Thank you for the Reviews! Moreover, here is the next chapter, hope you like it!
"Damn it!" Max cursed out as he slammed his hand on the table, startling everyone. "Now she thinks we're going to hand her over to the F.B.I!" Max snapped out, frustrated.
"I can't believe we never heard her come in." Isabel mused.
"We were kinda busy talking than taking any notice of our surrounding and that is a bad thing, I mean, it could have been anyone that came in." Alex explained and it hit everyone just how lucky he or she were that Liz came in. Max saw that Liz had left her book bag behind and picked it up just as the bell rang, signalling end of school.
"She might have gone home but she might still be around here somewhere. I'll go and find her." Max explained as he shouldered her bag.
"What if she bolts again?" Maria asked and Max shrugged.
"I have a feeling that she'll talk to me so let me see her first because if she sees us all together, it might seem like we are ganging up on her and freak her out even more." Max explained as he exited the room, leaving everyone behind to simmer in their thoughts.
XXXX
Liz found herself sitting in the library; she was wiping away her tears that were rolling down her cheek. They knew! What were they going to do? Were they going to hand her over to the F.B.I? she couldn't go through with it again, not the pain of seeing someone she love taken away from her in front of her. She made up her mind. She was going to have to run away. She was half expecting Pierce to come striding in the doors and dragging her back off to the white room but she wasn't going to let that happened, no matter what.
There was a noise behind her and she turned, she saw Max standing behind her, holding out her book bag.
"Hey, you dropped this." Max explained and Liz nodded as she took the bag and shouldered it as she stood up. Max stopped her from leaving with a hand on her stomach, Liz looked up at him with fear in her eyes. "We are not going to tell anyone." Max promised and Liz closed her eyes as tears slipped from her eyes. She opened them once more with relief showing in her dark eyes.
"Thank you." She whispered, then she wondered why, they weren't going to use her were they? "Why? You are not going to use me to do things for you are you." Liz asked, warily and Max shook his head.
"Liz, Michael, Isabel and I are just like you." Max whispered and Liz's eyes widen in a hopeful shock.
"Really?" she asked, hope and excitement colouring her voice.
"Yes." Max promised and Liz squealed lightly as she hugged Max tightly and Max hugged her back with the same emotions. They had found each other.
"SHH!" a voice hissed and they both pulled away from each other to look at the source and found the librarian looking at them with annoyance in her eyes.
"Sorry." Liz whispered with a sheepish smile and a shrug. The lady smirked lightly as she walked off, shaking her head in amusement. Liz turned to Max only for something to catch her eye, she noticed that the wall above the bookcase was acting weird, so she walked over to it with Max following her, wondering what was going on. Liz came to a stop at the wall and stepped on the ladder.
"Hold my waist Max." Liz whispered and Max held her waist while she reached up, she looked around before waving her hand over the wall and a sliver handprint showed up. She, cautiously, placed her hand on it only for her hand to slid right into the wall and feel something. Curious she pulled the object out and saw it was a blue/sliver metal book.
She stepped down and both, Max and Liz sat down the floor and looked at the book that rested in Liz's hand.
XXXX
Jeff was walking down the alleyway when he felt someone following him, he, quickly, ducked into a corner and saw the F.B.I walk past him and came out of his hiding place. The man turned around and saw Jeff standing behind him.
"I was wondering if Pierce would send one you lackey to follow us. Now you are here, I want you to give him a message for me thanks." Jeff stated as he lifted a hand and placed it on the Man's chest, watching the steam come from his hand and the man dropped to the floor.
XXXX
Tess was in the Crashdown when Max came striding in, her breath caught in her throat when she saw Max smile at her with love in his eyes.
"Hey Max, did you find Liz?" Tess asked, trying very hard to keep the distain out of her voice and Max just smiled.
"Who cares about her?" Max asked and Tess's heart leaped. "Come on, I have a surprise for you." Max whispered with excitement as he tugged on her hand, Tess smiled as she let herself be pulled up but stopped.
"We need to tell the others." Tess stated and Max shook his head.
"No, we never get any time alone, its always with the group, we need this Tess. We need to be alone." Max whispered and Tess smiled.
