Okay I floated back in and got caught up. Whew I don't think I will stay away this long again. I knew Maria would save the day by keeping the orbs. I just hope that she and the children get out of there before all hell breaks loose. So if Kyle's going back through the tunnels safe? I thought that Kivar's guardsmen found the tunnels when Liz escaped. Well I will patiently wait until you update and possibly answer some of my questions. <center>*Denise*

Hey Everyone I just want to apologize for the lack of updates, especially after you all have been so great with all the feedback. I've been agonizing over my Harry Potter story. I'm stuck on one part, and my muse just won't let me work on Roswell until I get past this one part. Please don't abandon my story, I promise I'll update it as soon as possible.

Abandon it? Perish the thought! Not a chance! Hope Harry Potter doesn't keep you too long, though. We're on the edge of our seats here! Well, there's nothing to do but take a snooze. Wake me up when you post again! <img src=http://www.contrabandent.com/cwm/s/cwm/3dlil/sleep.gif ALT=":tired"> Wait a minute! There's "Ruins" to read... and "Royal Alliances," and...

Sacrifice A Sequel to Quietly into the Night Conventional Couples Rating: PG-13 Chapter Thirty-Five Antar – Royal Palace &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp Kyle pushed aside some brush and shoved at a large boulder that was shoved up against the wall of the palace. He gave another mighty shove, and the boulder shifted enough to reveal an entrance to a passageway. He squeezed through it and held out his hand to help Saranara. She slid in and stood next to him, breathless with excitement. “Now what?” she whispered. “We wait,” he answered. “Make sure we got in undetected. If I tell you to run, I want you to get the hell out of here, do you understand?” Saranara nodded, even though she had no intention of leaving Kyle. &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp The pair waited for several minutes, until Kyle was certain they were safe. He took Saranara by the hand and led her through a labyrinth of tunnels. At a junction in the tunnels, Kyle paused and thought for a moment and turned left. He led Saranara up a small incline and motioned for her to remain silent. He pressed a small stone protruding from the wall, and a small panel opened, revealing a small opening to one of the palace rooms. Voices from the room began to filter into the tunnel. “I want her found, Jokorda. I won’t wait any longer!” demanded a voice. Kyle looked at Saranara and mouthed the name Kivar. She nodded to show she understood who was speaking. “What of the others, is there any word on that bastard brat of hers and the Earth mongrel that took him from the palace?” “No, Lord Kivar. Not yet, but we will find them, never fear.” “I don’t fear it Jokorda. It is you who should be afraid – afraid of what will happen to you if you don’t find them. If they are not dead by DoubleMoon, then it is you and your men who will die!” &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp This pronouncement caused Saranara to gasp. Kivar looked around trying to locate the small sound. Finding nothing, he continued his conversation with Jokorda. “What of the traitor, Naloch?” “We have captured him, Lord Kivar, but he won’t tell us anything. He has withstood all the usual punishments.” “Then try something else fool! He has answers, and I want them. I must find Elizabeth, and that brat of hers. Once I kill him, she will realize that it is in her best interest to obey me.” “Yes, Lord Kivar. By your leave, I will return to Naloch’s cell and try to get the answers you seek.” “Yes, fine, go,” muttered Kivar as he paced manically around the room. Jakorda bowed and fled the room quickly, unwilling to draw any more attention to himself than necessary. “I must find Elizabeth,” said Kivar. “I need Zan’s bride by my side to rule. The people will not accept me without her. Antar will flourish with me as its ruler, so long as Elizabeth is by my side.” &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp Kyle closed the panel silently, and motioned to Saranara. The two continued down the tunnels, this time going lower into the bowels of the palace. He stopped finally, and pulled Saranara close. “Kyle, he wants to kill them, and you,” she whispered, her eyes wide with fear. “That monster wants to kill that sweet little boy, my father, and you.” “He won’t,” said Kyle, confidently. “We’ll stop him. He isn’t going to hurt Kam, or your father.” “Or you either?” she questioned. “Don’t worry