Fanfic / What Tomorrow Brings

A second chance, unlooked for. The more things change, the more they stay the same…

What Tomorrow Brings is an Animorphs Peggy Sue fic by daphnerunning and Loren_Fangor. After Jake rams the Blade Ship, the Animorphs are sent back in time to the morning before they met Elfangor and their lives were changed forever. They see this as an opportunity to make amends with each other and do things better this time, but it soon transpires that they're not alone...

Due to the nature of this fic, all spoilers for the Animorphs books will be unmarked.

This fanfic contains examples of:

• Abled in the Adaptation: Thanks to Elfangor, who encounters Gafinilan and Mertil soon after the crash and carries with him advanced healing tech, Mertil's severed tail is saved. He does get a Rugged Scar out of the deal, but Elfangor suspects he kind of likes it.
• Achievements in Ignorance: Tom is able to avoid the traumatising experience of the other Animorphs when they morphed ants because he just happened to acquire the Queen of the relevant ant colony, putting him in control of the other ants.
• An Alien Named "Bob": Discussed. Tobias introduces himself as Elfangor's son, and Tom thinks that "Tobias" is an oddly human name for an Andalite.
• Alien Catnip: Andalites apparently get high on protein powder.
• The All-Concealing "I": Chapter 9 is told from the perspective of an unidentified girl trying to escape from Controllers. It's not until her next appearance that we learn she's Loren.
• And the Adventure Continues: The last chapter shows that James and co are fighting the Yeerks in the Animorphs' stead.
• Artistic License – Animal Care: Defied; Cassie recalls a professor at vet school saying that negative reinforcement was a valid training technique for horses. She morphed into a horse and kicked over his desk in retaliation.
• Ascended Extra: Tom is freed early on and becomes a Sixth Ranger for the Animorphs. Mertil and Gafinilan actively fight the Yeerks and become part of the resistance.
• Autobots, Rock Out!: Marco blasts "Come Out and Play" by The Offspring through the Pool Ship during the mission to rescue Jake and Cassie.
• Batman Gambit: When Visser Three and Jake come face-to-face for the first time since their memories of the original timeline have been restored, with Jake in control of a Pool Ship, Visser Three starts offering to kill only the Animorphs and let their allies go free while Jake rejects any such offer. Marco guesses that the two will continue to debate the 'offer' until only Jake is 'obliged' to sacrifice himself, as both enemies know that is the only term Jake will accept.
• Berserk Button: Visser Three appears fully in control and ready for anything when he finds himself in the new reality facing the Animorphs... but the moment he realises that Elfangor is alive on a fighter nearby, he abandons his goal of dealing with the Animorphs to focus on killing Elfangor, even blowing up Visser One's ship to try and destroy Elfangor's fighter.
• Better to Die than Be Killed: Inverted; when Tobias makes it clear to Temrash that he's going to die either way, Temrash chooses to leave Tom and get crushed right away rather than stay in for the next few hours and die of Kandrona starvation.
• Big Damn Kiss: When Tobias and Rachel realise that the other remembers their future, they're actually sent to Chapman's office about their public display of affection, and even after that they "retreat" to a suitable supply closet to enjoy their reunion for a little while to affirm that they're both back.
• Big Damn Reunion:
  • The Animorphs get this when Tobias reveals that it was Ax in the Andalite fighter rather than Elfangor, the rest of the team making it clear that Ax can't get out of the subsequent group hug.
  • The first thing Tom does after he's freed is hug Rachel. Then Jake starts crying after Tom calls him "midget."
  • Tobias is shocked when he finds Elfangor and Loren, and the latter hugs him tightly while sobbing.
• Big Sister Instinct: Rachel goes on a Roaring Rampage of Revenge after a Controller shoots Jordan.
• Birds of a Feather: When circumstances lead to Elfangor and Jake double-teaming Visser Three, Rachel reflects that they move in total sync during their assault, wondering if that’s some kind of connection that only great leaders can achieve.
• Bluff the Impostor: When Jake realises he's been sent back in time, he tells Tom that he hopes to get his spot on the basketball team. Tom says he quit, confirming Jake's suspicions that he's still being controlled by Temrash 114.
• Brain/Computer Interface: Since Yeerk computers are based on Andalite ones, Andalites are able to control them using their minds in a similar manner to thought-speech.
