Hey everyone I know it's been a long time since I've updated. Sorry but, school, graduation, husband, I found a kitten that I FINALLY found a home for. And I lost my internet for a while.
The story of Gavin and Rose isn't mine, this is actually an experience and story made by none other than Geoff and Griffin Ramsey.
Also.
Blame the writers block.
WARNING: this chapter has some swearing (F-word is mentioned and so is the D-word)
thank you.
Zim: Hey you know that quote that we stated earlyer? "The things we do for ourselves dies with us, but whatever we do for others is eternal?" I don't know...I think its good.
Nny: so... do you think that's true?
Zim: depends.
Rose: I think it's true. the people that take action leave a legacy, pass it on to one another and eventually that leaves a chain reaction, a butterfly effect in a way you know? "What I did made history" or " I did that and I changed part of the world" or "I changed a part of someone's life". Thats a cool thought you know?
Zim: so you think it's true.
Rose: I know it's true.
Zim: ah really? how so?
Rose: *points towards Nny* if it wasn't for rosa parks or martin luther or our forefathers who decided to disobay and stand up against curruption, do something for someone else, Nny and I wouldn't be able to walk into a building without being selfishly discriminated. these white men always live in fear, and they still do, they fear what they can't control. they fear what doesn't look like them. Why do you think everyone loves Superman or Metroman despite the fact that they are different? that they're not human? It is because they LOOK human. So for a human, to love something that looks like a human is not a sin.
Nny: did i ever tell you how much i hate you?
Rose: why?
Nny: because you're a young smart ass... what the hell is that?
Rose: you don't have to be old to be smart. And i don't call my opinions smart or wise, i just think of them as observations, then i put my thoughts into them. Besides. This is my life. I'm only responsible for what I say, not for what you or others understand. Some say society is good, I say it's bad. Its a ying-yang situation, sometimes the best answer is ' i don't know' and all you can do is live life to the fullest. not with money, money just ruins and corrupts everything. but with love and giving. leaving actions to pass on and create something new. leave a legacy. some thing eternal, because we are all part of something bigger, we are part of the universe. Which in part...is my idea and opinion.
Nny: exactly what i mean.
Tucker: I love you guys, you know tha'?
Rose: what is love?~
Tucker: Baby, don' hurt me~
Nny: shut up, I hate that song.
Rose: you know we just totally went off the subject and the quote right?
Tucker: who cares, right Zim?
Zim: Love. The most painful, most wonderful and most defineless emotion there is.
Nny: HA!
Rose: Love, the most undefined emotion to ever exist.
Zim: "you know what love is? Love is scrubbing puke off the floor when your stupid friend doesn't know when to stop drinking, and scrubbing puke out of his hair only to have him laugh in your face. Not even a "thank you"...You know, if I wasn't so busy taking care of you guys and smashing things I would have taken over the world. Right Zim?"
Dib: "What a great freaking "family" I have."
Gaz: Words by Rose Lovat. Mother of five.
August 30'th (one year later...)
"A family is a place where minds come in contact with one another. If these minds love one another, the home will be as beautiful as a flower garden. But if these minds get out of harmony with one other it is like a storm that plays havoc with the garden," said Rose, the land lady with a soft humm as she cooked breakfast for her "family".
Zim who was still getting used to to the idea to being in Rose's "family", sat quetly on the counter watching his... friend cook.
Apparently Rose, the landlady was an exelent cook. Although she did screw up every now and then, Zim had slowly started to think of the odd human was a more of a mother figure than the typical land lady. She always seemed to be caring for anything that would walk or crawl through her apartment door.
Or through the bathroom window in Zim's case.
She was, like it or not, in a way Zim's mother. She along with the men that lived in the apartment brought out the things in Zim that had long been forgotten.
A feeling that had long been eliminated and burried, deep within the Pak's memory units.
Zim figured it was that mutual liking between family members...that filial thing that humans would talk about on tv or whatever.
"Back then I lived in Miami, you know in Florida? America's wang? Anyways, since I was working in a restaurant called Mango Bay. Great place, I was one of the cooks there, afterwords they let me go to some culinary academy called CIA, only three in this world exist, one in Texas, one here in New York and one someplace called Singapore. Anyways- since I was working in a restaurant, I just developed the tallent for cooking and ended up loving it. You know? I was working up, living the highlife, studying to be a lawyer...but you know...I just thought, "I love seeing people smile," I actually loved cheering people up and watching them enjoy themselves and enjoying my food. So I thought "I can't change the world...but hey let me change at least a small part of it...with my cookies," sounds corny but hey, it's me."
Zim chuckled as he listened to Rose.
"Yo Zim, you're not allergic to eggs are you? Just meat right?" asked Rose, flipping an omelet into a plate.
"Zim get's noxious, but eh~" said Zim with a shrug.
"Alrigh', I'll just make you some toast and my famous powdered donuts, lot's o' carbs," said Rose who was now working on cooking some bacon. The meat sizzling as she placed them in a pan over the stove.
