Jake POV

"Are you sure we need to go back down there?" Marco asks, staring at me like I'm crazy.

I nod. "Yes. I have a feeling that we might be able to take it out once and for all."

Rachael glares at me. "You have a feeling?"

I sigh. "I know it's not enough to go on, but…"

"I'm with Jake on this one." Cassie interjects suddenly. Everyone looks over at her.

"You actually think that we should go back down into the Yeerk pool that's below the school?" Marco inquires.

She nods. "I have the same feeling. I can't explain it. I just…"

"Know that it's going to happen this time." I finish.

"Yeah."

"Well. Lets have a vote. Who thinks that we shouldn't go back to the Yeerk pool?" Marco and Tobias, in human morph, raise their hands.

"I just don't think we should go off feelings." Tobias replies. "If you're wrong and we don't take it out and one of us die, then we would've died for nothing."

"He's got a point." Rachael whispers.

"Ok. Now, who thinks that we should go to the Yeerk pool and try to take it out a second time?" Rachael, Cassie, and I raise our hands. "What about you, Ax?"

Ax looks at me with his large, Andalite eyes. "{I go where you go, Prince Jake.}"

I sigh. "Please don't call me that. Just call me Jake."

"{As you, wish Prince Jake.}" Ax replies.

"So, it's settled. We're going back into the Yeerk pool." I look at everyone's face. Marco and Tobias resigned, Rachael triumph, Cassie determined, and Ax blank.
