Disclaimer I don't own Invader Zim in any capacity.
Hopefully you read the apology in the last chapter.
I say that cause I have no way of knowing if you do.
There might be and I haven't found it yet but giving me such power is stupid.
Honestly I struggle to stay moderately stable but you'e already seen how that goes.
Greetings and welcome back, I see you've been doing great for yourself. Staying out of trouble I hope and not being a menace to those that surround you.
That's good to hear cause it would be bad if you got in trouble cause some minor issue. Great to hear your all staying out of trouble. I wouldn't want to hear that anybody was arrested.
We need more good in the world and less you know trouble. Speaking of trouble do you who is struggling with staying out of trouble as we speak?
Invader Tenn who as we speak is locked up on Meekrob. It's almost like something happened that caused her to be caught and locked away with no hope of escaping.
Surely you all know what I am referring to when I say that. Yeah she's in quite the situation if you were to ask me. To top it all off she is for lack of better terms being tortured by one of The Meekrob.
For quite a long time to might I add. How long I hear you ask me through the screen? Not that long only about uh you know one year. Some of the days weren't that bad but others were painful.
Then again being tortured wouldn't really have any good days would it? I have it under good authority that Tenn would probably agree to that statement.
Granite anybody who's been tortured by floating aliens who might or might not be able to transform into weird shoe things would agree. Huh that is probably the weirdest sentence I have said yet.
There might be perks to being an irken invader but this was not one of them. She was wishing that she was anywhere but there. Don't blame her cause I'd sorta feel the same way.
She is also probably grateful that her pak heals her somewhat. While it keeps her alive it also keeps this pain from continuing. I guess it's a dual edged sword that pak is am I right?
Tenn struggled quite a lot while on Meekrob but this was far more than she'd thought it would be. Little did she know that there was a larger meaning to her being tortured.
Only issue is that she had to escape in order to find that out. Can she get out or will she not, the answer to this is uh..in the story for you to read obviously.
Let us dive in and see for ourselves if she can escape or if she fails to escape. I hope you enjoy cause this might start out confusing but will get better over time..hopefully.
We begin with nothing but silence filling some large dark room. It was here that we see the pod that was holding Invader Tenn. At first glance it doesn't look like much but that will change.
We see Tenn struggling to keep her eyes open for some time while looking around the room. Her vision was all blurry to do some reason but it was unknown what that reason was.
Probably from all the torture or it might be sleep deprivation I never am able to tell the difference. That not's good I should do some research and try to fix that.
Whatever it is shouldn't matter until later when it actually does. Tenn on the other hand tried to pry open the pod but that went poorly as it didn't move at all.
More silence filled the room until the door opens and it's here where we see a figure make the lights in the room switch on. He stares at the pod for a minute before heading over to it.
The Figure was one of the Meekrob and while he headed over to Tenn he was mumbling to himself. "This should've been easy. "She is making you look like a fool.
"One that the others would laugh at. "Even though thier dead set on keeping this one alive. The Meekrob continues on as he gets more mad as he turned his attention to Tenn.
"I see your still breathing. The Meekrob says in a annoyed tone at the invader. "You have somehow survived everything I've used in the hopes that you can escape.
"You..know me..always looking to..disappoint sickos like you. "Though..you probably see that..as a compliment. Tenn manages to say through pained breathing while staring at The Meekrob.
"That's funny seeing how your the one who's trying to conquer this planet and enslave us all. "Who knows you'd might've even tried to kill us for resisting for this long.
"No way I'd let an irken do that do us. "I unlike my wrist slapping colleagues won't hesitate to kill you. "Such a task is difficult to do to you because your pak keeps healing you.
"Do you not realize that in doing that, it's making this worse for you. "Your also beginning to reach my last nerve. "It was funny at first but after a month it's getting annoying.
"It's..been..a..year. Tenn manages to say after hesitating due to coughing aggressively. "Give or take. "Never really was good on time. "Not..good at..killing either.
"Funny your a real comedian. "I try my best. "You should've known that this would end up happening to you. "You should've stayed on Irk with your fellow leech's.
