Wow looks like Zim has a cellmate, hopefully they can find a way to escape.~L~

Walking into Nex's lab they found him standing by a chair fingers gently tapping it. "Please sit, Zim. This will be fun, I promise." Next purred patting the chair and wagging his finger on his other hand for him to come. The guards looked at each other confused, but didn't dare voice their opinion, quickly turning leaving Zim to the crazy scientist. He slowly walked over not to sure of where this always going, sitting down in the chair not wanting to tick him off. Nex's sadistic smirk grew his fingers gliding up his shoulder kneading it gently, this was odd behavior considering the scientist was anything, but gentle.

Ah there it was his claws dug into his shoulder leaving tiny red marks behind. He leaned down to him sliding his tongue over his cheek before he forced it into his mouth. Zim sat back not getting into it or rejecting it either, the last thing he needed was an angry scorned scientist on his hands. Nex pulled away tugging on his restraints wanting him to stand. Getting to his feet standing perfectly still as he watched the scalpel appeared in the mad scientist's hand. Slowly he dragged it down his side along his ribcage, index finger running over each one.

Zim hissed ever so slightly from the pain closing one eye trying to hold back his urge to knock the psycho out. After he was done playing he stitched him up licking the blood off. "I don't know how, but your tastes delicious just like the rest of you." Next purred putting the thread and needle back on the lab table behind him, the door opened Red and Purple entered looking Zim over. "Looks like you've done quite a bit since we saw him last, but it seems that you haven't slowed down on muscling up." Red said eying every inch of Zim's exposed skin finding it fascinating.

Zim turned to them with a smirk cracking his neck with a sigh. "Is that a brand I see?" Purple asked spying the Irken scientist symbol that was burned into his skin. "Yes well, Zim always wanted one. Zim wasn't expecting to get it in this manner, but it seems to be working out just fine." Zim exclaimed smirk growing as he looked over at Next finding a prideful smirk on his lips. Purple glanced at Red knowing that hooded glazed over look, and he felt a pang of slight jealousy, but he couldn't blame him either with how Zim was now.

"We're going to visit that spitfire you call a friend. Hopefully she can take some tips from you. I kinda like this new you. Keep it up, you might be out of here in a hundred years or so." Red said smoothly eying the symbol enviously before they turned to leave. Zim cocked husband head to the side with a sinister smirk waiting for the door to shut.

"Seems like someone has a crush. They really should be more careful with that." He said quietly turning to Nex, finding him glaring at the door. Zim knew he needed to do something to get him back to normal or Tak was going to have hell later. Cautiously he leaned down licking across his cheek. "I believe you are my favorite. No need to worry about the tallest." Zim purred turning on the charm hoping he could settle him down.

Nex relaxed a bit bringing a hand to Zim's back raking his claws down leaving long slender cuts, but not deep enough for stitches. Pulling back he made Zim sit gently rubbing the ointment over his new wounds. "They can't have you. I have decided I'm keeping you. You are most definitely my favorite." Nex said quietly smirk turning sadistic as he called the guards. Before they arrived he pulled Zim into another kiss, it made Zim's skin crawl but he closed his eyes picturing Dib instead.

They broke apart both breathing heavily, just as the guards entered the room. Zim stood walking over to them like nothing was going on. Once outside the guards looked him over curiously. "You look better this time around. Any reason for that?" Mun the red eyed guard asked looking thoroughly curious. Zim grinned widely knowing he could lie his way out of their curiosities.

"Well the tallest interrupted Nex in the middle of his studying. He wasn't to happy, but he did leave some lovely marks on my back for the interruption." He answered smoothly walking into his cell feeling the restraints release after the door closed. "We'll be back for you in a little while princess. Nex is going to have a field day with you." Zaks called over his shoulder as they walked out leaving the two prisoners alone.

"I see you have a couple new ones to add to your collection." Tak remarked walking closer to his cell cocking her hip to the side. Zim smirked walking over as well. "Nex won't abuse you too badly. Zim seems to be his favorite. With a little prodding Zim was able to calm him down so you don't get as damaged." Zim explained crossing his arms cocking his hip to the side as well.

"Have the tallest come to you yet?" He asked coolly finding his book plopping down on his cot wincing slightly. "Yes, those bastards did if I could have gotten out of here I would have ripped them apart." She hissed out angrily stomping her foot on the ground. Zim smirked at her watching her little temper tantrum.

"Would love to do that too, but first we have to get out of here and back to our humans." He said coolly flipping the page in his book. Tak stared at him blinking once, twice before her face went from anger to shock. "There's no way you and him are together!" She snapped out in shock staring at him in wide eyed disbelief. Zim looked up from his book smirk not faltering once.

"Well it was the heat of the moment kind of battle between us like usual that started it. He just thought of the stupidest way to escape is all, but Zim found that he liked it." Zim explained with a blush looking fro the side embarrassed. "Zim, tell me what happened?" Tak asked with a sigh flopping down on her cot too. He glanced back at her with a heavy sigh.

"It started for the Dib last year after he saw Zim shirtless, after he started acting odd. The usual insults thrown had become more perverse and the almighty Zim never backs down to a challenge so he learned them as well. Little did Zim know he was doing some kind of flirt thing. It finally came to a boiling point for the Dib after Zim learned what was going on. He m have prodded a bit much, and the Dib proposed a battle. During the battle Zim had lost his shirt and things got extremely close, that's when he kissed Zim." Zim paused staring down at the floor taking a long breath. Closing his book and sitting up figuring he couldn't focus on reading anyways.

"The Monday after was extremely awkward for the both of us. He even went so far as to wear a blood colored shirt after a comment Zim had made. Zim couldn't take it slipping away from him and then the Gaz found Zim asking about the kiss. At the time Zim didn't know what to think of it, but now Zim thinks he could learn to enjoy it." Zim finished staring down at the floor his magenta orbs clouded with many emotions but mostly sadness. The main doors opened signaling the guards return for Tak.

"Remember stay calm and think of what you want to do while you're stuck in that cell." He whispered snatching his book up going back to his reading like he had been ignoring her. Tak took a deep calming breath before walking over to the door waiting for them to unlock it. Seeing that she had calmed down they opened the door gently taking her arms leading her away. Zim watched them lead her out if the room. He sighed in relieve that she hadn't taken one of them out yet. Ten minutes later the doors opened to his surprise Red floated over to his cell without Purple, this wasn't good.
