EEK~!~! I just finished this, the first ever chapter of my invader Zim fan fiction and I am so excited to get this up, though I can't think of a very good title for it soooo, yeah I'm open to suggestions.
Disclaimer, Invader Zim is not mine, if it was it wouldn't have gotten canceled LMAO.
Enjoy, and no flames please.
He couldn't believe it, his mission, his SIR unit, him being an invader. It was all a lie. His whole life was just a sick joke to his leaders. The Tallest and all of irk saw him as nothing but the butt of a joke ready to be made. He meant nothing to his own people. The worst part was that the lie was told to him mostly by himself. They didn't actually tell him these things; they just did it to get him off their backs. He told this lie to himself, and they just went along with it to shut him up and get a few laughs out of it.
It would be an understatement to say that if he died they wouldn't even notice. If he died, they would, not only celebrate it, they'd make it a universal holiday. The day that defect finally died, and he wasn't being hard on himself, because that's just what they did.
Zim's head hurt so much, but even more so, his chest cavity hurt, he felt sick to his stomach. As he reminded himself solemnly that he had to stay on earth and would never again see his home or the one who waited for him there. Then again, she may have known. She may have been mocking him behind his back, she's probably mated to another irk by now anyway…
Happy Zim is dead day, Zim thought to himself bitterly. It had been a year since he cut off contact from Irk and the Tallest. He cut off the signals in his pack, so now, as far as the Empire was concerned, he was officially dead and gone.
All he wondered now was, now that he was gone, who was their new victim of tormenting doom?
On The Massive.
"Ding dong, the defect is gone." Screeched purple, doughnut pieces floating around him as they all celebrated the aforementioned defects death.
It being the one year anniversary of the day they got the oh so joyous news that the defect known as Zim had finally been terminated, they intended to make it one hell of a party.
They didn't care how or why, all they cared about was how they never had to deal with that annoying Zim and his surprisingly more annoying Sir unit ever again!
"If I'd've known he'd die because of it, I would a suggested we told him sooner, would have saved us a whole chunk of our sanity!" Red yelled over the pumping music.
Purple chuckled, "Yeah and whole lot of my lunch!" Referring to when he threw up because Zim's brain was being sucked out by a huge creature in backseat drivers from beyond the stars.
Red laughed loudly "Yeah, that too!"
They laughed on and on, food floating all around them, eating gluttonously.
A glum Irken came up to them, handing them their new trays of snacks and a couple bags of popcorn. She turned and began to shuffle away back to her duties.
"Hey!" Purple called to their food server. "What's with the long face?" He asked confused.
"Yeah, why aren't you celebrating, come on, its Zim's dead day!" Red called to her.
Despite the fact that they were her leaders and she would be scolded by them and herself later the Green eyed Irken snapped towards them glaring daggers at her Tallest.
"Because, not everyone wanted him dead!" She told them darkly, and then took off before getting a response.
"You know what Red?"
"What?"
"She's as short as Zim… actually, maybe even shorter"
"Hmm, oh never noticed that before, didn't even think that was possible, oh well." They turned their attention back to the piled food and, consuming their food greedily, signaled for the music to be pumped up higher.
As she left she overheard what they said about her being shorter than Zim.
"Tch, I'll show you short." She then rushed off to the voot holding area, she scanned through the voots until she came to her specialized blue voot. More slender than the average voot, it could travel at much greater speeds, at a cost of offense and defense.
She activated her older Sir unit Mir, and they took off heading towards their home on irk.
After she left the purple tallest turned to his red counterpart.
"Hey, Red?"
"Yeah purple?"
"What do you think that service irk meant by 'Not everyone wanted him dead'?"
"Just ignore her, the only ones who'll Miss Zim are defects, and she's obviously a defect."
"Oh," Tallest Purple thought for a moment, "Then why don't we send those defects to earth too?" He asked.
"You know what, that's probably the smartest thing you've ever said in your entire life Purple, let's do it!" Then they commenced their send all defects to earth plan with a wave of a doughnut crumb encrusted hand.
She arrived at her home on Irk and went to her bathing quarters, taking out her eye contact, revealing that her left eye was actually a pitch black. The sign of blindness in Irks, she looked intensely at her eye, remembering the lab accident that had caused it.
AHHH! She ran back into the lab after hearing the scream, she remembered that she and Zim had been arguing about something, she couldn't remember what. She had just walked out; fuming at something Zim had said when she heard him scream bloody murder, something about how it burns.
"Zim!" She called through the fire that had spread much too fast, there had been an explosion of some sort the instant she walked back through the door. She found him lying on top of one of their many worktables. She rushed to him, his antennae her bent and wrecked, his pack was critical.
"Dammit Zim..." She muttered under her breath as she activated her spider legs. She picked him up gingerly and began taking him out the flaming room when she yelled at the computer.
"Computer, put out these flames this instant!"
"Yes ma'am." Echoed a female sounding program, then the flames were being doused with flame disposing devices in a few seconds the flames were gone.
The flames burned though vital equipment and the whole lab became a hazard. She put her attention on Zim for just a moment to make sure if he was alright, and it caused her to trip over debris. Her spider legs became tangle as she fell. Her free hand hit a beaker, whose contents splashed in her eye which instantly became red and puffy around the edges.
