Chapter 1

June 14, 2002, 0900 AM

Journal Entry One

I'm Liz Parker Evans and this is my new journal. I'm writing this journal again to document our lives and history, so that one day the world might recognize how truly remarkable a man Max Evans is. We have sent my old journal to my parents so that they may be able to understand why we left.

We've been on the run for a month now, and it's the happiest I've ever been. I got married to Max, a week after we left, in a little chapel in the middle of nowhere. We stopped in a bridal shop where we found a beautiful white dress. When we became man and wife, it was when I realized I would be with my soul mate forever, nothing could separate us anymore. Ever since Max decided, me a small town girl from Roswell, to risk his entire existence to save my life, our relationship has been moving up and down but now we will face what the future holds together. We learned the hard way that we are stronger together than apart.

We stayed a weekend in a small isolated cabin that the others found for us for our honeymoon. The first time Max and I made love it was magical, in more ways than one. A permanent connection was formed. It enables us to feel each other's emotions. We've learned since then, that it is normal for Antarian bonded couples to have a connection form. Eventually, for strong couples some form of telepathy will be possible. The first time it happened was one of the most intense moments we had, because I could feel the love from Max and he could feel mine. We were overwhelmed by it all, but eventually we could separate our emotions from each other. An intense sharing of flashes of memories also occurred similar to what happened when Max healed me. We were then able to have a long conversation about these past 3 years.

I finally told him about Future Max and what we sacrificed to stop that horrible future from happening. He had known that I didn't sleep with Kyle that night but he still hadn't understood why I did it. At the end of my confession he told me he loved me so much, with tears in his eyes. He then told me about his childhood, how lonely he was growing up and how he's loved me ever since he saw me that first day of school but could never hope to have me reciprocate those feelings. All their plans were to hide in plain sight, never get close to anybody. That all changed on that fateful day. We then both rehashed all our feelings since he saved me. At the end of our confessions, we were both crying but with our open connection, we could both feel the underlying love that connects us. We then made a vow to always tell each other the truth. We've both finally passed the last major hurtle of our relationship. We've realized that we're both self-sacrificing but we're stronger together than apart.

After our honeymoon, Max started to get really worried at times. When he wasn't driving the van, he would get this intense far-away look in his eyes. I called him on it and he told me that he was trying to figure out a plan that would enable us to remain safe and how to stop Khivar from invading. It's always been his job to try and keep everyone safe and he feels it's mostly his fault that we're all in this situation. Thankfully none of the others have realized how worried Max has really been. With six of us in the van the mood has been upbeat for now. I don't think that everyone realizes how much danger we're really in. Max and I are waiting for that high to come down once they realize we're not on a road trip but on the run for our lives. At least, at night, when I'm in his arms I'm able to take all the worries away.

Finally, one morning Max woke up with the biggest smile on his face and an intense feeling of joy coming through the connection. Max took me to the side once the others had left the room and told me about the Granilith and everything he had learned that night. Over the next two weeks we proceeded to hash out our plan for the future and the quick trip to Roswell we'll have to make. Meanwhile at night Max would train his powers with the Granilith. We should be able to tell the others today what we've been planning. I'm excited because we should all be able to realize our dream.

In a motel, in a small town on the US side of the border with Canada, six teens are sleeping. They've reached Grand Forks, North Dakota last night. As is their routine, they settled for the closest small town with a comfortable motel to spend the night. The alarm clock rings and they all have to wake up. In room 9, Max and Liz share the room with Isabel. While in room 10, Maria and Michael are sharing with Kyle. Max and Liz wake up in each other's arms with smiles on their faces as they've been doing for the last two weeks. Isabel does her best Ice Princess impression and frowns at the scene her roommates are making. Meanwhile, Maria wakes up shivering because once again she has waken up without the bed cover which Michael has been hording on his side of the bed. Kyle just jumps out of bed directly puts on some headphones and starts doing some fitness exercise to get energized. He's thankful that he doesn't have to listen to another one of their arguments. After everyone has showered and is clothed, Max calls a meeting to discuss what they will be doing. They've been driving randomly for a month now, slowly itching north towards the Canadian border. Everyone's been a bit tense lately, waiting for the FBI or the Army to just appear from a corner. There have been no sign of them since they left. Only Max and Liz have been more care-free and the others have started to notice. The last time anyone got some real rest and relaxed was for the wedding.

