The screen said only a few words, though it was all they needed to know:
Ehren: Failed Irken Invader drop-out. Anti-Irken Empire. Tall. Nearly twenty human years old.
Zim: Failure Irken Invader. Loyal to the Tallest. Still on Earth. Taller than expected. Nearly twenty human years old.
"I'm guessing that's important?" The Purple Tallest asked.
"Very important, actually." The Red Tallest said. "Killing two very annoying birds with one stone is a good idea."
"Do it, then." Purple said, tossing a nacho into his mouth. "I'm surprised Zim isn't dead yet."
Red shrugged, pressing the big red button he had installed just for this moment. "Luck, maybe?"

The car must've been going fifty miles an hour down the road, swerving left and right randomly. Inside the car, the human in dress shirt, tie, and pants was screaming, smashing against the walls as the green-skinned man drove the car.
Yep. Zim was trying to get his driver's license.
"Human! Give me the license of driving!" Zim screeched, making the car do a donut, then slamming on the gas again.
"Stop the car and I'll do whatever you want! Just don't kill me!" The instructor screamed, throwing up in the back seat. Zim literally kicked the brake, flinging the instructor through the front windshield.
"Thank you, Earth worm instructor." Zim smiled.

Ehran woke up to the sound of an erratic beeping, rubbing his eyes.
"Master, the alarm is going off." Nora said. Nora was his SIR bot...or, rather, a girl version of it. He'd found a mostly-destroyed SIR bot and put Her personality in it after...Ehren shivered, but got back to business quickly. He'd get his revenge...eventually.
"Which alarm, Nora?" Ehran asked, sitting up and looking at the screen.
"The distress beacon, Ehren." Nora said.
"What? There's others left?" Ehren asked.
"I doubt this is anything more than a poorly-thought trap." Nora said, then looked at Ehren's excited facial expression. "I will chart a course for Earth, then. Don't get your hopes up, though. I don't want you getting hurt again."
"It'll be okay, Nora." Ehren said, smiling at the little black SIR bot with green white eyes. Those had been Nora's old favorite colors, and Ehren paid top dollar to get the robot looking like that. "G'night, Nora."
"Good night, Ehren." Nora said, turning back to the controls.

Dib remembered when he used to try to stop Zim from conquering Earth, then remembered they day he quit. He was just thinking of how he could stop Zim and realized: the alien could barely tie his shoes! How is he going to take over the Earth? Dib now only bullied Zim in Hih Skool.
'Ah well. It's not like any more Aliens are coming to Earth.' Dib thought, walking through the halls.

Gaz watched her stupid brother walk through the hallway, big head probably full of ideas about how to torture Zim. Zim didn't really deserve it, Gaz believed (not that Gaz would tell anyone; it was harder to become popular when this was your first year at Hih Skool.) Gaz was wearing tight black jeans, boots, and a sleeveless black shirt. It was near summer, and the heat was making itself known. She was hoping something would happen, like some of the stuff that happened when she was a kid.
'Screw it.' Gaz thought. 'That won't happen again. Who am I kidding?'