• Breather Episode: After a string of high-intensity chapters with a lot of revelations and character introspection, chapter 14 mainly consists of Cassie telling Jake what she got up to at vet school.
• Canon Character All Along: One of the Controllers who kidnapped Loren turns out to be Feriss 512, AKA Tom's second Yeerk.
• Can't Kill You, Still Need You: Esplin so wants to kill Feriss along with his current host in revenge for the latter betraying him in the original timeline, but he decides to keep him around and command him to kill the Animorphs' families because he can rely on him to be cruel. Later, Jake talks Rachel out of killing some human-Controllers when he points out that they don't know what Feriss' host looks like; if he dies, the original timeline's version of him will be sent over.
• Cassandra Truth: Mertil kidnaps Tom and Marco because he thinks they're Controllers. Marco insists that he's not, even as Tom tells him that it'll do no good.
• Deus ex Machina: By the time Tobias finds Loren and Elfangor, he has proved an old Andalite myth of Fillia-Rillia, a guide-tree who gave the child of a nothlit an Andalite form when the child first came to the homeworld.
• Didn't Think This Through: A minor example; Rachel acquires Gafinilan as part of an assault on the Pool Ship, and only realises after she’s morphed him that he still has his genetic disease, meaning she’s in considerable pain while in his form (to Rachel’s credit, she doesn’t let that slow her down).
• Different World, Different Movies: Discussed. Ax wonders if the new timeline's version of The Young and the Restless has different plots.
• Divergent Character Evolution: In canon, Tom and his second Yeerk never appeared apart once the latter was introduced. Here, the real Tom is one of the narrators, while Feriss 512 makes multiple appearances in his previous human host.
• The Dog Bites Back: Tom beats Ferris 512 (in his host) to a bloody pulp in retaliation for the years of abuse Feriss inflicted upon him in the original timeline.
• Dysfunction Junction: Most of the narrators introspect on their personal problems. Jake reflects on how depressed he was after the war, Tobias thinks that the universe is conspiring against him to make sure he never has a family, Cassie regrets the bad decisions she made towards the end of the war, Ax regrets how closed-off he was from the humans at first, Tom has a ton of self-loathing caused by years of Mind Rape, Elfangor is reluctant to reunite with the love of his life at first, Loren spent years feeling like nothing was real after she lost her memory, et cetera.
• Easy Sex Change: In Chapter 22, Mertil reveals that several Andalites have used the morphing technology to do this via a Frolis manoeuvre if they feel genuinely uncomfortable in their original form.
• Enemy Mine: Marco makes a deal with Visser One to borrow one of her ships and use it to take out Visser Three, their common enemy.
• Entertainingly Wrong:
  • When Tobias introduces himself as Elfangor's son, Tom - under Temrash's control - assumes that Tobias is a real Andalite who's been living on Earth in secret and was the actual leader of the Animorphs.
  • Ax and Cassie hear about a blonde girl who fought Controllers with her bare hands, and an "Andalite bandit" in raptor morph who was captured by Yeerks, and immediately assume they were Rachel and Tobias. In reality, they were Loren and Jake. A few chapters later, when Visser Three realises there's a morpher (Jake) on the Pool Ship, he immediately assumes it's Elfangor because he figured out the latter's death was faked and just kidnapped his wife.
• Expendable Alternate Universe: Discussed. Chapter 53 begins with a flashback where Cassie asks Jake why he wants to go back to the original timeline and leave the splinter universe to die. Jake responds that it's the only way to make the splinter universe stable again, and that he gave the morphing cube to James.
• Expospeak Gag: Mertil calls a kitchen sink "the water receptacle in the food preparation space."
• Faking the Dead: Tobias helps Ax fake his death by cutting some of his limbs off and leaving them next to his Space Fighter so Visser Three won't be suspicious; the severed limbs will still remain when Ax heals himself by morphing.
• Fee Fi Faux Pas: Tom mentions that Visser Three forced Feriss 512 to learn Andalite body language. When Tom meets the other Andalites, he tries to bow at them in a way that looks deferential, but Elfangor tells him that it's three hundred years out of date.
• Fun T-Shirt: Tobias has to wear an oversized T-shirt that says "I'M WITH STUPID" after he accidentally wrecks his morphing outfit.
