(Okay! Next person that does that is getting eaten!)

(Does what?) Marco asked oh-so innocently.

(BITES ME!)

(OH I DID NOT!)

(Marco, just shut up!) Jake snapped.

(Um...) Ax said from somewhere (I believe that was me)

I almost made an audible sound, but instead stuck to some thought speak yelling.

(AX WOULD YOU STOP EATING ME! FOR CHRISTS SAKE!)

(You're religious?)

(OH CLAM IT TOBIAS!)

(Dakota, please! I thought you'd be happy about being in on this!)

(I am! It's just... well... youd be annoyed if someone kept biting you too)

(Actually, I think it's best we don't bite Dakota. For all we know, the bat he aquired could have had the rabies virus)

(Oh, now you tell us) Marco groaned, and I just laughed at him.

Okay, I bet by now you're wondering where we were, and why these six loons were taking a ride on my skin as fleas.

Well, here's the deal; Tobias found out... somehow... that trains had been going into a certain undergroud tunnel, and not coming out the other side. Which just spelled Yeerk to everyone.

So... we set out to find out why.

And this is how I got to be a bus for six very active fleas, who also happened to be my friends.

And I was finding it veeeeery hard not to chomp them down.

Especially Marco. Maybe Ax too.

(That's just gross) Rachel muttered. I sighed, folding my wings up tighter and looking around inside the train.

Did I mention I got the glory of shooting into a dark train at night, then huddling under a seat and watching as feet moved around?

Yeah,I was really enjoying this.

Not.

Okay, sure, I liked the bit where I dove under the seat using some really cool flying moves of mine, but the rest...

It just wasn't as glamourous as I hoped it to be.

The train car thumped along, and I heard the usual people yakking away. Guy with a cell, some woman and her numerous kids, a teen singing to his favorite music...

You know, the usual.

(I'm bored)

(Well you won't be for long!) I snapped at Marco, then went silent again, moving my wings a little as the train went around a bend.

(Guys? Do you get the feeling that something is about to happen?) Tobias asked, and at that moment something did.

Everything seemed to go pitch black, or at least, the human kind of pitch black. Then...

I was thrown forward, barely having hime to grab onto the side of the metal bar of the seat as I heard everyone else screaming madly.

(AAAAAAAAAAH!) I screamed along with everyone, waiting until all movement stopped.

(WHATS GOING ON!) Jake yelped.

(HANG ON AND I'LL FIND OUT!) I snapped again, knowing I shouldn't have but not being able to stop myself.

I peeked out again, seeing nothing unusual. Then, the lights came on and I ducked back into hiding.

"Is everyone okay?" I heard someone cry.

"Katie!"

"Mama!"

"What the fuck is-"

"Shut up kid, we're going to find out now" Some guy said.

I saw footsteps go by me, thumping off to front train carriage where the driver was.

(Well?)

(I think we've stopped)

(And?)

(And what? THERE IS NO AND! IT'S JUST STOPPED! KAPPIESH?)

(Ooookay then. Maybe we should have left him out of this one) Rachel muttered.

(Nothing unusual) I sighed, slumping a little and just keeping hold of the metal bar in case something else happened.

Which I knew it most certainly would.

I heard people murmuring amongst themselves, and waited there, my heart pounding, my ears straining for anything unusual.

Then, I felt myself get light and hit the bottom of the seat.

(Ow!)

(What? What happened?) Cassie asked as I realised what happened.

(We're going down)

(Um... how?)

(Don't ask me how! I don't know! I'm just a freakin bat!)

(Gee, moody much?) Marco asked sarcastically.

(THATS IT! I'VE HAD IT!) I reached around to eat Marco once and for all, but another jolt made me hit my head again.

(I'm guessing we've stopped) Ax piped up for once.

(Smart) I grumbled, taking another risky peep out, looking out the window.

And almost fainted.

(Um... um... aheh... you're not gonna believe this) I almost laughed.

(Believe what?) Jake asked cautiously.

(I think... we're underwater)

(WHAT?)

(ALRIGHT IM DEAF ALREADY!) I yelped.

(What are we doing underwater?) Ax asked.

(Beats me)

All of a sudden another jolt, and this one... backwards!

(WHOA!)

(Yikes! What?)

(We're moving horizontally again)

(Hmm, this is odd) Ax said.

(Noooo kiiidddinnng) I sighed.

Smart alien. Really smart alien.

(Yeerks?)

(What do you think?)

(I'm betting yes)

(Hmm)

We thunked along, almost like normal, only... we were like... in an underwater kinda tunnel. Like... water on the outside. Us inside.

I know, confusing.

Confusing to me too.

(Well, what now?)

(Sit here I guess, and see where they take us)

(Easy for you guys to say) I murmured.

Then, we stopped again.

"All right, all ready" Someone above me said.

I barely had time to think 'what' before there was a flash of bright red light above us, and suddenly...

