<br><br>        Part 42<br><br>                “What happened? Did you call Max?”<br>He shook his head. <br>                “I didn’t know what to tell him,”<br>                “Alex, what the hell is going on?” I hissed at him.<br>                “She’s been talking about Khivar nonstop since we got up,”<br>                “What do you mean talking about Khivar?”<br>He stared at me with clouded eyes.<br>                “She’s been saying how he has come back for her and how she must go to him,”<br>                “Where is she now?”<br>                “I gave her some pills from the doctor to make her sleep,”<br>                “You drugged her? What about the baby?”<br>                “They were prescription pills because…she wasn’t sleeping as much as she should, they are safe for the baby,” <br>                “We need to tell Max,”<br>                “Tell Max what?” Michael said idling over.<br>I told him what Alex had told me about Isabel.<br>                “You left her alone? Are you nuts?” Michael began.<br>                “Calm down Michael, he’s in a bit of shock here. Why don’t you take him back to the house and I’ll call Max and drive his car,”<br>Michael nodded taking Alex, who was now in some sort of catatonic state, by the elbow leading him out.<br>        I rushed into the backroom looking for my father. He was at the grill with one of the new cooks. <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> I need you Geiphe</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> He looked over to me and gave me a slight nod. I rushed up the stairs to grab my phone and purse. A few seconds later I heard footsteps and turned as Geiphe bounded into the room.<br>                “What’s wrong?” he asked. “Is it the Royals, are they hurt?” <br>                “It’s Isabel…she’s been moaning about Khivar and how she needs to go to him,”<br>                “Vilondra. It is Khivar, he is pulling her to him,”<br>                “What are you talking about?”<br>                “Khivar has mastered the ability to brain warp and is reaching for Vilondra, if he gets to her, you all will have to be cautious,”<br>                “Is it the same as Tess?”<br>                “No, she gets you to see what she wants you to see. Khivar has the ability to call with his mind upon another’s,”<br>                “What can we do?”<br>                “You must get her to remember her anger for him, it is the only way,”<br>I nodded and ran out the room. I called Max as I swerved through the streets to Alex’s house.<br>                “Michael called me, I’m on my way,” Max said.<br>                “Right, see you there,”<br>I pulled into the driveway and rushed into the house. Michael was standing by Isabel’s side on the couch. She was still asleep. He reached over and checked her pulse.<br>                “It’s normal,” he whispered.<br>Alex was sitting in the big armchair, just watching us. I looked over at Michael. He motioned for me to follow him to the kitchen.<br>                “He’s flipping out,” Michael said when we were out of earshot.<br>                “What do you mean flipping out? Flipping out, how?<br>                “He was mumbling something in the car about losing her,”<br>                “I’m going to get inside her head and see if I can help,”<br>We heard Max pulling up the driveway as we walked back into the living room. Alex was still in the armchair watching Isabel.<br>                “How is she?” Max asked bursting through the front door and rushing to his sister’s side.<br>                “She’s fine,” Michael said.<br>I informed both of them about what Geiphe had told me.<br>                “He won’t stop until he’s dead,” Michael said.<br>                “I can’t lose her Max, I just can’t” Alex said from his spot on the chair.<br>We turned to face him.<br>                “You won’t Alex,” Max said.<br>                “I’m going in, “ I said and kneeled down beside Isabel, taking her hand.<br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> Isabel, can you hear me? ISABEL!! Stop yelling Liz, I’m right here. Are you ok Is? I’m so sleepy Liz, so tired. I know Isabel, but it was best for you. Khivar is calling me, Liz. What does he want Isabel, why is he calling you? He wants me to be his queen still. He still wants me. Isabel-listen to me. You are not Vilondra, that was different time in your life. You have a husband that adores you, a child that will be so beautiful on the way. You have to fight him. You have too. He killed you Isabel…he killed your whole family. Isabel? Please listen to me.</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> I heard sobbing and quickly snapped out of her mind. Isabel was crying. She began mumbling something.<br>                “Alex, come take her hand,”<br>Alex slowly stood and walked towards us. I put his hand in hers and then held there other hands.<br>                “Liz, don’t...we need you fresh,”<br>                “Max, I have to…it’s the only way,”<br>I began to show Isabel flashes of Alex and Alex flashes of Isabel. The images and feelings began to overwhelm me and I let their hands go. I closed my eyes and willed the throbbing to not even start.<br>                “You ok?” Max asked, helping to my feet.<br>I cautiously opened my eyes. No pain, no throbbing. I smiled and shook my head around just to be sure. <br>                “I’m great,” I said.