Chapter 25:
Serena got out of her day dream when Zan leaned in and whispered in her ear, "What are you
thinking about, it better be of me naked". Serena turned in his arms and smiled at his beautiful
face. God she loved this man. "No I was thinking about last week, at the dinner party about
what max said, I haven't been doing my job protecting you guys", said Serena lowering her
head. Zan tilted her chin up to make her look at him, "Not protecting us, baby you came back
in time do protect us, please your father is the one not oding ihis job, I love you don't you
understand you are not in this lone, we are going to protect each other, we won't lose this time,
because I think we finally got it right this time", said Zan smiling down looking into her lovely
violet eyes. Man she wasn't of this earth no human had beautiful eyes like that, violet who knew.
"Got what right?", asked Liz. Everyone was standing looking at the couple and heard what
Serena had said about not protecting them. "In the past we were with the wrong people, Max
you were trusting Vilondra, as was I and we got screwed because of it, this time we don't have
that problem, with Tess we know the deal now. Two people came from the future with
information that we need to get us through any obstacles that happens you know and besides I
think the Ten of us are strong now together then ever before", said Zan looking at the others.
Everyone understood what he was saying all this week they felt this strong pull to be together
like it was kismet or something, it probably was thought Maria. "I know what you mean it's like
we formed the v formation two people to each star. Liz and Max headed the V formation as
King and Queen of Antar", said Maria. Everyone turned around and looked at her. Something
clicked in Serena's eyes and she ran into her room that as next to Michael's. "Where is she
going?", asked Maria. Serena came back as soon as she said this and pulled out a long tube.
She opened the tube on the ground and motioned for everyone to sit down. Kyle looked at her
and could see the wheels turning in her head. He wondered what was up. "Serena what is going
on?", asked Kyle. "Maria just gave me an idea, she said that we fit into the V formation right?",
said Serena looking at everyone ot see if they were listening. "Yeah so?", asked Michael.
"Look the four square was made on Antar it was believed to be the four most powerful people
on Antar, but that couldn't be right, if two out of the four were tainted", said Serena. "Yeah
so?", asked Kyle. "Alright f they were so powerful how come we died, how was Kivar able to
do what they did, I got the answer", said Serena. Max looked at her and motioned with his
hand to continue. "Max you saw the royal seal right, it was the V formation in your head right?",
asked Serena. "It looked like this right?", asked Serena showing everyone the map of Antar
and the surrounding planets. Everyone was amazed at the picture. "Yeah that's it", said Max.
"Okay then why does everyone keep on saying that the symbol of the four square is the
strongest, It can't be the V formation would have to be, we got our energy from the planet its
everyone still living on Antar does, so the strength of power wouldn't be from the four people
standing in the four square but rather from all of us taking a position in the V formation", said
Serena. Everyone looked at her like she lost her mind. "Serena I'm not following how does this
explain what Maria was talking about", said Max. Liz's eyes looked at Serena and it clicked in
her mind too. "The V formation is stronger then the four square, we make up a v formation, Zan
coming into our group completed it, don't you guys feel the pull, its like we are meant to be, like
its" "Kismet", everyone said. Everyone looked at each other and looked surprised that
everyone answered the same thing. "We are finally with the people we are supposed to be with
and nothing can mess that up anymore, we got rid of all the obstacles that destiny threw us, from
Tess to Zan and Alex dying.", said Serena. "But I don't understand there is ten people but Five
stars how will that work", asked confused Michael. "Like I said we found our soul mates", said
Serena. "So?", asked Michael. "What is a soul mate Michael? It's two people, two parts of one
whole. Its your other part, your partner in crime so to speak, so that means that each pair of
soul mate would govern each star of the V formation like we are supposed to, in fact everyone
get up get next to your soul mate, and form the v formation, Max and Liz are at the front", said
Serena. Everyone did as they were told and each pair held hands facing each other. The all felt
the humm of power, then the light show began. Stars and green and purple lights swirled around
them. Max;s seal came forward as well as Liz's. The swirling symbol appeared on the ground
before them and opened open. In a voice that clearly wasn't speaking English said, "It has
begun, the prophecy has been fulfilled". Everyone stared in shock. They could now hear
everyone's thoughts and feelings. They were connected in a deeper level. "What the hell was
that?", asked Kyle. Ava was staring in shock. "It was us having the upper hand, we can know
share each other's gift, we are a part of a whole, we are completed", replied Liz. The handprint
on her stomach glowed brightly. Her son understood. She knew he did. He was to be the next
king he would also find his V formation too. Max looked at the hand print and covered Liz's
belly. He felt the connection right away and knew the battle this time would be on their terms.
This war would finish here on Earth.
