Episode: The Nightmare Begins



(Silef, Gir2, and me enter Nickelodeon Studios)

Security Guard: What are you doing here?

Me: I have an FW for Invader Zim.

Security Guard: A pass? You have a Frequent Watcher pass? The show hasn't
even begun yet!

Silef: Look, bozo, I'm the stars sister! Now let me through! *Starts pushing
him*

Me: I've dedicated myself to the show already. Now are you going to take us
in or not?

Security Guard: Oh, all right. Come with me. *Leads us to the studio*

Gir2: Yeehahahahee!

(We enter the studio for Invader Zim)

Silef: (Starts trashing the room) Where are Red and Purple? I'm gonna knock
them unconscious for sending me down here!

Me: Hey, calm down. It's better than Blortch.

Gir2: Cupcake! *Runs to the refreshment table*

Zim: *Jumps up* The food is for cast members only!

Professor Membrane: Quiet! I'm rehearsing!

Director: I'll be right back, Membrane! Our guests are here! *Walks over to
the three of us* Hello! What episodes are you being permitted to watch?

Me: This one, Attack of the Saucer Morons, Parent Teacher Night, The Walk of
Doom, The Wettening, Bad, Bad Rubber Piggy, and Invasion of the Idiot Dog
Brain.

Director: Interesting choices. We're going to start filming soon. You're
welcome to the refreshment table.

Silef: In your face, Zim! In your face!

Gir2: Yay! *Starts stuffing his face*

Zim: *Growls*

Silef: Oh, I'm not here for the refreshments, anyway. I wanna see Dib! *Takes
off through the halls*

Me: Wait! *Runs after her*

Tallest Purple: There's something you don't see everyday. She should be
rushing to see me!

Tallest Red: Don't you mean me? I am the Tallest!

Tallest Purple: Excuse me? If we weren't exactly the same height, we wouldn't
both be Tallest!

Tallest Red: Lasers!

Tallest Purple: We're not even filming yet.

Tallest Red: I know how we can settle this! Dib! Measure us!

Dib: *Walks in with a ruler*

Tallest Purple: *Looks at his height* This is very sad...

Dib: *Turns around angrily and starts walking away*

Tallest Red and Purple: Wait!

(Two blurs rush by and stop in front of them)

Silef: You...

Tallest Red: Uh oh...

Tallest Purple: Maybe it...was a mistake tricking her into coming to Earth
permanently...

Silef: I'm gonna knock you senseless...

Gir2: Yay!

Me: Now Silef, don't do anything rash.

Director: *Comes up* We're ready to start filming now. Let's go!

Silef: Ooh, ooh! Can I be in the show? I want to be one of the main
characters!

(Tallest Red and Purple sneak out)

Director: Look, do you know how long it took to find an alien race that was
willing to be exposed?

Zim: *From the refreshment table* The rats from Blortch didn't mind!

Director: As I was saying, we already have a bunch of episodes written out.
We can't rewrite them all just because one little Irken wants to be in it!

Silef: Little? You makin' fun of my height?

Tallest Purple: *Runs back over* Well, you are one of the shortest Irkens in
the armada! *Snicker*

Silef: *Balls hand into a fist*

Tallest Purple: ...I'm going to go, now...

Director: We are going to start filming, now! Silef, you can be an extra.
There's a big crowd of Irkens in the beginning. Follow...Twee...

(Depressed Irken looks up)

Twee: Come with me.

Professor Membrane: I'm making toast! I finally got it right! Did you get
that?

Director: We're not even near that scene, Membrane. Not to mention the fact
we haven't even started filming yet.

Me: Have fun, Silef!

Silef: Yes! I'm an extra! *Looks back at Twee* Why are you so depressed?

Twee: The Tallest named me. I was extremely short, so they originally called
me TWI. It stood for "The Worst Irken". After an increase in height, they
renamed me Twee.

Silef: Rough...

Professor Membrane: I'm making shoes! Now look what you did! I had it right
earlier!

Me: Professor Membrane, chill!

Director: We're going to start filming! Places! Zim, start up your Voot
Runner.

Zim: *Pounds the buttons* Start!

Silef: *Cracks up*

Zim: Silef!

Silef: Oh, calm down! I changed the ignition cord so it connects to the blue
one on your right now.

Gir: *Runs around* Weeheehee!

Director: Gir, you're not in this scene.

Me: Aw, he's so cute!

Tallest Purple: *Coughs*

Tallest Red: Um...can we film now? We shall impend doom!

Gaz: *Looks up from GameSlave in the corner of the room* Shut up...

Tallest Purple: I didn't!

Silef: *Starts rolling around on the floor laughing like an idiot*

Tallest Red and Purple: Silef!

You're lucky I made it all.

Fine! Take it! Just don't hurt me!

Silef"* I'm not gonna say that!

Me: You won't? Say this! *Holds up a cue card with "I love Samantha" on it*

Silef: You stink!

Director: Well, I guess we can have a break, and you can do some interviews

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Interview: Zim

Me: This is so cool!

Silef: Ooh, wow. I get to interview my brother. How exiting.

