Please review! I refuse to write another chapter if no one reviews. And another thing I'm going to need help! LOL. Haven't wtitten a story in a long time. Please enjoy!

Chapter 1

I looked up and saw him standing there watching me. Dark hair and piercing dark eyes burned into the very core of my soul. I pushed a strand of hair out of my face and smiled at him. My father walked up beside me and put his hand on the small of my back and led me to the young man.

" Your Highness? This is my youngest and most prized daughter, Ava. Daughter, this is his Majesty, the King of Antar, Zan. A most glorious and beautiful planet you have your highness." My father bowed his head at the very young King and I did so as well.

" As is Kiri, Lord Daine. Lady Ava it is a pleasure, your father has told me many wonderful things about you." He took my hand and in that moment I felt such an intense feeling it was almost as if I were floating on air. He must've felt it as well.

" A pleasure as well your Highness." I spoke softly leaning into him as our eyes locked. The whole room seemed to disappear. It was as if it were only him and I. My father cleared his throat in that moment.

" Ava was commenting on how much she would love to see the grounds of your lovely Palace." I looked up at him and he smiled at me warmly approving with his eyes.

" Of course. Tomorrow my sister and I will show you the grounds. If you will excuse me Lord Daine, I must retire to my room now. Lady Ava, I shall see you tomorrow. Pleasant evening to the both of you." Zan kissed the top of my hand one last time, shook my father's hand and walked out of the room.

The party continued around me. I was introduced to Lady Maretta, wife of General Rath and Lord Aldrich husband of Princess Vilandra who was chatting at the moment with the young Princess of Rezarta, Treania and her husband Prince Kyros.

I excused myself for some air and found an empty balcony. Antar's moons were shining softly down upon the planet as I stared out into the night thinking about the young King, Zan. I hadn't noticed when he was standing next to me but suddenly there was a hand on top of my hand, that was warm and it felt safe. I looked up and our eyes held each other for a moment. Saying everything and nothing at the same time. Zan lifted his hand and touched my cheek.

" I've wanted to do that all night." Zan said with a smile that light up the night sky. I was captivated by what was happening to me. I didn't understand it but it felt so right.

" Your High…." Zan put his finger up to my mouth.

" Please, simply Zan."

" Zan. I thought you were going to sleep?" I said before thinking it through. How absurd of me to question a King. His face turned into a smile and he chuckled.

" Who can sleep on such a beautiful night as this one? Come with me." He took my hand in the moment and we were off running down stairs, through the garden that must've been beautiful. I never once lost balance as he lead me over rocks and down through a path where faintly I heard water. We made it to a clearing a moment later and I saw in the bright moonlight a small yet beautiful waterfall and the water that it fell into was beautiful as well.

" Vilandra and I used to swim here when we were children. She hasn't been here in years. I still come out here from time to time. It's one of my favorite places when I want to be alone." He turned to me and in the moment kissed me with such passion that I knew he was the only man I could ever love for the rest of my life. He pulled back and smiled at me caressing my cheek.

" Zan, I've never felt…"

" This way about anyone? Ava, I love you. From the moment I saw you across the room my heart leapt. It told me you were the one."

" Zan, this is…"

" Crazy? Yes, it is but I never want to be parted from you." He was serious and I felt that way as well. I kissed his hand and looked into his eyes. Tears began to make their way to the surface as I blinked them back. I loved him. I was in love with a complete stranger. Yet, this stranger as strange as it sounded was the love of my life and I knew he felt the same way.

" What do you propose we do about it?" I asked tentatively not sure what his answer would be.

" To never be parted from this day forward. Stay. Marry me. Tomorrow." My head snapped up and the tears I had been holding back made their way out. He had tears in his eyes as well.

" Yes." I said and I threw my arms around him and he kissed me again. In that moment I saw things. Visions. Scary visions. War. Blood. DEATH. I opened my eyes and Zan began to disappear. I began to scream wildly as it all came true around me. Fire. Explosions.

Then everything went pitch black and I fell into the dark abyss but I could still hear myself screaming, screaming for Zan.

" Zan! Zan!" I screamed then shot up straight in my bed. My body was covered in sweat and my blankets were on the floor. My breath was coming in quick and short. I was scared. The room around me was dark and blurry. I could finally take deep breaths and calm down. I turned my light on and grabbed my water bottle. There was a knock at my door and I looked up panicked.

