Tak took in a deep deep breath, smelling the summer air that was fused with cut grass and a far off bar-b-q. Her arms were full, carrying bags of essential items for the night ahead. Mint ice-cream, chocolate ice-cream, bliss chocolates, popcorn, peppercinnis, dorritos, some irken snacks and vodka. Mimi was walking next to her carrying her overnight bag.
Tak agreed to bring the food as long as Gaz promised to provide the entertainment. After a horrible incident where Tak and Gaz had to stop Dib and Zim from destroying eachother, they agreed it would be nice to have some time away from them. A weekend with the girls. What fun! Tak quickened her pace as she saw her boyfriend's house come into veiw.
Gaz had said Dib would be at a paranormal convention that was out of town and they weren't even sure if their father still existed, so the girls would have the house to themselves. Tak smiled slightly, ringing the doorbell.
"Coming!" Gaz's muffled voice called out.
Tak waited patiently, briefly worrying about the melting ice cream. Far off in the distance, an explosion errupted. Tak could swear she could almost hear Zim screaming...
Gaz opened the door, breaking her out of her thoughts. Things exploded all the time, no biggie... Gaz nodded and took the bags from Tak's arms, carrying them into the kitchen as Tak and Mimi invited themselves in. They followed the human into the kitchen and watched her as she put away the ice cream.
"Did you get the movies?" Tak asked.
Gaz nodded, "I said I would, didn't I?"
"Which ones?"
"Fried Green Tomatoes, Goodfellas, Dracula, Night of the living Dead, Bundy, Ed Gein, Donner Party, and Death proof. All the usual chick flicks."
"awww.." Mimi whined, "No ponies?"
Gaz's eye twitched, "No...no ponies..."
Tak and Gaz had soon changed into their sleeping attire, Gaz wearing a giant white t-shirt with grey text saying '40% angel, 60% percent bitch so watch out'. And Tak wearing silk, blue pajamas with the irken symbol and swollen eyeball logo decorating them. Mimi was out of her cat disquise, sitting in the middle of the living room floor watching the two females argue over what movie to watch first.
"But if the serial killer movies really are as disturbing as you say, then we should watch those first and not let it freak us out during the other movies..." Tak stated her point.
"Tak, that doesn't make sense..."
Tak growled, "Fine...I know an easy way to settle this..Mimi!"
Mimi stood, saluting. Tak took the DVDs and stargetically placed them in a circle around the little SIR unit.
"Which ever Mimi points to, we watch...Spin, girl!" Tak orderd. Gaz decided not to point out that it was Tak's robot and therefore might be more likely to chose one of her movies. Mimi flopped down on her back and curled up into a ball, slowly staring to spin faster and faster. Finally she slowed down. Tak and Gaz watched as Mimi slowly spinned one last time before stopping, her antennae pointing to Goodfellas. Gaz smiled triumphiant.
Tak sighed, "Fine...you win. But I order the pizza!"
Gaz considered this and nodded, deciding this was only fair.
"As far back as i can remember I always wanted to be a gangster..You think I'm funny!"
Gaz watched the scene Ray Liota and Joe Pesci argue over him being funny and his temper. Mimi was sitting on top of the couch, playing with her purple hair as Tak was pacing behind them on the phone, "Yes, that's one with mushroom and olives...black olives...another with pepperoni and extra cheese...can we get the stuffed crust?.. and one pineapple.. hey Gaz?"
Gaz turned her head, ceasing the little SIR unit next to her head, "Yeah?"
"We got plenty soda, right?"
"...Yeah, but it doesn't hurt to be on the safe side." Gaz thought, biting her lip.
Tak nodded in agreement as she turned her attention back to the phone, "Yes, and a 2-liter of poopsi cola...AND IT BETTER BE HERE IN 15 MINUTES!" Tak hissed as she hung up and sat next to Gaz sinking back into the movie.
The girls were giggling at the antics of Joe Pesci when the door slammed closed. Gaz groaned as she saw Dib hanging up his coat.
"Some idiot released a demonic-roach at the convention, so it was canceled. There goes a perfectly good weekend..." Dib froze as he turned around and saw Tak. Tak blushed a deep green.
Gaz rolled her eyes and finnished his sentence, "...ruined.."
"Tak...I-I didn't know you were coming over...I didn't forget a date or something, did I?"
Tak shook her head, "No...Gaz promised to tell me about earth movies designed for the females on your planet. I am quite enjoying it so far."
Dib glanced at the TV skeptically. Since when was this a chick flick? Gaz growled in her throat as Tak scooted on the couch to make room so Dib could sit next to her. What was supposed to be girl time was now being invaded by her stupid brother, leaving her to feel like a third wheel. Well, fourth including Mimi.
