Authors note: There was supposed to be a divider in the middle of the last page but it got deleted. So I'm working on fixing that.

I gasped not sure if it was shock or fear. Shock because she was going to be the tallest one day and fear because I YELLED at her a tallest, soon to be or not, could have someone killed for less than that!

So unsure of what to say I stayed there with my mouth hanging open like an idiot. She laughed at me again. Coming to my senses I quickly started to apologize.

"I-I'm sorry, I d-didn't know it was you I swear! Please forgive me-"I would've kept going but she cut in. "Its fine. I know it was a mistake." She smiled; she seemed to be enjoying herself.

"Wh-what are you doing here?" I asked confused. "I needed something to do until I'm needed as leader, sooo I decided to become an invader to waste some time." She said sounding board, straitening her glove.

"So you decided to come HERE to observe an invader." all soon to be invaders had to observe an invader before getting an actual mission. "Well not exactly, but close enough yes."

"In coming transmission from the tallest." The computer cut in. My eyes flickered to May then to the screen. "Answer it." I commanded.

The tallest figures appeared on the screen. "Hello Zim, has May arrived yet?" I opened my mouth to answer but May beat me to it. "Yes she has." She said moving in front of the screen. They nodded.

"Can we have a moment alone May? We need to talk to Zim." She gave them a VERY cold look, obviously hating being sent away like a child, but nodded and went to another room. "Zim I want you to listen to us very, VERY carefully." Red hissed. "Of course my tallest." I said. "Good your TOP priority now is to make sure nothing at all happens to her, or you will be executed, even if she only falls and hurts her knee, got it?" I swallowed, "Of course, I wouldn't let anything happen to her anyway." I said laughing nervously. They nodded "Just so you understand." They said and cut the transmission.

I glanced around looking for where she may have gone. When I didn't see here immediately I panicked, I could be killed if this child skinned her knee, so it wasn't a good idea to leave her alone in case she got hurt.

I found her going through the cupboards, standing precariously on a drawer hanging out. She grabbed a bag of chips, looking satisfied, went to climb back down. She slipped and fell tumbling toward the ground with a surprised shriek.

I shrieked to and ran and caught her before she hit the floor. I set her on the floor and she smirked. "Tallest threaten you not to let me get hurt?" she said half laughing half very sad. "Yeah." I said confused at her tone. "If you don't mind me asking, why do you sound sad?"

She laughed again "I guess it's just having to be so careful, so nothing happens takes a lot of fun out of things." She said shrugging.

I nodded, not really understanding, just agreeing with whatever she said.

She glanced at the clock. "I should go, I have things I need to do." I nodded "I walk with you so nothing happens." I said.
