Dib writhed in pain on the hospital stretcher, vision blurring to the point of seeing merely fuzzy blotches instead of outlines. Thankfully, his antennae could do all the 'seeing' for him. He knew that his family, Diz, and the S.I.R. Units were around the bed trying to keep him under control and consoled, but he wasn't sure if Zim was there or not: he kept popping in and out of Dib's antennae/mental radar, along with the scent of flowers playing on his antennae.

He heard the door slide open and a few more fuzz balls hustled in: a sky blue blur, a small silver blur, and a green-black-and-blue blur. The trio moved to the end of the bed, next to a purple-and-green blur he knew for certain to be Diz.

"About time you guys got here!" exclaimed the Diz-blotch.

"Sorry," said Ley's voice, "We had to wait for Pleecy to finish the serum."

"Well it shouldn't have taken that long! The house detected the ship dropping Pleecy and Neeka off almost an hour ago!"

"Hey, if it's in my Special Labs, expect it to take some time, okay! – " growled the Pleecy-lint.

The green-blue-black blur moved closer to Pleecy and appeared to put hands on her shoulders and a female voice said, "Calm down Pleecy, we're all just stressed now, ok? We have a job to do, anyway. Professor, if you and your daughter could leave the room…"

"Of course," said his father's voice as a white blur moved toward the door.

Gaz's purple blur moved to the foot of the bed and lingered. "…Good luck brother." She quickly left the room.

Pleecy moved to the left side of the bed. "Ready Ley?"

"Let's get to it," her voice replied. "While we have the time."

Pleecy leaned down somewhat towards Dib's face: the closer she came, the clearer her form became until it was near completely clear at just a few feet above his face. "Dib? Dib, can you look at me, bud?"

Dib blinked a few times. "P-Pleecy? You're back," he murmured with a voice that sounded breathless, a feeble smile spreading on his lips.

"Yes: Just in time. Now look at me, Dib. Look me right in the eyes." With a serious look, Pleecy pointed two fingers at her eyes.

A neon blue flash enveloped Dib's vision before he lost consciousness.

A smiling Pleecy waved after the Membrane Family from her door's window as they walked down her sidewalk and rounded the electric fence's corner to the left. Diz came up behind her.

"Well then, now that that crisis is over, how's about we get started on the Checkpoint preparations, Pleecy?"

Pleecy turned around, smiled wider and laughed lightly through her nose; an exhale of air. "Sounds good to me. I'll meet ya down in the Blueprint Room."

"Okay, don't take too long," Diz said, turning around and heading for the kitchen, her elbow bending with left hand floating up to an equal height as her shoulders in a girly fashion. "The first Scouts will start out for Earth as soon as I give the Tallests' the OK."

"A'ight. Be right there."

As Diz walked on air into the kitchen, door swinging shut behind her, Pleecy turned around and placed what looked like a moon-colored Lily on the window sill with an emerald stalk and leaves, so healthy-looking it seemed to have just been dug up and placed in its sparkly, midnight-black stone pot. "Now, about those plans…" she purred to herself with a chesire cat grin and chuckled evilly, drumming her finger tips together as she turned and headed for the kitchen's elevator.
