Title: Searching for Michael
Disclaimer: Characters are not mine but the story is.
Note: I've been playing with this idea for a while now. I've just had time to write it but it's kinda going slow right now. But it should catch up soon. There is no Tess.
I hope that this will make up for the short chapters?

Searching for Michael
Chapter 6:
The Other Side of the Moon
Spring break had finally come to Roswell. The air was a buzz with plans of Florida and Cancun. Maria, however, had other plans. She was going to take a road trip. But first she needed a little help.
Maria decided to have a girl's night in to celebrate the two weeks of freedom. Since Amy was gone for the time, Maria took advantage of the house.
With a little help from Alex, Maria had found out where Michael's files were kept. Not that Alex knew that's what she was doing. All files are kept in the city social service office that was in the sheriff's office.
Maria couldn't find them on her own. She would need Isabel's help. Maria first thought he could be in LA, sine that was the place he was bing chased. But she had to be sure before driving across country.
Later that night...
"See there is no movie better then Ever After." Maria said as she got up to rewind the tape.
"Yeah. I'm going to have to agree." Isabel said finishing the popcorn off.
"So what to watch next?" Liz questioned.
"Actually, I wanted to talk to you guys about spring break. Do you have any plans?" Maria asked.
"Just spending time with Max." Liz said with a dopey look on her face.
"Same with Alex." Isabel said with the same expression on hers.
"Oh cut it out. How about we go on a road trip?"
Isabel looked up at Maria with excitement in her eyes, "Where?" Maria smiled when she heard Liz chime in her agreement.
"I don't know yet. But I think California. But we're going to need to take a little stop."
"Maria, where are we going?" Liz looked suspiciously at her friend.
"To find Michael."
"We don't know where he is. I want to see him too, but there's no way to find him." Isabel said.
"That's where you come in." Maria smiled wickedly. "I've found out where to get the information. It's in the sheriff's office in the social services part."
"Oh no. We're not breaking in." Isabel stated.
"Oh please, Isabel? Michael's in trouble. I know he is. We have to help him!" Maria exclaimed.
"How do you know he's in trouble?" The quiet Liz questioned.
"Because I had this awful feeling when... I kissed him. And I saw him running from someone. If we don't help him who will?" Maria declared exasperatly.
"Fine, but why don't I just ask Michael where he is." Isabel questioned. It did seem like the logical answer.
"I thought about it. Why would he believe he's in trouble. I'm the one who saw the flashes. Besides if we asked him why we wanted it he might not tell us because he doesn't want us to come. He might try something WE can't be sure. We also don't want to alarm him if something is wrong." Maria said, running out of breath.
"Good points." Liz said.
"It's late enough to get in and out without being caught. I've been watching the station for the past week." Maria watched as shocked faces showed up on her friend's faces. But she continued, "Tonight is the best night to go. Most of the guards are in the other side of the building. We have to go now."
"Ok let's do this." Isabel said after getting a "ha jah*" from Liz.
And with that their mission of Searching for Michael began.
At the Sheriff's office...
"So how do we get in?" Liz whispered? They were all decked out in dark clothes and their hair was up or in a hat.
"There's a door around her somewhere." Maria said as she searched for the door. "Oh here it is." Maria tried the door before calling over expertise lock smith. Isabel opened the door in a flash.
"Ok. Now where?" Liz asked. Maria looked around.
"This way."
"How are you sure?" Isabel questioned.
"Well I asked Alex if I could use his laptop to do research for a project. But what I researched was on Alex's computer. Did you know he had the blueprints on there for all the government buildings in a fifty mile radius of here?" Maria asked.
"Yea Max asked him to have it just in case." Isabel answered.
As the girls said as they ran down the halls dodging guards and cameras. Finally they made it to the social services wing. It was less guarded. A patrol would sweep every twenty minutes.
"Isabel if you please?" Maria asked as they reached the right door. She was getting anxious about finding Michael. When Isabel opened the door Maria rushed in leaving Isabel and Liz to watch the hallway. She looked at the labels on the cabinets, then opened the one labeled "D-G" She flipped through the folders looking for Michael's
*Guerin, Guerin, Guerin*
"Ah ha! Guerin." Maria said with excitement. She went over to the copy machine and copied all the records. He was staying in the suburbs of LA.
*So I was right. Wait this just got scary." Maria put the file back up as an eager to leave Isabel tapped on the door.
"Ok. Let's go."
"Finally." Isabel said as they ran down the halls back to the car.

How's this? I'll try to update week after next. Spring break is here and there's lots of time to work on my writing.
*"Ha jah" I've recently learned means let's go, let's do this. in Korean. Well that's what I've been told it means. If it doesn't will someone please correct me. And if it's not that I don't mean to offend anyone.
