Yes Chapter Tres I bring the POV of Tak and Zim back. Which means GIR!! But no this chapter has
more angst of the 70 years of Lon's life. And Fire. Lon's POV
DOTS: Testing, and a Tragedy
I looked back at Blackheart. "He just won't get it will he?" I said. He would probably never get that a
human and Irken can't get together. But that was awesome a couple seconds ago, where My armor set
off lightning. That would help when the engine was finished. I decided to turn around to help him.
"You have a 'power' to control" A lady said behind me said. "Eh?" "I want to get off this planet, but we
can't survive in the real world. I don't want you guys to end like that." She said. It was random. "Who
are you?" I asked. "You can just call me Allen" I smiled. She walked off. I nodded knowing she was
right. "Gaz what are you going to do?" I asked. "Sit and watch" I rolled my eyes. Honestly.
I decided to test. "Gaz you are the most selfish Bitch ever" I cringed at the electricity. "Right back at
you." She said not caring. What an uncaring F--ing bitch. My armor caught fire. "Did you do that or
did you flick me off in your mind" Gaz asked. "Er... Flicked you off." She glared. "You are too happy
all the time, if you have to use that armor you have to be like me and Sumera" She said shaking her
head. Sumera was the scariest and most constantly pissed off Irken ever. "So I have to be insane"
Gaz shook her head. "Why did you seem to cast off lightning and blue fire?" She asked. "Blackheart
said I wasn't worth the Hell." I said. Gaz almost smirked. "Why are you so bent on killing spirits?" She
asked. "They killed my sister." I got angrier. "I think she deserved it." My armor caught blue fire. "Yes
so if someone toys with your emotions your armor catches fire in a blue tint." She said. That made
sense. If I'm humiliated it would send off lightning. "This is cool Aghh!" I screamed. It was burning
me. "Gaz Water!" I cried. "It's okay Lon! He didn't mean what he said, I didn't either!" She shouted
in a monotone. "Ow! Gaz I'M really on fire!" I cried. "Think of a happy time." She said. Well Geez!
I'm on fire!
Devastis
"Ow!" I cried. Idiot Irkens. "Do you like your snacks now?" They asked. "Not really. Let me go!"
I cried. They dumped me farther in. "Hey let's turn her into a snack!" They said. They all agreed.
"How about you let her go. And we beat you to a pulp." A female voice said. I felt strong hands lift me
up out. "Hey Lon, we're still here for you." A voice said. He took the snack mix off my face. I saw
Gretel getting rid of the guys. "The Tallest, your father will love to hear about this!" Gretel and
Flourg said laughing. I heard everyone scream and scramble. "It's not that new make-up, but you look
great in it." Them said. I blushed. We leaned in and kissed
End Flashback
My armor stopped being on fire. "What did you think of?" I smiled. "Devastis" She stopped paying
attention. 70 years ago I kissed him. 70 years later and I'm his bride. I knew this though. Blue fire is
dangerous. "Well I have to develop another part to help this-" Started. My armor started to rattle. It
all fell apart and off. "Irk!" I cried. I looked at myself and sighed. In armor we wear a bandaged under
wrap so We are protected. Despite catching fire it wasn't hurt. "Wow." Blackheart said on the brink of
laughing. "Hey!" I yelled. I lowered my antennae I was not threatening without my armor. "Hey what?
You can't burn me so I can say what I want!" I glared. "I don't need armor to hurt you." I growled. He
laughed. "What can you do?"
5 minutes later
I stared at him on the top branch of the tree. "Okay so how was I supposed to know?" He asked. I
glared. "How am I going to work on the engine?" I laughed. "Well what goes up must come down"
He looked mortified. "If I'm dead or broken I can't make the engine!" He plead. "Well I have to build
new armor. So take your time!" I said walking off. Crack I laughed. I heard screaming and a branch
falling. "That was pretty funny." Gaz said. "Why don't you respect him?" I asked. "Well after that it's
even harder." I laughed. "I'm alive!" Blackheart said crawling up. "You are cruel!" He yelled. I rolled
my eyes. "You're lucky I didn't dump you in the river!" I hissed. He looked mortified again. Despite
being older than me it was older who was more intimidating if you aren't afraid of the color black.
