A/n: I own no character, except Satsuki. Sakurai is my best friend's OC and we talked about this over AIM. Thank you AIM for giving us every crazy idea in this story.
Anyway, I actually had this story developing in my brain meats for a while. So here you go!

Unexpected Saviors
Chapter One: A New Game…
GIR ran into the door and went straight into the trashcan. He fell down through the chute and ran up to Zim. He took off his green dog costume and smiled.
"Master! Master!" he held up a game cartridge. "I wanna play this one!"
Zim looked down at the cartridge and studied it. On the front was a picture of a sword with words in a different language on it. There were also large words that read "The World" in bold, gothic print.
"What is this GIR?" Zim asked.
"It's an online game!" GIR said, his smile growing even wider. "A lot of humans play on it at once! And you can talk to them and fight monsters and fight side-by-side with the other humans and-"
"GIR, that's enough…" Zim interrupted him. "We'll play it. Alright? But ONLY because it's a good way to observe the humans."
GIR was so excited, Zim thought that he might self-destruct before they had the chance to even try it out.
Zim took the game from GIR and put the disk in his large Irken computer. GIR handed him a second one and he put that in a smaller computer next to the large one. GIR handed Zim a controller and he hooked that up to the computer. GIR hooked his own controller onto the smaller computer as well.
The screen of both computers turned to a bright red. A logo appeared in the center. It said "LLTIMATE." After the logo disappeared, Zim was asked to enter a name and username for himself. He put in "Zim" for his name. Then, he thought for a while. He then came up with the perfect name. He put in "Doom."
He clicked on ENTER. The screen turned black for a moment. Soon, a desktop appeared. It sounded a "blip!" and a sign appeared next to the e-mail button. Zim ignored it for now and waited for GIR to put in his own information.
The same registration screen came up and GIR let out a squeal of excitement. He quickly put in "GIR." He pressed ENTER and put in "Pacman" for his username. GIR giggled.
"Pacman?" Zim asked. GIR nodded, smiling. GIR pressed ENTER. The desktop came up again. Zim went up to the button that said ENTER THE WORLD. GIR copied Zim. The login screen appeared and they both logged into the World.
"This is so fun!" GIR said, looking at Zim's larger screen for a while.
A few minutes later, they were in a root town called "Aqua Capitol: Mac Anu." Zim looked at his character. It had a long spear in one hand. The hair was black and short. There was armor on the arms and his pants had red and black zigzags on them (A/n: Pants like Nuke in .hack/mutation, without the "puffiness."). Zim smiled. He liked this character.
Zim glanced at GIR's screen. His character had a long wand. It had a hat covering green hair. The outfit was very elaborate. It was a long sleeve, puffy top that seemed to be an overcoat. His pants were just as puffy as the top (A/n: Think of Mistral!). GIR looked very excited about playing this game.
"Now what?" Zim asked him.
"Join my party!" GIR squealed. Zim turned back to his screen and a message popped up. "Pacman wants you to join his party! Will you accept? YES/NO" Zim highlighted the "YES" with his controller. A "bing!" sounded and another message showed up. "You are now in Pacman's party! When Pacman uses the Chaos Gate, you will be transported as well!"
Zim tilted his head. Immediately, GIR's character walked up to a spinning thing that looked like a ring (A/n: Yeah…that's the Chaos Gate…). A few seconds went by and the two of them were transported to an area with much grass and mountains in the distance.
"Welcome to Bursting Passed Over Aqua Field!" GIR said and GIR's character raised his arms in happiness.

Okay, so it started out slow, but it'll get better once Gaz and Dib show up! Oooh! I can't wait! R&R please!