about me. We need to get your father out of here.” He kissed Saranara gently. “Come on, we have to keep moving. The sooner we get your father out of her, the better.” &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp The couple pressed on, and soon they emerged in what could only be, for lack of a better term, the dungeon. Moans of pain issued forth from the cells. Kyle opened up the cell door closest to him and helped the prisoner out. It wasn’t Naloch, but Saranara greeted him with pleasure. “Barloch,” she whispered. “You’re alive! Who else is here; have you seen my father?” “Aye,” gasped the badly beaten man. He motioned to a cell across from his, and Kyle rushed over and opened the door. Naloch fell out on the floor and Saranara rushed to him. “Father, oh Father, what has that beast done to you.” “Don’t worry child,” said Naloch. “Get the others out.” Kyle went from cell to cell, opening doors and helping the prisoners out of the cells. As soon as all the cells were open, Kyle and Saranara did their best to lead the injured men back into the tunnels. &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp They carried and dragged the worst of the injured through the tunnels and out through the hidden entrance that Kyle and Saranara used. Waiting for them, as the exited the opening, were Max and Liz. “How did you know?” asked Saranara puzzled. “Kyle’s little communication trick was working,” said Liz as she watched her husband begin healing the wounded men. “I heard him call out. He told us what he found, and how to find you, so we came as quick as we could.” “I’m glad it worked,” said Kyle. “Damn, I wish I could get this power to work all the time.” “I wonder if it only works in times of stress?” mused Liz out loud. “Kind of like my visions?” “It’s possible,” said a newly healed Naloch. “But we can’t waste time standing here talking about it. You were foolish to come and get us,” he said, hugging his daughter tightly. “But I’m not going to complain either.” &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp Once everyone was healed, Max led them to where Isabelle, Jereon and Michael were waiting. The small band of rebels had no sooner assembled when Michael began to lead them away from the enclosure that housed the rest of the captured rebels. “We can’t go in this way,” he whispered. “There are too many guards, and they did something to them. Their powers are useless.” “Are you sure, how do you know this?” asked Naloch. “Yeah, I managed to get close enough to talk to a couple of people in between passes of the guards. It’s not good in there.” Naloch thought for a moment, and smiled. “There might be a way. We need to leave here immediately. Jereon, do you remember that tunnel where you and your friends used to play. The one that was caved in?” “Yes, Father. Actually, we have some possessions stored there,” said Jereon vaguely, unwilling to say anything that would put Maria and the children in danger. “We need to go there. Hidden in the tunnels is something that can help us.” “But the tunnels are caved in,” said Max. “You said so yourself.” “No, Max, they are not. They are made to look as if they were caved in. In fact, your father designed them. They were used to hide some things that may be very useful to us.” “If you knew where they were, why didn’t you ever use them before?” asked Max, as the small band of rebels set off on their journey. “The tunnels are locked with a special lock, and only he who has the royal seal is able to open it.” “What is it?” asked Liz. “What’s hidden in the tunnel, Naloch?” “It’s better that we don’t talk about it,” said Naloch. “Once we get there, you will see what I am talking about.” &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp The building came into sight, Jereon and Saranara waited outside with the other rebels, while Max, Liz, Michael, Kyle, Isabelle, and Naloch went inside. Naloch led the way down to the tunnels. “Maria!” yelled Michael. “It’s us, we’re coming in.” Naloch activated the door to the tunnel and the group stepped inside to be greeted by the signs of a struggle. Maria and the children were nowhere to be found. “Maybe they left already,” said Liz. “That’s it, the orbs were charged, so they left.” “I don’t think so,” said Max. In his hand was Maria’s backpack, with the orbs still inside. “Oh God!” cried Liz. “My babies, and Maria. That bastard has them. We have to get them, Max.” “Max, what are we going to do?” questioned Isabelle. “We’re going to kill the son of a bitch,” said Michael, in a dead voice. “Naloch, what’s this thing that can help