Sorry for the late update, I had the block of the writer. But as reward for the long wait, I am releasing an extra long chapter. Have a fine read, my very few readers. This one will also bring other favorite characters back into the story plot some. But I'm still sorry to those who think I'm too stuck on Steven, and Alyson, but I have to do a lot of back-story on them, because they are original characters. So you won't know a thing about them. Sorry guys, and gals.
Disclaimer: Do any of you people seriously think I own all of these cartoons? I really doubt it that the cartoon owners are going to come on my story, and say "Hey! This writer stole my cartoon, and didn't give me credit! I'm going to sue him for $5,000,000!" Do you think that will happen? Well on with the story.
Alyson POV
Somethings up with Steven, I just know there is. I just can't put my finger on it. I finally gave up, and asked him "Hey Steven, what's up?" He looked at me, looked away, and continued walking. 'Something's definitely up.' I thought. I caught up with him, and stopped him right there. "Tell me what's wrong right now, or I swear by the cybertronics in my arms, and legs that I will make you." I told him in a deadly tone that left no room for question. He looked at me, and said "That girl went into my head, and looked at my memories... I just can't figure out which ones..." With that said he continued walking onward, leaving me tostand there dumbfounded. 'She looked into his memories! What did she see?' I thought as a million questions sped throughout my mind. But my thoughts were interrupted by Steven chuckling while saying "Hey, you coming, or do you really like that mail box?" This confused me, I looked up at him with a confused look, but I looked back at where I was looking, and saw a mail box. I laughed while I got up, and went back to where Steven was. We continued walking in silence, but in a better mood.
15 minutes later,
We stopped walking outside a hotel. "This where we're staying?" I asked him. He nodded, and said "Got a better place in mind?" I shrugged, and walked on in. He soon followed, and we went up to the check-in desk. We looked at the desk clerk, it was a woman in her late 30's, or early 40's, Steven walked up, and said "1 room please." She eyeballed us, looking us over carefully like we were holding a body bag. "Do you have identification, or the cash to pay for this room, or are you expecting me to just give the keys out?" Steven raised an eye brow at this, and looked her in the eye, and said "Do I look like I own an ID?" She shook her head, and said "No, no you don't. But what about the money needed to pay for the room?" Steven sighed, and reached into his pocket. 'She's really annoyed him...' I thought partially annoyed. Steven then pulled out a tranculizer gun, and shot her in the shoulder with it. He then jumped over the desk, and grabbed the keys to a room at random. We then went to the elevator, and looked at the room number, 13-B, and looked at the floor numbers. There was 13 floors, Steven looked at me, and said "Knowing our luck, lets try floor 13." He hit the button, and there it was right in front of the door, room 13-B. We went in, and closed the door. In the room, there was only one queen sized bed with very nice covers on it, silk I think. We looked at each other, and yelled at the exact same time "I GET LEFT!" I screamed, as Steven yelled "I GET RIGHT!" We looked at each other for a full minute, before bursting out laughing. Steven went to a Pizza Hut, and got dinner. We ate dinner, and he went to take a shower, while I watched some bad TV shows on the bed. When he got out, I went, and took a shower too. When I got out Steven was watching 'Powerpuff Girls D' on Indie TV. I shook my head, and joined him while thinking 'Big bad demon watching Powerpuff Girls D... How cute!' I lied down next to him, and watched it with him. After 8 episodes of it we got tired, and went to sleep for the night.
Cyborg POV
We were half-way back to the tower when I remembered something. 'Uh oh...' I thought. "Guys! Guys, we need to go back." I yelled at my teammates. Beastboy looked down at me in confusion. I looked over at Raven, and I said "We forgot Zim, and the others! Remember them?" Raven, and Beastboys eyes widened in realization, but as we were turning back, I saw Danny, and his... I'll go with sister, flying through the air carrying two people. It reminded me we had yet to really talk to them. 'We'll have to question them, and the other two when Robin's stable.' I thought. Zim was struggling to break free from Danny, while screaming "Let go of me human stink-pig! Let go of Zim NOW! You will drop me this instant!" Danny looked down at Zim, and asked "Zim, have you looked down?" You could tell by the look on Zims face that he had not. "Why would I want to look at the ground you stupid human!" Dannys eyes narrowed as he grabbed Zims head, and made him look down. "Oh, he he... That's why." Suddenly Zims eyes widened in anger, he looked back at Danny with a burning rage in his eyes. "WHY DID YOU NOT TELL ZIM THIS! DO YOU WANT THE AMAZING ZIM TO BREAK FREE, AND FALL TO HIS DOOM!" Danny looked at Zim, and said "At this point... Yes, yes I do." This just added to Zims raging fury, causing him to scream louder, his scream was load enough that I imagine the people 500 ft. below at that heavy metal dance party would complain about the noise. I simply shook my head, and we waited for them to catch up, and then turned back towards the tower, and flew towards it.
