Chapter 21: say it ain't so

What was meant to be a fun night for the new parents turned out to another night filled with alien drama whether it was indirectly linked to them or not as she thought about Maria's new abilities from Isobel's questions as she began to think like Malia and Michael when it came to finding out the truth about their parents and where they came from. She knew that they should be comforted slightly by the fact that Maria's new foresight seemed to be related to experiments done on her grandma at Caulfield than her having alien DNA. However this new information seemed just as terrified as much as the alternative as she couldn't help but wonder how many more people had been experimented on and the unknown consequences of that as of others like Maria running around. This meant Malia's head seemed to be filled with even more what if scenarios and questions than normal causing her to fall in to an uneasy sleep filled with nightmares and terrible fears playing out in her dreams leading her to sleepwalk into her art studio while she was still in a sleepy daze, barely aware of what was happening around her or to her. It wasn't long before Michael became aware that something was wrong, feeling the familiar presence of their bond causing him to wake up and reach over to the other side of the bed looking for his wife instead finding the bed empty causing him to wake up more as he began to look around the quiet room. After checking on Tally and grabbing the baby monitor before going downstairs in search of his wife, he soon headed to her studio after seeing the faint warm glow of the lamp in the room as he walked into to see the room covered in torn pieces of paper with symbols drawn over them as his attention turned to Malia who was standing in front of canvas as she frantically scribbled more symbols.

" babe? Babe, what are you doing? Lia? Hey, Malia!" Michael said trying to getting her to snap out of the trance like state she seemed to be in as he grabbed her by the shoulders and shook her a little as he began to get worried about what was going on with her

" Michael?" Malia said sounding startled as she looked around the mess in room as she wondered what happened as she knew that she always tried to leave this room somewhat tidy and organised despite whatever project she was working on at the time

" yeah it's me, baby" Michael said breathing a breath of relief that whatever had overtaken her seemed to have loosened its hold on her as she looked more focused and alert than she had before when he had walked into the room to see her frantically painting

" what happened?" Malia said looking around as she knew something was immediately off as she felt her chest begin to tighten as something definitely felt wrong as she could fear Michael worry and fear coming through their bond as he looked at her

" what's the last thing you remember?" Michael said trying to work out how much Malia had been awake and conscious during whatever had just happened to her as he hoped that nothing was wrong with her as he couldn't cope with the possibility of her being sick
