Confessions of the Heart
Setting 1 Dash's house
Zam was in Dash's library with Starlight looking for something. He was on a mobile latter.
-Zam- Where is it… Uw curse you Dash why do you have to have so many books. Starlight did you find it yet?
-Starlight- Meep
-Zam- Well keep looking we have to find it before…
-Sheva- Hi Zam. (She was on the top of the bookshelf in her tiger form.)
-Zam- Ahh. (He fell off the latter, but Starlight caught him in mid-air with her telekinesis.)
-Sheva- Wow Zam since when can Starlight do that?
-Zam- Since I made her a poison that gave her a levitation horn. But that does not matter what does matter is why did you scare Zam.
-Sheva- Sorry I did not mean to but what are you doing in my house?
-Zam- (Starlight put Zam back on the latter and went back to searching.) That is none of your business.
-Victoria- Oh and why is that?
-Zam- Epp Victoria what are you doing here?
-Victoria- I live here. Now come on Zam you are up to something.
-Zam- You lie filthy arachnid Zam is not up to anything.
-Sheva- Then why are you sweating?
-Zam- Because I have a big test coming up and I need a book to study with.
-Victoria- Then why are you in the spell section?
-Zam- Because I ah…
-Starlight- Meep
-Zam- Good job Starlight you found it. (He jumped off the latter grabbed the book from Starlight still in the air then rolled on to the floor.) Well you see ladies Zam has what he wants. So, I will be going now and…
-Dash- Not with this you won't. (He took the book from Zam.)
-Zam- What no Dash give to Zam.
-Dash- No Zam I gave you all the books you needed for school this book is different and… Huh Zam do you have any idea which book this is?
-Zam- Maybe…
-Dash- This is the book Julie made me use on her and as a result she accidently killed Speedy and Bearringer don't tell me you were planning on using it on yourself!
-Zam- I have to Dash the wedding is almost here and we still don't know who is after Amethyst. Now give it back.
-Dash- No this if far too dangerous for you. I refuse to put my nephew threw the same trauma I put his mother through.
-Zam- Fine I will go defeated. You have bested the great Zam. This is no easy feat you should be proud of yourself uncle. (He left.) Hahah sorry uncle, but this is the only way. Thank you for switching the books Starlight that was quick thinking. Now let's go before they catch on. (He ran right into Zelda) Uff…
-Zelda- Zam are you ok?
-Zam- I am fine Zelda what are you doing here?
-Zelda- I came to see Victoria.
-Zam- Well she is in Dash's house now go distract them I have pressing matters to attend to.
-Zelda- Like what? Uw Zam what is that book?
-Zam- It's a book I am going to use on myself so I can finally see who is after Amethyst.
-Zelda- What you mean that book will enhance your future sight.
-Zam- Yes and the only reason my uncle won't let me use it is because of the bad experience mom had with it. But nothing bad will happen to Zam. (He said as he started to walk towards his voot cruiser.)
-Zelda- But it could Zam. I remember the story you told me that spell messed with your mother's powers I could not bear it if you got hurt.
-Zam- I can handle anything this piece of literature can dish out.
-Zelda- But you can't cast spells.
-Zam- I know but Malachi can. (He said as he threw the book in the voot cruiser.)
-Zelda- No I won't let you I am telling Dash.
-Zam- Starlight don't let her escape. (Starlight hit Zelda with a piece of wood nocking her out.) Starlight that is not what I meant.
-Starlight- Meep.
-Zam- Oh poor Zelda come on we can't leave her here. (He picked her up and put her in the cruiser and they flew off.)
Setting 2 Vort
Zim and Mini Moose were walking through the halls.
-Zim- What is on the agenda for today Mini Moose?
-Mini Moose- Meep. (He handed Zim a piece of paper.)
-Zim- Hmm a prisoner transfer with Matrixdeamanata and Marvin is in charge. WHAT NO THIS CAN'T BE RIGHT! Well I refuse I am not doing it. (He wrinkled up the paper and threw it away.)
-Julie- (The pater his her.) Hey Zim, don't liter. (She looked at the paper.) Oh, I get it. Zim you have to go.
-Zim- No I don't you can do that exchange. I don't want to see that Matrixsys. He keeps poisoning my mother with evil love.
-Julie- Zim he cares about Zimila and besides you have to. You don't want to disappoint the Tallest, do you?
-Zim- No I don't but… Uw fine come on Mini Moose let's get this over with. (He left in a huff.)
-Julie- Well that worked.
