Disclaimer: I still don't own Roswell or Sailor Moon. (Like, duh. As if.) All I own is my really old laptop (still hasn't been updated beyond windows 3.1), my cats, and my math textbook, so don't sue. You can have my math textbook cheap. *grin*

Rating: Still PG.

AN~: You knew I couldn't write a fic with Liz dead, didn't you? Well, I can't. OF COURSE Max is gonna bring her back to life. Now shhh. Let's see how he does it. Oh, and let's just pretend there are only four healing stones, okay? Good.

Now, on with the fic...

Max's eyes watered as he heard Liz's last words and watched the light in her eyes die. The connection between them faded as her heart stopped beating. Silence stretched out as everyone stared at Liz's lifeless body.

Michael slowly walked to the still kneeling Max, and gently placed a hand on his shoulder. "She's dead, Maxwell." he murmured softly.

Max stayed frozen for a minute, barely aware of the other people in the room. All his mind could comprehend was that Liz, his Liz, was gone. Dead. A hot-white pain started in his chest.

"No she isn't!" he shouted, shrugging Michael's hand off. 'Liz isn't dead!' his mind thought frantically. 'She can't be dead!' Max began to shake Liz's shoulders gently, then harder. "Wake up Liz! You have to wake up!" The white-hot pain seared though his heart and soul, and he closed his eyes as he began to glow with it.

Michael was worried about his best friend. He knew that Max loved Liz, that they were soul mates. But this mourning, shaking Liz's body, couldn't be healthy. He reached out his hand again, preparing to force Max away from Liz's corpse if need be, when Max began to glow with a white light. Michael's hand touched Max's shoulder, and a searing pain shot up Michael's arm. Michael snatched his hand away, grunting from the pain.

Maria hurried to Michael, "What happened?"

"He burned me!" Michael exclaimed. As Isabel, Alex, Kyle, and Tess approached the now brightly glowing Max Evans, Michael warned them, "Don't get too close."

Max felt the white light envelop him and comfort him. He recognized Michael's voice, but he couldn't understand what he was saying. All he was aware of was that there was this infinite power trapped inside him, and if he could only get it out, then maybe he could use it to make Liz live again. He tried to figure out a way to do that, but his mind was so clouded with grief that he couldn't think straight. The center of his forehead felt like it was burning and his head was aching terribly.

Strange, almost half-forgotten memories flashed into his mind, but he didn't understand them. He saw himself and Isabel standing on some sort of shining white dais. He saw the night sky and instead of seeing the moon nestled in with the stars... there was a familiar blue planet suspended in the sky. He saw Michael and Liz standing side by side, a strange silver symbol on both of their foreheads. He saw both his alien and his human friends wearing tuxedos and strange sailor suit dresses in the colors of the rainbow. No matter how hard Max tried, he couldn't figure out what these visions meant. Could they be memories from his home planet? But if that was the explanation, than was that Earth that he had seen floating in the sky? And why were Liz, Maria, Alex, and Kyle in his vision? Frustrated from lack of understanding and miserable from Liz's sacrifice, he let the tears that had been welling up inside of him begin to fall.

The light surrounding him faded slightly, and a small golden crescent moon symbol formed on Max's forehead. His clothes shimmered and changed into white slacks, a white chest plate of armor with gold trimmings, and a long white cape appeared on his shoulders, snowy white with golden lining. A broadsword was strapped to his left hip. A single tear fell from his eye, and hovered in the air in front of him, radiating blinding silver light. Michael, Isabel, and Tess felt something and looked down at their hands that were holding the healing crystals. Each healing crystal dematerialized until they were nothing but four glowing amber balls of light that flew towards Max's hovering teardrop and were absorbed into it. The teardrop turned into a small clear crystal, and Max opened his eyes, his gaze glued to the hovering crystal.

"Heal her," he whispered to the crystal, his voice sounding older and more commanding than usual. The small crystal shot a beam of silvery light into Liz's body. Her body convulsed once, and then began to glow with a chocolaty brown amber light. Slowly, her chest began to rise and fall and a silver glowing symbol appeared on her forehead, of a circle with two perpendicular lines inside it.

"That's the symbol of Earth." Alex murmured, eyes locked on his friend's forehead. Liz's clothes shimmered too and morphed into a long dark brown dress with silver trim and silver barrettes in her hair. Her eyes opened and she gazed up at her love.

"Zandro." she murmured lovingly to him, her voice sounding older and more melodic.

"Leda, my love." Max replied, his older voice filled with affection.

"Huh?" Everyone else in the cave chorused.

Suddenly, the silver crystal flashed, blinding everyone.