Zim POV
Why these pitiful humans are taking me to giant earth letter, I could not tell. But as we got closer to this abomination, I could tell it was a building. "Pitiful humans! Your uncomplicated building designs just prove who the superior species is! For you could not come up with an original design, so you copied your own letter as an idol to your immeasurable stupidity!" I mocked. The metal human turned around slowly, and looked me in the eye, anger evident. "What did you say about our home?" I glared at his stupidity. "The great Zim will not bother to waste his precious time to repeat a sentence to such a pitiful life-form. Especially one uglier then the rest of his species!" I screamed in anger, and annoyance. "Arg! That does it! Let me at him!" He screamed trying to run towards me. "Ha, ha, ha, oooh, you pitiful fool, you can not run in the air, for there is nothing for you to propel yourself with! Now, stop pestering Zim you filthy earth-pig!" I screamed triumphantly, praising myself for mocking the earth-monkeys.
Tak POV
My right eye twitched in annoyance as Zims mocking, and insults got louder, and louder by the moment. We soon arrived at their "home", as they called it. I walked in, and stood there looking around for an escape point, yet sadly I could not find one. I looked at the center of the room, and saw a large sitting area. I sighed, and walked over, and sat at the sitting area. I looked over at Zim who was currently marching around the room looking in every doorway, and ventilation duct trying to find a escape route. I sighed, and closed my eyes thinking of a way out of this. 'Call Mimi!' I thought in realization, I pulled out my PAKs communicator, and called Mimi. "Mimi, report!" I watched Mimi you have to trace this signals location, and come, and get me!" She saluted, and cut transmission. I smiled, and sighed in relaxation, as I sat back, and relaxed as I waited for Mimi to show up.
Batman POV
I landed on the roof, and brought out two hover stretchers, and put Starfire on one, and Robin on the other. I pushed them into the elevator, and went to the fifth floor medi-bay. I took a sample of Robins blood, and simply put Starfire on a bed, and put some pain killer in her till Cyborg showed up to deal with her. I took the blood sample over to the micro-scope, and looked at it to try, and figure out what kind of poison was killing him. After a few minutes, Cyborg came in. I looked up from the micro-scope. "Go take care of Starfire." I told him. He nodded, and went to tend to her wounds. I looked back at the blood sample, but I couldn't find anything that would tell me if he was poisoned. I went, and took a look at his wound, and saw that it had a black, and red sludge forming around the wound, so I took a sample of it as well, and started looking at it through the micro-scope.
Alyson POV
I was awoken by the most beautiful music I had heard in a long time. I looked around, and noticed that Steven wasn't in the bed, or in the room. So I got up, and went into the living room, the music seemed like it was coming from the other room. I was surprised that this hotel had a second room, and every thing, but I never went in there. When I walked in, I saw Steven playing a grand piano that was there. He was playing Moonlight Nocturne perfectly. 'We must have gotten one of the expensive rooms, odd it would be an unlucky number on an unlucky floor.' I thought. I walked over to the couch, and sat down to listen to his playing. When he finished I clapped lightly at his performance. He turned around just noticing I was there. "Oh, your awake. I hope I didn't disturb any pleasant dreams." I smiled, and said "Oh no you didn't, I woke up to one though. That music was wonderful, I didn't know you played piano. Why didn't you tell me?" He shrugged, and said "I guess the thought never crossed my mind." I was about to reply, when the hotel wall was blown in, scattering debris every where. Steven was up in an instant, while I activated my exo-suit. It covered my entire body in 2 seconds flat. (AN: The exo-suit isn't her only arms now, it just saved them, and her legs from permenant disablity. They are still operational, but are still incapable of doing most tasks, such as punching a guy in the face, or lifting heavy objects.) I watched the start up as it flashed by.

I looked outside as my H.U.D. and targeting system came up on the view screen. I switched vision modes to thermal, and then added electromagnetic, and sonar to the viewer as well try, and pinpoint who, and what was attacking us, and where they were. I narrowed my eyes as I realized who it was. "It's Joe, and his group... There is... about 50 of them." I said referring to the group who almost killed by around 4 days ago, the day Steven got his telepathic powers. I remember it as if it were 4 days ago.
