Chapter 3 - Familiarity

San Diego

On Saturday at 9 am Liz's doorbell rang and she wondered who it could be. She wasn't expecting Isabel and Alex until 3 or 4 pm.

When she opened the door she was surprised to see Tess standing in front of her with her hand up to blast Liz. Liz through the door shut as fast as she could because she has never seen Tess this mad and was scared that Tess would kill her.

Tess still managed to get inside and Liz was still standing in shock in the living room a couple of feet away from the door.

"What do you want from me, Tess? I never did anything to you!"

"I want you to pay for what you did to Max."

"I didn't do anything to Max"

"Yes you did, you left him."

"Why do you care if I left him or not. I thought that you would be happy to see me away from Max."

"Well you are wrong, ever since you left he became more depressed be the day. He stopped working at the UFO Museum because he couldn't stand to see the CrashDown without you serving in it. He tried talking to your parents but they didn't know where you are and never even got a message about your whereabouts or your phone number. No, Maria is the only one who gets it." Tess's voice is dripping with sarcasm.

"What do you want from me?"

"I want you to pay for what you did to him."

"What did I do that would bother you? I left him so you could be with him!" Liz started yelling at Tess.

"That is the reason I am here. Even on Antar you two were dating until I came into the picture. Then you overheard my mom and Zan's mom talking about who would be better for Zan and they thought it would be better if it was me. But nooo they were wrong. After you left the palace to stay away from him so I could become his wife, the same thing happened. He got depressed and didn't care about anything anymore. And then suddenly Kivar stormed the palace and killed him, Vilandra, Rath, and Ava. Can you guess who those people were?"

Liz was too scared to answer, so Tess answered for her. "Max was Zan, Isabel was Vilandra, Michael was Rath, and I was Ava. Oh and for your information Zan was married to Ava, and Rath was married to Vilandra, so that could mean that Max and I are married, and so are Michael and Isabel."

Tess suddenly ran out the door slammed it shut, leaving Liz alone in her apartment. Liz, who was standing in the corner of her apartment since Tess 'stormed' through the door, was still standing at that spot an hour later. She didn't move at all. All these words Tess spat at her were still flying around in her head making her dizzy and giving her a feeling of familiarity. Somehow she knew that all the things Tess said had happened before on Antar. But she didn't want to believe that she was an alien hybrid like Max, Isabel, Michael, and Tess.

At 3:30 Alex and Isabel were parking Max's jeep in front of Liz's apartment. When they were standing in front of the door it looked like there was a burn mark in the middle of it. But Isabel and Alex thought nothing of it because fire doesn't burn in a circle without damaging anything else. When they rang the doorbell. They heard a scream from inside.

When Liz heard the doorbell ring she started screaming as if somebody was killing her, because she thought it would be Tess again.

Isabel recognized the voice of the scream to be Liz's so she blasted the door to get inside to protect her friend. As soon as Liz saw Isabel with her hand up ready to blast whoever was inside the room, Liz shouted: "Noooo! Don't shoot!"

Isabel lowered her hand and ran towards Liz to hug her and calm her down. Alex came in to see the 2 girls hugging. So he went to them and hugged them to comfort both his friends.

After what seemed like a long time Isabel asked Liz what had happened to make her scream. Liz told them the whole story about Tess being at her house and telling her about Antar and about her relationship with Zan, and what happened after Tess left.

"When did Tess come here?" Alex asked Liz.

"I don't know, I think it was 9 or somewhere in that time range. Why are you asking?" "Because I want to know how she could have made it here faster than Isabel and I."

"What do you mean faster than you? She could have left a day earlier than you two." "No she couldn't have" Isabel answered for Alex.

"When we left yesterday Tess was still trying to talk to Max who blew her off without even opening the door. We also saw her immediately after school ended."

"Oh, but how could she have found out were I live without getting it from you two, because no one else has my address. Not even Maria, that is also why our friendship is breaking apart." "I don't know but if she drove through the whole night and was speeding, then she could have made it here before us."

Nobody said something and slowly Liz started crying as she realized that she didn't really have anyone anymore to hang out with or to talk to about her problems. She also realized that she was overloading her schedule so she wouldn't deal about her broken heart.

Isabel and Alex both sat down next to Liz, taking her into the middle and rubbing her back and hugging her. Isabel and Alex told Liz to go to take a hot bath to relax, what she eventually did.

An hour later Isabel had set the table and had made tea. Alex just came back from the bakery where he had bought a cake, and some cookies.

As they sat down together, Alex pulled out his laptop and asked: "Liz, could you tell me again what Tess said to you?"

"Okay, she said something about the same thing happening on Antar and that Vilandra was married to Rath and Ava being married to Zan, and that you Isabel were Vilandra, Max is Zan, Michael being Rath and Tess being Ava. She also said that I was dating Zan but I overheard Zan's and Ava's mom talking about who being better for Ma... I mean Zan. They decided that Ava would be better and with that I left Zan so he could marry Ava. But instead he got depressed and that he didn't care about anything anymore and that was how Kivar could take over Antar."

Alex interrupts her "Wait a second, who is Kivar?"

"Kivar is Antarian, so are Max, Isabel, Michael, and Tess or Vilandra, Zan, Rath, and Ava. Kivar was one of a few people who formed an army against Zan. After the story Tess told me I would say that Zan's and my breakup was the cause to make it possible for Kivar to overrun the Antarian army and take over the crown. Does that answer your question?" "Yes."

The whole time Isabel was sitting there and listening to what was said without saying a word. Liz looked at Isabel "Iz, is everything alright with you?" "What? Oh, yeah everything's ok. Why are you asking?" "You looked as if you were daydreaming or remembering something." "I was remembering something... it seemed like I knew all of those things you just said, like I was there. It feels very familiar."

"Yes it does and I have no idea how I can feel this familiarity without ever being to Antar, because I am born on earth and I am one hundred percent sure that I am completely human." After a few seconds Liz continued "At least until Max healed me."

With this said they all went to bed early trying to make some sense out of it. Nobody thought about Max and his depressed state of mind. But Liz, Isabel, and Alex had different things to think about. Liz lay in bed wide awake for a long time until she decided to go into the kitchen and make herself a cup of warm milk with honey in it. She remembered that her mom would always do that for her when she couldn't sleep, and it made her feel more comfortable just thinking of her family in Roswell. By the thought of Roswell the sudden image of Max appeared in her mind. The first time they kissed, how it felt, what it meant to her, the flashes, everything that had to do with Max.

She took her mug back into her room and thought a little while drinking her milk. When she was done she lay back down and short after was drifting into a deep sleep dreaming a pleasant dream about Max and herself.