After they're all dressed, they congregate in Liz and Max's room. They're both sitting down on the end of the bed. Liz is on Max's side holding his hand and supporting him. They've been thinking about this plan for a while now, ever since they found out about the Granilith. Liz is confident that the others will see the plan's brilliance instead of the fact that they've been keeping a lot of secrets for the last two weeks and longer in her case. Max is bit nervous about presenting it to the group and especially what Michael's reaction will be. He usually reacts badly when he sees that he's been kept out of the loop. When everyone is finally in the room and sitting down, Michael preempts Max.

Michael: "So you're finally gonna tell us what's put you in a good mood lately. In case you haven't noticed this is serious Max. I hope making goo-goo eyes at Liz isn't distracting you from watching for any sign from the FBI. We're still fugitives in case you had forgotten."

Maria immediately slaps Michael in the ribs and launches in her own tirade.

Maria: "Well at least they can actually take the time to relax and spend time with each other. Unlike a certain Spaceboy I know, Max takes the time to be romantic with Liz. He actually shows her he loves her even if we're on the run from the FBI. Look at how happy they've been, you could at least try to make me happy."

Once it becomes clear that Michael is going to respond and start a full blown argument, Kyle interrupts loudly.

Kyle: "Alright everyone just shut up. They're the ones who called this meeting and they're about to tell us something important. Just shut your mouth until they've finished talking. Show's yours El Presidente."

Max gives a gracious thank you nod to Kyle.

Max: "Thanks Kyle. We have a couple secrets that we've been keeping that we're now ready to tell you guys. We're sorry but we had to be comfortable with a plan to present to you guys before we told you. It could potentially solve most of our problems, so don't panic when you hear our news. It's just not our lives on the line anymore. The fate of this planet is in our hands now too, it's that important. Two years ago Liz received a visitor from the future: me. He told us that in 2012 Earth was going to be invaded by Khivar. We were leading part of the resistance against him and most of you had just died just before he got here. He used the Granilith to travel back through time. His solution though was all wrong; he thought that my love for Liz should die so that Tess would have a reason to stay. With Tess staying, we would have a Foursquare strong enough to combat Khivar. Of course he couldn't have been more wrong as Tess was firmly on our enemy's side since the beginning. Still, we have one huge advantage, we've been forewarned."

Maria immediately knows what Max is talking about and remembers how painful the Future Max scenario was to Liz. Both Max and Liz were an emotional wreck after that episode. They got back on track to be the Max and Liz we all know and love only recently. Maria is thankful that Liz finally told Max. She doesn't know though if she would've been strong enough to give up the love of your life to save the world. Wait a minute, the end of the world? Maria starts panicking again at the thought of it again but then remembers how happy Max and Liz have been these last two weeks. If the ultimate planners are that carefree then this plan must be pretty foolproof. Maria decides to wait until she hears the plan before she jumps off the deep end.

Isabel looks a bit horrified and scared when she hears of Khivar. As if our life isn't bad enough, more alien stuff gets piled on. She thinks she remembers when it happened though; it was right after Liz got back from the summer, Max was happy and confident he could get back together with Liz, he had even asked her how to serenade Liz. The next day, he was all moody and brooding, listening to the Counting Crows all the time. Now that she thinks about it, he never actually recovered from that funk until recently when he got married to Liz. She guesses that her brother never felt worthy enough after that episode and that marrying Liz reassured him that she wouldn't leave him anymore. Isabel is really scared though, the end of the world and Khivar are her worst nightmare come to life. Supposedly in her past life, as Vilandra, she was in love with Khivar and betrayed her brother which led to their deaths. Although, if she was fighting in the Resistance then she doesn't betray Max then she successfully got passed Vilandra in that timeline. If she can do it in that one, then Isabel believes that she can succeed here too. Tess though, damn her, she used and killed Alex like he was a piece of human trash. Anger starts coursing through her veins at the thought that she almost delivered us to Khivar directly. Thankfully, Liz was able to discover Tess's treachery. Isabel's confidence replaces her anger and continues to rise when she remembers that this is her brother and his wife, if they're not that worried about the end of the world, then they must really have a good plan.

Kyle now finally understands why Liz asked him to fake sleeping with her. The fate of the world literally rested in her hands. She really had no choice, Buddha help her. Poor Max, how devastated he was after seeing our staged scene. How wrong Future Max was though, Tess was never our friend, she used and killed Alex, and she's was always our enemy. Even after all we did to help her, my dad and I, she still killed Alex. There can be no redemption for Tess. Buddha always says to live in the present though. It's not time to worry yet. I decided to follow him after graduation and I won't bow out now. Anyways, El Presidente and his wife seem to have a plan. We must have faith that it will all work out.

Michael: "Are you sure it wasn't one of our enemies? The skins or a shape shifter? You should've come to us though Liz."