I suddenly I found I couldn't move my right wing.

(What the-!) I yelped, takinga dangerous peek out into the isle, then yanking my head back in.

(What? What is it!) Jake demanded.

(Weeeeere in trouble)

(May I ask why?) Jake asked, using that calm-but-meaning-im-just-about-to-explode voice.

(It's Yeerks all right. And they just paralyzed the whole carriage, maybe even the whole train)

(Thats not just it, am I right?) Cassie said, and I silently cursed her for knowing me better than I thought.

(Dakota?)

(My... wing is paralyzed) I finaly admitted.

(WHAT!)

(Okay, deaf bat here)

(But... but... what do we do! WE CAN'T DEMORPH OR WE'LL BE SPOTTED! WE CAN'T DO ANYTHING!)

(Marco just shut your trap!) Rachel snapped as I slipped as far under the seat and near the wall as I could, trying my best to move my wing but to no avail.

(Stay still) Cassie hissed.

(I'll do my best)

(You'd better)

(Marco, this isn't the time to start freaking out on us) Tobias hissed as I stayed exactly where I was, listening as booted footsteps came down the isle, then grab the person above me, hauling them off.

I listened as they did it with all the passengers on the train carriage, then one of them wandered around a bit.

"That all of em"

"Yep. Let's get 'em to Visser Three"

They stomped off, and I waited just a little longer, before peeking out again.

(Okay, I think they're gone)

(You think?)

(Shh! I'm listening!)

After hearing nothing, I managed to move a little away from the wall of the train, trying to move my wing again.

(Dax?)

(It's still pretty numb. I can't... I can't move it)

(Damn! Now what are we gonna do?) Rachel asked.

(We've got... no choice. Ax?)

(We have twenty one of your minutes left) He said.

(Dakota?)

(Yeah?)

(Can you be lookout for us?)

(Sure. Why... what are you planning to do?)

(Demorph)

(But... but... but...) Marco spluttered, but Cassie cut him off.

(Look, right now Dax is paralized, and we can't exactly go anywhere as fleas. Unless you want to end up one, then stop talking and start growing)

Everyone was silent for a moment.

(Wow... was that really necessary Cassie?) Tobias asked her, sounding shocked as well as a little proud of her I guess.

Before she could answer, Jake cut in.

(Everyone, let's make this as fast as possible, all right? We don't want to get caught as helpless half human, half flea creatures)

(Once I know who you are Marco, I'm eatin you)

(OH NO YOU DON'T! DON'T YOU DARE!)

(ENOUGH!) Jake snapped (JUST DO IT!)

Everyone shut up, and I managed to crawl out just enough to have a look around to make sure there weren't any surprises left for us.

I let of a sharp echolocation burst, checking the carriage as best I could.

Nothing. Everything seemed pretty normal.

At least...I hoped.

I looked around, seeing the others were keeping under the seats. Ax was finding it harder to do so, but was stooping low just in case. They looked... freaky as they all demorphed.

I flexed my wing again, starting to feel it painfully coming back to life. I pulled it in, then stretched it out again.

(Guys! I think...)

I saw Jake nodding, now almost human, and the others weren't far behind him. Cassie, already fully human was indicating that I come over to her, but I shook my head.

(I'm fine Cassie. Just hurry!)

She nodded, and I saw Ax was already halfway back to flea. He hid under another of the seats as I scrabbled around in the isle, still keeping a good a lookout as I could manage.

Which didn't turn out to be as good as I'd hoped.

I heard something clatter, then from the doors came...

Came a controller.

And she'd seen me.

"Andalite!"

(Smart, human) I mocked, hoping I sounded enough like an andalite, also hoping she hadn't seen the others.

"Why you..." She snarled, pulling out a weapon and aiming it atme.

(DAX!) Cassie screamed.

(It's okay! Just stay hidden! I'll draw her away from you!) Painfully, I powered my wings and shot off the ground, barely dodging a blast that took out one of the windows.

"Get back here!"

(Hang on Dakota! I'll-)

(Tobias no! Just keep out of sight!) I swept around her head, ducking out the door she'd come in, making her chase me out into wherever we were, hoping she'd try and avoid hitting the walls of this underwater train tunnel.

TSSSSEEEW!

Nope. Guess she wasn't smart enough for that.

Then again... she was always a bit of an airhead...

"GOTCHA!"

TSSEEEEW!

At the last second I was trying to dodge the attack, my injured wing gave out on me.

And now... I didn't have a wing anymore.

I fell to the ground, blood flying everywhere as I hit.

My blood.

I looked up with pained eyes to see my attacker, only to find two there instead of just the one.

Greg. He was looking down at me with utter disguest.

"Stupid andalite"

Beside him... the person I never though I'd ever see again... grinned.

And then... Hannah pulled the trigger.

I can't believe how long this took to do!

Sorry guys... hopefully the next one won't be as long!

Love you all for reviewing, bye now!