Gir2: I miss tuna.

(Enter Zim's room)

Zim: Yes, yes, what do you want?

Me: We don't really want to interview. We just want to hang out with the
cast!

Silef: But he's my brother! I want excitement!

(Stink bomb goes off somewhere)

Silef: Sweet mother of pearl!

(Irken falls out of the closet)

Irken: Oh, that worked perfectly!

Zim: Meraiz?

Silef: Meraiz!

Me: Come on! It stinks in here!

Gir2: I like stink!

Me: You're not advanced. You're stupid.

Silef: Now things are getting interesting! Did you do that, Meraiz?

Meraiz: Duh! Boy, that gave me pleasure!

Zim: Get out of my room!

Meraiz: No!

Me: Hey! Things get interesting with Meraiz around! She stays!

Me: Wait!

Silef: Come back!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Hangout: Professor Membrane

Professor Membrane: Bwahahahaaa! Muaha! Nyahahahoo!

Gir2: AH!

Me: *Bug eyed* Can we go...?

Silef: You took the words right out of my mouth...

(Exit while Professor Membrane keeps laughing like an idiot)

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Hangout: Gaz

(Awkward silence)

(Gaz's GameSlave beeps)

Gaz: I get a GameSlave2 in a future episode, but they wont even give it to me
yet.

Silef: Why not? Why don't you just steal it?

Gaz: ...That's a good idea!

Me: Wait, Gaz! You're one of my favorite characters!

Gir2: I like GameSlaves...

Gaz: Silef, where the heck did you get that thing?

Silef: ...The Tallest...

Gaz: There's a lot I don't know about Irk, isn't there?

Silef: Well, you do shoot some of the scenes on Irk and Conventia.

Me: *Blinks* Really?

Silef: Oh my God, where have you been?

Me: ...In the Underworld!!!

Gir2: *Potato chip falls from his hand*

Gaz: *Pizza falls from her mouth* Can you like go?

Me: Heeheeheehee...

Silef: You are not leaving me alone with her...

Gir2: Madness! Me like!

Silef: Good. I'll stay with Gaz, and you can go with Sam.

Gaz: No, really, go.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Hangout: The Tallest

Silef: I could have stayed with Gaz. But no, I have to go see my Tallest!

Me: Come on, Silef. They're cool.

Silef: Not if you're a short Irken so they think you're going to kill them,
and send you on a permanent assignment to impend doom on Earth. Besides,
Purple likes you!

Me: u.u

Gir2: My creators!

Tallest Red: Oh, it's the garbage I put together.

Tallest Purple: Hey, Silef, aren't you forgetting something?

Silef: No, you are.

Tallest Red: Come on, you got your sandwich!

Silef: No, that was Zim! I was in Operation Impending Doom I, too! And I
helped put out those fires!!!

Tallest Purple: Oh well! Now. What. Are. You. For-get-ting?

Silef: *Grumbles* I am glad that I am not dead for threatening you back on
Irk, My Tallest. It was a good choice to send me to Earth, My Almighty
Tallest.

Me: ...That was pathetic.

Tallest Red: Don't say that! *Looks at Tallest Purple* Should I still tell?

Tallest Purple: Yes.

Silef: Well of course he says yes! ...Tell her...what?

Tallest Red: You should already know. All the Irkens anywhere do. But still,
we don't want you listening! Go somewhere, and take your Gir advance with
you.

Silef: *Under her breath* Sure. I am your slave. *Out loud* Of course, My
Tallest. You are always right. *Starts to walk out mumbling* They're such
morons...big old blowhards.

Gir2: They're ditzes!

Me: Holy crap! Do you even know what a ditz is?

Tallest Purple: Ditzes are girls!

Silef: You're point being?

Tallest Red: Gah...

Silef: Excuse me, My Almighty Tallest! *Slams the door behind her*

Tallest Purple: As we were saying, there's something we want to tell you.
How tall are you?

Me: Five feet.

Tallest Red: Nice, nice...well, whatever your name is...

Me: Sa...

Tallest Red: Not now! What the director doesn't know is that Operation
Impending Doom II is real! We only let them film us because we thought it
would be a good way of weakening the humans. Only Dib knows, and he tries to
stop us when we're not filming.

Me: Why are you telling me this?

Tallest Purple: You are dedicated to us. Besides, you're a pretty good
height. Keep this under your hat, and when we take over Earth, you and maybe
some of your friends won't be slaves.

Me: And Silef...knows?

Tallest Purple: All the Irkens know! Here's our home phone number. *Hands me
a piece of paper*

Me: *Takes it. The paper just has a bunch of Irken numbers* Right...

Tallest Red: Act more grateful! You're practically a double agent! By doing
this, you're...practically an Irken! Maybe you could live on Irk!

Me: You're getting a bit exited about this. I saw Irken writing in the first
scene...it looks hard...

Tallest Purple: And if she does, she could be a Tallest if she gets tall
enough!

Tallest Red: Of course, you'd come up with that idea! *Cracks up*

Tallest Purple: Not...funny!