"I am only here..cause My Tallest sent me.. the wrong thing. "That's a real shame for you isn't it. "That one mistake will end up being the cause of your death.
"Keep..dreaming. "I won't need to. "You've been a persistent thorn in my side for far to long. "Today is where that ends. "I've heard..you say that..a lot over the last year.
"I am still..here and not going..anywhere anytime soon. "You should learn to not be stubborn. "I expected after all this time you'd get that through your head.
"Granite I expect to much out of a lot of people. "Apart from that do you know how long it takes to find stuff to to use to try and kill you. "Not to mention keeping you hidden from the others.
"I'd use our stuff but that would only raise suspicion. "Hiding it from them wouldn't be any easier. The Meekrob says ranting to himself about issues he is having.
"Your also lucky I don't want to risk taking off that pak of yours. "Doing such a thing will let everybody else know where you are. "Whoever made that thing the way that it is had known something like this would end up happening.
"Sounds..like..your..afraid. "Afraid..of..the..consequences..of what..you've..done. "Cause I'd be terrified. "I'd be afraid of The Armada sending people to find me.
"I am not afraid. "To think such a thing is foolish on your part. "Whatever..you..say. "I am only saying that you..better kill me. "Cause they..will do things to you..that you wouldn't believe.
"Enough of your prattle. "You've been determined to stay alive in the hopes that you'd be saved by your fellow irkens. "I hate to break it to you but that's never going to be the case.
"Soon I'll no longer have to worry about you. "The others they'd never approve of my methods but they know nothing. "They would've given you a mere slap on the wrist and sent you home.
"Cowards they are. "Each and every last one of them. "You shouldn't be given a chance to walk away. "No I believe in a different type of way getting rid of you.
The Meekrob places some fancy tube on the side of the panel controlling the pod. "This tool better do me wonders. "After what I had to do to it should.
"That..isn't going to kill me. "Everything..you've..tried using..against me failed. "That is what you think. "This is far different from the other tools I've used.
"This tube will send out a beam of concurrent Mkd energy into your brain. "I had to search day and night to find this. "The others would not be pleased with how I got it.
"There is no way that pak can heal you from this. "You..know nothing..about..our tech. "Even irken tech has a limit and this is what I will use it break that limit and rid this planet of you.
We see The Meekrob say before twisting a few nobs and pulls a lever up using his fancy mind powers. It is here where a beam of purple electricity shoots up into the pod and into Tenn's head.
This causes her to start shaking like crazy as she tries to scream in pain but isn't able to. She falls to the ground and is at this rate curled up in a ball shaking.
The Meekrob looks behind him to see a monitor showing Tenn's Vitals and is not amused. Enraged he twists the nob even further causing a larger beam to enter the pod.
Eventually Tenn is still shaking but not nearly as much as before. When The Meekrob looks back he is slightly more amused. This sicko had managed to damage Tenn's Pak slightly.
Thus causing an extreme amount of pain that was not able to be healed. She laid there coughing up a small amount of blood after what had happened to her.
Wasn't all bad though because in doing that The Meekrob destroyed the tube and did a lot of damage to the panel of the pod. Guess not only did he hurt Tenn and her pak but the thing keeping her locked up.
"Ugh this can't be. "That stupid machine of hers overcharged the beam. "The Tallest must have given her and her colleagues some sort of upgrade.
"Apart from that I have finally found out what I need to get rid of her. "I will need more of it though in order to reach the desired result. "I'll have to call him and tell him what happened.
"He needs to give me more. "I also need an update on how he can get me out of here safely. "Before any of them know what I am doing.
"If only they'd see stuff like this through more often. "Then we'd no longer have to worry about our way of life and others around us belonging to them.
"You stay right there, I'll be back with the tools required to finally free us from you. "Hopefully then you'll stop being stubborn and finally die like the leech that you are.
The Meekrob says as he floats his way out of the room and goes to find more of what he needs to continue his sick twisted form of an execution.
It felt like years until Tenn manages to wake up it's but not where she thinks. She had woke up to see herself in some random field. "Huh where am I? She says while not realizing that she's dreaming or something close to it.
She was still on Meekrob but it was where on the planet that made her concerned. "Is this..my base? "How'd I get up here? She says as she starts to hear noises in the distance.
