[The picture's upside-down at first, and in extreme closeup, showing just one eye. Then it rights itself and pulls back, to reveal a very small Andalite

[He does not recognize this place. It seems similar to Earth, but he was taken from there, should not be there--even as a corner of his mind rails against that, yes, yes, he should be there--but before he has enough time to panic, the strange device chimes at him, and he feels both relieved at the familiarity of his little brother and instantly far more worried, on account of not knowing his brother's whereabouts.]
< Aximili! > [He resists confirming that he too does not know where they are, not wishing to cause his brother any further alarm.] < Can you give me any indication of your location? >
< I am not certain of what this place is, although it does seem reminiscent of Earth. >
[He's already running out the door of the strange building he'd found himself in, wasting no time in his search for his brother. Everything seems much shorter and narrower than the houses he'd come to be familiar with during his time on Earth. But perhaps that is a side-effect of being in Andalite form rather than human, although he suspects this is not the case.
He rushes past a small group of humans, who squawk out noises of fright, one shouting something that sounds very much like devil!]
< Aximili, what is the last thing you recall before finding yourself here? >
< I was at home, with mother and father. You are supposed to be away at war. >
[He does realize that things are not as they ought to be; how could he not? This strange human city feels like it is crowding him, and though he has found a place where there is grass, and room to run, he does not feel at ease.]
< Do you think that-- > [He does not know how to ask discreetly.] < Are we in danger, big brother? >
[Supposed to be, yes, but that does not give him any indication of why they are here. Is this more meddling by the hand of the Ellimist? If so, what is his purpose in this? Whatever it is, it makes Elfangor uneasy. But he cannot bear for Aximili to share in that uneasiness, and so he tries best he can to dispel his worries.]
< I do not think so. If we were on the Taxxon world, then you should worry. > [An attempt at humor, but he is not certain it comes across all that well, so he presses on.] < I am going to find you, little brother. Just remain where you are. Everything will be fine. >
[All four of Ax's eyes widen at that. The Taxxon world? He does not know much about it, but what he does know makes him very, very certain that even his brother, the great hero, would have a hard time surviving for long there.]

< I do not believe so, no. > [He gives his brother a reassuring smile, tilting his stalk eyes in a cocksure manner, though it is mostly for effect.] < Besides, even if there were any around, I would put some tail to them. As I said, no need to worry. >
[Even as Elfangor says this, he approaches the park, swiftly scanning the area. Aha, there he is!] < Aximili! >

[Ax gives a silent giggle, quickly stifled, as if he is not quite sure he ought to be laughing, when Elfangor says he will put some tail to them.
His brother's arrival surprises him enough that he stumbles trying to turn around, and falls over. He clambers back to his feet quickly, fur fluffing all over again.]
< It does not look exactly like the images of Earth I have seen, > [he says, in as businesslike a way as he can manage, pretending his clumsiness did not happen.]
< Aximili! > [He resists confirming that he too does not know where they are, not wishing to cause his brother any further alarm.] < Can you give me any indication of your location? >

< Big brother! >
[His fur fluffs a little after this outburst, and he tries to seem grown-up and capable, even though he is very small.]
< I am in a human park. I was looking for something to eat. Where are we? >
