Episode 106 a/b: Romancing the Tim
Written by Dither
A/N: Finally finishing up all of the fics that had been on hiatus. FINALLY.
Scene 5
Fade In
Opens on Zim floating in a tube of ... something. He is talking to himself
Zim: I'm trapped. I've got to get out of here. They're going to destroy me...
Another Zim appears, confronting the one who appears to be floating
Zim: What did you say?
Floating Zim: I can't stay here. I must run ... I must get out of here...
Zim slaps Floating Zim across the face
Zim: You can't get out. Your end is near.
Zim slaps Floating Zim again
Floating Zim: Why are you so cruel? What have I ever done to you?
Zim: Slap Everything. You ruined my life. Slap Everything would have been wonderful without you. Slap If you had never interfered, I would be ... better ... than now.
Floating Zim: But I ...
Zim slaps Floating Zim repeatedly, back and forth
Zim wakes up alone, suspended by cables. He takes a deep breath, and realizes he can breathe
Zim groans, his head covered in bruises, and activates his spider legs, using them to cut himself free
Zim falls to the floor of the spacecraft
Groaning with each step, he drags himself out of the room with his spider legs
Bright lights flash and alarms go off around him as he drags himself to the ships dock and hauls himself inside
Zim activates the pod's engines and autopilot, and slumps back in the chair
The small craft exits the docking bay and flies towards earth, and his base, while FJST's ship flies in the opposite direction
Camera follows Zim in his ship as he heads back towards earth, then turns back to FJST's ship
Tak is standing at a view port, watching Zim's escape
Camera pushes through the view port, into the room
Tak is standing with her arms crossed, her face and eyes blank. Filthy Juice Sucker Tim is standing behind her, practicing the downward swing with a training sword
Tak: So that's it? We let him go?
FJST: Yes.
Camera focuses on Tak, and she stiffens
FJST: Without pause He will not forget this. He must accept us as a threat to him.
FJST's eyes appear to focus for a moment, but his swings remain rhythmic
FJST: ...and we will return, again and again, to catch him off-guard, and bring him close to destruction, but allow him to escape each time.
Tak: And... ?
FJST: Camera slowly zooms in on FJST as he speaks He will become paranoid. He may do your job for us and destroy himself.
Camera fades so that FJST's face is transparent over Zim's ship as he makes planet-fall
FJST: We will haunt his every waking moment. From this day forth, we shall monitor his every movement, point out every flaw in his guise, and attempt to expose him at every opportunity. Stops in mid-swing, turns to Tak So long as we are together, he has no hope of survival; whether by our hand or his own, he will be destroyed.
Eerie silence follows, and FJST's image vanishes
We see only Zim's escape craft as he enters the earth's atmosphere
The hull of the craft glows red, and Zim crash-lands in his front yard
Zim falls out of the craft and crawls up the sidewalk towards his house
FJST (O.S.): Things will never be the same...
The front door opens and the Robo-Parents roll out
Robo-Parents (Together): Welcome home son!
FJST & Tak's laughter are heard in the background as Zim drags himself into the house and the door closes behind him
Fade out

Episode End
A/N: I'm really disappointed with how this episode and Terrible Turkey Day ended. It took far too long to finish, and I lost the spark that I had carried when I originally wrote them.
It'd be great to get a second opinion for when I'm writing these things, someone who thinks like me :P who can help me write these. Lord Timothy is great, but we pretty much work separately.
LOL - what am I saying. We work together all the time. I dunno what I'm talking about. I've got a lot on my mind, what with turning 18 ... mmm ... yesterday, and High School's end being only a semester away. Someday I'll go back and rewrite this, I could have done it a lot better, I really could have.
