Author Notes: I don't own Invader Zim, or its Characters.

I've got the 3rd chapter up so kudos to me. It took a while seeing as I have school and stuff like that. But I'm glad you guys like this story. I'm working on making an art for this fic but it's really tough so be patient!

Arigato!

CH 3 – Quality Family Time

"We're your WHAT?" Gaz stepped forward and glared at the two, "You both better be joking or else I'll knock your lights out!"

Zim grabbed Gaz's arm and pulled her back

"Calm down Gaz, we'll have to just interrogate them and see if they're telling the truth."

Gaz huffed and looked at the twins again. This time taking note they had antennas coming out from their heads, but the hair surrounding them made the antennas look camouflaged, she grabbed Zim by his shirt collar.

"I wanna ask the first question then!" she looked at Zion and took a deep breath, "You! Boy! Name all the things you know about me!"

Zion sighed and began counting

"You're maiden name is Gaz Membrane, when you were a kid you liked playing video games, you hate Uncle Dib..."

"Everyone knows that!"

Zion took another sigh, "...and you got a little mole between your legs near your..."

Gaz covered his mouth and blushed furiously

"HOW DO YOU KNOW?"

Zim blinked, "I didn't even know that..."

Gaz released Zion and crossed her arms

"That doesn't mean you're my kid! You got a lot to prove!"

Zion reached into his coat pocket and pulled out 2 pictures

"Here's your proof, one picture is of your wedding, and the other one is a family photo."

Gaz looked at the first picture; she was in a long white wedding dress. Zim was in a black tuxedo with his arms wrapped around her waist.

"Zim...it's us."

She showed him the picture and he nodded.

"That's us alright..."

They looked at the second photo; Zim was holding a young boy over his shoulders while Gaz was hugging a little girl. The kids looked like smaller versions of the teens before them.

"See! We are your kids."

Gaz looked up at Kirei and smiled.

"I have a daughter...and a son!"

She wiped a tear away and clapped her hands together.

"You two better have been raised right, I won't be happy to hear bad things about you two!"

Zion rolled his eyes, "We've been good, but anyway we're here for an important matter!"

Zim cleared his throat.

"Right, what's this all about? What's wrong in the Future?"

Zion sat next to Kirei. The silence, it burned.

"Well after you guys beat the Tallests, and then Zeke became the ruler, there's been a rebellion stirring."

"If you mean the rebellion against Red and Purple, then that's already over."

Zion shook his head, "No dad I mean a rebellion against Zeke! Only after a few months of ruling, a big war broke out on Irk and the Armada lost. There's a new ruler up on Irk now."

Zim became shocked.

"No wonder I've stopped getting transmissions from Zeke."

"Yeah, this new ruler calls himself Blue, he led the rebels against Zeke, We heard he killed Zeke and took over in one swipe."

Gaz interrupted, "Well then I guess you want Zim and I to go to Irk and kill this Blue guy?"

Zion shook his head again.

"In a way yes but you have to do more than that, he's planning on taking over the whole universe. That also includes the different time strings." He held out the Time Fuse, "He has one that looks almost like this. His is flawed slightly, it only allows you to stay in the past for 30 minutes where as the one mom has made can last forever."

Gaz took the stick and looked it over.

"I made THIS? I made a thing that can let people travel to the past!"

She became fascinated with her future work to pay attention to Zion.

"Yeah, anyway he might try to take over this time line. You two are the only ones who can stop his plans. He has probably already sent Alex and Keiko after us..."

Zion dropped his gaze to the floor and became solemn, as did Kirei.

"Who are Alex and Keiko?" Zim asked

"Our cousins."

Zim and Gaz exchanged looks, then they both looked at Zion and Kirei.

"...cousins?"

Kirei nodded, "Yes...they-"

Suddenly a bright flash came into the room and two dark figures came out from another rip in time. One jumped at Zion but he got out a small dagger and blocked the enemy's own blade. Zion growled and pushed him back.

The second enemy lunged at Kirei but was easily knocked back with a kick. The two figures stood back to back, as the light faded their faces came into focus.

One was a male that looked about 2 years older than Zion and Kirei. He had black hair and wore almost the same attire as the twins. The other was a girl who seemed about Kirei's age. She also had black hair and the same clothing.

The male spoke, "Zion, Kirei, it's great to see you guys again. Too bad that it had to be under these circumstances."

Zion smiled, "What circumstance is it this time Alex?"

"The usual, we try and murder you!"

"Before you do that you might wanna take a chill pill. Your dad would be furious if you killed his niece and nephew."

Alex turned his attention to Dib, who returned the stare.

"No...you can't possibly be..."

Dib stumbled with his words. Alex hid his dagger and looked at Dib with a nervous smile.

"Oh man, is it really my father?"

Everyone who was not from the future gasped out and noticed that Alex looked like a miniature Dib, The only difference was that Alex had no glasses, and he had a pair of antennas jutting out from his head , same went for Keiko.

"You guys are seriously my kids? Where the heck did you get antennas from?"

Dib walked over cautiously and gently touched Alex's antenna, it twitched and Dib stepped back from surprise.

"I got the antennas from mom's side of the family."

"Mom? Who is your mom?" Dib held his breath waiting.

Alex looked at Keiko, she nodded.

"Go ahead and tell him." She encouraged.

Alex looked back to his father and breathed out one single name.

"Tak"

Wow it's getting suspenseful. Ok working on Chapter 4, sayonara folks.
