Sometimes I wonder how the heck I ended up leader of this group.. about half our members joined after seeing me screw up. I, myself, joined not becacuse of anyone's screw up, which is pretty rare in TMS. One night Tom, Nick, and I were having a sleepover when suddenly I am knocking out of a dozing off state by an explosion in the backyard. Long story short, I find a blue box, an Andalite in the woods, a Hork-Bajir chasing me, and myself covered in his blood by morning. That's nice and peachy. Since then we've been through countless battles, and major losses, including my cousin Jack, who was a controller since before we started fighting until I freed him one night. You'd think counstant fighting with either the Yeerks or Tom and Matt's insanity would keep me busy.. but in all this Reed and I.. uh.. got into a relationship. This fact being complicated by finding out she's her own species not long after, but we manage. Reed helps me support myself, and keep somewhat clear about what's going on, and ahead of the Yeerks, Tom, and sometimes even homework.
