THE WAR-PART 1
(Author's Note: I do not include details about their lives because I deem it irrelevant. I'm also not good at the more emotional aspects of writing)
Prologue-Jake
My name is Jake. Since you should know who we are and what we do, I won't bore you by retelling it. This is the story of the second invasion, and how we stopped it. Although we had driven the Yeerks out before, they had returned, and in stronger force. They still did not have enough power for an open invasion of Earth, as their fleet was engaged in other parts of the galaxy. It was 2005, and they had returned.
Chapter 1-Tobias
My name is Tobias. I'm not going to bore you either. We were gathered in the barn trying to decide what to do about this second invasion. Erek the Chee walked in and said, "For all we know, the Yeerks are using the facility they had already built, considering the fact that you did not totally annihilate it. It will be almost impossible for you to drive the Yeerks out again…yourself."
Marco spoke up, "Are you suggesting that we use the box to make more members?"
"Not at all. While that could possibly be a good strategy, I have a more effective one in mind. You will pose as Controllers and commandeer a Bug fighter. You will need the access codes, which I will provide. You will then fly-
Marco interrupted, "Let me guess. We fly it into the mother ship, upload a virus, and blow it up from the inside." No one laughed.
Erek just continued. "You will then fly the fighter to Washington and land it on the White House lawn."
"We already tried that," said Jake. "It didn't work."
"It will work this time." He then began to outline a detailed plot. (Author's Note: I will not describe the plan and will barely try to write about how it is executed. I admit that I lack the creativity to figure it out.)
^That will not work.^ I said.
"Why?" asked Jake.
^Obviously, if we landed an alien spacecraft on the White House lawn, provided they don't blast us out the sky beforehand, it will cause mass public hysteria all over the world.^
"Then what do you propose?" asked Ax, who was in human morph.
^I propose that we take the fighter to Area 51, which as everyone knows, does exist and is a military installation.^
"Possibly run by Controllers," said Marco.
Rachel stepped in, "The White House could be run by Controllers as well. I like Tobias' plan." We debated for a while and decided. Area 51 it would be.