"Okay." Tess agreed as they both hurried out of the building. Tess looked over her shoulder and saw Maria staring at them in confusion but shrugged her shoulders as she turned back to the hatch. "Where's the Jeep?" Tess asked.
"There was something wrong with it so it's the shop, they gave me this rental." Max explained as he opened the door and let her in.
XXXX
"What do you think that is about?" Max asked and Liz shrugged.
"Answers about our past hopefully." Liz muttered as she opened the book to read it... only to that it was in a different language.
"Damn!" Max hissed out as he looked at the book. "We finally get answers and they are in a different language." Max explained and Liz giggled lightly as she turned the page, surprise to see engraving of the faces in the book. Max and Liz were next to each other on the bottom while Isabel was above Max and Michael was above Liz.
"How the hell did they know what we would look like?" Liz demanded as they stared at the book then turned over the page to see Liz and Max holding hands and Liz had a baby in her stomach while Isabel and Michael were holding hands and she had a baby in her stomach.
"I hope this doesn't mean why I think it means does it." Max asked and Liz shook her head.
"I'm not pregnant, we have to mate the human way to have sex/babies. You can't just get pregnant without sex." Liz whispered her answer. "And I sure hope this doesn't mean I have to get pregnant soon." Liz whisper and Max nodded.
"Can human and Aliens have sex?" Max asked and Liz nodded.
"Yes, my mom was human and I'm pretty sure that my parents had sex although I rather not think about it." Liz hurried out hastily and Max nodded in agreement, thoughts of his parents like that freaked him out too.
"So, how come you didn't have any brother or sister from your mom and dad?" Max asked.
"My mom was pregnant when she was killed." Liz explained simply and Max nodded, accepting the answer.
"What does this mean for us?" Max asked and Liz shrugged.
"It looks like we have to be together, you and me, Michael and Isabel but I'm not letting any book tell me what to do." Liz exclaimed.
"But, what if I want to be with you?" Max asked and Liz threw a glare at him.
"Max, you are with Tess." Liz stated and Max sighed.
"Liz, I've told her that we were over but she won't listen, she keeps saying that no one or anything is going to get between us." Max explained and Liz looked at him.
"What does she mean by that?" Liz asked curiously and Max shrugged.
"Your guess is good as mine." Max admitted as both of them rested their back against the bookcase, looking at the page of where the four couple were together, with the babies.
XXXX
"So where are we going?" Tess asked and Max just smirked.
"It's a surprise." Max replied and Tess giggled.
"Can't you just give me a hint?" Tess asked as she leaned in and kissed his neck.
"You better that stop that." Max teased.
"Or what?" Tess challenged, Max just swerved to the side and both of them unbuckled their belt as Tess straddled his lap, they both kissed but it felt different, he tasted different. She pulled back from him and looked at him.
"What?" Max asked and Tess moved to her seat.
"Nothing." Tess replied. "We better get to the surprise, I can't be late for my shift." Tess explained and Max started the car.
XXXX
"Can we go somewhere else and talk?" Liz asked. "It would be easier to talk without worrying about eavesdroppers." Liz explained and Max nodded as they both stood up. Liz placed the book in her bag and shouldered it as both of them made their way to the jeep.
XXXX
"Who are you really?" Tess demanded to Max after a few minutes of silence and Max smirked.
"So have you have figured it out?" Naseco asked as he looked at her. "So what gave me away?" he asked and Tess rolled her eyes.
"You kiss different from Max and you have no Tabasco on your tongue. Why did you take me?" she demanded.
"Pierce wants Max so he'll have Max, beside I have a little score to settle with him." Pierce stated with a shrug of his shoulder. "Beside, you are a little bonus for him." Max stated and Tess felt a shiver run through her body.
XXXX
"So, how did you find out about me?" Liz asked as she and Max walked the desert.
"I caught you healing the mouse which confirmed it for me." Max explained and Liz nodded "So what is the book about?" Max asked, wanting to know about it as Liz had looked through it some more during the ride here. Liz rolled her eyes.
"It's about our destiny, you see, we were created and we are suppose to be together. You know, as in, me and you, Isabel and Michael." Liz explained and Max looked at her.
