Chapter 1
Deep in space, the stars slowly disappear from sight as the earth comes into view. The earth grows in size and clouds soon pass by. Trees and buildings become visible. One building stands out from the rest. A small, green house, at the end of a cul-de-sac, nestled between two much bigger houses. Large cables protrude from the small building into the surrounding walls. A large satellite dish emerges from the tall, pointy roof. Four garden gnomes accompanied by two plastic flamingos and a sign reading "I love Earth" decorate the yard.

A young man with a trench coat, glasses, and a scythe-haircut crouched on the sidewalk in front of the house, hiding behind the fence. Occasionally, he would peek over the fence with highly advanced binoculars. On the other side of the next house, two girls watched him secretly.
"There's your boooooyfriiieeeeennnd" said the taller, blonde girl, poking the shorter brunette rapidly. The brunette waved her hand away.
"Hey, shut up!" She said, a little annoyed. "His head is too big for me, anyway." She turned to the blonde.
"What should we do?" She asked.
"THAT is an excellent question." The blonde replied with a slightly sarcastic smile. The brunette giave her an agitated look and turned back to the young man, still hiding behind the fence.
"How about we…" She scratched her head as she thought. "…Tackle him and steal his organs?" She looked back at the blonde excitedly. The blonde returned her gaze, but not her enthusiasm. Instead, she looked at the brunette as if she just sprouted a second head.
"Nah, never mind. Too overdone." The brunette looked back at the young man. "….Oh for Irk's sake, let's just get him."
"And what do you intend to do once you have him?" The blonde asked with a raised eyebrow. The brunette chuckled evilly at the question before quickly turning back to the blonde.
"I have no idea." She replied with a straight face. The blonde smacked her palm against her forehead in frustration.
"Let's come up with it as we go along." The brunette suggested.
"Oh yeah, 'cause that always worked SO well..." The blonde replied sarcastically.
"Fine, Ms. Smarty-Tights, you got a better idea?" The brunette asked, becoming annoyed with the blonde's skepticism.
"No, as a matter of fact, I don't." The blonde replied, slumping her shoulders in defeat. The brunette turned back to the young man.
"Then…" She took a runner's stance and shot off like a rocket.
"JAZ! WAIT!" The blonde yelled after her. The brunette let out a battle cry, ignoring her.
The young man looked up in surprise.
"WHAT THE—" He had barely gotten the words out before Jaz landed on top of him. The two tumbled a few feet before falling off the sidewalk.
Dib lay on the ground, stunned. After a bit, he blinked and gave Jaz an annoyed look.
"Oh, it's you." He said dully.
"Can Danny and I help you spy on Zim?" Jaz asked after getting up, with a big smile on her face. The blonde came out from behind the building, rolling her eyes. Dib stared at them both, astonished at the idea of the two girls helping him spy on the evil little alien that lived in the house.
"Uh...okay...?" He said, at a loss for words. Jaz's smile immediately grew bigger than before.
"SWEEEET. So, what are you planning to do to him this time?" She asked eagerly.
"Well, I was trying to gather information quietly. Without him noticing. But I'm sure he's noticed by NOW." Dib replied snidely.
"Oh, we can fix that." Jaz said confidently. She turned to her blonde companion. "Can't we, Danny?" Danny looked at her, a little unsettled by her implication. Jaz turned back to Dib and smiles.
"Don't worry Dib, we'll help make this mission easier for you. I have a plan to get rid of Zim once and for all." She stated proudly. Dib looked at her, confused.
"What? How?"
"In case you've forgotten, we're Irkens." Jaz replied proudly.
"…And?" Dib asked, still confused.
"We know EXACTLY what to do in order to disable Zim from ever causing any harm to your planet again." Jaz said self-assuredly and looked to the side. "It would be kind of a dumb idea to not want our help, you know...even if you DO hate aliens." She looked back at him, smirking.
"But that still leaves you two." He remarked, unimpressed.
"Hey, I'm just here to get rid of Zim. That's my only mission." Jaz replied, trying to be assuring.
"And I'm only here to study Earth for my home planet. Which, in case you've forgotten is not Irk. I'm not interested in conquering your planet." Danny stated matter-of-factly.
Dib looked back and forth between the two girls before finally slumping his shoulders in defeat.
"Fine. What do you plan to do?"
"Listen closely, human." Jaz answered, taking a step toward him. "You're about to be given the greatest secrets of the Irken Empire." She pulled the other two closer and they started whispering amongst themselves, huddled together.