"Now I have some more armor to build out of crystals" I said walking off.
"Okay...Merna"
On the Massive. Tak and Zim
I walked around. Being over 200 years old and being a Tallest (With Zim) was hard. They hadn't had
female Tallests since Miyuki. I sat in the quarters for a while. Zim walked in. "Hello Zim" I said. He
smiled. "I'm worried, I haven't heard from Lon in a while!." I told him. He nodded. "It seems as if she
just disappeared." He said. "Do you think the spirits got her?" I asked. He shook his head. "They
wouldn't dare attack Merna. They seem to have a weird weakness to fire." I laughed. "She's always
been the one to catch fire" He nodded. "But let's try contacting her." I said. We got up and walked to
the control room. They entered in her ships PIN. We saw a grassy area. "Er.. Is that Earth?" I asked.
One of the guys in bandannas shook his head. "That's Kri, the planet with the huge magnetic field"
I stared. Zim nodded. Lon came in to view. "Hey. Hey! That's The massive!" She said looking in to the
viewer. "Hi Lon." I said. All she had on were seared bandages. "Where's your armor?" Zim asked. Lon
stared. "I was testing it out how to use it at will so we could build a fire engine and escape but..." She
said laughing. Zim sunk his head in to his hands. "I caught fire and it fell apart." I looked at her. She
did have seared parts on her. "Virkens are scary." She said. "Excuse me?" I said laughing. Everyone
knew I was a Virken. "They all have squeaking voices" I rolled my eyes. "Do you forget I'm a Virken?"
She turned pale. "Er... Not you! You are cool!" She said nervously. A black-eyed Irken came into view.
"Who's this?" We asked. "This is Blackheart" Zim looked at him. "His eyes are black" "Is he your
boyfriend?" I asked. "No!" She yelled. "No. I'm for Gaz" Zim burst out laughing. I stared confused.
"Are you okay?" I asked. "He just said he prefers GAZ over an Irken!" I stared confused. "Wait Dib's
Gothic sister?" I asked. They nodded. "and besides Lon's going to get betrothed." I heard Zim make
what sounded like he swallowed his tongue. "Aren't you a little young?" I asked. Zim gagged on his
tongue. "No." She claimed. "Yes... We didn't get married until we were 150!" I claimed. "You two
were going to get betrothed when you were 50" Drat. How did she know? "Because Sumera told her
once." Blackheart said. "Eh?" We said looking up. "Nothing." We nodded slowly. "Er... Did you know
the Resisty can kill spirits?" Lon said. "No. We try to kill the Resisty." Zim said. "This Virken lady,
Maya told me!" She claimed. Zim managed to get his tongue out of his throat. I knew what he was
going to bring up. He had tried so hard to keep Lon in a bubble since Sumera died. "So who are you
getting betrothed to?" He asked. "Them." Lon said. "The bounty hunter guy?" I asked. "Hey! How do
you know him?" Zim asked getting jealous. "If you hadn't been busy locking Lon in a bubble instead
of watching her then you would know!" I said. "How do you now him?!" "I JUST TOLD YOU!" I
yelled. Man it was frustrating when he tunes me out. I heard some snickers. "Man Zim you have a
problem listening." I told him. "Master! Can I talk to Lon?" GIR asked running in. Zim cringed. The
only thing that embarrassed him more than us fighting, was GIR. Now the bandanna guys laughed.
They didn't take him very seriously. Although I do constantly hear them say he's one of the best Tallests
ever. " Hi GIR!" Lon said. "Where's Rose?" GIR asked. Lon looked around. "Going insane." She said.
Rose popped up. "PLEASE GET US OFF THIS PLANET IT'S A LIVING HELL!!" Rose screamed.
"Yes." I looked at her. "You don't cuss anymore." I said. "They put a shocking collar on me." She
said shaking. "Ouch." I said. "Well I have to go see you!" Lon said. "okay bye!" I said. I shuddered.
"Shocking collars isn't that a violation of our treaty?" I asked. "They are too far off to make them
follow it. And even then the magnetic field is so dangerous no sane Irken would go there anyway."
I nodded. "Master Taquitos?" GIR asked. "Uh..." Zim said looking around. "Would you like some?"
