Summary: Maria finds out something bad

Do you ever get the feeling your being watched? But when you look around no one is there. Then those little hairs on the back of your neck stand up telling you that something is very wrong. I felt the same way the day that my best friend Liz Parker was shot that day in September. That is the way I feel now. I don't usually walk home, especially alone.

I usually drive my car, but my poor baby Jetta wasn't working due to a recent alien adventure. Max said that he was going to fix it after he finished work at the UFO center. He just better or no more Jetta for their searches.

I'm getting the feeling again. I start to walk faster. I can hear that someone is behind me. I break into a jog. I could hear them get closer. 'Screw this bag' I think and throw by backpack behind me and start running with all my legs could. I was fast, but this guy was faster. He grabbed me from behind and knocked me out with his powers.

When I woke up I had the biggest headache. I looked around. It was a white room with nothing in it. I had heard enough horror stories over the summer from Max to be pretty afraid of this place. But I don't think that the FBI is involved. For one thing, the last time I checked they did not have powers that can knock you out.

It had to be the skins. Of course, they were going to use me as a bargaining thing. Well they do not know my friends like I do. They will come and they will rescue me. I wonder what the bad guys are going to do with me in the mean time.

I heard a noise behind the door. I got my leg ready so that when the door opened I would kick them in the stomach and hopefully knock the air out of them. The doorknob turned slowly. The door opened with a creak. My leg was in the air, but stopped before hitting the person. I gasped.

When I found my voice I asked, "Michael?"

I put my foot down. Then I noticed the Michael look a like had these black New York Style punk clothes. He could be only one person. "Rath," I stated.

"The one and only. Don't you feel special, Ria, to be in the presence of such a godly creature. I mean you can bow if you want it won't embarrass me."

I just stared at him. He looked so much like Michael, yet so not. "No, thank you." I told him. Then I remembered my current situation.

"Who the hell do you think you are, bringing me here. My mom is totally going to freak out when she realizes I'm gone. Yeah, and she's going to call Valenti and then he and my friends are going to look for me. Then they'll find me and Michael will kick you ass from here back to your home planet."

I took in a deep breath in. I unconsciously reached for my cypress oil in my pocket and pulled it out. I took a breathed some of it. I looked at Rath. He had a smirk on his face as if I amused him. I looked away. I hated it when Rath smirked. It wasn't his smirk, it was Michael's. He grabbed my arm and said, "Come on Ria. Nicholas is waiting for you."
