9:22 am

Jake was content to cancel the meeting the day we announced our engagement. But he wasn't going to lose two days to it. I can't say I blame him though.

"So what's on the agenda today Jake?" Marco said. As I sat down I noticed that Rachel, and Tobias were conspicuously absent from the meeting. Once everyone had been seated Jake stood up.

"OK, I've just got some bad news from Erek, it seems that the Yerks now have deicded to search for us, we have Rachel to thank for this, well they're planning to use a stattilte system to scan the entire country, they will take aerial photos, now this may take a few months but I'd prefer they don't get a chance. To find us.

"One of the satellite receptors is located in Wilmington, hidden in the Cape Fear Museum, we need to get there and take it out. Now Wilmington is on the coast, that's a seven hour drive from here. So we're going to have to leave soon. Once we get there Jerry will need to hack into the computer at the receptionist's desk to figure out how to get in there once in we're going to run into security, and lots of it, so I want everyone to go into the museum in battle morph. Once we fight in far enough we'll get to the signal room.

"When we get there Jerry will install a virus onto the network to knock out the satellites, and we'll comence to trashing the place. And Erik, no human casualties remember that."

"Where's Rachel and Tobias?" I asked.

"That's a good question, Erik," Jake said condescendingly. "Rachel and Tobias are not here because Rachel is a rouge wolf and Tobias is whipped, if either one of them knew about this mission we'd have a big problem, because Rachel would end up showing up and we need stable people on this mission we can't afford anymore screw-ups like last time. So everyone get up we're going now."

"WHAT!" Me, Karen, Cassie, Jerry, Amy, Anna, Fred, and James all said at once.

"We need to leave while Rachel and Tobias are out on their 'date'. Ax if when come back then tell them we went off for Erik and Karen's Bachelor parties."

(Yes prince Jake, but if I may ask what is a bachelor party?) Ax asked.

"Long story Ax, don't have time lets go." Jake said. We left, I knew it wouldn't be good to argue, I had the feeling I'd be needed on this mission.

10:30 am

(OK) I said in private thought speak to Amy. We were in our buzzard morphs flying towards the city where we would take the bus to Wilmington. (Danny has a dead drop set up near the museum, you need to go pick up your sniper rifel and take a post out side the museum. Try not to kill any cops but do what you need to, I don't want anyone following us down there so if anyone tries to enter fire a warning shot then your are to terminate. Understand.)

(Yes.) Amy said. Amy had always taken her job seriously. She rarely morphed, in fact I think she has only one or two good battle morphs. Her main job has been as a sniper and she has been very useful to my team. But Amy wasn't made for war, it used to be her boyfriend's infestation that kept her fighting, but her boyfriend became Visser 8, and she had to kill him. Now she was fueled by revenge on the Yerks.

After that she had taken the stress of the war hard, but she still did her job. We arrived at the bus station an hour early. I sat down and held hands with Karen, who insisted on fighting alongside me on this mission, she told me that she didn't like being on the outside when I was risking my life.

I watched the other passengers file in and I took an extra look at one, tall, black hair, pale, I doubted he was who I thought he was. Since Jade had said that she wouldn't be able to make it to the wedding, it was unlikely that anyone associated with her team, (that I called Golden Fist) would be hanging around, but still…

"Are you checking out other girls already?" Karen said teasingly.

"No it's a boy." I said.

"Good lord I didn't know that about you !" Karen said, but she was smiling , smiling that wonderful smile. I kissed her, and for a moment there was nothing but me and her.

"Bus 132 non-stop to Wilmington is now boarding."

"That's our cue." Jake said and we walked onto the bus." I noticed the brown haired kid follow us on.

7:45 pm

The trip over was a ordeal. I sat next to an elderly lady. At first I enjoyed her stories, but then she started vividly describing the birth of her children. After I heard that I was happy that I was sterile there was no way I could put Karen thorough that, I couldn't even stand to see her prick her finger. I finally pretended to be asleep and she started talking to Marco.

The trip took a long time and it took even longer because we got stuck in a traffic jam. When we got to the museum it was long since closed. Meaning we'd have to break in. Karen decided to do the honors. She got wide really wide. Black hair began to break out on her face. Her lips burst out and large antlers grew from her head. He legs turned inward and grew to so did her arms. I saw her closing her eyes tightly trying to slow the pain. Her hands and feet became hoofs, and her tail grew.

Karen was the only person I knew that could morph an animal of the opposite sex without screaming soon she was a full grown male Canadian Moose.

"Hey where are Boris and Natasha?" Marco asked.

"What?" Jerry said.

"Rocky and Bullwienkille come on man, are there any classics left?" Marco said. Karen stood back and got ready to charge.

"I wouldn't do that if I were you," A voice said. "That windows alarmed you set it off and every Yerk in the city will be here in ten minutes." I turned around, the boy who had followed us here was standing there.

"Hey Robert." I said.

"Hey, Erik." Robert responded.
