A/N: Thank you my loyal reviewers. I can't believe how many reviews I have received and that I have written over twenty chapters.
Disclaimer: K.A. Applegate=Animorphs; me= Sarah, Bade, Josh, Hope, and Alexandria.
Alexandria
I saw a bird hurtle towards me at over 60 miles per hour. I don't know what type of bird and I don't really care. You tend to abandon all logical thinking when a raptor is lunging at you, getting ready to scrape your eyes out.
"Ahhhhhhhh!" Sarah and I both screamed at the same time.
We heard Bade's familiar voice in our heads, Josh, get out of there now!
Wait a second, the bird was Josh! Oh man, he thought we were in danger. Now he was going to do something stupid. Scratch that, he was doing something stupid.
Alexandria! Sarah! Get out of here! Josh yelled at us.
Dude, we came here on purpose to track Cory! I yelled back at him in thought-speak.
Josh pulled up sharply, which was a very good thing because a guy in the crowd shot a tranquilizer at that very moment. The dart missed him by mere millimeters. It didn't matter, our cover was blown.
"What was that crazy bird?" Sarah asked Cory.
"Come on Sammy, we are so out of here." I said and practically dragged Sarah away from the place.
"What were you doing?" Hope asked in an eerily calm manner the next day after school. We had been signed up for classes that were either too advanced for us or ones that we were too advanced for. It was not fun when I had to learn AP German after three years of learning Spanish.
"Sarah and Alexandria were there, so I just automatically assumed they were in trouble." Josh replied.
"And you don't think of asking them? You could have been caught or stuck in morph or something." Hope was on the brink of screaming and ripping his head off.
"I told you to stay away." Bade told Josh.
"I didn't hear you." He replied.
"By the way, what were you doing there?" Hope asked Sarah and me.
"We were following your brother. We thought that maybe if we followed him, we'd find an entrance." I answered.
Hope massaged her temples, "It was a good plan, but it just backfired on us."
"What did you find?" Sarah asked.
"They know we're out there. I had to demorph before the meeting ended."
"Shoot that means they'll take precautions."
"Deadly precautions," I added a little unnecessarily.
"Let's see, what precautions did they use last time?" Bade asked.
"I don't know. Does anyone actually stay awake in history class here?" Sarah asked us. We all shook our heads.
"I never thought I would actually be an Animorph." Hope admitted.
"None of us did. To make things worse, we still don't know where an entrance is," Josh said.
"I could have wrecked everything, they saw me as a fly," Hope sighed.
"What is it like to morph possibly the most disgusting thing in the world?" I asked.
"Actually, a fly is the third most disgusting thing. In second place is the cockroach and the first is Cory." Sarah pointed out. It was the truth.
"What about Yeerk?" Josh asked.
"Doesn't beat Cory," Sarah said with a smile.
"Anyways, could we please stop talking about how gross and slimy Hope's step-brother is and talk about the mission," Bade said at the brink of yelling.
"I think they might have seen me morph to fly completely." Hope continued.
"Huh?" I questioned.
"I wasn't completely morphed to fly; I was a bit too big. I was afraid that if I morphed anymore, they would see or the instincts would take over."
"Oh."
"I had to morph all the way so I could escape." We all sat there without a word.
"We need a way to get into the Yeerk pool and not get caught." Sarah said after a long while of silence which I believe is a record for her.
"Well duh," I snapped.
"I have a plan that is absolutely insane, which just proves I belong in the nut house, but I believe it will work…" Sarah began.
A/N: I think this chapter was better than my last, but my next chapter should be even better. Please review.
