Invader Zim- The End?
Chapter 14
Dib pushed on the door to his house as hard as he found it possible. Kim was next to him, pushing with all of her might as well. Neither of them, even with their combined strength could get the door to close. It was a hopeless effort and they were cornered. There was no escape from the mob that was waiting for them outside of the house. The dripping mouth of people wishing for answers was buried in their heads. Dib turned around and tired to push with his back because he knew that he would be able to push more if he did that but the pain in his spine came back to him. He turned around again and continued to push with his hands letting his feet go out far behind him for support. Kim was pushing closer to where the door opened up. Greedy, grubby hands pushed through the opening. They belonged to the bodies that longed to get inside of the house. Kim knew that she could not let them inside though and she pushed hard. At one point she had grabbed a lamp and moved away from the door to whack at the hands. One had been able to get in when she had not been holding the door and Dib had been forced to hold the door for five minutes wile she ran around the perimeter and attempted to paralyze the beast. Kim had then tossed it back out and done back to her duty of holding the door shut. Since they had arrived the door had not been closed. The two humans had tried as best as they could to close it and their muscles had been pulled and strained from being used so much. No matter how hard the two of them tried they could not beat away at the question crazed monsters that attempted to get in. They were not able to close the door and they were not able to get away from the constant questions that had made it through the door's open side.
"Aliens!"
"Let me see them!"
"Let the aliens bless my toes!"
We want to see the aliens!"
"What race are they?"
"Give us a quote for the paper!"
"Is the green headed boy one of them?"
"Was Professor Membrane aware of all of this?"
"What planet are you from?"
"Are you the daughter of the weenie king?"
"Why are they so tall?"
Dib turned his head and looked into the room. Gaz sat on the couch. She was holding her Game Slave and was completely wrapped in a game of Vampire Piggy Hunter and so paid no attention to the world around her. Every once and a while though she would pause her game and looked up at the Irkens that sat in the room. Tak had taken a spot on the back of the couch. He left leg was loosely hanging off the side and her elbows were seated on the back cushions. Her other leg was just barely touching the floor as she leaned over the side to watch the game as well as do the required repairs on Zim's pack. Zim and Tallest Red were seated on the cough, Zim next to Gaz. They each had, in their hands a game controller and they were wrapped up in player a two player game of 'destroy all humans 2'. Tallest Purple would come in and out of the room with snacks from the kitchen. He would sit down and eat and then, when he was finished, he would get up and go back into the kitchen. Each time he came back he was eating donuts or a chocolate bar. It seemed like all the Earth food that was bad for humans was what Irkens ate. (Has anyone else noticed this?) Dib frowned. "Can't any of you help us?"
Kim nodded. "They're kind of hard to hold back. It would be a lot easier if we closed the door."
Gaz paused her game. "Then close it."
"We can't!"
Tak rolled her eyes. She stepped down from where she was and crossed the living room to the doorway. She pulled Dib away and then she pulled Kim away. The door slowly opened and she looked into the eyes of all those humans that were stating the obvious and asking so many questions. They all froze at her angered face but they did not move from the doorway.
"To what you have already said…" she took a breath. "Duh. You can see us later. No way. Again, later. Irken. Earth is now the most important planet in the universe. Yes. No. Irk. No, I used him. They are the mighty Tallest and that's all you need to know."
Tak slammed the door closed. She allowed portions of her spider legs to come out of her pack and face at the door. Flashes of blue light covered the doorframe and when she turned around the door was securely molded shut so that no one would be able to get in. She turned to Dib. "Happy?"
"Uh…" He scratched the back of his head. "Ya. Thanks."
Tak crossed the room and took her spot once more.
Kim leaned in to Dib ear. "I don't see why she couldn't have done that earlier."
Dib crossed the room next to Kim and looked at the aliens that sat in his living room. Tak seemed to be the more organized one of them. Tallest Purple loved his food. Tallest Red loved his video games. Zim loved to please the Irken Empire. They were a very strange bunch and he found that Gaz only added to the mixture. He looked to the television screen. In the short time that they had been playing, Tallest Red and Zim had been able to get past the first few stages of the game and where already talking about the Furon god, Arkvoodle. He frowned and crossed in front of the screen so that they were not able to see.
"Hey." Red looked at the human teenager. "We were playing that."
"Can we please get serious here?"
