As Tess begins to fly the ship

Max watched from behind Tess as she taped on the panels. "We're going back, to earth." Max says. Tess turns. "No. We can't." She says back. "She's right Max, if we do, we'll just get caught again." Isabel agrees. "No. There are loose ends that have to be taken care of. Things I have to do." Max explains.

Tess looks at him, deciding what she's going to do. She has complete control of the ship. She's the only one who can drive it. "All right." Tess agrees. Sighing they head back to earth.

On Earth

Liz and Maria where still in the CD. It was day-time now. Liz sat on the bed. "I don't know Liz." Maria began. "What if they got hurt." She cried. "Do I care?" Liz said evilly.

Maria looked up, with tears in her eyes. "Ever since you became all alien-ish, you've been so weird, what's wrong with you? Max is the love of your life, and now you're just gonna let him die!" Maria snapped, harshly. Liz seemed unmoved by her friends tearful cries.

"Maria..." Liz began, stalking around her, fondling the objects placed on selves. "The thing you don't understand is Max and I, we're more than just connected. I know things about him, his weakness', his strengths. I know things about his powers that he didn't even tell his sister." Liz smirked. "What are you saying?" Maria asked. "I guess what I'm saying is..." Liz moved quickly in front of Maria.

She snatched her up by her neck. She was dangling off the ground. "Max was never the good guy, aliens we're never the heroes. I was." Liz snarls. "L-Liz please." Maria gagged. "No. I don't think so. I saved you from their dumb plans. I saved so many, and did I ever get thanks? No." Liz smirked. Then as a light began to appear under Liz's fingers, at Maria's neck.

The door burst open. "Hi, Liz." Max called. "Max?" Liz turned, still holding up Maria. "What do you think you're going to do to her?" He asked, teasingly. "Kill her, I suppose." Liz shrugged. "Why?" Isabel broke in. Tess grabbed her arm. Shaking her head for her to be silent. "You're not gonna harm her." Michael assured. "Oh? You seem very sure about that. But what you don't get is that Max created my powers... and since his are the strongest, well..." Liz dropped Maria, shooting Michael back into the wall. "No!" Isabel cried, running after him.

Max took the moment to take Liz by surprise. He snatched her, and whipped around. "I'll be back in a second." Max assured, dragging Liz and him out of the room.

In the room

He let her go. She stalked up to him, rubbing her hand on his chest. "All you have to do, is let me give you one single moment of pleasure... and all those bad dreams, will be washed away." She seduced. Max closed his eyes hard. He grabbed her hand and picked her up. Smashing her into the wall. Taking his face to hers. "I never loved you, and you never made me happy. You were nothing but a pawn in my plan." He dropped her. "B-But I felt it, you wanted me." She cried. "I wanted Tess, and what she is. I just forced myself to see something in you that never existed. Goodbye, Liz." He said. She sat on the floor, against the wall, confused and dazed. She watched as Max lifted his hand to her, and shot her in the heart. She was dead.

He walked back out into the room. "Okay, I'm done." Max smiled. He took Tess into his arms, passionately and seductively kissing her. Maria watched in horror as they made out briefly in front of her. Then they parted. "Ready?" Max asked. They all nodded. "Okay, then lets go." Max said, leading them away.

From the sky

Maria watched as the ship took off. It sped through the sky, at speeds she couldn't even comprehend. The gut feeling that this was the last time she's ever see an alien filled her soul with a terrible fear.

As time past

Tess flew them all the way home. An army awaited them, with their weapons drawn. Once Max and the others showed their true faces. The army bowed at their feet. Parting like waves upon the sea.

Max and the others took on their former names. King Zan took back his throne, with his wife, and Queen at his side. Rath led the army as General, and councilor. Vilondra became the princess once more.

They ruled for the rest of their lives, in countering many a foe. There were wars, famine and drought. Kivar had left the planet in ruins. The royal four having to pick up the pieces and rebuild an entire civilization.

Although they ruled, they were never well liked. They were called horrible names and people scorned them. They believed that they should have come sooner before the wars, and famine, before the numbers of dead had risen to more than half the population.

But Zan's blood said he ruled as absolute leader. No one could defy him, and no one ever managed to get his throne again. Not until his death, when his son became ruler, Zan's son would pass away, tragically. Vilondra would rise to power, then later her children would rule.

But before all of this, came the war that most though futile and idiotic. The war against Earth.

As Queen Ava had said before, Earth would pay for all it had done. And they did. Antar came upon them ruthless, and with out mercy.

They ruined crops, and killed leaders. Then it was like taking candy from a baby. Zan added Earth to his many conquered people.

The humans nothing more than a baby race compared to the Antarians, learned much from them, and eventually sought out freedom of their own. Zan denied them it, and under contract, Queens and Kings to follow would also deny them their freedom. Earth would become the largest colony of Antar, and their greatest natural resource. Never realizing that their own foolishness was their greatest down fall.
