The ruby-eyed Irken looked away from his work as a screen flashed to life, showing two very irritated Tallest. Zim's gaze flew to the screen as he saluted and said, "This is quite unexpected, my Tallest."

The red-eyed Tallest ignored the statement and replied stiffly, "Zim, you've been appointed to fight for the entire Irken Empire in a huge war that's spanning the galaxy. You're to report to Hobo 13 as soon as possible."

Zim's eyes were filled with delight as he answered, "This is a great honor, my Tallest!"

The purple-eyed Tallest shrugged, and muttered through a half-eaten donut, "It's because you're expendable."

Dib stared at his computer screen with disbelief. Zim was being sent somewhere to fight in a war that was including the entire galaxy? It couldn't be true! Or could it? "Wait...Earth is part of the galaxy, so doesn't that mean that Earth should be included? But there's no one who'll believe me..." Suddenly, Dib was reminded of one of the most prominent members of the Swollen Eyeball Network, Agent Silvereyes, who had met aliens before. "Well, I've never talked to her before, so maybe she'll believe me about Zim!"

Franticly, he pulled up a screen and opened a connection to Agent Silvereyes. A dark figure with cold silver eyes appeared on the screen and growled, "You're Agent Mothman, aren't you? What do you want?"

Dib nodded and replied, "I have a recorded video feed from the house of an alien that lives in my area. Apparently there's some sort of galaxy-wide war going on, and-"

The silver-eyed female interrupted him, "Show me, Mothman."

The large-headed kid pulled up his recording on his computer, and moved to the side so that Silvereyes could see. As it finished, she ordered, "Get the coordinates of wherever the alien is going, and find a way of getting there. I should be at your location by nightfall."

"I'll check Zim's data for the coordinates and see you then, Agent Silvereyes," Dib replied.

She narrowed her eyes and added, "Call me Myra, Mothman." As the screen faded to black, Dib turned to his computer and began searching Zim's files for Hobo 13. Within moments, a match appeared in his search. He clicked on it, and the computer immediately began decoding the file. The coordinates flashed up onto the screen.

Dib punched the air triumphantly and half-ran, half-jumped out of his chair. Dashing over to the window, the large-headed kid jumped onto the cord and slid down. He slammed into the garage door and fell to the ground. He quickly got up, rubbing his throbbing head, and ran inside as soon as the door opened.

A/N: Wow... that's probably the shortest prologue I've ever written. xDDDD

LOL. Chapter One coming on October 1st!

EDIT:: Holy crap. I can't believe I forgot a whole section of the prologue! Sorry!

ANOTHER EDIT:: My brain meats have turned into jelly today. I repeated a whole section when I last editted this... I'm a moron. GAH! .>