Red set his controller down and leaned back on the sofa with one hand going over the back. "My, my. Aren't we in a rush to save a puny little planet. Fine. Hey, Pur, get in here. It's time to get serious." Purple peeped his head in the doorway and looked at them, his mouth filled with donuts. He walked into the room and sat down in a chair with yet another bag of donuts. "Ok, human. What would you like to know?"
"I want to know more about those twins. Gagnor and Gagnex. There couldn't have only been one encounter with them. Plus, if it was Zim that crushed them why would they be after the two of you? I know that there was more than one sight and more than one battle."
"Right you are Dim."
"It's Dib."
"Whatever. Anyway, you are right about there being more than one battle with the twins. Unfortunately for us we came into contact with them on more than one account."
"Ya," said Purple from his chair. He swallowed what food was left in his mouth. "We had a lot more than just one battle with them. That's for sure. But why are we telling you this?"
"Because I'm the only on keeping you from being outside with all the saucer morons and the camera crews." Dib smirked.
Red and Purple had their eyes meet with a little bit of trepidation at the fact that they could be outside with all those insane humans. "You have a good point there," said Red as he turned back to Dib. "So, I guess I should tell you of the times."
"No."
"No?"
"Tell me about the last time that you saw them. By what I've heard everyone was surprised to see that they were still alive. I want to know what you did that was meant to kill them."
"Um… Ok. We blew them up."
"How?"
"Well…" Red thought back to the last time that he had seen the twins other than recently. "It went sort of like this…"
Red glided across the floor and leaned on the railing in front of him. Purple had caught a disease on the last planet that they had been on and he was stuck in the infirmary until the Irken doctors figured out what was wrong with him.
In the meantime Red was bored. They were crossing past the Oalvix star system and he had nothing to do with Purple being sick. Originally they had planned to land on a near by planet and have a little fun by raining some doom down on the civilians' filthy doomed heads. Then they had planned to check up on some of the battles in action on Hobo 13.
Space was completely quiet. He sighed and twiddled his fingers in boredom. He couldn't really think of much that he wanted to do. He'd beaten all of the video games that he currently owned and there weren't any new ones that he wanted to get. He and Purple had already cleaned the ship of all snacks so there wasn't much left to eat. There were no planets that were too nice so he didn't really feel like landing at all either. Red was completely bored and there was nothing to lift his boredom.
He sighed and flicked at a few of the computer terminals as he crossed the deck.
One of the terminals accidentally came to life and projected an image on it. Red sighed and walked over to the switch, ready to turn it off again. Then he stopped as a blur whipped across the screen right before his eyes. At first he had suspected it to be a trick of the mind.
Then it happened again.
Tallest Red watched as the blur cleared a path across the deck and evaded each Irken that walked past. It neared closer to the camera that recorded what was happening. The last image that came onto the screen was that of a red object, an artificial eye, glaring into the lens and then overwhelming it with a burst of who knows what. The screen when white with static.
Red frowned. He flicked the next switch. The same thing happened.
Then it happened to a third.
And than a forth.
It was a continuous pattern.
He turned to one of the Irken pilots. "You, what's going on with the cameras? Are we having a memory wipe?"
"Not that I know of, sir." The pilot logged into the terminal and accessed the program that Red was currently looking through. He scanned down the files and found that the cameras were not logging off line. They were being destroyed from an outside source. 'We have an intruder on the ship, sir."
"Sound the alarm!"
---
Purple sat up straight when he heard the echoing alarm sound ringing through the desks. The nurses and doctors that were close to him looked up at the screen that flickered to life. Red's face appeared and looked down at him. "Good, Pur, you're awake. We have an intruder on the ship. Do you have the strength that you need? We may have to fight. I think that it's Gagnex and Gagnor."
"Again?" Purple sighed and rubbed his temple with his fore finger. "When will they give up?"
"Apparently not any time soon. Can you fight?"
"I'm feeling better. Yes."
"Good. Meet me on deck with your battle suit."
"Kay."
---
Gagnor looked up at the alarm. Had he tripped it? Whatever he had done wrong didn't matter to him now. It was all a mess again. Just like their last plan and the one before that. The Bludgeon sighed and opened his com-link with his brother. "What did I do wrong this time?"
Gagnex's voice came onto the COM with him. "I don't know. I didn't do anything, I know that. I'm not detecting any residual laser on you so you didn't trip the alarm with your footwork. I don't understand what could have caused it. I'll log into the computer system and see what happened."
