Chris tackled Sam from behind as Sam grabbed his gun. Holding his own gun to Sam's face, he shouted "You have served the devil long enough, you towel head! Prepare to meet your 'lord'!" Click. "Stupid &%^$ing safety."

The others of course did not stop them, because Sin wanted death, Aidan wanted to remove the naïve "God" worshipper gene from the population, and Fred didn't think death was meaningful.

Fred looked up. He saw the illusion created by his mind of a spaceship coming toward him, and got out of the way. It certainly did not exist, but Fred could not stand the illusion of pain.

Sam used the distraction to grab Chris' gun. Chris was still holding on, so they began to grapple and therefore did not see the ship.

Sin looked up. Sin saw the ship. Sin did not know what it was, but did not alert the others. Maintaining ignorance is a great way to allow sin to remain undetected, and thus maintaining the service to his lord. If asked about it later, Sin would claim to have known about it in prophesy, and none would ever know the depth of his lies. Sin silently put more sacrifice in the fire in preparation.

Aidan looked up. He saw the spaceship of a superior species flying overhead. It must be planning to remove the inferior humans and plunder the resources. Aidan did not stop it. Despite the fact that he was human himself, he felt no loyalty to the humans or planet. The strong will plunder, the doomed shall give. Aidan continued to watch as the spaceship landed and Elfangor came out. Glancing upon the extra eyes and sharp tail, Aidan knew that the dna was superior. He would further the alien's goal. The gun was raised to his head. A few seconds later, a puddle of blood was on the ground.

This made Chris and Sam look, and they noticed the Andalite. The Andalite was badly scarred, but Elfangor was more frightened of the humans here than the wounds or yeerks. Of course, no one else noticed or suspected this. Elfangor was pondering whether he should give them the morphing power.

Sam kicked Chris in a delicate place and ran into the spaceship while Chris was delayed. "Where's the prayer mat, you cur? Why isn't this ship facing Mecca?" And he proceeded to grab the end of the tail and squeeze Elfangor's stalk eyes. Elfangor tried to break free, but a human's hand is strong enough to hold a tail and and the pain was very distracting.

((Please, I am near death. I need to warn you about aliens coming to enslave you all))

At least, that was what Elfangor was about to say. After he said "death", Fred muttered "I will end pain" and as he was saying the -slave syllable, Fred stabbed him through the head. Fred would never be able to do it to himself, but feels no guilt about doing it to others because they don't exist, and when he muttered "I will end pain" he really meant that he wants to end his pain, and hopes that this will inspire him to kill himself. He brought his knife to his throat, but once again put it down, and cried.

Chris by now had recovered and removed the safety. He shot one bullet at Sam, but missed and hit Fred. Oh well. God will sort his own. He shot again and hit Sam in the heart. (people do not die immediately from this because it takes several seconds for the brain to run out of oxygen) With a third shot, he found that his gun was out of bullets. Chris fled the scene, and Sam was not able to load his own gun and shoot it before he collapsed.

Chris, by the way, decided to support the aliens because of their slavery. He was pretty sure Jesus preached that slavery is necessary, and Chris wanted to reverse the moral decline caused by liberalism.

Bug fighters came and obviously, the yeerks were here. Sin chanted a curse at them. Nothing happened. Sin chanted a different curse at them. Nothing happened. The logical reason would be that Satan does not exist or does not protect him because Satan has no loyalty to him and wants the yeerks to succeed, but Sin 'knew' that the curse works and perhaps was simply not showing yet. No struggle was put up as he was brought to the yeerk pool.

Because Chris ran away before the yeerks came, he was not captured at that time. However, later he returned to the scene to follow the aliens to where they came from. Chris recognized Chapman, followed him.

In the yeerk pool, he saw people screaming in cages. He shouted at them, saying that "Jesus said that slaves who rebel are heaping burning hell-coals on their head. This is a quote directly from the bible! Stop resisting the invasion immediately!" The yeerks figured out that he was not a controller, and brought him to the pool. Chris put on a big show of his cooperation and bragged about how holy he was. Of course, the moment the yeerk touched his ear, he began fighting back. He already got his holiness points for the day, and now that nobody could see him clearly (he was surrounded by hork-bajir) there was no point in acting holy for others.

The story in the paper the next day was that some teenagers were shot by unknown murderers. One of them shot off flares, somehow mistaken for flying saucers and starting a rumor of aliens. 3 guns, many bullets and 3 bodies were found. The police are seeking all information related to it. The sharing has increased recruitment and their media appearances, saying that the community must work together to prevent further crimes. Sin and Chris were both involuntary hosts, and without a resistance the yeerks easily conquered.
