Tess began to come conscience of everything around her. The light was so bright her vision was blurry. When her eyes adjusted to the light she noticed Max, Michael, and Isabel tied up, and beaten. She was also tied up and, blood was dripping down her head. Even though Max, Michael, and Isabel were conscience she still knew they were alive.
Isabel started to move. "Iz" Tess called. Isabel weakly looked at Tess. "I'm going to try escaping...". "You really shouldn't try that, Ava. You don't know what I may do to the other's if you do" Nicholas said. "My name is Tess". Nicholas just shook his head. It was funny watching them. They use to be so powerful. No one stood a chance against them. Now, they were clueless teenagers.
Nicholas noticed Max and Michael start to wake up. "Oh, great. King Zan and his second are up" Nicholas said. "Why don't you just kill us. Now 's your perfect chance" Michael suggested. "I rather not kill you now. I get more fun out of watching you suffer" Nicholas responded. He clapped his hands startling all of them.
Nasedo and the group of skins came waking into the room. Ready to do whatever Nicholas ordered. "I'd like to give you a little history lesson on how you were killed. Vilandra, or, is it Isabel now. You were a slut. You were with practically everyone. You met Kavar and you helped him gain control. You're the one who got everyone killed" Nicholas explained. "I don't believe you" Isabel said. "I don't care that you don't believe me. I'm just telling you what happened. Now, who should I kill first. Nasedo, any suggestions"? Nicholas asked. "How about Max. He was the one to die first on out planet".
Nicholas walked up to Max and began to torture him. Max wasn't even screaming or trying to fight back. He stood there already lifeless. "Max"! Tess screamed. Nicholas was starting to infuriate her even more. Nicholas stopped and said "He's no fun. He's not even screaming". Nicholas walked over to Michael ready to do the same to him. Tess closed her eyes and concentrated. She refused to let any of them die.
Suddenly this new power came over her. This new type of energy. She thought she was going into a mindwarp but, it felt much bigger than that. When Tess opened her eyes, a ball of fire filled the room, engulfing everything in its path. When Tess let go of the energy she had created everything except Michael, Max, and Isabel disappeared. A feather- like material was floating around. "What happened"? Tess asked confused. "You saved us". Max walked over to Tess and embraced her. Michael and Isabel also hugged each other. They were all grateful that they were alive, and thankful that they had Tess.
Max, Isabel, Michael and Tess were in Max's room. They were talking about their future and what they planned to do. Even if Nasedo did turn out to be evil everything he told them was probably true. "So, did you hear the new Sheriff is Maria DeLuca's father" Michael commented. "Yea, but, he said he wasn't going to bother with any of Valenti's old cases" Max mentioned. "I feel bad for Kyle. He has no mom and now he has no dad. Who's he going to live with"? Tess asked. "I heard Amy DeLuca wanted to adopt him" Isabel said. Tess giggled. Maria and Kyle hated each other and now they would have to live together. "Are we going home"? Michael questioned. He'd been thinking about going home ever since he realized he wasn't from Earth. It wasn't like there was anything he'd miss. All he had was a drunk foster father that beat up on both him and Tess. "I think one day we'll go home. When we're ready to fight Kavar, and ultimately rule" Max said. "As long as we stay together we'll be fine. We'll be able to handle anything" Isabel added.
Tess and Max kissed each other, which made Isabel a little disgusted. "Okay, we're leaving you two alone". Isabel dragged Michael out of Max's room. When they were in her own room she couldn't help but, ask "Do you believe what Nicholas said, about me being Vilandra"? "No, but, if it is true it doesn't matter. You're Isabel now and you'd never betray us" Michael answered. Isabel was relieved that Michael didn't care. She'd been thinking about what Nicholas said but, now she felt so much better. Michael kissed Isabel. comforting her.
