Red could tell by the look on Zim's face that he was trying to calculate and find out what was going on, sighing he said," Listen Zim, three days ago approximately The Massive picked up a large cruiser passing by the same quadrants as us, we continued to monitor it until it reached us, this ship however was longer then the Massive, we were larger in size while it had us beat in length, sending out a communication we got them on monitor. The being within it was tall, his skin color was white as this snow substance outside, his eyes were pitch black and he had no facial expression that we could tell, he said in a monotone voice," Greeting Irkens, I am Lord Maldrek, I have come from a distant galaxy past section L-23 in the Baldronauk Galaxy, if you surrender now there may be some room left for a few of your people to live." We laughed at him at first but since his expression didn't change we quickly realized he was not joking, smiling still we instantly called for arms and opened fired…. Only it didn't even damage his ship. He shook his head before saying," I thought so; it looks like another ship will be added to my collection." He pressed a button before the connection was cut. Our ship suddenly lost power and a pod shot out of his ship, he entered our ship and managed to send us here with a device in his gauntlet."
Zim asked," But how did he take down the Massive, how many men did he take to stop the armed forces of the Irkens that Zim knows for sure are top of the line ready?" Purple said," Oh he was by himself." Zim's eyes widened again, he asked in astonishment," What impossible, how could a mere lower life form take down the Irken race, it is not possible, we are the rulers of the universe, Zim has seen the charts?"
Red stated," The galaxy he pointed out is actually in a recess of space that is an entire black hole, it seems he is able to use them as warp gates somehow, he was able to get to us faster that way, you see that galaxy used to have one large planet that used the sun in the distance for warmth, until several stars ended up exploding nearer to it that caused a massive one to engulf the entire thing, it is strange that he has come this far for this goal, to take over when we were so close, it's almost like he has been watching us, it hurts me to ask this but can you help us Zim…."
Zim scratched his chin in thought, walking around he said," But Zim is so close to the task at hand here! Didn't you need me to keep up my work here before making me figure out how to get you back to the Massive?" Red slanted his eyes as Purple poked Gir and tried to figure out how it was still functioning right, Red said angrily," Zim! We need to get back to the Massive and check for survivors, we aren't sure why that guy sent us here but he has some goal at hand and I sure want to know how he got around the most superior of life for so long."
Zim hopped up and down and said," I know what must be done my Tallest!" He dragged there name out before continuing," We need to find out why he is out here first, if Zim sends you there now it won't benefit you if you are thrown back here again?" Red growled under his breath as he mumbled," Great so I'm stuck on Earth and worse I am stuck with Zim as a housemate….."
Purple turned from his spot on the couch and said," Well he is probably heading back to that large headed fellow kids house, he was there yesterday right?" Red gave a questioning look and asked," How did you know whose house it was?" Purple shrugged and said," It had lightning running around it, from Zim's description of that boys house that is what it looks like."
Red turned back to Zim and spat out, losing all of his patience," I am heading down into your lab Zim, if I get bombarded with something stupid by your computer I will get you later…" Moving to the elevator he moved down into the lab as Zim turned to Purple and asked," So my tallest care to explain more of this being to me, I wish to know who I am fighting?"
Purple picked up his drink that he took from Zim's fridge and said," Well from what I can tell (slurp) the being is quite tall….." Zim gestured for him to go on," Well he was rather mean; he hit me, it hurt. His ship shoots laser beams that scorched ours, he even managed to blow up the snack ship, we tried to save them but he wouldn't let us, he is cruel."
Zim scratched his head again and said," Do not worry my Tallest, no one is a match for the mighty Zim. Zim will be going now and will report when he finds more on how to get you back to the Massive, yes Zim will do this!" Zim rushed out of his home again, Purple snacked on chips and said," He is mean isn't he, that guy totally destroyed my chips!"
Zim was still processing what he had learned as he rushed through the cold morning trying to make it back to the Membrane household, as much as he despised the fact, he had to request the help of the Dib-human. Circling the next few blocks he finally made it back to the large home, knocking on the door he waited for someone to answer, it took only a few more seconds before it was thrown open.
Dib sighed and stepped out of the way, Zim slanted his eyes at him as he watched him before stepping inside, the Professor was rushing up from his lab as he had entered, nodding his head he said," Ah your back Zim, Don't worry it should only take a little longer and we may start working on family things! Why don't you go with Dib out on his annual hunt and try to help him be less INSANE!"
Rushing back down into his lab he slammed it shut and locked it, turning Zim said," Dib-human where is your lab!" Dib glared at him and asked," Why do you need it?" Zim growled as he pulled on his antennae and shouts," No time, Zim must see something that is in space, you have the only working telescope and signaler device!" Dib asked," What happened to yours….?"
Zim grumbled and replied," Gir blew it up…." Dib chuckled as he walked away, smiling he said," it seems your robot is going against you Zim, and I have the only working telescope that you can use, that is funny!" Zim growls and shouts," Fool you do not understand the seriousness of this, DOOM is to ensure, a being who can take on the Irkens is surely a foe that will claim Earth as his own!"
Dib slanted his eyes, he asked while heading up to his room," Exactly what is it you mean by, another being who can take on the Irken, Zim?" Zim rushes by him, he replies," The Tallest have told me of this, yes my Tallest, they tell me that this being took them down with ease if this is true then I Zim will not take over the Earth before this being."