<br>I looked at Alex. He looked refreshed, awake, he looked like Alex.<br>                “Thank you Liz,” he said. “Thank you,” <br>He kissed Isabel’s palm. She began to awaken. She stared at the three of us.<br>                “What is this? A party?” she snapped.<br>                “How you feeling sis?”<br>She looked at all our expectant faces.<br>                “My head hurts a bit, but I’m fine…what happened? Why are you all looking at me like I’m crazy?”<br>                “I almost lost you,” Alex said.<br>                “Never Alex, never,” she murmured pulling him to her for a gentle kiss.<br>                “Isabel, do you remember what just happened?” I asked.<br>She nodded.<br>                “I’m going to kill that bastard myself,” she responded.<br>                “No, <!--EZCODE BOLD START--><b> we</b><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> all are,” Max said.<br>                “We have to do this together,” I added.<br>                “I remember what is was like to be with him, I remember being so blindly in love with him and I remember you Liz, you telling me he was cheating, he was using me…I remember,” she said, an anguished cry stuck in her throat.<br>                “That was then Izzy, this is now. You aren’t that person,” Michael said<br>                “My family died because of me,” she continued. Alex enveloped her in his arms.<br>                “No, our family died because of Khivar, because of his ruthlessness, not because of <!--EZCODE BOLD START--><b> you</b><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> Isabel,” Max stated.<br>                “He’s right Isabel…Khivar was warping you, you could never have avoided the signs, you’re too smart of a woman for that,” Michael said.<br>                “Is that a compliment Michael Guerin?” Isabel said, a smile playing on her lips.<br>        He bashfully looked away.<br>                “Might as well mark it on the calendar, the next won’t might be a long ways coming,: he finally managed.<br>        Isabel rolled her eyes at him and we all shared a laugh. It was what we needed to break the tension, to make us forget for a moment that this might be the last day of our lives.<br> <p><center>*************<center><font color="DC143C">And I believe</FONT><center> <center><font color="F8F8FF">That angels breathe</FONT><center> <center><font color="FF8C00 ">And that love will live on and never leave</FONT><center><center>*************<center>************* <center><font color=" FF8C00">The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return"</FONT></p><i></i>

Part 43<br> “You warned them,” Nicholas said, pacing back in forth.<br> “I didn’t,” Tess said, brushing her hair in the mirror before her.<br> “I was there, I saw the look in your eyes. Khivar will love this bit of information,”<br> “So tell him, who do you think he will believe? The face of a 14 year old child or the face of his lover?” she spit back.<br> “I may look 14, but I demand you give me the respect a Colonel of the Royal Army deserves”<br> “So call him already,” she said spinning away from the mirror to stare Nicholas down.<br>He eyed her suspiciously. She remained smug and unafraid. It turned him on; he advanced on her and grabbed her roughly.<br> “I know a way I can be made to forget your little lapse in judgement,” he sneered.<br> “Get your pimply teenaged face away from me,” she warned, struggling to break free from his grasp.<br> “I can make it worth you while Ava,” he continued.<br> “I wouldn’t sleep with you if you were the last alien on Antar or Kaspar,” <br>He let her go and she fell back against the dresser.<br> “You are nothing but a worthless, second class Queen,”<br> “Get out before I kill you,” Tess yelled, “Just get out,”<br>Nicholas laughed and backed out of the room. Tess knocked everything off the dresser and fell on to the bed in tears. Second class queen, he was right. She had never amounted to anything more. Zan could never bring himself to love her; Khivar was still in love with Vilondra and even her on Earth she was not wanted. She was only good as a warm body when there was no one else. <br> “I’ll get you all back for making me the outcast,” she mumbled to herself. “You will rue the day you scorned me,”<br> She sat up in the bed and wiped the tears from her eyes. Tonight she would show them who was second class. Tonight she would prove that it was she that deserved to be feared and revered.<br><br><br> The evening came upon us faster than any of us expected. I was sitting in front of my dresser applying a bit of makeup when the voices came. <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> Battle lines are drawn, do not doubt the cunning of the General.</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> I stared at myself in the mirror.<br> “Of course they’ve been drawn. They were drawn on another planet,” I said to my reflection.<br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> Beware the fair one. All is not what it seems</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br> “It’d be nice if you could cut the cryptic stuff,”<br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> Beware-</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> I cut the voice off.