Well, when I take into account the 'Go for IZ' and 'do whatever you want' reviews I got I felt to go out for that. If it sucks real bad, I'll redo it. For now, it's the IZ crossover. Oh and, Zim won't be the main villian XD not for very long anyways. He's too incompitent to make into a real villian in that kind of sense. I got bigger plans for him anyways.

Not long after Danny made the call, the Titans touched down right outside the area. Danny saw this and floated over as they climbed out of the jet.
Beast Boy was the first to land on the Earth. "Oooooh man!" he groaned, stretching his arms above his head as Cyborg jumped to the ground behind him. "Eight hours in the jet," he sighed. "Eight hours! That's like… I don't know," he admitted. "But it's like something and that something is bad."
"Your ability to make metaphors amazes me," Raven said sullenly as she floated to the ground.
Beast Boy gave Raven an annoyed look while Robin, Danny and Cyborg held in laughter. Starfire floated over to try and cheer the green Titan up. "Well, the making of metaphors is not that important, is it?" she asked.
Beast Boy's ears dipped. "I was trying to be witty," he admitted slowly.
"It's all right BB," Cyborg said as he slapped Beast Boy on the shoulder. "Your wits are about as sharp as they always are."
"Thank you!" Beast Boy replied happily. He paused and blinked as he mulled over Cyborg's words. "I think…" he added.
Danny laughed as he floated to the ground and lit lightly behind Raven. "Nice to see you guys again," he said earnestly.
Robin walked over and held out his hand, which Danny took. "Nice to be working with you again as well, Phantom," he said amiably. He turned and nodded at the odd obstruction in the middle of the field. "Well?"
"I told you that I saw," Danny assured him. "There's not much room inside between the ship and the force field though.
"Is it live?" Robin asked.
Danny blinked and cocked his head. "Excuse me?" he asked.
"When you touch the force field, does it hurt?" Robin explained.
"Oh!" Danny said knowingly. "That makes sense," he laughed and crossed his legs and grabbed his ankles in an odd looking position as he floated in front of Robin. He then shook his head. "No, I put my hands flat against it and felt nothing. There's a lot of energy making up the force field though. But it doesn't hurt."
Robin stroked his chin and frowned. "This is an enigma," he said slowly. "Someone obviously set up this force field, but there is nothing actually… threatening about it."
"Maybe we should take a look ourselves?" Raven offered. "See what we're up against before we jump to any conclusions."
"That's a good idea," Robin agreed. "All right, Raven I want you to…" his voice trailed off as the force field slowly dissipated. In the middle, a bubble shaped space ship could be seen through the thinning haze. "Never mind then," he finished.
Everything was stock still as everyone looked at the small ship. It was a purple hue and had a strange symbol on the side. Starfire gently landed on the ground next to Robin, frowning. "It looks familiar…" she admitted. "But I am afraid I cannot place it. I am sorry."
"No, no," Robin said softly. "It's all right. Let's just see what's inside first. Phantom, I want you on standby. If anything goes wrong, shield whatever is attacked. Understand?"
Danny nodded and flew up into the air to get a better aerial view. Raven nodded to Robin in a silent decision and followed Danny.
"Follow me," Robin said quietly and the remaining Titans followed him to where the space ship was. They inched closer and closer and peered inside to see what the alien looked like.
Inside, a small, green dog with black markings was curled up on the seat, fast asleep. Robin frowned and peered closer to see that the 'green dog' was something else dressed up in a very bad costume. He could see the zipper.
"What is it?" Raven asked over the communicator.
"I… honestly have no idea," Robin replied. "I can't tell, it seems to be wearing some kind of… disguise."
"A really bad one," Beast Boy added.
"I couldn't see very well," Danny said over Raven's communicator. "I just saw a green dog in a spaceship."
Robin chuckled. "Well… it's safe to say that it's probably not from Earth. Although, I'm not sure what to try next," he said with a frown.
Just then, the 'dog's' eyes opened and he sat up, looking around. Starfire, Beast Boy, Robin and Cyborg all jumped back and leveled their weapons, ready to fire if need be. The space ship's clear, circular shield opened up and the 'dog' jumped out. It slipped while jumping out and half slid, half fell onto the ground where it lay still.
Danny and Raven floated down, unsure of what to do. Robin motioned to them and they came all the way over to look at the dead looking creature.
"Is it… all right?" Starfire asked hesitantly.
The 'dog' eyes snapped open and it sat up, grinning stupidly. "Hiiiii!" it said cheerfully, waving ecstatically while giggling madly. "I like tacos!"
The Titans were silent for a few seconds before Beast Boy knelt down. "That's uhhh… cool," he replied, having no earthly clue on how to deal with the strange creature. "What's your name?"
The creature blinked once before laughing again and standing up. It came to about 3 feet in height and stood on two legs. Furthering the idea that it was indeed, not a dog. "I like tacos!" it said again and waved both arms sporadically.
"What is it?" Cyborg asked slowly.
"I have no idea," Robin admitted. "Whatever it is… it doesn't seem very smart."
"GIR!" a voice yelled out of nowhere.
All the Titans watched as the disguise came off to reveal a silver robot with cyan markings and a blank expression in its bulbous eyes. A large screen came out of its head and opened up to reveal the image of a green alien with large red eyes and long antennae sticking out of its head. Robin looked around at his team mates who all shrugged or shook their heads.
"Awww, hey master! You look like a silleh monkey!" Gir said loudly then giggled.
The alien's antennae twitched in apparent irritation at his inept robot. "GIR!" he yelled again. "WHERE ARE YOU?"
Gir looked around and then shrugged. "I don't know," he admitted. "But I had a nap. It was nice."
"You took MY VOOT!" the alien yelled. "I NEED MY SHIP!"
