Chapter 4
Tobias and I had a good time, and I didn't want that time to end. It wasn't a usual thing that we hung out together. But I liked it.
After we ate, we decided to go for a walk. After a while he told me he had to morph back.
"I'll morph with you." I said, "I really want to fly now anyway." I loved flying, everyone else did too. There was just something about it; I don't know what it is though.
We both went into the woods a bit, where no one could see us and we morphed.
I hate actually morphing. It's just so, I don't know, gross? I could feel the feathers sprouting all over. It tickled, but I wasn't about to laugh. The winds began to form from my arms, as I shrank and noticed my toes turning to talons.
I shuddered and closed my eyes, not wanting to look at anymore of it.
Is it done? I asked Tobias, not wanting to open my eyes.
I would say so. He told me with a smile. Well, with what looked like a smile, if red tailed hawks could smile.
I was a red tailed hawk too. When I first became an Animorph, we went hunting for morphs for me. Tobias found me a red tailed hawk, so that was my bird morph.
We flew up and into the air; I could feel the air pressure changing around me. It wasn't normal. Things felt different.
Tobias, what's wrong? I asked.
A storm is coming. He told me, A bad one.
Well that's not good. I said, but kept flying in the direction of the clouds.
Where are you going?
Well, my two hours are nowhere near over, and I want to check the storm out. I said brightly.
Sam! You can't the storm could sweep you away; I think it might be a Hurricane. He reasoned, trying to get me to stay.
Oh, come on! I called back, still flying straight towards the storm.
You should morph back now. He stated, starting to follow me, It's dangerous.
Bah humbug. I'm going and you can't stop me.
By now he had given up. We flew in silence for a while. None of us uttered or rather thought, a word. Until, it started raining.
Sam, can we go back now? He asked.
I just wanna see some lightning.
You mean get hit by it? He questioned, slyly.
I'll ignore that. I muttered.
You shouldn't! Sam, I'm staying back.
Okay. See you later! I called, flying deeper into the storm.
The winds were picking up, I could barely fly anymore. The rain was falling harder. To top it all off, my two hours were almost up.
Tobias! I called.
No answer. I must have been too far away.
I decided to land and morphed back. I landed in a small town and found an abandoned shed. Once in there, I morphed back.
I stepped outside and looked around. Where the hell was I? I didn't recognize my surroundings.
"This really sucks." I muttered. I was lost.
