I. Hero

When did those odd feelings she felt for him develop?

Tenn was an Invader. Invaders needed no one, invaders didn't feel love. It was unnatural. She grew up in a society where love was looked-down upon. If you felt love, you would be deemed a 'defect'.

She made it to the top, and she could not afford to lose that title.

Yet... When she was around him, she didn't care what Irk or the Tallest would think of her. Skoodge was not like other Irkens... He may have been short and fat, but she didn't care. He was a kind, caring soul, which was something Tenn hadn't known existed on Irk. He was able to make her laugh at his corny little jokes, and the way he would sometimes try and impress her, and sometimes trip over his own two feet while staring at her when he walked. He was so different and unlike anyone, ay Irken she ever met.

Probably the main thing she loved about him, was his bravery.

The Tallest gave him no credit. They doubted him, doubted his skills. They doubted him as an invader, yet he managed to conquer Blorch all on his own after the Talles sent him there, hoping he would die. But he survived and conquered.

But she knew now when she fell for him. When his bravery overshadowed the doubt Irk deemed him with just because of his apperance. His bravery, along with his fun, laid back personality proved him worthy in Invader Tenn's eyes.

When she was held captive on Meekrob, the planet she was assigned to, she knew the Tallest would send someone to rescue her, but she was unaware who.

Then Skoodge arrived... Along with Zim.

Zim acted cocky, rather full of himself to where Tenn found nothing to even like about the defected Irken, yet Skoodge... He was different.

He saved her from almost being executed in Meekrob. That short, fat Irken whom everyone on Irk laughed at, saved Tenn from death. And with his caring personality, he also saved her from herself, and opened her up to feeling emotions.

He was her hero, in every way possible.


A/N: I made this randomly because, right next to ZATR, SATNNR (Skoodge&Tenn romance) is my other favorite IZ pairing. This talks about a would-have-been episode, "Battle For Meekrob", where Skoodge and Zim save Tenn from Meekrob after being held captive there. I think skoodge/Tenn would be a cute pairing. :') I'm writing these one-shots about skoodge and Tenn also because there is not ONE story about them! DX Well, I'm ending that problem right now. ;)

Lol, please read and review (NICELY)! :D
