Chapter Seven
As the strange greenish glow filled the windows of her home, part of Gaz wanted to look out the windows to see what it was; the other half wanted to run and... get a weapon! But she couldn't move. She was rooted to the spot with horror and shock, still staring at the body of her father. After a few moments, through the corner of her eye she noticed a space ship flying up to the window to hover there. She caught a glimpse of the familiar insignia on the bottom of the space ship, the insignia that matched the welt on the back of her neck. By now, she noticed that welt was tingling worse than ever, in fact the itching was becoming unbearable, but she did not scratch it.
She couldn't move her arms.
As the space ship slowly but steadily drew up to the window, a port seamlessly opened and a dark figure appeared in the doorway it made. The expression on its face was so cold and grim, so different from the one Gaz remembered, that at first she did not even realize who it was.
Zim.
At this point the window of the house opened, and Gaz found herself floating, much against her will, through it. Even though they were both dead, she could only think of screaming for her father and Dib to come and save her. But she couldn't scream, and that wasn't all she couldn't do, she couldn't move, she couldn't struggle; she couldn't speak, she couldn't threaten. She couldn't even control her own breathing any more. The space ship was exerting so much force over her that her breathing was now even and regular, an insult to the rage and terror running riot through her brain.
"Welcome to your future, human slave," Zim spoke, in a voice Gaz had never heard him use before. "When I could make you kiss me first, that's when I knew you were mine. Did you notice that little token I left on you? That's how we mark our property. The closer an Irken vessel comes to you, the more it will tingle. Until you enter this ship, that is. Once you set foot on this ship, it will stop tingling. Makes you want to come aboard, doesn't it?" Zim grinned invitingly.
"But after that," Zim continued, "everything's different. If you ever leave Irken property, it will start to tingle again, and the farther away from Irken territory you go, the more it will tingle, until it starts to itch, and then sting, and then finally, burn. If you go far enough away, or stay away long enough, it will drive you insane. It has done so before. That's how it works.
Your brother could have told you this, and in fact I'm sure he did: we Irkens are slave traders, always have been. We prowl the universe looking for races on other planets to serve us, and so they should because they are all inferior." Does this surprise you? It shouldn't. Dib certainly told told you, he never could keep his big mouth shut. I'll say this much for him though, he put up a good fight. A lot more than his father did, that's for sure." A cruel smirk curved that flat mouth and the eyes narrowed, their color gleaming more intensely red as they did.
Gaz's eyes were now level with Zim's. "And now here's something else for you to remember," Zim continued. "Once an Irken takes you, human, you are Irken property forever.
"You were good, Gaz human. Your virginity inflamed my desire more than I dared to hope it would. You will satisfy me just like that again and again, and when I have taken my fill of you, I will sell you to an Irken brothel. By the time they're done with you, who knows, there may still be enough left of you to actually bring them something at the open slave market. Maybe. The Control Brain only knows where you will end up after that."
Gaz was now near enough that Zim could reach out and touch her. His long sharp claws slid in under her night gown, and those cold, those unnaturally cold hands began to molest her all over her most intimate parts. She could do nothing to stop it, she couldn't even scream. As that flat cold lipless mouth, this time unwelcome, pressed itself once more against hers, the welt on the back of Gaz's neck finally stopped tingling.
No one on earth was man enough to do it, but Gaz was finally taken.
And that's THE END!
