This is kinda like the Episode 'Crazy' from Roswell and a few people come into Roswell.
Chapter 6
Max and Liz was sitting on the bench, Max had one leg resting on the ground while the other leg was resting against the table while Liz was sitting in between his legs, reading her notes and making some notes beside them.
"How is Tammy?" Alex asked Isabel from where they were sitting at a table, further away from Max and Liz.
"She's fine I guess, she's sleeping through the night more, much to relief of Max as he can feel her emotions." Isabel explained and Alex winced.
"He must love that." Alex stated and Isabel smiled slightly.
"No, he hates it actually, at first, it freaked him out cause Tammy was all curious about the emotions and it turns out that she receives emotions from him, kinda cuts into Max and Liz's time." Isabel explained and Alex shook his head.
"Are you sure that she's your sister and not Max's daughter?" Alex asked and Isabel nodded.
"She's most definitely our sister, we just know. I think Max was her protector as well as her brother in our past life time, it would make sense that she called out for him when she first came." Isabel stated and Alex nodded, thoughtfully.
"It would make sense, now if we just could find out why Liz was in the flash and if you knew her in your past, that would make things a lot more easier." Alex stated and Isabel nodded.
"It's been driving me up the wall trying to make sense of it, it makes sense why I felt like I knew her when I first met her but for the life of me, I can't figure out how important she was to us."
"Hey." A female voice stated, both Alex and Isabel looked up to see a blonde standing in front of them; she was staring at Isabel.
"Hey, you new?" Isabel asked and she laughed.
"Yeah, I'm Tess Harding." Tess stated and Isabel motioned to the seat across from her.
"Take a seat." She suggested and Tess smiled.
"Thanks." She sat down; she opened her yoghurt and poured some sugar into it, much to the astonishment of Isabel.
"I do that too." Isabel exclaimed and Tess looked up at her.
"Really? Don't you just hate it that they don't put enough sugar in them?" Tess asked and Isabel laughed as she nodded in agreement.
Max looked down at his girlfriend who was busy taking notes, he smiled; she was certainly adorable when she was in student mode. He ran his cheek over her hair, enjoying the softness of it against his skin, she smiled as she looked up and he bent down to kiss her, enjoying their feel of their lips together.
"How's Tammy?" she whispered and he smiled.
"I think she got used to the feeling I get whenever I kiss you that she just ignores it now, she is still curious about the feeling I get when I'm school though." He explained, she smiled before looking back at her notes while resting her head on his chest; he continued to play with her hair as he looked at her notes as well.
"How do you do it with Liz?" Michael asked as he and Max headed into the kitchen.
"How do you mean?" Max asked.
"Maria wants more from me." Michael stated and Max looked at him.
"You mean…?" he trailed off and Michael looked at him, meaningfully.
"Would I be here with you if she was?" he demanded and Max nodded as he opened the fridge.
"It's not like there's a handbook." Max stated and Michael nodded.
"I know but she is bugging me about being more romantic and thoughtful." Michael explained and Max handed him a glass as Michael took a drink from the carton.
"Women like surprises, you know, like a flower in the middle of the day or a note in her lockers. Liz loves those kind of things so maybe Maria would like them." Max suggested.
"How do you know women so well?" a female voice asked, both of them spun around to see a small blonde standing behind them, she had curly blonde hair and light blue eyes.
"Who are you?" Max asked, not once recognising her. He felt a flicker at the edge of his mind but it stopped when Tammy placed a hand on his leg, causing him to look down at her with a smile. "Hey sweetie." He greeted, leaning down to pick her up and settle her on the counter.
"She's my friend." Isabel stated as she came out of her bedroom.
"I'm Tess Harding." Tess introduced herself.
"This is my brother Max and our friend Michael." Isabel stated.
"And this is Tammy." Max stated as he grabbed a cup of juice and handed it to Tammy.
"Is she your daughter?" Tess hissed out and Max looked up at her, startled and confused. Startled at the suggestion that Tess thought Tammy was his daughter and confused about Tess's reaction.
He opened his mouth to say something when Tammy spoke up.
"Liz." Max looked down at her, stunned.
"What did you just say?" he asked, she looked up at him with a sweet smile before looking at the backdoor and held out her hands.
"Liz." She stated, there was a knock at the door and Michael opened it, revealing Liz.
"Hey Liz." Michael greeted, Liz smiled as she stepped in only to look confused at everyone's reaction.
"What?" she asked.
"Liz." Tammy stated again and Liz looked at her with a stunned look before looking at Max.
"Did she just?" Liz asked and Max nodded.
"Your name is her first word." Max stated and Liz smiled as she hurried over and kissed Tammy's cheek.
"How do you mean first word?" Tess cut in and everyone turned to her, startled, forgetting that she was there.
"Tammy is our sister Tess, she was recently abandoned by our parents, Max and Liz found her a while ago and this is the first time she spoke." Isabel explained as she looked at Tammy.
Tammy looked at Max with a smile.
"Max." she stated and Max smiled.
"You are getting clever!" Max told her as he lifted her up and hugged her tightly.
"So, how come you are here Liz?" Tess asked and Liz looked at her, confused.
"I came by to see Max, I wanted to let you know that I'm covering for Maria as well so I'm getting off later than expected." Liz told him and he nodded.
"Sure, the movie is on a later time and as it's Friday, we don't have to worry too much." Max told her and she nodded. She leaned up and kissed him on the lips before kissing Tammy on the cheek as the Jetta beeped its horn.
