Charlie continues evaluating bears, periodically asking what they want, and trying to get away.

When the third bear shows up, the second one wanders off.

Sugar Bear sticks with him, then walks away when the second one - or is that a fourth? - comes back.

Permalink

"What do you want from me?" demands - well, the Yeerk.

Permalink

The bears are silent.

Permalink

So are the pigeons, yet unnoticed.

Permalink

Charlie is starting to look... uncomfortable.

Permalink

Good for Charlie.

Permalink
Not so good for his passenger.

His passenger sits Charlie down. And looks uncomfortable.

The bears are patient.

They do have to be patient. They don't have to be very patient, though.

By late afternoon, Charlie's curled up in a ball, making pained noises.

And by the time the sun goes down, an unhappy-looking slug-shape slides out of his ear.

<The Yeerk's out,> Trouble reports to his fellow Animorphs.

He reaches forward and spears it with a claw, just to make sure.

Charlie stays curled up in a ball, but relaxes, some.

"Now what?" he mumbles.

Pigeons land. (One pigeon lands on Trouble-the-bear.)

Pigeons demorph.

"What."

Trouble-the-bear snickers over thought-speak.

"No, really - girls - what? Bella, you're sitting on an Andalite bear, you were a pigeon, what's going on."

Permalink

"We're not any of us Andalites," says Andi. "We're Animorphs. Are you okay, Daddy?"

Permalink

"I'm - fine, for now anyway - what's an Animorph?"

Permalink

"We were thinking we'd fake your death, unless you have a better idea," Bella says. "An Andalite gave us morph tech, but then he died."

Permalink




"What?"
Permalink

"A few weeks ago," elaborates Andi. "And then we found out what the Sharing is and knew you had to have one of those things so we saved you."

Permalink

"Do we need to fake your death or do you or your ex-Yeerk have some kind of extremely convenient circumstance?"

Permalink

"How were you planning to fake my death?"