Tenn looked to see exactly what it was and when she saw she definitely wished she'd he didn't see it. What she saw was those malfunctioning robots that ruined her mission.
"No..not those things again. "Thought I'd never have to see those things again. "This..this is fine I escaped them once I'll do it again. We hear Tenn say as she tries to avoid getting caught.
I imagine when Tenn sees the person who switched those labels she's more than likely going to kill him. Giving how every bad thing in the series and in this story that happened to her was because of him.
Hm interesting I'll have to save that idea down for you know..future reference. Moving back to Tenn we see her stare at the robots in a confused manner while slowly moving back.
She was waiting for any of them to start moving in her direction. This lasted for about fifteen seconds before they all sprang to life and started to make all those weird noises.
Tenn gasped and froze in place as she didn't want to let them know where she was. This didn't work at all cause once one of them saw her it started walking over to her.
It was still making those noises and to make matters worse the other ones started to head over to her. Without hesitation Tenn sprints away from them.
She ran for quite awhile but it seemed like she wasn't losing them at all. No way they could be faster than her as they were malfunctioning and couldn't operate as programmed.
Yet somehow they are able to keep up with Tenn who doesn't have this issue. Logic am I right..who am I kidding it's a stupid question for me to ask.
Tenn continued running but eventually reached a dead end. A dead end that wasn't a cliff that she could fall off but it was one that she couldn't see.
She kept running but managed to run right into what seemed like an invisible wall. "What? Tenn tried to run again but hit the same invisible wall. "There isn't anything blocking this path.
We see Tenn hit the wall repeatedly and it does nothing. "I don't have time for this. "Ugh there's nothing here. "What else could be blocking my way out of here?
Tenn turns and sees the robots we're getting closer to her. "No this can't be happening..this can't be happening. She says to herself while desperately hitting the invisible wall.
They were getting to close for her pak lasers to be an option cause they were that close. "Stay back all of you. "I said stay back. "I won't hesitate to destroy you all if you get any closer.
Tenn says as the robots stare at her while twitching like crazy. Like an unsettling amount of awkward silence was made from all this and it was a little scary.
None of the robots moved as it seemed as they had managed to obey what Tenn had said. "Alright good stay right there and I'll head this way ok. "Do not follow me..that is an order.
Still no response as Tenn began to move past them. When she walked past them she kept her eyes on them. Not to long after she started walking she hit another invisible wall.
"You have got to be kidding me. Tenn says infuriated as she hits the invisible wall with anger. She looks back to see the robots we're all surrounding her.
"Hey uh what did I say about following me? "Stay back get away from me. The robots ignored this as they started going crazy again and getting even closer.
We see one of them even climb on her head as the others start to do the same thing. "HEY GET OFF OF ME! "UGH WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING!
One of the robots on her head turns it's hand into a circular saw blade. No doubt this answered Tenn's question. All we hear is a scream before they all bring her to the ground.
Thankfully for Tenn and for you the robots fade into smoke before doing anything. "What..where'd they go? "Alright something weird is definitely going on here.
The Invader stands up before looking around the area. She eventually sees something to her right. That would end up being The Meekrob that had her locked up floating while in the process of speaking to two other figures.
She was able to slightly see who The Meekrob was talking to after getting closer. It was Deiol and his Dad who stood there without even noticing Tenn was there.
It was like she was invisible seeing how she was standing right next to them. "Did you get the thing I asked for? "Yes we did. "Me and my Dad went through a lot getting you this.
"You better be able to kill her with this. "Mkd energy. "This should be powerful enough to kill her. "Honestly you'd have to be pretty stupid to mess up with this.
"Trust me I will rid us both of her. "Then you and your dad will find me a way off of Meekrob and away from my colleagues. "Only if you kill her. "Anything less and I'll go ahead and tell your colleagues what it is your doing.
"Ugh is there no middle ground with you? "No there never is with him. "If he won't listen to me..his own Dad then not a chance he will listen to you.
"Does he always act like this? "Yes he does. "Trying to reason with him is like talking to a toddler. "I see I once had a friend who acted the same way.