us?” &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp Naloch motioned to Max and pointed to an engraved section of the wall. “Pass your hand over that, Max. The sooner we get in there, the better. Michael’s right. We have to get back to the palace.” Max passed his hand over the section that Naloch indicated, and the wall in front of them dissolved. They looked inside and were greeted by a veritable arsenal of weapons, some recognizable to the podsters, and some not. “Of course,” said Liz. “Kivar and his followers aren’t equipped to deal with these types of weapons. Remember, on earth, the guns. The bullets killed the soldiers Kivar sent down.” “Correct,” said Naloch. “Zan’s father didn’t want our people to have conventional weapons. We didn’t need them; our powers were enough to defend ourselves. Any time we came in contact with these types of weapons, he confiscated them immediately.” “But he never got rid of them,” said Max. “Your father – Zan’s father wasn’t a stupid man Max. He knew the time would come when they might prove quite useful. He schooled several of us on their uses.” “Great,” said Michael, already pulling out weapons. “Then I suggest you school us pretty damn quick, because I need to go save my wife!” <center>Margo is a Super ORB!</center><center><center>It all started with a boy, a girl and a silver handprint.<center>Countess Majiklmoon Mistress and keeper of the tunes</center></color~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ <a href=http://pub84.ezboard.com/bmajiklmoonsrealm><img src=http://members.aol.com/majiklmoon/image ... 2a.gif></a>

Sacrifice A Sequel to Quietly into the Night Conventional Couples Rating: PG-13 Chapter Thirty-Six Antar – Capitol City &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp Michael passed out the weapons to the small troop of rebels, and Naloch schooled them on their uses. Isabelle whispered something to Jereon and the two left the group for several minutes. When then returned, Isabelle was pushing a small cart in front of her. She pushed her hair back off of her face and flashed the others a weak imitation of her usual dazzling smile. “I figured we may want to bring some extra weapons with us,” she explained, pointing at the small cart. “For the others, once we get them out.” “Isabelle,” said Kyle. “That’s brilliant. They quickly loaded up the cart, and made their way back to the detention center located outside the palace. &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp The group returned to their hidden location outside the detention center. Naloch and Michael began to explain their strategy to the recently freed rebels. While they spoke, Kyle looked around the surrounding woods. “This is freaky,” he said. “What? What is freaky?” asked Saranara, stumbling over the pronunciation of freaky. “That,” said Kyle, pointing towards the forest. “It’s so quite. Usually, we hear the birds, but listen. It’s totally silent.” “It’s as if they know something’s going to happen,” said Saranara. “Listen,” said Kyle abruptly. “I have something I have to do. Why don’t you go referee Isabelle and Jereon.” Kyle stalked off towards the woods. Saranara watched him walk out of sight, tears welling up in her eyes at his harsh treatment of her. Forcing them back down, she turned to help Isabelle pass out weapons. &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp Kyle walked silently through the woods, scouting out the area, but was unable to find anything. He sat down on the ground and leaned his back against a tree and opened his mind to Kam. Kam, can you hear me? Kam? Lexie?” Unca Kyle is that you,” whispered a voice in his head. Kam, where are you? Are you alright?” “We’re back in the palace. Me, and Lexie and Auntie Maria. We were hiding in that place, but some men found us and took us back to the palace.” “Okay, listen to me, do you know where in the palace you are. Think hard, remember all the maps and drawings I showed you.” “I’m sorry Unca Kyle,” whispered Kam’s voice in his head. “I’m not sure. It was kinda scary when the tooked us.” “I know Kam; just relax. Try not to get too upset. The men who took you, do they know who you are?” “Na-uh. I don’t think so. They kept yelling at us, asking us who we was, but we didn’t answer, not even Lexie when that man hit her!” “Someone hit Lexie?” “Yeah, his name was Jakorda. He was really mean.” “Okay, Kam, listen, this is really important. Has Kivar been to see you yet?” “No, is he gonna come? I don’t like him very much.” “No, me either, but if he comes, I want you and Lexie to make a shield around you