Zim stares lovingly at his smeets sleeping next to Tak's side. Layla, Harold and Jim are there as well

"Zim Jr.....Zim Jr.....Jr.....Zim", he repeats

"You're so full of yourself", Tak rolls her eyes

"Zim jr....", Zim smiles.

Tak punches her leg, "you still can't feel your legs?", Zim asked her

"No, the doctor says they go numb for a few hours"

"Alexis looks just like you...."

"Zim Jr looks like I cloned you and made him smaller..."

Harold sighs, "Why'd you name that poor kid after his father?"

"Oh Harold", Layla rolls her eyes and approches the new parents, "They're beautiful, Tak, you did a great job". Tak smiles and kisses Zim Jr's tiny cheek.

There's a knock at the door, Zim looks up and quietly answers it, Zak, Gir, and Skoodge are at the door, "Hey, we just came back",Zak said, obvuously tired,

"how'd it go?", ZIM asked them

"The Resisty isn't giving up, we've done all we can, we just got called in for a few hours, the sargent told me to tell you and Jim to get out there when we leave", Zak replied. Zim nodded.

Gir walks over to the sleeping smeets, "aww....", Gir smiles. Zak takes a look at them, "Twins?", "Yep, they're asleep right now", Zim told them, "Gir, stay quiet, don't wake them", Gir nods.

Zim looks at Skoodge, "what are you doing here?"

"I came to see the smeet, well...I guess smeets, I also wanted to apologize for affending you last week".

Zim waves his hand, "Just drop it"

"Twins huh?", Skoodge smiled

"Yeah, it was no wonder Tak got so big", Zim looks back and smiles, Skoodge aproaches the smeets. Zim Jr twitches and wakes up, he jumps at the new faces around him. He gets up and hides behind his mother's arm.

"It's alright", Tak smiles. Zim jr looks at Gir, Skoodge, Zak and then Zim. He makes a "pick me up", gesture to his dad, while making small squeals.

Zim walks over sits down on the side of the bed and picks up his son. Gir peeks at the smeet. Jr seems scared of him at first, but Gir smiles and pats Jr's head gentally. The smeet then grew on him.

Skoodge watches, "I was wrong, Zim".

Zim smiles at both Jr and Gir, "Just forget it". Zim sets Jr down next to his sleeping sister, Jr yawns and curls up next to her, falling fast alseep.

Later, Zim, Gir, Zak and some other Irken soldiers wait in the open garage landing strip on the side of The Dormitory, the strip is large, wide and full of Irken Battle Cruisers. Zim leans on the railings around the perimeter of the landing strip staring into space.

Zak walks up to him, "Hey"

"These past few months went by fast", Zim said ,"I can't believe, out of nowhere, I'm suddently a dad".

"It's scary", Zak said, "Right now there just smeets, then when they're only a few days, they can run around and get easily stepped on, lost or-", Zim interupts him.

"-I don't want those thoughts in my mind right now"

Zak laughs, "Nothin's gonna happen to them, I'm messing with ya!", Zak shooves Zim's shoulder.

Zim looks and squints into space, "I see them". Zim see's the battle hundreds of miles away.

And Alarm goes off, "Let's go!"

Zim, Zak and Gir get in their Battle Cruisers and fly to the Resisty Battle,

"Good luck you guys", Zak says as he flies off to the right farther up, Zim sways his way to the middle of the battle, Gir randomly shoots Resisty vehicals while laughing hystarically.

Zim hears him from the comunicator in the battle ship radio and shakes his head, smiling. Zim shoots a few lasers at Resisty and Meekrob ships, he looks ahead and sees the Dibship.

"Dib...",

Zim flies toward him and smaches his cruiser into Dib's. Dib from inside looks up and starts to shoot Zim, who shoots Dak back with more powerful weapons. ZIM slams his battle cruiser into the Dibship, and shoots the engine, making it shut down,

Dib looks at his controls, "What!", He hysterically hits buttons but gets no results.

Zim grins evilly, then menically laugh as he shoots at Dib again making the ship explode. Zim's vicotry is short, he then realizes his ship was too close to the explosion, the window of Zim's cruiser breaks in, letting out all the oxygen quickly before Zim could take a last breath.

