I put a little bit of M/M in this part; I enjoy the candyfics whenever I am in the mood. Dreamers and Candygirls rule!
Part 5
"You were gone less than a week. Did you get answers?'' he asked, actually thinking: 'tell me destiny is crap!'
"Well, actually, I was gone two month, it's just that, you know, the time on Antar is very different."
"Wow. That's weird. I mean -"
"Yeah, Maria, we know what you mean and what you're going to say."
"What!? No, you don't know Michael Guerin, who do you think you are to say you know what I'm thinking?" she almost yelled at him.
Michael walked to her and whispered in her ear:
"I'm the guy who share your bed whenever he can." causing Maria to blush furiously. Then he added aloud:
"And you were going to say something like:'If we left for about thirty year to Antar we would be older than our parents when we would come back.' So, am I right Maria?" Michael grinned to himself, knowing that Maria wasn't in state to bicker anymore.
She muttered something incomprehensible to herself before asking to Tess if she had answer about their destiny. After all, she was concerned about it,she knew that Michael wasn't going to leave her soon, even if he had a destiny waiting for him, but still... She just... needed to know. Needed to be sure.
"Yeah."
"SO?"
"We have a destiny -"
"Oh my -"
"Wait a minute Maria, you didn't let me finish."
"Please, Go, Hurry, can't you see I'm dying here?!"
"We have a destiny, but we doesn't have to be with each other."
"Thanks God!"
"Actually, it's more like we mustn't be with each other."
"What do you mean?"
"Well, it would be kinda disgusting, because Max and Isabel are siblings, I am Michael's sister… and… well… Michael and I are Max and Isabel 's cousins."
"You are? I mean, we are? Oh my god."
"Oh God! How disgusting! Max! You kissed our cousin! That's gross!" said Isabel with a 'Eeeww '-face.
Michael still couldn't believe it. He had a family. They were alive.
"Oh My God! I have a family! I have a sister! And I have cousins, it's unbelievable! It's a big family, a real family… Wait a sec. Tess, did you see our parents?"
Maria crisped at his words. Maybe he'll want to go to his home planet to see his parents and leave her behind.
"Umm, well not exactly."
"What do you mean, 'not exactly'?"
"I mean that I have talk with them, but, I haven't really see them as in a human body"
"You mean they were 3 feet tall, green and slimy?" asked Liz.
Max smiled at her words. It was almost the same question she had asked him 'as Maria's question' about two years earlier.
Tess laughed before answering.
"No, sorry to disappoint you Liz, there's not the slightest chance for your child to be a 'little green man'."
"Ha-ha, real funny Tess!" said Liz with a sarcastic smile.
"Actually, on our planet, about once a decade, peoples need to leave their body, for it to be, um… well… restored, kind of. You see, the technology of our planet is really advanced compared to earth, and, people are kinda… immortals."
"Whoa!? You mean you never die ?"
"Well, actually we can die. I mean look at us. We wouldn't be here if we hadn't die in our previous life. It's just that our people know how to keep the soul, for it not to be lost. Thankfully, that technology was found just a few years before our deaths. So when we died, our bodies were useless, you know, they were... destroyed. So basically, they took our souls, and send each one of them in our new bodies that were put in the pods. Since our bodies stayed a really long time in the pods, our souls were inactive and they kind of forget of everything before our 'seconds births'. Maybe with the time all of your memories will be back. Mine are, thanks to an antarian method. Anyway, when I saw our parents Michael, their bodies were being restored from all of the damages they suffered in ten years. They were in some sort of pod, but without body. Their souls could be active since they hadn't any physical barriers. That's what stopped our souls from being active. It was the physical barriers. Our souls are imprisoned in our bodies, and since our bodies were… asleep, our souls were too. I know it may be kinda hard to understand. Anyway I couldn't see our parents but I heard their voices in my head. Ya know, I talked with them, along with Max and Isabel's parents. They were really happy that you've all found happiness on earth, although they… um… they grounded me for What I did to Max and Liz, and to Alex and Isabel. You know, I'm really sorry you guys it wasn't in the meaning of hurting any of you. I didn't know you would suffer so much because of me… I…" her voice was starting to crack. Liz stopped her.
"That's… that's alright now. I guess… I guess we can understand."
"Well, thank you. Very much, for trying to understand me and why I did this."
"So... do you think there's a way for us to see our parents...-" Michael looked at Maria before finishing "- I mean, we could come back on earth after that."
Maria understood what he was saying and smiled to him. He wasn't ready to leave her forever. And maybe he'd never be.
"Yeah, actually you can. I mean you can come back to earth. The same way we came about fifty years ago."
"What?! You mean, in a spaceship?! Doesn't it take a long time?"
"Well, not really, it's about a week and a half. Anyway, it's the only way to go since the Granilith exploded. But, Maybe you won't need it after all."
"What? What d'ya mean?"
"The peace talks took place about three years ago on Antar. The war is over, and while I was on Antar, all of our parents were thinking about taking a little break on earth to visit their children now that all the formalities for the peace are over."
'Oh My God! That's so Great! The war is over! We won't have to fight anymore...'Max was thinking to himself as Tess's words echoed in his mind. But then, he thought about something else.
"Wait a minute. You said the peace talks were held three years ago... But then why did we have to fight the skins this year? And if our parents are coming, then who will look for Antar when they'll be away?"
"Um, Okay Max, I understood everything, but could you slow down please. Anyway, it's normal we fought the skins this year. Because the skins we fought were some Traitors. By know, Nicholas must be in Jail somewhere in a galaxy far away. He won't bother us anymore."
"What about Khivar?" Isabel couldn't help but wonder about that man, the one she was told was her lover in her previous life.
"Khivar, well, he was a traitor, and I guess he's sharing Nichola's cell. Um... Isabel, I guess there's something else you should know. What they told you, I mean what Nicholas and Lonnie told you... Well it wasn't true. You never betrayed anyone. Khivar never was your lover. Actually, I was told that you highly hated him."
That was the best news Isabel had heard in a while. She never betrayed her brother, in this life as well as in the other. She never slept with the enemy.
Max was glad too, knowing that his sister wasn't feeling guilty anymore. He always knew she wouldn't betray him in this life, but knowing what she had 'done' in her previous life, she always had doubts about herself, wondering if she was a good person in the end. Now she wouldn't be doubting of herself anymore. But right now, he had something else on his mind.
"So Tess, you never answered me. Who's gonna watch Antar while our Parents will be on earth."
"Oh yeah right. Well, you don't have to worry about that. It's someone they can trust with their lives. It's an old friends of yours. It's Larek."
"Doesn't he have his own planet to watch?"
"Well, not since his son his old enough to do it."
"Oh."
Everyone one in the room remained silent.
Maria bent towards Michael and whispered softly in his ear:
"So, how does it feel?"
"What?" He whispered back to her.
"To find out that the war that was tearing your planet apart is over... and that you've a big family, who cares about you?"
Michael smiled at the thought. He locked eyes with Maria, and barely above a whisper, he told her:
"It feels great. Thank you for being here for me... and for understanding." She smiled back, and like if it stopped just for the two of them, the conversation continued.
"So, Max, Liz, I think there's a few thing you should know about the pregnancy..."
TBC...
Well, maybe I kinda lost myself in this part, but in the end, I did my best and I hope that you enjoyed it.
I guess the next part will be the last one, but I haven't wrote it for the moment so... you'll have to wait, sorry :-(
Oh, I almost forgot... PLEEEEEEEEEEZZZ Feedback! I shouldn't beg for it, I mean, I have my dignity, but I can't help it. PLEASE!
