The airport. Not only a place where one can catch their plane and pick up guests, it is a great way to travel if you're a fly. Just stay away from the steak sauce.

Tia smiled falsly at the guard as she haded him her pass. She was here to pick up her brother, who would be arriving soon.
She was nervous, having not seen her brother in four months. Not to mention that she was already taking care of one unexpected occupent, Norpo.
"Relax, Tia. Everything will be fine," her Yeerk said comfortingly. He slowed down her breathing as they passed through the security check point, reminding himself that this was not like the Yeerk Pool.
{At least they don't look too much like BioFilters,} Tia muttered to him. She felt her head nod in silent agreement. She headed towards the terminal Dessan would be arriving at.

Dessan, on the other hand, wasn't nervous about seeing his sister again at all. It was the best news he'd heard all four months they'd been appart, after all, his mother had died during that time. But now he was excited rather than sad, and had bounced in his seat the whole flight, staring out the window, trying to see if he could see Tia from there, or maybe the new house he'd be living at. There had been one good thing, though, about that d**ned Indian Reservation. Aside from getting a tan. He'd been able to get a few good morphs, but still, they wouldn't fit in around this city very much. He hoped he could find something to use while he was here and undercover. When he entered the terminal, he smiled, looking around with his one HUGE suitcase, and his guitar case. It had, game consol, games, clothes, amp, and a few other things, all in it. Next, though, he gasped, when he spotted the girl that he knew without a doubt was his sister. Tia! He sped of towards her, and almost ran into her when he stopped. "HI!" the boy exclaimed, standing there in his loose pants, tight shirt, two huge cases, and messy hair. He hadn't changed aside from getting taller, and tanner.

Tia's mouth streached into a huge grin at seeing her little wo--brother again. "Hey, Worm," she commented, enveloping him in a hug. She mussed his hair, stepping back and brushing out a brown/pink strand that fell in front of her face. She fought back tears, with the help of Norpo.
"How have you been?" she asked, wiping up a few tears. She was shocked at how tall he had gotten. She still hadn't released him.
{He's turning blue, Tia.} He calmly took control of her arms, loosening his host's grip on the boy. He felt a wave of sadness wash over her as she stepped back, looking him up and down. The human felt she had missed so much of her brother's life.
"You've grown since I last saw you."

Indar exited the Taco Bell, a bag bulging with delicious chalupas and burritos and tacos. All which he, in human-morph, intended to eat. His hair was brown, and rather long. He had a small goatee. His human-morph was attractive by human-standards, but not by Andalite-standards.
{You're worse than a Taxxon,} Gerlan said, disgusted, but, he too was feeling the side-effects of the hungry human-morph, and was excited about eating some tacos.
Indar sat down at a seat in one of the terminals. He had just gotten back from the Yeerk pool; he had his own Kandrona, but frequented the pool in his stolen human-, Hork-Bajir-, Gedd- and Perit Hur-morphs often. He had to; he was a rebel, though he seemed to usually work alone.
Whilst sipping a Baja Mountain Dew, he stared as a boy came running towards a girl. He grinned as she embraced him. Humans were so cute.
On further inspection, she looked familiar...hadn't he seen her around the pool?

Dessan grinned, though as he was hugged, he dropped his bags and began the gasping-for-air part of their reunion. When he was finally released a bit, he took in a huge breath and then smiled again, hugging her back. "I've only grown what, like... Three inches?" It was still alot though, for four months, but to him it didn't really matter. "At least you don't look so much like a nerd anymore," he said, frowning. She'd always gotten straight As, but she didn't look so much like a schoolgirl anymore, and he wondered why. Her reportcard was probably horrible. "Anyway, you get to buy me lunch. All they had on the plane was a bunch of peanuts." He frowned, for he didn't like peanuts. The boy seemed to ignore her crying as he picked up his bags and headed on a bee-line straight for the Taco Bell. He was broke, but he was sure his sister wasn't.

