Nora's ship broke through the atmosphere of Earth easily, and Ehren could barely hold in his excitement. "Just think! Another one of us, Nora!"

"Another one of you, you mean. I've got her voice and personality, but I'm not her." Nora said.

"You say that, but you even remember what she did. I prefer to think that-" Ehren began, but an alarm went off.

"Missiles approaching." Nora said, her eyes turning red as she kicked into 'business mode', as Ehren called it. "Commencing evasive maneuvers."

"What are our chances of survival?" Ehren asked.

"One-hundred percent." Nora said.

"Oh? Really? What's our chances of wrecking?" Ehren asked.

"One-hundred per-" Nora was interrupted as several missiles smashed into the ship. Ehren grabbed Nora and shielded her with his body as the ship smashed into the ground.

Gaz had just lit up a cigarette when she saw a ball made of flame smash into the park, not a mile from where she was standing. She blew smoke out of her mouth, sighing, though she truly was excited about what this might mean. She stood, dropping the cigarette and putting it out with her boot heel, then walked towards the smoking wreck of a ship.

"Ehren, get up." Nora urged, lightly pushing on Ehren's chest.

"The...signal." Ehren said, struggling to stand up. The ship's side was completely burst open, and he crawled through the open side, the metal cutting his skin. He grabbed his special PAK and put it on, metal straps surrounding his chest and arms. "We need to...find the...others." Ehren coughed.

"Ehren, you're barely conscious!" Nora said.

Ehren fell to the ground, passing out. Nora muttered "Crap," her white robotic eyes scanning for any humans. She knew why Ehren would want to find others like him, but she couldn't understand why.

'Yes you do. I was one before...' Nora thought, then scolded herself. 'I'm a robot SIR unit, nothing more, nothing less.' Nora sighed, then noticed the human running to the wreckage. "Stop, human!" Nora shouted, wishing he had guns.

"I can help you." Gaz said. "I've seen Irkens before."

The machine part of Nora said the risk wasn't worth it. However, the Irken part needed to save Ehren. "He isn't a normal Irken, human. Who are you?"

"Gaz Membrane. I know Zim." Gas said. "Bring this alien to my house."

"His name's Ehren." Nora said.

"Hello, Almighty Tallest. Uh, why did you call Zim?" Zim asked, looking at the screen.

"There's an anti-Irken assassin after you, to stop you from completing the mission!" Red said.

"WHAT?! Someone DARES defy Zim?" Zim shouted.

"Yeah." Purple chuckled. "And, like, he wants to kill you."

"ZIM WILL KILL HIM FIRST! Do not worry, Tallest. The assassin won't stop my mission!" Zim said, running off.

"He's gotten a bit taller." Purple noted.

"He's only five feet." Red said.

"Still." Purple said, turning the connection off.
