okay, I'm back.
CHAPTER 2
TRIT
They looked very cool. I looked closer at one. They took no notice of me. I soon forgot about them and began to worry. Where was I? I hadn't ever came to this place before. I walked through the forest for a little while longer and ended up coming back to the lake. I was very thirsty and hot. I stepped in. It was cool and refreshing despite it's sludgy appearence. I soon dunked myself all the way under the water. I was swimming up to take a breath when I felt something touch my ear. It was slimy and unpleasant. I felt something go into my ear. It hurt. I broke through the water and climbed onto the land. My head was swimming. I laid down against a tree and fell asleep.
Then, I heard something in my head. It was speaking in strange words but I understood it.
<What's this? Where am I? What am I? What are these visions of beauty? What are these thoughts?>
<Who is that?> I thought in my head.
<I am Espino 948. I am a Yeerk. And now, I am you,> the voice responded.
<I don't understand.>
<You will.>
I tried to get up. I couldn't.
<Why can't I move!?! What's happened to me?!>
<Nothing has happened to you. You can't move because I control you.>
<How?>
<It is how my species exists, we are parasites. We live in the minds of others. Our sun keep us alive. The Kandrona.>
<What are you going to do with me?>
<I am going to use you to let my species have these gifts.>
<What gifts?>
<Sight, touch, scent, and oh so many others that I haven't discovered yet.>
<Why don't you have any of these senses? You act as if you are still young Gedd. It takes two lights and two darks for younglings to open their eyes and see.>
<We don't have eyes.>
<What are you going to do with me?> I asked again.
<You, are going to be the tool to your race's destruction, that is what I am going to do with you.> His laughter filled my head. His cruel, evil laughter.
(You may be wondering why I am in the first host. It is because when Espino was promoted to Hork-Bajir his host was left behind. I was assigned it.)
You may notice that I changed the Yeerks name. I realized I made a small mistake in putting that Yeerk as the host sooo...