"And I'm guessing you don't like the idea." Max stated and Liz giggled slightly.
"That obvious huh?" Liz asked and Max shrugged. "Yeah, you're right. I just the way that I think, I just don't think that humans and Aliens should be separated. Yes, we may have abilities that some people don't but we are humans, we have emotions!" Liz exclaimed and turned to Max. "It's so obvious that you and Tess love each other, Michael and Maria love each other, Alex and Isabel seem to getting there so I just don't see why we have to drop our relationship just because a book told us to." Liz explained.
"Wow you really do feel strongly about it." Max exclaimed; then something struck his mind. "Erm Liz, I realise this might be hard for you to talk about but have you ever been captured by the F.B.I?" Max asked; Liz looked up at him with pain-filled eyes. "You don't have to talk about it if you don't want to, I'm jest letting you that I'm here whenever you are ready for it." Max quickly added in.
Liz was silent for a while that Max thought she wasn't going to talk. Liz sighed as she slumped her shoulders.
"I was only eight years old at the time when it happened." Liz started as she looked into the distance, her eyes dark, Max noticed with a pang. "My dad was out of town looking for you three so my mom took me out for a girl's day out and she took me to a fun fair, she won me a huge teddy that it was so big, I couldn't even wrap my arms around his neck." Liz stated with a small smile then it slid off her face. "Then this man walked up and my mom told me to run so I did but I got caught and knocked out. I woke up later and found myself in a white room and there was this two way window, I talked to my mom then this agent came in." Liz stopped to get herself under control.
"Agent Pierce." Max whispered and Liz nodded in confirmation and looked at Max curiously.
"How did you know?" Liz asked and Max sighed.
"An F.B.I ambushed us one night, she told us all about Agent Pierce but we didn't listen to her." Max admitted and Liz nodded.
"Anyway, he said something to my mom about me and she lost it, she flung herself at him, attacking him but he was too strong and raped her. I didn't even know what he was doing at the time. He, then, called in a few guys and they placed her on the table and cut her open. She was alive as the opened her and I could hear her scream in pain." Liz choked out. Max wrapped an arm around her shoulder and pulled her into a hug.
"Liz, did he..." Max started but Liz shook her head.
"No, I managed to contact dad through my weak link, he found me and knocked out all the F.B.I agents there were in the building, he went into my mom's mind found what he was looking for. He never told me. He, then, walked out of the building and blew it up." Liz explained and Max nodded but felt there was something she was holding back from him.
"Liz?" Max asked.
"My mom was pregnant with my dad's child when she was killed, they tried to remove the baby from her womb to turn it into a test tube baby but the problem was that, the baby can sense it's parents, so when the mother dies, it dies along with her, that why they left her heart for last. They removed her other inside so she could feel it then removed her heart." Liz whispered and Max hugged her tighter.
"So how did Maria, Tess and Alex find out about you three because I don't think it's really something you would go around telling people." Liz asked, wondering what happened.
"Tess was in the Crashdown and two men started arguing, one of them took out a gun and they fought over it, it went off and hit Tess. I healed her and told her about me. Maria threatened Tess that she would go to the Sheriff because she knew that I had done something to Tess so Tess told her. We never told Alex until later on, Tess told him because Alex also threatened to go to the Sheriff." Max explained and Liz nodded.
"So if anyone threatened to go to the Sheriff about you, they get told the truth." Liz asked with amusement and Max laughed slightly.
"Guess so." Max joked back, both of them shared a smile before turning to look out into the distance.
XXXX
"Why have you kidnapped me?" Tess demanded and Max/Jeff rolled his eyes.
"I told you, Pierce won't come to me unless I have something he wants and he wants you as well." He explained.
"Pierce would just kill me!" Tess exclaimed and Max/Jeff shrugged his shoulders.
"Then you were great company." He remarked.
"Why do you want me dead? Max will just come after me and save me." Tess explained. "He loves me."
"Max and Liz are destined to be together." Max/Jeff explained and Tess scoffed.
"Please! He does not love that mousy little bitch!" Tess snapped and Max/Jeff looked at her with a cold glare.
