~ Years Later, in the Vortian Palace of Wisdom ~

Four years now since I've been their queen, but am I happy about all the power I have, the royalty, and all the stuff I can do to punish bad Vortians using the black hole only I have control of? Except for that last one, no, and I kept missing Lard Nar by the day. He should've been ruler, he should've deserved it all, since he did work hard and tried the hardest to free them, yet for me all it took was a grudge and a single kick of a can with the perfect aiming! As I looked myself in the glass chambers every morning and night, I would also think of Dib.

Believe it or not, I still have this achy, love needed feeling for Dib, too. He's sixteen now, probably a lot more taller, handsome and hopefully more understanding of things. I wonder if Zim ruled the Earth yet, and how the war is going on now without me. Since I've become Queen, they only demanded peace and quiet, no one wanted to get more involved with the war, which was called, 'The Irken-Conquest Revolution'. But the declaring of war hasn't been done yet, so for now they're just battling their heads off, and setting up plans.

"Scarlett," I commanded at the tip of my voice, lying idly on the velvet chair as I often do, "Come up upon the balcony with me, would you?" Scarlett was still the same old self, except now she's in a Computer Storage Robot that matched her old laptop home. She flew with her dragonfly wings over to my side.

She walked up to me on her spider legs, clanking and tapping the white and blue marble floor."Yes, my liege?"

I frowned at her use of royalty to me, as if I ruled over her, too!? "Don't call me that, dear old friend, you know me more personally than anyone else here on this planet, no matter what the rumors say!"

"What's wrong now, still miss Lard Nar....and that Dib human also?"

"Bull's eye, Scarlet! Being queen of the second most advanced species in the Universe is doing nothing to help this war! I wanna get right into the battle, with General Lard Nar leading the way! I watch the news everyday on more updates, the Resisty is losing! They couldn't get any more allies up aboard, and now some of them are being captured and have been questioned on Irken trials on Planet Judgementia!"

"What about Dib? You're in contact with him?"

I grieved, regretting myself for forgetting all about him, my first love. " ...No, I hadn't seen his face since I left Earth, but still think of him as much of the day for as much love for him as General Lard Nar."

So you're still in chaos with Cupid, who do you love the more, I can't make the decision, nor anyone or anything else. Pick one of them already, you must admit this can't be a tie vote any longer."

"Life stinks when you have two paths waiting for you to take, but either one is as much joyful or as much horrible as the other! Even if I helped out the Resisty by bringing out an army, would that still make Lard Nar appreciate me? NO! And what if Dib was doing the same thing, so I give him the army. What could he do with it? He doesn't understand war, and the Universe's conditions now as much as myself and you, Scarlet."

"Listen to me!! It's been four and three fourths years now that you keeping moping and keep confusing yourself with other things! We've got all what the Resisty needs, and all you do is Sit and sigh! Sit and sigh!!! Now is the time to make fate's choice for the future life: Go with Lard Nar to fight the Irkens and make him being king of the Vortians, or fly off with Dib to leave on cruising and hitchhiking the stars and planets. Which is it going to be?"

"Uhh......Is there a choice D., All of The Above?!? Heh, heh...."

"Be serious about this! Now you shall make the choice, and that choice will lead you to whatever lies in fate's hands, and don't come blaming me or awarding me for forcing to do this to you!! The choice.....is yours to decide upon."

I thought in my head, mumbling things, but I had a notion that something might work. Well maybe....Could it be the right thing for me? Yeah, yeah! I guess I could do that!!

~ THE NEXT MORNING ~

I got dressed, wearing the usual Vortian uniform, but now a very sparkling, ruby version of my Queen cape, and the crown, which was now machine-polished, and hand-cleaned by the most caring crown-care-takers. The three suns have already risen in the sky since midnight, as they do everyday, unlike Planet Earth. It was a very exquisite day, although because of the engineering companies, the skies and air we breathe have been reduced to staying grayish-black, and smell like the ashes of my burning victims, permanently. Quite sad, for such a peaceful, hard working a spiritual group of civilians.

