We share a burden,
The burden of being an Animorph.
See,
We can't tell anyone.
No.
They could be a Controller.
Anyone could
Your sister. Brother. Mother. Father.
Jake's brother is one.
So is Marco's mom.
We've learned to be secretive.
We've lied.
We have to.
It's not like we want to.
No.
Cassie's always valued her parents' trust.
And now it's broken.
Not that they know that.
We have the Chee
The frustrating Ellimist.
But they have their limits.
The Yeerks have advanced technology.
Weapons.
Hosts.
Taxxons.
Hork-Bajir.
And
THE ABOMINATION.
They DoN't have their limits.
Unfair?
You could say so.
But we're all there is.
Live with it.
And no, we're not the tough punks that roam the streets.
We're regular kids.
Regular.
No Mike Tyson.
No biting the ears off.
Natta.
None.
So, you ask, how do WE fight?
We can morph.
Any animal that we touch.
Bizarre, huh.
See, two years ago, an alien crash-landed in an old construction site.
War-Prince Elfangor.
Ax's brother.
Tobias's father.
But Tobias is human.
And no, we are not insane.
Wish we were.
And no, it isn't all cool, being superheroes and everything.
We're not even close to that.
A big burden
That of we share.
Big.
But at least we still have each other.
That's all that matters.
The burden we share . . .
A big one . . .
Big . . .
