FINAL CHAPTER! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Teasers to the final section of the saga below...

Chapter Nine

Nikkei

The cloak shield flickered back on eventually; I myself was surprised that the Yeerks didn't spot us during the ten minutes we weren't cloaked. We had landed in the middle of a forest, a forest I believed to be the place where Ax lived.

The sky was dark, and something seemed vaguely familiar in the rain. I know, I sound like a psycho.

>Bobby!>

"Damn! We're too late…" I yelled.

"What?" Stephanie and Al asked at the same time.

"He's looking for the kid… damn…" I ran, focusing on the falcon that lived inside of me.

As soon as I began to shrink and sprout my wings, I launched into the air, barely able to fly as the rest of the transformation finished.

>TOBIAS! IT'S A TRAP! ONCE YOU GET THE KID ANOTHER BIRD ATTACKS AND YOU GET KNOCKED OUT! TAYLOR IS BACK!>

>Huh?>

I swooped down and grabbed the kid, difficultly hauling him into a clearing. >It's Nikkei. Get the kid's dad. I'll find the bird.>

>Got it.> A slight movement; Tobias left.

>Bobby? Is that your name?> A nod. >We'll get you out of here. I promise.>

Al galloped into the clearing, Stephanie riding on his back.

"Will you tell us what— Who's the kid?"

>Book-freaking-43. That Bobby kid or whatever his name is. The one Tobias saves.>

"And this is bad… why?"

>Not the saving itself. What happens after he saves the kid?>

"That eagle thing hits him… and Taylor finds him— God, this sucks. Wait a minute… Bobby?"

>I got his dad,> Tobias called.

>Get out of here!> I barked at Al and Stephanie. Al galloped away quickly, but the father guy got there before Stephanie could hide.

The dad stopped. "Stephanie?"

"Dad?"

I stared at the two. >Oh, beautiful.>

Tee-hee. I am evil. Cliffie! Okay, here's the teaser...

“I’m sorry I cannot go more in-depth. But it is my duty to my friends, and to you, to keep it a secret and protect your life.”

He sighed. I know my mom would have pushed harder, but what happened next surprised me.

"So. You're one of the Animorphs? And the one you call Al is the great prince Elfangor…"

"Will someone please tell me what is going on!" Bobby signed.

A/N: If you love Star Wars, I have begun to write Star Wars fics and ficlets, so check 'em out, okay?

REVIEW RESPONCES

Janika: No, I haven't seen "Supervolcano," but that sounds kewl. Oh, trust me, the next part is much funnier, though it does get a bit dark at the end. Think Star Wars. (Bows to George Lucas)
