With the fight over and done with Istood back from the scene with his face looking down. I hadn't expected things to end up like this, and gory scenes were never something I could handle well. I was surprised that I wasn't feeling sick at that moment,but I guess grizzly bear would be used to seeing dead bodies. Still, I wasn't so I turned myself around so I didn't have to look at it.

I saw that Ais had her arm securely around her brother, who was no longer a lion. The polar bear, who I assumed was Leah, had morphed back to human and was over by the wolf. In fact, the only one's not demorphed yet were me and the wolf, who I assumed was this Edward guy. I thought I should demorph at that moment, but I remembered my clothes were back at the bathroom.

<Uh,guys, unless you need me to stay here I got to get going. My clothes are back at the bathroom so I can't really demorph. Unless we're close to the two hour limit.>

(Whammyman, you're backwards again. The Wolf is Edward, and he's out cold. The bear was Leah. She's human again.)

"Go on, Rich. Do what you need to do. You have maybe ten minutes, but that's pushing it. Next time you find yourself with some money, pick up a morph-watch. They en't cheap, but they're worth it."
The universe is, instant by instant, re-created anew. There is, in truth, no Past, only a memory of the Past. Blink your eyes, and the world you see next did not exist when you closed them. The only appropriate state of the mind is surprise. The only appropriate state of the heart is joy. The sky you see now, you have never seen before. The perfect moment is now. Be glad of it.

I woke up, my head pounding. <Uh... what happened?> I asked, trying to get up, and stumbling. Something in my head told me to demorph. <How long have I been out? Am I past the two hour limit?> I asked, hoping that someone would know. I attempted to morph back, and fortunately, I was able to. The only thing I was wearing, however, was my boxers. I shrugged it off, and started hoping to find clothes immediately. "Is everyone alright?" I asked as well, looking around for any damage, taking in the wreckage. "Oh..." I commented, wondering what exactly happened.

(I think I'll keep my wolf morph.... I enjoy using it, and if I need another one, I'll find a way to get it.)

[OOC:*bangs head on all*.I think we need a smiley of that. Anyways, corrected the mistake.Again.]

<Can do Ais.>

With only ten minutes left I decided to not risk it and just moved to a bush. I concentrated on my human form and felt myself begin to change again. All that muscle and bulk just dissolved, and the fur was sucked back into my body.I could feel my hands and feet shift from paws into hands, and my face flattened back to normal. I hit the ground with an "oof" when it was all over. I had successfully shifted from human to bear and back to human. Though I would take Ais's advice and get a watch, and some morphing clohtes.

I raced to the bathroom, glad to see that my clothes were untouched. Quickly putting them back on I walked back over to where the other's were. Glancing at my watch I saw it was getting pretty close to seven o' clock.

Well, I should be able to get by a few minutes late if I just explained, or lied, about something. Not to hard.

"So, uh, what do we do now?" I asked Ais. By now everyone had unmorphed, which was relief.

"I think we are. I am, at least. I'm going to fly, since, you know, I don't really have any clothes." A strange feeling began to tug at my insides. A nagging feeling. I felt like I was forgetting something--or someone. "Oh, no," I said. "Aaron's gone. I should have known he would do this! Well, it's not like the Yeerks don't already know who we are. I--I'm sure we'll find him later," I said reassuringly, more to myself than to the others.

"We've got Alistair, and we can get Aaron. Don't give up hope. Would you mind flying above us, Leah, lookout-like? I don't know that there are any more of them around, but I'd like the help, just in case."

"I'll help too" I said. "I need the fresh air to clear my mind... Alistair packs quite a punch" I said, in a half-hearted grin. I closed my eyes, and focused my pounding head on my falcon morph.

I watched Edward morph as I kept a tight lock on Alistair's neck.

"So, you have a falcon morph, too? Interesting!"

In my falcon morph, I spoke. <My yeerk picked this one up... Its a predator bird, can see for miles, and is powerful... everything a Yeerk could possibly want..> I said, with a small wince. <Ais, you do realize how painful this is going to be for Alistair? I went nearly 3 days once... my Mom and I went on a trip, and I got back 2 hours before the deadline... My yeerk nearly died of hunger.>

A thought occurred to me suddenly. "Yeerk," I began. "You do realize starvation will be unbelievably painful. Well, if you leave your host, we can kill you now. Cut you in half, stomp you into the sidewalk, whatever you like. You won't suffer nearly as much." I took a moment to let my words soak in, hoping no one would protest.

"I wouldn't give you the pleasure." The Yeerk spat.

"Edward, I'm well aware of that. It seems that it shall be necessary, but I know that my brother will forgive me."

The Yeerk tensed up for a moment.

"What is it, slug?"

"You're serious, aren't you? You'd let your twin go through that?"

"Of course, if it saves him. He'd do the same, if it were me."

"No, he wouldn't."

"If you aren't going to leave him, why do you persist in arguing? Can't you starve to death quietly?"

That shut him up for a moment.

He spoke again.
"Alright. I was bluffing. I'll do it. Just...do you promise to make it quick?"

"On my word as a Scot. Ask Him what that means."

"I understand."

Slowly, the slug oozed out of Alistair's ear. I flicked it off his shoulder.

It landed on the ground.

I drew my knife and sliced it into three pieces. I stomped the pieces. I spat on them.

"Th-thank you."

Alistair took over stomping.

"Ali, let's go home."

"Home."

The longing in his voice brought tears to my eyes. I hugged my brother for what felt like forever.

"Home." He repeated. "Yeah. That sounds good."

I wrapped my arm around my brother's waist, supporting him as he regained control of his balance.
We walked slowly home, not caring if the others followed or not.
I had my brother back.
So, the rest of the world could just cheerfully go away and screw itself, as long as it left us alone.
I had my brother back, and nothing else mattered.

I winced when Ais chopped the Yeerk up. <Was that really necessary?> I asked as I flapped my wings, trying to get leverage to watch over the group as they walked to wherever they were going. <I mean, I know its a parasitic slug that possesses people, but its a sentient being... like a human, minus the limbs...> I started flying, remembering how... human my Yeerk was at times. Silently, I broadcasted my thoughts to Alistair. <You and me, Alistair.. we're the lucky ones... there were a few Controllers I knew who got all the memories of their old Yeerks when they were killed by Kandrona Starvation... Anyways, its good to have you back...> I continued, making COMPLETELY sure that my thoughts were private. <And please don't mention how brutal I... my Yeerk was when I was controlled..>

"Yes, it was necessary. It was the fastest way for him to go, and I keep my word."

Alistair said, "Okay."

I wondered what THAT was all about.

(alright... see you on Tuesday... a note for everyone else, I'm starting camp soon (day camp), only on after 6)

<Good...> I thought, and soared higher into the air, riding on a thermal. <Nothing's up, save for a brief collision on Main Street. Its safe>
