Crossover
Ok, so I'm a ROSWELL fan, besides being a STAR WARS fan. After I
watched the end of the first season of Roswell, I had an idea to do a
little Crossover.
Since the second season of ROSWELL have already begun, and I haven't
watched it yet, this fic doesn't consider the events of the second
season.

DISCLAIMER: These characters doesn't belongs to me. I'm only writing
this for fun, and I'm not making any money from it. STAR WARS was
created by George Lucas, and ROSWELL was developed for television by
Jason Katims.
P.S.: The beggining of this fanfic is the end of the last episode of
the first season of Roswell.
MAX: I want to know. Maybe if we just focus like Nasedo's always said.
(They concentrate. The orbs shoot up a blue light, and a beeping
sound, like a beacon, is heard. Another blue light floats into view,
and transforms into a woman.)
WOMAN: If you are seeing me now, it means that you are alive and well.
I take this form because it will be familiar to you, and it will help
you to understand what I am about to say. You have lived before. You
perished in the conflict that enslaves our planet but your essence was
duplicated, cloned, and mixed with human genetic materials so that you
might be recreated into human beings. My son, you were the beloved
leader of our people. I have sent with you your young bride. My
daughter, the man you were betrothed to, and your brother's
second-in-command.
ISABEL: Oh my god, Max. Our mother.
WOMAN: Our enemies have come to the Earth. You will know them only by
the evil within. Learn enough to use your skills, your knowledge, your
leadership to combat the enemy so that you can come back and free us.
And that I may once again hold you both in my arms. I live for that
moment. Help us. I love you.
ISABEL: She's so beautiful.
MICHAEL: I always knew there was something out there, but I had no
idea how important it was.
MAX: Things will never be the same, but whatever happens, we have to
stay together. It's the four of us now.
TESS: I knew this was meant to be.
MAX: No. (To Liz.) Look, everything I told you before is still true.
LIZ: Max, you do have a destiny. You just heard it. I can't stand in
the way of it.
MAX: But you mean everything to me.
(They kiss.)
LIZ: Goodbye, Max.
(She leaves.)
MAX: Liz. (Outside.) Liz. Liz, wait. (She turns to look at him, then
runs off.)
MICHAEL: (Restraining him.) You gotta let her go.
(Tess and Isabel join them.)
TESS: What happens now Max?
(Someone far away, in a car, has a little black beeper that has a
flashing pentagon on it. It is making the same beacon sound as the orbs.)
PERSON: It has begun.
(Scene after scene of different locations around the globe where the
same beacon sound and flashing light can be seen and heard.)
******************************
(Night. Interior of Max's bedroom. Max is sleeping.)
After all the excitement of the day before, Max Evans is having a very
conturbated dream.
On his dream, he sees a man standing with some kind of...light
sword...on his hands. On the floor, behind the man, he sees a
red-haired woman seeming unconscious, or dead. The man was fighting
three other humans.
Or at least he thought they were humans. They had tatoos all over
their bodies, and they were...disfigured. Max instintively knew they
were warriors.
And then one of them attacked, with some strange kind of weapon. The
man with the light sword countered the attack, and then another,
althought it looked like he was felling great pain. Max immediately
noticed why: he had a wound on the left side of his head.
While the man with the light sword had his weapon engaged with one of
the warrior's weapon, another one attacked him from his back, and he
fell. Dead.
Max woke up screaming.
******************************
(Later that night. The Evans' kitchen.)
Max is opening the refrigerator, when Isabel enters the kitchen.
"You had the dream too, didn't you?" She stated more than asked.
Max looked at his sister, and nodded. "Yes, I did...But the strange
part was that I felt real pain when the guy with the light sword died!"
"Yeah, me too. It was like we were losing one of ours..." she hesitated.
"Parents," Max finished her sentence.
"Yes. It was like he was...our father." Isabel stared at him, deep
inside his eyes.
Max embraced his sister and kissed her forehead. After a few moments
in silence, they parted.
"You know what intrigues me the most? The fact that when he died, the
excruciating pain I felt wasn't only because I've lost my father. It
was like I had also lost something deep down inside of me. It was like
we were connected somehow, and when he died, that link broke up and
instead of felling him all I could feel was a blank."
"I know...I felt it too, Max."
But Max knew there was something else on his sister's mind. He always
knew. But he didn't want to force her to tell him.
"Isabel, you want to tell me something else?"
Isabel looked at her brother's eyes, and knew she couldn't fool him.
He knew her too well. They knew each other too well. It was almost
like they could read each other minds sometimes. Almost.
"Remember when mother told us that our enemies had come to Earth?"
Max nodded.
