Wow! I didn't know I'd get reviews! Thanx everyone..i was waiting to be kicked out for a horrible fanfiction J but here's more!


CHAPTER 2: A SECRET REVEALED

I was battered, bruised and basically very pissed. Not to long after Tobias left, Rachel had found some rope and tied me to a tree and I had been there ever since. About an hour after Tobias had left, he came back as a human with Erek. Erek was just some kid I knew from school, I heard he was on the soccer team for his school and I had seen him at the mall a few times. But why would they want Erek? Was he somehow involved in this weird, colt thing that they had going on? Whether that was it or not, I would find out soon.
Erek waved to Jake as he jogged up to us with Tobias. He looked at me and frowned. "Are you hurt?" he asked me sincerely.
"Do I look like I'm hurt?" I said freshly, even if they were kidnapping me, I wasn't going to just sit there and take it. "Or do I look like I'm having a great time? Well guess what. I'm not, I'm not happy, I'm not hurt, but I'm not happy. I've been tied against this tree for the past hour thinking of ways to stay calm and use my stunning intellect to trick you guys into letting me go, but that doesn't seem to be working." Erek looked shocked, I liked that. People always thought I was some shy girl that never talked, but after you got to know me I was the loudest person with the biggest attitude you ever knew. Erek got up and started talking to Jake, when they were done they came back to me.
"Come on." Jake said as he helped untie me. When I was loose enough, I kicked him and finished untying myself.
Erek walked up to me and put out his hand. "I won't hurt you." He said with a strange calm. For some reason I believed him and took his hand. I jumped back in shock after I touched his hand. It felt cold, like metal. He looked at me and smiled as I took his hand again and walked into the hologram. We walked for what seemed like ever. Erek explained everything to me, the Chee, the pemalites, the howlers, everything. He even told me about the yeerks, who they were, what they were. I wouldn't believe that they thought I was one of those…those…things! The yeerks were parasites that would crawl into your ear and get to your brain from there and take control of your body. Imagine waking up and wanting to go downstairs and eat breakfast. But you couldn't because the yeerk would control your body. It would bring you downstairs, it would make small talk with your family at the table, it would talk to your friends, and it had total control.
"We're here." Erek released his hologram from me, I looked at him and he was once again "Erek" your average teenage boy. I looked around me and saw a sort of 7-foot demon. A goblin from a child's nightmare, it was yellow and had blades coming out of numerous parts of its body. I looked around and realized that there was more than one, there were about 100. One came up to me.
"Hello." That was the last thing I heard before I fainted.
"…I already have one of my people covering for her," I heard Erek say.
"Good, because we'll need your people there for three days tops." I opened my eyes a little and looked around, I was still in the valley, lying on a sort of cot that was set-up there and the others were all talking.
"What do we do…I mean controller or not, she'll be free in three days…what then?" I heard Marco ask everyone, most girls in school didn't like him that much, and I mean anyone would say that he's cute but his sense of humor was a little too much for some people. But I could see that past that he was actually very smart, one of those people that reads between the lines and sees possibilities that you haven't.
"We could make her one of us…" Cassie said softly. "I mean I know we don't have the morphing cube, but…with her mother as Visser 10, she could help us." I could sense a strain in Cassie's voice as she spoke, "you know I don't want any more people involved in this than necessary but she's already seen and heard so much…"
"I agree." Rachel said. I decided that I was done listening and I went back to sleep.

I was in nothingness, a fog of mist. Eternally surrounding me, not letting me see anywhere but letting me see everywhere. I knew this place. It's where I had been for millennia. I had lived here, died here, yet I had never been here. Then suddenly I was in the mist. I had no form but I had every form, I was alive yet dead, small yet large. Hello. A large voice echoed around the hidden walls of the mist.
"Danielle. Yeerk. Whoever you are, time to wake up." I opened my eyes and sat up. I saw Tobias standing there with toast in his hands. "This is yours." He put his hands up to mine and I grabbed the toast from him. I had been held in a small shack built of wood for the past two days, my mother probably knew I was gone by now…unless of course the chee were still there.
Around sunset all of the "Animorphs" were there. That's what they call themselves, animal morphers. I happened to think that was quite clever. Cassie came into the shack and unlocked my foot from a pole inside of it. "I'm sorry for the conditions we have actually met in." Cassie said with a smile. "Come on." I walked out with her, I was positive I looked like crap, my mascara was probably running down my face from crying.
And then I saw it. I saw the thing, the centaur. Its upper body was like a human's except it had blue fur, no mouth and stalk eyes atop of it's head. I stepped back and into one of the Hork-Bajir. They were a kind people, if you didn't judge them by looks. "Sorry." I said politely as I walked back to where I was standing.
It has been three of your days. The Andalite said, yes an Andalite. Erek had told me about them.
"Ax-man, until your off of this planet their your days too." Marco was leaning against a tree eating a granola bar. Jake sighed and stepped up to me.
"There was no yeerk, we're sorry for doing this too you." He looked sincere as he put his hand out to me. After some consideration I put my hand out and we shook.
