Disclaimor: I'll make this clear right now. I don't own animorphs!

Chapter 1 [Rachel's POV]

"Let's fly." Tobias smiled at me. When I saw his face I nearly choked. Usually his face was emotionless. His once tender hazel eyes, were usually fierce and angry. But now...

Now all of that fierceness was gone. Instead it was replaced by pain. Endless pain that nobody could stop.

I instantly flashed backed to the day before. To his tortuted hawk body, broken and lying helplessly inside that box.

Rage suddenly filled me. Rage and hatred towards that, what was her name? Taylor. Yeah Taylor. Gosh I hated her. How dare she? How dare she condem my sweet, gentle Tobias to that kind of torture?

My mind filled up with his screams. Screams that I heard the night before coming from him. We barely heard anything, but it was enough. Enough, for me to realize what was happening. Enough for me to realize how much I really cared for Tobias. I couldn't live without him and Taylor had nearly ripped that away from me.

Another wave of hatred hit me. I would kill her. I don't care what anyone else says. I WILL KILL HER! She had broken the person I loved and cared about most in the entire world. And I would make her pay.

"Rachel?" It took me a second to snap out of my toughts and realize that Tobias was talking.

"Yeah?"

"Are you okay?" His voice was full of concern. Shouldn't I be the one that was supposed to be worried?

I smiled at him. "Yeah I'm fine. Come on let's go!"

Soon we were all flying in our various bird morphs. Tobias was himself. Cassie and Marco were ospreys. Jake was a peregrine falcon. Ax was a noethern harrier and I was a bald (golden?) eagle.

I noticed that Tobias was unusually quiet. Well no duh, I scowled myself. He just got tortured. What did you expect? For him to be bouncing up and down in happiness?

Rage threatened to swallow me up again, but I stopped it. No, you can't be mad. Not right now. You have to be strong. Tobias needs you.

I swooped by next to him. Normally, he would have told me to stay away because hawks and eagles don't fly together. He didn't do anything.

I swooped by even closer. Nothing.

((Tobias?)) I called privately. No answer.

((Tobias?)) I tried again. Nothing. I glanced at him and noticed that he was slightly shaking. What was he thinking?

((Tobias?)) This time I couldn't keep the anxiety from my voice.

He slowly seemed to be coming out of his trance.

((Huh? What?)) His voice was shaky. He sounded scared. Something, I rarely heard from him.

((Are you okay?)) He seemed to consider that for a second.

((Yeah. I'm fine.)) We both knew that was a lie.

((Tobias-)) I got interrupted by Marco.

((Hey look!)) I looked in his direction. I didn't see anything besides the blue sky.

((I don't see anything Marco.)) I said annoyed.

((No. Look.)) This time it was Cassie who said that. I checked again. This time I got a glance of a ripple. It was small. Barely visible to us. I suddenly felt a precence near.

Like I said it was small. Not like others we've encountered. Dread washed over me.

((Guys?)) Tobias asked.

((Yup.)) Jake said. It was Ax who gave us the answer I was dreading to hear.

((A bugfighter.))