Zim asked. "Great idea Zim! GIR share the taquitos!" I told GIR. He smiled. "Taquitos?" Everyone
screamed. "Okay GIR I'll have one" I said picking it up. I ate it happily. GIR may maul you with a
taco, but he was greedy with Taquitos. But the most important thing is not to ask what's in them.
"Guys it's just a snack!" I said shrugging. GIR left eating his Taquitos. "Why are you so afraid of
GIR?" I asked. Zim stared at me as if I had lost my mind. "You forgot about 50 years ago." Zim told
me. Everyone shuddered. "That's why the Tallest never get breaks." He told me. I rolled my eyes.
"so GIR messed up the controls for one day, what are the chances of that happening again?" A guy
turned around "1,890,234 to 1,890,233" I scoffed. " that 1 chance he might not!" "2,000,000 chance he
will!" Zim said. "We don't get breaks anymore is one day off too much to ask?" I asked. "With the
little explosion waiting to happen yes!" Everyone else said. I stared. "GIR!" I called. "What Scary
Green Lady?" GIR asked. "Zim was telling everyone of how he loves your Waffles and they want one
too!" I said smiling. "Yay! I'm gonna put peanuts and soap in em'!" He said. Everyone looked at me.
"Tallest Zim why did she have to be the 2nd tallest in the Empire?" One of the guys asked. He
shrugged. I hit him in the shoulder. "I'm leaving, I hope you like waffles" I said as I watched GIR walk
in.
Lon on Kri
I can't find the crystals I used to make my armor in the first place. They were nice crystals easy to use.
I still have my cape though! I heard something rustle behind me and a cold air. "Hello Merna" A voice
said. "Red." I hissed. He was so annoying. "You seem to be defenseless may we talk now?" I turned
around with the first crystal I actually needed of the day. "I've always been defenseless against your
kind." I hissed at him. "Eh? No. No you haven't. Anyway, We aren't all bad it's just Kaia and her little
army." I rolled my eyes. "Kaia was your wife." "no. No she wasn't" He said quietly. My antennae
perked up. He always had interesting tidbits of dad's smeethood. "Eh?" "Kaia was..." He started then
sighed annoyed. "Someone you should be making armor to kill her with." It seems like Red really
doesn't like to talk about Kaia or Zim. "I can't find the crystals!" I told him. "Uh... Find stronger ones!"
I stared. "I saw you catch fire! It was kind of funny" He mumbled the last part. "Find crystals that can
take more beating than these" He said pointing at my one crystal. It caught fire. "Ow!" I cried dropping
it. "And make a helmet! You had lightning coming off of you! Make a helmet!" I glared. Whatever
reason he wanted to help must have been pretty personal with him and Kaia. Why can't he tell me
though? He disappeared. Helmet good idea. I picked up one of the Cinnabar crystals. It caught blue
fire very quickly and all because I thought of that. It didn't burn or fall apart either. I put out the fire.
4 hours later
I looked at my new armor. A beautiful Magenta reddish shade instead of traditional blue or purple.
It looked strong. I threw out my helmet the fire on these would be pretty controlled. I got in it. It was
freezing. I decided to try my fire. First I flexed my hands. They moved smoother than the last one.
I thought about the fire. It caught an odd shade of white. White fire. It was odd feeling, as I felt my
armor get hot for a second then get freezing. I felt something lunge at me. "What the?" I asked finding
myself on the ground (Which was now on fire) I saw a body in front of me. A female Irken body.
"Hey who are you?" I asked. She got up. "Gretel? Where's your crew and where's the ship?" I asked
looking around. "They took escape pods and My ship blew up in the atmosphere" She said. She
sounded a lot more dark and evil. "Did your voice change?" "Why yes I was screaming all the way
down, My voice is hoarse" I don't buy it. That voice was dark not hoarse. "Where's your pak?" I asked.
"Er..." She seemed to start. She did a bad coughing and having a Pak attack act. "Oh Pak..My Fell
on Pak my!" She cried. "You know I had a sister who almost died like that, you do a horrible acting job
at it. It's offensive." She didn't act Irken, she didn't talk like an Irken, She didn't look like an Irken that
much. So how was she an Irken? "Oh you saw through my act." She said getting up. "Well to answer
your question I'm a Virken" She said. That was impossible. I turned around to see her shape shift into
a Virken. I saw the real Gretel fall. "Is she dead?" I asked catching her. "No. Well the real one isn't yet.
