Chapter 6

Langley came that day to find out what Max wanted to talk about. So, Max, Liz, and Langley were at Max's apartment.

"So what is so important that you wanted to talk about, that I had to come here."

"Liz is pregnant."

"It has finally happened."

"What do you mean by 'it'." – Liz

"Nascedo and myself were your protectors. There is a prophecy that is on our planet. Nascedo and I were told to let the prophecy happen, but Nascedo didn't want it to happen."

"What's the prophecy?" – Max

"The prophecy is that the Royal Four would be sent to another planet and be almost like the inhabitants of that planet just more advanced. The Royal Four are supposed to fall in love and mate with an inhabitant of that planet and have children. And if two of the royal four were to mate, they could not produce any children because it is one of the reasons why you were all put into the pods so that this prophecy could take place."

"So, I don't have a son with Tess."

"No, you don't. You can't."

Liz was slightly relieved to hear the Max didn't have a child with Tess, but then she felt sorry for Max because he has been on this quest to find a child that he thought that he had for so long. She knew that he was also sad, to find that there wasn't any baby to began with, that Tess just wanted to go back to Antar.

Max was fighting his own little battle inside his head. He couldn't believe that Tess had mindwarped him into thinking that she was pregnant, just so that she could go home. And then there was his son, no wait he didn't have a son. He always felt has if he had betrayed Liz from the moment he had slept with Tess and when he found out that she was pregnant, he felt worse. He then wondered what else had been a mind warp. Max was so angry by this time that all he felt like doing was to get Tess back for what she did to hurt not only him, but Liz and the rest of the people that he cares about. But then he looked into Liz's eyes and for some reason she just calmed him. He took a deep breath and continued talking with Langley. "Langley, I have a question why did Nascedo tell about the destiny?"

"Because Nascedo was Tess' father and he didn't want the prophecy to happen because he wanted Tess to be the Queen."

"What about the Book of Destiny?" – Max

"That was for your previous life. And you fulfilled most of that. You married Tess but you weren't married long enough to have produced children. You were killed right after you got married."

"Oh."

"I have a question. Will this baby have powers?"

"Yes. The first that is born to you (Looking at Max) and a human is the next heir to the thrown. Also the mother of that child would be the queen."

Liz was looking down, but when Langley said that she was now the Queen she had to make sure that she heard that right.

"So I'm the Queen."

Langley just nodded.

"Liz, are you ok?"

"Yeah, I think so."

Max nodded. He still was not sure if she was ok or not. He knew that she was shocked, but he decided that they would talk about it later after Langley had left.

"(To Max) I'm just a little shocked, but I'm getting over it, thanks. Langley, how long will I be pregnant?"

"I'm sorry, but I don't know because with Max be half human and you being full human, but because Max changed you when he saved your life, you are not exactly fully human, I don't know."

Langley looked at his watch and it shows that he would have to leave soon to make his flight back to Los Angeles.

"I'm sorry, but I have to leave to get my flight."

"Okay." (Walking him to the door)

"(At the door) Max let me know if anything happens or if you have any other questions? I wish that I could have helped more today. Max there is one more thing that I need to tell you."

"What is it?"

"I really don't want to worry you, but now that the heir to the thrown is on its way. You might want to keep a look out for anything out of the ordinary."

"You mean Khivar?"

"Yes."

"Could he be able to tell if Liz is pregnant from Antar?"

"I think he can."

Max took a deep breath and looked at Liz. Liz looked up at Max and she just knew that their lives are going to be very different.

Langley left and Max walked back over to Liz, sat down and held her. "Liz it's going to be ok, I promise, I won't let anything get you or our daughter."

Liz pulled away a little and looked at Max. "How did you know that we are having a girl?"

"Because for the past two weeks I've been having dreams of you and our daughter."

Liz smiled and moved back into Max's arms and fell asleep. Max kissed the top of her head and picked her up and carried her bed.
