Disclaimers: IT'S FIXED! I hope… I hope this one is easier to read and I am working on the 10th chapter as we speak. Yup. And I know Sek is a freak of nature… but can you please not flame me for it? I'm in enough pain as it is. Oh and to Aubreychu… YOU'RE A BITCH! No one made you read this. So you have no write to call me a freak. Okay… enjoy!

            Sek kicked her boots up onto the desk. She smiled and sighed. Everything was going to plan. Except for the Tallest weren't cooperating, and it was starting to make her angry. She was angry at her parents… that's why they're no longer living. She twitched slightly figuring out what she would have to do… and how long it was going to take to break them. Red had already been staring at her like some mindless baboon. Ah, the joys of being female. You have the power of the universe in your grasp, the gentle breaking of hears comes with your flow of tears, the click of your heels signifies your commitment to the world. (A/N: I feel very feminist right now. -.-;;) She wasn't going to be in a relationship shortly after this, no. She would be the most feared woman in all Irken history. She looked over at the two separated Tallest.

            Purple hadn't stopped staring at Red. You could see in his deep violet eyes that he was yearning for another kiss… another touch… one last touch. Sek almost spat at him when he looked over at her and she felt the horrible pain that he was feeling. She simply shrugged it off and continued to think about how she was going to break them when her lavender eyes wandered over to Red.

            He had been curled in a small fetal position for days and hadn't moved. It seemed as if his body had stopped living and he was only alive in his mind. His eyes were blank, his antenna were drooped. He seemed to be in the worst state of depression known to Irkens. You could feel that he also yearned for a kiss or a touch from Purple. But Sek had warned them that they would be shot to bits in a matter of seconds if they touched each other.

            Red and Purple had moved themselves as far away from Sek as they could. They could feel the waves of hate seething off of her… and they wanted nothing of it. They each longed for each others touch and wished that Zim and Dib could help them with their defective daughter. But none of this would come true. They were going to have to give up the Irken Empire… and they wouldn't know what would happen after that. They'd probably be killed. Thrown out the air lock like useless Invaders.

            The silence was eating away at Sek's mind. She knew she wouldn't be able to last long under these conditions. Silence… emotions… the silent cries of help. She sighed and stood up with her gun in her hands.

            "Alright. I want you two to give me 3," She held up three fingers to make sure they understood. "…reasons why you won't give me the Irken Empire." She said holstering her gun and placing her hands on her hips in waiting. They exchanged glances, and then Purple stood up.

            "Sek, we will not let you have the Empire because of 3 things. You have committed murder, of your own parents no less. You have placed the Tallest under house arrest, and by your native home's code, you are denying us the freedom of choice." Purple said. (A/N: *claps for Purples speech* He spent a good deal of time on that.)

            "My parents? House arrest? Freedom of *choice*?" She screamed the last word so loud it echoed in the small room.

            "Yes, and we believe that it isn't fair to keep us locked up in here like slaves." Red said standing for the first time in under a week. Sek's eyes bulged out of her head.

            "You can't be serious!" Sek yelled in amazement as the two Tallest walked over to each other and joined hands.

            "I will not allow this!" Sek shrieked. Nothing she was trying was working. She sighed angrily and then regained her temper.

            "Here's what I'll do for you. I'm going to let you stay in your room… alone. ONLY. Anywhere else is strictly prohibited. I want to do something anyway… This silence is driving me insane." Sek said getting out of the room.

            Purple and Red still sat where they were. The pain of each other would be too great and they would break down. They knew both of them would. Purple sighed and Red broke into tears. Purple rushed over and hugged him close. They both started to cry from fear and relief at the same time.

            "Purkle… what are we going to do?" Red said snuggling up to Purple's touch.

            "I don't know, Red. We'll have to be strong together and we'll have to live. Staying alive right now is the most important thing." Purple said hugging Red close.

            "How can we live when we know that she's just going to kill us to get what she wants?" Red asked with a whining tone in his voice.

            "That I don't know. But at least we have our privacy back. That's all we need right now, our privacy and our love for one another. Right?" Purple asked placing his chin on top of Red's head.

            "Right. Our love for one another." Red agreed placing a simple claw over Purple's claw.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

            WHY? Why the heck did I leave them alone!? HOW COULD I HAVE BEEN SO STUPID?! Sek mentally screamed and bashed herself. She was extremely pissed off that she had left the Tallest alone… with open communication… and open minds. She would have to break them immediately. She could sense that love vows were being made and it made her sick. She retched and stomped back to her labs to finish the hallucinogen. This was going to be a degrading victory… sweet yet degrading.

            "I hope that we can just stay… Irkens. No more babies…" She growled. But deep down in her heart, she had not accepted that she was half human for being born on earth... and she didn't know that she had some human organs. (A/N: If you can't figure out what they are *ladies* then you need some serious help. .)