Scarlett did the honors for this special day by downloading horn blows heard from all over the 12 Regions of Vort. They all came, different heads, skins and clothes of all the colors imagined. They all stood up, gave the proper salute, and cheered on as I walked out of the Wisdom Palace, and stood on the pretty slippery diamond balcony, and waved to everyone there, with the power of my pointer smoking out green, black and purple smoke in the form of two hands and a dove. Very beautiful, indeed!

"Thank you all, for coming!! For the past several years, I've run this small Planet of Vortians, without any harsh, or serious situations going on other than the war for Universal Independence just outside our painfully guarded planet. But, even before I had the remarkable surgery to become one of millions of you, I was always into the heart of getting our freedoms rights officially by slaughtering, and killing the enemy! EU-RRRAH!!!!"

My audience mumbled and whispered to each other in confusion to what I was saying, even the royal aristocrats and my best bud Scarlett felt that something was wrong here. But trust me, from that day and on, I always have known that this is the right decision for me, and possibly others, too.

"And, uh....I...EEEEK!" I tripped, banging my four knees onto the hard marble, than stabbing my hands by holding on to the sharp, pointed edges of the bastion.

"What I'm getting to here is that------I quit being Queen!" I shouted to them all, feeling the intensity to act like a maniac. "So long, suckers! Whoa, whoa!! AHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!" And so I did, act like a maniac.

Because of the incredibly slippery diamonds I stood on, I tripped, hanging on the bronze handles of the balcony as much as possible, but slipped right under them, and fall over 2,000 feet down, and into the hard, cemented ground. Talk about the ultimate ouch.

"AHHHHHH!!!!!" I scream, then I land, thank god for those Vortians standing below me acting as cushions. "Ow.... That really kills my ass off, man!! Well, at least I magically landed safely without getting injured, so...bye!!"

I threw my robe and my crown out to the crowd, and fought for it like the weasels scramble to get the last drop of cranberry juice in their mouths in the middle of winter. Scarlet flew down to my SAK, hanging off by my shoulder, and crawled in it instantly like a little sneaky spider. I didn't know where to go, so I just ran all over Rubycez, the second most biggest, richest and most populated city on the Planet, losing to Vortica. Which is where I was running up to.

"You dumbass! You can't just leave an entire species alone to let them argue over who'll be the new ruler! It'll be a disaster, all the killing, beatings, destroying of those most elegant castles, and now all of it will be gone because of your stupidest, incorrect selection ever!"

"But hey, you did say the decision is mine and mine only, ain't I right?"

"Ain't--- isn't---a---real word!! Real word! Real word! REAL WORD!!! UGH!! Grrr......!"

"Pfft! Don't you worry or grudge about a thing more, by bestest and most advanced model friend, this will all be for the better, 'cause I've still got THIS, baby! Ha ha ha, HA HA!!!!" In my hands, I led up toward the sun on the northeast, the magical pointer, with its black-hole safe keeping snow globe on top. I may not anything else to prove myself as a ruler, but I still have the punishing powers to send Vortians to black holes, or do something just as worse.

"What the---? JIL!! You took that thing with you!?! God, you are the most beyond idiotic being I've ever met---you don't want to be Queen anymore, but you still want the keep one of the Top Four most powerful weapons in the entire Universe as a souvenir?!"

The word 'souvenir' echoed everywhere, and even though Vortians are a bit weak at hearing, their other senses told them that the pointer was still in the hands of the Quitted Queen of Queer-iness. Hypnotized by the green light reflecting from the black globe, they all came over with arms straight in the air, just like a whole army of zombies.

"We want.....THE POINTER OF POWER!!! POW---ERRRRRRR!!!! Give us the pointer, or suffer the horrible shame in the early future!! WOOOooooOOO!!!"

"Aw, jeez!! I know that I can really stupid and all, but come on! I didn't influence all of you to become dorky zombies when I was in control! And besides, why should I give it to you, when I can just suckl you all out of my life, and into this globe! So, HA, HAAA!!!!"

