After thinking a lot about this fan fiction, I have decided on some things. Thanks to those of you who reviewed! We have big plans for this story.

"Incoming transmission!' yelled an exuberant purple cone shaped alien who was known as Shloonktapooxis. He hovered into the room and flew towards the captain, then stopped in front of him.

Lard Nar instantly looked in the direction of his chair, which was where he used to sit to receive calls. With a frown, he looked at the cone and asked, "Who is it from?"

"Uhhhh... An Irken escape pod," Shloonktapooxis said loudly with a grin, tongue poking out of the side of his mouth.

The captain and several crew members silently stared at Shloonktapooxis.
Lard Nar paused for a while, eyes wide. "An IRKEN? Hmm... this could be bad. Accept the call!"

Lard Nar walked towards the remains of his chair and turned to face the large window. He could spot the escape pod outside the ship. This was soon replaced with the head of the person calling them. It caught the crew by surprise that the person was not an Irken, but a seemingly frightened human girl. She was inside the escape pod like Shloonktapooxis said. She was breathing heavily as though she had just been running from someone. "Please, I urgently need help!" she said quickly. She had a British-sounding accent.

"Why do you need help? What happened?" Lard Nar asked, unsure what to make of the situation just yet.

"An alien... like you, but green with red eyes and black antennae... He threw me into this thing and I don't know where I am! I live on Earth. I want to go home!" she pleaded.

"Zim is sending humans into space now?" Lard Nar asked himself. He kept his eyes on the girl. "Do you know why he did it? How long have you been in there?"

Shloonktapooxis hovered beside the captain, watching the screen intently. Tex was visible in the lower right corner of the screen. looking up at it. Spleenk, Nin, Cloaky, and the rest of the crew listened from behind the area where the captain was standing.

The girl shook her head. "I don't know why, and I don't know how long, either. There's no way to tell! Please, please help me... I can make it up to you!"

An apprehensive Lard Nar squinted and paused, scrutinizing the look on the girl's face. "I don't know about this," he said quietly as he leaned near Shloonktapooxis, looking sideways at a few of the crew members. "She could be lying. What if she's being controlled by an Irken?" he asked in a quiet voice.

"Oh, come on. We gotta help her," said Spleenk with a sympathetic frown. "It's our duty to help victims of Irkens in times like this."

"If she is an Irken, we will be a step ahead of her," Tex commented. "We are going to Earth anyway. We'll need to land in order to drop her off, though."

Lard Nar looked down thoughtfully, then nodded, despite his lingering paranoia. He turned to face the girl. "We're letting you on the ship and will take you to Earth. Is there anything else you want to tell me before I end the call? Ah wait, what is your name?"

"Tak," the girl said, wiping a fake tear from her eye in relief. "Thank you very much."

Lard Nar attempted a smile. Instead, the corners of his mouth twitched and it came out looking more like a sneer. The rest of the crew looked proud to be helping her. The call was ended.

Tak was smiling. She let out a small laugh when they could no longer see her. "This is easy. I'm coming for you, Zim," she said aloud, baring her teeth threateningly at the end of her sentence. She had been trapped, floating in space for years. It gave her a lot of time to dwell on her hatred towards Zim. She was furious with the two bastards who got her stuck like this, and the Tallest for refusing to send help. She was soon teleported into the control deck from the escape pod, which was assumed to be useless. She instantly looked around at her new surroundings and put a false look of worry on her face.

"HI THERE!" someone yelled. It was Shoonktapooxis. He flew towards Tak, causing her to lean backwards and narrow her eyes dangerously when he hovered uncomfortably close to her face.
"I'm Shloonktapooxis, but you can call me S or Shloonk. That's what everyone else does! And over there is Three-headed Man, Cloaky, Spleenk, Spoof, Blogy, Tex, Davis, Wilson, and Lardy!"

"Hell-" Tak began to say, but cut herself off and shrieked as something acidic was poured down her back.

"Oh! And that's Nin!" Shloonktapooxis added.

Tak gasped and jumped, turning around to find that a green blob alien was standing behind her, and vomiting something purple. Eyes wide, she struggled to show no further reaction that indicated she was in pain, not wanting them to be suspicious. She clenched her hands, forcefully enduring it. Her arms twitched as she turned back to the funnel alien. "Nice to meet you... Shloonk. Do you have a cloth I can use to wipe this off of me?"

Lard Nar ran up to Tak, Nin, and Shloonktapooxis. He stopped a few feet away from them. "Ah! I'm sorry about that! She does that sometimes," he apologized, looking displeased with the blob alien. She vomited again, this time on nothing but the floor.

Tex muttered something and left the main deck to get cleaning supplies from another room.

"Aw... That stuff never comes out. Good thing you're not wearing white," Spleenk said when he saw what happened. He pointed to a purple stain on his clothes. "Tex always wears white and she throws up on him a lot."

"That's alright," Tak said through her teeth. "A cloth, please?"

Shloonktapooxis was grinning. "Yeeeah, she does that when she's nervous or when she wants something, or when she doesn't like you. She does it to Tex all of the time because he's always trying to kill Lardy and it's fun to make him clean stuff because he hates cleaning! But don't worry, she doesn't bite or anything. She might try to make you slip on her vomit or throw up on you again, though."

Tak rose an eyebrow at him, glancing at the blob, who frowned and narrowed its eyes when she looked at it. She turned back to Shloonktapooxis. "Right... "

Tex came back, dragging a long hose. He had a white cloth in his hand. He dropped the hose on the floor near the mess and approached Tak, giving her the cloth. She immediately began wiping off the purple vomit.
