The dusty old road caused the black suburban to bump up and down as it traveled through the wooded hillsides. They had been out of the city limits for some time now, driving to who knows where. They had been ‘recruited’ at the college to help the community, but with what remained unclear. The vehicle’s breaks squeaked as it turned into a worn-out driveway and maneuvered around a few shrubs that had grown over the trail. The vehicle stopped in an overgrown quarry, with rock walls on three sides. There was a limo there as well.
As everyone got out of the suburban, two men got out of the limousine as well. One man was formally dressed, but the other was wearing bicycle shorts and a t-shirt that was too small.
“I suppose you are wondering what this is all about,” said the formally dressed man. “I assure you that it is of utmost importance.” He and the other man walked closer to the group, stepping around weeds and mud puddles. “My name is Harold McCartle, and this is my good friend, Yorishus-Plentok-Hisk. He is, of course, an andalite.”
The poorly dressed man suddenly began to change shape. Bluish-tan hair erupted over his body, his mouth disappeared, and a pair of legs sprouted from his chest. Soon two extra eyes grew out of his head on stalks and began looking around. Then a long tail erupted from his tailbone with a wicked looking blade on the end. No doubt this guy was an andalite. <We are in need of some service,> his voice spoke in their minds. <The yeerks are not quite as extinct as you may think.>
“It is true. When the yeerks lost earth, it was a crippling blow, but small fleets did survive in the depths of space with portable kendronas. They have recently made an attempt to reinvade Earth because of our status as a class five species. We have evidence that suggests these renegades are posing as a youth community group in town. However, they have been so secretive that most do not believe it is true. Even the andalite and human governments are dismissing the rumors. They say it is not possible. That is why we brought this.” He pulled out a blue cube from his pocket and handed it to the andalite.
<We have done something very illegal in order to help ensure the safety of your species. I have purchased this device from an illegal market. If I get caught, my tail blade will be removed and I will be thrown into exile. This device will give you the ability to acquire and then become any animal for two hours at a time. If you wish to help your species, place your hand on this cube.> He held out the device so that they all could reach.

Many thoughts were running through Corey’s head as they raced down the road in a shiny black Suburban. Where were they taken them? There were a few other college students in the vehicle as well, but they seemed to be as clueless as them. They had said something about community service, but they had never said what kind. Corey wasn’t completely sure this was some sort of “community service.” She guessed she would just have to find out.
As soon as they parked and got out, they were greeted by two men who got out of a limousine.
‘Yeah, this definitely has to do with the government…..’ Corey thought, as they walked over to the two men.
Well…. At least one of them had to do with the government. The only was dressed like someone that they had picked up off the street like them. Corey looked down at herself and remembered why she had felt underdressed when compared to the men driving the Suburban. She was still wearing her slightly Speedo swim from her morning swim workout. She had this all covered by stretchy dance pants and a loose t-shirt. Corey had been on her way back to her dorm room to change when they had approached her about this project.
She then stood and listened as the government man talked and reveal that the other guy was an Andalite. Corey almost had to stop herself from gasping. She had always thought they were pretty, but seeing one in person was just too much. It was just like her seeing a gorgeous horse on TV, and then seeing it in one of her Pentathlon competitions.
Corey tried to process the information as fast as it was getting thrown at them. So they wanted them to help fight off a possible threat of more Yeerks. Sounded like a blast. Besides, she had always been one for a bit of adventure, and this was certain to cause some. She just hoped it didn't interfer with her schooling, competing, or dancing.
“I’m in,” Corey said, reaching out towards the cube. She didn’t figure she would be able to back out now anyway. They had obviously chosen her and these other people for certain reasons. Why deny them someone they thought would do a good job.
“Is there anything we should know before we agree to this though? I’m in, but I want to know if there’s a catch,” Corey asked, her hand inches from the blue cube. She just wanted a little bit more information before she got herself involved in this.

John saw Mr. McCartle blush, but then responded to the girl’s question. “I was kind of hoping to avoid this question,” he said, “but I guess it can not be helped. The only ‘catch’ is that we will not be here to help you out. Yorishus has to leave to go back to the andalite homeworld in a few hours, and I am going with as a representative of the Human Interest Project. The program that is helping humans to obtain positive relations with extraterrestrial societies. Clark, on the other hand,” he said while motioning to the driver, “will still be on earth. He works for the city zoo and will take you there after you leave to help get you started. However, he does not want to get too involved, because he wants to keep his family protected.”
This was a lot to pile on a person at one time and John did not know what to think. He had been walking past the college on the way home from work when Clark convinced him to come along to help the community. He promised it would not be boring, and he was definitely right about that. John had been trying to find a way to add some excitement to his life, but this was a little extreme.
It was common knowledge that it was illegal to get the morphing ability, and practically impossible anyway. The only people on earth who had that ability were some of the ex-controllers and the Animorphs who saved the Earth from the first invasion, and all of them had to fill out some sort of government paperwork so that it would be public knowledge that they could morph. If they were caught, it meant a hefty fine and a lot of jail time.
However, he could not just sit by when a possible invasion was about to take place. Besides, the girl had the guts to join and he was not about to be outdone by her. “I’m in too,” John said, putting his hand on the side of the cube. This could get interesting, he thought to himself.

