The Resisty divided into three parts, Alpha, Omega, and Delta teams, all are specific to a certain job. Alpha, the group designated to combat and weapons. Omega was the ship holding prisoners and it was where Dib and the councilors lived. And Delta held the soldiers and Resisty Members.

Dib presented plans in front of the Resistance. Demands and request spread through the three divisions. Dib ordered that they were to build the miniature versions of the drill currently being built. The digging starts soon with the smaller drills and soon the larger ones will fill in for them. He sent out blue prints and semantics for the builders and mechanics to begin.

A few days had gone by and Zim, Tak, Skoodge and Gir were getting closer to the Resisty Ship. Zim was partially awake and steering his Voot Runner, Tak was sound asleep next to him.

"Why do I always end up the designated driver?", Zim asked himself. He glances to his sleepy wife and puts his arm around her, with this small motion, he accidentally wakes her up. Rubbing her eyes she asks, "Are we there yet?"

"Oh, sorry", Zim said, "I didn't mean to wake you"

Tak smiled and looked out the windshield, "I hope we get there soon, where exactly are they?", she asked

"Well, the last I heard, team Omega was at Callnowia"

Tak sighs and holds Zim's arm, worried and scared for her very young son. "Tez will be fine", Zim assured her, "He's our son isn't he?"

"Headstrong", Tak listed

"Stubborn", Zim continued

Tak smiled, "Over-zealous"

"Doesn't listen", Zim softly shoved her.

"Full of himself", Tak shoved him back.

"I'm not full of myself am I?", Zim asked.

"I am Zim?", Tak pointed out, "I am amazing"

"How else is everyone suppose to know?", Zim asked, giving a cheesy smile.

"I'm a genius?", Skoodge added over the radio, Zim looks confused for a second, "You guys left your radio on again, I keep telling you not to do that"

"Skoodge stay out of this!", Zim yelled

"We should be there", Skoodge said. Skoodge from his ship looks around and could see Planet Callnowia not too far away, but no sign of team Omega.

"He's right, there on the radar", Zim said tracing his finger around the screens, "They must have a cloaking shield".

Zim grabs his armor and activates his airway helmet. It creates a bubble around his head and disappears. Tak does the same and grabs a gun and hand it to Zim and herself. Inside Skoodge's ship, he activates his helmet and grabs a gun. Gir pushes a button and opens the cockpit. The ships lay in the middle of space, Skoodge floats out and holds on to his ship, keeping him from floating off. Zim and Tak flies out of their ship and turn on their jets, Skoodge does the same and they meet up following a path leading to the invisible ship.

"Gir, I need you to go inside and deactivate the cloak", Zim told him. Gir was built with regulation eyes to be able to see objects beyond the Irken eye. In comparison to the Human eye, he could spot dust flying through the air just as Humans could spot mosquitoes. The Ship's cloaking device was visible enough for Gir to find a way inside the ship.

"When the device goes off, the security will be a lot tighter, so stay close", Zim whispered to the trio. "Go", Zim told him. He saluted and flew off and disappeared into the ship.

"You sure Gir will be okay?", Skoodge asked

"He'll be fine, the Resisty won't even know he's there until we get in"..

Inside the Omega Resisty Ship was rooms full of residential dorms where the councilors stayed, slept, ate and lived. Most of the people there were Head Councils, soldiers ready to dock, refugees or prisoners. Lili was the only child there, Dib wanted her close so she would be safe. But nothing worse than being a kid surrounded by soldiers who you would befriend and news would come the next day that they were killed. The refugees brought in were mostly adults and any kids brought in were babies. Unfortunately she was one of the few children saved from the Invasion of Planet Earth, only 10 other cases were reported. Other kids were at least 15 or 16, or newborns and toddlers. She was overwhelmed and couldn't bare the loss of her family and friends, but was very grateful for Dib's adoption. Even though he was only 13 years older, he made a great dad.

He always spends time with her, he played games with her and not too long ago took the time to teach her how to drive the Dibship. He even said he'd teach her self-defense.

But out of all the love he shows her, she was still lonely, no one to talk to when he had to leave. And Gaz was constantly busy, she barely saw Gaz and if she did, it was to talk to Dib about something, work, mostly.

Lili decided to take a walk around the ship. She walked into the refugee's quarters, filled with at least 20 or 30 people. She was relieved to at least find a few people she knew: her mother's friend, Darlene and her 2 year old daughter, Kayla.

Lili goes over to greet them.

"Hi", she waved friendlily.

Darlene looked up from feeding Kayla some cereal, "Lili?", she asked.

"Yeah", Lili smiled.

"You're okay!", Darlene gives her a quick hug, "Where are your parents?", she asked looking around.

"They didn't make it", Lili told her.

"Oh, sweetie, I'm sorry"

"It's okay, I'm glad you guys still made it", Lili said with a smile, "If you guys need anything just let me know and I'll tell my Da-", she corrected herself, "I mean, Captain Dib"

"Okay, thank you", Darlene said, as she gave off a smile.

Lili walked out and looked at the rest of the room: people in worse conditions, some injured, others dying and most of them lucky to be alive. Humans scattered around the universe trying to survive and the ones who stayed on Earth were captured by the Irkens. When the Resisty took Earth back, they were saved. She was surprised not everyone was recovered by now.