• Getting Smilies Painted on Your Soul: Played for Drama. After delving deep into Tom's memories, Temrash 114 sets off his pleasure receptors as a "reward" for not resisting, which only makes Tom feel worse. Later, Visser Three does the same to Alloran when they're "reunited" in the splinter universe.
• Glamour Failure: Tobias suspects that a man is an Andalite in morph because of the way he walks.
• Good Is Not Nice: One of the Chee expresses full agreement when asked to create a miniature Yeerk pool to contain any potential time-travelling Yeerks, observing that just because she's programmed for pacifism doesn't mean that she has to be nice to slavers.
• Groin Attack: Loren kicks one of the Yeerk facility's guards in the crotch.
• "Hell, Yes!" Moment: In chapter 6, Temrash 114 tries to lure Jake into the Sharing despite Tom's constant pleas... But it turns out the other Animorphs are waiting in the house to capture them, much to Tom's delight.
• Helpless Observer Protagonist:
  • Chapter 6 is told from the perspective of Tom, who's used to being helpless as Temrash 114 mercilessly tortures him. Fortunately, he gets better at the end.
  • Chapter 33 ends with another Controller's point of view: Alloran. After he dies of old age in the original timeline, the Drode brings him to the splinter universe, where he's promptly re-infested by Visser Three.
• Hive Mind: The second time Tom morphs an ant, he's alone and feels like he's missing extensions of himself.
• Hold Your Hippogriffs: Andalites have a lot of idioms related to guide trees, and Menderash describes Marco as a "^{rock under my hoof} thorn in my side" at one point.
• Hollywood Hacking: Discussed. Tom muses that real hacking is much slower than movies would have you believe.
• Humanity Ensues: Aftran is briefly sent to the splinter universe in a human form so she can talk to Cassie.
• Humans Through Alien Eyes: Gafinilan and Mertil haven't spent as much time among humans as Ax or Elfangor, so they're unfamiliar with mundane objects such as beds.
• I Cannot Self-Terminate: Tom has this attitude at first. When he's sent back in time along with the Animorphs, his first thoughts are about how he'd rather be dead right now, and his first action after he regains control of his body is to hug Rachel in gratitude for killing him.
• I Just Want to Have Friends: This part of Tobias's personality is analysed, as he admits that he doesn't feel Jake and Cassie in particular are actually his friends outside of Animorph-related duties and he was afraid to go to the Andalite homeworld in case he was just rejected there again.
• Ignorant of Their Own Ignorance: Apparently, even after the Yeerks learned the truth about the Animorphs in the future, they believed that the Animorphs' first few missions were carried out by real Andalites who died of Kandrona radiation poisoning when they destroyed Earth's original Kandrona.
• I'm Having Soul Pains: Temrash punishes Tom by setting off his pain receptors.
• Impersonation Gambit: When Marco contacts Samilin, a known spy for the Yeerks, he pretends to be a Controller.
• Ineffectual Death Threat: Basically applies when Controllers capture Jake in falcon morph; they put him in a suitcase that would be too small for a demorphed Andalite, but is concealed enough for Jake to safely morph back into his true form, open the suitcase, and then escape as a fly without anyone seeing him.
• Interspecies Romance: As in canon, Loren and Rachel don't care what form Elfangor are Tobias are in, Loren explicitly calling Elfangor's Andalite form "even hotter" and Rachel having no problem embracing Tobias when he assumes an Andalite form.
• Involuntary Shapeshifting: Gafinilan is so surprised to see a guide tree on Earth that he demorphs without thinking about it.
• It's All My Fault: Menderash blames himself for getting everyone sent back in time, because it was his idea to go searching for Ax.
• Jerkass Realization:
  • Cassie explains to the others that her experience with compromise in Washington has left her more willing to accept the need for it during an active war, assuring the others that she will accept it if they have to commit more brutal actions now that might end the war earlier.
  • Ax in particular has one for himself and the rest of the team, feeling more willing to acknowledge that the other Animorphs occasionally hurt him by insisting that he act more human without truly trying to explain things to him but that he didn't make it easier to bond with humans by isolating himself in his scoop.
• Kick the Dog: We only get sparse details of what happened to Tom while he was a controller, but it included constant Mind Rape, being forced to have sex with Visser Three, and he was chained up in a cage to himself in the Yeerk Pool towards the end. No wonder he wanted to die.
