I don't own Invader Z-

QIRTZ DOES NOT OWN ZIM!

Shut up, Zim...but it's true...

The hall was packed with several chosen human representatives who sat on one side of the room. Their media as well were ready by the side. Opposite were several important galactic races who were cordially invited to the wedding as a form of truce, some of which had also set up their own media crew ready to show it throughout the traverse. There are also allies of Zim and Gaz (the Resisties for one) who took had their tables near the stage.

Tak walked towards the stage and stood behind the podium. She adjusted the mike and observed he surroundings. The guests and the cameras were all on her. Tak stayed cool under all the stares. She can't be a great Tallest if she got a bit of stage-fright, now can she?

The Irken Tallest look beyond the crowd, towards the leader of Gaz's personal guards. Skoodge looked through his messages before shutting it off. He looked up to Tak and gave a thumbs up.

It's time.

Take cleared her voice and started the ceremony.

"Welcome human dignitaries, galactic race representatives, fellow Irkens, friends and allies. I am the Almighty Tallest Tak and today is a great day for not only my people, but for humanity as well. Today, we bear witness to the start of our races unification and the beginning of a new era. Before I go on, however, I would like to express my best wishes to both the bride and groom.

"Congratulations, Zim for actually finding someone crazy enough to be with you. And as for Gaz, good luck to you, for you will need something to keep you sane enough to be around Zim."

A few chuckles could be heard from the guests. "But jokes aside, I am happy to see the two of you together. There could never be a more suitable match. Well, other than myself and my fiance."

"Now, without further ado, please welcome the Irken Empire's leader, His Almighty Greatness, Overlord Zim."

On cue, the Irken anthem played and everyone turned to the back of the hall to see his Greatness in his most intimidating state. Smoke machine was installed just to add an extra flare for his entrance. Zim does like to make a flashy entrance. Most of the guests stared silently, but the allies and friends he had gathered all cheered and clapped.

Zim reached to the stage. Tak gave her leader a quick salute before she starts introducing the bride. Unfortunately, she was rudely interrupted by a cloaked person pointing his blaster towards the overlord.

"ZIM! D-!" But he only made it that far.

His blaster suddenly exploded and a portal had sucked him in before it disappeared. It ended as quickly as it started.

For those that missed it, this was what happened. As soon as the cloaked assassin pulled out his blaster, Skoodge quickly destroyed the blaster by overloading it while another guard used a portal gun to send the assassin away. To where, no one knows, except Gaz's personal guards and the upper echelon of the Irken Empire.

While the guests were wide-eyed (and a few merely smirked or were unfazed), Zim turned to see who had addressed him.

"What was that?" He had missed what transpired behind him. Besides the wild look on the guests' faces, nothing seemed to be out of place.

"It was nothing, Zim." Tak answered coolly. Zim looked at her and merely shrugged it off.

"Moving on."

"I would like to welcome the soon to be Mistress of the Irken Empire, the renown Doom Bringer of Earth, Her Lady, Gazlene Membrane."

Moonlight Sonata echoed through the hall as Gaz, accompanied by her brother, entered the hall. Eerie and beautiful, a fitting description of Gaz at the moment.

As they walked, Dib can't help but comment, "Would've been nice if you chose a different song."

"You should be lucky I compromised. If it was up to me, I would have picked something from my collection." Gaz whispered back.

"Are you guys getting married or debuting WWE?" A smile graced Gaz's lips for a split second before she went back to her cool demeanor.

The two reached the stage. After a quick hug, Gaz stood next to Zim while Dib took his place to the where Tak was.

"Did anything happened?" he asked.

"Nothing important." Tak replied. Soon, it would be revealed that the assassin was a former Tallest who tried to rebel against Zim during his campaign. His name was forgotten, but Irkens remembered him to be the Tallest in purple. All the guards and Tak knew this, but let him be unless he does something foolish.

Dib nodded and faced the crowd.

"Hello, everyone. I am Dib Membrane, President of the United States of America, Alliance Chairman and brother to the bride. As you all know, we are gathered here today to witness the joining between these two individuals in holy matrimony. I have known these two my whole life and it brings me happiness to see my sister find someone."

Even if that someone is a jerk, Dib thought to himself.

"Overlord Zim, will you take Gazlene Membrane to be your Mistress, to be by her side in her weakest state and in her most deadliest, to always support and protect her, and to love and cherish her till death due you part?"

"OF COURSE!" Zim answered, "Zim will take my love-pig as Zim's Mistress, Dib-stin-"

Whack

Gaz gave Zim a slap to the back of the head and a death stare before he continued on, "I mean, I do."

"Then, do you, Gazlene Membrane, take this jerk of a-"

Whack

Tak mimicked her future sister-in-law's actions on her own lover. Dib rubbed the back of his head and proceeded, "Do you, Gazlene Membrane, take Overlord Zim to be your husband, to be by his side in his weakest state and in his most deadliest, to accept every flaw and success, to always love and cherish him till death due you part?"

"I do." Gaz answered.

"Then, by the power invested in me as one of the world leaders, and with Tallest Tak's permission as one of the leading officer of the Irken Empire, I pronounce you husband and wife. You may...kiss the bride." Dib spat the last part out, trying his best, but failing, to not show how much he dislike what was to come.

The two lovers faced each other. Zim grasp Gaz's shoulders, closed his eyes and leaned in. Gaz closed her eyes and tip her head a bit. As the distance between the two closed in, memories start to play in their head, moments of their kisses before this. From the first time they kissed, to the many times they would kiss thinking it was their last; the two could feel inside themselves that this kiss will be special.

Slowly but surely, their lips met.

As they kissed, the crowd erupted with cheers. Clapping, cheering, sighs, aws and oohs, sobbing (and one groaning brother). But they did not hear that (especially the groaning brother). They heard the sound of their heartbeats. They felt the warmth of their lips and the feeling spread through their bodies.

For that moment, they felt like they could strip off all their titles. For that moment, there was no Overlord and Mistress, no Soldier and Doom bringer, No Invader or loner. There was only two lovers. There was only Zim and Gaz.

When the moment passed and they seperated, Zim kept his lips just centimeters apart. He whispered three words.

"You Are Mine."

Gaz couldn't help but smile.

END OF CHAPTER 2. I hope you enjoyed yourselves~

It took me some time to write this part and I'm still not confident writing kissing or love scene. Or wedding scenes for that matter. But here's me still hoping that it's good enough.

Till next time,

Qirtz signing off~
