Prologue
Tess lies in the bed, tossing and turning furiously. She's dreaming, but this is not an ordinary dream; it's a nightmare that seems all too real.
Tess look in horror as Lonnie reaches out with her hand to loosen the platform above Max. She struggles to break free and scream his name but Rath's grip is so tight, she can barley breathe. Tess blacks out, and when she awakes, she finds herself in the underground building the summit was held in. Rath and Lonnie crowd her, their eyes full of rage.
"Tell me where the granilith is," Rath held his hand up in the air. "And maybe we'll let you live."
"You stay away from me you freak!" Tess scrambled up to her feet, attempting to put some distance between her and the other aliens. "Where's Max?"
"Max is dead!" Rath chuckled.
"And you'll be too if you don't tell us what we need to know." Lonnie gave a crocked smile.
"He's not dead!" Tess screamed. She would know if he were dead, she'd feel it. Tess ran, trying to dash out of the room.
Rath walked towards her, and used his powers to levitate her off the ground and pin the petite girl to the wall. Lonnie placed both hands on her temples and stared at Tess, trying to get inside her mind.
"Let me in Tess," she whispered heavily. "Tell me what I need to know."
Tess shook her head and tried to fight Lonnie from entering her mind. Both girls' wills were strong, their minds fighting the other's energy. The force from the two girls was so strong it caused a reaction. The whole room began to shake as a rumbling sound erupted and suddenly a burst of lavender light exploded in the room, streaming from both their heads .The walls began to tremor causing tiny cracks to crawl up while pieces of gravel fell loose around them. The light surged through the room, knocking the three of them to the ground; leaving Lonnie and Rath breathless and Tess unconscious.
"Lonnie," Rath ran to her side. "What the hell happened?"
Lonnie looked up at him, dazed. "I don't know… she was fighting but I think I won." She looked towards the body lying on the floor and gave a cold smile.
"You found out where the granilith was?"
"No," Lonnie paused. "Something better, let's go."
Rath helped Lonnie up and the two of them ran off into the night.
Tess pushed herself up off the ground and just sat there trying to figure out what just happened. She placed her hand on her forehead and squinted from the pain. "What did they do to me?"
Tess suddenly sat up, awaking from the nightmare that had enslaved her. She found herself in unfamiliar surroundings: in clothes, in a bed, in a room that was not her own.
"Where am I and where is Zan?"
