Hey guys, i'm back!
I hope you liked my first one, because i think this one might be even better. I'll try to keep it true to the Animorphs form, but i might need you guys to help me. Anyway, here goes........
-------------------Prologue--------------
Over the threads of time and space, the being called Crayak laughed. He had discovered something, something he had overlooked many times before. Now it was clear to him.
Stupid fool. You are not the only one who can do that...
The Ellimist saw it too. But there was nothing he could do now. He had set the wheels in motion, and all he could do watch as the Crayak went through with his destructive plan...
--------------------------------------BREAK-------------------------------------------------------
On the rat island, a lone rat was by the waters, licking its forepaws. It had just had one of the most satisfying meals it had gotten in almost three weeks. It then took a small drink from the river, turning and waddling off to its burrow.
This rat had two minds within it, yet the other had given up fighting, and had receded back so that the rat mind could take over. This other mind of course, was David.
He had given up the fight completely. He thought he had the Animorphs, until he found out they actually had him. They had forced him to become this disgusting creature, and then flown him to the rat island to die.
(Why bother?) He thought (There's nothing to live for...)
But on that day, there was. All of a sudden the rat wasn't walking over debris, but a red carpet. At that moment, David took over.
(What? Am I dead) he looked at his little pink claws (No. If I were, then... then at least I'd be...)
YOU ARE NOT DEAD, came a booming voice, and he looked up to see where the voice had come from.
All he could see for sure was a giant red eye. It stared down at him as he quivered. The thing was sitting on what looked like a throne, and he couldn't tell if it was made of living flesh or machine.
The rat brain screamed run! But David was frozen in terror.
The voice then subsided to sound almost human.
"I have a proposition for you, David the rat"
(A... you know who I am?) He asked, jumping about three feet in the air as something that looked like a dried prune mixed with a dinosaur stepped out of the shadows beside the creature.
"Yes, we do" Spoke the smaller creature.
(W-well, what is it?) he asked softly.
"We will return your morphing power, if..." The prune thing hesitated.
(If what?)
"If you take out a little... problem we've been having" he clicked two of his ugly nailed fingers together, and seconds later David felt... different.
He could see and... he looked down at his body. Yes! His body! He was himself again! He laughed and almost cried with relief.
"I'm me again!"
"No, not quite. The body you have, is only a morph. You're still a rat. Unless..."
"Unless I trap myself in this body again? But... they'll catch me for sure! The Yeerks, or those stupid..."
"Animorphs? Ah, yes, we know about them"
"You do?"
"And that is why we've offered you an ultimatum. You get your morphing power back, if you help us destroy the Animorphs. And we know just how to do it..."
"This will be beneficial to you as well. It may allow you to stay human, yet keep your power of change" the bigger one spoke up, its eye still focused on David.
"And how do I do that? They changed me into a... a... rat the last time!"
"No, there's one more, and she is not like the others..."
"Huh? What do I have to do to her then?"
"Kill her. Kill the girl named Jade..."