" Sweetie? It's Mom, I saw that you light was on. Can I come in?"

" Yes, of course." I said as my door opened and she walked in with her favorite robe on. She sat down on my bed and patted my leg.

" Another nightmare?"

" It didn't start out that way but in the end it was." I didn't tell her what they were about ever. She used to ask me when I was younger but she stopped that a long time ago.

" Well it's after midnight so good news is today is officially you're 16th birthday. Happy Birthday Lizzy." She kissed me on the forehead, said goodnight then closed my door as she left.

I had forgotten that today was my birthday, well my human birthday. It was also my best friend's Alex and Maria and my cousin Kyle's birthday as well. You might be asking how is this at all possible? Well the four of us aren't from around here and here being Roswell, NM but also not from this planet or even this solar system probably. All I know is we came out of pods when we were about 5 years old and weird thing is one by one we were found. First Maria by Amy DeLuca and her now ex-husband who shall remain nameless. Then Alex by the Whitman's. Then Kyle and myself by my Uncle Jim and my parent's Nancy and Jeff Parker. It was weird but it was almost as if we knew these people were supposed to be our parents. And even more amazing is that they were all friends. It's always been that way, the four of us together. Don't get me wrong we have other friends but when push comes to shove most likely it's the four of us. To answer your question, no, our parents know nothing about us and that's to keep them safe.

We have no idea where we come from. I'm the only one who has the same dream of our former lives every night. We look like we're supposed to but I've never seen the other four in my life. I'm 16 now and I feel it in my very core that things are going to change. If I ever found Zan I know he'd be just like me, a normal teenager but with a secret. I hoped the other four were together and happy. I prayed for it every night. The way I felt about Zan in my dreams, I hope it felt like that in real life. I turned my light off and laid back down.

" Zan." I whispered out loud staring at the moon, maybe somewhere he was doing the exact same thing, thinking about me.

" Ava! Ava!" Max Evans screamed as he thrashed around his bed.

" Max! Max!" Isabel shook him hard this time finally waking him up.

" Izzy? What are you doing in my room?" Max asked his sister as she stood there looking at him.

" You were screaming at the top of your lungs. Lucky for you Mom and Dad are so tired you didn't wake them up." Isabel sat down on the corner of her brother's bed and looked and him worriedly. She knew it was the same dream as every night. He always had the exact same dream from a planet she knew nothing about and a time she knew nothing of. She had always been a little jealous that he got to see where they come from and who they had been in love with. Max looked at Isabel and knew what she was thinking.

" If I could stop these dreams and give them to you I would but I can't. I'm sorry Izzy."

" Max, it's ok. It's probably a lot to handle. I don't think Mom would enjoy getting woken up every night to her daughter screaming 'Aldrich." Isabel laughed a little at that.

" Like I enjoy screaming some girls name every night. Is, there's pain, death all at the end of that dream. It's horrible, a nightmare." Max thought of the young girl in that moment and smiled. She was so beautiful and he had loved her, loved her to the very core of his being. His heart ached for her suddenly.

Isabel noticed the pain in his eyes and she knew that look. She knew that he was thinking about the girl, his Queen, Ava. She suddenly thought of Tess and her cousin Michael. Michael had lost his parent's Hank and Gloria Guerin in a boating accident last year and was taken in by his aunt and uncle, Tom and Olivia Harding. Tom Harding and Phillip Evans were partners in a Law Firm. That brought Isabel down then, thinking about the move.

" Is, are you alright?" Max asked bringing Isabel out of her thoughts.

" Just thinking about this move. I understand if Dad and Mr. Harding want to open a smaller firm and live in a smaller town but a whole new state? I like California, I like Walnut Creek. Isn't it small enough here?" Isabel asked Max.

" There's nothing wrong with moving. Grandma and Grandpa live in New Mexico. Dad just wants to move closer to them and Mr. Harding is moving out there because Mrs. Harding's mother lives out there too. You'll see New Mexico won't be that bad. Besides, we're moving to Roswell maybe we'll be one step closer to finding out where the four of us are from?" Max said optimistically as Isabel smiled at that thought.

'Aldrich.' She thought.
