Okay here we are! I got the next chapter out earlier then usual so hopefully that will make up for missing a week. Thanks to Silvercatofbast for helping me edit this because my grammer is less then perfect. Anyway by now you all know I don't own animorphs. As a matter of fact I own squat. All my possessions consist of useless junk I cannot bare to part with and contain only sentimental value. In other words, If I'm sued all anyone will get is some pocket change, so don't even try, I'm not worth it.
===================================
Viola sat nervously in the backseat. She edged away as far as she could from Visser 3, unfortunately that put her closer to Margaret and the gun being pointed at her ribcage. She stared straight ahead, making every effort to avoid eye contact with either of her captors, knowing full well they were staring at her. Her entire body was trembling in fear. She knew what the yeerks did, the stories her mother told her, her freedom shattered. But they thought her useless too, when they were finished with what they wanted she would probably be fed as delicacy to some Taxxon, or given as a minor host to a low level yeerk. She couldn't decide which was worse. She wished for her mother, anyone to help, the slightest possibility of escape. Those animals from before. She could have sworn it was Marco. That was impossible, no human had morphing technology.
"I wasn't aware andalite filth was into such low-level operations."
"Go ahead and ransom me Visser, I'm expendable. They'd rather just kill me then sacrifice the team."
"And how many are in your team?"
She paused, would a real warrior give away that information? When in doubt, lie. "More then you can imagine. We have already infiltrated Earth, it's only a matter of time before your empire will fall."
Visser 3 smirked. "Really andalite? You lie, if there truly were as many as you say you might have chosen a full frontal assault."
Perfect, she was trapped. "Really Visser, there are more useful methods of combat then just grabbing the bull by the horns."
"Bull by the horns?"
Margaret spoke. "A human expression Visser, it's meaning is equivalent to full frontal assault."
"Silence!" The Visser's sudden outburst made Viola jump. The Visser continued. "What were your intentions at the banquet?"
She began to panic now. "Nothing."
He grinned, a frightening smile that sent Viola trembling. "We'll see. Hold her down Ellin."
This was it; she bolted, trying to run. It was too late and Margaret was too close, she grabbed her before she even had a chance. Viola kicked with her back feet, trying to plant her hooves into those shins, making contact at least more then once before her other arm was held down. Her eyes widened with fear as Margaret leaned in closer, a grayish slug oozing from her ear. She screamed, struggling further and this time the Visser helped to hold her down as the disgusting creature dropped onto her ear. She tried to shake her head but found it forced down as the slug forced it's way into her ear canal.
****************************
It didn't seem important anymore to continue hiding. Erik didn't appear surprised when his wife walked into the house with four children wearing spandex and an andalite. What worried him was that Viola wasn't with them.
:: Pack what you can carry Erik and call Frank, we're leaving.::
Erik frowned. "Where's Viola? Gari?"
:: She's lost Erik.::
"That's not true."
Both Gari and Erik looked at Jake.
:: How long have you been fighting them? You know it's a trap, they won't let anyone out alive. We're lucky Viola has no value to them but for bait, she'll be useless as a controller.::
Cassie stared at Asgariem in shock. "You're just going to let her die? She's your daughter!"
:: Then she'll also know why I can't save her. I don't think she really knows who you are so your safe.::
She turned away and trotted out the back door. Erik sighed, watching his wife go before he turned back to Jake. "I'm sorry."
Rachel scowled. "How can you let her abandon your daughter like that?"
"Don't blame her, Gari was sent as a scout. The fact she failed to determine the threat on Earth is a blow to her pride. She feels like she's failed everyone and right now she's struggling between being a mother and being a soldier."
Tobias spoke. :: We can save her.::
:: You?:: They all turned back to see Asgariem walking back inside. :: Your only children.::
Ax narrowed his stalk eyes. :: We have done more then you.::
Jake gave Ax a warning glance. "We know someone who can help that you're probably not away of."
Erik looked at Jake in confusion, while Asgariem raised her stalk eyes with interest.
***********************
Gari looked at Erik, understanding and fear passed between them. Gently she kissed him. "You and Frank need to get out of here."
"I want to wait until I know you and Viola are safe."
"You don't know these people like I do Erik. Please, just go. I promise I'll come back."
He sighed. "Alright. But you promised."
Gari smiled. "Don't worry, I won't be alone in this."
He nodded and Gari stepped back. He stalk eyes reformed as she began to turn the color blue. Her hooves and legs formed as she returned to her andalite form.
:: You know where to go Erik.::
She took one last look at her husband before trotting into the living room and turning to Marco and Rachel. :: You'll make sure he's safe?::
Marco smiled. "Hey no sweat. Anything for a future mother in law."
:: I never said I'd let you marry her.::
Rachel smirked and Asgariem turned to Jake. :: Are we ready?::
Jake nodded. "This is going to take perfect timing."
:: I'm aware of it.::
*******************************
:: Maybe your right half-breed. You're worthless to them. Pity, your mother would have made a great trophy.::
Viola looked at Visser 3 and hung her head, looking down at the handcuffs on her wrists. Mom, dad, Uncle Frank. More Grammar problems! They were all in danger because of her.
:: Visser!::
Viola looked up staring at the blue outline of her mother. Mom no, it's a trap. :: Mom it's a trap.::
:: I know Viola. It's alright.::
Visser 3 seemed to grin. :: Your daughter is she? I wouldn't have guessed. The andalite whore.::
:: Give me my daughter Visser, let her go.::
As Asgariem began to approach Visser 3 pressed his tail blade at Viola's throat. :: Come any closer Andalite and you shall have no daughter.::
Asgariem stopped and the Hork Bajir began their approach. In a blinding motion she had her tail blade pointed at her own throat. :: You forget Visser, I have nothing to lose. You have my daughter but what you are proposing in exchange is my life. If I do not see her released you shall have nothing and lose your bargaining chip.::
The Visser laughed. :: Alright.:: He released his tail blade from Viola's throat. :: Go on Half-Breed. Be warned that every weapon is trained on you and your mother.::
Viola nodded, glancing back at the Visser before approaching her mother. She walks slowly at first, nervous as every eye in the room was watching her. Gaining confidence she walked more quickly, before finally running into her mother's arms.
:: Satisfied Andalite?::
Asgariem nodded. :: Now I want to be sure my daughter gets out of here safely::
The room echoed with the roar of a tiger as a large gray elephant broke into the room. "Andalites!"
The Dracon beams seemed to go off at once as mother and daughter crumpled to the floor; circular burns smoking from their bodies.