<br> “Yeah, I heard it the first time, beware the fair one, thanks,”<br>I didn’t know where the attitude was coming from but I liked it. I assumed it was my nerves, but it was expected, right? Here I was ready to go to my high school reunion and not only could I not enjoy it, I had to worry about the end of my life. Why couldn’t things in Roswell ever be normal? I continued with my face when my dad knocked on my door.<br> “Shouldn’t you be at the school already?” I asked, turning to face him.<br> “I came to check on you before I left. Are the Royals ready?”<br> “As ready as they can be. What happens if we fail tonight?”<br> “You will not,”<br> “But we could. We never even found out what army or where? Suppose Isabelle can not fight Khivar’s mind pull? There are too many loose ends Geiphe, we are not ready,”<br> “Elise, the power you need is within, it will come when you need it,”<br> “More cryptic messages, wonderful,” I said throwing my hands in the air.<br> “It isn’t cryptic. The people of Antar have known that this day would come. Khivar would never rest until all lineages of the Royal family were eliminated. The Queen knew this and made sure that you all would be ready to face him. The scientist on Antar made sure you would be able to destroy Khivar when the day came,”<br> “And what? He pulls on army on us and we all of a sudden are ready to fight?”<br><br> “Not quite that way, but yes. Remember when I told you about being able to really <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> see</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> someone? This ability is available to all of you to use, you must open your mind, allow the energy to consume you,”<br><br><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><b> Knock,knock</b><!--EZCODE BOLD END--><br><br> We turned to see Max in a sharp suit standing at the doorway. Geiphe fell to his knees in a bow.<br> “Sire,” <br> “Please rise, I am not a King,” Max said, seeming rather embarrassed.<br> “You are the last true King of Antar, is a pleasure to finally meet you,” Geiphe said, rising from the floor.<br> “Um, ok,” Max said. “But I don’t do well with all this King stuff, I’m not even sure what’s going to happen tonight,”<br> “Khivar will be defeated,” Geiphe said matter-of-factly.<br> “How can you be so sure? Why did you wait so long to make yourself known to us? We needed you as children growing up, we needed you as teenagers…”<br> “I understand your frustration Sire,”<br> “Do you? Are you sure you do? I have 5 people that are counting on me to make sure they don’t die and I’m not even certain if I can promise them that,”<br> Geiphe shook his head in understanding.<br> “The will of the people will be done,” he finally said.<br>I rolled my eyes and got up from my vanity, knocking over a bottle of perfume. As it tumbled to the floor I through my hand out and stopped it midair, bringing it back to the top of the vanity.<br> “Wow,” I mumbled.<br> Geiphe turned to face me.<br> “You are ready, do not doubt it. Khivar would be wise to be afraid, very afraid,”<br>And with that he left the room. Max stepped further into the room, looking over my dress and nodding his approval.<br> “You look wonderful,” he said smiling.<br> “Thank you,”<br> “Are you ready?” he asked, an implied question of ready for battle.<br>I nodded and reached for my evening purse.<br> “I hope so,”<br> “Liz?”<br> “Yes Max?”<br>We were standing side by side and I turned to face him. Our bodies mere inches apart. I could feel the electricity between them.<br> “I need to tell you something,”<br> “Ok…”<br>He stepped away from me and to the new board that held my pictures. At first I thought he had forgotten he was going to ask me anything, he seemed engrossed in my captured memories. He pointed to our senior year group prom photo. <br> “Things seemed simpler back then,” he whispered.<br> “Maybe, but you were still hiding from the Feds and everyone else, that couldn’t have been easy,”<br> “We had been doing it so long, it was second nature,” he said finally turning back to face me.<br> “Did you ever think it would turn out like this?”<br> “What battling our sworn enemy?”<br> “No…with friends that don’t care where you’re from,”<br> “No…no I didn’t. But I’m glad it did,”<br> “So…what did you want to tell me?”<br>He looked pass me and to the balcony and then into my eyes, slowly stepping closer, until we were again face to face.<br> “I wanted to thank you for allowing me to remember what we were to each other,” he said huskily.<br> My breath began to quicken and I felt him reach for my hand. He rubbed his thumb across the top of my hand and it felt like heaven.<br> “I-“<br> “Let me finish or I may never get it out,” he said, smiling gently.<br> “Sorry,” I said. Could he hear my heart as it thumped wildly in my chest?<br> “You only verified what I’ve known ever since I saw you…Liz Parker, I have loved you since the 3rd grade and if I had to live my life over again…I would hope that somehow I’d find you again and again,” he said all at once. “If tonight is our last night alive…I just wanted you to know how I feel, how I’ve always felt.”<br> My mouth opened, only no words came out, so instead I pulled him to me and pressed my lips against his. At first he didn’t respond and I thought I had acted to quickly, but then it was like we had known each other our whole lives. My head began to swoon and he pulled me closer. His tongue darted furtively around my mouth, as if afraid to move too much, afraid it would all end if it made the wrong move. He groaned as my hands slid slowly along his neck, and I felt as if I was about to drown and slowly pulled away. We both just stared at each other, unsure of what to say, unsure of what to do <br> “I’m glad I know,” I said.<br> “Me too,” <br> “Now, let’s go kick some alien ass,” <br><br> <br><br><br> <br><br> <br><br><br> <br> <br> <p><center>*************<center><font color="DC143C">And I believe</FONT><center> <center><font color="F8F8FF">That angels breathe</FONT><center> <center><font color="FF8C00 ">And that love will live on and never leave</FONT><center><center>*************<center>************* <center><font color=" FF8C00">The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return"</FONT></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=