Lili walked out and continued her exploration. It was all she could do; it made her think a lot about things. How not too long ago Humans laughed at the thought of life outside of Earth. But, now, just talking about it can create panic and mass hysteria. Lili continued thoughts and ideas around and didn't notice an unfamiliar hallway leading below. She looked around and totally forgot where she was, she shrugged it off and went down the hall, anyway. She knew she was forbidden certain places and for good reasons. Right now she had no idea she was stumbling into one.

There, at the end of the hall was a large door. Lili opens it and walks in. She looks around and see's wall to wall, floor to ceiling prison chambers. The creatures inside gave her looks of disgust and hatred. Not saying anything. She began to feel uncomfortable, and was about to leave until she heard the faint sound of crying. She stops and turns around.

On Irk, Zim Jr and Alexis gave their own Birthday celebration with a small message, still waiting for news about Tez. They didn't feel at all like there was anything to celebrate about. Jr wrote:

"Happy Birthday sis, having you around for 9 years and I still miss you, Love, Zim"

With a reply from Alexis: "Happy Birthday, Zim! I miss you to, it's so weird how we couldn't stand the sight of each other a few years ago and I can't wait to be transported to Irk just to see you guys, I hate being away. Can't wait to see you. Love, Lexi"

Jr smiled at the message. Alexis was being sent to work in Military Science in Northern Irk, because the Irken Air Force was transferred stations and Alexis was chosen to continue her service on Irk in Military Science underground.

The radio called their base to the field and Jr quickly grabbed his weapons and left the base with Vic and Kam

...

Lili followed the small cries down to the last chamber and saw a small Irken, obviously he was very young. Lili stared at him, confused, "Why would Dib capture a baby?", she thought to herself.

She cautiously approached the chamber and sat down, "Hi", she said. Accidentally startling him, he quickly turns around and wipes his tears.

"It's okay, I'm not going to hurt you". Lili looked at him, ever since the Invasion, she was told of how evil Irkens were. How unfeeling, cold and disgusting the Irken race was. This one was scared, small, and helpless, he didn't look like he would hurt anyone. Lili was somewhat mad at Dib for imprisoning a kid like her.

"What's your name", she asked him

"Tez", he said. He was confused as well, Zim always told him that Humans were stupid, hateful, and vengeful. Lili looked around his age and she was reaching out to him. He ignored her for a while. But after some small talk and conversation, he got closer to her. They exchanged interests and laughed at each other's memories and Irkens.

"How old are you?", Lili asked him.

"I'm 5 years old", he told her.

"Wow, what are you doing here?", she asked him.

"I don't know", he started, "My mom left a few days before and I left my grandparents house to go see her. She left to go train in the army, I decided to go see her and I left to find her, one day I was with a few friends and then the sky went black. I heard sirens go off and laser shot everywhere"

Lili listened closer and could remember the Foodcourtia invasion. She recalled watching with Dib as lasers sprung from the ship to the surface.

"I hid someplace and I remember seeing Human soldiers shooting other Irkens, except for one"

He remembers and see's himself hiding behind a staircase, small enough to crouch under the first step. He saw a familiar face look at him and walk toward him, Zak. Zak approaches Tez and kneels down to get a better look.

"Tez?", Zak asked, he looked around to see if Zim or Tak were around.

"Where's your parents?"

"I don't know, they left", Tez said, still shaky.

"Come on, let's go", Zak picks Tez up and leads him to his ship.

"Stay here!", Zak told him as the cockpit closed.

"Next thing I knew, I'm here", Tez finished the story.

Lili thought hard for a second, it was good of Zak to save Tez, but he was still a prisoner. "I'm getting you out of here", she said.

"What?", Tez looked at her.

"Come on, you need to get out", Lili walks over to the lock pad and presses her ID code in it. ACCESS DENIED. Lili scoffs and tries Dib's ID code. She had memorized it from watching him. ACCESS GRANTED.

The walls holding Tez disappear and Lili gestures him to get out. "Let's go".

Gir, now inside the ship, made his way to the control room. He explored the wiring and found his way through the computers to deactivate the cloak.

Zim, Tak and Skoodge waited outside. The ship turned immediately visible and they headed inside.

Inside the Ship, Gir is startled by the sirens going off.

"The cloaking device has been deactivated!", he heard voices call out.

Lili jumps and looks around as a red light flashes and the loud siren vibrates her eardrums. Someone walks inside, Lili turns to see Dib and Gaz.

"Lili? What are you doing here?, Dib asked. Gaz runs up and pushes Tez back inside the chamber and turns on the locks.

"He's just a baby!", Lili shouts at Dib.

"He's one of them Lili!", Dib explained softly, "You're not even suppose to be here".

The sirens stop. Gaz looks around the now dead silent room. "He's here".

Dib looks at Gaz and grabs Lili's hand, "Let's go", he tells her. They turn to leave, but Gaz stays and turns on her electric spear.

"Gaz, you know what to do", Dib said as they left.

While in the hall, Lili contemplates at Dib's actions, "Lili, I know you mean well, but he's in there for a reason", Dib paces down the hall to take her to their room.

"What did he ever do to you?", Lili defended.

Dib was silent, he didn't really have an answer, except that Tez was the son of his enemy. But he didn't tell her that.


Yeah, sorry this took so long, but I almost didn't pass the 10th grade. ^_^' heh.
