~Cari


Tabitha's POV.

I woke up groggily with a head ache and rolled over to see what time it was, 7:15 Am, huh ok WAIT 7:15! IRIS!

I jumped out of my bed and sprinted down the stairs colliding with someone half way down, "Zim get out of my way!" I snapped at him. He looked happy, sad, disappointed but hopeful. Damn he's a seriously confusing guy.

"She's gone Tab," He said softly making my heart break.

"But, but I didn't get to say goodbye," I said with shocked, wide eyes.

"She left a little more than an hour ago," Zim said slowly hoping not to evoke my wrath.

"How would you know that?" I growled and grabbed him by the shoulders seeing as he wasn't wearing a shirt.

"Because I got up to say goodbye, she said she'd come back in three months," He said with a blank stare.

"Why didn't you wake me up?" I screeched and shook him slightly.

"You would've killed me if you knew what I did." He said back making my eyes widen.

"What have you done! Where is she!?" I screamed and moved my hands up to his neck to choke him.

"I kissed her," He said like it was nothing.

"You dumb ass! How could you now she's probably confused beyond all belief and even more petrified of men then she was before!"

"She didn't seem scared while she was kissing me back," He taunted and quirked an eye brow at me. My eye's narrowed at him but I hesitantly let go of his neck.

"You're lucky I wasn't awake or I would've beheaded you." I hissed and shoved him to the side. I turned my wrist watch so I was in my normal Irken form and screamed, "GIR!" The little robot flew down at light speed after that and stopped by me much to Zim's surprise.

"Come with me, I'm going to the training course and you are going to practice with me."

"You're pretty!" Gir squealed.

"Yes Gir I know oh how I know now get!" I yelled back and shot a glare over to Zim.

"Don't touch anything."

"I was actually going to go see what I can salvage from my crashed Voot cruiser." He mumbled back and slowly walked by me, "By the way, Iris made coffee before she left, it's still hot in the pot if you want some."

"Thanks," I grumbled and walked slowly to my kitchen. Zim wasn't lying when he said there was still and almost full pot. I grabbed a cup and saw something shiny on the counter. I filled my cup with coffee and turned around to see a small locket like thing with the picture of Cari and Zim on their fourth anniversary. "Did you show this to her?" I growled at Zim as he walked by slowly.

"Yes," He responded calmly.

"I made a huge mistake by letting you into my house Zim, a huge one." I groaned as he grabbed his locket thing.

"You did me a huge favor and I will get my mate back Tab, I love her too much to let her go." He growled back at me before shoving the locket in his pocket and walking off towards the sliding glass door.

"I never said you didn't," I shot back before grabbing Gir, my cup of coffee and a black coat to go train in. I still had to be ready for anything.

Narrator's POV.

Iris's blue and black jeep pulled down a gravely drive way after an exhausting 10 hours of driving. She parked by a large horse pasture and popped her door open to be greeted by a larger man with piercing green eyes. He had black shaggy hair and ivory skin with a suspicious sun ray smile.

"I'm Dave and I'm guessing you're Iris?" He asked while sticking his hand out towards her.

She took his hand warmly and shook it gently, "Yes I am Iris, it's nice to meet you Dave."

"Ditto, do you have any bags you need me to take?" He asked nicely.

"Actually yeah. I have about six bags so if you could take three I'll get the others, that'd be great." She said and went to open the trunk. She popped open the trunks door to see all six large suit cases and the small white bear on top.

"Looks like you've got an admirer." Dave joked and pointed to the cute but strange looking bear.

"An old friend gave it to me, but I didn't put it there, it was up in the front seat last time I checked. Hmm oh well." Iris said and took the bear into her arms. She grabbed a suit case with her left hand and handed another suit case to Dave with her right.

"So how long do you plan on job hunting up here?" Dave asked trying to make conversation.

"Until I score a job here or until I get home sick and go back to Tabitha," Iris answered as she grabbed another bag.

"Alright well let me show you to your room." Dave said with the two large suit cases in his arms. He waddled into his small wooden house with Iris following swiftly after and walked down a series of hallways until he ended at a back bedroom.