Part 44 <br><br> <br>Max had rented an SUV for the evening. He escorted me to the passenger door and opened it for me, making sure I was securely in before shitting the door. I thought about leaning over to unlock his door, but realized the SUV had power locks. Oh well, so much for that test.<br><br>“Kyle said his dad stepped up security and will be looking for any people that don’t belong,” he said after turning over the engine.<br><br>“I wonder what Jim thinks is up,”<br><br>“Kyle told him he heard that one of our classmates was in an abusive ex-relationship and her ex-husband might show up drunk and belligerent,”<br><br>“Nice cover,” I said, nodding.<br>Max turned the radio on and the CD light came on.<br><br>“I was listening to Counting Crows,” he said.<br><br>“I‘ve always liked them,”<br>He hummed along to the cd and I just watched him from the corner of my eye. I had never realized how good-looking he really was. He caught me staring and smiled.<br>“ Better watch it…I might turn to stone,” <br>“I wouldn’t let that happen,” <br>We reached the high school and pulled into a spot on the other side of the gym. I saw Kyle’s truck, Maria’s Jetta and Alex’s SUV.<br>“If anything happens, we can all slip out the back of the gym and meet here,”<br>“Sounds good,”<br>He hopped out of the SUV and quickly came around to let me out.<br>“You impress me with your chivalrous ways,” I mocked.<br>“Always a ladies man,” he said with a wink. He locked the SUV and extended his arm. I took it gingerly and we went inside. <br>Greeting us at the front of the gym was Isabel and Maria. They were sitting at a long table, which held our nametags. Max and I sauntered over and stood in line behind a few other couples. I tried to make out faces and names…everyone looked so different. I looked for sings of Tess or Khivar, not seeing either one.<br>“Liz Parker is that you?” said a voice from behind me.<br>I turned and found myself staring at a very pregnant woman. She reached over to hug me. I hugged back, at a total loss.<br> “You don’t remember me, do you?” she said nodding, the smile on her face never once faltering.<br>“I hate to say it, but no,”<br> “Sheila Matthews, now Carter. We had…”<br>“AP English together all 4 years,” I said, smiling, finally recognizing her.<br>“It’s so good to see you and your date…why hello Max Evans. So are you too…” she looked at my hand for a ring and I quickly shook my head.<br>“No, just friends,”<br>Max took my hand.<br>“Good friends,” he said.<br>“Oh, yes well, I became good friends with Allan Carter and look what happen,” she said, laughing.<br>“Allan Carter? He was 2 years ahead of us wasn’t he?”<br>“We started dating in college and it’s been one heck of a ride ever since. This is my 2nd child,” she said pointing to her belly.<br>“Congratulations,” Max said.<br>“Yes, congratulations,” I added.<br>It was out turn at the table.<br>“Isabel, Maria,” I said.<br>“Oh you look so beautiful Liz,” Maria squealed, reaching over the table and hugging me.<br>“Thank you, you both do too,” <br>“Where’s Alex?” Max asked as Isabel pinned his nametag on his jacket.<br>“Talking to the band,” she said pointing to some doors.<br>“Pam and Mary are going to take over for us in a few minutes, our table is just inside and to the left,” Maria added.<br>Max and I walked in, taking in all the details of the gym. It was decorated in our school colors. To one side was a great big corkboard with tons of pictures from all four years. I looked around for Tess, and still nothing.<br>“Have you seen Tess since this morning?” Max asked.<br>“No, not since her battle with her inner demon,”<br>I walked over to the table and saw Kyle sitting there. Max whispered something about finding Michael and walked back to the table with Maria.<br>“Hey Valenti,” I greeted him.<br>“Hey yourself,” he responded. <br><br> “Have you seen the big evil yet?”<br>“No, I haven’t really noticed anything out of the ordinary. You ok? Max told me abut what happened with Tess,”<br>“I think she might be having a real tough time deciding what side she’s on,”<br>“Yeah, well after the stunts she’s pulled, would you trust her?”<br>“I-I don’t know,”<br>“Liz? Are you kidding me? The girl wants us all dead and you’re having second thoughts about her <!--EZCODE BOLD START--><b> true</b><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> character?”<br>“We just need to be careful with her is all Kyle,”<br>“Yeah carefully demolish her,” he said shaking his head and looking past me. “Here comes the dastardly duo now,”<br>Michael and Max were heading to the table, engrossed in conversation.<br> “What’s going on?” I asked.