Welcome to Invader X! So sorry about the suspense. As long as I'm apologizing, I may as well say, "Sorry!" To that family of monkeys I starved… Wait, pretend I didn't say that.

Chapter 17
The Mysterious Silhouettes
Tallest Red lounged thoughtfully on the bridge of the Massive. He doubted that Zim could survive, but it was possible.
Zim. Red thought with loathing. He could care less about X. If Zim called one more time than he would order for him to be destroyed, along with whatever planet he was on.
He was stirred from thought by his co-ruler.
"Hey Red?"
Red sighed. "What now?"
Purple glanced over his shoulder, before leaning in close and whispering softly. Red's eyes narrowed slightly and he leered at Purple.
"I could care less about your doughnuts. Now shut up."
Purple looked at Red as though he were the crazy one.
"My Tallest!" Called one of the technicians. "There is some call coming in for you from an anonymous source. Shall I patch it through?"
Red nodded. And the screen flickered on. Two, silhouettes appeared; both looked to be the same, the same odd shapes. It looked almost as though they were wearing chef hats.
"Rulers of the Irken Empire," One hissed voice deep and echoing. "We wish to do a bit of business regarding your newest enemies."
"And how would you know about that?" Red asked suspiciously.
The creature chuckled darkly. "We have our sources. We would like to kill this enemy, as well as his companions."
"What would you be asking for?"
"There is someone travelling with the Irkens you sent to hunt him," The second thing snickered, voice high and nasal. "One who did us a horrible disservice."
"And you wanna killem!" Asked Purple hopefully. "We'll let you kill all of 'em if you want!"
"Done!" The first voice said ominously. "We shall contact you when we succeed."
"And then you won't ever-"
"Hear-"
"From us-"
"AGAIN" They finished as one.
"How do we know if you'll succeed?" Red asked coldly.
"I am depression in a physical form. I can make one kill himself."
"And I am insanity!"
Red shrugged. "You will probably die but so what? Go ahead."
The second one's eyes narrowed, and he raised one hand, middle finger extended.
"WHY YOU LITTLE-!" Red shrieked, but the callers had just signed off. Red sighed. "Another chance that Zim'll die. I can take an insult for that."
This was a short chapter. Don't worry, more to come!
