Disclaimer- i dont own Animorphs jus nebula and this plot.
Jake
I paced back and forth occasionally; Marco threw an idea or piece of hay at me.
We needed another animorph but after David, i wasn't sure new recruits would be a completely good idea.
"okay how about this" I started stopping in front of the door (what if an idea fell out of the sky) Tobias asked his voice slightly high "that would be nice" I muttered running my hand through my hair giving Tobias a look.
(No seriously, I'd advise you to move something is falling out of the sky) Tobias said this time looking at me "I don't have time for this sh-oof" I said falling flat on my face as something heavy landed on me.
(Told ya) Tobias muttered angrily. I pushed whatever it was off me and rolled over.
Some red headed dude was lying on the floor out cold. (he cannot be a yeerk he fell from the sky unless they threw him out of the ship but that would not make since) ax said walking out of one of the horse stalls why he was in there I don't know.
Marco was on the floor next to him checking his pulse, "ohh nice watch" he said making a low whistle the boy was wearing a silver watch with red rubies surrounding the clock part. Rachel slapped Marco's hand away glaring at him "back of" she snapped.
"I was doing nothing wrong" Marco said rubbing his hand "right and you were just trying to get a look at his watch off of his hand" she said sitting next to him on the floor.
"well yes" Marco said earning another glare from Rachel he shrugged. "guys knock it off" I said they both stopped "bring him over here" cassie said walking over to a long hospital looking table.
Marco and I lifted the boy up him holding shoulders me feet. We dropped him on the table not very gently oops Marco said as we heard a thump as the boys head hit the table.
Marco smiled sheepishly and shrugged again Rachel smacked him over the side of his head. "Oww what was that for?" he asked, "Do you need to ask?" Rachel and I said in unison.
Cassie rolled her eyes and Tobias laughed. Ax touched the side of the boys head with the flat side of his tail blade. Suddenly the boy jumped and his eyes opened.
Cassie
The boy's eyes opened to reveal shocking brown ember colored eyes. He looked at me with recognition in his eyes he sat up and swung his feet over the side of the table.
"Im gonna...Oh I can't believe her" he muttered clenching his fist and glaring angrily at the ground.
"Umm" Rachel looked at me and cocked here head at the kid talking to himself. "Who are you?" I asked smirking at her. "me ohh my name is da-ton" he said smiling at me
"Dayton" Rachel asked skeptically "yea" he said crossing his arms "got a problem" he asked leaning back against the wall behind the table.
"Well not really but if you want me to" Rachel said leaving the threat open. Jake gave Rachel a look and she rolled her eyes and apologized.
"Okay um Dayton why did you fall out of the sky" Jake asked his hands in his pockets and back straight. "Cause Nebula has a weird sense of humor" he answered honestly we all looked at each other confused that is except ax, ax looked pale well pale blue that is. "What" I asked him (nebula)? Ax asked his eyes widening "you've heard of her" Dayton asked looking at ax.
(She is the sister of crayak yes I have heard of her) at the mention of crayak, everyone tensed then stared at Dayton with a guarded expression. "she's good sort of" Dayton said putting his hands up in a sign of peace "I uh come in peace" he said in a humorful voice. Marco smirked "he can't be all bad if he jokes" Marco said relaxing slightly.
"He knows someone related to crayak for all we know he wants us all dead" Jake said darkly glaring at Dayton. "Before we do anything drastic," I said stepping in front of Jake and Dayton I felt his knees on my back and quickly moved up blushing.
Rachel raised an eyebrow at me but didnt say anything nobody else caught the blush I think. "we have to ask him uh something questions" I said turning to face him he was handsome dark red eyebrows carefully arched dark red eyes tannish red brown skin, and shoulder length slightly curly dark red hair. "Yes?" he asked glancing at me curiously before looking at Jake.
"Okay I have one," Rachel said from next to me "what or who are you". "im a boy who was on his last ounce of strength, she nebula saved me and gave me a choice live and help you or die and never be helpful" he said his voice turning soft and his eyes going haunted at whatever memory he had.
"Wow that was quite helpful we did need another member but how do we know you're not a yeerk or working for crayak" Jake asked crossing his arms unintentionally I think flexing his muscles. "Uh because" he said searching for something to say when suddenly the room went quiet. All the birds and other various animals at the barn were still.
BECAUSE I SAID SO said a voice feminine and sounding vaguely familiar. A woman around my height stepped out of a horse stall she was barefoot and was dressed in al black even her anklet, which looked to have small skulls on it, was black. She looked like a more beautiful female version of Dayton.
"And just who are you" Rachel snapped angrily faster then I could blink the woman was in front of Rachel holding her up by her shirt and glaring murder in her eyes. DON'T EVER TAKE THAT TONE WITH ME she snapped angrily APOLOGIZE she demanded bringing Rachel closer to her face.
"im sorry" Rachel said looking slightly scared I never saw her look like that THANKYOU the woman said her demeanor changing into that of happiness she gently put Rachel down and skipped yes skipped over to where Dayton sat hopping onto the table.
OKAY I'LL TELL YOU EVERYTHING WELL NOT EVERYTHING she said placing a hand on her chin OKAY I'LL TELL YOU MOST OF IT she said smiling at us.
