(Anily) The Letter 2! Haven't wrote any Animorphs in a long time! Yes, I'm actually writing again. (Khthonia)Я не могу поверить в это! (Anily) And I thought I was bad with the French. She's writing the next chapter in our Percy Jackson and now is talking to me in Russian. (sighs) Oh well.

Prologue

"Hey, Alan, look at this." Loren showed him a sealed letter, the letters "A.S.D." in a golden colored ink.

"'A.S.D.'? Open it, Loren." Alan replied.

She did and read out loud:

"Earth date: January 5th, 2017.

I know I shouldn't be writing this- my mother did this before but the letter only stayed in our universe. What I'm doing is worse.

My mother, "A.L.R.", warned Rachel B. about the Yeerk War-but they never came to Earth- two years before she nor the other Animorphs were supposed to know. The Animorphs and Elfangor from here, she accidentally transported there, where both Aximilis became trapped in a black hole. While the others tried to save them, A.L.R. included, the Tobias from each universe got separated from the group to the world of Stsimille, and wouldn't be able to return until the Controllers in the group were freed. In conclusion, my mother, the Marco from here, and Lyzah from there were Controllers.

Everyone, of course, returned to where they were supposed to. The only people who remembered it over there are Lyzah and Tobias, Lyzah a Controller once again, though, her Yeerk, Kala 115, is in the Y.P.M.

The reason I'm writing this is because... Because the Animorphs here, Elfangor, their children, my mother, and myself are in danger that can harm every one's counterparts also."

"Not good."

Chapter One

A female Andalite wept inside, not able to make tears like humans. She knew that she wasn't supposed to be alive at all... Well, half supposed to.

Her mother, an Andalite, wasn't supposed to be born in any universe, but was.

Her father was a human, who knew her mother before, and he became an Andalite Nothlit by accident, but was supposed to be born.

They never wanted to get married, each knowing he wasn't an Andalite on the inside, but her parents made them after seeing the talk together a lot- not knowing it was about how to make him human again.

After she was born, her father became human and was returned to Earth because of an Ellimist, where he had been missing for over a decade and was forced to marry again to a woman, who bore them a son.

The Andalite daughter of the human was Anehta-Simetra-Deathra.

-----

He knew what his father had been before. He had heard his parents talking about it once.

He had been restless so he went down to get something to drink when he heard them:

"What was it you wanted to tell me?" His mother asked.

"During the years I was missing, I wasn't on Earth. I wasn't a human on the outside either." His father answered.

"Are you playing a joke on me?" The mother demanded.

"No. I have this to prove it." The father replied.

The boy moved so he could see them and whatever they would do.

The father pulled out something looking like a small globe.

"So? It's just a ball." The mother said.

The father touched a button on the globe and a hologram appeared.

What the boy and mother saw nearly made their hearts stop.

It was a picture of something none human. There was three, two larger than the third, the smaller and one of the larger ones a shade of purple and the other a shade of blue, each tan in a few places. They were the lower half like a deer and upper like a human but had seven fingers, no mouth, stalk eyes, and a scorpion looking tail. What they would later learn was that they were Andalites.

"This," The father pointed at the blue one. "Was me. The other two are my wife and daughter when I was one of them."

"This is a joke. It must be." The mother tried to convince herself that it wasn't real.

"Let me show you this isn't." The father started morphing...

The boy's heart hurt to remember the rest. His father became an Andalite, just like the one in the hologram. His father had a completely different life millions of light years away.

The human son of that man was Jerome.

----

The sister and brother were sadden by the tale their parents had told them. Their deaths was one of the few things that they could do to free them of the danger everyone they knew was in... This is what had happened:

((Father, are we ever going to escape?)) The daughter had asked.

The father and mother glanced at each other.

The father sighed. ((Our captor says that all of us parents must give up something to save everyone. The only things our captor accepts are all the new Andalite technology that wasn't in the database, giving up the "Blue Cube", or, or...))

((What's the last thing, Father?)) The son inquired.

The father stared at his wife, asking for her to tell.

((Or, you must die.)) She finished...

The children were starting to think that if they were never born their parents wouldn't be in this mess in the first place. They were willing to do anything to save everyone.

The Andalite daughter was Calliope-Terpsichore-Melpomene. The Andalite son was Enceladus-Thanatos-Hyperion.

-----

A human girl wept. The only way her family could escape is if she killed all her friends and other family besides her parents. Their captor wouldn't let them have another choice:

Her parents and herself sat behind a glass wall where the person or thing on the other side could see them but not the other way around.

"How can we escape?" Her father asked.

"Let me see... The parents are both members of the supposed-to-be Animorphs... So are most of their friends... What shall be your payment?" The captor said.

The girl tensed, wondering what they would have to do.

"I'm almost to that part, child." The captor replied.

She jerked, surprised he knew what she was thinking. 'Wait... Did he say "supposed-to-be Animorphs"? Isn't that a book series?'

"No. Didn't your parents ever tell you that?" The captor muttered.

She stared at her parents. "It's true?"

Sadly, they nodded.

"Those books are all true... In the parallel universe, that is." Her mother answered.

"Why didn't you tell me?" The girl wondered.

"We didn't know how we could tell you." The father admitted.

"Well, enough of the chatting. I've made my mind. Child," The captor said. "To escape, you must..."

They gasped...

The girl wished that someone else could do the deed for her. She couldn't bring herself to do it.

The human girl was Thalia.

-----

The twin brother and sister felt sick because of what they had to do: they had to let themselves be killed by their friends...

"What can we do to escape?" They asked, in the room by themselves, for the captor said that they had a different deed to do than their parents.

"What you two must do escape, let me check again..." The captor said, making them feel as if they were surrounded in ice.

The girl swallowed and the boy felt sick.

"Well, your parents have to do something worse than what you do so be glad you're not them." The captor stated, making them feel worse.

They wanted to walk right out of the room and stay his captives till they die or kill themselves there and then but the chairs they were in strapped them with the hardest metal known to man.

"You're not going anywhere, nor killing yourselves." The captor said as if he always had to say that. "Now... father and mother... both important..."

The girl's leg became near paralyzed and both her arms also. The boy felt as if he was going to choke and he felt as if both his legs were paralyzed. Now, since both were sorta "mind-linked", but by the sense of touch instead of mind, so both of them felt as if both their arms and legs felt paralyzed so neither of them could try to escape.

"That's my good children." The captor muttered, being a Hippocratic. "Now, where was I? Oh right..."

The girl moved her hand and tried to find something that could let her go. The boy also did this, in fear that they wouldn't be able to move anymore.

"All right. I have decided." The captor said at last. The children felt a bit of relief. "You must let your friends kill you."

He let them out, where they were now, sickened and scared.

The human daughter was Luna. The human son was Anatolius.
