The Infestation
I didn't know how long I had been out for.
I was being shaken awake, I opened my eyes to see Cassie looking down at me, and the others crowded around. I seen forest beyond them. They must have gotten me out of that place.
I slowly got my upper half upright. My head felt really heavy, as if it wasn't only my brain inside my head. "Wha-what happened?" I asked, confused.
"Um, you blacked out," Rachel said.
"Oh," I said.
Something forced me to get up onto my feet. I felt like my memories were being opened and looked through, by somebody else except me.
"Ugh, my head hurts," I grumbled.
"Maybe you should go home?" suggested Cassie.
"Thanks, I suppose," I shrugged.
What was wrong with me? It was like I wasn't myself, like I wasn't controlling my body or what I was saying.
The other Animorphs decided to go home as well. As I began walking home, I heard a gasp. Then I heard some words. It cannot be! It simply cannot be! The Andalite bandits aren't really Andalite bandits - but humans!
That was when I knew that I had a Yeerk inside my head.
