Tallia had took control of taks ship, but it took minute to understand hand made controls but dib explained it to her easily before they took off. Dib rode with zim and skoodge and the others rode with tallia. Gaz talked talked with violet about skool work neither of them cared about. Gir sat in the back eating waffles and burping bubbles. Tallia talked with dib and zim threw a video communicator.
Dib raised an eyebrow at tallia "arnt you worried that you might be captured again if you go back to your home planet?"
"Yes but we're not not going to irk. We're going to the massive. There's mostly only soldiers there."
"Ist that a bad thing given your current position as an exiled defective?"
"I'd be happy if she was captured"zim rudely butt in"so long as she's off zims planet I'm happy." He smiled and his antennae perked up.
Violet moved into range to scold zim "that's not nice zim."
Zim frowned "I don't care."
Dib poked a finger in his face"you seemed to care when you told me her story was none of my business"
"Because it involved irken info you don't need to know human!"
Tallia smiled "ya know being defective doesn't make you any less of an irken, it just gives you a rare ability to choose your own path."
Tallia rolled her eyes "okay guys we need to cut off communications to jump to hyperspace" tallia quickly cut off the call. She pressed some buttons and the stars began to fly by so fast they blurred.
(Reds pov)
Red sat glaring at the floor and thinking to himself 'She didn't seem to care, she didn't acknowledge me or greet me like she used too, but when she looked at me she seemed to still have a little of the old feeling in her eyes' he smiled slightly' maybe she does still feel for me…'
Purple coughed to get his attention , red looked up "what?"
"You're thinking of her again arn't you?"
"Maybe…."red looked down and closed his eyes.
"Red you can't have feelings for her, she's a criminal defective and your the almighty tallest."
Red furrowed his forehead "Don't tell me how to feel purple"
"You can't be serious red, think of what the other irkens whould think when they found out their leader loved a defe-"
"I SAID DON'T TELL ME HOW TO FEEL!" Red jumped up , smacked purples snack bowl to the floor,and left the room.
(Purples pov)
'Hmm he'll regret his decision. Tallia will pai for her treachery one way 'he glared at the door and smiled evily'or another'
(Tallia pov)
Tallias antennae quivered nervously as they landed in the massive docking bay. Every one got out of their ships and meet the guards that were to escort them threw the massive. They lead them to the tallests private quarters. When they entered only purple was in the room. He was eating out of a cracked bowl and there was cheese dust and crumbs on the floor.
He stood and set down his bowl
"good your here , guard fetch red for me."
Red soon joined the group . Tallia sensed tension between them. Red spoke first avoiding eye contact with tallia.
"Welcome to the massive-what are those humans doing here?"
Zim quickly gave an half baked answer"they're my human slaves."
"Okay then…."Red tried to look at tallia but couldn't meet her eyes.
Purple reluctantly saved him from an awkward moment" Tallia we need to speak with you alone." The others were escorted out. Tallia looked up at red she noticed she'd grown a little she was now as tall as the bottom of his eyes.
(Tallest pov)
The tallest began to explain to tallia all about zims "mission". Well purple did red just stood there trying to work up enough courage to look her in the eyes.
"You see he's not a real invader. He's just a joke, a pathetic excuse of an Irken. He's just a crazy annoying worthless defective."
Both red and tallia glared at him angrily.
Red growled "leave!" Purple didn't object, he left the room without a fuss. Tallia noticed a small smile on his face. She narrowed her eyes.
(Tallia and red pov)
Red and tallia stood there for a moment before red finally spoke up "This is for you."he took a sir memory disk out of his pocket. Tallia took it. "You should probably leave before the control brains find out your here and order your capture."
Tallia looked at him a moment ignoring his advice."Red why haven't you talked to me much since I got here, it's like you hardly noticed me?."
Red hesitated nervously for a long minute. He finally admitted "I was afraid you were ignoring me because you hated me." He looked down and closed his eyes.
"I wasn't ignoring you. I was just tied up with him at the moment. And I'd never hate you, in fact while I was on earth" she got closer and narrowed her eyes"you were the on I missed the most." She leaned foreword. Red felt her lips gingerly meet his. His eyes opened slightly for a second then closed as his antennae lowered. he impulsively put his hands lightly on her hips as she put hers on his shoulders. A few long seconds passed before Tallias antennae perked at a sound outside. She instantly knew him and dib were fighting. She pushed herself away from red and backed away "I have to go." She left the room, leaving a blushing red with a lovestruck smile behind.
(Reds Pov)
Red stood there and watched her leave. He'd been taken off guard by this strange earth gesture. But the strangest thing was that he liked it. It sent a shock up his spine and she tasted sweet. Red touched his lips and sighed.
(My pov :) )
Everyone had returned to their ships and were heading back to earth when tallow revived a call from zims voot.
Zim sat on the other end with his fingers arched "tell zim, what did the tallest say to you?"
Tallia was about to answer when the ship lurched. A warning on a screen said the ship had been trapped in a trackter beam. She noticed they were surrounded by spittle runners and were getting closer and closer to the massive. Next thing she knew she was in a cell on the massive.
(Tallia pov)
Tallia sat up and pulled her knees to her chest. She felt tears run down her cheeks. A shadow fell over her. She looked up at purple looming over her.
He menacingly half laughed his words "looks like you're back were you belong. Tomorrow you'll be taken to the control brains to be executed in the most painfull way possible." He laughed evily and left.
"Tallia?" Tallia became aware Of the voices in the cell beside her.
"Yes I'm here. What Is it Violet?"
"I'm scared."
"Me too"
Tallia herd zim ranting on the other siEe"HOW DARE THEY IMPRISON THE AMAZING ZIM! AN INVADER DOESNT DESERVE THIS KIND OF TREATMENT!"
He kept at it for ten whole minutes intill Tallia couldn't take it any more "ZIM YOUR NOT AN INVADER!"
"LIES!"
"ITS TRUE THE TALLEST TOLD ME I recorded it."She handed zim a holorecorder threw the bars. He watched it.
"It can't be. IT CAN'T BE ! AFTER ALL I'VE DONE FOR THEM!?"
"it's true zim. Your just like me.a defective no one wants. A worthless defective.
Jim handed her back the recorder. As she took it he grabbed her wrist.
"Someone once said 'being a detective doesn't make you any less of an irken, it just gives you a rare ability to chose your own path." He let go of her wrist and she sat back.
After awhile she said "your right zim" she stood up" now let's bust out of here!"