"I think those enemies she was talking about were those tatooed man
that killed our father."
******************************
(Inside the Crashdown, the next day.)
Max enters the Crashdown. Liz is serving one table, with her back to
him, until she turns around and sees him.
"Maria, could you please bring table 6 their order? I just remembered
I have to go home earlier today." She starts to leave.
"Liz, wait!" He runs after her, until they are on the room behind
the
restaurant. Max grabs Liz by her shoulders, forcing her to face him.
"Please, listen to me."
"No, Max. I won't. This is too painful for me. I can't stand to be
near you and can't be with you."
"But you can! Nothing that happened last night changes what you and I
have!"
"No, Max. It does change. It changes everything. You and Tess are
meant to be together. You were *born* to be together!" She starts to cry.
"No, Liz. WE were born to be together. Tess and I may be *clones* of a
dead couple, but we are NOT a couple! We aren't them! We may have
their essences, but that doesn't mean we are going to be together. We
are humans too! And as humans we have the free will to decide what we
want to do, and with whom we want to be!"
"No, you were them. You ARE them. You said yourself that you have
their essence! You were in love once, and you will be in love once again."
Max ponders for a moment. "Isabel and Michael have known each other
for their entire lives, and they haven't fall in love with each other.
Even though they also were cloned from a couple."
Liz is silent for a moment. After a while she starts to leave again.
"I don't know Max...I guess I need some time to think about it."
"Wait a minute...Michael and Isabel were a couple?" Maria, who had
entered the room and listened to the last part of the conversation
without Max and Liz knowing, asked.
******************************
He was inside of something that looked like...a starfighter? Well, a
starfighter was the only thing that would match the description of
whatever was that thing he was in. It had what looked like wings on
both sides of it...wait, it had TWO wings on each side, in a total of
four wings. Weird.
And he appeared to be in the middle of a dogfight.
Suddenly he heard voices on his head. Or at least he thougth that at
first: it was somebody talking to him thru a headphone or somethink
like that.
"Rogue Leader, are you there?"
"Yeah, I'm here. But I don't know for how long. This guys are good.
REALLY good." Michael said. Or at least he thought it was him. It
didn't sound like him, but it WAS him. Very weird.
"Well, they ARE really good, and soon there will be MORE of them. New
fighters coming in at..."
"I see them," he said before the other could finish his sentence.
And then he started to fire at the enemies, and pretty soon he was
doing loops, side-maneuvers and all that kind of stuff you can only do
on sci-fi movies or video games.
Suddenly he felt a nagging feeling at the back of his mind. And
somebody yelled at him.
"Horn, LOOK OUT!"
But it was too late. An enemy got a lucky shot past his defenses and
he exploded into a fire ball.
Michael woke up, sweating. And before he could re-order his thoughts,
the door bell rang.
******************************
It was Max. Michael waved him in, and before he could close the door,
Isabel and Tess also arrived at the apartment.
"What is this? A group meeting?" Michael asked.
"As a matter of fact, yes," Max answered. After everybody had sat
down, he spoke again. "I've been thinking about what we happened on
the last couple of days...about the revelations we had on the Chamber.
I don't know what is going to happen now, or what we are supposed to
do exactly. But I think we should try to develop our powers. If there
is a enemy out there, we should be ready to face it."
"And how are we supposed to do that?" Isabel asked her brother.
"We need to concentrate, like Nasedo told us." Tess answered.
"Yes. If we concentrate, we may be able to develop our powers." Max
agreed with Tess.
"But I don't want to develop my power. I kill people, and if that's my
power, I don't want it." Michael said.
"Michael..." Isabel begun, "You killed Pierce to protect us.
You have
to accept that and move on. We must acknowledge our mistakes, learn
from them, and move on."
Michael seemed to ponder that for a moment. "I don't know...I think I
will need more time to think about it."
*****************************
(Maria's house. Later that day.)
"I'm telling you, Alex. Michael and Isabel were a couple!" Maria
was
almost screaming.
"Calm down, Maria. I'm sure this is just a misunderstanding."
"No, it isn't." Liz said as she entered Maria's kitchen. "They
were a
couple, just like Max and Tess were."
"But that's impossible!" Alex looked confused. "Tess arrived
at
Roswell just a couple of weeks ago, and you and Max were already dating!"
"Look, it's hard to explain...I think that even they don't understand.
But it looks like they are clones of dead aliens. Married ones."
Alex and Maria looked at each other, more confused than ever.
****************************
After their earlier meeting Max, Isabel and Tess had decided that,
with or without Michael, they would start developing their powers on
the following day.
Or at least try.
"No. Do or do not. There is no try." someone said.
