Thanks to xmag. samantha, and Alisha Dubose for reviewing. I'm gland you like it, because I'm having fun writting it.
xmag - No, that wasn't Michael and Maria in the last chapter. I know it's confusing, but the next few chapters should answer all of your questions.
Chapter 3 - The Twilight Zone
As soon as Michael and Maria got outside they knew something was wrong. The first and most obvious change was that when they got to the chamber it was night time and now it looked as if it were in the middle of the day. The other thing was that Maria's Jetta, which is what they came in, was replaced with a different car that neither of them had seen before.
"What in the world?" said a very confused Maria. "What happened? Why is it daytime, where we in there that long? Where did that car come from? And where is my car for that matter?"
"I would have to say that the 'stupid alien thing that didn't do anything' did something." said Michael, mocking her earlier statement, which received a glare from Maria.
"We should probably go and see if we can find out something about what happened." he said.
"Go? Go where?"
"I don't know I just figured, since we are obviously still in Roswell, the first place to go would be the Crashdown. Maybe the guys will be there."
"They are going to be so mad we didn't consult them first."
"Well, they might be able to help us find out what happened."
"Alright, but I'm telling them you made me do it."
"Whatever. Let's just go."
"I hope you are not suggesting we take that car? Because it does not belong to us and we have no idea whose it is." stated Maria.
"If you have a better idea on how to get into town I would like to hear it. And since when do you have aproblem stealing? It didn't bother you to take the crystal." said Michael smugly.
"First off, I did have a problem takeing the crystal, but I knew it was some alien thing. This is completely different, we would be stealing from an innocent person."
"Look, how about this when we get into town we'll get someone to let us borrow their car and then we can bring this thing back. Does that sound okay?"
"I guess I can deal with that. I just have one other question, how are you going to start it? Cause I doubt you have the keys." said Maria.
"See this is when being an alien comes in handy." Michael stated proudly.
As they drove into town both Michael and Maria noticed the town had changed a lot. Luckly, the Crashdown was still there and looked exactly the same. They walked into the Crashdown hoping their friends would be there and they weren't in the Twilight Zone or something. Little did they know what was about to happen.
As soon as they set down in a booth, Maria, started talking, "Michael, I'm really scared. What do you think that crystal did? Everything is different."
"Not everything is different the Crashdown is the same." Just then they saw Ava standing at their table with long brown hair and dressed as a waitress in the usual alien apron and antenna. Despite the fact that they were both completely confused they couldn't help but laugh at her.
"What's so funny?" she asked, while wondering why her friend had decided to lengthen her blond hair.
"What's so funny is you wearing that. You look so stupid." Michael said.
"Hey, shut up, Jerk!" both girls said equally offended. At this point Maria noticed Ava's hair and was about to ask why she decided to dye it, but Ava started speaking:
"I don't know why you both find this so funny all of the sudden."
"All of the sudden what are you talking about?" asked a confused Michael.
"What am I talking about? I've been working here and wearing this uniform pretty much all my life and all of the sudden you two think it's funny. That's what I'm talking about."
"Wait, what do you mean you've been working here all you life? You have never worked here before. And I should know, because I've worked here all my life." said Maria.
"What's up with your hair?" asked a very observant Michael, who had just noticed the change.
"What are you talking about, Beth, we've both worked here all our lives? And what do mean is something wrong with my hair?" she asked concerned.
"No, your hair looks fine." Maria said at the same time Michael asked, "Did you just call her, Beth?"
"Yeah, Zan, that's her name isn't it?"
"I think she's going crazy. She called me Beth and now she's calling you Zan." Maria said to Michael.
"Are you guys okay? You two are acting really strange." said the waitress. She was really starting to worry about her friends they just weren't themselves.
"Uh....I think we should go." said Michael as he quickly got up and pulled Maria out of the Crashdown with him.
"Maria I don't know what we did, but whatever it was didn't just change the town, it changed everything." said a very freaked out Michael.
"This isn't good. What are we going to do?" said an equally freaked Maria.