"Enough both of you. "Listen to me and listen good. "Either you kill her or you'll be left alone to deal with the consequences of what you've been doing.
"Alright but you should know that I am only doing this cause I am desperate. "Believe me I know. "Such determination to remain safe from they'll do to you.
"I almost feel bad. "Seeing how you've failed at doing something as easy as killing an irken I feel little pity for you. "You know what is giving me an issue.
"I have no time for excuses Maild. "She's been locked up in that pod for a full year and she's still alive. "Not mention the time before we arranged this deal of ours.
"Yes but all those mistakes aside I promise she'll be dead by the end of this week. "Hm ok but if she isn't then you'll have explaining to do to me and the rest of your meekrob friends.
"Believe me it will be done. "When it is you better keep you end of the bargain. "Cause I'll make sure that you cower in fear like the child you are if you don't.
"I keep my promises..do you? After Deiol said that he his Dad and Maild disappear in the same smoke Tenn saw earlier. "What is going on? "Who was that guy wearing the mask?
"Whoever it is gave Maild what he needs to try and kill me. "It seems like he really doesn't want the other meekrob to know what he is doing. "My question is how did they get Mkd Energy?
"Surely they know of the side effects. "Brain hemorrhages, Hallucinations, and long term damaged nerves that persist throughout ones entire body.
"Wait hold on this is a hallucination of some sorts. Tenn after she says that snaps out of the hallucination that she had. She loses her balance and falls to the ground.
She must have ignored all the pain she was in due to hallucinating. We see Tenn on the ground face first sounding angry at the fact that she was still on Meekrob.
"I never though I'd say this but I miss hallucinating. She says while still feeling a sharp pain throughout her body. It wasn't nearly as bad as it was before.
"Don't think I should be having blurred vision. "Wait how'd I get out the pod? "Could I have opened it somehow? Tenn looks around to see nobody in the room with her.
"Though how would I have done that? "Either this is another hallucination or something bad is happening here. Tenn stares at the door and sees that it's been left open.
"Did he forget to close the door or is this a game he's trying to play? She reluctantly walked over and left the room. There was nobody in sight and was more than grateful for whatever opened the door.
Maild was nowhere in sight and while that was concerning that was the least of her concern. No that would be how she was going to actually leave this place and return somewhere safe.
"There should be a way out of here. "Only question is where? We see Tenn struggle to move down the hallway while trying to stay hidden.
She quickly hides in a corner while two Meekrob float by her and into the room she had left. They didn't see her as she sneaks past and continues on trying to find a way out.
As she continues on she crouches below a window overseeing a large room. It's here that she sees two figures talking to each other. One of them was Maild who's head is down while being lectured.
While he was being lectured he kept looking behind him. He was like a kid who was caught by his parents after being bad in school. The way he was acting was far different than before.
The Other Meekrob that was lecturing Maild was female but all that was noticeable was her look of anger. "Do you know the reason your here? "Not at all. "Perhaps you could inform me?
"Don't play stupid, you know what we found. "The irken that you were hiding from us. "The one that was never given a fair chance at defending herself.
"No offense but she doesn't deserve that chance. "She would've had us all killed and or enslaved. "I was merely protecting us. "A noble cause but do remember that we're not monsters like them.
"Torturing and killing her while understandable is against everything we stand for. "We do not wish to be seen as evil. "Not to mention you hid this from us for over a year.
"Do I have to bring up you using Mkd energy. "Surely you couldn't have forgot it would leave traces of it in the air? "I had my suspicions but never thought it would if it was condensed enough.
"How'd you even get a hold of this in the first place? "I found it myself. "No that can't be true. "There is no way you found this on your own. "You were given this but by who is the question?
"We'll find that out soon but in the meantime your to give that irken an apology. "Once she leaves you are to explain yourself to rest of us as to your reasons behind this.
"I will do no such thing. "You might not see any point in torturing her but I do. "If I hadn't done than we'd be at risk of being killed. "Thus rendering our morales utterly pointless.
"HOW DO YOU NOT GET THAT! "I see your concern but we're not looking to be like them. Two meekrob proceed to enter the room and inform The Female Meekrob about Tenn escaping.
