Tobias winced as the syringe's liquid entered his bloodstream. The last thing he saw was Visser Three's sneering face… and then darkness closed in.
"Why can't we take a Yeerk from a Taxxon or Hork-bajir then kill the host?"
"We cannot afford to waste Yeerks. The Andalites are coming and we need as many troops as we can afford. The last attack on the Kadrona Pool was only too successful, I fear. We know that there are a group of Cy-Yeerks which are immune to the filthy gas the Andalite troops introduced into the air."
In his semi-conscious state, Tobias heard Visser Three sneer at the word 'Andalite'. There was a hatred in the Visser's voice that spanned over dozens of Yeerk-controlled solar systems.
"So, the liquid we injected into the Andalite will create an activating code which the Cy-Yeerks alone will be able to decode. They will then be able to capture the Andalite bandit."
Tobias blinked, trying to comprehend the situation, but his brain just didn't seem to be working too well.