<br> “I combed the whole school, there is no sign of Khivar or an army,” Michael said disgustedly.<br> “Well no news id good news,” I said.<br> “And no one has seen Tess,” Michael added.<br> “Maybe the lovelorn queen is planning on a fashionably late entrance,” Kyle said.<br> “She was here and left,” Isabel said <br> “Left? Did you see if she came with anyone?” Max asked.<br> “Of course we watched, we couldn’t see anything…the car she came out of was…” Maria began.<br> “A black car with tinted windows,” I finished for her.<br> “This makes no sense, where’s the army, where the hell is he hiding every one?” Michael said harshly.<br> “Calm down Space boy, getting worked up isn’t going to help the cause,” Maria said, wrapping an arm around his waist.<br> “I can’t calm down, I want to get this over with,”<br> “Still worried about your dancing skills,”<br>We all turned to the voice and there was Tess. How had she snuck up on us like that?<br> “You look great,” Isabel cooed.<br> “Thank you, just a little something I picked up in New York one weekend,” she said smiling at us.<br>I stared at her, deeply, completely, trying to really <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> see</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> her, as Geiphe had told me. At first I saw nothing but my dislike and pity for her. I continued staring as Isabel asked her more about her dress and shoes. I glanced quickly at Maria and realized she was watching Tess too. I looked back at Tess and finally saw it. I saw her power; I saw her anger, her hatred. She was in pain, but so angry, so very angry. Maria put her arm in mine and pulled me away from the group.<br> “Liz, she’s furious,” Maria said in a hushed tone.<br> “You see it too?”<br> “Do I? She’s a walking time bomb,” <br> “I wonder if this is part of Khivar’s plan,”<br> “Too have her furious? How could that help? Look at Michael he’s ready to bounce off the walls. I’m so worried that he will do something stupid and get himself hurt,”<br> “I can’t pick anything up in her mind. all she keeps saying is <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> stay calm, stay cool</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->,”<br> “Sounds like Buddhism, maybe she’s been hanging around Kyle,”<br>I gave Maria a look and she shrugged. We walked back to the group. The band had gotten on stage and was warming up. My father was there and he nodded in my direction. Alex was also on stage.<br> “Welcome back to Roswell High, class of 2002. Be sure to take a look at all the wonderful items for sale before leaving…and now for your listening and getting jiggy with it pleasure….The Crashdown band,”<br> The crowd clapped and the band began to play. They began with a cover of Lifehouse’s Hanging by a Moment. A few people ventured onto the floor, many just watched and talked. Max came over to me and whispered in my ear. I laughed and as I turned to face him, I saw Tess watching us. As her face contorted in jealousy, I remembered how she had caught Zan and Elise the same way. She watched us for a second longer and then walked to the bar. I tried to get inside her head again and all I heard was her murmuring <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> cool, calm, cool, calm</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END-->. <br>The night continued and we still had seen no signs of Khivar. I excused myself from the group and left the gym. A few others had wandered out here as well, talking in small groups. I walked through the halls and came upon my locker. I remembered all the time Maria, Alex and I had spent at the lockers, gabbing, rehashing exams, and finalizing weekend plans. I smiled to myself and reached out to trace the numbers on the locker.<br> “Hello Elise,”<br>I froze in my tracks, afraid to turn around.<br> “Do you think by not looking at me, maybe I will just disappear?”<br>I slowly turned around and there was Khivar. He was in a black suit, his eyes a dark icy blue color. I finally saw feeling…hatred and a certain amount of smugness. <br> “No Khivar, I was hoping maybe you’d be a figment of my overactive imagination,”<br> “Always a confidant one. I see now why Zan has always done well with you by his side. It’s a pity he won’t live on this planet long enough to fulfill his destiny with you,” he said with a laugh.<br> “I’d say you have a fair amount of confidence yourself,”<br> “Oh? And should I not? What are you going to do?”<br>I raised my hand a flung Khivar against the lockers. He slammed against them and slipped to the ground with andoomph’. I pulled my heels off and began to run. As I made it around a corner I slammed into a solid wall…only I couldn’t see it. I reached my hand out and felt a surge of electricity. I tried to run back the way I had come and instead found Khivar there.<br> “So, you do know about some of your powers…too bad it’s to late,”<br>A man appeared from thin air and quickly grabbed me. I tried to fight him, but he was too strong. He managed to bind my wrist and threw me over his shoulder and we made our way outside. I shut my eyes and searched for Max. <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> Max…I need you...Khivar is here. LIZ? Where are you? Khivar is here, where? I don’t know…he caught me. Please hurry. WHAT? We are on our way. Can you tell us…</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> The connection was cut off.

