Raylor had finally gotten some time away. Away from the investigation teams, away from Iliop... Now, he was walking down the street in his human morph. Still getting the hang of two legs, he was wobbling, and bumping into people. He was looking at the surroundings, not knowing what to think. Earth was a lot different from the home world. And, no one picked on him. He was awestruck by everything, as he stared and walked at the same time. Then, for like the thousandth time that day,he fell flat on his face...

Jae walked silently down the street, having no trouble as she did. She looked over as she heard someone fall and smiled a little, guessing exactly what was going on. She walked over and helped him up. "Are you alright?" She looked down at him as she helped him to his feet, then steadied him.

Raylor looked at the girl who had helped him up and steadied him. "Yes-ess...I am fine, thank you. I am getting used to it actually...lee lee la la la lo lo lo.....Sorry....I have not had much practice morphing, yet. My name is Raylor-Tyress-Estlinn," He said, fighting back the urge to play with his sounds again. He used his hand to brush his long hair out of his face.

Jae smiled and chuckled a little. "You should not play with the mouth sounds so much. Humans tend to be wary of those that do. I am Jaealimi Vegath Iroth. Come. I know where we can demorph." She started walking with him, keeping him steady.

"It's nice meeting you. I know humans think it's weird, but I can't help my self." He was warming up to her quickly, which was odd, especially for Raylor. He really was apprehensive of demorphing in front of her. He walked with her, hoping that when he did demorph, she wouldn't say anything about the reddish-brown fur on his legs and tail. "Thanks for the help," Raylor said gently, his mouth twitching as he fought the powerful urges to play with the sounds some more.

She smiled and looked up at him. "It is quite all right. I saw one of my own kind having trouble, it would have been awful of me not to help. Especially since I have not seen another Andalite in many years."

Raylor smiled back at her; it felt weird, since it was his first time smiling. "I admit it is good to see another Andalite that isn't laughing at me, or asking me about...." he trailed off, his voice quivering, and he felt tears well up in his human eyes. He wasn't sure he was ready to talk about why he was on earth just yet, he had repeated the story for the investigation teams several times. He didn't want to go through telling it again...Not yet, anyway.

She frowned a little. "What is wrong?" She cocked her head to the side.

Raylor didn't know why, but he wanted to tell her. "Okay, I'll tell," he said, tears rolling down his human face. "Let me demorph first..." He did, and he didn't care about his "condition" at that moment. <My parents and I were going on a distress call, they had just let me use the Escafil Device. It was my first mission, our first as a family. On the way there, the ship was shot down. I am the only survivor. The investigation team said they didn't know what shot them down. And here I am....> He turned all four of his eyes away and looked at the ground.

She didn't notice the discoloration or the people staring at him as he demorphed. She demorphed with him and reached over, touching his chin and turning his head back to her. <What happened is nothing to be ashamed of. No matter what the others say.>

When she turned Raylor's head back to look at her, he didn't fight it. He looked at her, and listened. <Thanks, I know, but it's so difficult sometimes....Two days ago, I was with my parents, looking forward to my first mission. Now, I'm on another planet...no family. I just don't know how to cope...>

She lowered her head. <It is difficult.> She looked back at him. <I lost my mother a long time ago. I have been stranded here the entire time.>

Raylor, too lowered his head. She was in a similiar situation. He now felt bad, not just for himself, but for her. He was still bent on avenging his family...he didn't know if he would ever get over that...his family was all had, now he had noting. Now, he had found a friend with a similiar story. He wanted to help her... <I am so sorry to hear that. If there's anything I can do, let me know...>

She looked up at him, a little eager. <Tell me... tell me of home... what is happening there?> She stepped towards him, wanting badly to know.

<Home...> Raylor said the word dreamily. Even though everyone gave him a hard time there, he still missed it. It was all he knew before the crash. <It's the same it's been for as long as I can remember. There have been technological advancements, but I am not one who keeps up with things like that. The last time I was there it was no different, it was still as beautiful as ever. I never got along with many of the Andalites there, but I still miss it...Someday, I would like to go back...> At this, he seemed to drift off, his mind wanting to be back on the home world, running free, instead of dealing with all of the drama he now faced on earth...