She dropped Zim and Writhed and screamed, the pain causing her to roll and bang her head, she caused enough noise to wake Zim. He stood, holding his head. When he finally gathered his wits, what he saw made him cringe, and even gasp.
Her eye burnt and bled, she didn't even notice Zim pick her up and get her out of the lab, She wasn't aware of anything but the pain in her eye until treatment in the hospital. They weren't able to save her eye, and Zim's hearing was now impaired, they could have fixed his antennae, but the Tallests said that he's a defect, and that he didn't matter...
She lifter her hand to her eye sometime in remembering the incident.
"Time to show them what a defect is made of." She whispered, though there was power within her quiet words.
She slammed into her lab, "Computer!" She called. "Take me to the experimental serum."
"Right away ma'am."
She was transported in a pick bubble like machine with an irken symbol in a darker shade of pink glowing above her head.
"Mir, get the syringes, it's time to test my concoction..."
"Yes..." Mir turned to get the said tools. "Are you sure you want to do this master?" She asks uncertain.
"I've never been so sure about anything ... except one." She said the last part to herself.
"Yes... master." Mir said with faked enthusiasm.
She brought her master any and all tools she asked for. Mir set up the chair that was much taller than her master. She climbed in and it automatically strapped her in, connecting tubes to her pack, a panel opened at the base of the chair, revealing where a needle could be set.
"Inject me ..." She told Mir calmly.
"Yes..." She stuck the first syringe in the slot at the base of the chair. A bright green liquid, which had bubbles of neon pink that acted like a lava lamp, flashed through tubes that connected into the female irkens pack.
As the liquid substance entered into pack and into her system, she dug her claws into the seat at the pain. She tried to bear through it, this pain isn't nearly as bad as when I lost my eye-sight, she told herself, which made the pain slightly fade.
She still gasped at the end, when a sudden surge of pain shot across her frame. Then the pain was gone, like it had never even been there in the first place.
At first she thought if hadn't worked, but when the seat released her and she jumped down from it, her feet touched down sooner than she had anticipated. She looked down at her, now taller, body.
"It... it worked," She couldn't believe what had happened, "It worked... it worked!" she started to jump around her shouts of excitement escalating with each one said; she picked up the now much shorter Mir and danced merrily. "I-I'm tall~!" She called to the ceiling.
That's when her nearby communicator switched on, an announcement from the tallest to all of irk and planets held in irken rule.
"Merry Zim is dead day," Tallest Red called to the crowd, she growled "Now we know how excited you all are about that defect being gone finally." Red continued.
"And not a moment too soon." Purple added.
"Yes, well, as an anniversary celebration, tallest Purple here," Red gestured to his counterpart who was a giddy school girl eating donuts. "Came up with a pretty good idea on how to celebrate our first Zim is dead day, we're going to send all the defects to earth."
The newly taller female irkens eyes widened in shock, but she kept listening.
"Then, after we get them all there, in two years, when we finish operation impending doom two." Purple continued.
"We're gonna blow up earth with all the defects on it!" Red called, and then signaled to his lasers guy, who made a hologram of earth above the crowds' heads, then it blew up epically with lasers shooting out of it, they cheered.
"Again, told you they like lasers." Red sneered at purple. Who turned saying. "Tch, whatever."
"Lasers." Red murmured, and his laser guy heard him and shot a laser in Purples eye, causing him to flail and yell from pain landing on his face. Red snickered at him.
"HAHAHA that was sooo funny." Purple said, obviously not meaning it.
Before the announcement finished she made the computer turn off her communicator, she fell back into the nearest chair, unable to stand for much longer after hearing such an outrageous declaration.
"I have to stop them." She blinked in surprise at her own declaration to stop her Tallest, but they were her leaders, her-her... Her what? Her… Her tyrants, her persecutors, and the, the very reason her mate was dead! She- she has to stop them... for Zim for the other defects, for all of irk, for everyone held under their tyrannous rules, from Vort and their comfortable couch to Blorch, home of the slaughtering rat people. They must all be freed…
That serum must have triggered something in my pack, I never would have thought against the tallest so determinedly. She concluded, "Yes, I am now defiantly against my tallest… and I like it." She smirks speaking mostly to herself.
Time to start planning for a counter on the tallest, first things first, I need a base, and plenty of soldiers, and, using my serum, we'll have the advantage of height…
The defects banished to earth will feel abandoned and scare, they'll begin to wonder if they'll like Zim did in a panic…They'll need a leader to guide them and show them they can fight back and take back their home from their so-called leaders.
Leaders are meant to protect and guide, not banish and look at their own people like their own personal foot rests.
I can be their leader and since I'm taller now, they'll listen to me and believe in me,
"Mir!" She called, getting the attention of said sir unit, "I need you to set my storage cruiser up for long travel, and get all the serum into the cube storage device." She ordered.
"Also set all my voots into docking bay of the cruiser, we'll need them; and we'll need to have plenty of weapons and other supplies too."
"Yes ma'am." She saluted with new found enthusiasm, and then turned back to her master before setting off on her newest orders, slightly curious. "What is our destination ma'am?" Mir asked.
"Earth." She answered a flame of determination burning in her good eye.
I hope you all liked it, sometimes I was up at 1:00 in the morning typing this story because the words were just flowing so well from my finger tips I just couldn't stop. XD