"Remind me again why I'm paying," Tia muttered.
"Oh, right," Norpo replied aloud as if she was answering her own question, "I'm the mature and responsible adult here; in other words, I have money."
As she started walking towards the Taco Bell, she caught a glimpse of someone out of the corner of her eye. She turned to fully look at him, still walking and bumped into her brother. "Sorry," she mumbled, and turned to look at the menu.
Her mind, however, was not on food. Norpo's was. "One Taco Salad, no meat," he told the person at the register. "And whatever he wants."

Dessan "oufed" as he was ran in to, and calmly told her to watch where her big fat butt was going. Then, he looked up after she ordered, looking over the menu. Dessan cracked his knuckles, and fired off his order at lightning speed. "Four crunchy tacos, three nachos, and a large soda," he said, reciting his usual order at this certain fast food restraunt. Jeez, why isn't this kid fat? the man behind the register thought, and the boy frowned. "Did you just call me fat?" he asked, and the man looked at him oddly, shaking his head. "Okay then. That's my order, now you guys are a FAST food place, so get goin'!" With that he turned and walked off to his table, the only empty one here, rather close to Indar's own table. He sat and waited now for his huge order.

Indar opened one of his bags, and, grabbing a burrito from the bag, bit into the food, wrapper and all. He swallowed it, the paper feeling odd in his mouth, but tasteful to his human-morph. "This is most tasteful!" he shouted. He stared at the burrito, then stuffed more of it into his mouth. "Yummmmmmmmmmy!!!"

Tia rubbed her temples as the guy gave her her total. She pulled out the money, debating killing her brother. At least she wouldn't have to pay his insurance. Plus, jail was suppose to be cozy this time of year.
"Worm, you need to cut down on the--" she paused, looking over at the person yelling: "This is most tasteful!" and "Yummmmmmmmmmy!!!" as he stuffed burittos, wrapper and all, into his mouth.
"Andalite," Norpo hissed, before realizing it had even come out. It didn't have the tone most Yeerks used when talking about the alien, more of a "Oh my, it's an Andalite". However, it was loud enough that his host's brother could have heard it, along with the possible Andalite a few seats over.
He cleared his throat, calmly. "Um, buddy. You might want to take the wrapper off."

Dessan had just begun on his nachos, when that stupid and annoying guy next to him yelled, causing him to miss and the nacho to break on his face, leaving cheese there. He wiped it off with a finger and ate it anyway, but looked over to the purpetrator that had ruined a perfectly good nacho. "Hey, dude, you might want to cut that out. Us humans are trying to eat here!" He called anyone that he thought weird a non-human, but little did he know that the guy he'd said that too really wasn't a human. Of course, he didn't know.

"But it's better-tasting without the wrapper," Indar protested, staring into the burrito, and unwrapping it, then stuffing it into his mouth, whole. Gerlan seemed amused by this, and it tasted good. He loved food, and his human-morph. "Humans?" he asked Dessan. "What are you implying?"

"Nothing," Tia commented brightly, covering her brother's mouth. She had no idea what he was talking about, but something in her gut told her to just keep him quiet. {The Yeerk Pool! That's where I've seen that human!}
{The Yeerk Pool?} He flipped through her memories quickly, causing her eyes to glaze slightly and her hand to slip from her brother's mouth. {Ah, I see.}

"Yea, you heard me, I sai-" the rest was muffled when Tia's hand cupped his mouth, and he began pulling at her arm. One thing was true, she got stronger, which wasn't going to help when he started getting headlocked. When she finally let go, he faked gasping in air. "You could've killed me!" He over exaggerated, sure, but soon after that, he was right back to pigging out on his tacos and his nachos and intergecting an occasional sip of soda.

Indar moved on to his nachos. He began to scarf them down, spilling cheese sauce to the floor. He crunched, his mouth full of nachos.
And he had two more bags of goodies. One of his three bag was on his lap, filled to the brim with fast-food goodness. He had chalupas..........lots of them. He turned to the brother and sister (for that's obviously what they were), and smiled. "I just like to eat." He didn't look it. His human form was slender, and extremely handsome.