Part 45<br><br>        “He has Liz,” Max managed to tell the group.<br>        “Oh my God, how, where?” Maria began.<br>        “I don’t know, but we have to get out of here,” Max said making a beeline for the door.<br>        “Where’s Tess?” Kyle asked, looking around. She was no where in sight.<br>        “The bitch must have known he was here and left,” Michael spit.<br>The group made it to the cars when Isabel realized Alex was not among them.<br>        “I have to go back for Alex,” Isabel said.<br>        “I’m going after Khivar and Liz, “Max said. <br>        “Such a predictable little group aren’t we?” said Khivar appearing from between 2 vans that was parked in the same area.<br>Max raised his hand to strike.<br>        “Don’t do something foolish Zan,” Khivar said.<br>        “Where’s your army? Where’s Liz,” Max said.<br>        “Elise is safe...for now. As far as my army…look around you, they are here,”<br>Everyone looked around and didn’t understand what Khivar was talking about and then Maria began to scream. Michael grabbed her and she fell against him in hysterics.<br>        “It seems someone in your group can see what is not evident to the rest of you,” Khivar laughed.<br>And then the army appeared. It was a group of about 20 men in Antarian army fatigues. They appeared from thin air.<br>        “Great Buddha,” Kyle whispered, pulling a gun from his waistband.<br>        “Well, not even he can help you now,”<br>        ‘What is it that you want?” Max said, standing tall.<br>        “For you to be dead,”<br>        “Killing us once was not enough?” Michael said, stepping up beside Max.<br>        “Actual it is not. It seems your people still are loyal to you and your family. I can not run a government where there are those not faithful to me,”<br>        “What good would our deaths do?”<br>        “Don’t you see? There are people awaiting your return...if you are dead, they will wait no more,”<br>        “My family and people are here…I no longer am a king,”<br>        “Yes, well, we will see to that for once and for all, into the van, all of you,”<br>Isabel began to walk to Khivar.<br>        “Isabel no,” Kyle called, trying to grab her arm.<br>She raised her hand and flung him aside.<br>        “My lord, am I ready to be with you again,” she said in a monotone voice.<br>        “My sweet Vilondra,” he said, reaching for her hand and kissing it gently.<br>She turned to the group.<br>        “Do as he says, please,” Vilondra said her eyes pools of black.<br>The army opened the van door and Michael hesitated before taking Maria’s hand and getting in. Kyle followed him and they waited for Max to get in. Max stared at Khivar and then Isabel.<br>        “There is no way out of this predicament, Zan,” <br>        “Brother, please do as he says, it will be better this way,”<br>        “What have you done to her?”<br>        “I have missed my sweet Princess, if she is good her and her child may live,”<br>        “Isabel…it’s Max,”<br>She stared at him, indifferently. His shoulders slumped and he stepped into the van. Khivar took Isabel and led her away to his car.<br>        “How did he do that? Why can’t she fight him?” Maria asked, clinging to Michael.<br>        “I don’t know, I’m so fu*king tired of not knowing,” Max said running his fingers through his hair.<br>        “It’s ok Max, we’ll figure it all out,” Maria managed, smiling briefly. “And you’ll get Liz back,”<br>        “Get her back...we didn’t even have a chance to start anything,” Max continued, his voice breaking. “What if this is it? The last night of our lives?” <br>        “It’s not,” Kyle said. He had been staring back at the school and staring after them was Jeff Parker and Alex.<br><br>“Where are they going?” Alex asked.<br>        “It is Khivar. He has taken them,” Geiphe said.<br>Alex looked at Jeff, his eyes wide.<br>        “You know about Khivar?”<br>        “Yes, I know about Khivar, I know about the Royals,”<br>        “You do?”<br>        “Yes, Alex, I do, now lets go,”<br>        “What about the band? Aren’t they…”<br>The look Geiphe gave was enough for Alex to not complete the sentence and run to his SUV.<br> <p><center>*************<center><font color="DC143C">And I believe</FONT><center> <center><font color="F8F8FF">That angels breathe</FONT><center> <center><font color="FF8C00 ">And that love will live on and never leave</FONT><center><center>*************<center>************* <center><font color=" FF8C00">The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return"</FONT></p><i></i>

<br>Part 46        <br>        When I finally opened my eyes I noticed I was in a big room. AS I started to look around I felt the throbbing. It was like I had a herd of elephants running through my mind.<br>        “Are you ok, Baroness?” said a voice from beside me. I lifted my head to look and saw Nicholas there.<br>        “What do you care, little boy?”<br>        “Just being a good host,” he spat back.<br>I knew those eyes from my previous life.<br>        “Yes, well you can shove the act. I’m not telling you anything and I refuse to cooperate,”<br>        “Makes no difference to me Elise…I will be glad to see you die yet again,”<br>I closed my eyes trying to reach Max. <br>        <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> Max can you hear me?</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br>A few minutes passed. I watched Nicholas watch me. <br>        “It seems you know more about your powers than Khivar thought…it will do no use to try and reach anyone with your mind,”<br>        “What are you talking about?”<br>        “You know what I am talking about,”<br>I gave him what I hoped was a perplexed look.