She's up in space somewhere getting eaten by my little creations." She said laughing. This woman was
more insane than Su had been! At least Su had a reason! She shape shifted again. "Oh you mean her?"
I stared at this woman she looked like Su. "Well let's see if you remember me." She shape shifted
AGAIN into the person who killed my sister. Meryla. "Meryla?" I asked. "No I'm a spirit how about
this?" She finally left those skins. "I dropped his snacks he is going to kill me." She hissed. That she
couldn't be! "Quinn! Aunt Quinn!" I cried. She laughed a horrible evil laugh. I shuddered. "Why are
you doing this? You have no reason!" I yelled. She shook her head. "I was killed when I was barely
a smeet. I'm out to get all of who gave me the worst days of my life" She hissed. She then cackled.
"Why us?! Why Gretel!?" I asked. "Gretel's mother. And You..." She hissed grabbing my chin. "You...
are the offspring! The offspring of my brother! The one who let me die" She hissed. I quivered for a
minute. Then Red came in. "I thought you loved me." She hissed at him. "I did. But You are too out
of hand!" He said. She picked me up. "Prove it. Watch as I kill this smeet like you made my brother."
I was mortified. "What? Grandfather please no!" I cried. He looked at me. "Do it." I was mortified.
Wait... Why are they afraid of fire? He must know I can do something. She picked me up and started
to choke me. "Any last words?" she asked. I thought about fire. Nothing. "Yes you are the most bad
ass daughter of a bitch ever!" I yelled. I felt it shock me, I also felt the blue fire with lightning come
on. "What in the name of Irk!" She cried dropping me and backing off. I smiled. "You can't touch me"
I said gleaming. "I'm Quinn. I'm dead. But I do suppose you bore me now. I guess I'll go torture Zuzy"
She said disappearing. "Uh... Zuzy?" I asked not wanting to hear the answer. "That's your father." all
the color went from my face. "I need that engine." I told Red. He disappeared. I ran as fast as possible
to find Blackheart. "Blackheart!" I cried when I got there. "What? Ack! Fire!" he cried. I pulled my
hand back. "We need to finish that engine Dad's in trouble!" I told him. "And if we don't?" He asked
irritated. "First Quinn has my body imagined in her mind and after she kills dad she will shape shift
in to me and become Tallest!" I told him. "You don't become Tallest because you are related to one" He
laughed. "Take a ruler to me. I'm so much taller than you, that you have to strain yourself to look me in
the eyes." I told him. "I'm taller than everybody! So fix that engine!" I yelled. "I just need to test it."
I looked at it. He assembled pieces from my Voot in to an engine and put it in his voot. I got in it.
"Okay now just stand in the back." I stood in the back. I felt it rise off the ground quickly making me
unstable. "Okay." I stopped being on fire. (This was harder than last time, for my cape had actually
caught fire.) As it lofted to the ground I looked out. Gaz watched me a little longer than Blackheart had.
"Hey Gaz!" I said walking out. She glared. "Hey" She seemed different. Blackheart stared at us. Well
drifting over to me every once in a while. "Why's Blackhead staring at you?" She asked. With a hint of
Jealousy. "Are you jealous?" I asked freaked out. "No! He's just creepy" She said defensively (and a
little upset.) "Well everyone get in we're officially out of this... Place" I said. I knew Spirits were afraid
of fire now. I could save what's left of the Irken Empire! "So where are we going first? To save the
Empire and your father, or to save your to be Betrothed and lose our lives?" Blackheart asked. I held
a railing defensively. "Empire before the Irk." I told him. "Why do you guys always say that it's the
IRKen EMPIRE!" Blackheart asked. "The Irkens have a sworn duty to our nation." I told him. He
rolled his eyes.
"Them I'm sorry"
Sorry it took so long, this chapter sucked. If I ever wrote a creepy Tak chapter it was this one. Yes I bring the new enemy Quinn in. So Quinn's a Virken this is linking up Zim's childhood real well. I just
love Quinn's anger and evilness. R&R
