On the way up the elevator I discovered that I could fold my wings back, like paper to fit inside my cloak without any obvious lumps. I kept them that way, as fantastic as they were I think I'd wait to suprise a few people with them. After jumping through the portal that lead to the bored board I saw a comfortably furnished room with a sound system, a massive TV, and bean bags as far as the eye could see.
The place was crowded but the room seemed to slowly grow as more people poured in. Next to the TV was a completely normal looking door with the word "Battledome" printed neatly above. I tapped Rukh who was still looking around in amazement and pointed out the door. Without a word we both started jogging toward it. Right in front of the door two boys I didn't recognize appeared in front of me.
One was dressed as the terminator, and the other one looked like Anakin Skywalker. The terminator said in a fake accent "We challenge you to a battle!" I stared at him for about 30 seconds. And coolly said "Does the battledome even allow two on two fights?" He seemed less confident after I said that. Probably waiting there for a while waiting to pull it on some nervous newbies.

The terminator wannabe recovered and replied with a little attitude, "I'm ArnoldSN and this is AnikenFan178. So what are we waiting for lets battle!" Without another word he walked through the door and disappeared into darkness. Before following him I asked Aniken a question.
"Have either of you even read an animorphs book?" He looked at me curiously and replied "What's an animorph?" Without waiting for an answer he walked in after his friend. Rukh and I grinned at each other. This was going to be fun.
