Chapter 12:

       "So, if Darrius is Alex and he was involved in our past lives, then how much do you know about who we used to be?" Tess asked.

       "She obviously knows everything if she is essentially the universe," Max said.

       "How much do you know about yourselves?" Ananda asked.

       "Well, we have the Four Square and Max here is Zan, the king of Antar, and he is supposed to go back and save the planet from Kivar. Tess is Ava, his queen. Isabel is Vilandra, his sister, who was betrothed to Rath, which is who I am. We were sent here as hybrids to be reborn and live until we are ready to return to Antar. We have powers and that whole deal," Michael explained.

       At the mention of the Podsters Destiny, Liz began to look kind of uncomfortable. At the mention of Ava, however, Ananda got a worried look on her face.

       "Which one of you is Ava?" she asked, though it was quite obvious she already knew.

       "I am," said Tess, stepping forward to address Ananda.

       Ananda just stood there and stared at her. Silence fell on the group and all that could be heard were the crickets and the rustling of wind through the grass. 

       The girl with cinnamon colored hair, took a step towards the short blonde-haired, blue eyed Tess, and said, with her eyes never leaving Tess, "I can say nothing with Ava present,"

       "Well, that is going to make it very hard for you, since Tess is a member of the Royal Four," Kyle pointed out.

       "Ava does not deserve to stand beside you nor does she deserve to know anything," Ananda replied coldly.