-Gir- Uw you are up to something tell me tell me.
-Julie- No Gir it is for Zim's own good. And… (He communicator just went off.) Hello Dash.
-Dash- Um Julie have you seen Zam?
-Julie- No he is at school. Why do you ask?
-Dash- Because he broke into my house and stole the book you used to enhance your powers.
-Julie- HE DID WHAT ZAM YOU ARE IN SUCH TROUBLE.
-Gir- Uw dododi you're gonna be busted
Setting 3 Zam's Voot Cruiser
-Zam- Starlight did you feel that chill in the air.
-Starlight- Meep.
-Zelda- Agh my head.
-Zam- Oh good you're awake sorry about that rough treatment, but you gave me no choice.
-Zelda- Who hit me?
-Zam- Starlight did it not exactly what I had in mind but effective.
-Zelda- Zam I know you want to save Amethyst, but we could find another way.
-Zam- There is no other way mom and dad have exhausted every other option now it is my turn.
-Zelda- But Zam…
-Zam- No more butts we are here.
Setting 3 Matrixdeamanata
-Zelda- I'm sorry Zam I can't let you do this. (She grabbed the book from Zam and ran.)
-Zam- No Zelda give that book back. Zam does not wish to play keep away.
-Zelda- Well I do. (She thought in her mind. "I can't let him find out the truth." Starlight used her telekinesis on the book to try to get it away from Zelda.) No Starlight I am doing this for Zam's own good.
-Zam- I will decide what is good for me. (He pulled it away from Zelda)
-Zelda- Zam listen to me. You don't know what will happen if you use that book.
-Zam- That's the problem I don't know what is going to happen to my sister ZAM REFUSES TO BE IGNORANT! (Just then the Kazak birds sounded their attack.)
-Zelda- Oh no Zam did you land us in the Forest of Terror
-Zam- Maybe…
-Zelda- (A bird attacked her.) Ahh no get off.
-Zam- Leave her alone vile stink beast. (He blasted the bird with fire.)
-Zelda- Thanks Zam look out. (A bird was about to attack Zam.)
-Zam- Ahh get off of me you filthy birds.
-Zelda- Don't worry Zam I got you. (She jumped on him and her wings shocked the birds.)
-Zam- Zelda I did not know you could do that.
-Zelda- It's still relatively new now come on we have to get out of here. Before… (Just then a really big bird pounded them into the ground.)
-Zam and Zelda- AHH!
-Marvin- You leave those children alone! (He froze the bird.)
-Zelda- Marvin thank goodness it is you Zam is unconscious.
-Marvin- Don't worry Zelda I'm getting you three out of here. (He grabbed them and fled with Starlight flying close behind.)
Setting 4 Marvin's house
30 minutes later Zam began to wake up.
-Zelda- Zam are you ok?
-Zam- I think so. Where are we?
-Marvin- In my house.
-Zam- Marvin you saved us. Where is the book?
-Zim- Out of your reach. Zam how could you be so reckless?
-Julie- You should be grateful Marvin found you three before the Kazak bird ate you whole. Oh, my poor smeet don't you ever scare me like that again. (She said hugging him.)
-Zam- Mom dad I had to. It was the only way to protect Amethyst.
-Amethyst- Zam I am going to be fine. (She said as she and Shadow came into the room.)
-Zam- No you won't Amethyst. (He hugged her.) You and your smeets are running out of time. We still don't know who is after you. Don't you guys get it. The closer we get to the wedding the more that evil vision plagues my brain meats. I can't stand by and let you be taken again Amethyst.
-Amethyst- I admire your bravery Zam, but you should not have put yourself Starlight and Zelda endanger like this.
-Zam- I did not mean to put Zelda in danger.
-Zim- It does not matter what you meant to do your plan is over. Now Matrixsys give Zim the prisoner so we can take Zam back to his dorm. Where his grounding can begin.
-Marvin- Sorry Zim there is no prisoner.
-Zim- What do you mean there is no prisoner? Don't tell me you let him escape I knew we could not trust you.
-Julie- No Zim don't be mad a Marvin it was my idea. You see there was never any prisoner we made it up. So you would talk to Marvin.
-Zim- What you lied to Zim. What is so important that you could not simply call and ask Zim?
-Marvin- You never picked up the phone when I tried to call you. Besides this is something I wanted to ask you face to face. Zim I want to ask you if I can marry your mother.
-Zim- WHAT NO NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS!
-Zam- Why not dad Marvin has been nothing but nice to us.