I expected them to come up with some kind of flaw in my plan so they can beat me in this game, but unfortunately, they were all born in the Dumb ass Generation of stupid-ness such as Mr. Bush, and the Klasky-Csupio Partners in Crime by stupid-flying human crappy spot shows and infants having severe diarrhea.

A Vortian Male spoke up though, trying to threaten me. "Uhhh...Give us the pointer, Or suffer the tug of war for it!!"

"Yeah!" Replied a female. How pitiful, yet humorous! All the hands and arms grabbed the dull end of the pointer, while lucky me got the globe to grasp inside my arms. Being incredibly strong and nuclear in the arms 'cause of my killing labor, it was only a piece of cake to get the pointer back to me.

"All right!! This has gone far enough! I'm opening this globe, and setting it to full power!! Here I go!"

The black bowling ball magically opened itself, but you couldn't really see it move 'cause of all the black.

"Wait a minute!" Interjected the guy who'd spoken before, "If you set to full power, it'll sucked everything in sight inside that little stick! And that includes yourself So, ha! Ha!"

All agreed, and started to cheer it on. They have won now, I had not thought of this earlier, nor would've I remembered this fact for the rest of my life. But, I had the most random, most unfamiliar memory of something I learned back when they told me how to point the holy stick, and it shall now be useful to me. At least, that's what I thought it would be, along with everybody else looking at me, and all you readers who don't care about your permanent eye damage from reading such a long chapter!

"That's where you're wrong, my fellow stranger! Because now I realize that I can always set it on to full power, and----push the reverse button! MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!! Spitting out every single thing that got stuck in this black hole, will all be out, re-fixing themselves automatically because they're going backward, and destroying the entire city of Rubycez into millions of pieces!"

I laughed such a very Zimmy-laugh, and set my finger to the reverse button, leaning it downward, and-----

"ARRRGH!!!! There's too many of them, there's no chance of winning now!!! retreat!!!!! AHHH!!!!" A voice I heard, but it seemed so loud only to me that I knew exactly where it had came from.

"But what about for the sake of our freedom? Our freedom?!" Another voice replied, Vortian were annoyed by the disturbing pause.

"Sir, the Irkens have stolen all of our weapons, we're doomed like monkey cake!!"

"We must keep going for the sake of-----ARRGHH!!! IT BURRRNS!!!!"

KABOOOM!!!! CRASH! Nuclear implosions arise!!! Evil laughter comes aboard!! Brave soldiers lie dead under black-booted feet. It's doom, MAAAN!!

I turned around to western side of the planet, such as the million others waiting my move did the same. They questioned if this was some kind of party, or worse, the center, most important battle of war. And just as I feared ever so greatly, the battle that my 2nd true love was losing. Shooting laser, explosions and implosions, screams and cannons shooting were the only sounds to listen to during this horrid and curious time period.

"Retreat now!!! There's no point of continuing to fight, the red shirts have got us cornered, right next to death himself!"

"No! I'll find out more weapons and a better strategy, and then we will crush them once again, like little tiny----AHHHH!! Hey!! Help me!! Help meeee!!!!"

"The captain!! He's been captured!!"

"General, you idiot, he's a general now! And why would they capture the general? Isn't that against the rules of war?"

"Irkens always cheat, let's kick their asses, already!!"

"Or we can just sit our asses out, it'll be a lot easier to do now. God, *yawn* I'm sooooo tired!!! I'm taking a nap, goodnight!"

How can we hear such conversations from a planet about 2,900 miles away from us, when Vortians have such bad hearing? That's not important, nor useful information, but the point is that Lard Nar got captured by the enemy, and no one would do anything to get him back, or win the Grand Battle of Doom, which it's now called.

I gasped, turning pale worrying of the doom Lard Nar will enter in. "Lard Nar! He needs me.....shooting out stuff from black holes or not, my love/s will always be #1 on my list...."

Scarlett whispered back to me, "Just fly down there to save the helpless bastard! These Vortians can pick their own Queen themselves!!"

"Oh, right...Ahem....SAYONARA, FUCKERS! HAHAHAHAHA!!!!"

