Firstly. Allow me to describe myself. I am an Irken. If you don't know what that is... you should probably quit reading this. My antennae have three sharp edges at the end, unlike the usual one you see. I am fairly tall. My hands are like huge claws. I am also thin.

I believe that is all you need to know.

Now.

This is the day that my life was ruined.

"And lastly, Invader Xyl!" shouted Almighty Tallest Red. "Haha… you, Xyl, are an honor to the Irken military, as are all the others on this mighty stage of the planet Conventia! You will be assigned to Feroth, planet of the Ferothans. A very honored place to be invading indeed…."

"I am proud to serve you, and honored for such a mission in the great Operation Inpending Doom," I replied to the Tallest as I walked to my proper place on the stage. I stood by another Irken Invader. He was slightly smaller than me, but other than size we looked almost exactly the same in body shape. Despite the difference in antennae shape and hands, he reminded me of myself. I stood proudly, yet I was feeling a bit jealous. This was Zim, who was such a great soldier that he was trusted with one of the largest and most powerful robots of the Irken Military for his invasion. 'But no matter,' I thought. 'I'm sure he'd use it more wisely than I. I am proud to have my mission.'

Ha. More wisely.

I set out to prepare. "Mo!" I shouted as soon as I reached my own ship back on planet Irk. My SIR unit jumped, alert and ready. "It is time for our first invasion. Hopefully it will not be the last…" I sighed in excitement. It was all I could do at that time, for I was an Irken soldier now.

'Now' wasn't long.

I could imagine it. The invasion… me, almighty overlord of the planet Feroth… the screams of the vicious Ferothans… this would be fun.

The screams in my head…

They seemed so real…

Too real… much… too….

"Gah!" I shouted as I leaped out of the way of a crashing Voot cruiser. "Trusted with a Voot cruiser and you fly like this!"

Something else flew past me. Or ran.

"In- Invader Screnge?" I gasped.

"It's… it's insane… Zim, trusted with such a weapon.…" Screnge panted in reply.

"Oh no," I whispered under my breath. "No, oh no, this… this can't be… Mo! Prepare for flight!"

My SIR unit and I climbed into the ship as quickly as possible.

"Screnge! Come!"

Screnge climbed into my ship with a face of inexpressible gratitude. The Irken ship lifted off and soared into the sky. We were heading away from Irk as quickly as possible.

But that's when it happened.

It was all then.

It was all him.

A stray beam of light from the planet we had just departed from came and struck my ship. But I knew this couldn't just be any stray beam to be able to escape the atmosphere of the planet.

This beam had to come from one of the largest and most powerful robots of the Irken Military.

The thing that had launched that Voot cruiser through the air.

None other than the one being controlled by the Invader that was assigned alongside me.

That had even reminded me of myself.

That I had even been jealous of.

Zim.

It was all him.

I cannot recall the next few moments quite well. All I remember is lots of rapid, sickening movement within the ship.

Then a crash.

I stumbled out of my well-damaged ship. I had no idea where I was. Where WE were. Because that is what I first thought of.

Mo.

I ran back into the ship and searched frantically. It wasn't even that big, yet wherever I looked I saw no sign of my SIR unit. But I did see Screnge. "It's okay, Screnge. You're okay. We're all okay."

'I hope,' I added mentally. Then I said, out loud, "Screnge, stay here."

"Alright," he breathed heavily back at me.

I left the ship and examined my surroundings. I breathed in, realizing that the air was safe. The planet was fairly desolate, but looked so familiar… so very familiar. The hard, orange-brown ground was cracked with dryness. There was no sign of life except for a few rocks. Then I saw him.

There he was. Mo.

"Mo!" I shouted.

"Yes… m- my master…" The SIR unit replied. He was against a large boulder.

"Mo… Mo, are you alright?"

"I… I am fine, master… what… do you require… m- me to do?" he asked.

I moved closer, suddenly realizing that he was missing his left arm and right leg. He was not just lying against the boulder. He had been smashed against it.

"Mo! You're okay… you have to be okay…"

"I am fine, m- master. Please, give me an order."

I sighed. "If it makes you feel better. Analyze our surroundings, Mo. Where are we?"

He stopped for a moment. Then he replied, "Planet Isgor, master." Then and there I realized why it had looked so familiar.

Afterword