Alex thought about his situation for a moment, and knew immediately what his answer would be. He left his home in the hopes of leading a more interesting life, and couldn't think of anything to top this. "Sounds like a good deal." he said as he approached the cube. He hesitated when he went to put his hand on the cube, as a new question entered his mind. Why am I doing this, he asked himself. Alex struggled to decide if he was doing this to help the others of his species or if he just wanted power. Then, he finally came to a conclusion and put his hand on the cube. He wanted to help humanity, that was what he really wanted. Though he was a natural altruist, he admittedly liked being able to do things that other people couldn't, but still, more of a reason to help them. He closed his eyes and waited to see what would happen.

As they stood there in the quarry, touching a cube that an alien was holding, John could not help but feel a little bit silly. Then a shock from the cube went through him, but it did not hurt. It actually felt quite pleasurable. “Whoa,” he commented quietly. Was that really all there was to it?
<You are now morph capable,> the andalite said. <We must now be on our way. This was not an officially scheduled stop, and it is important that we do not draw suspicion to ourselves.> On that note, he began to morph back into his human shape.
“Are there any questions before we go?” Mr. McCartle asked, “Otherwise we need to get moving.” He paused as he started to get into his limo, waiting to see if anyone was going to ask something. John's head was too full of questions to pick out any single one.

Zane looked up from the cube, and ran his hand through his white hair. He had a lot of questions and comments, but for once in his life, his brain and mouth didn't seem to be connected right, and he hadn't been able to speak, as there were butterflies all over the place in his stomach. He was slightly getting over the shock now, and their was one question he wanted to ask the most, but he wasn't sure wether to address the andalite or the man.
After a moment of deliberation he decided to just ask both.
"How...How many Yeerks are there? Specifically." He asked,
He doubted that they would have an exact number, but it was worth asking.

I had been completely quiet, somewhat in awe of the andalite and as well the cube that I had for some odd reason felt obliged to touch. Wait- hadn't he said something about saving our race?
I felt so odd, so many questions, but I was still somewhat convinced deep down that I was dreaming. So I just stayed quiet, looking as the andalite reformed as a human.
"Morph?" I whispered, more to myself than anyone. I shook it off and waved my hand to show that I wasn't going to ask questions. I stared at my fingertips, wondering what I had just done. I looked up at the others now. Were we all connected somehow?
Probably so. And how had we been chosen? I looked at them as I wondered when the men would leave with the andalite...
[I can do a lot longer I just think I'm about to get off]

“How many yeerks are there? That is a good question,” the looked like he was thinking then said, “We do not know. Probably a few hundred, but that is assuming they have not reproduced. There could potentially be thousands, but that is not too likely. Also keep in mind that most of these yeerks probably do not have hosts yet. Any more questions?”
John’s heart sunk. Hundreds sounded bad enough, but thousands? What had he gotten himself into?

Zane blinked, thousands sounded like a little more than the aforementioned "Community Service Group", he knew how fast they reproduced too, this wasn't going to be very fun.
There was one other question, looking at the andalite he asked, "I know this is generally looked down upon, and I probably shouldn't be asking this, but may we use your form for a morph? It would be very useful to have an Andalite morph. I can understand you saying no though."
Zane nervously thought about the andalites wicked sharp tail and hoped that he didn't just commit a serious andalite social blunder, but it was really important that they have at least one super powerful morph.
He thought the blade again and winced. Hope I didn't offend him he thought to himself.

John was a little shocked that the white-haired guy would ask such a thing. The andalite looked at Zane from the other side of the vehicle, now completely human, and said, “I would have considered it if we were not so pressed for time. I do not have the time to demorph and then remorph. However, I would have had to decline anyway. If a copy of myself were seen on earth, it would be all too obvious that I had been acquired. The problems that would create are not worth the trouble.”
“Anyway,” Mr. McCartle continued, “Like I said before. Clark over there will help you get some morphs at the zoo once you go back to the city.” He looked at his watch. “Well, we really got to be going. Sorry if you still wanted to ask me something.” They got into the limo and drove out of the old quarry.
As the limo disappeared behind some trees, John's thoughts quickly shifted to the zoo. Which animal should I acquire first…

Zane sat down on the ground, "And...they're gone. Well, I don't know about you, but I'm not to sure about how they went about doing that. I'm all for protecting the Earth and stuff, but the way they just kinda kidnapped us was pretty random, besides that we probably need to figure out what morphs he want. I was thinking we should get different morphs for each of us, but we should all get some of the same morphs."
Zane thought about it, if it weren't for the Yeerks this would be really fun.
"Also, besides the zoo, if anyone needs some morphs, I work at a vet's, so if anyone ever feels the need of obtaining a morph of your basic house pet, that's probably the best place to go." He said.
He smiled, "Allthough I wouldn't recommended absorbing the morph of a house cat. Unless we have a dire need to consume food."