The bed room had a large queen sized bed with dark green covers over it. The pillows where white as was the small wooden desk at the head of the bed. There was a large closet on the far right side opposite from the bed but other than that it was a pretty small room. "Here you are, make yourself at home and I'll go get the rest of your bags." Dave said and waved her in.

"Thank you Dave," She said nicely. Dave nodded and walked back out of the room and down the hall ways back to the car.

Iris grabbed the bags Dave left for her by the door and moved them over onto the bed. She set the bear down on the small desk and unzipped some of her bags. "Here you go miss, I'll let you alone to unpack and just ring if you need anything." Dave said coming back in with the other bags.

"Ok and thank you again for letting me stay here, I really appreciate it." Dave nodded before leaving Iris to her peace.

She turned around and gasped when she saw her bear sitting on one of her suitcases. "What the hell I put you on the table." She shrugged off the creepiness and set the bear down on her bed pillows. After wards she continued to unpack her things and get settled in.

Unknown to Iris, Dave was walking out to his barn and pressing a button to make a large elevator jut out of the ground. He stepped into the elevator and it sucked him down for a minute or so before landing in a large lab looking area.

"I knew Tabitha would be this oblivious," He said to himself and turned his wrist watch. Suddenly a fat Irken with large green eyes appeared with a devious grin on his face.

He walked over to his largest computer and typed in a few things before the screen blinked to life and two very tall Irkens appeared on said screen. "Dave what do you want!? You're interrupting snack time dammit!" The large purple one yelled.

"My sincerest apologies my tallest but I have information I believe you would love to have." Dave said back and bowed praying for forgiveness.

"We're listening…" The tall red one said as he munched on a doughnut.

"Princess Cari is in my base. She will be here for a little while." Dave said and grinned at his tallest's more than happy expressions.

"This is intriguing. Thank you Dave you will be rewarded for this massive discovery." Tallest Red said with an evil grin.

"May I ask one thing, my tallest?" Dave asked in a weak voice. He didn't exactly want to be murdered by his tallest today.

"Go on," Purple said through a mouthful of snacks.

"What are you planning on doing with the princess; if she comes back you'll be over thrown?"

"Yes Dave that is very true. That is why she will be exterminated." Red grinned back to the lowly Irken.

"Do you need me to do anything?" Dave asked feebly. He did not like his tallest staring at him like that.

"Keep her in the house and make sure she can't fight back." Red growled and cut the call before Dave could respond. He sighed in relief happy that he didn't have to talk to his tallest anymore. He started wondering what his reward would be, 'maybe I'll get my own planet to rule,' he thought in excitement and rushed back off to the house.

Tabitha's POV.

I struck down another tree with a round house kick to its side. "Gir, attack mode!" I ordered and his eyes turned red and serious.

"Yes mistress," He saluted.

"Take down targets nine, twenty six, and three." I commanded. A small rocket launcher appeared out of Gir's wrist and pointed to the said numbered trees. He launched only two of the rockets and took out all three trees anyways.

"Very good Gir, but we're going to try for only one shot. Again!" I shouted and he did so. His one rocket took out two of the trees and made a hole in the third but it didn't fall over. "You're showing promise Gir, this is good."

"Yeay pretty lady likes me!" Gir squealed and ran around in circles.

"Focus Gir! You are now going to be my Co guard but you absolutely have to listen to me, understand?" I said harshly to the little guy.

"Yes my mistress!" Gir said and saluted.

"Call me partner; Zim is your master, not me." I said with a sweet smile.

"Ok…partner," Gir said and crazily smiled over at me.

"DAMMIT!" A loud yell filled the air as Tabitha rolled her eyes.

"I wonder what the idiot hurt himself on now."

"Shall we go see?" Gir asked obediently.

"Yes I think we should, just in case." I sighed and picked Gir up. He crawled up onto my shoulder to look out as I slowly walked over to the hill clearing.

It shimmered beautifully in the sunlight as the grass swayed in the wind. Near the edge of the field Zim was under his Voot cruiser working on it. He was cursing under his breath and working on the control panel.

"What did you do this time?" I asked with a small sigh. He scooted out from under the thing with a white sleeveless shirt I gave him to use on. It was covered in oil much to my distaste but so was his face which was pretty funny.

