I really like making humans look bad, yet, they still play a very importent role in this story. this chapter is going to have a slight touch of Tak's past hope you like it :D

Chapter 6: Off the Streets

Zim and Tak are moving away from the ally, but the noice of the Irkens escaping the police are bringing them closer. Zim and Tak are now running, away from the ally but with all the other Irkens about, the police will spread out and arrest them. suddenly Tak felt a hand touch her shoulder, she quickly give a punch but was caught.

"Tak its me!"

It was Drik, Trained like Tak (and a little more) had caught the punch before it could hit him, he was hooded and had the same eye color as Tak did, Zim noticed this...

"Drik? What are you doing here?"
Zim intervined

"who is this?"

"co-worker" said Tak

"look Tak, we got to get out of here, follow me i know where the transport can pick us up, and whos is this?" said Drik

"He's our target, now we need to get moving!" said Tak

"woah woah wait! who the hell is guy?" Said Zim

"Im Drik, i can lead you to our boss who will tell you everything you need to know, now if you dont mind i would like my torso not filled with plasma bullets and having to have a very painful death like the Irkens you just saw!"

they ran across the street and went up two blocks, they went to the main street until Drik saw police guarding the area

"ah shit! we have to think of a different route!" said Drik

"did you really think we would escape through the main street? are you fucking stupid? I thought you said you knew the way!" said Zim

"I said i know where the transport can pick us up! i never said i knew where to go!"

"Fuck, just tell me where it is!" said Zim

"I thought the Rendezvous point was past the Town hall"

"well, when we asked for room to land, they didnt take it so kindly" said drik

The police guarding seem to have heard their commotion, there are just two of them

"look we can take'em they're just two of them!" said Zim

"I rather not get into a fight, but the Rendezvous point is in that direction"

"lets wait for them to come and knock them out cold"

Zim, Tak and Drik hid behind the buildings between the street, the two police guards seem to be armed with plasma Rifles,(A/N if you guys are having a hard time imagining what human plasma guns look like go watch the "alien" movies or look up M41A pulse rifle which is the rifles the police are holding)

"You said you heard something here?" said a disguised voice

"yeah, i heard Irkish around here" said another

Drik did a hand signal going: three, two, one, go!

They charged the two guards, one of them was tackled by Zim while Tak Kicked him uncoincous, while Drik disarmed the other and punching him hard in to helmet literally denting the metal

the two officers were uncouncious, and their helmets give a buzzing signal then a robotic voice giving off their coordnates

"ah shit! they'll be coming now!" said Tak

"quick this way!" said Drik

they ran up the street and contiued moving until they reached the city limits which was not far

"well, wheres your transport?" said Zim

"im getting to that!" Said Drik

Drik turned on his bracer and spoke in a radio signal

"Pilot, LZ pick up at 4QFJ1612, package is secure over"

"roger that, ETA 30 seconds" said the voice in the bracer (pilot)

soon enough the Transport has arrived and the trio entered the ship by the gravity lift, which Zim hasn't felt in many years

"whew, we made it" said Drik

soon they left the planey earth and become stationary in space

Later in Driks room aboard the transport Zim walks in and knocks on the doorway

"hmm?"

"It's me ZIm, i didn't think we've really properly introduced" Zim reaches out his hand

Drik stares at it for a moment, somewhat dubstruck of what he is doing, a gesture? he complies and shakes his hand with a vauge smile

"I'm Drik..Omeksreda"

Zim's Eyes Widened, broke the hand gesture and almost gasped

"your Tak's Brother!"

"SHHH!"

Drik cupped Zim's mouth and watches out the doorway to see if anyone had heard that, no one did. he realeses Zim

"yes, i am tak's Older brother"

"no wonder why i thought there was something between you two!" said Zim, he recalls seeing them both having purple eyes

"why do you want me silent about it?" said Zim

"its a long story"

"i have the time"

"well, take a seat, this may take a while"

Zim complied and took a seat next to him in the bunk bed

"you may not know this, but Tak was a Natural born Irken"

"really? I knew she was a defect, but Naturally born?"

"yes, but she doesnt know it"

"why?"

"When we were little, I always promised Tak that i would protect her,and... i failed... when the Empire found out we were Natural born we got sepatrated, they barged in our house our father rushed at them to protect us while mother took us in the basment to hide"

"what happend?"

"I-I was so stupid, I should've stayed with Tak and my mother, I was a teenager at the time and was stubborn, I left my mother and Tak to help Father hold them off...only to find him lying down on the kitchen floor dead..a pool of blood on the floor, and a knife his hand he didn't went down without a fight. that was a terrible sight for me, I was mad, I jumped at one of the soldiers and ripped up his neck with my teeth, then another knocked me off of him and kicked me in the head knocking me out cold"

"did they find your mother?"

"they did, I woke up and they pulled my mother outside the house, I ran outside to help but before i can do anything they shot her in the head she went limp and fell, then they pulled Tak into their ship...her screams for help scar me for life, knowing I can't protect her she screamed 'Drik help me please!' I was crying then one of the soldiers yelled to the other 'end this pathitic runt!' the lower ranking soldier pulled me back in the house and aimed his rifle at my face...he was shaking, he was different from the other soldiers one of them yells 'Comon! we're leaving!' he looks at me, he pulls the trigger but purposly misses and hit the floor, 'Im so sorry" he whispered and left with the other soldiers in the ship"

"i never knew Tak went through something like that, but does she remember?"

"no, the soldiers took her to become another fighter for the empire, they wanted to kill me because i was too old. the memory wiper only works on young Irkens"

Zim took in what Drik had just said, he never heard of Tak's past before

"are you ever going to tell her?"

"when the time is right Zim, for now she does not need to know"

there was an awkward silence for a moment, then Zim broke the silience

"well let me tell you about myself, my name is Zim Vrukeka ( the V is silent)

Sigh this is it for now, i've been going to pax east and really not having any time for this Grurae Horrariior -Val
