Rachel waved at Tobias to show she had gotten his reassurance of no Yeerks. Then, she explained.
"Yes, that's Tobias. I really dunno what happened, I just showed up at the barn and there he was with Marco. Then some random kid named Jamal showed up, and he was carrying the-erm, I guess, A morphing cube. I start questioning him, and he says that he heard Cassie talking to Marco about a missing cube. He heard something about the Yeerks. Then Ax shows up and nearly shoves his tailblade up Jamal's nose, thinking Jamal is a Controller. Jamal said something about cinnamon buns, and then Ax was convinced Jamal wasn't a Controller. But then Jamal said something about someone who looked like an older version of you, Jake--Tom, of course--and a few people were following him. Then Marco took Jamal to the King's house, to hide the cube. I came with Tobias to find you, and Ax was supposed to come, but he didn't, there was no time to wait."
Rachel took a deep breath after her long explanation, ducked under Jake's arms so that they were no longer at her shoulders, and said. "Now, I think we need to make Jamal an Animorph. He's learned enough already. Seen Ax in his Andalite form, seen the cube, seen all of us."
