Chapter 8
Liz was in deep thought for the rest of the day, wondering about what Tammy said, she remembered Max telling her when he received flashes from Tammy, someone blasted her across the room but he was sure it was a man, not a female. She wondered what Tammy could see about Tess, she knew that Tammy was not your average alien child, considering that she has been drawing symbols that she hadn't seen and sprouting off information, not to mention the fact that Max has been receiving more information about his past.
She just wondered what Tammy could see, why she was in the flash of their past life, what was the connection between her and Max and Tammy, for the first time Liz could remember, she was getting sick of all the questions and having no answers.
"What do you mean you killed Shila before we crashed?" Tess asked and Ed sighed.
"She was in the pod, she wasn't meant to come with you four but the queen wanted to bring her so that she would live her life like she was suppose to live on Antar but we couldn't afford that." Ed explained, I used my powers and blasted the pod, killing her so I don't see how she can be alive." Ed stated.
"Is it possible they could have sent down a dupe of Shila?" Tess asked and Ed shook her head.
"No, there was only one set made." Ed replied, firmly and Tess nodded.
"How do I get Max to like me? I've tried mind warping him but it doesn't work and he doesn't look my way." Tess explained and he sighed.
"You need to get Max interested and as soon as possible, do whatever it takes to get him to turn to you." Ed warned her before walking off and Tess turned and her face-harden into determination, she was going to get Max to be interested in her one way or another.
Tammy found herself playing in Max's room, she liked his room, it was fun to play in and it was even more funnier with his look of shock every time he comes in to find that everything had changed. She lifted her hand and changed the picture on his screensaver, it now consisted of him and Liz kissing, she giggled as she hopped down from the now pink computer chair and landed on bright pink with white hearts carpet and moved over to the bed and pulled herself up on it before moving over to the pillow. She was quite tired; using her powers to change a lot of things was tiring.
She laid her head down on the pillow and wondered what Max and Isabel was going to do once they saw the rooms.
Max entered the house with Liz; he had noticed that she had been a little quiet since this morning.
"You want a drink?" Max asked and Liz looked at him.
"Yeah, sure." She replied with a smile and he led her into the kitchen and opened up the fridge, he grabbed the orange juice before grabbing a glass and filling it out and handing it to her. "Thanks." She replied and he looked at her, puzzled.
"You okay?" he asked and she looked at him. "You've been quiet since this morning." Max explained and Liz nodded.
"Just a little tired." Liz told him and he reached over and stroked her hair.
"You sure?" he asked and she nodded.
"Yeah." She replied as he stepped forward and pulled her head down onto his chest and kissed her forehead, she smiled slightly before closing her eyes, she wondered how she was going to tell Max what Tammy said.
"Come on, let's go to my room." Max told her and she nodded as they linked hands, grabbed their glasses and headed over to Max's bedroom.
Max opened the door and they looked in, in a stunned shock.
"Oh my…" Liz gasped as she covered her mouth and Max shook her head.
"Every time this happens." He muttered as they took in the sight, the bed was now a rich dark pink colour, the curtains matched it while the walls were a light pink colour and Liz shook her head.
"You have to admit, she does have good taste." Liz stated as her eyes landed on the computer and she narrowed her eyes at the screen. "Where was this taken?" Liz asked and Max looked at the picture of him and Liz lying on his bed, kissing and paled, it was from his dream and all he could think was that he was very grateful that it wasn't going further than PG rated.
"Don't remember, maybe Tammy saw us kissing one time and placed it on the computer." Max lied quickly as he hurried over and switched the screen off before shaking his head at the computer chair. "This is going to take ages to get back to normal." Max informed and looked at Liz, only to see her looking at the bed with a smile.
"Isn't that just adorable?" Liz asked and Max smiled as he looked at Tammy sleeping on the bed, dead to the world and he shook his head.
"Makes you wonder what our kids will be like." Max told her and she smiled as they both headed over to the bed and sat down next to Tammy, making sure that she was comfortable.
"OH MY GOD!" a female voice shouted from her room and Max looked at Liz. "Was that Isabel?" Max asked and Liz nodded as Tammy bolted up in bed and looked toward the door.
"Uh oh." Tammy whispered and they both looked at her, wondering what she had done now.
"Tammy?" Max asked and Tammy looked at him with a smile.