"She escaped. "WHA..HOW! Maild shouts out in shock and anger. "Eager to apologize I see. "No far from it. "How did she escape that pod? "It was uh broken beyond repair.
"Yeah the Mkd energy must've destroyed it. "Ugh he told me this wouldn't be the CASE! "Seems like whoever gave you it didn't count the amount that was used.
"Find her and bring her to us. "She'll be wanting to leave as soon as possible. Tenn sees all this and doesn't know what to think. She wanted to go and see if The Female Meekrob had genuinely wanted to lend a hand.
She also didn't want any part in going near Maild after what he's done to her. Knowing that she wasn't taking any chances and continues to go and find some way of escaping.
Tenn kept walking through the hallway hoping to find a way out of here but found nothing. "There must some way out of here. "A ship, escape pod, secret teleporter.
"Honestly anything at this point will be great. Tenn says as she heads into another corridor trying to find something that'll get her off of Meekrob.
She wasn't going to be stubborn cause she wanted to leave of course. More than anything after the year she had to go through. Here was hoping she manages to get what she wants.
We see Tenn walk down yet another corridor in the hopes of getting out off this planet alive. She eventually sees a door that led outside and into a courtyard that had a view of the sky.
Granite Tenn didn't have interest in staring at the stars. No that would be wanting to get as far away from Meekrob as she could. The only issue with that is she doesn't know where to look.
She looked around hoping that there was a ship that she could steal. The Meekrob see no need for having ships to fly them around meaning this was going to be quite the challenge.
"Alright there might be something at my base. "Issue is I don't know if they have cameras watching me. "Doubt they would but it wouldn't shock me if they did.
As Tenn started to leave the courtyard she's stopped by a voice calling out to her. It was not one that she was wanting to hear. It was Maild who was in no mood to be friendly to the invader.
"Where do you think your going? He said full of hatred at seeing Tenn out of the pod she was locked in. "Don't know. "Definitely not staying here that's for sure.
"That's what you think. "Your not going anywhere not after I got lectured by my superiors for doing what I did. "There debating on locking me up for a year as punishment.
"Not only that but their forcing me to say sorry to you. "I heard everything. "I was outside hiding and listening in on the conversation. "Then you know she wants you to leave safely.
"Yeah but I don't trust her. "Also don't trust you'll say sorry for what you did to me. "Believe me she is a lot of things but a liar isn't one. "As for the apology that is not the reason I am here.
"Then what is it? "I saw you sneaking away once I had left that room. "I followed you hoping that you'd get lost or end up somewhere that was hidden off from the others.
"That way I'd be able to kill you myself. "Don't you have orders to follow? "Yes but the thing is I have no intention on obeying those orders. "Not after I was made a fool of by you.
"Your little tools and trinkets couldn't kill me. "What makes you think you'll do any better. Tenn says insulting Maild with as much hatred as he gave her.
"Believe me a meekrob's powers are beyond anything you've seen before. "Seeing how you've made me look like a joke. "There is no chance your leaving here alive.
Maild says before throwing part of the ground in the direction of Tenn. She dives to the right in order to dodge the rock hitting her. Another rock was thrown at her and she dodges it by diving right yet again.
"Have you forgot how to stay still? "Seeing how you were in that pod for a full year I'd expect you to remember. "Like I said I enjoy not giving sickos like you what you want.
"Funny you call me sick when your entire species are nothing but a bunch of senile narcissistic leech's. "My only issue with killing you is that I'll only be able to do it once.
"Go ahead and kill me if you can. "It would amaze me if you'd be able to kill anything. "Let alone an irken invader. "When I get out I intend on making Deiol regret ever lended you a hand.
"That child and his dad are next after I am done with you. "Seeing how they sold me out despite me saying I'd rid us both of you. "Seems like they saw you for the joke that you are.
Tenn after saying that was knocked back into one of the pillars in the courthouse. She was then thrown into a fountain in the middle of the courtyard.
She was obviously in a lot of pain after this was done. "Who exactly do you think you are saying that I am the joke? Tenn during Maild's monologuing shakes her head trying to keep herself conscious.
