Chapter Eleven! -

Zim looked out the microwave door, shaking like a hyperactive seagull. He had tried to get out several times during the night, as was his Irken instinct of escape, but the microwave window was not large enough for him to fit through. He had then given up, and, hesitantly, gone to watch the television. He saw many old movies, and some infomercials, which scared him, so he turned them off. He had then raided the cupboard, and eaten some chips and all the sodas. Which probably explained why he was rather jittery at the moment.

Zim spun around as the microwave opened and Rin stepped through. She was wearing an apron, which was covered in mysterious dark red splotches.

"Hey, Not-So-Sleepy-Head! Time to come out! I made waffles out of pancake batter! PWAFFLES!!" she ran inside and dragged him out, closing the microwave behind them.

"By the moose, what is your name again? Is it the same as Zimm's?" she asked, walking to the kitchen table where Zimm, Rei, Purple, Dib and Gaz where already seated at, the latter two rather nervously.

Zim shook her hand off and flitted about the room, his body trying to get rid of all the pent up energy inside him. "Yes, I sure am ZIM! The greatest Invader in the Irken Elite! Conqueror of Worlds! Defender of Irk! Even though Irk needs no defence since Irk is THE most powerful planet EVER! Whole GALAXIES cower at the very MENTION of the name! Irk, Irk, Irk, Irk..."

Rei looked at him oddly, and then reached over to her coffee. Zimm looked through the earth paper, and Purple read through the Irken one. Rin made more pwaffles, and set them on the table, where Dib poked at them hesitantly, and Gaz continued her game.

Zim sat down and stared at the pwaffles.

"Want some?" Rin asked suddenly, waving a plate of pwaffles in his face.

Zim turned to her, and shook his head no. Rin shrugged, and sat in her chair, where she presently began stuffing pwaffles into her face.

Zim twitched, walked quickly to the couch and sat on it. He covered his face with his hands, obviously in deep thought. He had to think, he had to do something... he had to... or else he was surely lost. He rubbed the middle of his forehead, and thought. What to do, what to do...

"Hey!"

Zim shot up into the air a few feet, and turned around to see Rei and Rin standing next to the couch.

Rin pushed Zim lightly. "Scoot over, Zim. We wanna watch the telly." she said.

Zim glowered and got off the couch. He strode over to the kitchen, using his usual military step. Purple glanced at him oddly.

"You walk funny." he said pointedly. Zim paused, scowled, and walked to the table, this time in a more normal fashion. He sat down and looked around. Dib was staring at him.

"What are you looking at, Dib-filth?" Zim snapped in his usual tone of voice.

Dib glared at Zim. "I want to know what happened and why we're here. You did this, didn't you? Why? Huh? Huh? Huh?"

Zim opened his mouth to yell at Dib some more, but stopped. Well... he had a right to know what had happened, didn't he?

"Fine." Zim snapped. "But I don't remember everything. AND I AM NOT GOING TO REPEAT MYSELF, SO LISTEN UP."

Zimm and Purple looked up at him and put their papers down. In the living room, Rin and Rei turned down the television and turned towards the kitchen, antenna twitching a bit to listen.

Zim faltered a bit at this sudden show of attention from the Rebels. He cleared his throat importantly, and began. "Well, it all began BECAUSE OF THE DIB-HUMAN'S FAULT!!" he yelled, pointing at Dib. Dib clenched his teeth.

"Don't blame me for this, Zim! We all know that if you hadn't built that THING WE WOULDN'T EVEN BE HERE!"

Rin raised her hand a bit. "Erm... I didn't know that." she said lightly.

Dib let out an exhasperated breath and threw his hands in the air. Purple glanced at Zim and flicked his hand. "Please, continue."

Zim looked up at him and nodded respectfully. "As I was saying... Dib had thrown water at me for no reason whatsoever!"

Dib raised his hands to protest again, but was interrrupted as Rin let out a mock-horror gasp from the couch.

"Gasp!" she yelled. "Oh no he didn't!"

Zim nodded. "Oh yes he did!" he said, unnaware of Rin's mocking tone.

Zimm leaned forward in his seat. "So you did all this because you got wet?" he asked Zim in disbelief.

Zim looked at him scathingly. "Oh yes. I had forgotten. Irkens here are... different." Zim looked pointedly at Zimm and Purple's lack of PAKs as he said this. After a moment, he returned to his talking.

