hay guys I hope you've enjoyed the story so far. Here's the next chapter! enjoy! :)


It was morning. The sunrise specifically.

Although something about the air seemed different, I don't know how to explain it.

I just had this bad feeling like something was going to happen.

I don't know whether I was just nervous for some reason or what.

Like I said, the air itself seemed to have a heaviness to it, a dark heaviness.

Salam was still sleeping.

Her hand was touching her Dracon beam so I was wondering whether she was fully asleep or not.

"No..." she mumbled.

She was talking in her sleep again.

"No...no..." she mumbled again.

I still did not know what she was talking about.

"Don't...go...don't..." she mumbled.

"I-...I..." she continued.

This must have been a different dream then the last one where she acted like someone was going to kill her.

This sounded as though she was begging someone to not go somewhere.

Just then outside...

TESSSSSSER!

TESSSSSSSER!

TESSSSSSSSER!

Dracon beams!

How could there be Dracon beams firing on this planet?

There aren't any other yeerks on this planet besides Salam, and she was sleeping.

Salam woke up quickly.

"What's going on?!" she yelled. "I heard Dracon beams!"

I can hear them outside. I said. I don't know what's going on either.

"I'm gonna look." she said. "Stay here."

She stood up and walked with a slight limp. The Wishkli had put what Salam says humans call a cast on her leg.

She peaked her head out the door and quickly stuck it back in.

She had a horrified look on her face.

"Oh no..." she whispered. "They found me..."

what's out there? I asked.

"Uhhh...er...ummmm..." she said.

what's out there? I asked again but I think I knew the answer.

"Don't go out there." she said. "If you go out there you're dead."

how bad is it? I asked.

I already knew it was yeerks the moment I heard the Dracon beams.

"Everywhere..." she said. "They found me... he found me..."

I peaked my stalk eyes out the door to see how bad it was.

Bug Fighters everywhere! Firing at anything that moved.

Then I saw it...

Visser Three's blade ship, blacker then night, when you saw it you knew it meant death.

I stuck my stalk eyes back in the house.

I wondered why Salam was so scared, she was a yeerk, she should have been happy that they came for her.

But then I wondered why he had come.

Salam grabbed her Dracon beam.

"I'm going out there." she said. "Stay here."

She ran out before I could say anything.

Moments later I heard Hork- Bajir and controllers screaming: "It's the runaway! It's the runaway!"

I peaked my stalk eyes out the door again to see what they were yelling at.

I saw Salam running as fast as she could while Hork- Bajir and controllers chased her.

I don't know why but I ran out of the house.

Then the Hork- Bajir and controllers stopped chasing Salam and went after me.

"Andalite! Andalite!" they screamed.

Salam stopped running and looked at me. It was a strange look, sacred but kind of friendly. Then she ran over to where I was.

"Salam!" I heard a controller say. "If you help me take this Andalite down I'll put in a good word with the Visser for you and he might let you live."

I had been cornered by an area of pointy rocks, if I tried to use my tail I would be fried.

Both had drawn their Dracon beams but then just when I thought I was dead Salam did something I would have never expected...

TESSSSSSSSER!

The controller was dead.

Salam picked up the dead controller's Dracon beam and then gave me the same strange look again, this time with a little smile.


What had I just done?!

I just killed the Visser's highest ranking controller for an Andalite!

I could never ever go back now! I was finished!

The blade ship was landing now.

I just looked at Tilo. I had just given up my life for her and I even didn't know why.

It was kind of ironic how she had saved my life and I ended saving her life too.

I was alone in this battle, in a matter of minutes I would die.

The blade ship landed and then he stepped out.

Visser Three.

He walked over to where me and Tilo where.

I didn't realize I was shaking in fear.

He held his tail bade to my throat.

I'll deal with you later runaway! he said.

I gulped.

Then he looked at Tilo.

well, well, well, he said. a meddling Andalite.

Tilo arched her tail for attack. I could tell she was extremely nervous, I didn't blame her for that.

I saw two Hork- Bajir hold Tilo so she couldn't run.

Visser Three started to morph.

He morphed a horrible creature that looked like a giant mutant caterpillar with a circle of serrated teeth in the mouth.

He was going to kill her. Once again I decided to do something insane.

I aimed for the back of the giant mutant caterpillar's head and...

TESSSSSSSSSSSER!

ahhhhhhh! I heard the Visser cry in pain.

I looked at Tilo. She looked at me with her main eyes.

I made a little smile. She made an Andalite smile, which involves her eyes.

you! you runaway! the Visser shouted.

Then...

THWACK!

He had smacked me into some pointed rocks. I saw blood everywhere. My blood...

My vision was fading fast and I was getting numb from loss of blood.

My world was spinning, I was feeling light headed, my heart was racing.

Jasmine's mind was weakening.

I know it sounds crazy but I was thinking about Yeion3686.

Is this what he felt when he was dying?

I saw Tilo and Visser Three. Tilo was striking with her tail as much as she could but it did not effect the monster the Visser had morphed into.

But a Dracon beam had worked...

I aimed for the wounded spot of the back of the monster's head and...

TESSSSSSSSSSER!

I made the shot...
