As I explained in the summary, this story isn't actually a story- It's actually a bunch of different one-shots that I want to do. Whether it is romance, action, angst, whatever. These stories will not connect to each other unless other wise I say so. Every single new one-shot/chapter I will give a summary of the chapter incase you do or do not want to read it. Some of these chapters will be OOC and some will not, so heads up in advance. :)
So, without further adieu, let me begin.

Summary: It is many, many years later after Zim has been sent to Earth. He has not conquered Earth, not even Canada, and Dib is still incredibly insane. Oh, and the Tallests haven't told Zim that his mission was a fake. The Tallests get invited to Zim's high school graduation, but will they go to it or leave Zim in the dust?
Genre: Comedy, SLIGHT hints of family and Gaz/Zim romance.
Title: Annoyance On Graduation Day
"You know- These are actually really good looking pictures for having Zim in them."
Red snarled over at Purple, the other Tallest completely ignoring his co-partner as he munched away at the chips he had. Before the Tallests was a hovering metal dish, pictures and a letter sprawled out on the object carelessly. Zim was in all of the pictures, some of the pictures with him, some gothic girl, and this other guy with a really big head. The other pictures were what Zim called his 'senior pictures', consisting of him wearing really nice clothes as he leaned against a wall, a doorway, or whatever other item.
"This is Zim we're talking about here, Purple, he never looks good. His disguise is stupid looking also, just let it go."
"You know- I've been looking up at what this 'high skool' graduation looks like through Zim's internet database-"
"You did what?"
"And it looks kinda fun, free food and stuff. All the hyu-mans seem excited about this event, we should go!"
"No, Purple, we aren't going."
"You know- The portal is up so we can just go there in a matter of seconds, after the event we can destroy the portal so Zim wouldn't even know about it."
"No!"
"You know- Zim is the first Irken ever to graduate from a 'high skool' that's kinda cool if you think about it…"
"Purple, I said no!"
"You know- This is an important thing on Earth…"
"Stop saying 'you know'! I know, but I don't care! We aren't going, we don't even like Zim and it's a waste of time!"
"You know-"
"Shut up! Now you're acting like Zim!"

…
"Have anything to say, Purple?"
"Advisor Blue, tell Red that I'm not talking to him."
Red eyes narrowed at his co-partner that sat next to him in a hovering chair, Purple completely ignoring the gaze as he inspected his two fingered hand. The two were currently in a meeting with all of the highest ranking military officers around, they were discussing conquering all of the other planets around. Not Purple though, he hadn't said a single word during the entire meeting. Refused to act like he cared about a single matter going on.
The female Irken with blue eyes blinked once, then twice, until she tilted her head towards Tallest Red.
"Excuse me, Tallest Red; it seems that Tallest Purple would like me to inform you that he is not talking to you."
"Oh yeah? Tell Tallest Purple that no matter what game he plays, we still won't be going to the meaningless graduation."
Her eyebrow tugged upwards, though the advisor turned her head towards Tallest Purple.
"Excuse me, my Tallest Purple, but it seems that no matter what 'games' you play, Tallest Red believes that you two shall not go to that 'meaningless' graduation."
"WELL; you tell RED, yeah, just RED that if he keeps refusing this will only get worse and worse!"
All eyes were now on Tallest Purple, a few gasps escaping here and there at his response. Red's mouth fell open, stuttering non-sense as he kept blinking rapidly. Advisor Blue was trained enough to not grin in front of everyone, but she was laughing hysterically on the inside. Whatever the Tallests were arguing about it must have meant a lot to Tallest Purple to go too this event.
"Ahem. Of course, Tallest Purple. Excuse me; Tallest Purple would like me to tell you R-"
"Ugh!"
No words were spoken as Red cried out in anger, quickly hovering out of the meeting chamber in bitter rage at how Purple was acting. When the metallic door slid closed behind him was when Purple smirked, tilting his head so his purple eyes could look into the pair of blue eyes of his advisor.
"Tell Red that he's stoopid and we're going to that Earthling graduation, even if it kills him."
"Of course, my Tallest, but I believe Tallest Red already knows that information."

…
"Grr- Stop copying me!"
"Grr- Stop copying me!"
Purple sneered right back at Tallest Red, clearly mimicking every word and sound he would make. Red's two fingered hand reached upwards to tug at his antennas, eyes closing. He took a deep breath in and out, counting to thirty before he opened them again. With every passing hour that was getting closer to Zim's graduation that seemed to have only intensified Purple's annoying games. He wouldn't stop!
"We aren't going to the graduation and that's final, Purple!"
"We aren't going to the graduation and that's final, Purple!"
"No matter what you do, nothing will change my mind of letting us go to the graduation! Nothing will change my mind! Nothing!"
Red actually blinked a few times in shock when Purple didn't mimic his exact words, letting a sigh of relief leave his lips. The relief was washed away in seconds when purple eyes were glazing dangerously at him, a shadow now forming over his co-partner's features. Purple took one drink from the soda within his grasp, opening his mouth to harshly whisper-
"You leave me no choice, Red."
…
(Three very long hours later)
…
"-Mah Tallest! Mah Tallest! Hey, hey! Mah Tallest! Mah Tallest! Oh, hey, hey, Tallest! Mah TAAALLEESST! Mah Tallest, oh, my-"
"STOP IT! It's been THREE HOURS, Purple, THREE HOURS! FINE! YOU WIN! We'll go to Zim's STUPID GRADUATION! By the past Tallest, it's more annoying when you do that than Zim!"
Red threw his arms up in the air after his cry, a headache clearly forming by now after all these hours of being tortured. Purple nodded in satisfaction, informing Advisor Blue that she would be in charge until they came back from Earth, which she happily agreed too. The two Tallests began hovering away, one in complete rage as the other was happily whistling a tune.
Before Red could even reach towards the portal they needed to get too Earth a two fingered hand was gripping his robes.
"Hey, no, we can't go like this! We have to put on a hyu-man disguise like Zim does!"
"ARE YOU KIDDING ME?"