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

            Sek strode back into the Tallest's room to see them simple snuggled up with each other... sleeping. She rolled her eyes and aimed her gun. 'I could just kill them now and take over the Irken Empire by force...' But Sek stopped herself realizing that they were needed for a while longer. She lowered her gun and sighed. 'Let them sleep, child. You can break them soon enough... you need to find their ultimate weakness.' A small voice whispered in her ear. She nodded curtly and strode out of the room again, turning around one last time and looking at the Tallest.

            "I am deeply sorry... but when one has goals and dreams... then one will do anything for one's goals and dreams." She said with sadness. "Dream sweetly while you can..." She said with malice and then giggled as she walked out of the room. The door swished close behind and she walked down the halls of the Massive.

            She walked down to the kitchen area and dismissed all the cooks for large amounts of moneys in return. She smiled and began to make a morning meal for the two unfortunate Tallest. She added the hallucinogen into the foods... she would get them alone when the drug hit their relatively small brains.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

            The Tallest awoke to see a large breakfast laid out before them. Red was starving so he dove right into the food and began to chow down. Purple paused to see if Red would keel over dead... but he didn't, so Purple began to dig in as well. Sek noticed that Red had eaten first... 'Good...' She thought. This wouldn't be so hard with the one she liked.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

            Red had begun to feel a little funny after breakfast. He decided he should read it off, so he stumbled down to the library. He found his favorite book and laid down on the couch to read it. He was absorbed in the wonderfully written novel about the fictions of the Tallest love lives, so absorbed that he didn't notice someone sneak into the library and walk around to find the Prophesy book. He heard nothing until a book slammed onto the ground and Red whirled around to see a shorter Purple standing there. He was sure that Purple hated it here... what was he doing with the Prophesy book? Red set down his book and stood, still feeling a bit woozy.

            "Purkle? What are you doing here? I thought you hated the library." Red said catching himself on the red velvet couch behind him.

            "Red, I was just looking for you. I wanted to talk to you about Sek..." Purple said with a malicious smile on his face. Red sat back down on the couch.

            "Really?" Red asked. Purple nodded. "I think her breakfast made me sick... I feel dizzy." Red said almost passing out this time. Purple pulled a vial out of one of his belts.

            "This'll help. Promise." Purple said with a coy smile. The liquid was a hazy red color, almost pink. But not quite. Red smiled in thanks and took the vial. He drank the whole thing in one gulp and sighed happily as the dizziness and Purple came in full focus. Red growled, realizing how much he wanted Purple. Red stood and kissed Purple deeply. Purple pulled away.

            "Are you sure you want to do this? What about the whole baby thing? What if it happens again?" Purple asked with a look of concern on his face. Red paused, but then he felt uncomfortable. His 'elbow*' was bugging him.

            "We can take care of it. Maybe it will destroy Sek." Red said kissing Purple hungrily. "Purple" sighed mentally. 'Perfect...' He thought.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

            Red woke the next morning with a horrible headache, but he was laying in front the library fireplace. He smiled through the headache as he felt an Irken arm over his chest. The thoughts of Purple came back to him... but then so did a female voice shouting his name.

            "Shit..." He muttered. He shot up, forgetting about the headache, and looked behind him. Sek laid there covered in Red's skirt. She snoozed silently with a smile on her face. Red wondered how this happened... he remembered kissing Purple... cuddling Purple... but hearing a female voice. He grabbed his skirt away and pulled it over his waist. It hung low over his hips. But then it suddenly hit him.

            Flashback of the night before...

            "Are you sure you want to do this? What about the whole baby thing? What if it happens again?" Purple asked him almost crying.

            "We can take care of it. Maybe it will destroy Sek." Red said capturing Purple's lip.

            "I want a baby..." Purple sighed.

            "Me too... I'll give you one. And we can raise it together behind Sek's back." Red replied.

            END

            "Mother of Irk... I'm going to have another kid..." Red whispered to himself. "Purple will never find out. We'll birth the baby... and give it up for adoption." Red assured himself. He nodded and Sek woke and sat next to him.

            "I can see why Purple loves you so much." She said with a malicious smile. "That was amazing." She said getting up and putting on all her clothes. She clipped up her boots and began to walk out. She turned around and placed a hand over her stomach.

            "I hope you love our child with that same kind of passion." She smiled and walked out the door. Red moaned.

            "What am I going to tell Purple?"

*- In "Bio-Engineered Bundles of Joy" the Tallest commented that Zim had an elbow that didn't quit. Irkens mate by elbows... Yeah...

You can flame me... I know I deserve it. But... I might be able to fix this... just might. SORRY!!!! .;;;