Zim looks around as the rest of his ship begins to break apart as well, he finds that his vision is fading, not breathing, he feels an over whelming and comforting sleep coming on, his body twitches. Then darkness.

Zim wakes up in Gir's battle cruiser hours later in a daze, Gir had seen Zim defeat Dib and saved him before he was gone for good. "Gir...?", he said, weakly.

Gir looks behind him and smiles, Zim smiles back, he gets up and feels his back for his pack, still there, he was fine he was alive. Even though he knew he was going to die if Gir didn't come along, besides the huge gash in his arm, which was bandaged, he was fine. Zim looks out noticeing Zak and the others kicked some ass on the feild. he looks at Gir. "You, my friend, have an act at being a the right place at the right time".

Zim smiles, looking around seeing peices of cruisers from the Resisty ships, The Irken Empire had won the war.

Gir flies his cruiser catching up with the others. When Zim and Gir get on the landing strip, Zak and Jim meet with them.

"Zim!, you're alright...when we got you I thought you were done for". Zak laughed, Zim smiles barely walking.

Jim puts his hand on Zim shoulder, "Yep, I thought my baby brother was dead, it woulda made Dad so happy". Zim looks ahead, and sees a smeet coming his way, "Jr...?", Zim walks up to the smeet finding it is his son, "Hi Dad!"

"What're you doing here? doesn't Mom wonder where you are?", ZIM asked him,

"....maybe", Jr says trying to look cute

"Don't tell me you snuck off", Jr gives a cheesy smile.

ZIM picks him up and takes him to the room, "Am I in trouble...?" Jr asks him. Zim looks at Jr and smiles.

"...Yeah, you are"

"I just wanted to see you Daddy! I wanted to know what it's like being a soldier! I wanna be an invader or somethin'!"

"Jr I'm glad you want to be an invader, but you're only a day old, you have 10 years to figure out what you want to do"

Zim opens to door to his and Tak's dormitory room, finding Tak on the floor looking under the covers, "I'm a horrible mother! where is he!"

"If you're looking for our little runaway, he's right here, he snuck off to see me"

Tak looks up and holds her hand to her heart, "Oh thank God..."

She looks at Jr, "don't do that again!". Zim lets Jr down on the bed, he sits on the side of the bed.

"Where's Alexis...?", Zim asked her, Alexis sits next to her dad, "I'm right here Daddy!"

Zim picks her up, "Hey baby girl", he tickles her, "Guess what Daddy did today, he stared at death in the face and spit on him", Zim tells her, Alexis laughs. Tak smiles and points at Jr,

"You're in trouble Mister...".

Zim tells Tak about defeating Dib, "The Meekrob War is over!-"

"-LET US CELEBRATE!", Tallest Red yells to an entire room of soldiers. Later that night Zim and Tak left Harold and Layla to go to a celebration outside Meekrob's Irken Military Land Base.

Fireworks flare high into the air, bursting with flashes of bright colors letting out loud booming pops.

Music swells loudly. Right up Gir's ally, he break-dances in the middle of a huge crowd cheering him on. Zim dances along side with Tak, swirrling her around. Laughing she holds him tightly and kisses him, at that moment, all the tension faded away, they were both in relief.

Fireworks bursted all around.

That next day, Zak visited a memorial stone with an Irken Flag on it, representing Kal.

Zak stared, Zim walks up to him.

"I hate to leave him....", Zak said, "I mean, where do I start from here...?" Zak asks.

Zim Jr walks up to Zim, "Dad, Mom said, 'come on, or we're leavin' without ya'"

"Okay, Zim tell her I'll be there in a minute".

He turns to his broken friend, "Zak, it can happen again you know, a new family, you don't have to leave them behind, but you can't stay alone forever....or you can come with us".

Zak shakes his head, "Thank you, but I can't go with you, you guys have done so much for me already, I'll just start a different life, maybe go back into training, I'll keep myself busy, I'll try not to dwell to much in the past".

Zim smiles and pats Zak's shoulder, "Good luck to you in the future, my friend"

"And to you my friend", Zak shakes Zim's hand and salutes.

Zim turns and walks to his new mission, his new family, his new life.