"Kay. I'm going ahead with the plan."
"Right."
Gagnor moved forward in his camouflage suit. The glove started to slip and so he pulled it back up. Gagnor had found that it was much harder keeping his clothes on now that he had converted portions of his body into metal. His right arm, for example, was a complete automaton. It had a mind of its own but he was able to control it with the chip that Gagnex had implanted in his brain. He pulled the sleeve on properly and pressed forth.
Gagnex contacted him again after about ten minutes of evading Irken soldiers.
"I found out what happened."
"What?"
"One of the terminals was switched on."
"I thought that you said that all the cameras would be out for maintenance."
"I opened up the video feed for the main deck… Red got bored and switched it on by mistake."
"Oh! That's just great!"
"We should get out of here now."
"No. I came here to kill them and I'm going to do it!"
"But!"
"I said that I'm going to kill those freaking shisno and I'm going to kill them!"
Gagnex sighed. "Fine. Go ahead… But I'm not coming in get your dead body. They can burn it or something."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!" Dib shook his hands in the air as he looked at the Tallest. Red raised a brow at the sudden interruption to the story that he and Purple had been telling. Purple took it as the time that he needed to stuff another donut into his gapping mouth and pass one to his co-Tallest. "How can you tell the story about what they said if you weren't there?"
Red shrugged. "Uh huh…
"Can we continue now?"
Dib nodded.
Purple met Red on the bridge of the ship. Both had dressed into the battle suits that they only wore when they truly needed to. The suits covered their thin bodied with thick armor and a suction helmet that securely fastened to their faces to reduce the pressure from a blow. There were strong jets fixed firmly to the boots of the attire and heavy guns that stood on their left arms. Their packs were covered fully to avoid damage and they each bore the symbol for Irken conquest on the chest plates.
"Ready?"
"Ready!"
There was a pounding on the door.
The Tallest, as well as everyone on deck, readied themselves for battle.
"Rd! Purple! I know that you're in there! I'm going to get you shisnos!"
"Oh… You said a bad word." Purple laughed.
"You dare laugh at me you filthy Irkens."
"I think that you have it backwards." Red laughed.
Gagnor growled from deep in his throat and tore at the door to the main deck. It was ripped off of its hinges in his strong arms and he stood in the hallway with it above his head. His robotic eye glared at them, analyzing each part of the deck and checking for traps. The Bludgeon threw the door to the side and it tore through the side of the hull. He smiled as he stepped into the deck.
Red and Purple raised their weapons and poised their fingers atop the firing buttons.
Gagnor spread his arms wide in mocking. "What? No hello for an old friend?"
"Not when our lives would be sacrificed in the process."
"Aw. You misjudge me guys." Gagnor smiled. "It won't be anything like a sacrifice. More like a slaughter. So? Can Red and Pur come out to play?" Gagnor laughed deeply in his throat.
There was a creaking sound behind him.
Gagnor turned back. (He's not too bright.)
Red and Purple lifted themselves up on top of the spider legs that ejected from their packs and rushed forwards at the Bludgeon. They crashed their feet into him at the same time and he was sent back into the hallway. Purple followed him and then noticed the slight tear in the hull. The air was escaping through it. He smile and scraped his spider leg across the line that had already been created.
The hill tore through completely and Gagnor was sucked out.
He crashed onto something that wasn't there. He sat up and pounded on it. "Let me in!"
A ship, which had not been there before, appeared and opened a hatch. Gagnex stood up and helped his brother back into the ship. Purple smiled out through the hole. Red called back into the room. "Annihilate that ship!" A jet of blue light erupted from the Massive ship and struck the Bludgeons' ship. They tumbled out of orbit for a moment and then the craft exploded.
Purple looked and smiled as he spotted Gagnor's artificial eye floating in the dense vacuum of space.
"Vacuum?"
"What's that Pur?"
"Space is a vacuum right?"
"Yeah. So?"
"Shouldn't I be sucked out?"
Red held onto his hands as the vacuum of space tried to collect him so suddenly. He used his spider legs to support himself against the wall. He pulled as hard as he could, trying to make sure that his friend wasn't claimed by space. He didn't much feel like going out to get him. Red glared at Purple. "You had to jinx it!"
"Eventually we had to block the hole off with a table that was taken from the café."
Dib scratched his head. "But then couldn't the table have just been compressed so much that it fit through the hole and was sucked up?"
Red shrugged.
