"Well, well." Zim started in a mocking tone, rising from his seat and walking up to the siblings. "Isn't this great? Old friends reuniting after…" Zim trailed off, searching for something at the back of his memory. "How long has been, again? Five Earth years, already?" He smiled mockingly, then took a threatening position in front of Dib. "By the way… That's Almighty Tallest Zim for you, you filthy worm."
"You're in any position of threatening me, space dwarf." Dib defied, looking down at Zim with repulse, hence he was still some good two inches shorter than Dib.
Dib received a punch in the stomach from Zim for his daring words, bending his body in pain and coughing to recover his breath.
"Oh, Dib." Zim smiled morbidly at Dib. "Look at yourself. I don't think I'm the one who you should be saying that to." Dib glared at Zim, who stared back at him with an air of superiority. "But, since we're all gathered here, I think I should run you through the current situation." Zim shrugged.
"Oh, give me a break!" Gaz exclaimed. "Spare your words, stupid. It's pretty obvious why you're here."
"Oh?" Zim let out, surprised, getting dangerously close to Gaz's face. "Okay, then. Care to explain for me?"
Gaz rolled her eyes. "You're here to enslave humanity as well as get a revenge for the way everybody treated you. How you became the 'supreme alien leader', I have no idea. But I'm pretty much sure that you drained all the water of the planet, is that correct? Your species is intolerant to water after all, and you might as well know by now how it is important for a human."
A lop-sided smile stamped Zim's features, a brow raised in surprise. He let out a low, dark chuckle. "Congratulations, little Gaz! You just solved, pretty much, everything! But I already knew that you had it in you!"
"Cut the crap!" Gaz spat. "Now, what do you want with us?!"
Zim tilted his head to the side, brows raised in surprise and a mocking smile on his face. "Really?" He stretched out his hand, touching Gaz's strands. "You figured all of that out, but couldn't figure out this?" He whispered seductively to her.
"Don't touch her!" Dib barked.
Zim gave his arch-nemesis a tired look, then sighed, directing himself to the guards that brought them in. "You can take him, now."
The guards nodded and proceeded to drag Dib out of the room. He screamed and tried to fight to no avail, until that one of the guards punched him so hard in the face that Dib passed out.
"Dib!" Gaz yelled, then turned to Zim with pure rage on her face as he chuckled. "You…" Gaz spoke in a low, threatening voice. "You bastard, miserable son of a-"
"Rough words for such a pretty face." Zim cut her off.
"FUCK YOU!" Gaz yelled at the top of her lungs.
"You're getting altered." Zim's smile turned into a bored expression. "You better try to calm down, for I have an important request for you."
Gaz was surprised to hear that. "What do you want?" She asked skeptically.
"Oh, Gaz…" Zim shook his head with a smile on his face. "You know… I can't remember when nor even how it happened, but you should know by now how interesting you are to me." Gaz rose a brow at that, feeling so shocked she didn't even notice when Zim placed his finger under her chin, forcing her to look up at him. "All that power and rage concentrated into one pretty, petite being. I think you might be of good use for me. Say, Gaz… how would like to be my queen?"
Gaz's face contorted in disbelief. "That's a weird way of saying that you've got the hots for me." She taunted, jerking her face away from his grasp, never breaking eye contact. "And it's also a weird way of showing me that, but I guess I should be already expecting that from an alien psycho."
Zim sighed impatiently. "You didn't answer my question."
"How about 'no'?" Gaz said.
"Are you sure that that's the answer you want to give me?" Zim said tiredly.
"I'd rather be made into a test subject, be dissected and have an alien worm implanted in myself before it hatches through my ribcage when it's matured." Gaz straight-up answered.
"Very well…" Zim stared at her boringly. "I guess I'll just have to have it my way, then." He smiled tiredly.
"You're not letting me out, are you?" Gaz asked with a sigh, almost rhetorically.
"You're too precious for me to free you, little demon seed." Zim whispered. "But, if you don't want to accept my offer, 'guess I'll just have to keep you as my pet."
"You're kidding." Gaz said angrily.
"I assure you that I'm being quite serious." Zim stared at her for a moment before turning his back on her and ordering the guards. "You can take her, now."
The guards who still held Gaz obeyed, dragging her away from there. She was taken many doors away from the control room. When they arrived at her destination, they opened a door to reveal a room on the other side. Gaz couldn't help but let her jaw drop at the sight of the room: it was a huge, luxurious bedroom with decorated, pink walls, a maroon, fluffy carpet covering the floor and a huge bed with silk, red sheets in the middle. It was decorated with light pink with red details furniture, such as nightstands, closets, chairs, couches and coffee tables. It was a bedroom worthy of a queen.
"You're kidding, right?" Gaz turned her attention to the guards who still held her. "What kind of prank is this?"
"No prank." One the guards replied confused, in his deep voice. "This is where you're staying, by Almighty Tallest Zim's demand."
"But I said that-" Gaz started, not able to finish her sentence.
"Yeah, we heard." The other guard cut her off as they dragged her into the room. "But it's Tallest Zim's wish, so we grant it without questioning."
They unlocked her restraints and she massaged her hands, looking up at the guards in disbelief.
"Enjoy your staying." One of the guards spoke. "Also, good luck at trying to escape from here."
They left the room laughing, and Gaz stared at them angrily before taking a good look at the room from its inside. By now, she couldn't hold back her tears, anymore. She threw her backpack on the floor and stomped over to the bed, throwing herself in it as she buried her head behind her arms and cried silently. She raised her head from her arms slightly, looking at her surroundings with her vision blurred by her tears. She was just gonna have to get herself used to all of that, wouldn't she?