Max got up from his bed quickly, to find a man shimmering in a very
bright blue light staring at him.
"Who are you?" He started to ask, but before he had finished his
own
question, he suddenly recognized the man standing before him.
It was his father.
"Yes, your discerns serves you well Max...I *am* you father. Or at
least was." He smiled sadly.
"I know...Somehow I've always known." Max looked like he was
confused
and understanding at the same time.
His father chuckled. "This isn't the first time I heard that..." He
turned serious. "But that's not why I'm here. I am here to tell you
who you really are, Max."
It suddenly struck Max. "How do you know my name?"
"I've been watching you, your sister and the others since you crashed
on Earth."
"And why haven't you talked to us before?" Max was so enraged by
his
father revelation that he didn't realized the fact that he knew, since
the dream he and Isabel had, that his father was dead.
He waited for Max to calm down and replied. "Because you weren't
ready. You needed to accept your powers first, and to be willing to
develop them before I appeared before you."
Max seemed to ponder about that for a while.
"And now it's time to tell you and the others the whole truth. The
truth about yourselves."
He took a deep breath.
"A long time ago, in a galaxy far away, our people was trying to live
in peace after decades of war and fear under the Emperor's tiranny.
And we were trying to restore the order on our galaxy with the help of
what we called the New Republic, until they came. Our enemies called
themselves the Yuuzhan Vong, and they were powerful warriors from the
Unknown Regions, who physically hurt themselves to honor the name of
their gods. And they wanted to conquer our galaxy. They started at the
Outer Rim and pretty soon they were on the Core Worlds. It was around
that time that we did a desperate attempt on stopping them."
"But you didn't succeed. You died on that day!" Max suddenly
understood the dream he and Isabel had.
"Yes. The New Republic no longer existed. And you became the leader of
the last of our people. You never gave up on your hope of restoring
the peace to our galaxy, and never let the others lost theirs. But
you, like me, perished too. You, your sister, your bride, and your
second-in-command perished on the darkest day our galaxy had seen
since the rise of the Emperor. And in a last and desperate option,
your mother cloned you, and send you here, to Earth."
They were silent for a very long time, after which Max said "You know,
I don't even know your name, father."
"My name is Luke Skywalker. And I'm here to help you. All of you."
******************************
"Father? Is that you?"
Max turned around and saw Isabel, who had unexpectedly entered his room.
"Hello, Isabel. It's good to see that you have joined us..." Luke's
eyes seemed to focus on something beyond her. "You look so much like
your mother...so much like Mara."
"Mara? That's our mother's name?" Isabel asked, curious.
"Yes...Mara Jade Skywalker. She is the most intelligent, resorceful,
independent and tough woman I have ever seen. And a creature full of
love, too." His eyes once again were focusing on something beyond his
children.
"Is she still alive?" Max asked.
Luke's mind came back to where he was. "Yes, she is. She was the one
who sent you here, and has been waiting for your return since then,
never giving up hope."
A shadow crossed Luke's face, "Even tough she hasn't been herself lately."
"What do you mean?" Max and Isabel asked at the same time.
This time the shadow persisted. "Well, she has a very powerful and
devastating disease to fight against, and it has taken its share from
her. She is very debilitaded, and soon she will be joining me."
Okay, you guys convinced me...I will try and finish it.
For those of you who don't watch Roswell, here goes a storyline:
<<Liz Parker(Shiri Appleby) is a waitress at The Crashdown Cafe, a
restaurant her parents own in Roswell, New Mexico. She works along
side her best friend, Maria DeLuca (Majandra Delfino). When two
customers get in a fight, Liz steps up and gets shot. As she bleeds
to death, Max Evans(Jason Behr), a guy she grew up with, rushes over
and heals her. Max later reavels that he, his sister, Isabel Evans
(Katherine Heigl), and their friend, Michael Gurin (Brendan Fehr),
are all aliens from the 1947 crash that put roswell on the map. The
word gets to Maria, and their friend, Alex Whittman(Colin Hanks)that
they are aliens. The teens friendship for each other grow stronger by
the day, as they rely on each other for support. At the end of the
first season, they found two other aliens who were on the crash: Tess
(also a teenager) and Nasedo (an older man who is a shape-shifter).
From them they learn that they are clones of aliens who perished
during a intergalatic war, and that the FBI was behind them. Since
Michael killed Pierce (the head of the FBI special unit), Nasedo took
his place at the FBI, and they no longer have to worry with them.>>
And here goes something that I wrote today (the beginning of it was
on my last email) I hope you like it! And if you don't, give me
feedback anyway! =)
Disclaimers are on the first post of this fanfic.