Max: "Yes, Liz was sure that it was actually me; he knew stuff that was supposed to happen, had my memories and he looked like an older version of me. Plus I've had independent confirmation from another source that time-travelling through the Granilith is possible."

Michael: "What are you talking about Maxwell, who's your independent source? Have you been talking to another alien? You should know Maxwell, especially you, trusting another alien is very dangerous. And what plan? You should've told me sooner, I could've worked on it with you."

He's looking at Max with a slightly disappointed and angry look. He used to be Max's best friend, two aliens alone in the world. Ever since Max healed Liz though, Max had been slowly pulling away until he finally married Liz. Michael doesn't think it was that bad since he has Maria. Still, he hasn't been able to protect Max though. First he gets taken by the Special Unit and tortured. Then he's the one who trusted and accepted Tess the fastest once she showed up because she was one of us. Then, last summer he chose Maria over going home with Max and Isabel. It was the right choice, but it still feels like I betrayed them. He had understood that he would be staying and living as a human. Finally this year, he would've liked to have been included in the search for the alien spaceship to go save Max's son. Still, at least he was able to protect Max at graduation. Without his motorcycle, there would've been no way for Max to escape after that speech. It's in Max's nature to be self-sacrificing to protect everyone else, so he's there to protect him, even from himself.

Max: "Sorry Michael but I had to get it clear in my head before I unveiled it and then I worked on it with Liz first. She's my wife and she will always come first, we're equal partners now and in this together. Anyways, wait until we give you the outline of the plan, then you can change it if we all agree."

Max looks slightly apologetic, but only because their relationship isn't once it once was, when it just was the three aliens. Now he has Liz, and unfortunently she's become the most important thing in his life.

Max: "We can't just keep running like we've been doing for the past month, because one day we'll just run out of luck and the FBI will be right there. It could just be a random passerby who has seen our pictures on the FBI website or even an off-duty police officer who has seen them. No, we need a plan to survive and win."

At this everyone's mood becomes grim because there are so many ways they could be caught that they haven't thought of. If that doesn't kill them, the paranoia will. After hearing the word plan, Maria and Kyle look at Liz; she's usually the one who does the planning. It seems like Liz is starting to rub off on Max. Pretty soon, they'll be like an old married couple, if they're not already.

Max: "Now, we have a plan that we've been developing and refining in the last two weeks that will hopefully get us a normal life and maybe even stop the end of the world. I'm not king here though, I don't make the decisions unilaterally, and I want everyone's input on this."

At this last remark, everyone rolls their eyes. Even though Max doesn't want the throne and never asked for it, it doesn't stop him from acting more King like as he gets older. Max Evans commands respect and loyalty from those that know him. Still, it doesn't stop Michael from pushing for answers aggressively. It's in Michael's nature to be impulsive and aggressive. He should still trust Max a little more.

Max: "Two weeks ago the Granilith started dream walking me. I found out it's actually a 10,000 years old sentient AI. Yes, Michael, it is the real deal; it knew where we buried the orbs. It can teach us so much about Antar and our alien side, it's incredible. One advantage that it already gave me is to unlock one new power. It's also been training me to use all my powers in the dream world every night for two weeks now. Here, I'll show you what I've learned."

Max then activates his time manipulation powers to encompass the whole room. A wave erupts from him that engulfs all the others in the room to finally stop when it's reached the four walls. Everything just suddenly slows down. Michael's foot stops tapping in mid-air and starts coming down very slowly. The coffee cup's trajectory up to Isabel's lips happens in slow motion. Kyle appears to close his eyes for a few seconds when it was just an eye blink. Max then runs to the other side of the room and hides behind Michael. He then deactivates his powers and gives Michael a tap to the back of the head.

Michael: "Ow! Maxwell! I didn't have to serve as the guinea pig. Wow though, that could be dead useful in battle. What are you doing exactly anyways? Is it super speed?"

Max: "No, it's something even more useful, I can slow down time around myself. Theoretically, if I have fast enough reflexes, I could slow down a bullet even after being fired. Still with the training from the Granilith I can hold it for ten minutes when it just surrounds me for just a couple feet. "

Michael: "Why didn't the Granilith contact any of us and why now? We could also have used some training, especially if you can actually remember it all after dreaming."

Max: "The Granilith back on Antar was an advisor to the King and held the combined knowledge of the Five Worlds of Antar. It could only communicate telepathically with the King through the Royal Seal that's implanted in my head. As for why it activated only now, it was a back up protocol, in case I couldn't reactivate it myself."