and Maria. Whatever you do Kam; try your best not to let Kivar get near you. If you can find a way to get out, do it, but make sure you let me know where you are going. No matter what. That is the most important part Kam. Always let me know where you are going.” “What about Mommy, can I tell her?” “Uh, no, don’t try to talk to your Mommy or Daddy right now Kam. They are really busy, but they said to tell you they love you very much. And tell Auntie Maria that Michael loves her too.” “I can do that Unca Kyle. Tell Mommy and Daddy that we love ‘em too.” “Okay Kam, I’m going to break our connection now, but you will be able to get me whenever you want.” “Bye Unca Kyle, I love you.” “I love you to Kaminator,” Kyle whispered out loud severing the connection between him and Kam. &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp Kyle stood up and made his way back to where the others were waiting. He motioned to Michael and Naloch and they quickly made their way over to where he stood. “I contacted Kam,” he said. “What! Where are they?” shouted Michael. “Is Maria okay?” “Relax and calm down, will you?” said Kyle. “They are somewhere inside the palace. Kam wasn’t sure where, and Maria is fine.” “We need to let Max and Liz know. They’re going crazy.” “Are you nuts?” asked Kyle. “We tell them now, and they are going to storm the palace and try to get inside and rescue them. The only thing they are going to accomplish is getting themselves killed.” “We can’t keep this from them, and we can’t leave Maria and those kids in there alone!” shouted Michael. “Don’t be stupid,” snapped Kyle. “Of course we’re not going to leave them alone. I do have a plan.” “Well fine, what’s this grand plan then?” “We’re going to fill in Jereon, Isabelle and Saranara. We’ll tell them everything. Jereon and Isabelle can take our places in the rescue of the rebels, and you, I and Saranara will go in and get the kids and Maria.” &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp “No,” said Naloch. “It’s too dangerous. I don’t want Saranara in there.” “I know it’s dangerous Naloch,” said Kyle. “Do you think I’d even suggest it if there was any other way?” “There is another way,” said Naloch. “I’ll go.” “You are not strong enough,” said Kyle.” “Kyle’s right man,” said Michael. “You aren’t in any shape to go on an offensive like that.” “Neither is my daughter, I can’t sacrifice her like that!” said Naloch firmly. “Naloch, this whole thing is about sacrifices. We’ve all made sacrifices,” said Kyle. “And I don’t think you can speak for Saranara on this. She needs to make her own decision.” “You are right,” he sighed heavily. “But I want to tell her, and if she goes in, I go as well.” “Agreed,” said Michael quickly. He saw the look of determination in Naloch’s eyes, and new that arguing was futile. &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp The small group broke up. Naloch and Michael went to speak with Saranara, while Kyle made his way over to Isabelle and Jereon to lay out his plan. Isabelle and Jereon quickly agreed. Isabelle was unhappy about keeping Max and Liz in the dark but saw the wisdom behind Kyle’s plan. Max and Liz would react like any other parents whose children were in danger. She did tell Kyle that as soon as they freed the rebel that she would tell Max and Liz what was happening. Kyle agreed reluctantly, and hugged his friend for possibly the last time. He walked over to where Naloch and Michael stood with Saranara. “…will be dangerous,” he heard Naloch say. “Of course it will be dangerous,” said Saranara bluntly. “But I’m going to do it. I cannot leave those precious children in there any longer than necessary. I want to do whatever I can to get them out!” “We really do need you,” said Kyle, joining the conversation. “You have the strongest bond with the kids. They’ll go with you without question.” Saranara turned and looked at him coldly and turned back towards Michael and her father. “Just tell me what you want me to do.” Michael glanced from Saranara to Kyle, a puzzled look on his face, and laid out the plan. Saranara nodded and walked away. “What’s up with that?” Michael asked Kyle. “I don’t know, but I’m going to find out before we go in there.” &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp He followed after Saranara and grabbed her arm. “What the hell is your problem?” he asked. “You are my problem,” she answered. “You were so rude to me before, when you told me to help Isabelle. And now, the only reason you want me with you is so I can play babysitter. I’m more than just a babysitter!” “Look,” said