Author's Note: This takes place at the beginning of season 2. Liz went to California over the summer. Please, I love feedback so enjoy
"Hey Max." Isabel said as she passed by her brother's room, "What's up?"
"Nothing much." Max said not looking up
"Let me guess." Isabel said while taking a seat next to her brother, "It's Liz."
"Yeah." Max sighed, "That and the whole destiny thing."
"Do you love Tess?" Isabel asked
"No." Max quickly stated
"Do you love Liz?" Isabel asked
"With all my heart." Max stated sincerely
"Then it's as simple as that." Isabel said looking at her brother
"But Liz doesn't see that." Max stated
"Show her." Isabel said, "And if I know Liz, she'll come to her senses."
"I don't know." Max said as Isabel left
"Trust your heart" Isabel said before she left
--------------
The Crashdown was now closed
"I haven't seen Liz since the fight." Maria stated, "And I'm getting really worried."
"Me too." Max said, "It's not like her."
"I don't know." Tess said, "Lately it's exactly like her."
"That's your opinion." Maria muttered
"Hey guys." Alex said coming up to the table, "What's up?"
"We're wondering if Liz is okay." Isabel said
"I saw her a couple of hours ago." Alex stated
"Where?" Maria asked concerned
"She picked up Oz and they left somewhere in his van." Alex said, "She seemed okay."
"Do you know where they went?" Max asked concerned
"No." Alex said, "But I'm sure they are fine."
Just then two people crashed through the window at the Crashdown
"Watch out." Max said as he covered Tess, Michael covered Maria, and Alex covered Isabel
They all quickly got up to see the new threat upon them
"Liz?" Max asked as he saw Liz very bloody and another guy on the floor, "Are you okay?"
The guy then got up quickly and pointed to Max, "Your next."
"We're not finished." Liz said flipping up and wiping the blood off her face
"Let's go." The guy said throwing a punch
Liz ducked the punch and came back with a 3 punch, uppercut, and a left hook
"Is that all you got?" Liz asked laughing
The guy quickly got angry and threw a punch at Liz, and instead of blocking it she grabbed it
"Not so powerful." Liz said smiling, and the guy threw another punch with his other hand, but Liz quickly grabbed it with her other hand
"Liz?" Maria questioned
"Oh my god." Liz said as she saw her friends watching her
The bad guy saw that Liz was caught off guard so he threw them through the glass window
"Liz." Max said quickly following where she just went
Max and the others saw Liz take out a wooden thing and shove it into his heart, and like magic it disappeared
"What just happened?" Max asked Liz, but before another word was spoken another man jumped on top of Liz
"Get off her." Max yelled as Michael shot an energy blast at him, but nothing happened
Liz threw him off of her and as the vampire was in air an arrow went right threw his heart
"Liz." Oz called out from the van
"Oz." Liz yelled starting to run in a direction of Oz's car
"Liz wait." Max stated, "What happened?"
Liz looked at Max, and was about to say something when Oz called her
"Liz, he's getting away." Oz said
Liz jumped into the car, and Oz quickly drove off
"What the hell just happened?" Michael asked
"Only Liz can answer that." Max stated
"Yeah, but does she want to." Tess added
"Come on let's go after here." Max stated jumping into his jeep, and everybody followed him
---------------
"What am I going to do?" Liz said freaking out in the back of the van
"What exactly did they see?" Oz asked reasonably
"They saw me doing the impossible." Liz stated
"They saw you kick butt." Oz smiled
"Yeah." Liz said nervously
"Just tell them you took karate class." Oz stated smilng
"That would be a good cover up." Liz stated, "If they didn't see me dust a vampire."
"You're screwed." Oz stated
"Stop." Liz said while looking around, "Their nest is here."
"Are you sure?" Oz said looking at the deserted building
"Positive." Liz said as she saw something move at the corner of her eye and went to attack it
The person quickly got up, and went to attack his attacter
"What are you doing here Spike?" Oz asked seeing the vampire
"What does it look like I'm doing." Spike stated as he threw the now dead girl to the ground
"You shouldn't have done that." Liz stated as she went on the attack of Spike
"Liz stop!" Oz called out knowing that Spike was very dangerous
"You think you can take me on?" Spike asked as Liz punched him
"Bloody hell." Spike stated as he cracked his neck so the pain would stop
Spike and Liz were now fighting
Spike would throw a few punches and Liz would block them
And Liz would throw a few punches, but Spike would block them
They were an even match until Liz got distracted
"Liz!" Max exclaimed as he saw her fighting with someone
"What are you doing here?" Liz asked getting distracted by Max
Spike saw that Liz had her attention somewhere else, so he punched her and threw her into a crate of boxes that fell into the lake near by
"Liz!" Max exclaimed as he was going to help her
"I wouldn't worry about your friend." Spike stated stopping Max from going to help the girl, "I would worry about yourself."
"We can take care of ourselves." Michael stated getting Max's back
"So you better go. Now!" Isabel stated also coming to stand next to Max, and Tess followed Isabel
Spike made a sniffing noise, and then did it again, but louder
"You four don't smell human." Spike stated pointing to Max, Michael, Isabel, and Tess
"What?" Tess asked surprised
"Hey Spike." Oz stated getting his attention
Spike turned and was hit by a car and flew into the building next door
Oz got out of the car and hurried towards Liz who was climbing out of the lake
"Liz, are you okay?" Oz asked worriedly
"Yeah." Liz said achingly and very cold, "I'm fine."