Me: Wait, I don't think...wait, I could be a Tallest if I keep all this under
my hat, and move to Irk?

Tallest Red: Yeah, the air's breathable.

Me: *Smirks* I'll think about it...but, if I do go to Irk to live, Silef
would have to come with me.

(Tallest give each other worried looks)

Tallest Red: You'd make sure she behaves?

Me: Yes...

Tallest Red: No problem, then!

Tallest Purple: Oh, and one more thing you must...not...forget! If you move
to Irk, you have to act like an Irken! No human food...except for nachos and
curly-fries, and no human appliances except things you can't leave behind.

Me: Can I bring my dog?

Tallest Purple: *Looks worried* I...guess so...but...you'd have to be careful
with her.

Tallest Red: Other things you have to do- go to the Great Assigning, or any
other special event on Conventia or Irk, real Irken or no. Another thing,
learn to drive a Voot Runner.

Me: I'll be sixteen in four years...

Tallest Purple: Doesn't matter on Irk!

Me: Dude!

Tallest Red: Now the most important thing...you must call us "My Tallest."
Practice it. Lets hear you say it. "My Tallest. My Almighty Tallest."

Me: My Tallest! My Almighty Tallest! Happy?

Tallest Purple: *Grins* Very. Okay, you can go now. Get out!

Me: Jeez. That's not something I'd expect you to say!

Tallest Red: *Keels over* PPPBT! HAHAHAA! *calms down* *Takes me to the door*
Remember...they're filming The Wettening next week...give us your answer
then. *Closes the door*

Silef: What happened?

Me: *Nervously* No big D. Lets go see Gir.

Silef: PURPLE ASKED YOU TO MARRY HIM, DIDN'T HE?!

Me: You are one sick little Irken.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Hangout: Gir

Silef: Seriously, I'm scared.

Me: Not compared to what's next. We're seeing Ms. Bitters!

Silef: Whoa, not me!

Me: Come on, she'll kill you if you don't! You are one of her students; and
she will be appearing in a few more episodes.

Gir2: I want to see Gir!

Me: *Looks up* What would I want more? A GIR or a SIR?

Silef: What?

Me: Oh, nothing really.

Gir: Hiya!

Me: Aw, a GIR, definitely!

Silef: *Laughs coldly* At five feet tall they'd give you a SIR. You're really
not as far away from being as tall as them as you think. *Slaps her forehead* Oh no. If you end up as tall as them…Three Tallest? That would make headlines! "Human becomes third Tallest." Oh brother.

Me: You know?!

Silef: We all know! We were even told that if you ever visit Irk to treat you
like...an Irken! The Tallest admire you.

Me: Admire...me? *Smiles*

Silef: You're losing it...

Gir: Hey, you got any tuna?

Me: I don't want a SIR!

Gir2: Hush!

Gir: Do you have a mongoose dog?

Silef: *Cough* No...

Me: I don't think anyone you meet will.

Gir: Aawww...

Me: I wonder if we'll ever find out what the "G" stands for. *Thinks* Genius
Information Retrieval?

Silef: Oh, please.

Gir: *Burps*

Silef: Oh, I am so gone! *Grabs me by the arm, and shoves me out the door*

Me: *Grimly* Eager to see Ms. Bitters, eh?

Silef: *Stops dead* Oh no...

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Hangout: Ms. Bitters

Me: *Sits in a chair*

Ms. Bitters: Doom...doom...doom...

Gir2: I don't think I'm supposed to be scared right now...

Silef: Ms. Bitters is one of the only things that activates the part of his
behavior chips that are serious!

Ms. Bitters: Doom...doom...doom...

Me: I hope I'm not the only one who thinks this visit will be cut short...

Silef: No, I agree.

Gir2: I feel weak...

Ms. Bitters: Doom...doom...doom...

Me: Lets go...

(Creep away)

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Me: So that's what happened on set. I think my hangout with the Tallest was
the coolest!

Silef: -_- You...seriously mean that?

Gir2: Ha, ha!

Silef: The horror! *Throws him in a closet*

Me: o.o;; Yes, I do. Living on another planet...people always believed they
would do that.

Silef: But they didn't think the planet would be inhabited!

Me: So? I'd get to drive a Voot Runner...unless someone tampers with the
controls!

Silef: :-o I wouldn't!

Me: Yes you would! And I even got them into letting you back on Irk!

Silef: I can't believe that you...you what?

Me: You heard me! And guess what? If I decide not to go to Irk, you can't go
either!

Silef: No, no! It's a great idea! I'll teach you everything! Go! Being overly
polite to the Tallest isn't too bad! Yes! Yes! Go to Irk!

Me: I knew you'd see it my way.



* * *



So I guess I'll give the Tallest my answer next week. It could be fun. That
whole Being a Tallest thing is...intriguing. But no human food? I think
that's where I'd go crazy. I'll have to ask Zim what an Irken grapefruit
tastes like...

By the way, Silef said the reason I'll be so much taller so soon, is
because the cycle of how we grow on Earth, and how Irkens grow on Irk will
clash, and make me shoot up a bit. Cool, huh?
