"Honey what are you doing back you should be in New York", smiled Amy

"I'm sorry Baby are you okay", asked Amy as she gave Maria a hug
"Yah I'm Fine, Liz came back with me and we're going to hang out tonight with the others, I just have to get some stuff before I go", said Maria
"Okay maybe we can get together and talk tomorrow", asked Amy
"That will be great I have to get going the guys are waiting for me", stated Maria

Isabel and Jesses House
"It's a good thing you were able to sneak back into grab your stuff", said Isabel as she walked into her house with Kyle
"Yah could you imagine explaining to my Father", replied Kyle as they both laughed
"What's going on", asked Jesse as he walked in from the living room.
"Okay", Isabel said in a nervous voice then added, "Kyle get canned food and bottles of water, there's a backpack in the closet you can put it in, Jesse honey we have to pack some clothes"
"Why", asked a confused Jesse
"You want to know about all the strange happenings", he nods, "so come on and I'll explain", stated Isabel as she walked into the bedroom with Jesse following her
A little while later a shell shocked Jesse walk out of the bedroom with Isabel, each carrying a backpack
"Okay guys I've got food, water, matches, and a can opened", said Kyle

Desert
Everyone got out of Isabels car, walked up to the rock wall face and Isabel opened it with her hand
"Woo what is this place", stated Jesse as they walked into the Pod Chamber and the rocks went back in place
"This is the Pod Chamber and the Granilith is further in", answered Isabel as they walked up to the Pods
"We walk through the Pods to get to the Granilith", said Kyle as he walked through one of the lower pods, then Jesse and Isabel also went through the lower pods
"These are the Pods that Michael, Max and I were born from you could say", added Isabel as they walked out of them
"Oh, May I ask how being here helps us find Liz", asked Jesse as he looked back at the Pods
"It kinda enhances their powers and if they can sense Liz, we can find and rescue her", replied Kyle
"Also who is this Tess", asked Jesse as Isabel opened the door to the Granilith
"Tess was one of us but something changed she became evil and killed our friend Alex to help her plan to take over our home planet", answered Isabel
"We didn't know this so Max got her pregnant, she took his baby away and we haven't seen her since but it turns out Liz saw her a couple of days ago then was kidnapped", replied Kyle
"Does this always happen with you guys", asked Jesse
"Yah pretty much", said Kyle as they entered the Granilith Chamber
"Okay something's up", stated Isabel as she looked at the discolored Granilith
Outside
"Looks like the others are here", said Maria noticing Isabels car
"Lets not keep them waiting", added Michael as he got his stuff and got out of the car
When they got to the Granilith Chamber they were as shocked as the others
"You think this could be something Tess did", asked Maria
"Who knows but we're going to find out", replied Max
"Maybe we should pile up our supplies and then go from there", said Kyle desperately wanting to do something
"Ah shit", said Michael as he got to thinking, "I forgot the Snapple"
"It looks like we're well supplied even though Michael doesn't think so", said Isabel as she looked around
"Yah we should have enough until we find Liz", replied Max as he sat down
"What are we going to do when we get back and are ask where we've been", asked Jesse still new to the situation
"We've learned to take one thing at a time and first off is finding Liz", answered Maria
"I think we should try to sense her then go from there", replied Max
"Yah at the moment that's the only thing we can do", said Kyle as they set in a circle but to no avail they couldn't find her. Trying not to sound hopeless as they tried to think of what to do.
"It's two am, if we don't get some sleep we'll be no use to Liz ", stated Isabel, they all agreed and went to sleep
Day Three Saturday
Cell
In the morning there was little light coming through the window and it was raining outside. As the group got up they noticed that there was a little food for them near the door to the cell.
"It may be only bread and water but it's good to see after over 24 hours with nothing", laughed Liz
"Here, here", replied the oldest Girl
"Well hopefully they will give us more later because between us it isn't that much", said the younger women as she split the food amongst the group.
"Tess said that you could explain about the baby she put into me that's Maxs", replied Liz as she sat on a cot
"She told you how she didn't want the baby so it wouldn't survive and she knew you love Max and there for you would love his child and except him. The baby went inside you because it sensed this and it went in you for a safe haven, also so it could become part of you and no longer be part of Tess because she doesn't love him. He will be born shortly as if he has always been yours and Maxs", said the older women
"The child already knows you will love him so he will no longer be in pain and you will no longer sense his pain because it will be no more", added the younger woman
"Okay I think I can handle this the only problem will be explaining this to Max", replied Liz not so sure
Crash Down
"This is crazy", said Jeff Parker as he hung up the phone at the café
"What is it", asked Nancy Parker as she set down at the counter
"Lizs dorm room has been ransacked, she's missing and they're sending her stuff back because if she is found she can't go to that school any more. Can you imagine that's all they care about", replied Jeff in a strained voice
"Oh lord what are we going to do", asked Nancy hysterically
"I have to call the police and get all the information", stated Jeff as he picked up the phone
Pod Chamber
"What's for breakfast Honey", said Maria teasingly to Michael when she saw him looking through the cans and bars
"It a toss between canned Spam and Beans", replied Michael with a sly smile
"Don't even joke about that Michael", said Isabel as she walked into the Pod Chamber that had become a storage room
"If anything were having power bars", stated Maria
"But I was looking forward to beans", Michael teased, "Besides I have to live with out Snapple for who know how long can't you take pity on me"
"You'll live Space boy", replied Maria as they gathered breakfast and headed back in to the Granilith Chamber
Cell
"Miss so your saying that my brothers name is Michael in your world", asked the older girl about sixteen who had brownish blond hair and blue eyes
"Yes it is", answered Liz
"Why are names so different Mommy", asked the younger girl about four who had dark brown hair and eyes
"We have a different culture than the humans and Zan, Rath, and Valandra were taken in by the humans", stated the older women with brown hair and brown eyes
"What's your name again", asked the younger women to Liz
"Elizabeth Parker but everyone calls me Liz", replied Liz
"Could you please tell us how you met our children since we don't now their new lives", asked the younger women with brownish blond hair and blue eyes, the older women nodded at the idea
"Of course but could you tell me your names", asked Liz
"My name's Ralla and this is my daughter Rasta", the youngest women said when she pointed to the oldest girl, "and this is Queen Kanah and her daughter Mana", as she pointed to the other two
"Will you please tell us about Rath, Zan, and Valandra, so we can help them when they come to save everybody and make the transition easier when they come home", added Kanah
"You want to take them to Antar", asked Liz with sadness in her voice, as they nodded
"Zan is destined to be the ruler and Rath to be his advisor", replied Ralla wondering why Liz seemed upset
"Well I'm sorry but I don't know anything or understand Zan, Rath, or Valandra and for all I care you can screw destiny", said an irritated Liz
"What do you mean that's my grandchild in you and you are to be the Mother and Zan is the Father", insisted Kanah
"I think I know what she means", stated Mana
"Mana this is an adult conversation so be quiet, destiny is a very important thing to us and you treat it as if it were nothing", yelled Kanah
"Well for one this is Max Evans child not Zans and destiny is crazy, Tess being destined to be with Maxs forever and that's never going to happen if Max is happy. For one Tess is evil and Max is good so I don't think that they will be together anytime soon and second if Tess dies I don't think Max will go to hell", retorted Liz