The hover-board came out of my SAK, and put together itself for me and Scarlet to fly on to rescue Lard Nar to win the war. With my fuel refilled, I fly the board about 95 mph, which is a little too fast for an average hover-flyer. I listened t all the screams of death and help from my love, which made my heart sank and break the more I hear it, and found out that this battle was taken place on the rough countryside of Irk, not Meekrob, which I have suspected it to be before. But this will be the first and last battle taken place on Irk, that the Resisty will win.:

"Many the are strong that seek power and few are the spineless seek peace.

A battle shall insure for the greater good.

A battle that shall change the course of the future.

A battle that shall determine whether to be slaves,

Or remain free......."

The crowd was almighty huge, being on the left, and taking up most of the dirty, dark and muddy field are the Irkens with their army shooting cannons from the ground and in their monstrous dark violet tanks, and the armada shooting lasers in the sky, with the huge, red Massive ship behind the miniature red cruisers, which I once called home, blocking out the entire sky and sunlight.

The whole battle was so violent, destructive and just like a boy's night out, that the field was now an oval pit, measuring about 20 feet deep, and that's all there was for the land. No trees, no grass, no ponds or anything like a forest, just one large dirt pit that was, as I said before, 20 feet deep. The Irkens took up most of the crowd, while the larger-than-before but still small Resisty army was on the opposite side of the giant egg print, all trapped between the rocky wall inside, and the Irken soldiers with guns, tanks and cruisers all around them.

"AHHH!!! Somebody rescue me, damn it!!" My Lardy ordered his troops, in his savvy thick British accent, "I don't want have to scream high-pitched to get your attention!!"

"Look!" Scarlett turned me over to the further side of the pit, "There he is!! Those soldiers are taking him to the leading tank!"

"Oh...bullshit." Everyone knows that the leader battle tank in war is where either the sergeant is to rip your guts using his own, mechanically strong hands, or teleporting beam that takes you right up to the execution studio, where the Almighty Tallests are evil enough to give you the most tormenting pains before they kill you, like a cat would play with a grasshopper to flatten it out before eating it. I checked my SAK to choose today's weapon for attack, but for once in my life, I. Had. NO. WEAPONS!!

"....DOUBLE BULLSHIT! I never go anywhere without my scythes, mini-gullotines, butcher knives, guns, swords, daggers, hooks, bombs, poison gases, toasters, paperweight AND my very special erasers! What happened to them all?!"

"Heh, I sorta.... Send them all to the black hole right after you became Queen so that you can rule the planet without going homicidal! Heh, heh." Curse that smart-pants lap top!

"Why you little piece of shit---!!!!"

"Quick! The tank door is opening!" Scarlett interrupted before she would get killed, but it had a good reason behind it.

"EEEK!! Scarlet, keep an eye on the board, and fly it over to me whenever you think I'll need it. You do know how to drive it, right?"

"Simple: Use the processes and concentration of living and/or built mind to operation the Hover-Board's speed, direction, and distance above ground."

"Excellent! I'll be back, don't you worry." I jumped off the board, which was about 30 feet downward, and landed hard, but I on my feet standing on the door of the tank, closing it downward.

"Let go of that ingenious, powerful General/Captain, or it'll be time for me to do this!" I jumped down to the soldiers, and knocked them down by the air-kicks of my flexible legs. Three more came to me with guns, and simply pulled the ends of the guns and stuck them through the cement-like ground, with the Irkens standing on the top end of the guns in the air helplessly.

"Jil! You've came back to rescue me!" My love praised me, I couldn't believe it! "But are you sure you can win this battle on your own---?"

"Wouldn't be a single sweat to me, General!" I kicked an Irken's crotch, just to prove my point. "Get on

my---"Still fighting, I got hold of a gun and shot five Irkens at the same time, 'tis very fun to do!

"---hover-board down there, and command your---" With the same gun I stuck down it through a tall Irken's throat, choking him in seconds. "---men to win this war! URRRRAH!!!"