"You should've learned that insulting me won't get you anything but pain. "To bad you were to stubborn to get that through your head. Tenn manages to get to one knee but was still struggling to stand.
Maild went over to where Tenn was at and tried to hurt her again but Tenn had a trick up her sleeve. She had thrown dirt in the meekrob's eyes but it didn't do anything to him.
Tenn looked at Maild after doing that and questioned what the point of throwing the dirt was. Maild on the other hand stared back at Tenn and looked enraged that she would try that against him.
He lifted Tenn up and throwed her against another pillar where Maild proceeds to shoot a beam of energy at Tenn. It looked like lightning but it ended up being a laser of some sort.
"It is over for you. "Die like the leech that you are. Maild says as the beam hits Tenn while she was pinned against the wall by the Meekrob. Tenn had no other option during any of this.
This beam unlike the Mkd Energy wasn't able to prevent Tenn from screaming in pain. It felt like she being tased but the taser was far more painful it would usually be.
Maild continued this for about a minute before it was stopped. Not by Tenn and not by him but by The Female Meekrob from earlier who had used some sort of tool to attack Maild.
"Ugh..wha..Qalal what..do you think your doing? "I am making sure you don't kill her. The Female Meekrob says as she moves further inside the courtyard.
"Your protecting her? "From you yes. "Seeing how I had specifically told you to not kill her. "If I recall correctly I remember giving you orders to apologize to her and that's it. "Guess I was right to think you couldn't be trusted.
"Hence the reason I am here. "You can't do this after what she's tried to do to us "What is wrong with you? "Have you lost all sense of what we stand for? "You know I had my reasons.
"She is to dangerous..to much of an obstacle in our way. A beam exits the tool Qalal was using and hits Maild. This causes pain to the Meekrob as the beam hit him.
"You bring shame to me Maild. "To think I expected more from you. "You..can you stand? Qalal says while staring directly at Tenn. Tenn didn't want to say anything but really didn't have a choice.
She didn't want to push her luck and see if The Female Meekrob would actually hurt or not. That being said she nervously responds to the question asked of her.
"Y..yes? "Good to see your alive. "Our apologies for Maild's behavior. "Uh thanks? "You are most welcome. "You hurt? "I feel bruised and cut up but apart from that I am fine.
"That is good to hear. "Maild do you have anything that you wish to say? "No I don't. A third beam exits the tool and causes even more pain to Maild.
"UGH..FINE I AM SORRY OK! "Try saying it a little less aggressive. "I..am sorry. "Sorry for what I did to you. "It was a grave mistake on my end. "Do you accept his apology? "Yes I..accept it?
"There see it wasn't that difficult was it Maild? "No it most..definitely was not. He says trying to hold back shouting again in fear of getting hit with another one of those beams.
"Go inside and wait for me to finish up here. "When I return we shall go over what your punishment is. "Do you understand me? "Yes. "Hopefully you'll learn manners on the way there.
"Always the rebellious one he is. We hear Qalal say as Maild reenters building that were in. She then turns her attention back to Tenn before speaking to her once again.
"As for you, your free to go. "Is this a joke? "Far from it. "You are being allowed to leave on one condition. "What is it? "Your never allowed to be near this planet for the foreseeable future.
"Neither are any of your colleagues. "The only time your allowed here is if we request your presence. "Disobey and there will be consequences.
"We do not kill but there are fates worse than death especially for an irken. "Heed my words for they are a promise. "Can do. "I hear your request and I promise you I'll listen.
"Good to hear. A portal opens right next to Tenn and it is here that Qalal says one final thing to Tenn. "That portal will lead you to the main room of The Massive.
"Once you are there you will be free to live your life the way your programmed. "At least until we're ready. "Ready for what? "No time for questions go before we go and change our minds.
Tenn enters the portal and finally manages to escape Meekrob. Not even a second later she finds herself in the central area of The Massive where The Tallest reside.
The same area where Zim takes it upon himself to call them twenty four seven. Or to shout their name for three hours straight. When the portal closes she sees everybody staring at her.
Nobody said anything for quite some time and it wasn't normal at all. The Tallest were in the room during this and looked as confused as we'd expect them to be.
