| “Ok, when I was sixteen, my friend, Liz Parker, and I found out that aliens exist” Maria started. “Your kidding, how?” Max said, exited. “She was shot, and a guy from school healed her,” Maria explained. “Wow, so what happened?” Max asked, she was really getting into what Maria was telling. “We helped them a lot, let’s leave that at that” Maria said, she didn’t want to scare her daughter with the FBI and alien hunters. “Them?” Max asked surprised. “Yea, first there were three, and then a fourth came, turned everything upside-down, and then she left, but NOT before killing my best friend Alex” Maria said angrily. “So why are we going back there?” Max asked. “Because we need the healing stones from them to help Alex” Maria answered and that made Max even more confused. “Why can’t we go to a doctor?” Max asked, scared, she wanted her brother back; since they were twins, they could sometimes feel each other’s feelings and now she was feeling fear from Alex. “Because, as you know, you are not all human” Maria said and looked at her daughter, who was looking like she had seen a ghost. “What do you mean ‘not all human’? Are you saying that we are part alien?” Max asked in disbelief. “Yea” Maria said and let out a long breath. “Wow, so one of them is my father” Max said. Wow, finally she had a father. Maxine Isa DeLuca had a father. “Yea, his name is, or was, Michael Guerin. I don’t know if he still lives in Roswell, but when we get there, you can’t tell anyone anything about who you are and that you have powers” Maria said and looked sternly at her daughter. “Why?” Max asked. “I left when my best friend, Alex, was killed, I found out that I was pregnant with you and, well, I was on my way to tell Michael when I over heard a conversation that he and Max were having, and I couldn’t take all the stuff that happened, so I left, and I think they hate me” Maria explained. “So, how are you going to get the stones?” Max asked curiously. “I don’t know yet, and promise me that you won’t do anything” Maria said to her daughter, Max had always been like Michael, she would act first, then think, and that would often start trouble. “Promise” Max said and laid her hand over her mothers. “Ok, now let’s go to Roswell” Maria said and pulled the car out into the traffic and on they went, and every hour, every minute, every second, Maria DeLuca was nearer Roswell where all her hidden secrets laid.
