Chapter 1

Hi, my name is Marco, and as of ten minutes ago my life went from pretty strange to down-right wack.

My friends and I are now sitting in the Blackbird, better known as the x-jet, next to some of the most famous people in comic book history, the X-Men.

You might wonder how this happened and all I have to say is that you should already have read about it from Tamitha and Tobias – bu-u-ut for those of you who have not, I will do a short re-cap. (Or as short as explaining the freakish life of the Animorphs can go.)

You might be surprised to learn that our lives were really not that different than they are now, very strange? Yes. A while back my four friends and I were walking home through an abandoned construction site one night when we saw an alien land right in front of us. His name was Elfangor, he was an Andalite, and had just been in battle in space, he was injured and dying. He gave us a gift and a curse, he gave us the power to turn into any animal that we touched, pretty cool, huh? Well there was one draw-back, we could not remain in morph for more than two hours, or we would remain in that form for the rest of our lives. 

Ah, yes, the Animorphs – who are they, you might ask. I, the amazing Marco, am one of them, as is my best bud, Jake – our fearless leader. Jake's Cousin Rachel, code-named Xena, as well as her best friend Cassie, the resident tree hugger, are part of our team. And now we get into the stranger portion of the crew. What is part man, part deer, is blue all over, and has a tail that moves faster than the eye can see? Ax, the Andalite, Elfangor's little brother, is our resident alien. Ax's nephew, by some strange twist of the timeline is Tobias. Tobias is an interesting character, he has the mind of a teenage boy (hormones included) but because of the wonderful rules of morphing, he is stuck in the body of a hawk. He has since regained his power to morph, thanks to an almighty being. His twin sister, Tamitha and he were reunited almost two weeks ago. She is truly an amazing person; she received the power to morph about two weeks ago but has already taught us almost as much as we have taught her. She showed us that we can all communicate telepathically even when we are not in morph and can manipulate her morph as she so chooses – although the latter is not so different from what Cassie has done in the past, but she still amazes me.

Yeah, as you can tell we are a shabby bunch of people, but we sorta know what we're doing. What more can you expect from a group of teenagers?

A/N: I am sad about the lack of reviews, but I deal, and figured that perhaps if I posted something else, just maybe someone would respond.
