Sitting in the corner, in a sack, bored to death. Delilah here.
I stared at Tak and the Tallest, waiting for them to screw up in any way that would be to my advantage. They still didn't know that I was awake, but Mimi came and sat next to me in robot form, trying to comfort me.
I sighed lightly. I have a useful talent that I just talk to someone in a smart-aleck way, I can instantly piss them off and sometimes they spit out useful information that I can use.
I could do that, but I'll try a sneak peak at info first.
The big window in the front of the room turned into a screen and Zim popped up. He couldn't see me because I was shoved in a corner, but I could see him.
"Where is Delilah?" he demanded.
"It's not that easy, you pathetic child," Tak said, intimidating, "Come over here to the Massive and I'll give her back, no traps."
"What the catch?" he asked.
"Oh... Nothing!" Tak lied.
"You know I can't trust you; there's something to this, I know it..."
"DON"T COME!" I screamed at him, "THEY'RE GOING TO KILL YOU! LET ME DIE!"
"What?" Red screamed at me, "You're awake?"
"Yeah!" I yelled back fearlessly.
"Delilah's dead meat unless you come over here," Purple threatened.
Zim paused a long while, but finally answered, "OK... I'm coming, BUT YOU BETTER LET HER GO!"
"We will," Tak said.
She crossed her fingers behind her back. She was lying the entire time, and I hadn't noticed.
I haven't said this before, but if I feel an emotion too strongly (for example: rage, fear, sorrow), it can be a real pain to determine a lie from a truth.
We were both going to die here.
