Disclaimer: I don't own Animorphs. I wish I did, but I don't. - Anyways this story and any characters that are made up are mine and Cassie's. So don't use them without asking.

Just so people now this isn't just my story. My friend Cassie and I came up with this together. We're co-authors. I come up the ideas and she types them up. And the chapters will switch between Kitty's POV and Loren's POV. Enjoy!!

Loren's POV

I don't know what had been going on while Kitty was in the cave. She came out acting very strange, though. I'd never seen her so out of it. She kept staring out into space and murmuring to herself. She looked like she was going to cry. But every time I asked her if something was wrong, she'd always shake her head, and say, "I'm fine."

I had followed Ax back to Kitty's house to get her mom. Ax had told me some things about Andalites. I wouldn't have believed a word of it, except for the fact that there was a big blue alien standing in front of me at the time. He had said something about his prince. I didn't remember what he had said, though, and I didn't ask.

I was standing there in the little clearing, listening to the distant rippling of the small stream. The trees were making the night fall faster, and I wanted to get out of there. I hated the dark. Just then, I saw a small glowing from the mouth of the cavern, and the other Andalite limped out, carrying the blue box that had gotten us into all this.

I brushed a small wisp of my hair from my face, and went over to Kitty.

"All right, what's going on?" I asked her.

"I really don't know, Loren. I wish I did," she replied softly. That was really the only time I had ever seen her quiet and confused. She was always upbeat and she was a natural leader.

Humans, come, the weak voice of the Andalite came to our ears. Kitty's mom and Uncle Marco were the first to go over to him. Kitty followed, and I was right behind her. Ax moved swiftly to his side. He held out the blue cube, and Uncle Marco and Kitty's mom put their hands on it. At a nod from the kneeling alien, Kitty followed suit, and I didn't have much choice; everyone was waiting for me.

Concentrate on the cube, humans, was all he said. Kitty closed her eyes, then the two adults, and then I did.

The soft blue light filled my whole being. I felt a tingling all over. It almost felt like some sort of energy was going through my whole body. Kitty gasped suddenly, and then it was gone. We all opened our eyes, to find that nothing had changed.

"What just happened?" I demanded.

You have been given our most sacred technology, came the calm reply. You, and you, he gestured towards Kitty's mom and Uncle Marco, already had this technology. You two, though, did not, he said. They will explain it to you.

Brother? Ax's speech filled my head with anxiety and fear; he was afraid. He controlled his speech better after, and I couldn't hear his following words.

The smaller Andalite fell to the ground. Ax knelt by him, and put his tail-blade on the other one's body. He stirred a bit, and opened his eyes.

It is my time, nothlit, I must go. With that, his eyes closed, and he went limp.

No, not yet... I couldn't hear beyond those words. Ax's grief was very great. We could almost feel it. If Andalites could cry, I think he would have.

Please review the story. And don't be afraid to point out any mistakes.