"My Tallest please forgive my sudden appearance but I've finally managed to escape from the planet Meekrob. "Right remind us again who you are?
Purple says either not caring or not knowing what Tenn was doing here. "That's Invader Tenn. Red chimes in with a reminder to his fellow tallest "Didn't she die?
"We were never able to confirm that. "I don't know she seemed pretty dead to me. "I had expected to see a mutilated corpse to be the result of those malfunctioning bots that were sent to her.
"That reminds me who even did that? "Some prisoner switched up addresses on the packages. "Anyways we're getting off track. "It is good to see your still alive.
"I would say that I am proud of you but I am not seeing how you didn't conquer Meekrob. "Broken bots or not you still should've been able to conquer the planet.
"Apologies My Tallest for I was abducted by the enemy and was tortured for over a year. "I had managed to escape after some outside aid. "That sounds like an excuse.
"We don't want to hear excuses after all this time. "Yeah what he said. "Excuses isn't what we asked for. "As an invader we expect better from you.
"Yes My Tallest I will forever be ashamed for my failure. "I should've pushed through the setback as a real invader does. "Indeed you should've. "What am I to do next My Tallest?
"Not sure. "To be honest we aren't sure you can handle another mission. "Yeah she might mess up and think of another excuse. "Then try and play it off as if it's not her fault.
"Yeah could you imagine if she actually did that again. Red says responding to Purple then proceeding to laugh at what they had said. "Ok we're getting off track again.
"Right my bad. "What exactly were we talking about again? "We were thinking of what she can be given until the Meekrob situation can be solved.
"That I have no idea you'll have to think of that. "Can't you do it for once? "You do a great job at at making decisions like this. "That's because you never want to make these decisions yourself.
"Look how about we do this, you make this decision and I'll make the next one. "You always say that. "This time I promise I won't forget. "Fine but you better remember.
"I will. "Whatever. "Alright then..Invader Tenn. "Yes My Tallest? "We have decided that your to head to Irk and resolve a potential at one of the laboratory's.
"What's the issue? "One of the lab coats decided to let an outsider in to try and experiment on him. "To nobody's shock he was broken out by yet another outsider.
"Your to find out who sent him to them here. "Before you ask yes question the lab coat about what happened. "Do not worry My Tallest it shall be done.
"Good then your dismissed. "Yes My Tallest. Tenn proceeds to salute The Tallest before leaving and heading off to do what she was told to do.
Once Tenn had left she began to go and get a ship and head to Irk. There she would take care of the the issue that involves Aeiob if you didn't know already.
During this she would most definitely learn more about Deiol and what he's plotting. She was thinking about that after she'd been lectured about not conquering Meekrob.
Despite her explaining what had happened to her while she was there, The Tallest didn't care. They didn't want to hear any excuses from the invader.
"Wish they understood what had happened to me. "Sure there excuses but at least they have proof behind it. "They had to of seen how I looked.
"I was still in pain with visible wounds. "Guess they thought I'd be able to handle it. "There right. "I didn't handle that the way that I should've.
Tenn says to herself in a ridiculing manner while continuing to the hangar. There she would a find a ship that would replace her old one seeing how the other one got destroyed.
"I wonder who that figure Maild was talking to was? "Deiol was his name but not sure that gives me much to work with. "Ugh think Tenn this shouldn't be difficult for you to find out.
"If only he wasn't wearing a mask. "I'll need to look more into it. "Finding him will give me what I need. "Only issue is I don't know where to start looking?
"Hm perhaps the answers I need is on Irk but I doubt the scientist there will tell me anything. "He's going to have to. "Something tells me there is more to this than I expect.
"Only way to find out is by going there and finding out. After saying that we see Tenn enter a large room and it's here where shes a ship that was reserved to her by The Tallest.
"Here goes nothing..I guess. Tenn says in disappointed tone before entering the ship. She was still upset at what The Tallest said about her.
She had no choice but to stand there and let them say all of that. Cause let's be honest she shouldn't consider talking back. The last time an irken did that it didn't end well for them.
To my knowledge they were strapped to a ship and sent into something that resembles the sun. Yes you would be right to think he is dead cause that would be a pretty accurate guess.
