"Greetings, my Tallest," spoke a female voice on a purple planet far, far away from Earth. It was Tak, communicating with her Irken leaders through a makeshift computer phone.
"Tak?" Red inquired in disbelief. "I thought Zim killed you."
"No, but he DID knock me out of my ship and destroy my SIR unit's memory." She stepped to the side so the Tallest could see Mimi, who was in a Gir-like state drawing Irken smiley faces in the extraterrestrial soil.
"So," Purple continued, "what do you want?"
"I want to prove myself as an Irken Invader," she announced proudly. "Revenge on Zim wouldn't be so bad, either."
"Revenge on Zim, huh?" Red repeated deviously. Then he got an idea, which he relayed to Purple in a whisper.
Purple grinned evilly. "Well, Zim's still banished to that 'Earth' place. Last we heard of him, he was engaged to an Earth-creature with a really big head."
"Yes. Zim said HORRIBLE things about the Irken Empire before we cut all contact with him, though," Red added, "and he should be punished for slandering our superior name!"
"Leave it to me!" Tak exclaimed. "I will prove my worth to the Irken race by punishing Zim for insulting our honor!"
"Sure, go ahead," Purple permitted evasively. "This ought to be interesting…" He cut the transmission.
"How can you agree to that?" Red asked. "She's too SHORT to be a worthwhile Invader!"
"But she did promise us snacks a long time ago."
"Eh, she's taller than Skooge was. She might make a good edition to the Empire."
"Better her than Zim…"
As the Tallest continued their conversation, Tak took apart the computer phone to rebuild her escape pod. When she finished, she grabbed Mimi (who was dancing to a tuneless beat) and threw the little SIR into the back of the pod.
"You'll pay, ZIM!" she swore, launching the escape pod off the deserted planet and deep into outer space.