****************************
"Father? Is that you?"
Max turned around and saw Isabel, who had unexpectedly entered his
room.
"Hello, Isabel. It's good to see that you have joined us..." Luke's
eyes seemed to focus on something beyond her. "You look so much like
your mother...so much like Mara."
"Mara? That's our mother's name?" Isabel asked, curious.
"Yes...Mara Jade Skywalker. She is the most intelligent, resorceful,
independent and tough woman I have ever seen. And a creature full of
love, too." His eyes once again were focusing on something beyond his
children.
"Is she still alive?" Max asked.
Luke's mind came back to where he was. "Yes, she is. She was the one
who sent you here, and has been waiting for your return since then,
never giving up hope."
A shadow crossed Luke's face, "Even tough she hasn't been herself
lately."
"What do you mean?" Max and Isabel asked at the same time.
This time the shadow persisted. "Well, she has a very powerful and
devastating disease to fight against, and it has taken its share from
her. She is very debilitaded, and soon she will be joining me."
After a moment of silence, Luke continued. "But, unfortunatelly,
there is nothing we can do about her disease. Trust me, I...," Luke
smiled faintly remembering for an instant all the talks he and Mara
had so many years ago at Nirauan, "WE have tried everything we could.
There is nothing else we can do, except save
the few survivors of the New Republic. And to do that, you'll need to
learn about the Force."
"The Force? What is it?" Max asked.
"The Force it's like a energy field that surround us, penetrate us,
and binds the galaxy together. It's what gives a Jedi its power. The
powers you have come from the Force and, with trainning, you can
become more powerful and control your powers better."
"Jedi?" It was Isabel turn to ask.
"Yes...A Jedi is a person who can touch the Force and who was trained
in the ways of the Jedi. You both can touch the Force but you are not
Jedi yet. You need to be trained by a Jedi Master. Michael, Tess, and
Liz can also touch the Force, but like you, they also need to be
trained before they can be considered Jedi."
"Wait...Liz can touch the Force? She can be a Jedi?"
"Yes, Max. Remember when you and she had some visions? That's one of
the powers a Jedi can have. And it's a power that requires much
wisdom to deal with. But being a Jedi is her decision. She doesn't
have anything to do with us, this isn't her fight, and if she doesn't
want to be a Jedi, she never will be. But she has the potential to be
one. A powerful one."
"Wait, Max, we can discuss that later." Isabel looked at her
father. "Father, you said that we needed to be trained by a Jedi
Master...Where are we going to find one?" Isabel asked, more to the
point.
"Well, that's a problem. Mara sent your clones to the Earth together
with four other people. Two of them where the scientists responsible
for the Spaarti cilinders, where your clones where being developed,
and the other two were Jedis: a Jedi Master and his apprentice. The
two scientists and the Jedi Master died during the landing, and you
know his apprentice as Nasedo, but he can't train you. So, you'll
need to find the spaceship in which you crashed, fix her, and come
back to our galaxy to be trained by one of the remaining Jedi Masters
there."
"But we can't leave! Mother said that our enemy, the Yuuzhan Vong,
have already come to the Earth." Isabel interjected.
Max looked at her and said. "But we can't turn our back on our people
either."
"And you won't survive if you face the Yuuzhan Vong without training.
You were Jedi Knights when you faced them before, and that didn't
prevent you from failure. Without trainning, you don't have any
chance."
"So, there is nothing we can do for them?"
"Not exactly, Isabel. You can come back home, become Jedi Knights,
and defeat the Yuuzhan Vong. On our galaxy and on this galaxy. In the
mean time, Nasedo can try to deal with them with the resources of
this so-called Special Unit he is in. There aren't too many Yuuzhan
Vong here yet, just some advance reconaissance groups. The Yuuzhan
Vong usually send this groups years before they actually begin their
invasion."
"Ok, it's settled then." Isabel said, resolutely. "We become
Jedi
Knights, defeat the Yuuzhan Vong on our galaxy, and come back here to
save Earth too. We just have to talk to Tess and Michael, and then we
are ready to go."
"And Liz. If she can be a Jedi, I'm sure she will want to become one
in order to save Earth."
Isabel looked at her brother, sadly. "Max, you don't know that. Maybe
Liz won't want to fight."
"And maybe she will."
"Children, before I go," Luke's shimmering image started to slowly
fade out, "I need to tell you how to find and fix the spaceship. You
need to go back to the Chamber where you were born from the Spaarti
cilinders. There you will find, hidden by Nasedo somewhere behind a
fake wall, an astromech droid, called R2-D2. R2 will help you find
and fix your spaceship, the Only hope. May the Force be with you."