…
So, this is how Red was going to die, on this filthy planet.
There he was- Sitting all the way at the front row of the bleachers, having the perfect view to see all of the graduating students walk across the stage. Zim's Sir Unit was by their side, chewing away at a cupcake in some green costume. Oh yeah, this was fun, sitting here with a bunch of annoying hyu-mans as each named being called took hours to go by. And this costume was so annoying! Red had done the same thing like Zim did with his costume. Put in red contacts, brushed back deep red hair, and put on just a black suit. It was strange to have people tell him- "Oh, you must be Zim's uncle; you both have the same skin condition!" It was even stranger when these Earthling women tried flirting with him; he definitely had no idea what to do then!
Purple, on the other hand, seemed to be loving every single bit of this event. His disguise had consisted of purple contacts with matching purple, slightly messy hair. He has gone for a more casual look than Red, a simple long sleeved, button up white shirt and black slacks. He was happily slurping his soda in one hand, a funnel cake resting on one thigh, a bag of chips resting on the other leg, and a piece of cake balancing on his knee cap. He couldn't be happier sitting here with all this free food and listening to all of the people gossip around him.
He didn't even look angry when someone had called him Zim's father!
Must have been because of all the free food…
"Zim Vootcruiser!"
"Yay, mastur!"
"Whoo! Go Zim! Congrats on not dying and finishing skool!"
"Let's go Zim!"
Red cheered right after Purple, so yeah- He didn't like Zim, but if they were going to be at this stupid thing anyway… Red contact eyes blinked in shock when he heard more than just Purple and him cheering for Zim, listening to all the many happy cries and joyful noises Zim was receiving. The Irken walked across the stage while wearing a silly, blue robe and a stupid, square hat to go and shake some fat man's hand. Gir took quick pictures as Zim was given his diploma, evil grin spreading across the Irken's face.
"You know, Purple, Zim has gotten really tall."
"Yeah, he has."
Was all Purple responded before he noticed Gir giggling like crazy, eyebrow tugging upwards while throwing a chip into his mouth.
"What?"
"Hehehe- Oh, nuthin', just watchin mastur and Gazzy."
Red instantly perked up at hearing the insane Sir Unit, both Tallests quickly catching the sight that Gir was speaking about. Zim had 'accidentally' gone down the wrong row of students, kicking some nerd boy out of his seat to take a seat by some scary looking girl. This girl was beautiful though, no doubt, with her long, violet hair and lovely body she was a hit- But she looked really scary. Some big headed boy leaned over to glare at this girl and Zim, only receiving a middle finger from the girl and a mocking laugh form Zim.
"Oh yeah, Gaz, Zim never stops talking about her when he gives us a transmission."
Purple said like the words were obvious; biting into his funnel cake, powder sugar now around his lips.
"What? You actually listen to Zim when he contacts us?"
"Eh, yeah. You know, he is less annoying now and much taller."
Oh, by the past Tallests, what was wrong with today?
"Congrats seniors, you may now do the ceremony of throwing your hats up in the air!"
All of the sudden there were hundreds of hats flying into the air, cheering and joyful cries ringing through out the entire air from both students and family members. Students hugging each other as parents ran onto the field to get to their children. Red and Purple made their way to the field, not trying to hurry up when they caught the sight of the fake invader embracing his female human companion.
"So, have anything to say about today, Red?"
"Yes, I-"
"PURPLE!"
In an instant the dream was gone, purple eyes flying open as he flung his arms around himself like a scared, little girl. The blurriness was now gone, replaced by the sight of Red hovering before him, frowning deeply. Purple glanced downwards at his clothing, not seeing the graduation clothes he had been wearing and when he touched the top of his head no wig, just antenna.
"Sorry, Pur, you were moaning and acting weird, so I thought it would be best to wake you up."
"Uhh- Yeah, yeah. That's fine. Has Zim contacted us at all?"
"What? No. Why?"
"…Curious is all, his annoying voice should have woken me up is all. HEY! Have they made any donuts yet?"
"Yup! Wanna go get some?"
"Yeah, I wanna go get some! I'll be there in a second though, still need to wake up a bit."
He kept smiling till Red was out of his sight, now letting his smile fall off his green face. By the past Tallests, what had THAT dream been about? That was the strangest dream of his life! Next to the Resisty-Sir-Unit-Irken-Eating Donut factory, of course, that dream was weird. That dream though, with Zim though, and…
Purple paused from his thoughts as he felt through his robes once more, pulling out a crumpled picture.
It was a picture of Zim and him posing in their human disguises, powdered sugar on both of their faces and grins wide. Zim was wearing those stupid blue robes though and the back ground was filled with hyu-mans wearing those silly outfits.
Had it all really been a dream?