Kyle desperately. “I didn’t mean to be rude, I just had a lot on my mind, I was trying to figure out a way to find the kids and Maria.” “Well, did you ever thing about telling me that instead of shoving me out your way like I was some bothersome little pet!” “I’m sorry, I was wrong,” said Kyle. “And for the record, I don’t want you with me because you make a good babysitter. I want you with me because there isn’t anybody else in this world or my own that I want by my side in times of danger. The fact that you love the kids and the kids love you is just an added bonus.” &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp Saranara smiled, mollified slightly by Kyle’s explanation. “Fine,” she said. “When do we go in?” “Hopefully very soon. As soon as Max gives the sign to move in on the compound, I want to double back and go back inside the palace the way we did before. Are you armed already?” She showed him the various weapons she was carrying, and he smiled and hugged her tightly. “I mean it Saranara. There isn’t anybody I’d want by my side at a time like this, except for you.” &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp Max called for everyone’s attention and the group moved closer to where he was standing. “All right everyone. When I give the word, I want you all to move in. Our goal right now is to get those people out and to regroup. Bring extra arms with you. Pass them out to those who can handle them. After we get them out, I want everyone to regroup at Pathtor’s Cavern so that we can move into phase two of the operation. Remember, Cha migno prater de Antara! We fight for the Royal House of Antar!” Max cried out, using the battle cry of his Antarian ancestors. Max grabbed Liz’s hand and the two led their small force into battle. <center>Margo is a Super ORB!</center><center><center>It all started with a boy, a girl and a silver handprint.<center>Countess Majiklmoon Mistress and keeper of the tunes</center></color~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ <a href=http://pub84.ezboard.com/bmajiklmoonsrealm><img src=http://members.aol.com/majiklmoon/image ... 2a.gif></a>

Sacrifice A Sequel to Quietly into the Night Conventional Couples Rating: PG-13 Part Thirty-Seven Antar – Capitol City &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp The rebel troops took up Max’s battle cry. “Cha migno prater de Antara! We fight for the Royal House of Antar!” they shouted, as the stormed the fences surrounding the detention center. The guardsmen were ill prepared for an attack that combined both the Antarian powers as well as more conventional weapons. Max signaled to those on his left to sweep the detention cells and begin releasing prisoners. As the dazed and tortured prisoners emerged from the desolate holding cells, Isabelle quickly outfitted them with weapons. After a brief, whispered explanation s to their use, they quickly joined the battle, fighting the legions of guardsmen that swarmed from the partially rebuilt palace. &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp From the city, people drifted up towards the palace, slowly at first, but more quickly as they saw Max, a duplicate of their beloved King Zan, leading the people in battle against the guardsmen. As word spread, more and more people joined the battle, adding their strength to that of the rebel forces. A roar went up from the rebels when they realized they had managed to overcome the guardsmen. The few that had not been killed or captured retreated back into the palace. Victorious shouts were issued by the rebel troops as Max climbed up on the roof of a low building. He reached down and pulled Liz and Isabelle to stand beside him. The people cheered to see their king standing before him, with his wife and sister by his side. Max scanned the crowed, looking for Michael and Kyle, but he didn’t see them anywhere. He pushed his fear down and addressed the people standing before him. “People of Antar!” he cried over the noise. “Now is not the time to celebrate, for we are not yet victorious.” “Majesty!” shouted a voice from the crowd. “How can we not be victorious? Have we not freed our brethren from their bonds?” “Yes, we have freed many who were unjustly imprisoned, but until we take the palace, and capture Kivar, he is the one who is victorious.” &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp The crowd realized that what their king said made sense. Max waited until they were silent before he continued. “We need to take the palace, and we will, but not here, not now. Surprise is our strongest weapon, and