Scarlett came over with my board, and the General of my most desires jumps on, leading the now-more-encouraged Resisty members to kick some serious Irken ass (crotch is optional). Wearing his Napoleon hat, and stabbing idiotic green heads with his long, skinny sword, he lead on, and the Resisty army started to corner the Irkens at the left side of the huge pit.

"Take that! And that! And you deserve some of this!" I love talking to my victims right before they suffer, "Hey, don't tell me you didn't expect me to get you all next!! Look, stop blocking my way, or do want to lose this war, HA HA!!"

I had gathered more weapons, and even made inventions of murder on my own, from the very guns, laser shooters, and swords taken from every single dead body I've killed and thrown to this heavenly pit of hell. I karate-kicked small and medium fighters, made fried meat from the more taller and stronger soldiers, blasted out tanks with my bombs, and deactivated PAKs of mere drummer smeets and fluters. But I was not the only one doing it all, other members watched me do my combat, and were inspired to do the very same, and soon most of the Resisty army was killing over 1,500 out of 800,000 Irkens, while I myself at least have finished about 2,100 lives. I was still counting though, and Lard Nar urged me that a plan should be made now to get our weapons and soldiers back. It's been 12 hours since the battle originally begun.

"You do it all, Lard Nar! My only purpose here is to slaughter and murder! Slaughter, and MUR-DER!! Have some of the weaker killers do it out, they're probably getting tired all ready, but I've just started!"

"I've recently contacted my most trusted assistant and he'll be over here in his ship soon to help you out, since he's got lasers now programmed. He isn't as good as you are, but he's been awarded Ambassador of Meekrob, and he's been fighting against the Irkens for about 4 years now, so he has some skill. Be good to him, okay? He's a bit young and stupid, but I'm sure he'll truly be a big favor for us to win."

"But I'm---" I stopped myself, shooting pink lasers at some guy. -"-an even bigger favor for you and the Resisty to win, right?" I threw an Irken flag right threw the tiny flag-holder, trying to impress this Vortian as much as possible.

"Yeah, I guess....He should be here soon! Good luck!" He flew off, and I've managed to stab about 9 small soldiers, conquer a tank and hand it over to Shloonktapooxis, to a quadruple air kick with both feet at the same time, knocking out 6 tank drivers that were trying to escape the battle, knock down my first Irken Battle Cruiser with just a hand-made crossbow and help burn two cannons, meting them hot to the sand and dirt.

It was then after the smell of hot tar and black cement had come to air, that the great Ambassador of Meekrob flew down above my head, in a very familiar ship. It was a Spittle Runner, but one I have only seen once before in life, and the one driving it opened up the glass shield, revealing a very tall, about a foot taller than me, boy who looked very pale. He a wore black and blue army suit, along with combat boots that went up to his knees, which I saw bending up inside the tiny ship. His jet-black hair was ragged and down to his shoulders, like a rock-and-roll star. On his head was a helmet, green like my old pants, with slate goggles that were just like Lard Nar's. He dropped his jaw, as did mine, to see that we were both surprised to see each other on the end-or-war battle hole.

Dib?!? What the freaking hell are you doing here? You looked dressed to enter a freak show! Hey.....How did you know it was me!? I'm so different now...." The both of us said, stupidly in a simultaneous way.

We shared our laughs, being so silly in the middle of war, and being happy to meet each other again, and to be so stupid as the both of us to say the same words at the same time.

"Well, it's good to see you again, after such a long separation..." I sighed a bit, I felt so mediocre now that I got to see Dib again.

"You like Lard Nar, don't you?" How de he know??? I wanted to find out, but how am I gonna answer his question without ruining him?

"Uh....Well, hell yes, I do! But the thing is, I've gave up on love itself, now! When I entered this battle, I know now that romance isn't my goal in life, all it does is cause me trouble inside, my true center of my heart is the defeat of the Irken Empire and my murder obsession."

"Oh, so, are you still friends with me....or the both of us? Because Lard Nar's developed a huge crush on you..."

