Faith: WE'RE BACK!!
Star: Finally...
Faith: But we have bad news. Sadly, we're not as into Animorphs as we used to be, so it's getting harder and harder to write.
Star: Yup... And then we're gonna take time out and write some stuff for the actual Agents story.
Faith: So yeah, it might be a while before the next chapter gets up.
Both: READ! REVIEW! ENJOY! TELL US TO GET RE-INTO ANIMORPHS! YOU KNOW YOU LOVE US AND YOU'LL MISS US IF WE GO!
My name is Marco. Marco the great, Marco the awesome, whichever. Or just plain Marco. That's what I get most of the time.
Seeing as how we haven't had a great Yeerk lecture yet... I'll leave it for Jake or Josh to do. I hate lectures.
"Gah, how long does it take to get from Oregon to here?" David whined. He's blonde, so he's... Well... Blonde. Very blonde. I'm just thankful he has brown eyes, rather than blue. Otherwise he'd be a typical stereotype.
"He must be going through Cady withdrawals." I stage whispered loud enough for everyone to hear. The others snickered. David just glared at me.
Okay, here's the deal. Jake, Josh, Alex, David, and I were waiting for the girls, Ax, and Tobias to show up in the Hork-Bajir valley. From there, we'd have a meeting, then go home. Well, Bird-boy, Ax-man, and David would have a new roomie: Carman. She'd apparently gotten sick of living the the high-and-mighty snobs that were her foster family, so she decided to move in with three guys.
I think we all questioned her sanity. Well, except for David, who really didn't understand because he was the reason of the questioning.
"David, relax." Josh spoke. Josh looks a lot like Superman: dark curly hair, steel blue eyes, leader complex. Hence the reason we call him Superman.
We were all waiting in the cabin that we had brought Cady and Alyssa when they had been injured. Josh was sitting in a chair, Alex was propped up on one of the cots, Jake was leaning beside the doorway, David was sitting on the other cot, and I was sitting against the wall on the floor beside Alex's cot. "They'll get here when they get here."
"But I'm bored." Came the reply.
"We all are." Alex answered. He looked at Jake and Josh as he continued. "Especially since someone's got Super Smash Brothers Brawl to play. But no, someone else had to go and call a meeting, so the first someone couldn't play."
I stared at him. "You got Brawl?"
Alex nodded with a grin. "I got Brawl." Alex and I look a lot alike. Except he has green eyes, and his hair is a tad on the curly side.
Someone cleared their throat. "You got Brawl?"
"Fine. Wegot Brawl." Alex relented as Alyssa walked in, followed by the other girls, an Andalite, and a teenage boy.
"Finally!" David exclaimed.
"What, did you miss us?" Rachel asked, grinning.
I grinned. "No. He only missed Cady." Then, I stage whispered again. "He's going through withdrawals."
"Awww, poor poor Davie..." Audrey teased as she sat down against the far wall with her backpack. She has brown hair and blue eyes.
"Hey, it's nice to know I was missed." Cady said with a grin as she sat next to her boyfriend. She has lighter brown hair, and gray eyes.
"Okay, let's get down to business." Jake said. "Tobias was here earlier today, and he found out that Bek, a young -"
"Hork-Bajir went missing." Aly finished. "We know." She has brown hair and brown eyes.
"What? How? I just told Jake - Oooh..." Tobias trailed off.
"Dude, we got books. We know your every move, mwuahahaha!" Alex cackled.
"Oooh... That's not the main point of the book." Kat remarked. She is our other blonde. She looks like Rachel, with her blonde hair and blue eyes. Then she looked at Tobias, whom had perched on the open window sill. "You're fixing to have a very complicated problem."
"Maybe we should just tell him and save him the trouble..." Josh mused.
"Let's tell him about Aria and be done with it." Audrey said. "But nothing else."
"Okay." Josh nodded. "Wait... Has anyone even began looking for him yet?" He looked at Rachel.
"Uh... Yeah..." She answered.
"Look, Visser Three is going around in morph, pretending to be your cousin Aria." Aly said. "And that's the end of it."
"Well... Not the end, really. You still have to go see that DeGroot dude." Audrey added. "But still..."
"Who?"
"He's a lawyer dude."
"You need to go see him." Kat added.
"And keep your cover around 'Aria'." Carman continued. She is our one-of-a-kind hyper chick. She has black hair, which is almost always in two pigtails, and green eyes.
"Someone needs to go with him." Jake said. "Not everyone, just someone to go and help him keep his cover and all."
"I'll go." Kat offered.
"Okay, that'll work." Jake continued. "Now, back to Bek... He's apparently in the books, so you must know where he is." He looked around at the Agents.
"Well, we know it was Frank's something, but seeing as how we don't have the books on us, we can't be sure." Aly said.
"Some stupid, crappy zoo..." Audrey muttered.
"But, seeing as how you got there by following Aria, we don't know where it is." Josh added.
"So, Tobias and Kat go see the DeGroot guy, and the rest of us look for Aria?" Cassie asked.
"Uh... Why don't we make our lives easier and just go get the book, find the name, and look it up on the internet?" Audrey suggested. "You guys insiston doing it the hard and complicated way, rather than just searching it on Google or whatever."
"You could save a lot of time by doing that." David added.
"Oh my word, he actuallysaid something somewhat intelligent!" I cried.
"Finally, we've been waiting for the sarcastic comment for so long!" Alex wailed.
"And we put up with them... Why?" Rachel asked.
"Can we stick to business, please?" Josh asked.
"Aww, Superman's whining!" Aly giggled.
"How cute!" Audrey joined in.
"He has a point..." Jake remarked.
"As if we didn't already have enough leader people as it is. Then you freaks showed up." I said. "Oops, did I say that out loud?" I grinned.
"We're freaks." Aly nodded.
"And we're proud!" Audrey called out.
"Look, let's finish the meeting, then you can go on about how freaky you are, okay?" Jake offered. "So, someone needs to get the address to Frank's place."
"Well, this book is kinda short. There's nothing much in it, aside from Tobias' musings and such. So... Which one was next?" Kat asked.
"Helmacrons!" Carman exclaimed. "Little freaky blue midgets!"
All the Agents groaned, except Cady. "No..."
(Helmacrons?) Ax finally spoke.
I started clapping. "Finally, you decided to speak."
"Hey, Ax, what're you doing in that corner?" Cassie asked.
(Nothing.) He quickly hid something behind his back.
"Ax..."
"He got the last Agents book." Tobias rolled his eyes. "And he hasn't put it down. At all. For others to read."
"We barely got him to put it down in order to go with Tobias and the girls." David remarked.
"You know, I'm sure someone else is almost done. I'm almost halfway through with it." Rachel remarked.
"This is the third time he's read it."
"Ah. I can see how that would get annoying."
"You have no idea."
Ax just stayed silent, pointedly turning his back to the group.
Jake shook his head, then looked at Tobias. "I've only got two chapters left. You can borrow mine when I get done."
"Can you answer me a question about the books, Jake?" Carman asked. "They're being secretive about it. They'll look up at me, then look back down at the book, and it's getting annoying."
"Ooh..." Jake looked away. I decided to spare the Fearless Leader, who apparently wasn't so 'fearless'.
"You died a few books back."
Carman blinked, then nodded. "Oooh..."
"That's it?" David looked at her. "You died, and all you say is 'oooh...'?"
She thought for a moment, then nodded.
Tobias looked at David. "And she's gonna be living with us from now on."
David visibly shivered. Carman just giggled.