Dib quickly got in his way and shouts in Zim's face," How do I know this isn't just a ploy to get me to allow you in my room and allow you to touch my things so you can take over, huh, huh how do I know, huh?" He continues poking Zim, finally growing annoyed Zim shouts," Get your hands off of me you filthy earth creature, Zim would never lie if it was about him failing his mission to take over, as insane as the mighty Zim failing sounds it is true I would never say it!" Dib sighs as he opens his door and allows him in, he says," If it's not true I will get you for this….."
Zim wiped the remark away as he shoved the human aside, entering the room he noticed a whole bunch of pictures and posters of different paranormal things that he had recorded, shaking the creepy feeling away that was slowly climbing up his spine he says turning," Where is your telescope so that Zim may observe the said object he needs to see hmm?"
Dib growled as he said," It's right over here, but know this, use this to get the earth under your leaders controls and I won't hold back from my arsenal of weaponry at my disposal." Zim smirked into his face as he says," Zim will do as he pleases Dib beast; you best remember that in your mammoth sized head." Dib growled as he said clenching his teeth," It's not that big!"
Zim rolled his eyes before turning to the telescope, pulling at several switches he tried to get it to work, frustrated he began whacking it with his head trying to get it to work, Dib shoved him aside as he typed in a pass code on the terminal nearby to it, the box which was sealed rather tight was now expanded out as it stretched out before circling itself, extending out several meters before stopping outside of his window.
Zim snatching the telescope quickly began to adjust the high powered telescope to the necessary coordinates for the Massive's closest destination, his eyes widened in surprises as he eyes laid upon the damaged and badly wrecked ship he had always worshipped as if it were the grandest in the fleet of its cruisers, which was now lying in a field of debris from countless other Irken Ships. Nearby however his eyes caught glimpse of a long and black ship, several strange cannons extended from its side, along the top extended one of the longest cannons Zim had ever seen on any vessel of war, it was hard to make out much other details other than the rough edges that jutted of.
Pulling away from the telescope he says under his breath," This doesn't look good, what type of ship is that, I do not recall a ship that is designed like that to have ever been recorded." Dib barely hearing him looks through his telescope as well, he however could only get a glimpse of the destroyed Massive along with its debris.
Dib adjusted the angle trying to get a better view of the ship, his monitor however not reaching far enough to see anything other than its main hull and scattered pieces. Turning Dib says," I take it that is your leaders ship then, well it seems the mighty Irkens aren't exactly prepared for everything are they Zim?"
Zim instantly snapped his eyes towards him, hissing he says," How dare you insult the Irkens, they are not dumb humans, we are a far superior race one that shall not be trifled with so easily, Zim will take the being responsible all on his own and destroy him, for Zim is the greatest and none can defeat the Almighty Zim!"
Dib growled as he said," I don't care about you or your race, my dad may have invited you into our house because he doesn't know anything about my life, but he thought it would somehow make me happy if you were there, of course I hate everything about you and will expose you for the evil alien you are, what I have seen shows me that you're not the great almighty race you thought you were, your just a sad race looking for attention and I will stop you before you can conquer our planet!"
Zim chuckled as he said," Ah but you have failed to the mighty Zim before, so there is nothing you can do to scare Zim into believing you can defeat him." Dib rolled his eyes before saying," I beat you all the time Zim, since when have you beaten me with anything involving your goal to take over the planet?" Zim replies," That is merely fair sportsmanship, if Zim wanted to beat you he would."
Dib shoves Zim out of his room as he says," Just stay out of my room, you can deal with this problem on your own, as far as I'm concerned this problem only effects your takeover of our planet." Zim spins around as he walks down the stairs; he guessed that would happen seeing as how they were mortal foes and all, it would be a pleasure to destroy him in time.
As Zim continued walking he was stopped as Gaz appeared in front of him, she says," So someone beat up your tallest ship huh?" Zim asks," What who told you this, what would make you think the mighty Irkens could fall to someone, are you plotting with the mammoth head!" Gaz rolls her eyes as she says slanting them," Um I can hear through the walls idiot, you guys were shouting loud enough."
Zim sighs as he says," Yes it is true, however it is only a fluke, the mighty Zim is sure that the being caught the Tallest off guard so they can beat him when they need too, and Zim will destroy him for his attempt to takedown the Irkens, for there is none that can takedown the mighty ZIM!" After shouting his name Gaz shutters in annoyance before saying," Zim that is stupid, that being beat your tallest because he could, if you're going to take him down, it certainly isn't going to be easy."
Zim growls as he says leaning closer," How dare you insult the Tallest like that, how could this being possibly be better than them, they are the leaders who have taken it upon themselves to conquer the universe and you say that they cannot beat this one man alone?" Gaz glares directly at him as she says," I am never wrong Zim, your leaders will not beat him this being obviously has better fighting capabilities and has trained longer in combat, he won because he is better than them, just like I am better then you."
Zim slant his eyes again as he says," How dare you address yourself higher then Zim, Zim is much better then all humans, you may not be like the rest of the smelly pig heads but that does not make you better than me!" She smirks as she replies," your right, being better then you just makes me better then you, now go complain about it to your leaders." Zim says to himself," Zim can't believe she thought she was better than me, sure it was practically true, but Zim would never admit to such a thing!" flinging the door outwards he exits the home heading back to his base.
Sorry for not updating in a while, this story kind of ran out of ideas with me, but after some thinking I was able to finish this one and got the fifth one started, hopefully it will be updated soon, sorry for waiting so long!
