Skadoosh!
Hehehe.
Last chapter, but I want to make a sequel story.
Thoughts?
I might make one anyway.
Pssh.
Lol.
Read on you cha-cha dancing mice!
Birds flew across the sky in huge flocks. The fault was getting closer.
Dib knocked hard on his nemesis's door. The door opened to reveal a small gray robot. "HI!" he screeched. "What the-?" Zita started. "Gaz?" Dib prompted. Gaz dropped her bag, walked past Dib and Zita, grabbed Gir by the antenna, and slammed him against the wall. Gaz was much taller now too, so Gir was raised off the floor. "Where is Zim?" she snarled.
"Right here!" Zim stood against the wall, with no disguise on.
"Oh, my G-!" Zita exclaimed. Gaz shushed her.
Dib rushed in. "Zim! You have to help! The world is ending and-"
"No you can't ride in my ship," he snapped, "The Voot won't hold all of you and besides, why would I take you?"
"Wait, ship?" Zita questioned.
"Shh," Gaz shushed.
"C' mon, Zim. I know there is some good in you!"
"Never!" he shouted and turned his back, "Now if you excuse me, I have to get off this stupid rock before I'm swallowed in by it."
Dib lost his patience. He reached down and plucked the alien up by the antenna.
"Listen to me! All those times you could have killed me. Up in space, here in your base, any time! Why leave me to die now?"
Zim glared at him. "I was planning to save you as a gift for The Tallest," he snarled.
"Then take me! Take all of us as 'gifts'!" Dib gasped, "Or I'll take the ship and leave you here!"
"You can't fly my ship," Zim scoffed, "You can't read Irken."
Dib reached into his laptop bag and pulled out a small USB port. "With this, I can translate it. I picked up a few things from Tak's ship."
Zim continued to glare at him It looked like the two were having a mental conversation. And angry one. Then the whole house began to shake. A low computer voice sounded. "Zim, the fault is getting closer by the second. If you don't want to be crushed, I recommend you get into the Voot within 40 seconds. 39, 38, 37…"
"ZIM!" Dib shouted.
"FINE!" Zim yelled back, "Put me down!"
Dib dropped Zim and grabbed Zita's hand. "Computer! 5 to the launching bay!"
Despite the furious shaking, the house obeyed and a piece of the floor rose out of the floor, the ceiling opened and they rose to the attic of the house. A giant Irken insignia could be seen on the wall. "Holy shit!" Zita gasped, "So you weren't crazy! He was an alien!"
"Yeah!" Dib responded, C' mon!"
The five of them, Zim, Gir, Gaz, Dib, and Zita, loaded into the Voot Runner. Surprisingly, they all fit. Gaz sat to the right of Zim who sat in the pilot chair. Dib sat behind him while Zita sat to the left. Gir had to sit in the back with cargo.
"5, 4, 3…" the computer threatened.
"Here we go!" Zim shouted.
The roof of Zim's base opened up and the small UFO rose off the pedestal. Dib looked out the window and saw the huge crack in the earth swallow Zim's base.
"My parents… my baby sister… I'm never going to see them again, am I?" Zita asked softly.
"Dad…" Gaz breathed.
"No, we aren't," Dib sighed, his eyes filling with tears, "So the movie was right."
"Yup," Gaz replied.
From outer space, the Earth looked like a rolling fire ball on one side, a cloud of ash on another, and a giant ocean on the other.
Dib heard a small laugh slip out from Zim. Dib smacked him. "What?" Zim asked, angrily, "I was trying to destroy the planet anyway. You star just saved me the trouble."
"Your unbelievable," Dib grumbled, "Where to?"
"Well, I'm heading for my home planet. Irk."
"No way," Zita breathed, "I'm going to see a real alien planet?" Dib scooted close to her. "Yup. This might seem like a bad time, but," Dib smiled softly, "I told you so." Zita returned the smile. "You're still crazy."
"How long until we get there?" Gaz demanded, "I don't want to put up with these two for very long." "About six months," Zim replied.
Gaz's mouth dropped. "What are we going to do for food? And a bathroom?"
Zim paused. "Never thought of that. Well, I have an air lock in the back and spare snacks. I think we'll be okay."
"You think?"
Zim shrugged.
"I knew I should have stayed on Earth and gotten crushed like everyone else…" Gaz growled.
Zim laughed. "That's what you get for hitching a ride. Thank your stupid brother." Gaz swatted Dib upside the head. "Jerk."
Dib shoved her back. "Bitch."
Zita laughed.
"Ugh," Zim grumbled, "This is going to be one long trip."