Tenn on the other hand wasn't concerned about that though it probably crossed her mind when she was being lectured. "Let's get this over with. She says still disappointed at what happened to her earlier.
Here was hoping when she made it to Irk she would do what The Tallest asked of her. Finding out more about Deiol is more of a concern to her currently.
She wanted to know the purpose of him sending Maild to not only find her but torture her to death. Or at least try to torture her to death cause we'll you know.
For Tenn this was more about Meekrob, more about the malfunctioning bots or even about being insulted by The Tallest. It was about the year she was tortured due to one person's orders.
She like many other people are going to want revenge for what had happened to her. Only time will tell if she'll be able to get what she wants.
Once again we see Deiol standing in the corner and staring at a mirror. He was doing this for quite awhile until he was interrupted by his dad entering the room.
"Good to see you again Dad. "How is..everything going? "Horrible. "Seeing as what you made me do. "You'll have to be more specific. "Seeing how everything I do is horrible to you.
"You had me interrogate a child. "That child tried getting in our way. "The child was five. "She was in our way and besides she wasn't hurt. "That doesn't mean we threaten her.
"Whatever you say Dad. "You took your mask off again didn't you? "How'd you know? "Your breathing is heavier and slower. "How many times were you told you keep your mask on?
"The Doctor told you not take it off. "I know it's because I like to be reminded of the day she was..taken from us. "The day my innocence was taken from me by the fire that they caused.
"Look your not allowed to take that mask off because without your body will shut down on itself. "I know Dad. "I don't need you yelling at me about it.
Deiol places his mask back on before looking back at his Dad. "Sorry for letting you see me like this. "Your my kid, it's not going to bother me looking at you.
"The only thing I don't like is how your acting. "This isn't permanent. "Soon I'll be back to how I used to be. "Or at least close to it. "I sure hope so.
"I hate having to do all this. "I do to Dad but soon despite all our setbacks we will prevail. Deiol's Dad says nothing as he turns around to leave the room.
Deiol continues to stare at the doorway before speaking once again. "Ugh I hate having to argue with you. "I wish you'd see things from my perspective.
"All I want is for you to understand what we're doing. Deiol proceeds to swipe everything off his desk in a fit of a rage. "WHAT IS WRONG WITH HIM!
"CAN'T HE FOR ONCE ACCEPT THAT THIS IS WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE! "Dad I never asked for any of this but it's the world we live in. "These are the sacrifices that must be done.
"It's what she wants. "One way or another I'll get you to understand. Deiol after his rant goes back into the corner to stare at the mirror and mope about the wrongs that were caused to him.
We transition to guess what..another dark room. It is here where we see that the room is utterly trashed and broken apart. The door to the room opens and reveals a figure exiting it.
He looks back to see the work that he's done. "That is only the beginning of what I have in store for you. A voice is heard saying as we see something else in the room.
It looked like a body belonging to some random figure. Whoever it belonged to was unknown but what was known is who the voice belonged to.
Upon further observation we see that the figure was none other than Qaif. He stares back at what he's done and smiles at it. "Once this one's brother goes to Larb he will soon be caught in my trap.
"A trap that will bring an end to his treacherous ways. "Soon this one won't be the only corpse that is made in the name of Vort. "Soon Larb you'll be forced to face your past.
Qaif says as he closes the door revealing two dead irken guards by the door. When Larb sees this he expects he will chase after him. Little did Qaif he would exactly what he wanted.
Thank you all for staying til the end as I hope you always do. Creative struggle is real when making these stories and like always it's worth all the issues it brings to my brain.
Once I see the hard work that I give every story fills me with joy seeing it all finished. It means that other people get to see all the ideas that I have for this storyline.
A lot goes into this and I make sure or at least try to make sure that everything is created with care. Despite all that goes through my head trying to tell me to give up.
Soon that will never be an issue with me ever again. I still have A LOT left that needs to be finished before I say I did everything I've wanted to do for this storyline.
While all that is being done I hope and pray that you all stay with through it all. Besides all that thank you all for staying with me, stay safe and God Bless You All..Goodbye.
