"Argh! Stupid machine!" yelled Zim angrily, as he pounded his fist on the computer inside the Voot Cruiser. "Why can't it locate "The Massive's" signal. The feed was fried, but I still should be able to lock onto its coordinates." After a while Zim gave up and opened the top of the Voot Cruiser and ventured out into the elements.

He climbed out and yelled over to GIR, who was lying on the ground making a snow angel, "Where is Tak!"

"She's inside the big hole thingy." GIR yelled. Zim then trudged over to the hole. It seemed to him that it had gotten even colder. Even the shield that his PAK provided him didn't help much. Zim arrived at the hole and gazed down.

Inside was an Irken transport ship. There was a massive dent in the side and also into the left engine. Tak was standing on top of it, using the spider legs of her PAK to clear off the remaining snow. Dib was studying the spot where the asteroid must have hit. Gaz was standing next to him playing Game Slave 2.

"What happened to it?" asked Zim. "I already told you, stupid, it was on its way to an agent of ours when an asteroid struck it and knocked it off course!" Tak yelled up to him.

"Who was the agent?" inquired Zim. "I don't know" said Tak as she used one of the spider legs to snap the door's hinges. "All I know is that he was killed by an Omega hit squad."

Zim jumped down into the hole and landed next to her "I thought I told you to stay the hell away!" shrieked Tak and hit him against the side of the hole. "This is supposed to be delicate equipment and I don't want you destroying it!"

Zim realized that arguing with her would be futile and stood outside waiting for her to return. 10minuets later she emerged carrying a small black strip no bigger than an Ipod. She climbed out of the hole, with Dib flowing her trying to see what she was holding. Zim followed the two of them. The wind was now blowing fiercely.

"Is that it?" asked Dib over the howling of the wind and the blowing snow. "How is that little thing going to save an empire!" Dib said, giving her a skeptical look.

"Shut up and get into my ship!" said Tak. She clicked something around her waist and the ship's cloaking device deactivated and the door opened. Her ship was about four times larger than Zim's Voot Cruiser and it was painted a shade of red and black, with the Irken symbol on the side. "C'mon!" she yelled to Zim and GIR "or I'll leave you here!" Zim and GIR ran into her ship along with Dib and Gaz. The electronic door closed behind them.

Tak went over to the computer and entered the coordinates and hit "enter". "Destination Accepted!" came the computer's voice and the ship took off.

"What about my "house" and cruiser" screamed Zim "I can't just leave them here!" Tak just shrugged it off

"We have more important things to worry about" said Tak casually. Zim just began to bang his head against the wall.

"Where are we going" asked Dib. "To a place where I can safely activate Project: Alpha" Tak said as she sat down and began to examine the sleek black contraption.

"What is it?" asked Dib as he sat down across from her. "This" she said "is the most powerful Inter-Galactic war machine ever built. It is composed of nano-atoms, a new technology recently developed by the Irkens. It takes massive amounts of matter and compresses it to a much smaller package. This particular one has many different forms, Omega being the most lethal."

The ship the veered sharply downward and hit the ground hard. "We're here." Said Tak as she hit a button and the door opened. GIR jumped out and landed hard on the ground. "You might want to wait for the ramp to go down." Said Tak with a smirk on her face. "Zim! Get over here!" Zim cautiously approached her, almost expecting to be hit again.

"What do you want?" said Zim in a scornful tone. Dib, Gaz, and GIR were all down the ramp by now.

"Listen." Said Tak "I may have been a little harsh on you before, but you have a tendency to…well destroy everything. I don't like to admit it, but I am going to need your help as well on this endeavor. So I will give you my trust until you prove to me otherwise. One chance, one ship, and one shot is all we get and if we fail…everybody fails…they will all be gone…gone for good. So don't fail…" said Tak as she advanced down the ramp "or I will make you sorry." Her attitude remerged as she stepped off the ramp and onto the field.

They had landed in the middle of a gigantic field with no sign of civilization in any direction. It was night by now and numerous stars dotted the sky. A gentle breeze blew across the grassy plains. It was a much different environment than the raging Arctic. It was almost…calming.

"Dib, Gaz come here I need to speak with you." said Tak as they approached her. "We are going to fight a war. The worst war the galaxy has ever seen. The odds are against us, but with Project Alpha we do have a fighting chance. I will not force you to come, but I will ask you. Will you please help us. We may die and you may never see your home-planet again, but know this, your planet may be next." Tak finished and stared at the two of them

"I'm going." Said Dib "It is my duty to protect the earth." Gaz gave him a look and said "Well if your going, I'm coming too because you'll die in a heartbeat without me there to save your ass." Dib gave Gaz a smile and said "We're in."

"Excellent." said Tak as she entered the user name into Project: Alpha. The small sleek black rectangle began to levitate. "Code?" inquired a mechanized voice "M-4 Beta" said Tak. A high pitch sound began resonating from it, as it began to glow a bright white light and rose quietly into the sky.

"Ummm…I think we had better run!" screamed Tak as she tore off through the field with the others following her. The sound grew louder.

"What's going on!" yelled a terrified Dib as he tried to keep up wit Tak. He could see the dew on the grass reflecting the white light, but he didn't dare look back.

"It's about to expand!" yelled Tak as she dove to the ground "Get down!" she screamed as the others took cover. They turned around to see Project: Alpha a mile into the air emitting a light like a miniature sun. For a split second everything went quiet and then an explosion of light, sound, and electricity rocked the ground they laid on.

Once the shaking had stopped and the dust had settled Dib pulled his head up from the dirt and looked to the sky and gasped in awe. Hovering high in the air was a massive Irken vessel approximately half the size of "The Massive".

"Hmmm." said Tak calmly it seems to have worked. The huge Irken ship just levitated there like a second moon eclipsing the spot where they stood. "Well that's our ride."

"Oh my God!" screamed Dib "How the hell…!" Dib went on ranting as Zim approached Tak.

"We should probably go, the humans anywhere remotely near here are probably thinking the world is ending." said Zim

"Yeah" agreed Tak "C'mon lets get to my ship, we can take it up to Project: Alpha. They all walked back to Tak's ship and took off heading upwards to Project: Alpha.

"Is this Alpha's largest form?" asked Zim "Ha!" laughed Tak "This is nothing compared to Omega form.

"Omega form was designed to wage wars on entire planets all by itself. The bad news is that the five of us can't operate Omega mode by ourselves. We need to go back home and recruit soldiers that know how to operate a ship. We also need a master controller. A master controller is needed in every mode." The ship docked with Project: Alpha. "The only problem is that I don't know much about this ship." said Tak as she gathered weapons from her ship. "So I don't I could do it."

"I can do it." said Gaz as she looked up from her Game Slave II. "But you don't know…" protested Zim. "Listen! I said I can do it and I can so shut up." They walked down the docking hallway and into the master control room of the ship. The ceiling was a few hundred feet tall and in the center there was a black throne with computers all around it. There were many others stations in the room and a huge window hundreds of feet tall and the width of the whole room.

"There's your seat." Tak said to Gaz as she pointed to the black throne. "The ship has over 1000 automatic guns and many other defense mechanisms. Everything is run from that seat, so don't screw up." Gaz walked over to the throne and sat down. She seemed to toy with it for a few minuets. Her hands moved lightning fast over the keyboards.

"There" she said "All weapons are online and shields are at full. I'm taking us into orbit" she said as she pulled on a strangely shaped joystick. The ship began to go higher and higher until the ship cleared the earth's atmosphere. Everyone else was sitting at a computer station except for GIR, who had his face pressed up against the glass.

"So" said Gaz "Where are we headed?"