"Nothing, but there's something in here that is making it difficult to start up my cruiser. I think it's a bug but I can't tell." He said back.

"Are you kidding me a measly bug, just smash it." I scoffed.

"Really Tab, you have been away from Irk for too long, I'm talking about like a computer bug. Something that causes a virus in my cruiser so it won't start but I can't reach it. It's some kind of device." He snapped back and slid back under his Voot cruiser.

"Let me try to reach it," I demanded.

"You're shorter than me," He said in a matter of fact voice.

"Do I look like I care?" I spat and grabbed his leg.

"Whoa!" he said when I drug him out far enough to where I could get under the thing.

I slid under it and saw what he was talking about. It was a very small black circular thing. I reached up for it but the brim of the cruiser stopped me from reaching my hand any farther up then a good six inches away from it. "Son of a-."

"Told you," Zim said happily knowing he won with something against me. It's pretty hard to do now a days.

"Shut up Zim, get Gir under here," I demanded.

"He just ripped his arms off and ran off demanding tacos. I don't even know where he went."

"Are you kidding me!" I shouted.

"No…." Zim said back pointedly.

"That god damned robot. Ok well push me under more and when I say pull me out you better or I'll cut your man hood off."

"I can't push you any farther without having the cruiser crush you. Or I would've done that with myself ages ago."

"Are you trying to make this difficult for me?" I yelled at him as oil dripped onto my face. Zim grabbed my leg and drug me out to glare at me.

"Just let me try again," He said angrily and crossed his arms.

"Fine if you think you're so good." I spat and stood up. Zim sighed and crawled under it again.

"Ok, I might be able to reach it if I lift the cruiser a little bit higher. Do you think you could hold it up if I lift it?" He asked from under it.

"I don't know, let's find out but how do you plan on lifting it?" I said with a shrug.

"Well I'm about to find out," He grumbled and flipped over under the cruiser. "Are you ready?"

"As ready as I'll ever be," I called back and grasped the brim of the thing.

"Ok, here we go." He said and it started slowly lifting up, "Ok grab it now or my back is going to break."

"I've got it!" I said and struggled to hold it up. These things were heavy!

"Give me three seconds!" Zim called.

"You have two and a half." I shouted loudly struggling against its weight.

"I've almost got it!" He shouted.

"Three, two!"

"Got it!" He yelled and slid out quickly right as I dropped the cruiser.

"God that thing was heavy," I panted, "Did you lift that with your back?!"

"Yeah…" He said slowly and quirked an eye brow at me, "Why?"

"No wonder Cari liked you. You must've been working out for like five years to lift that thing!"

"Or I've just been working, unlike you who just sits around with Cari and watches TV all day."

"Shut up I've been training all day today."

"Suuurrreeee…" He said with a roll of his eyes. "Now let's see what this sucker is."

I sat down next to him and looked at the device with a shocked face, "Zim…that's a tracking device…"

I looked up into his shocked and pale face, "I know and I know why it's here. We need to call Iris right now." He said and got up. He just left me behind and started sprinting back home leaving me to hurry after him.

"Why what's it for!?" I called.

Narrator's POV.

"Hey there Iris, getting comfortable?" Dave said from Iris's room door. He looked flustered and under a lot of pressure.

"Yes, I'm getting along just fine. Thanks." She said back with a smile. She was studying a business book and looking for houses on the internet.

"Good, good. Well it's getting late so I'm gonna hit the hay. See you later!" He said back quickly and rushed out of her room.

"Ok…that was weird." Iris mumbled to herself and stood up. She walked over to the window and looked out to see the sun setting. Her phone rang on the desk making it shake so she walked over to pick it up.

"Hello?" Iris asked oblivious to the fact that an Irken soldier was sneaking up right behind her.

"Iris you need to get out of there right now!" Zim shouted on the other line.

"Zim what are you talking about I-," She turned around to come face to face with the solider. A scream broke out through the house as the phone hung up, being crushed by the soldier. Iris fell to the hard wooden floor unconscious after being smacked hard with a baton on the side of her head.

"Iris…IRIS!" Zim screamed into the phone in an utter panic.
