"Wait! Hold up! Your telling me my dad called you?" Kyle repeated for the fifth time in a row.
"Yes!" Maria hissed, "For the last Kyle get it through your thick skull that he called and focus on the crisis at hand." She pulled Michael closer to her on the couch; it seemed she couldn't get close enough to his warmth. She realized everyone was staring at her, and all she did was say "What?"
"Umm…Maria, Kyle didn't say anything!" Liz informed her staring from Maria to Kyle.
"Well tell him to stop thinking so loudly then, that's all I can hear," she said in a mocking voice 'your telling me my dad called you?' So Kyle just stop thinking about it, okay, yeah he called he's fine, at least you know your dad is fine, unlike the rest of us," she snapped. Everyone was staring as if she had totally lost it, and she was beginning to think she had, ever since Max saved her, she had developed the lovely art of mind reading among other things. Even though most of the time she enjoyed her powers right now it was a curse, she had enough on her mind, without Kyle invading her thoughts. Then she looked up at Kyle and said "Sorry, it's just, damn it, I thought this alien crap was over with!"
"Everyone needs to calm down! We'll figure this out," Max was saying his calm voice seeming very edgy. "Maybe we need to go and investigate this ship?"
"Would that we be just the three of you? Or all of us, because if you say just the three of you, I'm staying here with Maria and Michael tonight, I swear I will Maxwell." Liz said, "This effects us all, especially since we all have the powers." Everyone in the room nodded, except Liz, who could see the answer in Max's eyes.
He looked right at her and said, "We can't all go Liz, you need to be here for the kids. That way if something happens they won't be alone." Max heard a noise in the kitchen, held his hand up and used his powers to open the door, Lexy, Katty, Destiny, and Alex fell on top of each other. He knew they were listening, how could they not be, it was a discussion they should have been involved in but, none of them wanted to tell them anything just yet.
Destiny stood up and smoothed her skirt back down looking at Max and Liz, her eyes never strayed from theirs as she spoke, "No!" she said firmly, "either we all go, or no one goes. You can't expect us just to sit, and wait and see if are parents are coming back, and we're not about to lose any of you! So either you take us with you, or you don't go."
"Destiny, sweetie its not that simple" Liz began, but was cut off immediately by Katty.
"Why not, we're a family and families don't desert each other!" Katty said pleadingly to her parents, then Lexy joined in the fight, "If you do go and something happens to even one of you the rest of you will spend your lives blaming yourselves. If that happens we won't be able to live with it." Than she added in a whiny voice, "besides I want to go to Roswell for my birthday, and I always get what I want!" Katty and Destiny smiled knowingly as Maria disentangled from Michael and disappeared from the room.
Alex joined in the attack of their parents, looking right at his mom and dad and said, "face it folks, if there is something out there, we need to know, and you'll need our help. Besides if you don't take us with you, you know we'll jump a plane and follow you," he finished giving his parents a big grin.
Max just looked at the four kids and said, "What about school? It's the middle of the term and we don't know how long this will take. I'm sorry but you can't go."
"Maxwell, they deserve to know!" Izzy started, looking at Kyle who nodded, after a few minutes of silence, they all agreed the kids would go to Roswell with them. "But what do we tell the school?" Isabel asked, "And how are we going to get there on such short notice?" That's when Maria's blond head re-emerged, Isabel hadn't even noticed she disappeared. The blond was holding a palm pilot, and arguing with someone on her cordless phone. Just like Maria to make a phone call in time of a crisis, Isabel thought smiling.
"Yeah, Roswell, New Mexico! Whatever is the earliest flight!" Maria was saying into the phone, "umm…okay we can do that make reservations at the nearest motel for tonight and make a check in reservation for the Tumble Weed Inn starting tomorrow. Yeah, ten of us, no not the business account, our personal one. Okay, thanks Sam, yeah we'll call if we need anything else." Maria hang up the phone to find everyone staring at her, she looked at Destiny and Katty who wore bright smiles. She did exactly what they expected her to do, and then she just looked at everyone and said, "If your going you better start packing, the plane leaves for Las Cruses in three hours!"
"Maria, I can't believe you just did that without waiting for our answer!" Max almost screamed, he hadn't played leader in a long time but the site of it made Maria break out in a smile. She sat back down next to Michael, who just laughed, she knew he was happy, there was no way he was going to leave Maria or the girls here while he was in Roswell.
" Maria? What do you mean our plane leaves in three hours?" Liz cried.
"I talked to Sam, she got us booked on the eight o'clock plane to Las Cruses, because it was the closet straight connection to New Mexico, once there she got us some rental cars, and reservations in the closest hotel. Everything's taken care of, Miss Smith said the kids could turn in a video documentary of their trip, she gave me a list of things it needs to include. Now I think we should go pack, and then we can call and let Valenti know where coming," she said rambling.
Everyone was still staring at Maria, not saying anything. Finally Isabel broke the silence and asked timidly "So we're really doing this? We're going back to Roswell?"
Kyle wrapped his arm around her and said, "It's going to be okay, Izzie, I won't let anything bad happen to you or Alex I promise." He leaned over and kissed her, then said, "Let's go get packed," and started to walk away then turned to Maria, "I want to be here when you call him!" Maria and Michael just nodded and smiled watching Kyle and Isabel dragging Alex out the door.
"We should probably go pack too!" Max said, then looking at Maria he smiled and said, "But are you guys sure you can afford this, I mean the plane, hotels, cars, and shutting down the studio for a week."
"We're not shutting down, as a matter of fact, Missy was thrilled when I told her the news." Michael said, referring to Maria's assistant, for the past eight years.
"Yeah, she's ready, and she can handle it for a few days. Besides we'll be there if she needs us." Maria said. As if answering Max's questioning look, she produced her palm pilot and cell phone. He just smiled at them and left with Liz and Destiny.
