Title: The X6's surprise

Author: Gamegirl 452

Pairings: Max/Alec I would tell you the rest of them but that would spoil my fun!

Rating: PG-13 (for violence, swearing and sexual content that comes later).

Summary: What if not all of the X6's were not originals? Then what would they be? Where do they come from? And what will it do to the X5's who find out?

Disclaimer: I do not own Dark Angel or any of its characters. If I did, I wouldn't be writing this I would be writing the scripts for the fourth series because by now that's what we would be on because I would have never taken off air. I would have put Max and Alec together a looooooong time ago. Alec would have had a much bigger role in the second series. Alec would now be in my house instead of off somewhere.

But I don't own them James Cameron, Fox and the rest of those lot do. Shame.

A/N: This is only my second fan fiction ever so please read and review and please be gentle.

"What, what has happened with Jondy, what has he done to her, if he has so much as hurt a hair on her head he gonna wish he never met me cause I'm ." Max was cut off by Alec.

"Calm down Max, Biggs has done nothing to hurt her, but you know we have Rachel." Alec told her.

"Yeah, so." Max told him, just as she said those words it dawned on her, "No, they can't, I mean they can but, it's not right. Why them? Why couldn't it be somebody else, why did it have to be Jondy and Biggs?" Max babbled.

Alec walked over to her and gave her a hug, Logan didn't know what had just happened, one minute he sent Max and Alec on job, it obvious that they hate each other, the next they find out Manticore cooked up a daughter for them and Max finds out the her sister and Alec's best friend also have a child together cooked up by their lovely friends at Manticore.

And to top it all Alec was now hugging Max, tears are running down her face and Alec is trying very hard to keep it all together for her. They had seemed to have forgotten all about the fact that their child was standing in the room.

They broke apart, as soon as Alec had removed his arms from around her she felt like a part of her was missing. She missed the warmth, the strength and the gentleness in those arms.

Max shook her head; she shouldn't be having these thoughts. Maybe she was going into heat.

Alec couldn't believe it, he had hugged Max, and they had a child together. In some strange way he was now related to Biggs in some strange twisted way. (Alec has a child with Max whose sister is Jondy who has a child with Biggs. Get it, Alec didn't.)

"I've got to go and phone Jondy" Max told Alec.

Alec nodded, "Okay, I've got to phone Biggs and Ben" Alec told her, but as soon as Alec had mentioned that last name he knew it was a mistake.

Max stopped dead in her tracks; did he just say he had to call Ben?

FLASHBACK

BEN (gasping): Don't leave me here. Don't let them take me.

MAX: Ben, I can't carry you. We'll both get caught.

BEN: I know.

(He looks at her pointedly and her face falls.)

MAX: Ben, I can't.

BEN: Please. You know what they'll do to me. They'll put me down there with them...the Nomalies. Please.

(Max looks at him tearily while he silently begs her.)

MAX: Tell me about the Good Place.

BEN (smiling): Where no one ever gets punished.

MAX: And no one gets yelled at.

BEN: And nobody disappears. And when you wake up in the morning, you can stay in bed as long as y--

(Max snaps his neck. She softly drops his head to the ground and, as the helicopters get nearer, begins to sob.)

PRESENT

Max turned to face Alec, with unanswered questions in her eyes.

"No, not my twin brother Ben, no sorry Max but he's still dead." Alec explained,

Max didn't seem that relieved about that news.

"No, in some strange way Krit and Sly's child was called Ben by Zero and Tinga." Alec told her.

Now Max was even more confused, Ben is alive, but dead. Tinga is in L.A. somewhere and she escaped with them in '09 along with Zero.

Alec took a deep breath, he hadn't wanted to tell her all this at once, and not at this moment in time but Alec couldn't ignore those eyes, filled with unshed tears, questions and not a lot of answers.