Max continued to tell them the history of Antar and the colonization of its four planets. All of them were amazed at the rich history of the planet. Liz though isn't listening, she's thinking of biology. It's easy to see why the Antarians would be interested in this planet, Earth. The humans would look like close cousins of what the Antarians looked like before the Great War according to their records. Since Earth only has limited spaceflight, the mystery of the ancestry surrounding both people deepened. Liz has a theory that maybe the effect of the Great War on the genome was greater than anyone has ever thought and they've probably had some birth problems or health problems. The hybridization of the King and his companions would be a step towards solving those problems and returning the Antarians to their roots.

Max: "Now I can unlock those powers in you but I prefer to wait until we have the Orbs of Knowledge. You'll be able to train with the Granilith directly. I'll leave it to you to decide though."

Michael: "Nah, its cool Maxwell, it's better this way. We all know it took me a long time before I had any control. If I lost control during a battle, we it would be very dangerous."

Max: "Isabel?"

Isabel: "No it's okay, I trust you little brother, and I can wait a few days to see what new power I get to torture you with."

Both aliens shiver. They still remember when she had haunted their dreams for a week because they had broken one of her toys. They don't want to relive that experience ever again. Liz, Maria and Kyle are just laughing.

Max: "Hmm... Of course Isabel. Now that everyone has had a good laugh I'll explain what our plan is. We're going to first go back to Roswell and fetch the Orbs of Knowledge we had buried. I'm going to make some more diamonds so that we have at least $20,000 in cash and we'll sell them at pawnshops along our route. It'll be less suspicious than selling them all at once. Once we have the money and the Orbs, our plan is to go back to college. The Granilith can help us make masks out of a comfortable alien material. It will feel like real skin so they won't be as uncomfortable as the ones we made out of latex. The Granilith has assured us that we can make them with earth like materials; we'll just have to manipulate the molecular structure of some items. We'll have money to buy new identities to go with our new faces, we'll be able to go to college and learn what we like. Although, learning skills that we can use in the future is recommended. We'll be able to live normally for the next four years. Don't worry though; you'll just have to wear a mask for the next four years. Parallel to our college experience we'll be learning from the Granilith at night. It will teach us everything we should've learned up until now if the plan to send us here had gone off normally. The Granilith has assured me that our alien bodies are capable of handling the little sleep, you just have to get used to it."

Liz: "During college, or afterwards, we will also be setting up a company, Antar Industries. The Granilith will provide us with some designs to advance some earth technology. We won't advance it by much but it our products will be the best on the market. We'll set up some a factory or factories in areas where unemployment has been high for the last 10 years. It'll enable us to start making a lot of money, have machinery to make alien weapons if it comes to that and raise the profile of the company. We'll be the behind the scenes owners and inventors while having someone else actually running the day to day operations of the company. Eventually we'll be able to influence some senators and maybe start diplomatic talks with the US Government since Max is technically the sovereign ruler of Antar in exile. Money talks to people in power. This is also why we're going to go to Ivy League Schools, the sons and daughters of people in power go to these schools. If we can be friendly with them and make a lot of contacts we'll have more allies when we eventually come out of the woods to the government. Of course we'll be using all those new powers and training to make the job of the Special Unit all the more difficult and if we can find a way for the Granilith to get connected to the Internet, I'm sure it will track their movements for us through the government networks."

Max: "One thing that I've had difficulty is that we have to come out of hiding if we want to win this war against Khivar. He will come here with an army ready to conquer. We need the government so that we can help them resist the invaders. The only way to do that is with an air of legitimacy. I still believe that some people in power can be reasoned with. Not all Senators or the President are corrupt, they must still believe in the Constitution. Innocent until proven guilty must still mean something to some people. Anyways if the government doesn't believe us and chooses not to help us, I'm sure we can find an adequate Plan B. We could go to the public, or quietly prepare bunkers and stockpile weapons so we can be ready when Khivar invades."

Max and Liz are amused, they're all speechless. After getting over the shock of their plan though, they all realize that it's very ambitious but doesn't seem unattainable. Most of all, they can live a normal life, or at least as normal as they can get. They'll all be able to go to college and learn what they want. There are still a lot of questions for the plan to work but it gives a very good impression.

Michael: "I'm sorry about before Maxwell, I don't know if I could've come up with a plan like this. I'm in; it gives us hope for the future."

Maria: "I agree, before today we though we would be on the run forever and now we might be able to live our lives normally, well as normal as an alien can get."

Kyle: "My prospects for going into college before leaving home were nil. I think Buddha is rewarding us for the hardships we've had to endure for the last few years. Yes, I will follow this plan of yours."