-Zim- You are still in trouble little mister, so you don't get a vote.
-Amethyst- Well I am not in trouble dad so please enlighten us why can't Marvin marry grandma? They have been dating this whole time.
-Zim- Because he is a Matrixsys and Matrixsys can never be trusted.
-Julie- Zim you can't judge Marvin based on the mistakes his leader made.
-Marvin- Zim I can't change what I am, but I have proven who I am. I am the one who saved your friends, daughter, and son multiple times. I helped Izzy get over the very same racism you are displaying.
-Amethyst- That is another thing dad you are going to be a grandpa soon. What if one of my smeets looks like a Matrixsys are you going to hate them?
-Zim- I could never hate them Amethyst.
-Julie- Come on Zim you said you wanted a family.
-Zim- I already have one.
-Amethyst- But don't you want more? Just think how amazing it would be for you to have a sibling like me. One who idolizes you.
-Zim- That would be nice. But don't put that image in my head it's gross.
-Marvin- Zim I know you never had a dad and I don't want to replace Jones in your heart I just want to be there for you and Zimila.
-Zim- I don't know.
-Julie- Zim remember we both lost our first love but then we found each other. I love you Zim and you love me. Don't you want your mother to have the chance at that kind of happiness?
-Zim- Well I ah… Julie where did Zam, Zelda, and Starlight go?
-Julie- WHAT THE BOOK IS GONE ZAM COME BACK!
Setting 5 Running
Zam was being levitated by Starlight and he had the book.
-Zam- That is it Starlight on ward to victory.
-Zelda- (She was flying close behind him.) Zam you have to come back this is suicidal.
-Zam- No it is not fly faster Starlight. (The speed was increased.) There the Tegrays home. Land me Starlight. (She did as she was told.) Malachi Malachi! Where are you!
-Malachi- Zam not so loud you will wake everybody.
-Zam- No time Malachi you must perform this spell on Zam.
-Malachi- Why what will it do?
-Zam- Do not questions Zam just do it or I will tell Daisy you love her.
-Malachi- Huh you wouldn't?
-Zam- I would I have her on speed diel. (He took out his communicator.)
-Malachi- Alright fine. Oh forces of good and evil I summon the. I trade part of my blood (He said biting his figure and then putting the bloody figure on the book.) and ask that you enhance the powers of my companion so that we may save those we cherish form the torture that will befall them if we do not act now.
-Zelda- No Malachi don't. (But it was too late the spell was preformed and Zam was hit by the beam. Unfortunately, the beam's force was so powerful it sent Zam off the edge of the Tato and straight into the water unconscious.) No Zam. (She dove in after him.) Don't worry Zam I 'm coming. (Zam sank to the very bottom of the water.)
-Marvin- (Julie and Marvin were the first to arrive at the scene) Malachi what happened? (He noticed that at this point Malachi was on the ground he looked wiped out from the spell.)
-Malachi- Zam made me cast a spell on him. But after it hit him, he fell into the water. Zelda went after him.
-Julie- No Zam Zelda (She and Marvin dove in after the kids. Julie gave herself gills and gave Marvin a breather from inside her pak.) There they are.
-Zelda- Give him back. (She was trying to pull Zam to the surface, but his leg was caught by an aquatic man-eating plant.) No you can't have him I won't let you. (The plant grabbed Zelda) No not again. (She was losing air.)
-Julie- Don't worry Zam and Zelda we shall save you. (She said as Marvin froze the plant and Julie broke the ice. Zam and Zelda were set free. Julie gave Zelda a breather.) I got you Zelda. (Marvin swam to retrieve Zam, but when he did that something appeared in the ocean that Zam's unconscious body touched. No one seemed to notice as they all swam to the surface.) Oh, Zam this is why I told you no. I know I should not wake you up with force, but we have no choice. (She applied pressure on him.) One two three.
-Zelda- I will give him my breath. (She breathed into him as Julie applied pressure.)
-Julie- (She applied pressure on him.) One two three. (Zelda breathed one more time.)
-Zam- (He woke up coughing.) Zelda what happened?
-Marvin- You almost got yourself killed that is what happened here eat this cold plant it will keep your fire breath in check and these rubber gloves should help with your electric powers. I use them when I am working with electric eels.
-Shadow- Good thinking Marvin. (He said as he and the other arrived on the scene.)
-Lieoda-Malachi why did you cast this spell? (She looking at the book.) You know you are not ready for spells this hard.
-Malachi- Sorry Grandma Zam made me do it.
