Rachel's point of view
*~*
'Rachel?'
I shook from my thoughts
'yeah, what?'
'Oh, you're alive…' He was being sarcastic, I know. But that was the amazing part. I was alive. It was Marco talking. I wasn't dead. And yet I remembered the pain, the anger, the frustration of the battle. Of dying. The sadness as Tobias cried for me. I remembered Jake's words.
I looked up and smiled. We were in the barn. Cassie's barn. But not for battle, for reunion. Everyone was there, Jake, Marco, Ax, in his natural form, Cassie and Tobias. Tobias, my love, no longer grieving for me. He was in his human morph, but I knew it was for two hours only. Still I was happy.
The war was over. No more fighting. But still, even now, there was a part of me that longed for more. I knew it, Jake had said it. I longed for battle, for bloodshed, for pain.
What I didn't know was that I would get it…..

Ellimist's point of view
*~*
We were on the same side, Mirage and I. We both fought for good. But I felt against her. Instinct maybe, but I didn't like her. She had made Alternate Universes cross, a deliberate move to indirectly change time. Who knew what else it would change. She was bringing me back into war, she was bringing all of us back into war. The Andalites, the humans, everyone.
But. But I finally had freedom. She had found a way. There would be no battle among us, it would be among other species. We would play the game. We would be the players. And also the pieces.
The game had started. We had a time limit of 3 hours to inform our species, our pieces, of the battle approaching.
I appeared in the barn in my Ketran form. The wise man.

Jake's POV
*~*
He appeared. In his wise man guise. Who knew what he wanted of us now? He was all powerful and still did he need the help of the pitiful humans, of children.
'You!' cried Marco accusingly. 'What did you do? Why do we not remember finishing the yeerks? Why are they gone, but we have no memory of the final moments?' His voice softened, 'was it even real?'
IT WAS REAL, MORE REAL THAN ANYTHING YOU COULD HAVE IMAGINED OR DREAMED OF.
'Than answer this Ellimist.' I said. 'Why do we not remember, none of us, the end of it. The end of the yeerk threat.'
RACHEL KNOWS.
We turned, eyes at Rachel. She looked up, troubled. Then shook her hair as though it was nothing of importance.
'What happened?' I asked, slight annoyance caught my tone.
Her expression was troubled once again, her voice was whispered, all confidence disappeared. 'I died. In the end, you…you told me to kill Tom. And I died.'
'And?' my voice was short of strangled. I had sent Rachel away to kill my brother. I had ended her life.
'The Ellimist. And another. Her name was Merage, or something. She saved me, she sent me back, here.'
My eyes downcast, it was involuntary. 'What do want now Ellimist?'
TO GIVE YOU INFORMATION.
'Yeah, what?' Tobias said, his face held no emotion but I knew he was hurting inside.
THERE WILL BE A BATTLE, ANOTHER. THE YOORTS.
Marco glanced suspiciously, 'The yoorts? That name….where have I heard it before'
Rachel was first to recall. 'Oh those filthy slugs! I knew we should have killed them when we had a chance!'
'You mean…the Iskoort?' Cassie hadn't said much, and I knew that hearing that the Iskoort had chosen parasitic lives made her angry. 'How could they?'
'Not them,' I said realising, 'Crayak.'
'I thought the rules of the game you were playing didn't allow it.' It was Marco who had spoken.
THERE IS A NEW WAR, A NEW BATTLE. AND YOU ARE PART OF IT.
'No!' I cried. 'I am not willing to fight the yeerks…the yoorts all over. The results, Tom…Rachel….no…'
'Neither.' The rest agreed.
YOU HAVE NO CHOICE. BUT THIS TIME, THERE IS ASSISTANCE. MIRAGE, SHE HAS FOUND AN ALTERNATE UNIVERSE. THEY HAVE ALREADY CROSSED YOUR PATH.
I interrupted. 'An alternate universe. As in another Animorphs?'
YES. THEY ARE WAITING. IN MORPH OUTSIDE THE BARN AT THIS VERY MOMENT.
WORDS OF ADVICE: THINGS ARE DIFFERENT IN ALTERNATE UNIVERSES. DO NOT TRY TO COMPARE, NOR CONTRAST. NOT ALL WILL BE SIMILAR, OR DIFFERENT.
I nodded and waited for the reactions of the others. There faces were of anger, frustration, sadness, amazement. He turned away.
I WILL JOIN YOU SOON. AS WILL MIRAGE.