"REALLY?!" I glared, my eyes dancing for joy, but stopped jingling for Dib's sake. "I mean...who cares! The sexual love for somebody can act strange sometimes, can't it?"

"Whoa, you did what---?"

I ignored him to go on with the battle, and killing Irkens and now bringing down the ships with the help of Spleenk and these short, plump little green guys who scream a lot. But that doesn't mean I didn't look at Lard Nar and at Dib the same way I used to. I fly into heaven on angel's wings whenever I daydream of them holding my hand. Sure, I've learned now that all love does now is to block the real picture in my life, and just pulls me over to the path that wasn't supposed to be there for me.

Sure, I can hangout with them and think of them all I want, but violence and Irken surrender is more important to me now. SCREW LOVE! I'll never end the debate of who wins the love contest in my life, and I don't care even if philosophers after I die can't figure it out. It's an unsolved mystery that's better off to be dumped out.

"Yes! We've got weapons and battle mechs loaded, HA HA!!" Captain/General Lard Nar announced to me, I was proud of being part of his war now while it was still going on.

More people left me be to hand-kill the Irken soldiers, as they went off to blast ships and stuff off with their own mechs. I did kill more than before though, and Lard Nar had send the weaker members to distract the Irken guards, and freed all the captured Resisty soldiers, and stole some of the Irken killer stuff for me to use. I thanked them and then they went to steal Irken ships, and started to blow-up all the new battle cruisers and cannon-jets from Hobo 13.

Everyone was breaking the rules of war, but none of cared a bit; It was 1 AM, 2nd day of fighting, it's raining, we can't see where we're shooting, dirt became mud and quicksand in which some Irkens sank in, most of us were drunk from that random 3-hour break we had at midnight, and none of us didn't have the intelligence or sill to act normally in battle.

You could say it was more like a night club than a battle to end the ultimate Universe revolution. But we fought anyway, and about an hour later, we took 6 hour killing-naps, where we all fought, shoot, drove, flew, die, command, trip, sink, drink, gather weapons, get captured, freeing the captured, stealing stuff, digging the pit even deeper while we were asleep. Even though Irkens can't sleep, they were pretty tired and dead-like, so they didn't have more of an advantage.

"Ughhhh.....*snore* take.....whazaa! And......*collapse* Here's a trip you'll--"

"ahhhhhh....!"The irken fainted sinking into a mud puddle.

"*yawn* Never---" I did a slow, weak stab through the Irken's gut "----mmmi...."

Dib lay on the controls, shooting lasers at all sorts of places. "ZZZZZZZZZZZ!!"

"Man, I'm not supposed to ever be this........this.....TI-RRREED!!! Shloonktapooxis complained, "Uh, I give....down.....?"

"Oh, god...I am dying, that I, I, I, I,---"An panicky Invader shrieked.

"Who the fuck cares?" The one known as Invader Kim replied, "Ohhh......uggh..."

Kooch, the worry-wart Invader, collapsed into quicksand, getting stuck down half way.

~ 10 AM, Later that Day ~

Now only 2,000 out of 800,000 Irkens are still living, and the Resisty's allies had came along an hour after our naps were over, and now we had 4,900 soldiers on our side, and now only 2,000 of them were alive. Now, this was an unusual to have the same exact amount of men fighting on each side. Irkens didn't like things being even like this, it didn't make them having the advantage to win, so the Massive landed in the middle of the deep pit. The Almighty Tallests, Red & Purple, stood on the balcony facing every soldier here, the very same one I was on arguing and reasoning with them to give me a new body. But they didn't, so I stuck out my Vortian tongue out at them.

"We're ending this battle officially, and since each side has the same amount of soldiers it is---" Red started.

"Up to you to see whoever gets one more solider for their army, and whoever get him/her first wins the war!" Purple continued, then being bonked on the head by Red's fist. Ha, hah!!!

"So....Good luck! And here, a fresh new soldier for the Irken Empire!" That Red is such a cheater!!

"We.....oww.....rock!" Purple cheered, rubbing the bruise on his forehead. Red threw a table-headed service drone down to the Irkens. This was just one of their schemes of cheating, so I let Dib do the honors.

