Liz was at Rosa's grave talking to her ( which she knew was dumb because she couldn't hear her but she was doing it anyway ) when she felt it. She felt Max's lifeforce leave her through the handprint on her chest. Dropping the rose at her feet, she ran to her car and relied on the handprint to lead her to him.

What she found there was unexpected; her sister alive and well. Her sister! Her sister had been dead for ten years was suddenly in her arms and Liz was in shock, confused, in tears, and happy all at once. That happiness went away, though, when she put it all together and asked about Max. She couldn't run to the cave fast enough when Rosa told her where she was. Seeing him lying still on the dusty floor, she knew what had happened. He was dead.

Running over to him, she knelt down next to him and began pounding on his chest as she tears fell from her face. As she laid down across his chest and shook him, her sobs echoing in the cave, she was transported back to Goodland. Instead of being in a cave, she was in a park under a streetlamp on the cold grass. All of her memories from her previous time there came rushing back to her and she just sat on the ground defeated. She didn't notice she was being surrounded by vampires until it was too late.

She almost kept walking when he stopped then she turned back to him, nodding a sad nod in response to what he said. "He did" She replied softly. And she loved him for it but she also felt some angry bubbling inside of her at him for making that choice without talking to her first. She was not a fan of having her agency taken away from her like that. Right now, though, being heartbroken was overpowering that angry and keeping it down low. "You're not kidding" She muttered in Spanish as she leaned into his arm, letting him comfort her. She needed her faux dad right now. "He did that for me and now I'm stuck back here away from Rosa for who knows how long" And you know what? She was pissed off about that too.

Oh how Tony wished he could stabilize Goodland so he could bring the people his loved ones wanted. Or even give them the power to return home if they wanted. No one should have those choices taken from them, whether the entity was jubilant, vindictive, or somewhere in between.

Tony wanted to tell her that Rosa could arrive, but it was trite comfort and he knew it so he remained quiet on the subject. He, instead, nodded. "It is too much for a few hours. I wish you didn't go through that."

"Me too" She replied, getting quiet after that as she walked with her head near his shoulder. Thanks to her heels boots, she was able to walk comfortably with him like that as he took her to her apartment. Somehow she had the keys to her place on her and opened the door with ease.

As soon as she flipped the lights on, she froze in her place. The apartment looked nothing like how she'd left before she was yanked away. It was a shell full of things that only belonged to her. As it hit her that Max and Michael were gone, Liz raised a hand up and placed it above her heart on her chest where a glowing handprint resided. It was covered by her jacket at the moment so Tony would not be able to see it.

He would, however, be able to see the new tears that fell from her eyes as she spoke. "The Entity took them too. My boys aren't here anymore"

Tony watched her carefully, trying to anticipate what she might need. He wasn't the best at this stuff, but he tried and he liked to think he was getting better at it. "Oh, damn it," he swore under his breath. How much more could the the entity throw at this young woman? It wasn't fair. He squeezed her shoulders. "I've got you," he promised. "I'm not going anywhere." He knew it wasn't much comfort, but it was all he could offer. He couldn't bring the boys back. Not yet anyway.