"Trust me, you do not want to piss me off. Liz is a sweet, loveable, honourable person than you are. Hell, she's even more human than you are!" Max/Jeff exclaimed.
"Max and I love each other and no one is going to get in the way of that." Tess promised, her blue eyes dark with anger and determinacy, which caused Max/Jeff to look at her curiously, wondering what she meant.
XXXX
Max had dropped Liz in the alleyway of the Crashdown, he watched as she made her way into the backroom of her house and drove round to the front of the Crashdown and made his way into the café where he met up with the gang.
"Have any of you seen Tess?" Max asked as he looked around, wondering where Tess had gotten to, as she was hardly late. Maria looked at him, weirdly.
"I thought you were with her." Maria said and Max looked at her puzzled.
"I haven't seen her since this yesterday." Max said and Maria shook her head.
"Max, I saw you pick her up about two hours ago." Maria said and Max shook his head.
"What do you mean, I just got here." Max explained.
"Max I saw you, I saw you Max." Maria said and everyone looked at each other confused until a light hit Isabel's eye and her eyes widen which made the rest realize.
"Naseco!" They all exclaimed.
"Naseco took Tess, why would he take her." Alex demanded. Liz walked into the Crashdown with her cell phone in her hand.
"Hey guys, have you seen my father? He called me and told me to wait down here for him." Liz explained.
"He took Tess!" Maria exclaimed and Liz looked at her, confused.
"What do you mean he took Tess?" Liz asked.
"He shape shifted himself into Max and took Tess." Alex explained.
"Why would he take...?" Liz asked but trailed off when it dawned on her. "Oh no! Dad!" Liz groaned out as she ran out of the café toward her car but stopped when Max gripped her arm and spun her around.
"What's going on?" Max demanded.
"Dad is going after the F.B.I, we need to get to my dad before he gets to them." Liz explained and Max nodded.
"Okay, who's coming and who's staying?" Max asked.
"We're coming." Isabel exclaimed as her and Michael climbed into the back of the jeep while Alex wrapped an arm around Maria.
"We'll wait at the U.F.O Centre for you guys when you get back." Alex explained and Max nodded as he hopped in the driver's seat as Liz climbed into the passenger's seat and the jeep drove off.
XXXX
"Why would he take Tess?" Michael demanded and Liz shook her head.
"Because she hurt me, emotionally and physically. Dad wants to see her suffer because of that and he wants Pierce too, I'm guessing that Pierce is interested in Tess because Max healed her." Liz explained.
"There's really an agent?" Isabel asked, fear evident in her wide eyes and Liz nodded.
"He captured me when I was eight and daddy wants to kill him for that." Liz explained.
"Is he really our dad?" Michael asked and Liz shook her head.
"So why do you call him daddy if he not your real one?" Isabel asked.
"Because he's like a father figure to me and he loves me, I called him daddy for protection when I was younger, I guess it just stuck on." Liz explained with a shrug.
"How come he wasn't here when we hatched?" Michael asked.
"He was on the run at the time, you see, all four of us were to hatched at the same time but somehow the crash messed things up, you three hatched before me and all of us hatched way before the time we were to hatched." Liz explained.
"When were we supposed to hatch?" Max asked.
"When we were 18 so that we were ready to mate and conceive children." Liz said with a roll of her eyes. "Like I would." Liz stated with a scoff.
"Why didn't he just come forward and tell us who he was?" Michael demanded.
"He wanted to make sure that there was no suspicious and to make sure that you were the other three." Liz explained and everyone nodded.
"How come you were never around here?" Michael asked
"We were here but we moved to L.A then we moved back as Daddy felt a power being used." Liz said and Isabel gasped,
"So I have met you before, I remembered a girl who had your eyes and brown hair, you were sitting on..."
"The swing set!" Liz gasped and Isabel nodded.
"You looked so alone, what happened." Isabel asked.
"I wasn't adopted by daddy at the time, I was with the social service and I didn't really like them." Liz said.
"Yeah I get that but there was sadness." Isabel said and Liz sighed.
"I had this hole in my heart, you see I knew that I had a brother but I didn't know where and I was missing him." Liz said and Isabel felt her heart breaking and she placed her hand on Liz's shoulder and squeezed it gently.