<br>        “Um, actually no. My head is killing me,”<br>        “Elise, Elise your little act is fooling no one,”<br>        “STOP calling me ELISE, my name is Liz Parker,”<br>        “You are the Knower,”<br>        “So what? So much for being <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> the knower</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> I don’t even know how to get myself out of this mess,” I said, my voice quivering.<br>Nicholas looked at me and I tried to think about being scared, and confused. <br>        “Scared are you? Don’t worry, Khivar will be swift with his punishment,”<br>        “And then what? You return to space and live happily ever after?”<br>        “With Khivar in total control...yes it will be a happily ever after,” he laughed.<br>His phone began to ring and he answered it stepping from the room we were in. I looked around and realized I was in a warehouse. It had to be the Yates warehouse. I took a deep breath and caught a small whiff of petroleum. I tried to reach Max again.<br>        <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> Max…please hear me.<br>        Liz is that you? Where are you?<br>        I think I’m in Artesia at the Yates place,<br>        We are headed there now. Are you ok?<br>        A bit of a headache, but other than that fine. I can’t hear an army Max, I think it’s just me and Nicholas,<br>        There IS an army...somehow they are invisible half the time or something, be careful…they could be in the room with you,<br>        An invisible army? How are we going to defeat what we can’t see,<br>        Stay calm we will be there shortly...we had no choice but to be taken by Khivar,        <br>        And Tess? <br> We haven’t seen her at all,<br>        I’ve got to go…be careful,<br>        Wait Liz… </i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br>I broke the connection as Tess walked into the room. She smiled at me, almost sadly.<br>        “You didn’t listen, I tried to tell you and you wouldn’t listen,”<br>        “Tried to warn me? You’re obviously working for the enemy,”<br>        “You wouldn’t listen to me and neither would Max,” she continued rambling, pacing back and forth “But we will see who laughs last,” <br>She closed her eyes and seemed to be in a trance. At that moment my head began to swell and I fell to my knees. I could see flashes of things from her mind...she was trying to warp me. I pushed the ideas she was sending back at her, getting up from the floor and rushing at her. We fell to the ground together, rolling over each other as I tried to grab her hands.<br>        “You beast ,” she yelled struggling to get me off her<br>Nicholas and a few armed guards rushed into the room, grabbing me around the waist and off of her.<br>        “You were trying to warp me,”<br>        “Exactly...that way with your mind mush, the other won’t struggle as much,” she hissed, getting up of the floor.<br>        “It seems like old times, you two at each other’s throats,” Nicholas laughed.<br>        “Isn’t it a pity that even on another planet, with a history Max can’t remember, he still doesn’t want you,” I said and smiled.<br>        “You bitch,” she screamed lunging at me again.<br>This time I was ready and placed my hand out stopping her midair. I lifted her up and spun her a few times.<br>        “I on the other hand do remember some things about Antar,” I said laughing, lowering her to the ground.        <br>        “NICHOLAS, do something, NOW,” she screamed running from the room.<br>Nicholas had stood there, watching us, obviously amused by the interaction.<br>        “Why Khivar may just want to have you two duke it out,”<br>He made a motion to one of the guards whom immediately placed some sort of cuffs on my hands, stationing them behind me.<br>        “I was just having some fun,” I pouted.<br>        “Yes well, while amusing I can’t have you thinking you can attack any of us whenever the mood strikes,”<br>I shrugged as from the ceiling chains were lowered and I was bound and heaved up.<br>        “Don’t you have any powers, Colonel?” <br>        “Don’t worry about my powers,” he said in a huff and left the room.<br>A guard was stationed below, meant to watch me.<br>        “So, you’re part of the Antarian army?”<br>The guard ignored me.<br>        “Look buddy, I’m a Baroness back there so your better start talking,”<br>He blinked and then looked around before saying bowing.<br>        “Please forgive me Baroness Elise,”<br>        “So you do talk. What’s you’re name?”<br>        “Private Aleman, ma’am,”<br>        “Ok, I’m going to call you Al for short, if that’s alright?”<br>        “Of course,”<br>        “Now…since you’re talking to me…you must not be loyal to Khivar, is this a correct assumption?”<br>He looked at the door and then nodded ever so gently.<br>        “That’s good, I’m going to need you help, will you help me?”<br>        “I have sworn myself to the true Royals of Antar, Baroness, you are included in that oath,”<br>        “So how and why are you here?”<br>        “Khivar has had his scientist make a portal into which we can appear and disappear. I am only here because if I do not fight for him...he would have my family killed…I have a 2 year old son, Baroness…” he said, tears coming to his eyes.<br>        “You will see your son grow to be old Al, just do as I say when the time comes,”<br>        “As you wish,”<br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> The King is near</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br>        “They are bringing the Royals,”<br>Aleman stationed himself tall and stared at the door. A few minutes later Max, Michael, Maria and Kyle were shoved through the door.<br> <p><center>*************<center><font color="DC143C">And I believe</FONT><center> <center><font color="F8F8FF">That angels breathe</FONT><center> <center><font color="FF8C00 ">And that love will live on and never leave</FONT><center><center>*************<center>************* <center><font color=" FF8C00">The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return"</FONT></p><i></i>

