Liz woke up, after a hour of endless sleep. She stood up, with the help of the door standing steady. She walked over to the desk, and looked to the desktop. There on the table lay a yellow card folder with no dust covering it, that stopped her breath. Liz held her chest for a moment, regaining her breathing and looked again at the letters on the side. Liz read once more 'MAX' in red letters. She held her breath for a moment, and opened it. Max's whole life was in these folders, his adoption papers, and even pictures from the last school dance.

Tess was stoking him! Even before she came to their school, she'd been watching his every move. Liz took the folder and placed it in her jacket, and clung to it. She looked at the rest of the desk over to make sure that there was nothing else, then turned only to get her wrists grabbed. Liz strained to get free, then looked into the face of her holder...

Max started the jeep, as Michael jumped in. "Where exactly are we going Maxwell?" Michael asked as they speeded out of his driveway. Max only looked at the road, "Remember when I told you about the connection me and Liz had?" Max asked as he swerved to miss a dead animal on the road. Michael grabbed onto the jeep's door to keep from falling all over the place with Max's driving.

"Yeah..." he managed to say as Max kept driving. "Well, I know where she is..." Max said then looked over at him for a second, "A little..." Michael looked at Max, who turned back to the road to drive. 'I'm coming Liz...' he said to her softly, 'I'm coming...'

Liz tried to pull away, but Tess only smiled and intensified her grip making Liz tremble. "Now, Lizzie. For a girl who has a King as her BOYFRIEND you seem weak." she said with a smirk. Liz looked back at her, her eyes full of hate. "I may not be that strong with my strength, but my powers are much stronger..." Liz said cunningly.

Bingo! That got Tess's attention. She looked at her surprised, but soon recovered by replacing it by a scowl. "You have no such thing..." she said then grabbing her hair pulling her head back.

Liz yelped, then held her hand up. Sending Tess to the wall, her hand having the green lightning strips flowing down to her fingertips. "Yes I can, Bitch!" Liz yelled angrily. Tess stood up, only dazed by her attack.

"Well, Liz I guess you do. BUT that doesn't mean that they're stronger." Tess yelled pushing Liz against the wall with her power.

Liz hit the desk and chair on the harsh way to the wall, breaking her leg. Liz screamed out in pain, as Tess started to walk forward to her.

Max felt a rush of pain, and terror grip at his heart. He stumbled, letting go of the steering wheel, grabbing his head. The jeep started to veer off the road, onto the desert almost tumbling. Michael rushed over and grabbed the steering wheel putting it back on the road, then gave a quick glance at Max. "MAX! What the Hell is wrong with you!" he yelled placing his foot on the brakes. Max looked shakily up at Michael, "Michael we got to hurry, Liz is in such pain..." he said gripping at Michael's arm.

Michael took hold of Max, "Max get together and get out of the driver's side then!" Michael yelled getting out of the jeep to get to the driver's side. Max blinked for a few moments, putting his hand to his face, then started to inch his way over to the other seat. Michael jumped in and started the jeep, then looked over to a dazed Max.

"Max, where are we going? Where's Liz exactly?" Michael asked getting a bit frustrated. Max pointed to a run down building ahead, with a fence all around the premises. Michael slammed on the gas and veered strait for the structure. Max looked at the building, his eyes now open and his strength returned. "Liz..." he muttered to himself as the came closer.

Liz's eyes watered as Tess came to her, her hand still holding her to the wall. "Well Lizzie, with you gone, and my mind warps, Max will come with me back to Antar. And once again we will be royalty." Tess said in a I'll-show-you sort of way. Liz scowled at Tess, "He'll never fall in love with you..." she yelled at her, closing her eyes to conceal her pain. Tess put her other hand above her head, "Well, you won't be here to see if it works out or not." she snickered, her hand starting to glow.