Maria looked at her family eating in Serena's kitchen. She smiled at that her family. After the
connection of everyone in the V formation, they talked about what exactly this meant and how
will this help them. "So this means we are more powerful?", asked Kyle while eating his slice of
pizza. "Yeah, I mean, we have each others gifts now, healing, blasting, freezing, everything, that
means that we can fight harder now", said Serena. Maria spoke up "Do you think Kivar knew
about the V formation?". "Nah, I believe he thought that the four square was the most powerful,
like everyone else thought, that's why he tainted it by getting Ava and Vilondra on his side,
which I hate to say it wasn't that hard of a task to do", said Serena wiping pizza from Zan's
chin. Everyone chuckled at his disgruntled look at Seren'a mother hen act. "DO you think Kivar
knows about this V thing?", asked Maria. "NO I don't think so, because like everyone else on
Antar they believe strongly in the power of the four square, that's why Ava was cloned, I didn't
want to I wanted to send Amelia down instead, but the queen mother told me I had to send it
down this way. I mean Callie had to send it down, Callie being my past self. "I was going to ask
you about that, I mean why would you send Ava instead and why the rest of us weren't sent?",
asked Isabel. "Me and Zan, might not be King Zan and princess Vilondra but we were royalty
too and was brother and sister to Max and Lonnie, why were we not sent?", asked Isabel. "I
can answer that, the experiment in cloning was very new, Amelia and Me were not sure if it was
going to work but Amelia had a vision of us getting killed by Kivar and we had to try, anyway,
like the rest of Antar we also believe that the four square couldn't be broken that this was the
most powerful force on Antar. That's why Amelia didn't fight for Zan, even though he was her
husband and why even though everyone knew that Rath was married to Layla they wanted him
to leave her and marry Vilondra so that the four square's ties could not be broken. Vienna and
Xavier that's your name on Antar were not part of the four square. What's ironic is that even
though they didn't send you down, you got sent down atleast your souls did. Thank god the
queen mother ordered me to send both Avas because at the time I didn't know that my sisiter's
soul would be part of the supposed royal four", ended Serena with a sigh. "I know I can't
believe it" said Ava. "Oh well now we know something that Kivar doesn't", said Michael. "I
think its romantic", said Maria after a long pause. Kyle looked at her and rolled his eyes, "How
is betrayal, treason, and death romantic?", asked Kyle. "Not that part, the part of us being
together in every lifetime, we fight for this love, its got to mean something. I mean is our love that
important, it must be. I think Zan was right, we finally got it right in this lifetime and timeline,
even Future Max wanted to change things but he was wrong, you Liz and Max and everyone in
this room are proof that soul mates exist", said Maria. Serena looked at her and smiled, "She's
right you know, my powers are not fully there yet, but I remember seeing us on Earth during the
Salem witch trials you know. We were together then too, but destiny kept getting in the way.
Fate can do but so much", said Serena. "I thought that Fate and Destiny were the same thing",
said Zan. "NO its not, destiny changes, it gives us obstacles and it is the one thing that tests
Fate. Fate is what is meant to be, it makes us recognize our soul mates, but we have free will,
we make decisions that can be bad or good and those decisions effect the end results you
know. God or whoever is in charge of this thing put us together or at least in close quarters and
he or she gives us the right to chose whether or not we are going to let destiny interfere.", said
Serena. "Wow, that is wow, I don't know what to say to that, it makes sense though, how do
you know that?", asked Liz. "Its just something I believe in you know, but having these powers
of mine helps too. Like for instance let's look at the day that Max saved you he could have
made the choice to leave or not save you which would have maybe resulted in you guys not
being together and basically Maria, Kyle, Valenti, and Alex not knowing your secret. Or let's
change the person, would you have saved Maria if she were the one to get shot, or would have
Michael been the one to risk his life to save her. You know each decision has a consequence,
that's why these future versions of ourselves keep coming back to change it, change destiny."
Said Serena. "Yeah before he disappeared he told me that we make our own destiny", said Liz.
"Yeah we do, we can change our destinies too", said Serena. "Alright all this talk about life, is
tiring let's do something else", said Kyle. "Umm let's go to this club out in Santa Fe they got a
singing thing we can do, we can win money for it too", said Maria. "Cool, I haven't been
clubbing in a long time", said Zan. "Alright let's roll, we can meet here at 8 o clock and drive
down there", said Isabel. "I got to pick out an outfit in all these boxes, I should be ready
though", said Serena. Zan got up and kissed her mouth gently and said, "You're my soul mate, I
love you". "I love you too", replied Serena. Everyone walked out the door and got into there
cars, while Michael and Serena waved them good bye. Michael shut the door and felt the hairs
on the back of his neck stand up. "What's wrong?", said Serena looking concerned she felt his
nervousness in their connection meaning the rest of the guys felt it too. "I don't know I feels like
someone is walking on my grave", said Michael. Serena looked scared when he said this. "I
don't know Serena its like I feel something it wrong or something is coming", said Michael.
"Your right we have to stick together and always train, I think that the fight with Kivar is coming
soon", said a sullen Michael. Serena gasped and hugged Michael tightly. Michael's arms came
around her and held her just as tight. One tear flowed down her check. The first battle is
coming.
