Waiting a few second to make sure they were gone, I finally closed the door.

"We should be leaving soon too."

"I know, but I have something to take care of first." I pulled my amulet out of my pocket. "She's been screaming at me since the last time she tried to take me over." I put the chain around my neck. "I suggest you get ready to catch me if needed."

Zim nodded.

I took a deep breath and let the crystal fall onto my chest. It glowed almost instantly and a sharp pain entered my head. I would've fallen to my knees if Zim hadn't held me up.

'Why did you ignore me?' The voice was doubled and angry.

'I didn't have time for your games!'

'My games? You body is as much mine as it is yours!'

'What're you talking about?'

'I am you! My name is Alem, I'm the opposite you!'

I was baffled. How could that be possible?

'I was your mother's twin in my last life, when she passed the amulet on to you, I became your twin.'

'So that's why you said it was in my blood!'

'Precisely!'

'Okay, okay... so I'm sorry I ignored you, I wasn't aware of all this.'

'Of course, I should've told you first.' The voice was back to normal now.

"'Alright, so now that we got that out of the way, let's work together on this.'

'Agreed.' The pain faded and she, Alem, was gone.

I huffed.

"Are you alright?"

"Huh? Oh! Yeah, I'm fine!" I stood up on my own and cleared my head. "Let's get going now."


I landed in a crouch and aimed another kick at a guard, sending him flying. Huffing, I stood and rubbed my neck, turning to Zim who was standing over the unconscious guards. "We're lucky, we've only come across a few guards and we're almost there."

"Yeah, I guess so, but it's still annoying."

I shrugged. "In any case, we should just have to go through this door and then down a hall and then though the door at the end of that one, then we're there.

He nodded. "Then let's go!"

I smiled and followed after him. WE both took a flying kick at the door and it knocked over. Using my Telekinetics, I made all the guards in the hall float up to the ceiling as we ran.

"That never ceases to amaze me."

I giggled. "It's not that hard to be amazed by my powers Zim..."

He smirked and pressed the button on his headset. "Dak! Pic! Are the bombs in place?"

"Yes sir!" They answered at the same time.

"Good, head back to the ship! We'll call you if we need you."

"We'll be waiting."

Zim took his finger off the button and we stopped about 10 meters before the door. "Ready to take over an Empire?"

"Only if you are."

His smirk grew. "Then let's go. Do you think you can do that trick with at the guards in there?"

"Without a problem."

"Perfect."

We ran at the door and kicked it down like we had done to the previous one. As we entered, all the guards flew up into the air and were pinned to the ceiling.

"What are you doing here? You're supposed to be dead!" Purple yelled out.

"You'll never kill us that easily! Besides, we're here to challenge you to a two on two battle for power over the throne!" I pointed at them. "There has been too many mistakes in the Empire for too long."

"We'll only honor your challenge if we play by the original one on one!" Red countered.

"Aww... that's too bad..." I pressed on the button on my headset. "Blow up the snack pod."

An explosion was heard in the distance, followed by a brown cloud of food.

That Tallest gaped.

We smirked. "Now, you will go along with our plans or the engines will be blown up, do you understand?"

The two taller Irkens nodded.

I released the hold I had on their guards and they all fell to the floor.
