Chapter 4
We took a rest, and the next day we went to work.
"One thing, how in the world are we supposed to get near Jake?" Matt asked.
I opened my mouth to answer, but no words came out, I didn't know. "Well," I said thinking out loud. "We know that since Jake and the others became famous, they have security all around them. So, it will be tricky." I turned to them. "But, we are the Animorphs, we can do that kind of stuff.
Dave smiled.
Matt nodded.
"So, we need to go and get a bug morph then, don't we." Dave said.
"Yup, but first I think we need to go and get new Animorphs."
"Like?" Matt asked.
I thought for a while. "We'll have to think about that. Let's go to my barn, we have quite a bit of insects in there to choose from."
We went to the barn and had to search for a while. Eventually, we each found one. I had a beetle, Matt got a fly, and Dave found a cockroach.
"Wait, where would Jake and the others be?" Dave said.
I smiled. "I've been doing my 'homework.'" I said smiling. "Each of them went to a different place. It was tough, but, with the help of the net, if found Cassie."
Dave nodded. "Okay, where is she?"
I told them. She was right in town, but we would need bird morphs.
"Birds," Matt said smiling. "No problem we found a wounded pigeon in our yard and took it in. We could go get it."
We did, acquired it, and went out.
"Let's morph!" I said with a smile.
I morphed, with no problem what so ever.
It wasn't that easy for Dave and Matt though. Dave morphed completely, but it took him a while. Matt, however, was halfway through his morph and looked at himself, BIG MISTAKE!
A"H"HE"LP M"E he said.
I think he's trying to say, help me. Dave said.
Wow, I've never heard that before. I said. Matt, concentrate, you can get through this, it isn't that hard. You'll get used to it! I remember how hard it was the first time I morphed… I stopped. What did I mean? The first time I morphed? That was my cat, and I had no problem.
I suddenly had a flash of memory. I was… swimming? It must have been when I was young, I was tiny, like… a slug maybe?
WHAT'S HAPPENING TO ME! I screamed.
Steven? What's wrong? Dave asked.
I couldn't answer though, I was going crazy.