"Shoot 'm down to the dirt and mud, Dib!"

"Aiming...firing pink laser!" Dib targeted the Irekn, and killed it, imploding him to pieces of squiddly spooch.

Then Purple tossed another one, and Lard Nar threw his sword through her throat, just as her feet touched the ground. They did it again, and again, and again, and again, until everyone of us, except for me, got to sacrifice one life of these Irken servants and lil' weaklings.

"Do we have anyone else left?" I heard Tallest Red whisper. Why do I have such good hearing today?



"I'm afraid we...don't." Tallest purple mumbled back, starring nervously at the audience, but mostly at me, they seemed to recognized me somehow. "We're the only two on the Massive now! What are we gonna do!?"

"Hey," I yelled back at them, smirking, "I've got a soldier, and she's going on our side!!" Scarlett flew above everyone's heads, and landed in front of Lard Nar, Dib and I. She had been back at Vort settling things there since Lard Nar took control of the board, so it counted.

"NOOO!!!! No fair! No fair it doesn't count!!" Dweebs, those darn tall freaks!

"Oh, shut up, you idiotic dictators!" Lard Nar said to them, laughing for great victory, "The universe shall be now free of your evilness!!"

We all cheered, and caused a very large fire that burned the whole planet up to ashes, never making it exiist again. We all escaped in a series of ships the Meekrob gave us before the Irk was destroyed, and celebrated our victory by having, as I've said before, the ultimate boy's night out. And they were a lot of females too, so it wasn't like no one got left out of seeing the Irkens in their most humiliating state of power: When they lose. To us! We've made a toast on the main, leading ship.....

Lard Nar held up a glass of the most finest wine in the galaxy, tapping it for a grand speech. "To the Resisty, Meekrob, Planet Jackers, Vortians, Humans, Nhar'Ghok and others who supported in this war, I shall now say we have saved the Universe from the Irkens. TO US!"

"TO US! TO US!"

Dib grabbed to my hand, and we celebrated with a victorious kiss, and I crowned Dib to be King of the Vortians, and now everyone else left in their own cruisers and runners, to do their own thing in life or get back to their old life, they way they like it. But me and Lard Nar were staying in the main ship, with Lard Nar steering it, and me playing familiar tunes on the guitar. Also Shloonktapooxis was in the back deck, still drunk from the party.

"You know what, Jil?"

"What? I'm getting older now, and I can feel my old virus coming back to me now, Lard Nar....I think I'm going to die soon. Very soon. What is it you were going to tell me? Say it now, before I have to go."

He was shocked, and seemed to cry when he heard I was dying again. It came back to me after the party, and now I'm always feeling the very, very old self I used to be. My bones were weakening, and I could hardly eat or drink without vomiting to death. I tried to keep that out of mind since I was so happy now in life, but the words spat out me when Lard Nar asked the question. He was also wondering where I was going. But unfortunately, he, Dib or anyone else I knew never found out.

"But...but.. DYING!? Again? I thought the body worked out fine, what happened?"

"Sometimes things in life are not worth and are unanswerable, not very clear to understand, not very clear at all...." I sighed, disappointed I did not give a clear answer to him, it shall remain a mystery forever to him.

I got on my hover-board and opened the door where I would jump off and fly away now, but I thought about what will be my last words to him. "I gotta go, make sure you take care of Scarlet well, I won't need her anymore. And don't come searching for me, I'll be fine on my own."

"WAIT! Before you leave, I wanna answer my question to you. It's important."

"Which is.....?"

When he said it, I left the ship and went far, far away into the Universe where no one would find me. I didn't want that to happen, but because of fate I led myself to an unknown place not any maps at all. I forgotten about Lard Nar's saying, and didn't care of what it meant, but until I got to the mysterious place, I thought about it, and realized he was right, but it would be too late for me too see it happen.

"It's now a Beginning of a freedom," His words stated, repeating forever more within me, "End of an Empire, Jil. Now it truly is."
