The Sario Effect - Preview
This is a little text experiment. To see how fanfiction goes about in tumblr. And a bit of a motivation boast to me?
Long story short: this was posted months ago in FFN and AO3 but because of the lack of responses after the prologue, it completely devastated me to the point I felt I should stop. Thankfully, Artisan219, the author of Animorphs Reboot, gave me the courage and motivation to rethink, restructure and rewrite my fanfic. 
The work is still in progress, along with artwork to go together with it. But it’s a work I’m grateful to do and admittedly a bit scared - that it might not be interesting again no matter how many times I change the story. So hence, testing the waters.
I welcome feedback btw. I really REALLY wanna improve this fanfic tenfolds and if anything feels off about the writing or characterization, or a lot of things, then please let me know. It helps me tremendously.
For now, enjoy the preview.
“It’s been more than a year,” Cassie broke the silence. Her smile was small but it grew wider, slowly spreading towards us like an infection.
“Man, a year. We’ve been through a lot of crazy stuff,” Marco said. “How are we alive?”
“I still remember what you said,” Rachel droned. “Idiot teenagers with a death wish.”
“Ah, but now we’re idiot teenagers and an alien cadet with a death wish.”
“I beg to differ,” Ax protested.
“On the idiot or death wish part?” He shrugged with a relaxed grin. “Still, we’ve gotten out of worse things on top.”
I couldn’t deny that. We’ve had our moments. We disagreed, got into danger on a regular basis and somehow, we managed to pull it off. It actually made days like this that more special.
A whole year of an adrenaline-filled, terrifying, fur-feather-covered roller coaster ride. But there were also some good times. Short. But still good.
“Yeah…” I said-
FLASH!
<Where did you find that dodecahedron?> Ax demanded once more.
The Asian-American girl calmly shoved the blade away from her throat. Unfazed by the sharpness. "How should we know? This is the first time we've heard of this device."
<B-But you're the one who brought it to us!> Marco hollered.
"Why?"
Good question.
"We are your enemy."
FLASH!
"Jake? Jaaake!"
“Huh?” I jumped. Rachel was suddenly standing so close to me with a slight annoyed look.
“You spaced out there. You ok?”
Ok?
Was I ok?
No.
I knew what I saw.
"Looks like we have company," Tobias informed.
Sure enough, behind us was a kid standing at the site’s entrance.
My body stiffened. I shouldn’t worry about what I saw right now. There was no telling if this was a Controller passing by. I glanced at the others. They nodded, knowing what I wanted them to do.
“Alright, enough sightseeing.” Marco ringed his arm around Ax’s neck. Just act normal. “How about we go get you something yummy? That always cheer you up.”
“All the time, you mean,” Rachel added, trying to perk up. “Plan to invite him over to dinner?”
“Dinner?” Ax’s eyes glimmered brightly. “Do I get to eat a lot of food like I did at Jake’s house?”
“Now look what you did!” Marco barked. “Ugh, wonder if Dad hasn’t called in takeout yet.”
Even as we were leaving, the kid didn’t move. I realized closer that she was a girl.
Not like Rachel or Cassie on first impression. Her clothing wasn’t extremely causal or extremely fashionable, just right down the middle. The most noticeable things I spotted were a knit cap over her medium black hair and a yellow zipped parka.
I...glanced...at...her face...
The hair on the back of my neck stood on ends the longer I looked at this girl.
She wasn’t familiar. Never seen or met her before. So I shouldn’t be scared of her. She was a complete stranger to me.
But she looked chillingly like the girl from my ‘vision’.
No...she was that girl.
“Wait,” Cassie said. “Aren’t you El?”
“El?” Rachel uttered, sounding like she also knew her. The name sounded familiar but I couldn’t put my finger on it.
The girl gave a hard stare. Like she was on a very important mission.
She was staring at me.
“Hey, Jake. Are you alright?” I heard Marco.
I couldn’t stop shaking.
Why was the girl from my vision here?
Why did I even have a vision of this girl?!
And there was one thing this girl said in that vision.
We are your enemy.