Dib and Tak chattered mindlessly about the movie, annoying Gaz further. Mimi tapped Gaz on the head, "Almost done..."
"Almost done with what?" Gaz didn't get a chance to hear the answer as the doorbell rang. She glared at Dib and Tak, getting up, "Oh, let me."
Tak looked at Dib, "Must be the pizza..."
Gaz sighed as she pulled out Dib's wallet that she had swiped and opened the door. She froze. Zim, who was standing there, froze as well. Gaz froze because of the fact that a singed Zim and Gir standing there with suitcases could only mean one thing. They were planning on staying. Zim froze because of the cute piggy-tails Gaz's hair were held in.
"Why do you have suitcases?"
"Why is your hair in bows?"
Gaz's eyes widened as she felt her hair, and sure enough, her hair was being held up in two cute PINK bows. Quickly, she tore them out and stared at him, "well?"
"Gir has infested my base with chickens. It will take the computer a couple of days to restore it to normal yet I can not find an earth hotel that is not disgusting... or one with a lab..." Zim started explaining matter of factly before pausing and looking at her, "Gaz-human, I am desperate. Zim can not sleep without explosive chemicals under the same roof. I just can't!"
"...and you know that we have a lab with explosive chemicals." Gaz raised her brow at him.
"A primitive lab, yes, but explosive none the less...Please Human, don't send Zim out to freeze in the snow!" Zim sank to his knees.
"Zim, it's summer..." Gaz sighed, her and Tak's sleepover was already ruined, "Fine. But DON'T. START. ANYTHTHING!"
Zim nodded as Gir giggled. Zim looked at him, "What?"
"You're doing it wrong..."
Gaz rolled her eyes and went back in to warn Dib and Tak.
"Doing what wrong, Gir?"
"Yous supposed ta have a ring...and only be on one knee."
Zim looked confused before his contacted eyes widened. He quickly jumped up, "Gir, that never happened. Delete this memory!"
Dib and Tak stared at Gaz in shock. How could she? Zim? Sleeping under the same roof? It was...unholy. Mimi giggled, clapping her metal hands as Gir came walking in. Upon the sight of his friend, Gir squeeled in joy. He jumped out of his dog suit and rushed to her, knocking her off the couch, licking her face.
Gaz, Tak and Dib were watching in interest when a pleasant aroma caught their senses. They turned to see Zim holding three pizza boxes and a soda-liter. Dib and Tak glared at him, as if he were thinking about molesting the pizza.
"I don't know what you're planning...but I'll figure it out!" Dib hissed.
Zim balked, "Uh-uh.."
"Oh, yes I will... Just remember, I have my forces with me now!" Dib gestured to Tak and Gaz.
"When I get my base back, that won't matter..."
"But you're on my turf now...Ow!"
Gaz pulled on Dib's hair, "Wrong, this is MY turf!"
Tak nodded, as she got up and snatched the pizza away from Zim, "And we are tired of you two ruinning everything! You are not screwing up this weekend!"
Dib and Zim shook as they received death glares from the females. Even Mimi, who was playing with Gir, stopped and snarled at him. Dib and Zim shuddered, the room getting colder with their icy eyes and looked at eachother and nodded in a temperary truce. As dangerous as Gaz and Tak could be, if they were to ever join forces would be disasterous.
Dib went upstairs to change into his pajamas. Usually, he slept in his underwear but with Tak there he decided to put on his best pair of grey cotton pj's. Zim had also changed into his, though you would hardly know it as it looked very much like his usual outfit. But seeing Tak out of her disguise put him at ease enough to take off his. Dib could hardly believe what he was looking at when he came back down.
Two aliens, one female sitting next to his sister on the couch, the other laying on the floor., watching TV and eating pizza off of papper plates. Hell had froze over. Dib just shrugged and took a slice of pepperoni, sitting next to Tak as they watched the movie.
"You got some nerve standing me up! Nobody does that to me.."
Zim giggled as the human actress ranted, "There's Gaz."
Gaz narrowed her eyes at him, but growled when she heard Dib and Tak laugh in agreement. They shrugged and she decided to just let it slide. A while later, the group of misfits stretched out as the credits rolled.
"That was awesome!" Tak smiled.
Zim nodded, "As much as it pains me to say it, I have to agree...if only I can obtain this power of the mafia and use it for the invasion."
Dib's eye twitched, "God help us all..."
"What movie shall we watch next?" Tak asked Gaz eagerly. Gaz smiled already knowing which one...