"I don't know how you coped with it, I mean I had Michael and Max for brothers." Isabel said and Liz nodded.
"But it doesn't matter now, I have my family now." Liz said with a smile and all three of them smiled back at her. Max saw the police surrounding a body; he went to pull over. "No don't stop, it's not her, believe me, Daddy wouldn't kill her." Liz promised and Max nodded as he continued down the highway.
"How did you know?" Michael asked.
"Well, from what you have told me, Dad is acting like Max." Liz asked and they nodded. "Dad is leaving messages for Pierce to piece together and come after him. As Pierce is after Max, it's a bonus for dad as he knows that Pierce would never resist beside, that was an F.B.I Agent that was lying on the ground.
XXXX
"Why have you brought me here?" Tess demanded as they stood in front of the candyfloss machine at the Fun Fair.
"I'm waiting for Pierce to piece the clues together and come and get me." Max/Jeff explained.
"Max is so going to kill you." Tess smirked and Max/Jeff smiled brightly.
"He wouldn't do that. He wouldn't do anything to upset Liz." Max/Jeff assured as he looked at the lady while she was telling jokes about Aliens. He smirked. "Looks like it time for my last clue." Max/Jeff exclaimed as he focused and a bright blue beam shot up into the sky in the form of the whirlwind.
"Look!" Michael shouted as he pointed to the shape, everyone looked up and Liz groaned.
"DAD!" Liz exclaimed in frustration.
"What?" Max asked.
"He's drawing Pierce to the fun fair, dad knows I won't go near one after the last time." Liz explained.
"Why? What happened?" Isabel asked.
"Liz and her mother were captured at the Fun Fair." Max filled in while thinking fast of what to do. "We can't leave you out in the jeep by yourself, Pierce might see you." Max explained.
"She goes with you. Isabel and I will spilt up and cover more ground. Liz will have some protection if she's with you if the F.B.I spots her." Michael ordered as they all jumped out of the jeep when it came to a stop.
Max and Liz, unconsciously, linked hands as they, hurriedly, made their way through the crowd to find Tess and Jeff. They soon saw a Max look a like heading into the house of mirrors and hurried over to it only to get lost.
"Max." Liz whispered, wondering what they were going to do. Max, gently, squeezed her hand and pulled her through the mirrors until they met up with Max/Jeff.
"Dad!" Liz exclaimed, Max/Jeff turned around and saw the two of them.
"What are you doing here?" Max/Jeff demanded.
"Dad, you need to let Tess go." Liz exclaimed.
"You need to get out of here!" Max/Jeff shouted.
"Dad..." Liz started but Max/Jeff looked at her firmly.
"I won't let him take you two." He hissed out.
Tess hurried through the maze and saw Max and Liz.
"Max!" Tess called out as she slammed her hand on the window. Both, Liz and Max looked at her and sighed in relief when they saw her.
"I will get her out of here." Liz called out as she pulled away from Max and disappeared into the darkness.
"Liz!" Both Maxes shouted but it was too late. Liz hurried to Tess, following her instincts and she found Tess.
"Come on, we have to get out of here!" Liz hissed as she tugged on Tess's arm but Tess pulled her arm free of Liz.
"Not without Max!" Tess hissed back as she ran off.
"Tess!" Liz shouted but turned around when she felt something. Her eyes widen when she saw Pierce sneaking into the building and ran off before he could see her.
Liz crashed into a window and banged her hand on it in frustration when Max showed up, looking around. "Max!" Liz shouted, Max turned around and caught sight of her. He ran up to her as relief showed up all over his face.
"Liz!" Max called out "Where's Tess?" Max asked and Liz rolled her eyes.
"She ran off, she refused to get out of here without you and I lost her. I saw Pierce coming in. Max, we need to get out of here!" Liz exclaimed then looked around. "Where's my dad?" Liz asked.
"He ran off too, something about the plan heading too fast." Max explained then looked at Liz. "You have to leave." Max stated passionately, the fear of Liz being captured by the F.B.I was taking a hold of his heart once more. He placed his hand on the window and Liz copied his movement, placing her hand over his.
