E6: Consul Warz (I)

"How long did this go on for?" You ask setting things straight in your mind and notepad.

"Quite a whilt actually," Fayt said while making the plushies of Dib and Zim do Mortal Kombat with various writing utensils.

"Seriously?"

"Yep."

"But this had to be a concern of Spirit World, right? Because Hiei and Kurama worked for them at one point. So why was it that this went unnoticed?"

"Why not? Spirit World had it's own problems to deal with. Like King Yama's chair exploded, Hell froze over (thawed then froze over again...), and a few other things."

"What about you? Did none of those things occur to you to be more important than following this story?"

"Oh no. Eclispe, Ara and I were the caues of all that was going on here. Hell anything that kept us occupied (that didn't invole the destrution of any realm) was a miracle to Spirit World!"

"Whose side are you on?"

"Which ever side amuses me the most."

a week after school let out...

It was quiet in the house, almost as if one were awaiting death when Dib and Hiei had managed to slip into Dib's bedroom window.

"Tell me again why we set up water balloon catapults in Zim's front yard?" Hiei asked after Dib had shut and locked the window.

"Zim hates water," Dib gave the most discrete answer.

"So just to torment him?"

"Yes," Dib held a triumphant pose. the alarm on his watch went off. He gasped. "A perfect way to end a perfect day. We got home just in time to watch Mysterious Mysteries. C'mon let's go!"

Oh great, Hiei thought as Dib led the way out the door and he reluctantly followed. The theme song of the show was blaring like and unwanted omen when the screen was changed to some form of g4 show. Gaz was in charge of the remote.

"Aw Gaz," Dib whined. "I've been waiting all week for that."

"Quit your whining," Gaz had her game turned off in her hand. "You can wait 5 minutes for your stupid show. I've been waiting all year for this."

As if on cue the screen went to a convention showroom that held nothing but video games, cosplayers, and the newest gadgets. A gamers heaven. On the screen in big bright neon letters read E-games 3 gamer's convention.

"Arriving at Endsville this Saturday for this year only is E-game 3!!" the announcer's voice echoed through the living room. "Don't miss out on the newest systems. I'll say it again at the Endsville convention center this year only. Be there or be quadralatieral!!1"

The commerical went off screen as Dib grabbed the remote and switched to Mysterious Mysteries. It was going through it's first segement.

"Now I missed the show's line-up," Dib pouted.

"we're going," Gaz announced.

"What?"

"We ARE going."

"But Gaz you would need adlut supervision to go to that thing. Besides Dad's too busy and he wouldn't let you go by yourself."

Gaz thought for a moment, then with a quicik glance at Hiei she had a plan.

"Hiei could take us."

"Wha-?"

meanwhile at another part of town...

"Yuck," Grim grouched after the commericial went off. "Another one of those brain rotting games. It's no wonder why the human race is falling."

"Oh we have to go," said Billy jumping on the couch. "C'mon Grim even you liked the Vampire Piggies game."

"Well..." Grim took that into consideration. "I'll admit slashing those piggies is amusing."

Kurama and Mandy, who were playing go on the floor, rolled their eyes.

"Shuichi, tell me you're not into those games," Mandy spoke as she placed a stone down.

"Well," Kurama countered her move making Mandy go on the defense. "I've played Tetris."

"Hmph. Newbie."

"Mandy you can't say anything bad about games," Billy chimed in. "You play those MOO games."

"It's MMO you dewb, and I only play them for the social interaction."

"Oh yeah," Grim began to joke. "'Spare monies 4 newbs.'"

"Yeah and 'Hey a girl let's cyber'" added Billy. "although I don't know what that means."

"You don't want to know," Mandy sighed as she thought up a startagey.

meanwhile at another side of town...again...

"We gotta go," Gir jumped up and down excitedly next to Zim in the lab. "We gotta go!!"

"Gir," Zim snapped. "Stop acting like an Earth-rabbit."

"But they have Dance Max 9!" Gir pleaded.

"Hmm, very interesting," Zim was too occupied with his work.

"Then they have all these other games with the cool weapons-"

"Wait weapons?"

"Uh-huh."

"So it's an Earth defense gathering?"

"I guess so."

"Maybe," Zim plotted aloud. "Just maybe if we infultrate their so called 'convention', we can find the humans' weakness and destroy their kind. The Tallest would be most pleased."

"So are we going?" Gir asked excitedly.

"Yes," Zim spoke with an evil grin. "Yes we are."
