Please note that I post under Angelic on the Roswellfanatics board, so I didn't steal this!

Title: What once was lost...

Disclaimer: Don't own Roswell don't own dragonball Z. However if I could make Trunks mine forever I soooo would!

Rating: Pg :13 for now, but later it will be NC:17 and/or R

Couples: Liz/Trunks

Summary: Liz Parker knows about aliens, she knows that she isn't with her real parents; she even knows she is stronger then anyone else she knows. But soon she finds that fate has a funny way of finding her!!!

Authors note: The beginning may seem similar to family ties (another dbz fic that rocks), but it takes a different direction. The prologue is set between the cell saga and the sayiaman saga; coz Liz is Goten's twin. The bulk of the story is set right at the end of dbz when they're at the Tenka'ichi Budokai (world marshal arts tournament). However there is no Uub at the tournament. Amarante is Liz, and it means the ever-blossoming flower. Also there is no Alex... I know I know that's evil of me, but just think of Goten as Alex, they both hold a kind of innocence, but Goten is way more of a ladies man!

Note: the song is Heart attack by Sum 41

[i]All the lights were off. 'That's strange!' Liz thought to herself.' She opened the door, with Goten right behind her. As soon as the bell on the door, the lights sprang on,

"Surprise!" [/i]

[b]Part 15: Happy Birthday... Happy singing [/b]

"What the f..." Liz thought she was gonna have a heart attack. She looked around. All her friend and family were packed into the crashdown. She spotted Max's new girlfriend and she could see Max wave at her from the corner of her eye. Her mom and dad were standing at the front of the crashdown. She walked up to them. "Who's idea was this?" Liz asked them. She sounded pissed, but mainly it was just the shock.

"It was your fathers idea. He likes gatherings, but usually he's late. In fact he only just got here, didn't you Goku?"

"Well uh... yea... but I had to pick up the..." Chi-Chi elbowed him in the chest.

"He had to pick up your gift." Liz just grinned at her dad.

"Thank you." She gave him a hug. She turned to her mother. "This is your day too. I mean you did give birth to me, plus with what happened that day so long ago..." She trailed off.

"Oh sweet heart." Chi-Chi pulled her in for a hug. "Go have fun." Goten came up and gave his dad a hug, and his mother a kiss on the cheek. The music was turned on, and food was served out.

"Ladies and gentlemen!" Maria stepped up to the front. "We have a very special surprise for you today. Let me introduce the 3 Z's."

"The who's?" Goten asked Liz.

"I have no idea who they are. I bet Maria booked some really crappy band to play for our party. She always does things like that."

"Hmm... Yea. The 3 Z's sounds like some really bad 80's band or something!" Goten and Liz sat down at a booth. They saw that Maria was trying to bring someone out from the back, but obviously who ever it didn't want to come out and be embarrassed. Liz also noticed that there was a drum set, bass guitar and a normal electric guitar. 'Wonder who they could be.' Liz also noticed that Trunks hadn't been around for the last half an hour or so and that Serena was also all alone. 'Interesting.'

"Hey Serena, come over here!" Liz called out. The tall girl walked over to their table and sat down. "Hey, you know Goten don't you?"

"Sure thing. Have you guys seen Max? He's disappeared ages ago without saying a word!"

"No, I was wondering that too!" Before Liz could say another thing, she saw Max, Michael and Trunks come out of the back room. Each where wearing black combats and black T-shirts. 'THEIR THE 3 Z'S????'

"Uh ladies and gentlemen this is a one time performance. Lets all thanks Maria for being mad at us and forcing us here!" Michael called out to the crowd. Maria glared at him.

Trunks began to play the guitar. 'He can play?' Liz thought to herself. He also began to sing.

"Remember when there was nothing else to do,

but lie and bed and,

wonder how it was

always up to you,

and no one else and

Early mornings made by warnings,

what's the point of the alarm that I'm ignoring?

it's either raining, I'm not complaining,

but waking up is hard to do so,"

Michael was playing the drums, while Max played the bass. Liz knew that Max learned how to play from Alex.

"There pretty good." Serena whispered over to Liz. She nodded in agreement. Michael began belting out the chorus.

"Turn my head, it's back to bed with no delay,

can't be bothered by the phone ten times a day,

why get up, my morning doesn't even start till two?

forget really waking up is hard to do."

