AXIMILLI'S KINDNESS
The war had been won, but another was about to begin...
Rachel stood there. Tapping her fingers on the table, waiting for his
descision.
Rachel-> he said,
"Don't call me Rachel," Rachel snapped, "Aximilli, you know my name."
Deputy president Rachel, > Ax said calmly, I do not
know whether I can perform this. I do->
"Don't start talking about Seerow's kindness, now!" Rachel yelled,
"You promised me, Ax, you made a promise and I know one thing about Andalites,
they keep their promises,"
Ax couldn't say anything. He knew what Rachel said was true, he could
not risk his Andalite heritage, yet he could not brake a promise, any Andalite
knew that.
But Rachel->
"Deputy president Rachel,"
Deputy president Rachel, I can not. I just cannot>
Rachel stared at him, with hatred in her eyes. She walked around the
table that separated him and her,
She pointed at the bright light above her head.
"Look at that bulb, Ax!" Rachel hissed, Ax turned his main stalk eyes
to it, "That is the planet earth, and me and you are it's inhabitents."
She took a long meaningfull pause.
"Me and you, two extremely large people for that tiny planet." she
continued, "That is what is happening to earth, the population, Ax. There
are too many humans..."
I know that->
"I know you know that," Rachel hissed, "But what are you going to do?
Just sit there with your stupid Andalite self?"
No, Rachel...>
"No, you're not, you're going to help me turn all those other planets
in this solar system to liveable habitations for human beings, Ax," she
continued, "We're not like the Yeerks, we humans are not like Yeerks. We
are not evil, we don't and we probably wont take over other planets, all
I need is the technology..."
Rachel.>
"Rachel?"
Yes, Rachel, I can not do this!> Ax said sharply, I am saying
this because I was brought up knowing that the law of Seerow's Kindness
was never to be broken, I do not see you breaking laws.>
"That's because I never have the chance to save whole planets," she
answered, "Look at Europe, thought to be the most civilised and most advanced
continent on the planet is now overflowing with people. Africa, Asia, Australia
even Antartica!"
What do you want me to do?>
"I want you to help us with the technology to help us humans
to make the moon - our moon - livable for human beings, I know you can
do it, I just need that..."
Your moon?>
"Yes, as I've mentioned - and you've probably noticed - this planet
is over flowed with humans, we need another habitat. So the plan is for
the great amounts of us to live on the moon."
And when that is overflowed?>
"It wont be for another hundred years,"
When do I start?>
"Marco's head of this project," she answered, "Him and his staff will
be over here at three this afternoon."
Rachel left the dark room quickly, no doubt in search of her next business
victim.
Aximilli's Kindness...> Ax said to himself, Sounds pretty
catchy.>
"So you're saying you actually convinced Ax to help humans with technology?"
Tobias asked Rachel from his comfertable leather couch.
"Uh-huh, I just told him about that whole 'Europe was thought to be
the most civilised'!" Rachel said as she poured a glass of champagne.
A burst of laughter escaped from both Tobias and Rachel's mouth.
"Will he be surprised when he finds out the truth!"
"Maybe you could even help us with Z-Space travel?" Marco asked Ax.
Ax didn't say anything, he was too busy writing down equatic equations
and semi-solar refragmental equations.
"Ax?"
No.>
"No?"
Yes, No.>
"Ookay."
