Chapter 5

A/N: I know, I'm evil for leaving you like that (again) lol. Anyway here is the chapter that explains it all! I really hope you like it! Please, please, please review! : D

Max looked up, startled from the gentle, confused voice that belonged to Alec. She stood up hesitantly. "What are you doing here?" she choked out. A tear was rolling down her cheek, and Alec unconsciously wiped it of her face.

"I want to know about this letter..." he said, revealing the crumpled letter than was in his hand.

"I..."- Max looked down at the letter. "Alec let me explain you.. you have a sister." She said, trying her best not to cry more.

"I know that." He said. Max motioned for him to sit down beside her.

"Where do I begin? Well, I heard of a lead on your sister, she was my best friend at Manticore.

She wasn't in my or your unit but we used to have training together a lot. Ben saw her a few times and they just clicked. Her name is Everest 'cause she's so tall" said Max, chuckling slightly because she named Everest.

"And so how did you lose contact?" Alec asked, concerned.

"Everest..."- Max began. "Well after I burnt Manticore down, I saw her... and she was running with me, we were both stopped by a car. A woman got out and told us that she was willing to help us. I told Everest to get in the car and I told her to come to Seattle after everything cooled down. And that was the last I saw her or heard of her." She continued, sadly.

Alec wrapped an arm protectively around Max as she looked down at the baby in her arms while she sobbed.

"How is she my sister?" he asked once she stopped crying. "Everest has the exact same DNA that you have. Plus, she looks like you a lot." Max replied.

"So what was the relation between you two?" asked Alec.

"Like I said, she was my best friend. I told her stuff that I couldn't even tell Jondy. Well she's also like my sister since she's Ben's sister too. But Ben wasn't in our unit when we were really small kids, so he was like our adopted brother." Max said. She sighed as she remembered everything that she and Everest had gone through.

Just then Max's beeper rang, breaking Max and Alec apart. Max looked down at the number.

"Logan" she whispered.

"I thought he was with Asha," said Alec, obviously jealous. Instead he hid the jealousy with his Manticore mask and raised a cocky eyebrow.

He couldn't tell Max that he loved her; he was just a brother to her.

"He is, he just probably has some news for us" Max said getting up.

She sensed the jealousy in Alec's voice. Max looked through the corner of her eye and found Alec gazing fondly at her.

Max blushed as she turned around and caught his eye. They stood there for a few seconds and then Max broke the gaze, blushing like a red tomato.

'He's so cute' she thought.

Finally she broke the intense silence by asking, "Do you have your cell phone?"

"Nope" replied Alec. "Then I'll go to Foggle Towers anyway." Said Max, as she walked down the stairs and climbed on her bike.

"I'll come with you," said Alec.

When they got to Foggle towers, they climbed up the stairs (they weren't fans of elevators since they got stuck last time and Alec's mobile saved them) and barged into Logan's apartment.

What Max saw standing there made her suck in her breath. Jennifer gurgled in her arms while she looked at Alec then back at the woman standing in front of her.

"Surprise!" cried Everest in happiness.

Max handed Jennifer to Alec and hugged her long lost friend. Everest then looked at the baby in Alec's arms.

But when she saw who was holding it, she freaked out.

"BEN?! I thought you were dead!" said Everest, walking over to where Alec was standing, to hug him.

"He is dead, I'm Alec a.k.a 494, his twin brother." Said Alec not knowing what to do.

"494? You were Elisa's first breeding partner!" said Everest hugging him.

Alec became surprised. When she let go of him, he took in the tall really tall, slim figure in front of him. She had dark wavy, dirty blonde hair ( just like his), which fell to her shoulder.

She had light gray eyes(not like his) and full lips(just like his).

Everest looked a little bit like a twin sister. But she was 7 inches taller. Yes she was taller than Alec! The tall guy!

'So this is Everest' he thought....

A/N: I really hope you liked it. I hope this explains all of the confusion. PLEASE REVIEW:D! btw: isn't Jensen Ackles so cute?! He's the guy who plays Alec if u didn't know:p