"Hi Max." she greeted and he shook his head.
"Oh no you don't, what did you do?" he asked and she gave him an innocent look but he wasn't fooled by it and crumpled.
"I just changed Isabel's room." Tammy explained before looking at her hands and playing with her fingers and Max felt his heart melt while Liz bit back the giggles.
Max was definitely going to make a good father one of those days.
Once Isabel had calmed down and they were all in the living room to discuss what they were going to do about Naesco when Liz finally spoke up, she couldn't hold it any longer.
"Tammy doesn't like Tess." Liz whispered and everyone turned to face her.
"What did you say?" Alex asked and Liz looked up at them.
"When Tammy came with me to the counter, she told me that she didn't like Tess, I asked her why, she just said that Tess wasn't nice." Liz explained.
"What do you mean?" Maria asked and Liz shrugged.
"She just doesn't like Tess." Liz stated and Isabel turned to Tammy, who was happily drawing.
"Tammy." Isabel called as she knelt down to Tammy's level, Tammy looked up before smiling at Isabel.
"Yes Izzy?" she asked.
"Do you want to tell me why you don't like Tess?" Isabel asked, softly, not wanting to upset her, Tammy frowned as she looked back down at her drawing.
"She was mean to me, mean to Lilly." Tammy stated.
"How do you mean?" Isabel asked.
"She killed Lilly, sent her flying. Zan wasn't happy." Tammy stated.
"Who's Lilly?" Max asked as he knelt down beside the two girls and she smiled up at him.
"Liz silly." Tammy stated before smiling up at Liz. "Liz, Lilly, my protector with you."
"Protector?" Maria asked as she moved forward and Tammy nodded.
"They were sent to protect me, Zan because he was my brother and Lilly, the woman he loved, they were to protect me from the bad man." She told them.
"Bad man honey?" Liz asked and Tammy frowned once more.
"He wasn't nice, he killed Landra, tried to tell her that he was not a nice man but was too late." Tammy stated.
"Landra?" Alex asked.
"Vilandra, Zan and mine big sister," she stated before looking up at Isabel and reaching over to let a finger trail down her cheek. "He killed you before lifting his hand to me and a blast came out of his hand and that was the last thing I remember before waking up in a that green gooey thing." Tammy stated with a wrinkle of her nose, showing her annoyance and disgust.
"Do you remember it all honey?" Liz asked and Tammy shook her head.
"Nope, not all, I remember that another man was there, he was leaning against the wall, just watching everything. He was suppose to protect us all but he didn't." Tammy stated.
"Who was it?" Michael asked and Tammy turned to him, she scrunched her nose, trying to remember.
"Something like Visha, it's means Visitor on our planet cause he was visiting our planet." Tammy told him before turning back to her drawings and Maria gasped.
"Naesco." She stated and they all looked at Tammy once more.
Tammy felt something tugging her from the inside, confused and puzzled, she looked up and saw the necklace hanging out of Isabel's jumper.
Tammy looked at the symbol necklace on Isabel's neck before reaching over and using her powers to take it off Isabel's neck.
The gang watched as Tammy repaired the leather string, holding the pendant before walking over to Max and handing him the necklace.
Max looked at it, puzzled before handing it back to Isabel when Tammy tugged on his jumper and pointed to Liz.
"Liz." She stated and Max looked at her.
"What?" he asked.
"Give it to Liz." She protested, pointing to the necklace then to Liz.
"Why?" Isabel asked.
"Need to give it to Liz." Tammy pleaded and Max nodded.
"Okay." He stated as he walked over to Liz and was about to hand it to Liz when Tammy tugged his jumper once more.
"Put it on Liz." She explained, leaving them both looking at her then looking at each other, Liz just shrugged as Max lifted the necklace and placed it over Liz's head, letting it fall down where the pendant rested perfectly in between her breasts. "Queen." Tammy stated and everyone looked at her in a stunned shock.
"What?" Max asked as he bent down to her level.
"You, King, Liz, Queen." Tammy stated with a shrug before smiling up at them. "Can I go to play now?" she asked and Max nodded.
"Sure." He replied, still dumbfounded as Tammy exited the living room to her bedroom.
Everyone just turned to Max and Liz, who were staring at each other in a stunned shock.
