A/N: Please review everyone and please give my new fic "Together We'll Fight" a try.

Krit opened the door to his and Syl's flat, and closed it quietly. He walked into the living room and found Syl lying on the couch, fast asleep. He knew that Jondy and Zane had already left because he had phoned to tell them that he was coming and that they didn't need to stay any longer.

He walked over to the couch and picked Syl up gently, carrying her to their bedroom so that she could be more comfortable. He laid her down on the bed but the movement caused Syl to wake up.

She crinkled her nose and rubbed at her eyes, smiling upon seeing Krit.

"Hey," she said.

"Shh, go back to sleep," Krit answered.

"I've already been sleeping long enough, I'm fine," Syl said. "Did you guys find Maxie? Is she alright? The baby?"

"They're both fine," Krit told her. "Thank God we weren't a second too late though. Son of a bitch Logan tried to kill the baby." His voice was laced with unrestrained anger at the thought.

Syl's eyes widened. "How? He was actually going to harm Max's flesh and blood?"

"He had a needle full of something that would kill the baby. I don't think that it mattered that it was Maxie's, I think it mattered that it was Zack's too."

Syl looked at her own, still flat, stomach, imagining what it would have been like had it been her. "What happened to Logan?" she asked.

"He's dead," Krit said.

Syl nodded, understanding what he meant. She pulled him onto the bed beside her and rested her head against his neck. He gently stroked her hair.

"You know I would never let anything happen to you, right Syl?" he asked, out of the blue.

She blinked. "Yes, I know. Where did this come from?"

"The whole thing with Maxie. It made me realize that things can happen at any time. Zack almost lost Maxie and they were barely able to be together before someone or something tried to rip them apart. It just made me think that we need to make every second we have together count, because we don't know when it's going to end. I want to be with you for as long as I can and I want us to be happy," he said.

"I want that too Krit. I know we might not get the fairy tale ending the way our lives are but I want to have a happily ever now," Syl said.

Krit nodded. "I just want to make sure you know that I love you."

"I love you too, Krit," Syl said, and she kissed him. She took his hand and intertwined her fingers with his. "I always will."

Zack came into the apartment exhausted, but with all the food Max had wanted. She made it very clear that she had to have at least have some sushi, which was very hard to find in Seattle, but he had done it.

'Please tell me this craving phase is going to be over soon,' Zack thought. 'I haven't had a full night's sleep in days.'

Max appeared in the doorway.

"Did you get it?" she asked.

He sighed. "Yes Maxie, I got it."

She smiled at him so beautifully it made all the hassles worth it. She walked up to him and gave him a long kiss that sent shivers up and down his spine.

When they broke apart, both of their breathing was labored.

"Thanks sweetie," Max said. "I know it's hard to find this stuff but I just can't help the cravings. It's driving me nuts."

'Me too,' Zack thought. "It's okay Maxie, I know you can't help it. Here."

He handed her the food and she sat down and ate it up so quickly it was almost as if there wasn't any food to begin with. He chuckled and put away his jacket and boots. They both went into their bedroom and Zack pulled her onto the bed. Max's eyes fluttered closed the moment her head hit the pillow, but something caught Zack's eye. He pulled off her shirt and saw a bunch of little black marks all over her chest area and shoulder blades.

"What the hell?" he muttered.

The marks looked like writing, except they weren't actual letters, just little symbols. He leaned over her and saw that she had these marks over her back too. He shook her gently and she woke up.

"What?" she asked groggily.

"Max, what's this?" he asked. He ran his fingers over the symbols on her skin.

Her eyes registered shock when she saw the black marks on her skin. "Well, I didn't drink anything called "Tattoos From Within" so I have no idea what the hell it is," she joked weakly.

"Why would something like this show up all of the sudden?" Zack pondered.

"Maybe it didn't," she reasoned. "Maybe it was there yesterday or even a week before and we just didn't notice."

"No, it wasn't, I'm positive," Zack said. "I took a shower with you this morning and it wasn't there."

Max shrugged. "Well, I'm out of ideas."

"We might have to go to Terminal City," Zack said. "Maybe they have someone there who can decipher this or figure out what the hell is going on."

"Terminal City?" Max said. "Is that where the transgenics are hiding out?"

Zack nodded. "Yeah, come on."

Max groaned and got out of bed. "Great, we blow Manticore to Kingdom Come and they still find a way to screw up my life," she muttered.
