"Look for a good spot to land," Kiki said to Kyle. "We are getting close to the no-fly zone." Kiki kept one eye on the controls of the bug fighter and one eye on the scenery in front of her. Sure, the ship's instruments would tell her if she was in danger of crashing into anything, but flying low through mountains made her nervous enough to want to double-check things with her own two eyes. Her flying skills had become a lot less rusty lately, but she was still far from an expert pilot. "Oh. Over there looks like it could work." Kiki made the required adjustments and the ship responded by slowly gliding down onto a rock outcropping. She sheered of the top of a cactus on the way down, but it was otherwise a smooth landing. The two animorphs were currently on a scouting mission in the mountainous desert wilderness of Arizona. They were south of Phoenix and west of Tuscon, far from any major signs of civilization. Word had it that some hikers had spotted something in the area. Some sort of structure being built. What it was, who was building it, or if it was even true were all up for debate. But Eric thought it was at least worth looking into, so that is what they were doing. "We should be okay to exit now," Kiki said as she checked one last time to make sure everything was in order. "Just make sure not to forget where we parked. This thing is cloaked." And with that, Kiki opened the ship up to the outside and warm desert air rolled in.