"Irkens in my dimension have not been born naturally for millennia. We have developed a more advanced process, eliminating all natural reproductive abilities," a few of the rebels in the room gasped at this, "and we have to resort to PAKs to live. Most of us have an allergic reaction to water. So. After Dib threw water at me, I VOWED MY REVENGE. And so, I created a device to transport him HERE. But, his humongous head messed everything up! AND NOW WE ARE HERE, AND IT IS ALL DIB'S SLORKING FAULT!!!"

Dib leapt to his feet. "NO IT IS NOT!"

Zim stood on the table. "YES IT IS!!"

Dib stood on the table as well, and glared at Zim. "NUH-UH!!"

"YEAH-HUH!!!"

"NUH-UH!!!"

"YEEAAH-HUUH!!!!"

"NUH-UHHH!!!!"

"BOTH OF YOU SHUT UP!"

Zim and Dib looked at Purple in shock, and stared for a moment. They both sat down. Rin walked into the kitchen.

"So, all you have to do is make another polydimensional teleportation device, yes?"

Zim looked up at her and chuckled sheepishly.

"Heh heh... well.. I would... if I knew how..."

Zimm frowned and narrowed his eyes. "Didn't you write it down?"

Zim drew himself up.

"NO. I am ZIM!! I need not write it down! I have IMPECCABLE MEMORY!!"

"So you know how to do it?" Rei asked as she walked into the kitchen as well.

Zim slumped in his chair. "No. I forgot."

"What happened to Mister 'I-have-impeccable-memory'?" Dib asked tauntingly.

Zim glared at him. "I hit my superior head! How am I to be expected to remember this!? And besides, it's all YOUR HEAD'S FAULT!!"

"IS NOT!"

"IS TOO!"

"IS NOT!"

"IS TOO!"

"SHUT UUUUPPPP!!!!" Purple yelled again.

Zim growled and began hitting his head on the table. After a few moments he stopped and beggan hitting Dib's head on the table.

"Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow!" Dib cried as Zim slammed his head into the surface of the table.

Purple leaned over and parted them both. "Stop it, you two! It's getting really annoying!"

Rei thought a bit. "Well... human technology might get you to your place..."

Zim, Dib, and even Gaz looked up at her.

"Human technology?!" Zim asked in disbelief.

Rei nodded. "Some human guy... Proffesor Membrane is currently working on a theory... it not tested yet, but-"

"Proffesor Membrane!? He's my dad!" Dib yelled proudly.

"Oh really?" Rin asked. "Do you think you might get me tickets to 'Probing the Membrane of Science'? 'Cuz I really-"

Suddenly Rin paused. Her antenna twitched lightly. "Do you guys hear that?"

Purple looked up. "Oh, it's those other kids! Must be awake..."

Purple got up and walked towards the drawers. He opened one, and out came Dibb and Gazz, both in considerable distress.

"Eeeewww! Ohmahgawd!! Ohmahgawd!! MY HAIR IS A MESS!!! I worked so hard on it! Wait... I'M MISSING MY BARRETES!!!" Gazz squealed piteously.

Gaz glared at her doppleganger for a moment and returned to her game.

Dibb stood up shakily and faced Purple, fists up. "I'm still not scared of you! I warn you, my father is a very important man! He'll come for us!"

Purple glared at him. "We are NOT GOING TO HURT YOU! Now shut up before I hurt you!"

Dibb and Gazz shut up immediately. Rin snickered.

"Purple, that made no sense!"

"Nyeeeh...." Purple intoned as he glared at Dibb and Gazz skeptically.

"Well... what now?" Dib asked. No one responded, everyone merely looked around confused, hoping the other had an idea. Zimm began leafing through the paper again.

Rei sighed. "Well... maybe we could use the human's technology. We would have to do it in stealth, though..."

Rei stopped as Zimm let out a surprised squeak and fell out of his chair. Everyone turned to look at him, and he righted himself quickly.

"Lookit that! Look at it!" he cried, pointing at the human newspaper.

Purple gaped and read the headline.

"Proffesor Membrane's Children Kidnapped. Membrane Vows That He Will Find And Avenge Them No Matter The Consequences."

A few moments of silence passed. Gazz took this moment to say the first, and probably the last intelligent sentence in this fic.

"See? He IS coming for us! You are all in SO much trouble..."