Alex stood up and stretched. "Well, this should be fun. I say we get a move on." he said as he cracked his shoulders and sternum. "Apparently, we've got work to do. Those yeerks aren't going to kill themselves...unless we're lucky enough to be going up against some really depressed slugs." Alex was getting a little too excited, but of course, he didn't really have a choice at this point. With or without him being involved, a ton of yeerks were on their way, and he would have much rathered to go out fighting than as a slave. "So, to the zoo?"
Re: Animorphs RP [Full] ( )
by gusty on Sat Aug 16, 2008 4:52 am
"I would say to the zoo yeah." Zane replied, he stood up off the ground, looking around at everyone, he hoped they were all up to this. "Only problem. What if someone other than Clark sees us getting the animals DNA at the Zoo?" he asked, "For some reason, I don't think they'll buy it if we tell them that we just wanted to pet the lion."
He laughed as he thought about it, "Actually if we're gonna be fighting the yeerk and all that, this may be the easiest part."
Zane was completly terrified of the situation, but he wasn't about to let that on to the group, that would be pointless. They had been chosen, therefore they were doing it. It's not like any of them could back out now. The only thing showing that he was scared would accomplish is worrying everyone else.

I pushed my hands through my hair and stepped forward, drawing my eyes to Zane. I had been thinking, being silent. It was polite, since I had never truly been around an andalite before. I stared at Zane for a moment, letting my eyes observe his features. As I did with everything. Something I had learned to do in college with art. I draped his face with my sight and then drew my eyes focused to his.
"I work at a mansion. It is called Dragonfly Landing. It's almost like a ranch for exotic animals and some normal animals. They are gone for the day, and I could probably get us all there. It's just that some of the cages are forbidden, and the keys are with the owner." I smiled faintly, spreading my attention over the rest of the group.
I wondered what they would think.
Then I wondered of all the animals there, what would I pick?

"Hmmm, well if we went to the zoo, we could always steal some zoo keeper uniforms, but then again, that's still dangerous. I know! We all have several options available to us. Let's just pick what we feel comfortable with and meet back up. How about it?" Alex was feeling confident about this. He wasn't afraid of other people trying to stop him, and he didn't think to be afraid of the animals.
Re: Animorphs RP [Full] ( )

John thought that was a good idea. He was about to say something when Clark spoke up.
“Well, whatever you decide, we might as well start heading back to town. I actually would prefer fewer people coming to the zoo with me. The fewer people I bring along, the less likely I am to get caught and fired. I got a wife and kids to feed, so if this was not so important, I would never have agreed to help out.” Clark got into the suburban and waited for the others to do the same.
John was close behind, “Come on you guys, we can decide on the way.” He buckled himself into one of the seats. “So what animals does everyone have access to at home?” he asked, “I got a goldfish.”

"Don't worry, once we get there, I'll just be some delinquent kid who wanted a closer look at the panther." Alex said with a smile. "I have a rat. He's probably the best pet I've ever had." Alex was starting to relax now, even though his mind told him that he shouldn't have. Then again, not much got to him to begin with. He was always pretty carefree, which could be good or bad, depending on the situation.

I laughed, crawling into the Suburban.
"I have a peacock, a siamese cat, and hundreds of finches and cichlids (fish)." I chuckled again, thinking that someone having a rat as a pet was funny. Then the though of delinquent Alex also made me laugh.
"Yeah, you can always just dress up like a big kid who lost his mom." I said lightly, smiling. I felt better to be out of the strange and back here.
I leaned back, wondering what I could do. I knew that at Dragonfly Landing there were eagles and cats and dogs and birds. Eagle sounded very appealing... I laughed to myself. What else? They had snakes in the basement, but the class cases were locked and I didn't have the keys. They were fed through a strange drawer that allowed no touching between feeder and the feeding.
There were some donkeys and horses, but those were impossible to catch, most of them being untame...
Hm, options were many, I just had to not be so picky...

"Wow, that's quite a collection." Alex said. He laughed when the girl suggested that he dress up as a lost kid. "Or maybe I should be the mother." He laughed again as he imagined himself dressed as an old lady with a high pitched voice. "Okay, maybe not." If nothing else, Alex hoped that he could lighten the others' moods. This task was likely to be incredibly difficult, so a laugh here and there would be good for the group, he thought.
