Tara walked down a long hall. The hall was in a circular shape adn the floors, walls, and the top was made from metal.

Tara hummed to herself. It song had a slow beat to it. And as Tara hummed it she had a emotionless expression to her face. She had been thinking a lot lately. Like for instance her son. Was all the things they said about him true? Did he really cause The Horribel Painful Overload Day, and The Horrible Painful Overload Day part II? Nah, there was just no way he could have. Did he actually cause the destrustion to Tallest Miyuki? Tallest Spork? Thats what the news said. The same Irken that was banished had caused those. But why would she believe the news? She didn't even ever get her sons name. All she knew was that he was banished.

She let out a sigh as she stopped in front of a closed door. She reached back into her Pak and pulled out a small metal card. She slid it through a place by the door. The door slid opened and she entered.

Inside the room was all kinds of computers, and equipment. Rolling chairs sat in front of each keyboard, and computer screen. And a female Irken sat in front of each screen.

"Well, she finally decides to come to work." said a medium sized Irken with dark green eyes. She wore a dress like Tara's only it was dark green, same color as her eyes.

"I'm so sorry, Fran." she said "I got side tracked."

Fran nodded. "Well, you probably caused the destruction of Irk then. I didn't look at any of your transmissions. Cause after all, thats your job not mine." Fran said as she walked towards the door.

Tara growled. Fran always was a bitch. She knew the rules. If the next Irken on duty isn't there, she has to look at the transmissions.

But Tara quickly forgot it and sat down in her seat. She sighed as she cleaned up some of Fran's mess she had left behind. Fran always left a mess. Tara had gotten onto her a dozen time to clean it up before she got there, but she never did.

Fran, as well as the other workers were there for different reasons. Like, herself (Tara) was there for trying and wanting to be a mother to her own smeet. Fran, only recently got sent to work there, for studying! Can you believe it?! She got sent there just for being curious. But a lot of the females were sent there for the same reason. One female, Tesia, who worked on designing new weapons, was there for trying to kill a male. A male that would have killed her if she hadn't defended herself. She was older then Tara, but had had the same job she was given. To expand the Irken race.

But what was so wrong with wanting to learn? Wanting to raise there own children? She saw nothing wrong with it, and the females that worked in the room with her saw nothing wrong either. The Tallest were just being ignorant about the subject. The only one that had even considered going back to their old ways, was Tallest Miyuki, and well she was gone before she could ever decide.

But she stopped thinking so she could get to work. She had lots to do, even extra since Fran had not open the transmissions sent earlier and do a virus scan. With luck she could get any viruses out before they got into the computer. And if she was lucky there would be no viruses.

She watched the first transmission, from Invader Tenn. She informed she was coming up to the Massive, she had completed her mission, it was ready for a galactic sweep. The transmission was clean.

There were a lot from different invaders. All were clean. Except for one that had a small trace of a computer virus. She sent in a program and it was soon completly gone.

Then the last transmission caught her eye. It gave her information about it before it was opened, just liek the others. It read: Invader Zim, Planet Earth.

She had watched transmissions from him before, it was nothin new to her. And since the beginning she had felt a closeness towards him, even though she had never met him before in her life.

She opened it and watched.

When it was over she stared wide eyed at the computer screen. The questions, blocked memory, the Tallest acting nervous. It all came together...

Zim was her son.

He had to be. Besides the feeling that she knew him, those questions and blocked memory was a definate clue. The Tallest acting the way they did gave extra proof.

She allowed herself to blink a few times before she snapped out of the trace she was in. She slowly stood and walked out of the door.

At this point she didn't care what viruses took over the computer. She was going to find her son. She was going to fly to Earth. The scary thing was that she could be thrown in the dungeons or eliminated for doing this. But she had some hope, and she was going to use the hope she had to get through this.
