3 Weeks Later
********************************************************
Jake, Cassie, Marco, Tobias, and Ax were in the barn talking about their next mission. Tobias was trying to pay attention to the plan, but he couldn't. His thoughts were somewhere else. He kept having this feeling like something was missing. He couldn't quite place what, but he knew there was defiantly something wrong.
Suddenly, he had a vision. A girl. Tall, beautiful, blonde hair, blue eyes.
'She should be here,' Tobias thought, not knowing where the vision had come from, but sure she was the missing piece.
'She should be here laughing at Marco's lame jokes and jumping up from a bale of hay saying "Let's do it!" Where is she? Who is she? Why can't I remember?'
*********************************************************
Meanwhile...
I looked down and gasped. My moon amulet had begun to glow. Electricity pulsed through it and it hummed against my neck. Followers were around. What should I do? The other Daughters weren't here. They couldn't help me. Even if Jimena had had a premonition about this, she wouldn't be able to get here in time.
'Oh, no,' I thought as the group of Followers stepped in front of me, their iridescent eyes glowing. I did the only thing I could do. I ran.
'I wish Tobias were here,' I suddenly thought.
Wait... who? Where had that thought come from? Who was Tobias? Just that shy kid from school that moved away. I didn't know what had made me think of him.
Caught up in my daydreaming I hadn't noticed the rock ahead of me. I tripped over it and fell face first into the dirt.
The Followers closed in on me. They grabbed me and pulled me up, forcing me to look into their radiant eyes.
'I'm sorry, Animorphs,' was the last thought I had before evil surrounded me. Then...
Tap, tap, tap.
I woke with a start, gasping. Just a dream. Lifting my head from my sweat-drenched pillow, I saw Tobias at my window, ready to go flying.
Hey, you okay? he asked.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Just a nightmare," I answered. Then I morphed and we flew out the open window.
As we rode the thermals, I went over the dream in my head.
The real parts: I am a goddess. The Followers exist. The dream part: I had never joined the Daughters.
Three weeks ago I had called Serena and told her that I was sorry, but I couldn't fight the Atrox. She said she understood.
Rachel? Come on, there are some killer thermals starting to come up, Tobias called.
All right, right behind you, I answered.
And as we flew toward the brilliant stripes of color behind the beautiful rising sun, I knew that everything was as it should be.
THE END
**********************************************************************
A/N: Ha! Did I trick you? Were you fooled? Did you think Rachel had given up the Animorphs? Hopefully. That's what I was aiming for.
Anyway, if this story gets enough feedback I was thinking of writing a sequel. Maybe making the Animorphs and the Daughters of the Moon join forces or something. And anyone who feels bad for Marco cause he doesn't have a g-f, if I write a sequel I'm putting him w/ Catty. They would be so good 2gether 4 a number of reasons which I don't feel like going in2 right now. So if you want a sequel, review and tell me. Thanx!
