Where Tobias lives and feeds, and where Ax's scoop is located.

Jamie was flying through the skies in red-tailed hawk morph, searching for Tobias. What she found was a blue, stalk-eyed deer instead, running through the forest. She landed in a tree. <Ax-man!> she said. <I was in the neighborhood and I wanted to check how things were rollin'.>
Ax blinked all four of his stalk eyes, one at a time. <Things are rolling as they always are, Jamie,> he said. <Nothing has altered the laws of physics in this area. Thank you for checking.>
Jamie thought-laughed hysterically. She loved it when he did that. <Well, anyway, you wanna go into town and chow down on some buns?>
<As you humans say, "Totally!">
<I have something weird to tell you anyway,> she told him.
A red-tailed hawk landed in the tree nearby. Tobias glimpsed his sister talking to Ax, she always had fun with him. <Hey guys,> he asked. <How's it hanging?>
Ax sighed. <Why must you insist on asking inane questions? Everything is rolling fine and everything is hanging fine. There is nothing wrong with physics here, although I appreciate your concern.>
<Human cliché, Ax-man,> Jamie said. <Human clichés, as always. Now, let's go get them buns! Just do your harrier morph, and head for the mall...then the world will be ours.>
<I do not wish for the world. I only wish for buns,> Ax said, beginning his harrier morph. <Jamie, what were you saying about something weird?>
<I keep having these visions,> she told Ax. <I see this ship. It's shaped like a mushroom, with a dome on top. Like the dome we found you in on the bottom of the ocean. And it's in this three-way battle against a Yeerk Blade ship and some...pyramid ship. And there's this girl. I think she's Andalite...she's all alone on this planet. And...afraid of something. I can't tell what it is.>
Tobias was worried. After all he'd been having the same images. But only once did he have the vision, <I had the same vision but only once. How many times did you have it?>
<Only once,> Jamie replied. <Maybe it's just because it's a full moon tonight and the werewolves will be out.> She laughed.
<What is a werewolf?> Ax wondered, flapping his wings.
<It's a person who turns into a wolf during every full moon,> Tobias explained. He spiraled upwards seeking out a thermal.
<But lunar light and solar light are the same, are they not?> Ax pointed out, following Tobias. <Why, then, would such humans transform into wolves at that time?>
<Human lore, Ax-man,> Jamie said. <It's not real. People don't really turn into wolves...> Then she realized she has done exactly that. <Well, you can scratch that.> She followed Tobias. She and her brother were the Animorphs' best fliers; they had a lot of practice.