• Kill the Host Body:
  • As soon as Tom is freed, he thanks Jake and Rachel for doing this to him in the original timeline, relieving some of Jake's immense guilt.
  • Since Cassie killed Visser Three while he was in Alloran's morphed body, the Drode is able to bring the original timeline's Alloran to the splinter universe as well. Then the newly-transplanted Visser Three blows up a Nova ship, and Edriss-in-Eva along with it. Oops.
• Kind Restraints: The Animorphs knock Tom unconscious and tie him to a chair in the woods so they can kill his Yeerk.
• Let's Split Up, Gang!: After the Ellimist's visit, the group splits up. Ax and Tobias look for Elfangor, Jake and Cassie spy on the EGS tower, and Marco and Tom contact a spy for the Yeerks. Later, Tobias goes off to make out with Rachel, while Ax and Cassie go to The Gardens to get morphs.
• Let Us Never Speak of This Again: Tom says this after he uses queen ant pheromones to help Marco escape from the basement.
• Life Will Kill You: After spending over 30 Earth years involved in an interplanetary war (and being possessed by a Puppeteer Parasite for two-thirds of it), the original timeline's Alloran dies peacefully of old age, surrounded by his family.
• Literal-Minded: Gafinilan and Mertil are both unfamiliar with human terms. The former thinks that the "ladies" sign on a block of toilets is misleading because it may have one lady in it or none at all; and when Loren is disappointed that the neurobot mat can't cure her mental traumas and "save [her] some money on therapy", Mertil assures her that it doesn't run on money.
• Living Emotional Crutch: Tobias admits when talking to Ax that Rachel is basically the only reason he still wanted to consider himself human towards the end of the war, reinforcing his fear of rejection from his Andalite family because if they turned him down he would literally have nothing.
• Luke, You Are My Father: Subverted. When "Elfangor" lands, the first thing Tobias says to him is that he's his son... but the Andalite turns out to be Ax.
• Meaningful Rename: Tobias introduces himself to Temrash-in-Tom as "Tobias-Sirinial-Noorlin", proudly proclaiming himself to be Elfangor's son.
• Mercy Kill: Discussed. Tom was happy when Rachel killed him in the original timeline because at least he wouldn't be a slave anymore... and is immensely frustrated that he's alive again.
• Mind Rape: Various Yeerks, such as Temrash 114, Feriss 512, and Esplin 9466, enjoy tormenting their hosts by delving deep into their memories, setting off their pain and pleasure receptors, and condescendingly reminding them how hopeless their lives are.
• Mood Whiplash: Chapter 10 is mostly Ax reflecting on how he acted distant from humanity at first... and ends with a comment about how cinnamon buns are better than Earth grass.
• Multilayer Façade: Jake notes how weird it is that Charlton is a robot pretending to be a Puppeteer Parasite pretending to be his brother.
• My God, What Have I Done?: Essentially Cassie's reaction when she looks back on everything she did in the original war, concerned that she was so focused on being "moral" towards the end that she basically ruined the lives of the others.
• My Greatest Second Chance: Marco assumes that Jake is "over the moon" because he has a chance to save Rachel and Tom.
• Mythology Gag: Rachel notes that Tobias wore headphones on that fateful visit to the construction site, just like in the graphic novel.
• Named by the Adaptation: Tom's second Yeerk is called Feriss 512 here, Cassie's surname is Hanson, and Taylor's is Ingraham. On a more minor note, the tiger Jake acquired is revealed to be named Arthur, with all the Gardens' big cats named after figures from Arthurian myth.
• Narrative Profanity Filter: The Dapsen Lumber guard screams obscenities that Elfangor is fairly certain park rangers aren't supposed to know.
• Never Found the Body: Ax and Tobias go on a mission to rescue Elfangor, who took Ax's place on the Dome Ship... and it turns out that he detonated it so it wouldn't fall into Yeerk hands, leaving no body behind. Tobias is frustrated about the lack of closure, but it's revealed a few chapters later that Elfangor is still alive.
• Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: As it turns out, Yeerk technology retains the telepathic interface from when it was originally adapted from the Andalite software Seerow gave them; the Yeerks have never bothered to rewrite the code to remove such interfaces, allowing high-ranking Andalites such as Elfangor to access the interface with the proper command codes. More specifically, Edris 562- the former Visser One- created a backdoor to give herself complete control of the Blade Ship, but although she was unable to use it before she died, Eva witnessed it during Edris's fugue, allowing her to pass that information on to Marco, who subsequently uses it in the new timeline to give Ax permanent control of the ship.
