Chapter 9- Oh yeah, I don't have anything to say but. Fritos make your lips
numb. Thank you for reading my pathetic attempt of a story.
``````````` "Yeah, I think this is the control room." Dib said while peeking into a small window on the door they thought would lead to the control room.
"Good" Zim responded, "You know what to do. Gir! Go with the Dib-human."
"O-key Do-key!" It squealed back.
Dib proceeded to silently open the door and slide along one side of the room while Zim slid along the other. Halfway to the front of the control room, Dib picked up Gir and chucked him at the large window. The GIR unit landed on the control panel, got up, and started to dance on various controls. All altoron eyes went to the insane robot.
"What IS that thing?!"
"Get it off the controls!"
"No, little robot, don't touch THAT!"
When the altorons were put into a frenzy, Zim made his way up to the opposite side of the room's front. He then started to hack into the altoron's systems.
Dib didn't have to do anything. He could barely keep in the laughter he was about to express because of Gir's antics.
"No wonder Zim keeps this thing around." Dib said to himself. ``````````````` The altoron leader was discussing some landing processes with a few pilots when he noticed something out of the corner of his eye on the security monitors. In the control room, all his altorons were on one side of the room, and on the other.was the irkan.
"Fools! Oh, please excuse me." And with that he swiftly strode out of the room, his purple robe billowing out behind him.
```````````````
"If only I had paid more attention in the computer course of invader training camp." Zim thought to himself. "They seem to set everything up backwards from us superior irkans. Their organization skills almost remind me of.the humans! Hmm.Dib might be able to do this since his inferior race is so similar to the altoron beasts."
"Dib! I.I need you to do this." Zim yelled to Dib over the clamber of the altorons.
"What?! Oh, um.okay." Dib said, stunned by the irkan's statement. He ran over and immediately started figuring out the layout of the altoron system. He began to talk out loud to himself.
"If this symbol means what I think it means, then, yes!" Dib pressed the symbol and a big red list of words appeared on the screen.
"I think this is it." Dib said, and just as he was about to push it, the door swung open and the altoron leader came in leading three guards.
"Seize them, and somebody PLEASE stop that robot!"
Two guards quickly yanked Dib and Zim away from the computer controls while the other guard went over to Gir and shoved it in a metal box.
"How DARE you treat irkan technology with such insolence! You should be-" But Zim was cut short by a fast jab with a tazer.
The leader looked at the irkan fighting and cursing at the guard holding him, and the human who just stood there looking very dismayed at Zim and then looked up at the leader. Dib held a questioning look on his face. 'Probably thinking about what fate I am going to deliver to him.' The altoron leader thought.
"So. what are you going to do to us?" Dib said, a small hint of fear showing in his voice.
The altoron leader stood there, thinking. He truly did not know, but he wasn't about to tell the human that. He wasn't prepared for this. He was willing to kill from afar, but to sentence someone to death and kill them right there.He just didn't know what to do.
Dib's eyes darted nervously from the altoron leader to the still fighting Zim.
"Zim, calm down! Jees, you're not going to get anywhere doing that."
Zim growled something under his breath, but he knew the stink-beast was right. He calmed down, and looked intently at the leader. The leader sighed and started to speak.
"You should not have tried something so foolish as this, you know what we have to do now." He turned to the guards. "Initiate procedure 12-20. "And with that , he turned and left the room.
"I don't think I am going to like procedure 12-20." Dib said nervously.
The guards pushed them out of the control room and after a short walk, pushed them into a sort of lab room. Two scientists were seen doing some experiments with an orange plant-like thing. They looked up from their work when the four came in. The guards walked over to the scientists and whispered something to them before leaving the room and shutting the door to stand guard from outside. The scientists then nodded grimly to each other and walked over to Zim and Dib who were strapped to tables.of DOOM! (A/N: sorry, I couldn't resist!) One scientist went over to a shelf and pulled down two needles and a red vile. He started to fill each needle with a purple fluid and walked over to the wide eyed victims. He gave one of the needles to the other scientist who stood over Dib.
"I think this is it Zim, who would have thought we would die at the same time at somebody else's hands." Dib said while watching the scientist roll his sleeve arm up.
"I must agree human, I much rather would have the pleasure of killing you myself."
Dib would have given Zim an evil glare, but at the time his attention was occupied by the incoming needle towards his bare arm, and the odd expression the scientist was making.
All of a sudden, the scientist swung around and stabbed his fellow scientist before that scientist injected Zim. The scientist with the needle in his arm made a few convulsions, then quickly crumpled to the floor and promptly died.
The scientist who had save them proceeded to unstrap the two from the tables.
"You need to get out of here!" He said, escorting them to a hidden door in the back of the room. "This is an evacuation tube, it will take you to the escape pods."
Just then, the metal box across the room started the squeal and jolt around. The scientist jumped back, quite alarmed.
"What,- what was THAT!?" He cried.
Zim slapped himself in the head. "Oh course, I almost forgot Gir!" He then ran over to the box and carried it back, not bothering to open it.
"Um.okay. Now you must hurry, the guards might come in at any moment!"
Dib just had to know, "Why did you help us, I mean you killed another altoron for us.why?"
"Because I don't believe that what my people is doing is right. This is your planet, and I am amazed by the diverse quantity of life on it. They all don't deserve to die just for a few of one specie. Maybe we just weren't meant to be." The scientist concluded sadly, while nearly pushing the two into the evacuation tube. Dib managed to get out a nearly silent "Thank you." Before he slipped down the tube after Zim.
````````````` Me am done with chapter nine. Whoo-hoo! That is great. Well, until next time; this is X-KAT signing off.
