Chapter is short. Sorry
(Zim POV)
"Did you hear that, Gir! They're going to reward me for turning in my dirt-monster brother! Oh, I can only imagine the places a convict like him could be hiding!" I can't believe it! They were going to reward me AND they even apologized for cutting me off. This just proves that I must be valuable to them! "They even wanted me to continue conquering Earth afterwards! I knew deep down that this filthy planet meant something to them."
"But, WHAT exactly did your brother do? How did they figure out he was even A-live. What proof did they show?! Makes as much sense as, as me!"
"Oh, silly Gir. They're the Tallest. They know everything"
"If they know everything, did why didn't they know sooner that your brub-ub was -"
"Enough Gir! Now, help Zim pack these last bags into the Voot!" Sometimes that robot could be especially annoying. Although, I do admit he brought up some valid points, ... but I'm certain that my Tallest would not lie to me. Gir helped me put the last of the bags in. Everything was set to start our search. I figured we should try the Munzkek galaxy first. Those planets were full of vegetation, perfect for hiding. I got into the ship and set myself on the passenger side. "Gir, I'm going to require YOU to steer us to our destinations. I would, but I don't want to risk falling asleep at the controls. Space is definitely not a good place to go haywire. And, I would rather use the auto pilot, but a certain SIR unit broke it this morning when they threw their Earth rocks in here, and I don't have time to fix it. Do you think you can handle this?" Probably not.
"No! ... wait, Yes!" Oh boy.
"Alright then. Computer, don't let anyone in while I'm gone!" Especially that horrible Dib. That horrible Dib with his horribly brilliant eyes.
"Sure."
"Gir, start the cruiser. We begin our search, ... NOW!"
(Dib POV)
I hated how crowded this thing was. There was hardly any room to move at all. Did they really need to pack this much stuff? I lay, scrunched up, in the trunk of Zim's cruiser. I WAS planning on stopping Zim from leaving at all, but I figured out that his departure had not a thing to do with any evil planet conquering schemes. It was about a search for his brother. I was originally going to disable the ship from the trunk area. When I figured out what was going on, I just couldn't resist a chance to zoom around in space ... even if I couldn't see any of it at the moment.
After an hour or so, I had wiggled into a semi-comfortable position. It was kinda interesting being back here. I got to hear some interesting stuff, aside from Zim apparently having a criminal brother. I listened to Zim talk to Gir about his excitement for pleasing his leaders and serving his people. He sort of sounded like a young boy trying his best to satisfy his perfectionist parents. It was almost kinda sad. It reminded me of the conversation I witnessed between him and his leaders. They seemed so cruel .. but who cares. Zim was a enemy of Earth. I'd say Zim was just as cruel as his Tallest. Heck, he was going to go turn in his sibling who, with what Gir had said, had no real evidence of being a convict. Still though, something in me felt pity for Zim. It was just a tiny bit of pity though, and something I could easily push aside.
I decided that I could most likely nap for a bit, and began to shut my eyes but a loud scream had my eyelids opened wide.
_"Are they gonna hurt me!? I-I'm scared! What did I do wrong?! ... You promise? ... I won't let anything happen to you either then!_ ..."
"ZIiiim! You's asleep! Wakey wakey!"
"Hmm? Oh, yes. Thank you Gir."
What the heck was that? Did Zim just wake up from a dream? Jeez, what was he dreaming about? All of a sudden, I felt everything shaking around me. That couldn't be a good sign.
"Gir, avoid those asteroids as best as possible. Our first couple of planets we search will be surrounded by asteroid belts, so consider this parctice for when we reach our first destination." Asteroids? Gir? Practice!? Zim, fuck my life.
(Zim POV)
That was definitely one of the more scarier things I've ever done. Allowing Gir to maneuver us through asteroids. It's like he was playing a game! Try to nearly hit every asteroid and give my master spooch-attacks.
Thankfully, we made it out okay, and now Gir had more experience in that particular situation. I looked at the location detector. One day away from the Munzkek galaxy. One and one-fourths days away from any planets. Good. We were making excellent time. (Probably due to the enhancements I made to the Voot's motor.) Zin, my sibling, prepare to be turned in like you've never been turned in before.
But, before I turn you over to the authorities, prepare to be questioned like you've never been questioned before! I had no doubts that HE was the one causing my PAK problems and forcing me into states of sleep. Whatever message he was no doubt trying to send, I would figure it out from him myself. I wonder what he'll look like. Obviously, he's going to look like me, BUT there must be some difference somewhere in our appearance. I also wonder what he'll be like. A small part of me has a strange feeling about going out and capturing him.
"I will be honest, Gir, I kind of feel, ... weird about this. I mean, he's a criminal according to the Tallest, so I will undoubtedly bring him before them. But, I feel like, he's actually a decent person. I don't know why I even have a reason to believe he his. It's probably just the dumb dreams that I've been having. They're messing with me." I was suddenly starting to feel really sick. I rubbed tiny circles over my temples.
"You okay, master?"
"Yeah. I just, I don't know. My head just really hurts." Why was I bothered by this out of no where? An image of Dib flashed through my head for a split second. I didn't have time to analyze why, for everything had started blurring black.
(Computer POV)
"Zim's going to be so mad when he finds out that I let Dib sneak into his ship. ... He offered to paint the walls though, and I've been wanting a new look for a while now."