*Epic Flashback of Pure, and Utter Epicness*
"Really? So soon after what happened, and we already got a gang after us? That has got to be a record, it just has to be." I glared at Steven, for he was amused as we ran away from about 80, or 90 people after us with 2X4s with nails sticking out of them, baseball bats, ect... But he was really getting a kick out of this whole ordeal. I glared at him for getting us in the mess in the first place. He had mocked the leader of the group, Joe. By saying he could beat him in a fist fight, which he did. But Joe didn't take lightly to losing to a 14 year old kid, so he ordered his gang on us, and they was well organized, and had good weaponry, but he said just to seriously injure us, so they didn't bring their guns, or explosives. Steven who was looking back at the gang sticking his tongue out at them didn't watch where he was going, and ended up running into a street lamp. I was ahead of him, so I didn't notice until I looked back at the gang seeing them almost 6 feet from Steven who was getting up rubbing his nose. He turned around, and noticed the gang just a little too late. I watched helplessly, as they hit him in the back with a bat that had nails sticking out of it. But then I saw something that I didn't think I would ever have to see again, I saw his eyes turn a sickly green, but then they started flashing from green to red, to white, to green, to red, to white to green, before they stopped, and he started floating in the air. His eyes flickered green again, then back to normal, and he raised his right hand, and clinched it together tightly. I raised an eye-brow at this confused as to why he did this, but then at least half of our attackers were flung into the air, and were crushed by an invisible force, their blood flying out, and painting the nearby buildings red. The remaining gangs eyes widened, and they ran as fast as they could. Steven then floated down to the ground, and landed in front of me. "I just got access to one of powers outside of my demon state! I have telekinesis now! Am I awesome, or what?" I smirked at his joy of power control, and said "Or what." He laughed at this, and we continued our journey around the city looking for other surviving members of the K.R.U. unit.
*The Pure Epicness known as a Flashback, is now over, please enjoy the rest of the chapter.*
We looked down at them, and zoomed in on their weapons, they had an RPG, shotguns, and several high-power machine guns. I grimaced, and activated my suits C.A.T. and brought out my X-18 mk. IV assault rifle, loaded it, and took aim at the RPG wielder head.
Dib POV
I just knew Zim was up to something, so I borrowed one of Dads hover cycles, and followed them towards another city. I was going to expose Zim for the horrible alien menace he really is. I was almost at their tower when I saw something on top of it. 'Is that... the Bat-plane? Is Batman here too? Is it about the explosion in the sky?' I thought as millions more questions went through my mind, then it hit me. 'Batman is exposing Zim! This is great!' I thought excitedly. I pushed up the throtle, and went a bit faster towards the tower. "Soon, everyone won't mock me anymore, soon, everyone won't call me crazy. I will be a hero! Gaz will be nice to me, and the world will love me!" I thought out loud.
Mimi POV
I saluted my master as I cut transmission. But something felt wrong, I looked down at the ground in thought. 'I can't just not tell Gir, his master is like mine is to me. It would go against the Irken code of honor. I have to at least tell him where Zim is.' I thought as I started my way towards Zims base, but another thought crossed my mind. 'Wait, if our masters are at the same place, then we could help each other in retrieving them, and be more effective at doing so.' I thought, on the way to Zims base. 'Yes, I'll team up with Gir for help to retrieve our masters.' I thought coming to a conclusion. I opened my head, and bought out my jet-pack, and flew as fast as I could to Zims base. I got there within a minute, considering my mistresses base was only about a mile away. I ran up to the door, and knocked. Gir cam to the door, and looked at me agape. I stared at him waiting for him to do something, but he just stared back at me. I got annoyed after a minute, and pussed him out of the way, and went in the house. I turned him around to face me, and I glared at him. "Gir, we need to work together to help get Zim, and my Mistress out of enemy hands. Do you understand Gir?" I asked him. He stared for 30 more seconds, and then opened his mouth as wide as his joints could manage. "HI MIMI! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE!" I glared at him harder, and grabbed him up, and ran out the door to activate my jet-pack. "YAY! ADVENTURE! I'M GOING TO SING THE ADVENTURE SONG NOW! ADVENTURE, ADVENTURE, GOING ON AN ADVENTURE, ADVENTURE, ADVENTURE, GOING ON AN ADVENTURE." Gir screamed the whole time we were flying towards where the signal was coming from. My right optic twitched several times in irritation. 'By the tallest... How does Zim keep himself from dismantling you? We've only been flying for 2 minutes, and I'm ready to kill him already...' I thought angrily. I sighed, annoyed at the whole situation. 'Oh well, I guess I'll get used to it. Besides, he can't go on forever can he?' I thought in defeat.
Chapter length: 3,262
C.A.T. means Computer. Assisted. Targeting. Meaning, that acctivating this will move the suit "muscles" to help the shot hit the closest/most important target. I hope you all know what a H.U.D. is, but if you don't leave a review saying so, and I'll tell you in the next chapter. I do hope there are really people on here who read this, besides just two, or three... Well, I hope however many of you there are, I hope you liked it.
