Ch 3-Tobias
I sat perching on the branch in my small cage, waiting for something to turn up for me. I was deeply uncomfortable being cooped up like this since my hawk instincts had a fear of closed spaces. There was a lock on the front of the cage but I just knew I couldn't be able to reach it. Hawk talons and beak can't unlock anything and sensors were attached to Dracon Beams to insure no morphing. The door slowly opened, my heart skipped a beat. I fared up, wings outstretched, in full combat mode, well, combat mode on land. I knew who was coming and I was disappointed. "Hello, my precious human nothnit friend, how are you feeling after that beating?" said the sly, thick voice of Taylor. Her hair was in a ponytail, her clothes were a skintight black jacket, green shirt, black skirt and black army boots. "I wanted you to remember when we last met, the time when I wanted to destroy the Yeerk Pool but you were so soft, it was pathetic. Too bad, this relationship never lasted long. Now, should we continue with the beating
so I can find the rest of Hork-Bajir refugees?" She took out her black whip out of the pocket. She raised it above her head and was about to strike when
Tssseeeeeeeeeewww!
A sound like a Dracon Beam, only different, pierced the air, as a purple-red flash of light struck Taylor full in the back. She opened her mouth to scream but nothing came out, her eyeballs went up. The flash was gone and she stood still for only one second before falling forward, her knees caving in, and crashed to the floor. I was astounded, for my enemy was knocked out cold, and annoyed since she was probably the only one to open the cage. \
Two women came in, in fancy clothes, and looked around the room, probably to seek out any other Yeerks in the area. They were each holding some sort of laser pistol, not a Yeerk or Andalite weapon I've seen. 'That must be what shot that beam.' I thought. Jake and the others came in after them,"Jake! Cassie! Marco! Rachel! Ax! You're still alive! Are you controllers or are they? I said with eagerness. "We're just fine, these two got us out of infestion and took out a army of human and Hork-Bajir controllers! They say they're Galaxy Police officers." Said Jake, in his leader tone, something that he hadn't done for a while. Rachel walked up to one of the Officers and asked, "Can you get him out? He's a nothitit and those Dracon Beams are preventing him from opening the lock." The blondie cheerily replied, "Sure, we can get him out in no time!" Green hair smirked, "We have almost no time, remember? Our ship is uncloaked outside and the Yeerk mothership will soon get the news that the Yeerk Pool has been seized
and its leader captured. There are already Bug Fighters all over powering up and if we don't get our mission completed, we'll never get out alive!"
Blondie didn't seem to understand, "Sure, but we're safe and that's what matters." Marco whispered to Jake, "Talk about your dumb blondie." Rachel seemed to hear that and yanked his ear hard. "Owwww!" He cried out in pain. "Okay, everyone, stand back!" said green hair as she leveled the gun at the cage bars. Tsssssseeeeeeeeeeew! Shot out the beams light as it struck dead-on target with the bars. They seemed to warp back and forth and bent over, breaking the cage apart. I flared up and flapped my wings, Ahhhhhhhhh. I felt very good just now after being cooped up for 5 days. "Come on! We don't have all day!" said Green hair, waving her hand as if it were a "follow me" sign. Ax galloped, I flew and the others just ran. Several Hork-Bajir came out of separate entrances but those two just blasted them away, stunning many on the floor. Tseeew! Tseeew! Dracon beams firing! I lowered myself to keep chances of getting hit. The two returned fire and we continued running.
The blondie took out a calculator-sized computer as she was running and tapped in a few buttons. I noticed a pink light shoot out of a hole in the ceiling that soon covered us all. I felt myself lifting and the others were too as if we were in zero Gravity! More Hork-Bajir came out and began firing on us. But as weird as it seems, the light seemed to just reflect the Dracon Beams back at the Hork-Bajir. They disappeared before they had a chance to scream. We slowly disappeared and reappeared in what seemed to be a cockpit for a plane. It had strange symbols and words on it and odd instruments. Green hair pointed to a door, "Go in there, we'll get us out of here." "You don't have to tell me twice!" said Marco as he bounded to the door. "Wait for me!" said Cassie and Rachel. "I'm coming!" said Jake. Prince Jake, wait for me as well! spoke Ax. I went in last, but not without saying, Thanks, for saving me. They nodded to me as a token as friendliness and said, "It was our pleasure." I soared thorough the door
opening and got in as it closed. The ship we were in picked up speed and we soon were in Zero-space.