Liz couldn't believe her ears. Her brother could sing. She didn't know how she could miss a fact like this, and how did Maria know that he could sing. 'Maybe she walked in on him in the shower too!' Liz grinned. She glanced around. She could tell that Isabel was also shocked, and saw Bulma whispering to Vegeta, looking proud of her song. Max began to sing the next verse.

"remember when we would hang out everyday, and we would rather,

not be told to do or what to say, cause nothing mattered,

never boring with slept in mornings, not ashamed of bad habits that i'm forming,

it's not important if days are shortened, i can't make time when nothing's new,

Cause waking up is hard to do so."

Isabel made her way up to Liz.

"How is it I didn't know that my brother or Michael could sing? Maria wouldn't have made them do it, unless she knew that they could sing!"

"Yea that's what I thought. How did she do it?" Liz replied. Isabel just shrugged.

Michael began to sing again,

"Turn my head, it's back to bed with no delay,

can't be bothered by the phone ten times a day,

why get up, my morning doesn't even start till two?

forget really waking up is hard to do."

"Liz I know he's your and all, but your honey is looking fine..." Maria told Liz.

"How did you know they could all sing Maria. I mean I knew about Trunks," Liz began to plus at Isabel's comment, "but how did you know about Max and Michael?"

"Ahhh... I cannot say, for the only reason they are singing is because I said I wouldn't tell you.

"[i]Please....[/i]" Liz wined.

"Well ok then."

Max and Trunks began to sing together,

"What's a day when it all ends up the same, and lasts forever?

Can't complain when there's nothing there to blame, and things can't be better,

Summer evenings, teenage grieving's,

got no problem with the life that I've been leading,

No concentration on hesitation, i can't make time when nothing's new,

Cause waking up is hard to do so!"

"See it was about a year ago. I walked into your apartment looking for you and guess what I saw?"

"What?" The girls asked Maria.

"Max and Michael sing the theme tune to the teletubbies! It was so fucking hilarious! Man when I busted them they looked like they were about to piss themselves!!!!" They all began to laugh. The three guys began to sing together,

"Turn my head, it's back to bed with no delay,

can't be bothered by the phone ten times a day,

why get up, my morning doesn't even start till two?

forget really waking up is hard to do."

"Thank you Roswell!" Max screamed out, while everyone began to cheer.

"Encore, encore!" Maria screamed out.

"Sorry hun, but no." Michael told her. Serena walked up to Max.

"So... teletubbies huh?"

"MARIA!!!!" Max and Michael called out.

[b]An hour later... [/b]

"Time for presents. Liz, Goten would you come here please?" Maria shouted. Goten followed by Liz came up to the counter. "Here open mine first." Maria handed them each a gift. Liz got a musical jewellery box, that she had given Maria as a child.

"Hun, isn't this the gift I gave you?" Maria nodded.

"Open the box." Inside was engraved 'Liz Parker, my best friend. Never forget who you are, love Maria." Liz gave her a hug.

"Thanks Ria. Its great!" Maria gave Goten a collection of crystals.

"There for good luck, and help to centre your Karma when you fight."

"Thanks Maria." Next to give gifts was Isabel. She gave Liz a green and blue silk Japanese style dress, and Goten a new watch. In return the each gave her a hug. Michael gave Goten Metallica's Black Album.

"Thanks bro." They figured that as Liz were each of their sisters that they were brothers to each other. The other day Michael found that the only Metallica album Goten didn't have was the black album, which to Michael was the bible.

"Liz go look at the blue electric guitar over their." She walked over and picked it up. Written on the back was 'When saving the world Liz, always remember your roots; me and music.' She ran over to Michael and hugged him so hard that he had the wind knocked out of him. The rest of the gifts were exchanged. Trunks gave Goten a new stereo.

"I know Pan busted yours, so I thought you might like this."

"Thanks Trunks." Goten hugged Trunks. He then pointed over to Liz. "I think my sis wants you now." Trunks grinned and walked over to Liz.

"Lets go into the back." Liz followed him and sat down on a couch in the back room. Trunks pulled Liz's gift out of his pocket and handed it to her. She opened. In side was a ring, a pure platinum band with a peridot stone. In graved in it was 'you are the light that lead the way.'

"Its beautiful. I just want to know why people keep buying me gifts that are engraved?" She slipped the ring on. "Hey it kinda matches my pendant."

"Yea, I guess it does, but I heard you like green so..." He trailed off when Liz kissed him.

"Thank you. It means a lot to me. Now come on we have a party to get to!" Liz and Trunks went back into the cafe, knowing that Liz's next birthday wouldn't be such a carefree one...
