Chapter 3
Trapped

Dib and Buttercup were trapped in a very large cage. " Oh come on! " yelled Buttercup as she tried to blast the bars off with her heat vision. She kicked and punched, but nothing worked. " Dammit!" she said very upset, " What is this stuff made of?! " She sat down next to Dib. " So does this always happen to you? " Dib looked at her and paused for a second; He actually only made it this far once or twice. " Yeah, " he said simply. There was several moments of silence untill Buttercup broke it with " I think my sisters might be able to save us, but it's just how to let them know where we are..... We could try to--" Buttercup was interrupted by Dib's lips suddenly touching hers. She was about to pull away, but something told her to keep still.

" Ewwww," spat out Zim from behind, " There will be no little kissy thingies, kissy moments in my lair!"

" I think it's sweet, like candy!" said Gir, " I like candy! "

" Is that robot stupid," Buttercup said, " Or is it just me?"

" Gir is not stupid, he is an Irken robot! No Irken robot is stupid! " said Zim.

" Except for me! " said Gir.

" Anyway, you two are now my prisoners! " Zim said turning to leave the room.

" That's it!? " Buttercup shouted, " You're just gonna leave us here!?"

" What do you expect me to do? " asked Zim curious.

" You obviously don't know who I am. I'm a super hero in my town! You're not gonna make a threat against my sisters or something!? "

" Hmmm..... superhero..... Very well, I will allow you to make a phone call to your sisters. Do not mention my name, or there'll be consequenses, " said Zim.

" What are you doing!?" asked Dib, " You're gonna get your sisters caught too! "

" Trust me, this isn't the first I've been held hostage. "


Meanwhile at the Powerpuff Household...

The girls are watching television when the phone rings. " I've got it! " said Bubbles racing to the phone. " Hello?...... Buttercup?........ Oh no!....... We'll be right there! "

" What's up? " asked Blossom

" Buttercup's in trouble! " and with that the girls were on their way.
