"I ain't telling you shit Khivar except we knew that Nasedo was never sent by the King and Queen. I will never tell you who the protectors are." Liz choked out even slipping into unconsciousness she tried to fight it. It took every amount of energy she had to defy Khivar.

"I can crush you my Sweet Aliza but I'm going to take my time because I know that your beloved will be here shortly and then when he does. I'm going to snap you like a twig." Khivar growled bring her closer and attempting to kiss her lips.

Liz moved her head painfully out of his lip lock reach and then spat her saliva in his face.

Khivar now angrier than he thought he could ever be at his "Sweet Aliza" let go of his invisible grasp on Liz leaving her to fall into a heap on the floor gasping for air.

"You'll pay for that Aliza."

Liz would have laughed if it didn't hurt so damn much. She felt paralyzed. 'Probably am. Like he'd ever let me out of his sight now that he knows I'm a threat,' she thought to herself. "Why Khivar? What'd I ever do to you?"
"Is, floor it," Max ordered.

Isabel had insisted on driving because she knew how emotionally unstable Max was right now but to Max Isabel was driving to slow. "Max, Valenti is following us. We can't be suspicious."

"Khivar is killing Liz as we speak!" Max yelled. "I don't care if Valenti is apart of the Special Unit. We need to get to Liz! Floor it!" He was frustrated. If he had it his way he would have pushed her out of the driver's seat and pressed the petal to the metal.

Isabel looked in the mirror to Michael, Maria, Kyle and Alex with a cocked eyebrow. Maria paled almost as if she were seeing a ghost. Michael was literally turning red. Kyle and Alex looked traumatized.

"Ok Max I'll do it," Isabel sighed. 'Why are we even saving her narrow behind she frigging lied to us all?' Then she pressed the accelerator down to the floor.
"You really captivate me Aliza," Khivar murmured kneeling beside her, her bodily fluids cleaned from his face. "Even now you're fighting for your life and you praying that your lover comes to your rescue yet again. Oh he'll be here alright to watch you die in front of his eyes again."

Liz's eyes widened. She never remembered Khivar being this cruel to her in her other life.
"Oh Aliza my sweet. Thank you for coming to me in secret," a suave Khivar greeted Aliza.

"What is this about Khivar?"

"You my beautiful love...It's time for you to prove your love for me," the taller alien said as he caressed her face and gently moved her hair out of her face.
Liz shook that memory out of her head. 'Come on Liz. Where's your invisibility when you need it?' She scolded herself while trying to concentrate hard enough to break loose of his paralysis and try to become invisible with him around teleporting was out of the question.

"That won't work," Khivar chided thinking that she was doing a mind warp but got enraged when she disappeared. Khivar growled angrier now then before. "I've weakened you Aliza! You won't stay hidden for long!" He cackled.

Liz hated herself for knowing that what he was saying was right. She may have used her invisibility but she could not move because she expended so much energy fighting to stay alive. Her invisibility shield could come down at any second. She still gasped for air. She smiled thinking about how she caught him off guard when she spat in his face.
Luckily, Sheriff Valenti wasn't tailing the young Evans' jeep and they made it to the pod chamber in five minutes later from when they had the argument.

"She's weakening," Max said as he ran into the chamber. The others followed.

"Is, you provide the distraction."

"Hello I'm not Tess. Mind Warps aren't my thing. Besides that's Khivar in there."

"Let's just ambush him," Michael growled. Hating his protective older brother so soon after the truth was revealed to them all but he hated to admit he had always felt a bond to Liz when ever he saw her before the shooting.

"We ambush, he kills her."

"We go in silent Maxwell and he still may kill her," Michael reasoned. "We need to get in there and kill him. He's got my sister in there," he barked.

"We do this my way Michael," Max said calmly which irked Michael as well as the others.

They all followed Max's lead and crept slowly into the chamber and towards the risen wall. They all looked in on the room to see Khivar ranting on to nobody. The three hybrids realized that Liz had on an invisibility shield. The three humans just thought she was hiding but looking around they saw that wasn't an option.

"Ok, you three stay here," Max ordered Maria, Kyle and Alex.

"And sit like sitting ducks?"

"No, we're going to flush him out of there and we need you to take those orbs and make a circle but leave one out of the circle. The plan is for him to run in here into the middle then the last orb get puts in place and it stuns him. It won't keep him for long but it will be long enough to disorient him and get Liz out of there."

Maria, Kyle and Alex nodded, "Alright."

"Good, Is you provide distraction. He may still have the hots for you thinking you're Vilandra," Max said pointedly.

Isabel rolled her eyes. "Great, just what I need another alien I don't remember from my past hitting on me."

Michael chuckled and Isabel along with Maria swatted him on the arm. He grumbled while rubbing his arms from the stinging.

'Liz, where are you,' Max sent mentally. He could feel her connection but it was so weak.

'To the left of the Granolith as you come in through the portal,' the message was weak.

'Stay put I'm coming to get you.'

'Like I have a choice hurry Max? My powers are weakening by the second.'

"Ah telepathy every lover's dream comes true," Khivar said as he approached the coordinates that Liz gave to Max. "Zan, Zan, Zan, you can't out smart me."

Just as Khivar said that Max appeared in the Granolith chamber alongside Michael and Isabel. "I can't but we can," Max assured his enemy. "You leave her alone now."

"Or what," Khivar challenged Max and his friends.

"Or you'll never have me again," Isabel flirted.

"Vilandra you're still as beautiful as you were back on Antar." Khivar said to Isabel. "It's been a while."

Isabel rolled her eyes in distaste.

Liz felt the paralysis lift off her and she scrambled on her hands and knees towards the hybrids she could trust. Her invisibility came down just as she reached Max's feet.

Khivar growled in anger again, "A diversion you will severely pay for Vilandra."

"I doubt that," Michael snarled.

"Oh look, Aliza, Rath is here to finally protect you and Zan." Khivar laughed. "If he's anything like he was back on Antar, he's not in control of his powers here either."

Michael growled and the room became an inferno. Max, Isabel and Liz looked at an anger ridden Michael in shock.