-Zam- Zelda what happened to you?
-Zelda- What oh no. (Her true from was showing.) Zam it is not what you think I… Please don't hate me.
-Zam- Why would I hate you for being an arachnid hybrid?
-Zelda- Because I lied to you all this time and I am ugly.
-Zam- No you are not you are my friend. Why did you hide this from me?
-Zelda- Because I did not want to be sent to jail.
-Zam- I would never let my mom or dad send you to jail.
-Julie- Even if he would why would we do that?
-Zelda- Because you hate arachnids.
-Julie- Zelda I saw you turning into an arachnid in the water, but I still saved you because you care for Zam. At the expense of your secret you dove right into the water to save him.
-Amethyst- Julie is right Zelda we don't judge a person based on their race we judge them by their actions, and you have never steered us wrong.
-Zelda- Thank you Amethyst. I ah… (She touched Zam on the leg where a dark key was.) Zam what is that thing?
-Lieoda-Looks like a dark key. They say after it has attached itself to someone, it hurt anybody with kindness in their hearts. Only someone who is pure evil and decedent from the person who mand the key or his assistants and their decedents can remove it from the victim. I bet that is what Kerio and Ashriel were after all those years ago. They did say it would appear in the presents of a Matrixsys.
-Marvin- Ow it hurts my hands too.
-Amethyst- Guess that means we can truly trust you Marvin.
-Zim- As if there was every any dough. Marvin I am sorry before Zam ran off I was about to say "Yes this Matrixsys has definitely proven himself. So alright you may marry my mother."
-Marvin- (He hugged Zim.) Oh, thank you so much Zim.
-Zim- No too tight release Zim!
-Marvin- Sorry…
-Zimila- Zim what is going on here?
-Zim- Mom what are you doing here?
-Shadow- I called her might as well get this over with before you change your mind.
-Zimila- What is he talking about Zim?
-Marvin- Zimila from the moment we first met my life has been nothing but chaos that is one thing I like about you and your family. I know you have been through a lot and I do not wish you replace Jones in your heart. I just want you to know that from the deepest pits of my being. I love you. (he pulled out a ring.) So, will you due this humble Matrixsys the honor of becoming my bride.
-Zimilia- Oh yes, I thought you would never ask. (She took the ring and kissed him.) Zim you are ok with this right?
-Zim- Of cores I am but you two need to wait till after Amethyst wedding to get married. Which reminds me Zam what was your vision?
-Zam- Oh yah I saw Esquire dad he is still alive. (he said as he put the key in his pak)
-Zim- What leave it to the son of Silvia to survive an explosion. This means that doubling the security will not be enough. Amethyst I am sorry to say this, but we should probably make the wedding immediate family and friends only.
-Julie- We should still film it for the rest of the universe after all your coronation will take place after wards.
-Amethyst- That is ok as long as we still have the wedding, I will be happy.
-Zam- Oh Amethyst I am so glad you are going to be ok. (He hugged her.)
-Amethyst- Zam what you did was so stupid but sweet at the same time. (She hugged him back.)
-Zam- I'd do it again and again I love you sissy.
-Zelda- (The words of Lieoda rang in her head. Only someone who is pure evil and decedent from the person who mand the key or his assistants and their decedents can remove it from the victim.) Lieoda the key is not going to hurt Zam is it?
-Lieoda- No but if Esquire finds out about it. He will come after Zam and he is the only one who can remove it.
-Zim- Nonsense we will find another way to get it off.
-Zelda- Zam there is something I need to tell you.
-Zam- What is it Zelda?
-Zelda- Well I ah…
-Quinton- (He, Victoria and Dash just arrived on the scene.) Well well isn't this a very interesting sight.
-Amethyst- Good your three got my message.
-Quinton- Yes you said you had good news and bad news Amethyst I assume that the bad news is that poor Vitani's secret is out.
-Zam- That is your real name I like it.
-Vitani- Thanks. (She says as he is blushing.)
-Victoria- I can't believe it one of my rase is still alive. (She ran up and hugged Vitani.) I am so happy.
-Amethyst- You are about to be even happier Victoria consider your probation over. You have earned your freedom Victoria.
-Victoria- Oh thank you Amethyst. (She said shaking her hand.) Vitani you have to tell me everything about yourself. I want to meet your parents.
-Vitani- You can't they are dead.
-Quinton- Yes, I was trying to find the right time to tell you that.
-Victoria- This explains what you meant when you said you knew of a way to bring my race back.
