Chapter two

"Sub-visser?"
I turned away from the wall. At least, my body had. The Yeerk inside was pulling all the strings.
The sub-visser once again used my voice to speak. "What is it?" He snapped.
"Temrash-four-two-nine has gone missing. Has been since Animorphs attack," The Hork-Bajir known as Yekim 3769 reported. "New morpher fall in pool," he added.
"What was the morph?"
"Gefrash wolf, sub-visser."
"The ear canal on a wolf is too small. Temrash couldn't have infested the Animorph."
>New morpher?> I asked Jakel, the Yeerk.
>Your friend. Or her sisters.>
>April? She has the morphing power?>
>Apparently.>
>But then…>
>You agreed to this. Those 'Animorphs' are meddlesome fools, and would make our next move difficult. Extremely difficult.>
And Jakel was right. I had agreed to my infestation. I controlled my own body on some days, and Jakel let me do some things, not that he wasn't harsh and cruel like most Yeerks were. He just liked to let me be. And if I did anything to endanger the Streefland Project, he would stop me.
He would, at any given time, make me kill April to promote the Yeerks. And April was reported as 'missing' by her parents, so the trail would be cleaned up if I had to.
And that would be the one thing that would destroy me, in the end.
>You agreed that if she got in the way, you would be the one to eliminate her.>
"Sub-visser?" The Hork-Bajir asked.
"Send Shae and Wiley," Jakel ordered, referring to two morphables. "Make sure that Temrash is accounted for. If he is inside the morpher, leave him. Give him a portable Kandrona, we can't risk the Animorphs finding—"
A console beeped, cutting Jakel off.
"What is it?" He barked at a technician.
"Sub-visser, there appears to be a Yeerk distress beacon activating. It is from Temrash 429," He added nonchalantly as if he hadn't been listening to our conversation.
"Send Shae and Wiley to his location. Give him the Kandrona, and insist that he report to me with a Z-space transmission every evening, to find out their plans," Jakel said to Yekim.
>How do you know he has Ap… well, an Animorph?> I asked.
>Would he be reporting if he didn't? If he did, he would call, if he didn't, he would return to the pool rather than the beacon.>
Seemed logical. I had gotten less smart as the Yeerk took over my school life.
"If Shae and Wiley do not return… Well, we'll see."
"Yes, sub-visser." The Hork-Bajir bowed, and left the room.
"We will see..."
I would like to say CARMEL APPLE POPS TO ALL! Sorry, I'm hyper 'cause I finally told my crush I liked him and I think he likes me too! Squee! Which character do you like best? Just wondering; I'm thinking about adding one of a few new ones that are similar to existing OCs, so I would like to know who everyone likes best to see which one I should add.
Zenon Kar: YAY! New reviewer! Thank you. No signs of Mary-sueness?
KP: Well, I suppose that's somewhat funny. I never laughed at that, but hey, everyone has their own sense of humor...
Elwing: Well, that's a long story, but I only got into them after the series ended in '01. Yeah, there's still one planned sequel that may end up being split in two... But most likely won't.
Janika: Just did.
