Alyachies POV
I was tired and I wanted a rest. We had walked across town and I wasn't used to walking so far. If only I could morph. Boo to the Animorphs.
Ariadne and I had gotten a letter from a lady named Dr Gee. I almost giggles at the though of that silly name. But how had she known about Ariadne and me, had been my sister's first thought. I felt ashamed of not thinking of it. I had been looking at the stationary. I remembered that Visser Three had used this ugly paper but Dr Gee used this unusually soft crimson type paper. I took it out of my pocket again and reread it for the millionth time.
Dear twins,
It is urgent that I talk to you both. It has to do with your mother and father. And your birth. Meet me tomorrow at 7:30 in the Taco Bell.
Sincerely,
Dr Gee.
My hands were shaking as I held the paper. About our birth? Our parents? What more did we need to know?
Jake had forbidden us from going. I guess that's another reason we were going. It seemed as if Ariadne loved to do things all the more when people had already said not to. That's why we were walking the long way. We knew the Animorphs might decide to follow us just in case we didn't listen to Jake. I didn't think they would be ON me.
We entered were about to enter the Taco Bell when a hand spun me around and covered my mouth. Araidne noticed I wasn't behind her and she spun, ready to fight.
My assaulter smiled. "My name is Dr Gee. My guess is that you two are the twins…"
Ariande nodded. "Now let go of her."
Dr Gee let go. I scurried back to Araidne. Dr Gee turned. "Come with me, twins."
"Our names are Ariadne and Alyachies." Ariadne said coldly, not letting Dr Gee see or hear any emotions. She could have been a good actress.
We followed Dr Gee to a run down building. We entered and she led us to a small room that looked like some sort of living room. There she began.
"I was the doctor in charge of your…birth." She told us about the idea of connecting the Yeerk and a human from birth. How it didn't work. How Visser One decided to keep us and find our 'powers'. How Visser Three took me away. I felt like crying by the time she finished. Or at least, when I thought she had finished.
But she hadn't. "Both of you are not exactly human." I froze. How could she know about Elfangor? "We both took some of your DNA from you parents. So you are each different versions of what your parents would have been as one person." I understood but obviously Ariadne didn't.
"Uh? What?"
"We put your parents' DNA together and put it together in to different way. So you see, us doctors planned there to be twins. We were too frightened to tell Visser One, of coarse. But I am sick. And this host is about to die. So I feel you two need to know." She falls silent.
It was then that I saw her wrinkles and her cane. I knew suddenly she was on the brink of death. Or at least her host was. She was just doing this because she would not have much life left anyway.
Ariadne snapped out of her thought first. "Thank you, but we have some…things to do. You won't tell Visser One about this, will you?"
Dr. Gee shook her head. "I will never see her again." she walked off before I could say anything.
*~*~*~*~*
We were meeting by PayLess Shoes near the edge of town for all of us to go down into the Yeerk Pool. I felt Almost as if I was going home. As we approached the others I didn't see their reproachful stares. But Ariadne did. "What's up with you guys?"
"You went to see her." Jake said coldly. I looked up at him. He was so cute. I hated the way he looked at us like he almost hated us. I felt like trembling but I held on strong. I didn't want him mad at me but there was nothing I could possibly say.
Ariadne stared back just as coldly. "I was thinking you probably were spying on us."
"Why shouldn't we have? We could let you slip something about us." Marco said.
"We didn't slip anything!" I yelled, now angry. As much as I liked Jake there was no way I would let him get away with them saying that would be so stupid as to give away such a big secret. I glared at them all angrily.
Rachel stepped forward. "You might have and we could risk that."
Ariadne stepped up right up to her. "But we didn't, did we?"
"You could have."
"BUT WE DIDN'T!"
Then Rachel swung a punch at Ariadne and hit her in the stomach.
Araidne grunted but then pushed her hard enough to knock her against Cassie. They both fell. Jake suddenly grabbed Araidne and Tobias pinned down Rachel. Ariande both struggled and finally got themselves free. Rachel stood. They glared at the other and the others got ready to grab them.
Instead they both turned away. Araidne muttered, "Then I'll go down myself." She walked off toward the Yeerk Pool entrance. I glared at the Animorphs. "I hope you guys survive long. Not many people survive without faith in each other." Then I walked off, following my sister towards our doom.
A/N: I know…this might be short (I think it might b anyway…but I'll try and make the other chapters longer). It is ending. This story has only a few chapters left. That's about it for now…