Part 47<br> “Are you ok Liz?” Maria asked, staring up at me.<br> ‘I’m fine…where’s Isabel and Alex?”<br> “Isabel…is with Khivar,” Michael said quietly.<br> “Is she ok?”<br> “If you call her acting like a tramp ok,” Maria said.<br> “Maria!” Michael said.<br> “What? It’s true. She is on him like white on rice,”<br> “She can’t help it Maria…she must be weak because of her pregnancy,” I said. <br>Khivar came into the room with several guards and soon all of us were hanging from chains. Aleman was again left to watch us. <br> “So what now?” Kyle asked.<br> “Shh…there’s a spy in the room Valenti,” Michael said, gesturing as best he could towards Aleman.<br> “General Rath I am not a spy for Khivar, I am forced to be part of the army,” Aleman said bowing low before Michael and Max.<br> “And we are expected…”<br> “It’s true Michael, he’s on our side,” I said. “Al here has a son that Khivar has threatened to kill if he did not become part of the army, lucky for us he has sworn his loyalty to the Royals,”<br> “And how can we know for sure?” Max asked, staring intently at Aleman.<br>Al looked at the door and then raised the sleeve of his shirt. He peeled away what we believed was skin and then we all saw it. On his arm was a tattoo of an R with the royal V around it. <br> “Those that have pledged their allegiance to you Sire, all bear this mark,” he said proudly. “And those that do not cover it and chose not to follow Khivar?”<br> “Are killed,”<br>As Max asked Al more questions I heard Geiphe calling to me.<br> <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><i> Elise it is I, Geiphe…can you hear me?<br> Yes, where are you? <br> I am with Alex; we are on our way. Elise, there has been a break in the balance…the army is here,<br> Yeah, we kind of figured that part out already…how do we defeat Khivar Geiphe, you must know,<br> I have told you Elise, the power lies in all of you,<br> That’s not good enough Geiphe, we need something solid, not cryptic,<br> Elise, again, I am not being cryptic...if there was a solid way to kill Khivar, I could have done it myself,<br> I see. So what this really means is that the people of Antar will not be happy until WE have killed Khivar,<br> Yes Elise that is what it means. I was only sent here to protect and guide you,<br> Well you haven’t done that to well if we are all here with Khivar, waiting for him to kill us,<br> Khivar will not succeed, it is not the destiny,<br> There is no preprinted destiny Geiphe…destiny is what WE make it, not what some book from space deems it,<br> Precisely Elise, precisely</i><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--><br>And with that the connection was broken. <br> I had watched the interaction between Max and Al and it seemed that Khivar’s plan was to torture us, slowly, making us each pay for his inability to rule Antar completely. I thought about what Geiphe has said about knowing how to defeat Khivar when the time came...it seemed like a load of crap to me, but I was willing to do anything to get out of this alive. I began sending thoughts to the group and we finally all agreed to concentrate and try and break the chains that bound us. Al watched us expectantly, listening for Khivar or any other soldier to return.<br> “And if we break through these chains…are we suppose to just let our selves fall to the ground?” Kyle asked, breaking the concentration.<br> “It’s only about a 10 foot drop, Valenti...aren’t you suppose to be the jock?” Michael chided.<br>Before Kyle could answer the doors opened and in walked Isabel. She stared at us all dangling from the ceiling. I noticed her eyes were black saucers of nothingness.<br> <br> “Isabel, are you ok?” Max asked.<br> “I am fine brother, Khivar has told me he will not harm me,”<br> “He’s lying to you Iz,” Michael said.<br> “General Rath, you know nothing of my relationship with King Khivar…he loves me,”<br> “Isabel, listen to me,” I began, getting her attention. “Khivar is not the king of Antar, he does not love you…don’t you remember how he used you before,” I said quietly, but with an edge to my voice. She wavered for just a second.<br> “Elise, you would be wise to join the side of Khivar. He can make you most powerful,”<br> “ I wouldn’t work with anyone that killed by family Vilondra,” I spat back<br> “They were killed for the good of Antar,”<br>Maria cut her off before Isabel could say any more. <br> “Isabel…it’s me Maria. You may want to believe what Khivar is telling you…but you can’t, you have to go deep in yourself and find out what your heart believes. I can tell you what the true owner of your heart and mind believes. You have a wonderful husband, who has loved you for most of his life. He adores the way you hair shines in the sunlight, the way you get excited at the prospect of going Christmas shopping for family and friends. He watches you when you sleep, cause even after 11 years of being together…he can’t believe YOU chose him,”<br> “Stop it,” Isabel said, cover her ears.<br> “I’m not going to stop until you fight him Isabel, he lied to you before and he will do it again,” Maria continued.<br>Isabel fell to the ground in tears. Al went to her and she pushed him away.<br> “Why can’t I fight him,” she sobbed. “Why can he control me that way,”<br> “Is that you Isabel?” Max asked, his voice soft, concerned.<br>She looked up at us, angrily wiping away tears.<br> “I’m so sorry Max…I’m sorry,”<br> “Isabel, listen to me,” I said. “He is only as strong as you let him be, you have to fight him,”<br>She shook her head in agreement, got up and brushed her dress off. We heard footsteps and she stiffened. Khivar entered the room and looked at us. Isabel turned to him and smiled.<br> “They refuse to listen. I am done pleading my case...do with them what you will,” she said.<br>Maria gasped.