• No-Holds-Barred Beatdown: Tom is so overcome by rage when he sees Feriss that he throws a rock at him and then bludgeons him with a Dracon beam until he's a bloody pulp.
• Oh, Crap!:
  • Tom is worried when he learns that Jake is missing, but the gravity of the situation really hits him when Marco calls him in the middle of the night without speaking in code.
  • Cassie freaks out when she accidentally kills Visser Three, because it means that Crayak can bring the original timeline's Visser Three into the splinter universe.
• Outliving One's Offspring: Cassie mentions that her parents outlived her in the original universe.
• Painless Death for a Price: The Animorphs kidnap Temrash-in-Tom and tie him up in the woods. Tobias offers Temrash the choice between a quick death and freedom, or a slow and painful one by kandrona starvation; Temrash chooses the former.
• Pardon My Klingon: Andalites use "rot" as an expletive, and Tobias considers calling Elfangor "a very nasty Taxxon epithet for shit" at one point.
• Parents Know Their Children: Elfangor instantly knows that Tobias is his son when he sees him for the first time.
• Passing the Torch: After Jake decides he'll return to the original universe, he visits James in the middle of the night and gives him the morphing cube along with a list of instructions.
• Plagued by Nightmares: Jake mentions that he has a recurring nightmare where Tom talks to him while dying gruesomely.
• Psychological Projection: At one point Visser Three challenges Elfangor to come out and take credit for the lives he’s ended, the Visser noting that Elfangor has “never been one to shy away from gloating about your brutality”, when it’s safe to say that the Visser has a much greater bodycount and is far more proud of his kills than Elfangor ever was.
• Reality Is Out to Lunch: After Visser Three kills Visser One, who wasn't supposed to die, reality gets so screwed up that people and things phase through each other and fall apart for a few seconds.
• Remembered I Could Fly: After they're captured by Mertil, Marco asks Tom why he didn't morph and stop him. Tom responds that he's not used to morphing of his own volition. Later, Marco tries to morph cockroach... only to realise that he hasn't acquired one yet in this timeline.
• Right for the Wrong Reasons: When Tobias introduces himself as Elfangor's son, Tom and Temrash assume that Tobias's obvious discomfort in human form, such as often turning his head to look at Tom in different ways, is the sign of an Andalite unused to a human morph, as opposed to Tobias's long time as a hawk leaving him still unused to human body language.
• Roaring Rampage of Revenge: Jake flies in on Rachel when she's in elephant morph, wrecking a group of Controllers' car because one of them shot Jordan.
• Screw This, I'm Out of Here!: While Marco and Tobias won't abandon the war, they each make it clear that they have no interest in maintaining their current human lives, Tobias planning to stay with Ax once Ax has his new residence established and Marco intending to work with the Chee to set himself up elsewhere so he doesn't have to "repeat" high school.
• Secret Test of Character: Gafinilan basically gives Loren one when he gives her a pen and claims that it is a device intended to literally burn a Yeerk out of the Controller's brain with no harm to the host; it literally does nothing, but the ease with which she tried to use the alleged device on herself confirmed that she wasn't a host.
• Shapeshifter Mashup: Cassie is so terrified by the Yeerks burning her house down with her parents in it that her wolf morph turns into a wolf/dragonfly hybrid.
• Shout-Out: When Marco starts hacking the Blade Ship computers (after Elfangor has created a suitable interface), he jokingly proclaims "Just call me Jonny Lee Miller!" (Hackers), but Tobias notes that he should settle for being "Nedry" (Jurassic Park).
• Shout-Out Theme Naming: All the big cats at The Gardens are named after characters from Arthurian legend.
• Shell-Shocked Veteran: When Tom hugs Rachel, Jake goes into hypervigilance mode and reflexively reacts as if she's being attacked.
• Sir Swears-a-Lot: Tom spends most of his narration in chapter 6 swearing at Temrash.
• Sixth Ranger: The Animorphs free Tom as soon as possible so his suffering won't weigh on Jake's mind. It turns out that he was sent back in time as well, and his inside knowledge on Yeerks is a valuable asset, so Jake decides to re-give him the morphing power.
