AX
I stared at the human boy with my main eyes in disbelief. This was the great warrior that had the power to beat even Elfangor? Ridiculous!
He was about Prince Jake's height and age, with startling red hair. His lips formed a human smile as he looked at us. I cannot be sure, but I did not think it was a very nice smile by human standards. He gave us a quick bow.
"Andalites," he said, the word rolling off his tongue with a slight sneer. "I've been looking forward to killing you for some time."
It was utterly ridiculous! This... human? With human legs and no natural weapons? This was our new great enemy, the Yeerks' new weapon?
This human could defeat Elfangor?
(Uh… Jake, what do we do?)
(I will take care of him, with Prince Jake's permission,) I volunteered. There was a small silence. I knew how my human friends disliked killing other humans.
(Do it, Ax. We have to.)
Cassie turned her wolf head away as I attacked suddenly, swinging my tail around to-
SWA-
I stared in disbelief. It was impossible! But the human stood there, the same smile on his face, and he held my tail in his clenched fist. He had stopped my tail one-handed in mid-strike.
(Holy shit!) Rachel cried.
(Oh my god! Did you see that?)
(Who is he?)
The human leaned towards me, his smile growing. "Surprise, Andalite."
I didn't see his hand coming, but I felt it connect with my head, a blow no Hark Bajir, must less a human could have delivered. I staggered before my front legs buckled and collapsed beneath me.
(Ax!) I heard Tobias cry, followed by his familiar hawk cry. Down he went for the human, who tossed him away with he was a feather.
(Tobias!) Rachel screamed, lunging forward, and the real battle began.
There were six of us. Six of us versus one of him. And he just laughed as he tossed us back, his own bare hands greater than any weapon I have ever seen.
My tail slid through his careful guard, leaving a long, bloody scar along the side of his face.
"Ahh!" he yelled pulling back, and he grabbed my tail and twisted it around. I screamed in agony and when he let go, I could no longer feel my tail at all. I stared in horror at him as the scar I had given him suddenly closed up and healed instantly.
"I'm tired of games, Andalites," he said, drawing himself up, his eyes flashing dangerously. "Say good-bye."
I saw the face of death itself staring at me, and I felt a mortal fear that have never felt before.
(This is it,) Cassie whispered. (Oh, god, please let it be quick.)
He smiled again then and laughed a deep, horrible laugh.
"I don't give a fuck how big and tough you are, little brother, let's see you heal a Dracon beam to the head at full power."
The human's eyes grew wide in shock and everything seemed to stop. I gasped for breath as I stared at the scene before me.
Another human girl stood next to the human, holding a Dracon beam against his forehead. It took me a second to recognize her.
It was Alanna.
Not very long, I know, but what do you think? All shall be revealed soon! Just keep reviewing!
