earth I go” Tess said as her men that Kivar gave her followed her to the ship.



‘I can’t wait to see the look on their faces when I steal their precious little girl and raise her to be evil. I hope I can get my hands on Liz and show her exactly how much I hate her.’ thought Tess as she formed a plan of killing Liz slowly and very painfully.



*****************************


Liz curled up next to Max. She laid her head on his shoulder. She nudged at him to wake up.


“What? I was sleeping so well” Max said tiredly as Liz laughed.


“Max, keep me warm” Liz said cuddling up next to him.


“Of course sweetie” Max said pulling the covers up over them.


“Max can I ask you a question” Liz asked snuggling closer to him.


“Sure, what is it?” Max said looking at Liz lovingly.


“How many kids do you want?” Liz said smiling.


“I don’t know, but I do want a big family” Max said softly kissing the top of her head.


“Good, because that’s what I want” Liz said softly.


“I can’t wait to have our daughter” Liz said softly locking fingers with Max’s.


“It’s going to be a challenge. But, I think I can handle being father for the first time” Max said smiling.


“I know you are nervous” Liz said kissing him.


“I am” Max confessed quickly.



“I know you will be great.” Liz said sweetly kissing Max softly on the lips.



***************************************



Maria softly knocked on Michael's apartment door. Michael opened the door and was surprised to see Maria.


”What are you doing here?” Michael asked angrily.


“Can we talk for a moment please” Maria said quietly. Michael could tell something was wrong. He could see it in her eyes.


“Is something wrong?” Michael asked as he shut the door.


“Yes and No” Maria said softly looking down at her feet.


“What the hell is that suppose to mean?” Michael said as he went to the fridge and grabbed a Snapple.


“I don’t know how to tell you this but..” Maria paused for a moment and held her stomach. She could actually feel her stomach doing flip flops because she was so nervous coming here.


“But, what Maria? Just say it already woman.” Michael said impatiently.


“Well, I think I am pregnant” Maria said softly. Michael looked at her stunned. He dropped the bottle of Snapple and it crashed to the floor and broke.


“What?” Michael said looking at her stunned. Next thing he sees is the floor as he faints.