Isabel: "Wow, you two put a lot of thought into this. Is there any way we can get Jesse involved though?"

Max: "I'm sorry Isabel, we've thought about it but the Special Unit already knows that we can change appearances thanks to Nasedo. I'm sure they still have all our families, even Jesse under surveillance; if you were to approach him our whole cover would be blown. I'm sorry, you're my sister and you know I love you but Jesse didn't want to come. Maybe, this was just too much for him."

Isabel breaks down completely and Max pulls her into a hug. She thought that she had found the one in Jesse but she realizes that their relationship was rocky from the start. She had been denying the truth to herself for over a month. She met him when she was still getting over Alex. He had to find out the truth about her by accident after their marriage and to have the FBI coming after you; it was too much for him. If he loved her enough he would've come with them on the run. Even Maria and Kyle came, even if they were not being chased. After composing herself, Isabel agrees to the plan.

Max: "Alright then we should leave for Roswell now; it'll take a couple days to get there. Don't forget anything in your rooms."

Michael: "Wait, Maxwell, if we're going back there, shouldn't we plan a diversion. Maybe get sighted here or you could heal some people and leave some handprints."

Max: "You're a genius Michael, if I heal some kids from a hospital, the FBI will be all over this area. I did say, we were gonna help people when we left Roswell, it's time I started now."

June 14, 2002, 1100 PM

Max and Michael were sneaking down the hallway, trying to find the children's ward in Altru Hospital, which was in Grand Forks, the closest town over. This was the third building they had tried to find it in and they all hoped this would be the last one. Isabel's job was to distract the security guard and erase all the tapes. The others were all waiting back in the van parked in the back of the hospital.

Max: "Geez Michael, couldn't we have picked up a map at the receptionist's desk."

Michael: "We had no real reason to be there, this way we're less suspicious."

Max: "Sure Michael, two guys trying to find the children's ward in the middle of the night in an empty corridor. Not suspicious at all."

Michael: "Shhh… You're going to get us caught. Ah here we are, told you I could find it."

Max: "Sure, this is only the third building we've checked. I hope you remember the route to go back."

Michael: "Don't worry Maxwell; now let's slip by the nurse's station."

Both aliens crouched down low while trying to make as little noise as possible and started slowly making their way past the nurses' desk. They were mostly hidden from view but for that last part before they could enter the children's ward. Michael used his power to make a stack of reports fall on the floor. They heard grumbling and they both rushed into the ward. They see two rows of six beds with sick children in them. They're both affected by what they see. Sometimes even modern medicine can't help. At least these children will now have a chance at a full long life.

Max: "Alright, these should all have the worst conditions. Make sure to help me towards the end, I'll be dead tired."

Michael: "I got it Maxwell, go."

Max reaches over to gently wake up the first child, an 8 year old girl who looks very pale and has lost most of her hair. Max places his hand on her chest and looks directly into her eyes. He sees the cancerous cells which are concentrated in her chest but have started to spread to her other organs. Max carefully controls the alien energy he sends and destroys the dangerous cells. He then just as carefully tells the body to grow new cancer-free cells in their place. He uses his energy to accelerate the growth of the new cells. All this happens on an instinctual level, at the same time he's been getting flashes of her life. He sees her dog, her mother, the first time she rode a bike… Suddenly Max takes a deep breath and takes his hand away. In its place is a silver handprint. The little girl looks at Max with big wide eyes.

Sarah: "Is my mommy here?"

Max: "No but you'll be able to go home with her tomorrow, go back to sleep. Everything will be alright."

Max then puts his hand on her face and puts her back to sleep. Max goes to the next bed, a boy and does the same thing. Over and over again, he heals the children. When he gets to the last three, Max is stumbling into the beds, he can hardly keep his eyes open and has blurry vision, but he wants to heal them all. Michael is holding him at the end, placing him next to the kids and positioning his hand on their chests. Finally, after the last one is healed, Max collapses. Michael picks him up and hides behind the door. He then makes a metal tray fall on the other side of the room. The nurse on duty immediately rushes into the ward and Michael slips out. Ten minutes later and he's laying an unconscious Max down on the middle seat with his head in Liz's lap. Liz is worried but she knows it will only be a matter of time before his energy is replenished and he wakes up. Keeping him close reassures her that he's still alive. The entire affair has taken two hours but it was a heck of a diversion. In the end Max healed a dozen kids which had practically no chance of surviving their illness. Kyle starts the van and they leave the fastest way towards Roswell. They did a very good thing tonight.

Next chapter has a lot more action and we see a Stargate character appear. It is 75 finished so I should be able to post it in a couple of days.

Thanks for reading.