"Not without you." Liz replied just a passionately, soon there was a noise and Liz looked over Max's shoulder and her heart dropped.
"Max!" Liz screamed and Max turned around and saw the F.B.I guys behind them, the clown dropped providing a distraction for the couple, the clown laughed as if he was mocking the agents for trying to get in between the couple.
Max ran off in a direction while Liz followed him, they both caught up with each other and sighed as they hugged. "God Max!" Liz whispered as she buried her face into Max's chest.
"It's okay, everything is okay now." Max promised as he kissed her forehead and they heard a slam and saw Naseco still posing as Max slammed against the wall with the F.B.I behind him, Liz shook her head as the memories of her mother being slammed against the window was beginning to start up once more.
"No, daddy no." Liz whispered, Max grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the house of mirrors. "No, Daddy!" Liz screamed and Max wrapped his arms around her waist from behind as Liz fought him to get to her dad. "Daddy!" Liz cried.
Michael, Isabel, and Tess hurried over.
"What's wrong with her?" Michael asked Liz fought Max.
"The F.B.I has Naseco, she wants to go back inside." Max explained as he fought Liz. Tess came up and pinched Max in the side, which caught him off guard and loosen his hold on Liz, Liz took off full speed toward the house of mirror. "LIZ!" Max shouted and threw a glare at Tess and hurried after Liz, he soon found her curled up where the F.B.I slammed Naseco against the glass. "Lizzie?" Max asked as he knelt down beside her.
"I can't lose him Max, I just can't." Liz sobbed and Max pulled her into a hug.
"We'll get him back soon, I promise." Max swore as he rocked Liz back and forth. Michael, Isabel and Tess had also entered the building and Tess felt satisfaction building up inside of her.
XXXX
The gang had arrived at the U.F.O Centre; Liz was sitting on a chair, staring into space as she rubbed the necklace between her index and thumb. Max was stroking back her hair; he kissed her forehead before moving toward the gang.
"Why is she doing that?" Maria asked Michael.
"Naseco gave her that necklace yesterday, it's the only thing she really has of him." Michael whispered as he grabbed her arm and pulled her over to the others.
"How is she feeling?" Isabel asked as Max walked up to them.
"Scared." Max stated.
"What are we going to do?" Alex asked.
"We need to find out where Naseco is and we need to figure out what we are going to do about the F.B.I." Michael explained.
Liz had slipped out of the building, un-noticed. She needed to get out of there, it felt like the walls were closing in on her and she needed to breathe. She headed out to the back alley and looked up into the night sky, she smiled slightly when she saw the V shape stars. It was her home and it calmed her briefly. She was so deep in her thoughts, she never heard anyone sneaking up behind her.
XXXX
Max/Jeff woke up with a throbbing headache and smirked to himself as Pierce entered the room.
"Well, well, well, I finally get Max Evans in my grasp." Pierce smirked to himself and Max/Jeff gasped as he leaned himself against the wall. One hand was clutching his stomach.
He was changing back; he remembered that he had been in Max's form for far too long.
"Damn it!" Max/Jeff groaned out as his shape shifted back into his normal Jeff Parker form, much to the astonishment of Pierce. Pierce looked at the man in a stunned rage.
"You tricked me!" Pierce hissed out before storming off, leaving Jeff to wonder what was going to happen now.
XXXX
Maria looked around the building of the U.F.O Centre in confusion.
"Erm, Guys?" Maria called out, attracting their attention. "Where's Liz?" she asked with her hands in the air.
MAX! A voice screamed inside of Max, Michael and Isabel's head, causing them to bow over, clutching their heads in pain.
"Max!" Isabel gasped out in fear. "It's Liz...she's scared!" Isabel exclaimed as the pain lessened. Max straightened back up and hurried out into the back alley, he saw a van driving away, kicking up dust as it went. He looked toward the road in front of him and saw Liz's ring, he picked it up and gasped when a flash came to him.
"Take her to Eagle Rock. Don't do anything till I get there." A male voice ordered. Max dropped the ring and dropped his head into his hands as he slumped to his knees in anguish.
Liz had been captured.
