The Fall of Five
The Fall of Five, the 4th book of The Lorien Legacies, was published on August 27, 2013.

After facing off with the Mogadorian ruler and almost being annihilated, the Garde know they are drastically unprepared and hopelessly outgunned. Now they’re hiding out in Nine’s Chicago penthouse, trying to figure out their next move.The six of them are powerful, but they’re not strong enough yet to take on an entire army—even with the return of an old ally : Sam and his dad. To defeat their enemy, the Garde must master their Legacies and learn to work together as a team. More importantly, they’ll have to discover the truth about the Elders and their plan for the Loric survivors.

When the Garde receive a sign from Number Five—a crop circle in the shape of a Loric symbol—they know they are so close to being reunited. But could it be a trap? Time is running out, and the only thing they know for certain is that they have to get to Five before it’s too late. Can Five even be trusted?

The Garde may have lost battles, but they will not lose this war. Lorien will rise again.

I Am Number Four: The Lost Files: Six’s Legacy
I Am Number Four: The Lost Files: Six’s Legacy was published on July 26,2011.

This supplement details the history behind Number Six, showing where she had been living and how she developed her legacies.

The story begins as Six and her Cêpan, Katarina, are heading for Mexico to start a brand-new life. Before Mexico they lived in Denver, where Six went by the name Sheila. Before Denver it was Nova Scotia. They lived in Denver until Six said something to blow their cover and set the Mogadorians on their trail. They begin a new life in Puerto Blanco as a strange white family.

Six trains with Katarina so that she can control her legacies and learn to fight in combat. Katarina uses the internet to monitor what is happening in the world. One day they learn of a bus bombing in London and a web-blog that reads: "Nine, now eight. Are the rest of you out there?" Six and Katarina are the first to respond, just before Six gets her second mark, signifying that Number Two is dead. They leave immediately.

Six and Katarina cross the U.S. border and stay at a hotel in Texas. A Mogadorian shows up and tries to kill Six but thanks to the Lorien charm, the attack rebounds and kills him. They try to escape but another Mogadorian attacks. The Six and Katarina are saved by a couple of men, who hold the Mog at gun point.

Six buries her Chest in the Lake Ouachita State Park in Arkansas and they spend the night there. Later on, they arrive in upstate New York. While watching a romantic movie with Katarina, Six learns that she had a husband on Lorien and also had many other love interests before the Mogadorian invasion. Six thinks about herself falling in love and comes to the conclusion that she will never love anyone who isn't at war against the Mogadorians, even if they don't know about it.

After playing a game of soccer with some other girls, Six returns to the hotel, only to find the Mogadorians waiting for her. Six and Katarina are captured and brought to a secret cave base in West Virginia. Six promises Katarina not to reveal her number and is forced to watch the Mogadorians torture Katarina to death. A long while passes by and Six discovers that she has the power to turn invisible. She uses this power to escape and kill the Mogadorian who was responsible for killing Katarina.

Over the next few years Six goes off on her own. Learning how to control her legacies and how to fight. While in Athens, Georgia, Six sees a video of Number Four leaping out of a burning house and knows he is one of the Garde. She finds a bus station for a ride to Paradise, Ohio, sparking the final events of I Am Number Four.

I Am Number Four: The Lost Files: Nine's Legacy
I Am Number Four: The Lost Files: Nine's Legacy was published on February 28,2012.

When John frees Number Nine from his cell in The Power of Six, he’s ferocious, reckless, and ready to fight back. But being held captive changes a person — even a Loric. See what Nine was like before his capture, and read about his dramatic escape from his point of view.

In I Am Number Four: The Lost Files: Nine’s Legacy, discover the story behind Nine. He was living in a tower in urban Chicago until on day he was stalked by a mog. A couple of years before meeting John Smith, a.k.a. Number Four and before being held prisoner, Nine was hunting down Mogadorians in Chicago with his Cêpan, Sandor. What happened there would change Nine forever…

The story begins as Number Nine, aka Stanley Worthington, tricks a Mogadorian into entering an elevator of the John Hancock Center with him and uses the defense systems to kill him. Sandor, Nine's Cêpan, becomes upset and has Nine clean up the Mog's ashes. Later on, Nine and Sandor discuss the incident. It is revealed that Nine and Sandor have been living in Chicago for over five years and have set up shop in a two-floor penthouse at the John Hancock Center building. Nine trains with Sandor's robotic machines and lives pretty much isolated from the world. Before all of this, they were on the road a lot. Living in hotels and eating off of fast-food restaurants. Then Sandor believed they should start hiding in plain sight, which brought them to Chicago.