-Quinton- In a matter of speaking yes.
-Victoria- Well come on Vitani we have to get your things I want to tell you all about your heritage.
-Quinton- Capital idea. I will help you.
-Amethyst- Wait Quinton Victoria's freedom was the good news the bad news is that you and Nero can't come to the wedding. I am sorry but Zam had a vision that Esquire is the one coming after me and we have to take precautions.
-Shadow- Only immediate family and friends are allowed.
-Quinton- I thought we were friends.
-Amethyst- We are Quinton but I have not known you that long and I will not risk my smeets lives. You understand, don't you?
-Quinton- But of course I am sorry that you can't come as well Vitani.
-Zam- Oh no she can come. (He put his hand around her shoulder.)
-Vitani- Zam I really must tell you something.
-Quinton- Now come come Vitani I am sure that Zam is in trouble. As I recall Victoria told me that Zam stole Dash's book?
-Dash- Oh yah I almost forgot.
-Julie- Zam I think you ow…
-Zam- I am sorry uncle I won't steal from you ever again I promise. (He gave him back the book.)
-Julie- Good smeet but you are still grounded.
-Zam- What?
-Zim- You heard her.
-Zam- Oh man.
-Quinton- Come on ladies we have much to discuss. (He led Victoria and Vitani into this his ship.)
Setting 6 Quinton's Ship
-Victoria- I can't believe I am free. Sure, does feel good.
-Quinton- Yes, this whole day is filled with shocking developments.
-Victoria- Tell me about it just the thought of anybody being related to Silvia being still alive gives me the creeps. Dash told me everything about this Esquire. I hope he gets what is coming to him.
-Quinton- So you are saying you would not want to seek him out and join him?
-Victoria- Of course not I made that mistake ones I refuse to make it again.
-Quinton- Pitty. (He took out a gun and aimed it at Victoria but Vitani jumped in the way of the beam. They both got flung into the back of the ship.) Looks like you both failed your test.
-Victoria- Vitani are you ok? WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS QUINTON!
-Esquire- (He threw a collar on Victoria that shocked her.) Silence Victoria history is about to repeat itself you were once at the mercy of my mother now you are at mine. Hahaha! (As his disguise came off.)
-Victoria- Huh oh no did you know about this Vitani?
-Vitani- I'm sorry I wanted to tell you but…
-Esquire- She could not because that would mean revealing who she is. Victoria say hello to your niece.
-Victoria- Huh Zach and Silvia had a kid too.
-Esquire- That's right and she is a disgrace to our mother's good name. I can't believe this you were about to tell Zam the truth admit it Vitani.
-Vitani- So what if I was. You lied to me Esquire you always said that if Zam found out what I am he would hate me. Well you were wrong he is still my friend and he deserves the truth. You on the other hand don't deserve Amethyst she is too good for you. What we are doing is wrong.
-Esquire- (he grabbed her with his tail and began to squeeze hard.) If you were not my sister, I would kill you right here and now. (He put a power collar around her neck and threw her against the wall.) I gave you both a chance and this is how you repay me so disappointing. Well Vitani you think that you have won this fight you have not. Zam may have found out what you are but not who you are. As soon as he finds that out. He will reject you just like Dib rejected you Victoria.
-Victoria- Zam is not like Dib.
-Esquire- He has someone he replaced Vitani's love with.
-Vitani- That is not going to work Esquire. I won't turn on Zam. Even if he does not want me. He and his family saved my life. Emme-Rysse kept my secret even though she did not have to, and they showed me kindness something you have never shown me.
-Esquire- You ungrateful child I rescued and you betray me. Which means you get nothing but rotting in this jail. (As he said that bars came up from the ground trapping the two of them in jail.)
-Victoria- No let us out.
-Esquire- Pipe down I have to tell Kerio what you have down Vitani and the new plan.
-Vitani- What new plan.
-Esquire- There are plenty of ways to get into that wedding. In fact, I think the Membrains will be the perfect ticket in.
-Victoria- What no you stay away from them.
-Esquire- Oh Victoria it is so sad to see how far you have fallen. Don't look so glum Vitani I will deliver Zam to you in a body bag.
-Vitani- No leave him alone.
-Esquire- Hahah never remember you brought this upon yourself. (he said as he left.)
-Vitani- I am so sorry I got you into all of this Victoria. (She said as tears filled her eyes.)
-Victoria- Don't worry Vitani I got out of one jail I can get out of this one too. Trust me we will save our friends.
The End
