Rachel glanced up at the newcomer and then from him to Jacob.
"You two related or something?", she asked hearing the older mans words. She wished she had family here. Or maybe not. Her family really wasn't cut out for wars! Unless you counted her cousin, Jake. He was cut out for this! She wished the 'oh so fearless leader of the Animorphs' - like Marco would put it - was here. But at least Tobias had showed up, she though smiling now. He said a few weird things, but the most important thing was that he was here, right? She had missed him the most of all.
"I'm Rachel by the way", she introduced herself and smiled up at the two men. They were both tall. Luckily she was tall for her age as well, or she would have seemed tiny next to Jacob.