Sandor decides on having Nine going to a sprawling rec center called the Windy City Hall, in order for him to interact with others. While there, Nine sees a girl who becomes interested in him, which causes him to lose focus while climbing the climbing wall. When he looks for her, she's gone.

Nine talks about her to Sandor, who convinces him to return to the rec center the next day. When he returns, he finds that the girl isn't there but he is able to improve on his climbing skills. But at the end of the day he finds her outside the rec center and learns that her name is Maddy. Nine is given her number before she leaves. Nine fears getting too close and believes he is making a mistake with this girl. Sandor convinces him to call her, reminding him that even though he can't escape who he is, he can still try to be somebody else. Nine, convinced of his Cêpan's words, calls her and they begin a relationship.

Nine and Maddy go on their first date together. They go to the planetarium, where Nine learns that Maddy is living home alone, while her parents are out of town on business. Later on, Nine tries to hold Maddy's hand, but she pulls back. After Nine walks her home, Sandor starts making fun of Nine about his time with Maddy. Nine later gets a text from her, telling him to pick the place next time.

The second date came, and Sandor allowed Nine to drive one of his fancy cars. Things went well at first, they went bad not long after. When he picked up Maddy, he accidentally rammed a van in front of them full of Mogadorians. A highway speed chase occurs but Nine is able to lose them. Maddy stormed out of the car after Nine kissed her, and left. To make matters worse, Sandor had been monitoring the whole thing and was now planning to leave the city. Nine storms out of the JHC building out of anger. While alone, Nine receives a text from Maddy, who wants to see him.

Nine goes to see Maddy and is seemingly forgiven. He spends the night with her and doesn't leave. In the morning, he is surrounded by Mogadorians and is captured when Maddy uses a Taser on him. It is revealed that Maddy has been working for the Mogadorians against her will. It is revealed that the Mogadorians are holding Maddy's parents captive, because her father "saw something he wasn't supposed to see". They struck a deal that if she brought them what they wanted they would let her see her parents again. When Nine asks Maddy why she betrayed him and if she ever liked him, she replies that she had to do what she needed to do but she did indeed have feelings for him. Nine finally comes to forgive her and also doesn't blame her for any of it.

Nine and Maddy are taken to a hidden base in a cave of West Virginia. While Maddy is reunited with her parents, a Mog tells Nine that even though they said they would allow her to see her parents, they did not say anything about letting them live. Nine is forced to watch as Maddy and her parents are killed by a piken, to which he vomits and looks away. Later on, Sandor is captured and Nine is forced to watch as they torture him. Nine is able to break free of his bounds and after Sandor pleads Nine to kill him, he kills Sandor to spare him a slow, painful death.

Almost a year passes while Nine is held captive by the Mogadorians. Just as the events of The Power of Six come into play, Nine is rescued by Number Four and Sam Goode. When they escape from the cave, Sam is left behind and Setrákus Ra shows up in his ship at the entrance of the cave. Nine and Four charge at him but are stopped by a blue force field, and Four is wounded upon impact.

The story ends as Four, Nine, and a Chimæra named Bernie Kosar drive up north towards Chicago, with Nine swearing to kill all Mogadorians, including the leader, Setrákus Ra as revenge for the deaths of Maddy and Sandor.

The General reveals that they are to come with him to find the Loric Garde, Number One. They travel to Malaysia and witness the death of One and her Cepan. They return home as One's body is brought along, but leave her Cepan to rot in Malaysia. Adamus is chosen for a special experiment and used to infiltrate the mind of One. Once inside Adam starts to relive the memories to gain personal knowledge of the other hidden Loric children but runs into the ghost of One. Because he was plugged into her mind, her subconscious is now part of his, to which he dreads of.

Adamus learns more about One and discovers that the beliefs of his people are wrong once he saw the aftermath of Lorien's destruction. He also learns that One tried to impress a guy named Wade by shoplifting and was caught by the police. Hilde, One's Cepan, was forced to move them to Malaysia and start over. Again he watched the death of One and came to realize how wrong it was. Adam started to relive the memories again and even relived the ones on the California beach, rewinding the parts when One comes out of the water, to which One doesn't seem to be embarrassed or disturbed by.