we don’t have that right now, but we will. Fall back, there are those among you who know the rendezvous point, go there now, our plans will be explained to you there.” He waited and watched as the cheering crowd began to disperse. Max knelt down and spoke softly to Jereon. “Michael and Kyle,” he said. “I can’t see them anywhere, your sister or your father either. God, tell me they aren’t hurt.” “Max, I, well,” hedged Jereon. “Max, we have to talk,” interjected Isabelle forcefully. “Kyle and Michael went after the kids, and Maria.” Without a word, Liz stepped up and slapped Isabelle across the face. “Bitch,” she spat. “How long have you known? Why didn’t you tell me? I would have gone in there with them. Were you going to sacrifice my children, or is this all okay because you lost your husband? Is that it, Isabelle? Jesse died, so it’s all right for Max and I to lose our children too? That way, we can all suffer together!” &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp Jereon stepped forward and placed himself protectively between Liz and Isabelle. Max grabbed Liz and held her tightly to him, restraining her from striking out at Isabelle again. “God, Liz, no. Is that what you think? I would never want anything to happen to the kids.” “She tells the truth Liz,” said Jereon “When she heard the news, Isabelle wanted to tell you and Max right away, but Kyle persuaded her not to. He knew you’d want to rush right in and save your children.” “Of course we would,” said Max. “Kyle was right we would have gone in to rescue the kids.” “And sacrificed all those people we just rescued in the process,” said Liz softly. “Max, you can let me go now, I’m not going to do anything.” Max loosened his grip on Liz and she pulled free and moved closer to Isabelle. “I’m sorry,” she said. “What I said was wrong. I wanted you to hurt the way I was hurting. I know you’d never do anything to hurt Kam and Lexie.” “Forget it,” said Isabelle. “Let’s get out of here and find someplace where we can talk.” &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp The two couples quickly altered their appearances and found a secluded area where they could talk undetected. Jereon quickly filled them in on what they knew, including Kyle’s telepathic conversation with Kam, and the plan Michael and Kyle devised to get into the palace and rescue Maria and the children. “Fine,” said Max. “We know they are safe for now, but for how long? We have to get in there and get them out. Liz and I will go in the same way Kyle and the others did. We’ll do what we can to cause distract Kivar and whatever guards they have on the kids so that Kyle and Michael can get them out. Jereon, I want you and Isabelle to head back to the rendezvous point and get everyone together. Tell them I want them to move in now.” “No,” said Isabelle. “Max, I’m going with you and Liz.” “Isabelle, I said you are going with Jereon.” “Max, she’s right,” broke in Liz, unexpectedly. “Together, we’re stronger together than we are apart.” She laced the fingers of her left hand through Max’s hand, and the fingers on her right hand through Isabelle’s. Jereon looked at Max who nodded. “Be careful, Princess,” he said, looking at Isabelle. “You and I aren’t finished yet.” He took her free hand and brought it up to his lips and kissed it gently. “I’ll be back for you,” he said and slipped away. &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp &nbsp Isabelle watched as he slipped away into the murky twilight. She looked back at Max and Liz and took her free hand and intertwined it with Max’s. “Together,” she said. The trio armed themselves, and made their way to the palace. They located Kyle’s hidden entrance with little difficulty and slipped inside. Liz took the lead, relying on the many maps of the palace that Kyle had shown her to guide their way. They made their way through the intricate network of tunnels, peering into various parts of the castle with no luck. “Damn it,” said Liz. “This is so frustrating. Why can’t we find them?” “Relax Liz, we will,” whispered Max, rubbing her shoulders gently. “What’s that?” he asked. “What’s what?” asked Isabelle. “I didn’t hear anything.” “Shhh,” he said, as the muted sound of voices drew closer. <center>Margo is a Super ORB!</center><center><center>It all started with a boy, a girl and a silver handprint.<center>Countess Majiklmoon Mistress and keeper of the tunes</center></color~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ <a href=http://pub84.ezboard.com/bmajiklmoonsrealm><img src=http://members.aol.com/majiklmoon/image ... 2a.gif></a>