• Sleeping with the Boss: Tom implies that Feriss 512's relationship with Visser Three was sexual. Since neither he nor Alloran consented to it, he understandably doesn't like to talk about it.
• Spared by the Adaptation: Ax is able to save Elfangor's life by tricking his brother into morphing each other so that Elfangor will be stuck in the Dome underwater, Tobias subsequently helping Ax fake his death so that they can escape the crashed fighter.
• Speech Impediment: Tom's speech is slurred at first after he's freed from his Yeerk.
• Suspiciously Specific Denial: Marco insists that he didn't shriek when Fievel the dog licked his hand.
• Switching P.O.V.: Each chapter told from the perspective of a different character. At first, it seems like it'll go through the Animorphs in the same order as the books, but then Tom is introduced in chapter 6 and several supporting characters get to narrate from then on.
• Temporal Sickness: The time-displaced Animorphs keep throwing up on the first few days. Turns out it was food from the original universe that was still in their systems.
• Terms of Endangerment: Tom has a particularly visceral reaction to Temrash calling him a "good boy".
• That Was Not a Dream: Jake briefly wonders if the entire events of the series were an anxiety-dream caused by his stress about basketball tryouts, until he realises that he remembers everything too clearly.
• This Cannot Be!: As soon as Tom is sent back in time, Temrash 114 learns all the Animorphs' secrets from Tom's memories and is confident he'll be able to expose them and infest their leader... only to be blindsided when it turns out the Animorphs were waiting in the house to capture them.
• Thought They Knew Already: When Mertil and Gafinilan ask Ax what happened to them in the original timeline, Ax says that Gafinilan died of Soola's disease. This shocks Mertil, because Gafinilan had explained away his symptoms as "fatigue".
• Too Broken to Break: Tom spent so long being tortured by Yeerks that he's learned to endure it, and he's able to keep his cool when Mertil tries to kill Marco because he's met all kinds of aliens who've tried to kill him.
• Totally Radical: Played for Laughs when Elfangor steals a car. He leaves a note for the owner filled with 80s slang.
• Trauma Button: Tom freezes and starts shaking uncontrollably when he sees Visser Three.
• Troubled Fetal Position: Tom has a panic attack when he sees Visser Three while on the Pool Ship, and then almost loses himself when he morphs an ant. He's curled up in fetal position after Charlton rescues him.
• Two Lines, No Waiting: After the Animorphs split up, the various point-of-view characters have their own subplots that eventually converge with each other.
• Two of Your Earth Minutes: Mertil explains that each planet has its own unit of time called "hours"; one Andalite hour equals 47 Earth minutes.
• Unable to Cry: Jake recalls feeling too hollow to cry at Tom's funeral in the original timeline.
• The Unmasqued World: After the incident on the Pool Ship, Elfangor and Menderash intercept a message from the UN welcoming aliens to Earth.
• We Need a Distraction:
  • Marco distracts the Controller guarding the Dapsen Lumber Company by being really annoying so Ax can sneak into the cabin as a squirrel.
  • When Visser Three threatens to fire on the Pool Ship with the Animorphs on it, Elfangor steals a Bug Fighter and flies it around the Blade Ship so he'll be fired at instead.
• Wham Episode:
  • Chapter 6 reveals that Tom was sent back along with the Animorphs.
  • In chapter 32, Cassie accidentally kills Visser Three, and she realises that Loren is the reason why the splinter universe was created.
• You Can't Go Home Again: Elfangor told himself throughout the trip to Earth that he was only there to protect the humans and had no intention of trying to visit Loren and his son. Even after he is trapped on Earth, he just creates a basic human morph rather than trying to recreate Alan Fangor, and only starts trying to look for Loren on relative impulse.
• You Killed My Father: Tobias mockingly informs the Animorphs' first Yeerk captive that he is Elfangor's son to make it clear that he will take great pleasure in watching the Yeerks die.
• Your Normal Is Our Taboo: Mertil is shocked when Loren nonchalantly reveals that she knew Alloran before he was infested, as Alloran's name has become a curse for the Andalite fleet.
• Young and in Charge: The original timeline's Edriss is placed into Taylor's brain, and she still has the rank of Visser One, so the Yeerk invasion is being co-led by a teenage girl.