Adam is able to wake up back in his bed and finds out that he has been in a coma for over three years. He is immediately pulled back into service as Ivanick and he are sent to London to find Number Two. Once there, Adamus discovers that One is still haunting him and she tries to convince him that he needs to save the Garde. Adam discovers Two's location by tracking a website and deletes it; he traces it to the source and goes off to find her. Once he finds Two, he tries to convince her that he's here to help and that they needed to move fast. Ivanick arrives and kills her first, believing that Adam didn't have the guts to do it. Adamus goes home sad about his failure to help her.

Over the next few years Adam grows more distant from his family and his kind. He comes to see them as evil monsters who want to destroy everything in the universe. Number Three is found in Kenya and Adam is once again teamed up with Ivanick to track him. They spend a few weeks in Kenya and discover that Three is kid named Hannu. Ivanick and a gang of Mogadorians plan to attack in the middle of the night, which promotes Adamus to try and warn Three. However, he is stopped by Ivanick, who believes that he is trying to claim the glory of the kill first, and he tries to convince Ivanick to turn away from the Mogadorians. Adamus fails as he is forced to fight Ivanick. Using the skills he remembered from the memories of One, Adamus is able to defeat Ivanick and chase after Three. Adamus watches from a distance as Three is killed by the General on the other side of a ravine. Unknown to Adam, Ivanick has awaken from the fight and pushes him over the edge of the ravine, falling to the rushing water and rocks below.

Adamus finds himself in California, under the sun with One right by him. One desperately tries to convince him to awaken from his unconsciousness-state and survive the ravine. Adamus's fate is left unknown as the story ends with a cliffhanger.

Adamus Sutekh survives his fall into the ravine and is nursed back to health in the village and works as a volunteer for the next few following months. Number One's ghost still continues to visit Adam and the two grow closer to each other. One tries to convince Adam is to find the remaining Garde and join them, but Adam refuses believing himself to be weak and useless. Later on, Adam tries to find out more information about his family's whereabouts but comes up with nothing. He later starts to realize that One has been disappearing more than usual.

One later reveals that her ghostly image is fading away and that soon she may disappear for good. Fearing for One's well-being Adamus gets help from a friend of his and is able to make it back to Ashwood. Only his mother greets him with love, while his father treats him like a hostile. It is revealed that the General and Ivanick covered up Adamus's betrayal and made it look like he was killed by Number Three. Adamus makes a deal with him that he will give him a week to prove his usefulness or he will be killed. Adam finds life back in Ashwood hard as everyone sees him as a failure. His own sister, Kelly, knows the truth about his betrayal and doesn't see or talk to him anymore.

While working as a Surveyor, Adamus meets Dr. Zarkos, Dr. Anu's replacement, who has improved the mid transfer technology. During dinner with his mother and father, Adam manages to trick the General to put him back into the project as a lab rat. In Dr. Zarkos's lab, Adamus meets Malcolm Goode, father of Sam Goode, who is the only survivor of Dr. Zarkos's experiments. During the first experiment, Adam experiences the memory of when Hilde, One's Cepan, died and feels One's emotions for the first time. But the experiment is cut short and Adam is unsuccessful in trying to save One. Dr. Zarkos expresses that he thinks if he could kill Adamus while under the experiment he may be able to get the memories, but would need the approval of the General first.

Meanwhile, One starts to get worse by the minute. She starts to disappear more often than the other times before. Adamus finds information on some humans who may know where the Garde is, but deletes the information. The General finds out and plans to have him killed, Dr. Zarkos uses the opportunity to ask the General for permission to use him on the experiment. Adam awaits execution and is visited by his mother who found out about his betrayal from the General. When she asks him if it was true he replies with "yes" and she walks away without another word, which infuriates Adam.

Adamus is able to kill Dr. Zarkos before he can perform the experiment and releases Malcolm. Adamus performs the experiment on himself and is somehow able to survive it. He meets up with One in his dream-like state and talks with her. One reveals that there was no way to save her and that she needed him to see the real side of his family in order for him to fully side with the Garde. One then transfers her powers into Adam so that he didn't have to feel weak or useless. Adamus professes his love for One and they share a kiss, just before One disappears forever.