"Here." Oz stated as he took his jacket off and gave it to her
"Thanks." Liz stated putting the jacket on
"Liz." Maria shouted as the others ran after them
Maria was hugging her tightly
"I'm fine." Liz stated as she back away from Maria
"What's going on Liz?" Max asked
"I just got thrown into the lake." Liz stated sarcastically, "If you didn't see."
"That's not what I meant." Max stated
"I know." Liz stated knowing what Max actually meant
"Liz?" Oz questioned
"Hold on Oz." Liz stated
"So tell me what's going on?" Max asked again
"I can't." Liz stated ignoring the question and heading towards the building, "I have to find that guy."
"Liz!" Oz screamed as he dropped to the floor
"Oh no." Liz stated as she knew what was about to happen
"Is he all right?" Max asked checking to see if Oz was okay
"Get away from him." Liz screamed in a panic as she pulled Max off, "Get out of here now!"
"Liz he looks like he needs help." Max said seeing Oz writhing in pain
"No Max! Trust me." Liz said as she brought his eyes to hers, "You need to get out of here before it's too late."
Oz fell to the floor in pain
"Oh my god." Isabel screamed as Oz turned into a hairy monster
"What is he?" Max asked as his eyes widen in horror
"Get out of here before its...." Liz stated as Oz stood up and Liz whispered, "Too late."
The werewolf was getting use to his surroundings
"Oh my god!" Maria shouted as it got the werewolf's attention
The werewolf was now after Maria
Michael threw an energy blast at the thing that was going after Maria, but that didn't even stop him
"No!" Liz shouted as she tackled Oz before he got to Maria
"Did he touch you?" Liz asked while fighting Oz
"No." Maria stated as she was too scared to move
"Good." Liz stated as she dodged his hits, "Now get out of here!"
"I'm not leaving you here alone." Max stated
"You have to. Alien powers don't effect him." Liz stated as Oz threw her into the van's window
"Are you okay?" Alex asked Liz
"Max put you're shield around you guys." Liz stated as she achingly went into the van to get stuff
"Will it work?" Max asked
"Just do it Max." Michael commanded as the werewolf started after them
Max put up his shield and the werewolf couldn't get through
"We can't stay here all night." Tess stated as the werewolf kept banging on the shield
"Don't worry." Liz stated as she came out with weapons
"Hey." Liz yelled to get the werewolf's attention, and it worked, "Come get me."
"What are you doing Liz?" Max yelled as he saw the werewolf come after her
As the werewolf charged for her, Liz held up a tranquilizer gun and fired it at him
Within seconds the werewolf fell to the floor unconscious and turned back into Oz
Liz handcuffed his hands so he wouldn't be able to get out
"Don't get too close to him." Max stated as he lowered his shield
"He's knocked out for the whole night." Liz said as she covered Oz in a blanket that she got from the car, "Don't worry."
"Don't worry?" Michael asked about to go balistic, "He almost tried to kill us."
Liz didn't say anything as she went to pick up Oz and carried him over her shoulders
"He was trying to kill us!" Michael repeated
"How are you able to pick him up?" Maria asked knowing that Liz wasn't that strong
Liz ignored them as she carried Oz
Maria was now amazed that Liz was strong enough to pick up Oz
"You can't just leave" Tess protested and Liz still ignored her
"We need answers." Tess demanded
"I won't say this again." Liz said putting Oz in the van, "Get out of here!"
"What if he turns into that monster again?" Max asked about Oz
"He won't." Liz stated as she closed the van doors
"We need to talk." Max stated
"It's going to have to wait." Liz stated as she got in the front seat, "Good night."
"You owe us an explanation Liz." Tess said to Liz before she closed the door
"Or what?" Liz asked staring at her making Tess looked shocked, "You're going to beat me up? Well I got news for you…bring it on"
"Chill you guys." Isabel stated not liking the tension between the group, "We're on the same side."
"Can't be too sure." Tess added
"Then you better watch your back." Liz stated viciously to Tess, which shocked all of them
Liz started the engine
"Liz we can help you." Maria stated trying to get through to Liz
Liz stared at her without saying anything
"And if you need anything." Alex stated, "You know where to find me?"
Liz nodded and then quickly drove away
"She's our enemy now." Tess stated as Liz drove off
"What?! Alex and Maria asked shocked by Tess' statement
"She threatened me." Tess proclaimed
"I don't care what she did." Alex protested, "I still trust her with my life. Do any of you?"
"I don't know Alex." Isabel started
"What are you talking about she's the same person." Alex stated defending Liz
"Not since that Oz guy came to town." Michael argued back
"It's like she's a new person." Tess added, "Even a new enemy."
"What are you talking about?" Alex asked, "She's still Liz."
"Are you sure?" Tess asked
"Stop it!" Maria yelled silencing everyone, "Stop it!"
Everyone's attention was now on Maria
"Come on Alex." Maria stated as she got her keys out and headed to her car
"Where are you going?" Michael asked grabbing Maria
"I'm not going to stand around while you accuse my best friend of being my enemy." Maria stated pulling her hand away and turning around to face them
"We're not." Michael stated now seeing the tears coming down Maria's face
"Like hell you're not. "Alex stated, "Tess just said it."
"Wait you guys. "Max stated stopping Maria and Alex, "We have to stick together now more than ever."
"What do you say?" Alex asked looking at Maria
"As long as you don't say anything about Liz in front of me or Alex." Maria stated
"Well…?" Max asked turning to Tess
"Fine." Tess stated as she rolled her eyes
