I HATE THIS!
Somebody, stop Zim from flying over here in his ship! Please!
Oh wait, you can't help me. You're just reading this, wondering how this is going to end for me, Zim, Tak, Mimi, and the Tallests.
This sucks.
I'm sitting here, Mimi moving away and closer to her abusing master.
This hurts, it does.
I've had a near-death experience already and no thanks I don't want any more!
Tak couldn't help but laugh her head off after they and Zim hung up.
Zim always came through for me.
But tonight, Zim was going to die.
I saw Tallest Red pull wheel out something that looked like a guillotine. But Zim told me that the most common way to kill an Irken is to rip off their Pak unit; that would give them exactly ten human minutes to exist.
Tallest Purple pulled out a bag of mini doughnuts. "Why do we need a guillotine again?" he asked with a mouthful of jelly-filled goodness!
"Because," his fellow Tallest replied with an evil grin, "I want to make sure that Zim is dead!" He cackled like a witch.
Good Lord I wish I could shapeshift now!
Purple was eating his doughnuts so messily, he dropped a few on the ground. I stared at one of them. Mimi noticed me. She brought a doughnut from the ground and handed it to me.
I reached through the rope and netting around me to grab it. "Thank you," I whispered.
She quietly gestured to her large gash on her left side. She telepathically said to me, "I couldn't repay you for helping me heal from this."
Mimi's a sweet girl, but she's just fallen with the wrong crowd.
I sighed and bit on my Irken doughnut.
I large, noisy bang sounded on the door behind the evil Irken group.
The bang came again and again as the door loosened and fell forwards.
"Zim!" I called.
"I'm here, Delilah," I whispered to me, "Let her go."
"They're going to kill bo-"
"SHUT UP!" Tak screamed.
The Tallests and Tak huddled together in a meeting.
"We can pretend to let her go," Red suggested.
"But once he's dead," Purple added.
"She will suffer the same," Tak finished.
"Delilah," Zim ran up to me, tears almost falling. "Are you OK?"
"I'm fine," I said.
"Mimi! Get out of here!" He tried to shoo her away, but she didn't listen.
"Mimi's a friend," I cooed to him.
"But-"
I leaned in closer into a kiss to shut him up.
I'm in love with an alien, and I like it...
Mimi sighed and looked away, thinking of love.
I think she's in love with someone too. Who?
Zim parted from my lips, looking surprised at me. "You still love me? After all this? ...Why?"
"Because," I spit out, "You are the kindest, nicest, most loving extraterrestrial I've ever met and I love you so much..."
He leaned in closer to my face for another kiss, but was ripped away from me by the collar, courtesy of Red.
"Get in the damn guillotine, now."
Purple shoved Zim in the guillotine head-first, crying.
"Fine," Tak turned to me, "You're free," she lied. She untied me from the rope and netting. She let me out of everything.
I was free as a bird.
Big mistake on their part.