"Better go before Maria gets antsy." She told them, Max nodded as he kissed her once more before letting her go.
"So, you and Liz are together?" Tess asked and Max nodded.
"Yeah." He stated with a dreamy smile before shaking his head. "I better go and finish my homework, coming Michael?" he asked, Michael nodded as he grabbed a packet of crisp before following Max into the bedroom.
Tammy looked up at Tess with serious dark eyes before running over to Isabel and hiding behind her, tingling started in her hands and Isabel let out a silent gasp when she realise this.
"Tess, why don't you go back into my room, I'll be through soon." Isabel stated and Tess nodded as she headed back into the bedroom, Isabel looked down and saw silver handprints all over her legs. "What's wrong Tammy?" Isabel asked; Tammy looked up at her before looking back where Tess had left before turning around and walking off into the living room, leaving Isabel confused. Isabel looked down at her legs and saw that handprints fading and her mind becoming clearer, she shook her head with a small frown covering her face as she headed into the bedroom, wondering what just happened.
"What do you think of the new gal?" Michael asked from where he was sitting on the desk chair, Max looked up from where he was sitting on his bed.
"Who? Tess?" He asked and Michael nodded and he shrugged. "Don't have anything to think of her at all." Max informed him.
"Did you get a funny sort of flicker at the edge of your mind?" Michael asked and Max looked up.
"Yeah I did but it stopped when Tammy touched my leg, why? Did you?" Max asked and Michael nodded.
"Yep, it just stopped after you looked at Tammy." He explained and Max shook his head.
"This is getting to weird." Max sighed as he rested his back on the headboard.
"Maybe we're just reading too much into it?" Michael asked and Max shrugged.
"I don't know, let just be cautious around her from now on, Isabel doesn't seem to be too worried about her but Tammy…" Max started and Michael looked up sharply.
"What about Tammy?" he asked and Max sighed.
"I don't know, I'm getting this funny feeling from her, the only thing, I can't identify the emotion." He explained, there was a knock at the door, both of them looked toward the door as it opened and they saw Tammy peek her head in. Max smiled. "Hey sweetie, come on in." Max stated, she came in and shut the door behind her before hurrying over to the bed; Max leaned down and helped her up onto the bed.
"Has she stopped changing things?" Michael asked and Max nodded with a laugh.
"Yeah, she finally stopped changing things much to the relief of mom. Now she is starting to talk, mom might put her into school soon." Max explained and Michael nodded as they both continued with the schoolwork while Max handed Tammy a note pad and a pencil for her to draw with.
Soon Michael rubbed the back of his neck, he looked up at Tammy and paled when he saw the drawings she had made.
"Maxwell." Michael stated, Max looked up from his work, he looked at Michael only to look at Tammy, he gasped when he saw the drawings; they were the drawings that they found on the caves.
"Oh hell." Max whispered and Michael nodded in agreement, looks like Tammy was remembering more of their past.
"What is up with moon doggie?" Maria asked when she stepped by Liz behind the counter, Liz looked up at her.
Max had called them a few minutes ago; Maria had answered the phone and could tell that Max was worried about something. Liz looked around before leaning into Maria.
"Tammy was drawing the same drawings that we found in the caves." Liz whispered and Maria's eyes widen in shock.
"Are you serious?" she demanded and Liz nodded.
"Yeah, Max is a bit worried as he and the rest didn't remember the drawings when they were that young and especially when it was put there before they hatched now Tammy drew them without seeing them, it just proved that the drawings is very important." Liz explained and Maria shook her head.
"Six years old and she is showing things that the rest never, this is not good Liz." She whispered and Liz nodded in agreement.
"I know, Max is going to try and see if he can talk to Tammy, let her know that she can't make those kinds of drawings in public." She explained and Maria nodded.
"It's cute how you and Max were Tammy's first words." Maria stated and Liz smiled.
"Yeah it is, Max thinks that now she has calmed down slightly and is now speaking, they are hoping to enrol her into school." Liz explained as the bell went and she headed over to the counter to grab the orders, leaving Maria shaking her head.
Sure a lot of revelations being made tonight.
"What?" Liz asked, from where she was sitting between Max's legs, Max looked down at her. She was staring up at him with a questioning gaze in her eyes.
They were both sitting on the lounger with the covers around them as they stared up into the sky when Liz noticed that he seems distracted.
"I don't like Tess." Max stated, knowing what Liz meant.
"What is wrong with Tess?" Liz asked as he looked up into the stars.
"I don't know, there's just something about her that put me off her. Like she's not who she seems." Max explained and Liz looked at him.
"Max, do you think you are reading too much into it?" Liz asked and Max shook his head.
"There's this gut instinct inside of me, telling me that she is not what she seems, plus it doesn't help I always feel this sort of flicker at my mind, like someone is trying to force their way into it but can't." Max explained, Liz sighed as she rested her head on his shoulder and they both stared at the stars.
"I tried to get into Max's mind but it was like there was a block preventing me." Tess explained to Mr. Harding and he sighed.
"Tell me about the 'sister'." He implored and Tess shrugged.
"She is about six years old, has brown eyes and brown hair." Tess told him with a shrug. "Why?"
"She sounds like Shila but she is dead, I made sure of that before the ship crashed, the last thing we needed was her to go around meddling with destiny." He explained and she nodded. He sighed before walking off, leaving Tess standing in the living room, staring out the window.