Adamus awakens in the woods with Malcolm, who is trying to remember his life before. He tells Adam that they were able to escape Ashwood with the help of an earthquake. Adam admits that he was responsible for that and reveals he is a Mogadorian, which Malcolm jokes about and accepts at the same time. The two travel back to Paradise, Ohio so that Malcolm can find his son, Sam. Along the way, Malcolm helps Adam train and becomes a mentor to him. When they arrive in Paradise they find the aftermath of a battle from the events of The Power of Six and discover that Sam has joined the Garde. Malcolm tries to reconcile with his wife but is kicked out of the house. Adam and him journey down to a hidden cave, just below the garden and spend the night there. Adamus calculates that Sam is mostly probably being held at a secret government base in New Mexico, something he heard about back in Ashwood. Both Adam and Malcolm immediately drive for New Mexico. They arrive at the secret base, just in time as the final events of The Rise of Nine are taking place. They break in and find Sam imprisoned in a cage with the help of a soldier. Ivanick shows up with a Mogadorian army and Adamus uses his gift to help Malcolm and Sam escape, but he remains behind to fight off Ivanick. Adamus is able to kill Ivanick and the Mogadorians by causing the armoury to explode with the help of his earthquake ability, but is wounded in the process.

Adamus concludes that he will survive the battle and meet up with his newfound allies, the Garde.

I Am Number Four: The Lost Files: The Last Days of Lorien
I Am Number Four: The Lost Files: The Last Days of Lorien was published on April 9, 2013. Harpercollins describes it as a "stunning prequel novella to the New York Times bestselling I Am Number Four series". It is set on Lorien before it was attacked by the Mogadorians, and is told from the perspective of Sandor (Nine's Cêpan).

There is only one place that Sandor fits in, a dancing club called The Chimaera. Despite being too young to enter the club, Sandor was able to fool security by using his engineering skills to change the age on his ID band. While having fun, Sandor spots one of his teachers from school, Endym, and tries to escape out the back door. Sandor bursts into a dressing room and meets a famous Garde named Devektra, who is known for her dancing and manipulation of sound and light waves. They chat for a while and he gets to listen to her sing on stage from the balcony. When Devektra leaves suddenly, Sandor tries to go after her but is caught by Endym, who reports him to the school council.

Sandor's parents video conference into the meeting with Sandor's principal. Sandor is expelled and given two options for his future. He could be a Munis apprentice (city maintenance) hauling garbage for the rest of his life or working in a Kabarak (farm) for a few years weeding and digging. His father decides he will go to a Karbarak. When preparing to leave, Sandor is approached by Brandon a Mentor Cêpan, who offers him a place at the Lorien Defense Academy doing engineering. Deciding it was better than farming, Sandor accepts the offer. While at the LDA, Sandor becomes friends with Rapp the other engineering student and warms up to the academy.

Those who live at the academy believe in an ancient prophecy, made by the original Nine Elders, that Lorien will be attacked and destroyed by an unknown enemy when they least expect it. While the rest of Lorien believes it to be a myth, many at the academy believe it to be true. the Elders are the highest authority in all of Lorien and protect it from hostile forces. Pitticus Lore, the most powerful Elder, is considered to be the most mysterious but well-known Elder of the nine.

While on grid maintenance (which protects the city from aerial attack) in the city with Rapp, Sandor meets Devektra again, who invites him to hear her sing at the Chimaera for the Quartermoon celebration. Sandor and Rapp notice the grid is in very bad repair and there is a weird light in the sky dismissed by Sandor as a Quartermoon decoration. While still in the city, Sandor meets a Cêpan named Daxin who borrows the vehicle Sandor and Rapp are using, with Sandor going to drive. Sandor and Rapp are the only ones programmed to be able to use this vehicle so Sandor goes with Daxin. During the trip, Sandor learns that the Elders have been out of reach for a few days, the grid was failing all over the city, and the bright light may not be a Quartermoon decoration. This worries Sandor. Daxin meets his Garde and gives him a large identity band to match his own and syncs them together.

On the Quartermoon, Sandor sneaks out and goes to the Chimaera by stealing Daxin's ID band. Sandor is summoned by Devektra and goes to her dressing room. Devektra expresses that she senses something is going to go wrong and that she worries for the dark night ahead of them. Sandor communicates with her through telepathy and learns that she likes him because he is like her, somebody who doesn't fit. Sandor and Devektra kiss. When Sandor opens his eyes, Devektra has left.

Sandor watches from the balcony as Devektra sings to the crowd a simple sad song without her usual fancy display. His ID band vibrates and says alert which he ignores. The song is for Lorien. When she finishes the song, the roof of the building collapses on the crowd. When reaching the outside, Sandor realizes that the planet is under attack. Before going back to the academy, Sandor meets Devektra again. Sandor and Devektra hug. She explains that she knows they will never see each other again and plans on going to meet up with some Garde friends to battle the invaders. They both say goodbye and depart.