"Awww, don't be upset master. The flying zoomy thing is fine. And I made muffins!" Gir yelled, producing a muffin from his head and munching on it happily.
The alien rubbed his temples with hands that on closer inspection only had three fingers. "Gir…" he said slowly. "Why did you take my Voot cruiser to begin with?" he asked in an eerily calm voice.
Gir stopped chewing on the muffin for a moment before looking up and shrugged. "I like the muffin!" he said, holding out his half chewed muffin at the projection of the alien.
The alien's antennae twitched once. "You know what? Fine! Whatever Gir! Just STAY THERE while I come to get you and the Voot, understand?"
"What you say?" Gir asked as he finished off the muffin.
"STAY THERE GIR!" the alien yelled. "Stay there like the obedient robot slave you are."
"Awww, but what if I wanna go zoomy again?" Gir asked, pouting like a five year old.
The alien sighed, obviously at his wits end with Gir. "If you stay there Gir, I'll bring you tacos."
"YAY! TACOS!" Gir cheered and nodded. "I stay! I stay for the taco!"
"Of course you do," the alien muttered. "Now, OBEY ME and don't move. I'll be there when I can."
"Okie dokie!" Gir cheered and waved at the alien's disappearing form. When the screen went blank the robot sat down and stared blankly at the sky.
"So………" Cyborg said slowly. "You're…Gir?"
Gir nodded. "Yeup!"
"Who was that?" Robin asked, wondering if Gir was even capable of stringing together a coherent thought.
"That was my master," Gir said in a knowing voice. "He's an Irken trying to take over the planet. But I like the planet. It has tacos and muffins and piggies. I like the piggies."
"He's trying to… what?" Danny asked.
"Dance!" Gir said, waving his arms around. He then stood up and began to dance to some unbearable song that only he knew about.
"Oooookay…" Cyborg said slowly. "Do we believe the insane robot?"
"Irken…" Starfire said slowly.
"You've heard of them?" Robin asked.
"I have heard… rumors," she admitted. "Of an insectoid race bent on galactic conquest. Apparently they send out scouts to planets they intend to conquer and then destroy all its living inhabitants. Of course, we heard this from a star traveler so it was only hearsay."
Robin's expression darkened. "Hearsay or not, we're going to treat this as a possible threat. Everyone, evacuate the personnel and get ready for the arrival of this 'Irken'. Titans GO!"
Gir watched the different humans fly off and clapped his hands at the antics. "Oooooo, like on TV."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Zim flew into the clearing where he had tracked Gir and his Voot. It was an abandoned area and he was able to breathe a sigh of relief as he landed his backup Voot. "Good, the pathetic human race did not notice anything. My secret is safe…" Zim grinned right before he burst into maniacal laughter.
"Well then, that answers our question about whether or not he's evil," Cyborg muttered into his communicator.
"All right, on my signal…" Robin said softly. "Ready and…"
Zim's antennae perked as his Pak picked up several signals around him. He knew there were transmissions being issued, but he couldn't tell from where, or who. He sunk down low, ready to use any means to defend himself.
"MASTER!" Gir yelled happily and flew into Zim's side, knocking the hapless alien over. Zim began to curse as the hyper robot hugged his master in a painful looking embrace. "You bring the taco?"
Zim gasped for breath and glared at his robot. "GIR! You daaaare knock over your master!"
"Taco?" Gir asked.
"Quiet Gir, I think we're being monitored," Zim hissed. "The taco will come later, just… shut up."
Robin nodded and all the Titans came out from behind various shrubs and in Danny and Raven's case, thin air, in a circular formation around Zim. "That's the least of your worries," Robin told him, grinning.

Well, if you hate it, all I can say is, don't read it and pretend Faith and Trust has to sequel. For the rest of you, I have this to offer. I am going to be using some plot points and ideas that were brought up in the 'cancelled' episodes of Invader Zim. I plan to outline them VERY clearly and explain everything as best I can. However, if you would like to research these things on your own, or find out for yourself where they came from, I suggest going to thescarymonkeyshow dot com and looking up 'Cancelled Episodes' there you will find the scripts for the episodes I plan to use. Namely: I plan to take from 'The Trial' and 'Ten Minutes to Doom' so when I say stuff, don't say 'OMG that never happened!' because it probably did.
If I DO use my own ideas, it'll be really obvious. AND if you just don't care, pretend Zim, Gir, Minimoose, Dib (probably Gaz, The Tallest, Skooge and Tak as well) are all OC's and that this is whatever. Because trust me, I won't leave anything unexeplained XD it's the only way to handle this.
Also, on the Danny Phantom bit. I KNOW lots of things have happened since Faith and Trust came out. Truthfully, Danny's personality has also changed quite a bit. However, because Faith and Trust was an AU and he was his 'shy not really liking the whole power thing' self from season 1 in it, he hasn't had the luxury of getting all his tasty development from seasons 2 and 3. SO here's what I'm gonna do, I'm going to try and develop his personality in a suitable way while keeping it from looking like there was this drastic change. In order to do so, a good portion of this fic will take place at school, at home, with Danny interacting with his friends, parents, teachers, the Titans (and Zim to a degree)
What this means is that in order to get in everything I want, this is going to end up being one long ass fic. So I don't want any reviews saying there's too much focus on Zim, or on the Titans or not enough on them or too much on Danny or what have you. I swear it will even out but you have to give it time for each arc to get done. Yes, this first arc is Zim centric to get the... plot moving. I.E. I need to set up a few things so that before Danny's arc it doesn't look like I abandoned the actual plot of the fic. Which should be rolling around in 2 or so chapters.
Whew, that's a lot of author's notes! Hope you read all them as they're all very important. Thanks for beleiving in me and I can't wait to see how this will turn out. Hugs and kisses to all who reviewed!
