EXILE DIB:CHAPTER 10:VIOLET REUNITED

/

Dib was astonished. He'd never seen so many Irken in one place. The city on Volcania was a shantytown by Irken standards, but was home to 3.6 million Irken, mostly Enforcers and prisoners. The buildings speared the sky, 50-story spindles piercing the sparse clouds.

"I know, it's not much." said Tallest Purple apologetically.

"Are you kidding? This is amazing!" said Dib. As he spoke, a small voice wormed into his mind. I agree, Dib said AVATAR. If you're wondering, I recharged through the wireless Irken power net.

"You should see Irk. Actually, that is where we're going." said Purple.

"Why?"

"Because, that's where the Tallest quarters are. Plus, if I'm to help you, you'll need to get encoded."

"Thank you for the consideration, but why would you help us?" asked AVATAR.

"Because, you helped me, and now I'm returning the favor."

Membrane and Gaz were confused as to the conversation between Dib and Purple, as they were both speaking Irken. They'd come up with their own plan for what to do. "Well son, your sister and I are going to leave for Earth." said Membrane.

"You should stay with us, Dad." said Dib, one antenna raised.

"Because we're humans. We can't go off to an alien planet whenever we want to, we have responsibilities."

Meanwhile, in the brig...

"You WILL let Zim out!" yelled Zim at the guard standing outside his cell. He'd been through a lot these last weeks, and it showed. His skin was pale and his antennae twitched nervously.

"Not happening, defect." said the guard, bored. He'd been assigned to guard the Empire's most dangerous prisoner, and so far it'd been uneventful. The ship began to shake, and then there was an earth-shattering roar as 365,000 metric tonnes of alloy and plastics entered hyperspace. There'd been no warning, but Irken weren't big on OSHA compliance.

"Well, this is goodbye, I guess." said Dib. Membrane and Gaz were standing in front of the Snacky Cab they'd hailed, waving goodbye. "Although our time together was short, I'll always miss you." said AVATAR sarcastically. They quickly climbed into the cab, and it flew away.

"What now?" asked Purple. Dib was surprised. Purple'd always been in control, even when he was severely injured.

"I guess we head to Irk." said Dib.

"Not so fast, Pur." said a voice from behind them. They swiveled around.

"Red!" said Purple. "You came!"

"Of course! I'd never leave my best friend on a rock like this one." said Red. "And as for you, we were never introduced. Who are you?"

"I'm Dib. And I'm AVATAR. The one you wanted to kill, remember?" they both said.

Yeah, it's a short chapter, but I wanted to get it posted. The delays may be larger now, as I have "learning" to do. Also, GIVE ME REVIEWS! AVATARxTak comes next chapter!

SKARRCH OUT! *belated boom*