Arriving at the academy, Sandor finds the place destroyed and everyone dead. Brandon arrives and takes a shocked Sandor with him. Brandon explains that an alien race known as the Mogadoriens have invaded their planet. All the Elders, except for Loridas and Pittacus Lore (who is missing), are dead. Arriving at the space station, where there are eight chosen Garde being evacuated off planet, Brandon tells Sandor that he can't come and that it is all about saving their entire race now. Daxin was supposed to be there with his Garde to make up nine Garde and Mentors. Sandor is overcome with remorse for Daxin's Garde who was supposed to live.

Taking a chance, Sandor uses Brandon's vehicle to go get the young Garde who is to become number Nine. Nine's grandpa tells Sandor that Nine will be very important and that he will be important also but that he will die. After leaving, Sandor and Nine are attacked by a Mogadorien but are saved by an unseen Devektra who has found them. When they arrive at the space station, Sandor hands over Nine to Brandon. Sandor watches as Nine takes part in a ceremony the Elder Loridas is performing. Then he turns away to join the perimeter guard. Brandon stops him and tells him that he must go with them because Nine needs a Cêpan and the bond between them has taken place.

After waiting to see if any survived the attack the captain takes them to Earth. We skip ahead a month into the year long journey to Earth. Sandor talks with Hessu who explains to him the Loric charm which makes the Loric children only able to be killed in order of their number. Hessu is very bitter and cynical expecting all of them to die. Sandor thinks that Earth can't be as bad as Hessu thinks. He goes to have his One on One session with Nine where he agrees to play with Nine.

I Am Number Four: The Lost Files: The Forgotten Ones
I Am Number Four: The Lost Files: The Forgotten Ones was released on July 23, 2013. The book starts where I am Number Four: The Lost Files: The Search For Sam left off.

Adam survives the earthquake but is pinned by the rubble. He shifts it off using an earthquake. He and a Mogadorian escape the crater of rubble Adam created. Badly injured they make their way to a tower on the perimeter of the base where the guard room has survived. The Mogadorian is named Rexicus Saturnus (Rex) and he recognises Adam as a traitor. Adam finds a Chimeara that also escaped the base and names it Dust. On threat of death Rex tells Adam that other Chimaera are being kept in a base on Plum Island in New York. Rex and Adam form an uneasy truce and Rex promises to help Adam get to New York.

Dust transforms into a donkey to carry them to the nearest town. Adam thinks he sees a Mogadorian scout. They travel towards New York and end up jumping a train to escape Mogadorian scouts. Rex jumps on board but Adam is left clinging onto a ladder as the train picks up speed. Rex saves him by pulling him into the carriage. They board a bus from Philadelphia to Manhattan. On a rest stop Adam goes to the bathroom and Rex disappears. When Adam comes out he is confronted with 2 Mogadorians. They grab him by the arms. Adam tosses them off their feet with an earthquake and grabs one of their blasters and shoots them. More Mogarians come which he deals with by using his legacy and the blaster until Dust reappears and helps him finish off the rest of the soldiers. Adam faints in exhaustion with Dust standing guard over him.

When Adam wakes up he is in the passenger seat of a stolen car with Rex driving and Dust on the dashboard in lizard form. Adam, thinking that Rex has betrayed him tries to jump out but Rex stops him. It turns out that Rex was hiding in the battle waiting for Adam to be killed and is puzzled by how Adam managed to survive.

They get to Plum Island by stealing a rowing boat. Part way across Dust goes crazy shifting forms and making a loud noise. Adam calms him down. Before they get to the Island Dust flies off. Rex pretends Adam is his prisoner to get them onto the island. Adam is thrown in prison for a while until Rex comes back with a military uniform, breaks Adam out and takes him to the Chimaera. They find 5 Chimaera that are constantly shifting forms due the experiments they have been subjected to which also went crazy and destroyed their cell at the time Dust went crazy. Trying to find a way out they get to a command centre and discover that the Garde have been discovered in the John Hancock Centre in Chicago and a full scale assault is about to happen. Rex tells Adam that they are too different and he has decided to stay behind while Adam escapes with the Chimaera. Adam steals a car and heads to Chicago with the Chimaera who eventually stabilise their shapes and settle down. He manages to get through to Sam on Malcolm's cell phone and warns him of the coming Mogadorian attack.

As Adam races to get to Chicago with the Chimaera he accepts that One is gone except for in his memories. She is not coming back but he does not need her to. He knows that she is proud of him because he is proud of himself and he remembers her.