Zim only smiled as he watched her. It's been a year now since he came to live here...and for now...He has gotten comfortable and had started to forget about what happened in his home. Forgeting the people he dealt with, the Irkens that he reported to, his half-forgoten dream.
That half fogoten dream. His half-forgoten selfish personality...
Five months since Zim stopped hiding himself from Rose, Johnny, Gavin, Max and Tucker. Johnny, or Nny as he was called already knew about Zim since the moment he saw the young irkens burnt skin and skin coloration. Somehow Nny had been abducted by aliens before at some point. He knew how to tell the difference between a human and an alien in a second.
Also Rose tried to give him a bath that same night with the regular water humans used.
Man did that burn.
"So Zimmy my love, you wanna take a drive today? It's a really nice day," sighed Rose.
Just because she didn't really feel like it, Rose decided to skip work, call in sick and 'hang' in her home.
"Hey Rosey! Here's a curse for you, may all your bacon burn!" laughed Max, coming into the kitchen in his red and white polka-dot boxers. His blonde locks tangled and spread in various directions. Bed hair.
"Shut up Max!"laughed Rose, flinging a onion peice at the boy.
"OW! my eye!"
Zim relaxed in the back seat of Rose's Jeep.
Tucker, the dark-skinned man was asleep to the left of Zim, snoring softly as Rose drove, through the city that never sleeps.
Gavin, otherwise known as 'The Brit' was in the passenger seat, awake and laughing and talking away. After a few months of living with these strange people Zim had come to like The Brit's accent, along with gaining favor with Rose.
Gavin was somewhat a likable character at the most, a little annoying at times... but still likable.
" You know Zim. Back in the day, I was working in some office down in New Jersey, working long hours, didn't even have time to eat or sleep properly. I was on the ramen noodle diet for almost six months, I couldn't take it. So one night I was at the hospital because I didn't eat at all, I had an ulcer in my stomach. So once I got out, I took my probiotics, and well...the company that I was working with went bankrupt. So with nothing to do I finally looked at myself. I was miserable, but I had everything. Nice apartment, great accessories, but I never had a chance to use them. I was...working hard...living well, in accessory...but miserable. It's not like the teley or the movies make it seem. It's hard to reach comfort and happiness in this world," said Gavin, explaining his life to Zim as Rose drove out of the city.
"So one day I took off...left work, left home, left everything without warning. I ended up by the Brooklyn bridge... just staring at the waters. That's how I met Rose. Ten years ago... Funny. My life has never been this bizarre or fun since she said 'Hi' to me the first time," laughed the Brit.
"You remember what I told you the first time I met you?" asked Rose, a mischievous smile spreading on her full lips.
"What did you say?" asked Zim, curious as he watched the city from the back seat window.
"Do you ever wonder why we're here?" said Rose, giggling.
"That was so strange too she was just standing there and she just asked me that as she was walking by!" said Gavin laughing.
In the car everyone was having a good time.
An hour had already passed.
Zim watched the city move and start to dissapear around him as Rose drove and held a conversation with the dark haired, dark skinned, dull voiced man.
Tucker, now awake and laughing.
Zim listened.
"Yeah, so you know I got to see New Orleans in a way I never saw it before which was sober," laughed Rose, her red hair turning and tumbling through the wind. The car finally speeding up as it drove out of the city and into the highway.
Tucker laughed and got comfortable in his seat, rolling up the window slightly in oder to hear Rose's story.
As usual she had some tale to tell.
"Oh Rose you're telling that story?" said Gavin nervously.
"Ugh, Your lucky that I love you, Gav. You really are. Okay so here's what happened, I was responsible for keeping Gavin alive," said Rose with an annoyed tone.
Zim chuckled slightly along with Tucker and Gavin.
"It was my first time in new orleans so.." said Gavin with a light shrug. An embarrassed blush coating his cheeks.
"And he had the quitisential new orleans experience," said Rose, honking the cars horn at some driver that cut her off.
"so basically Gavin was just running head-long into walls and you were pretty much trying to prevent him-" laughed Tucker his sentence being cut off by an embarrassed Gavin.
"pretty much I-I'll give you a little-" laughed Gavin nervously.
"Did you get a lot of beads?" asked Zim, trying to urge the story on, "You know put 'em into a little bag and bring them back."
"No, No, 'cuz most people start drinking in new orleans around ten or eleven pm. But Gavin was asleep well before then," said Rose.
"That is not true! there were people at like eight thirty in the morning walking around with hand grenades, so I don't even-"
"Hand grenades?" asked Zim, interrupting Gavin's protests.
"That's like the yard, tall drinks right?" asked Tucker, his attention turned to the window.
"yeah," said Gavin.
"Oh is that what that is? Nice," said Tucker.
"yeah," said Gavin, trying to get into the subject of drinks, "they sell that in Vegas-"
"So the first night we're there," said Rose, continuing with the story, earning a silent "Darnit," from Gavin, "we went out early had a little bite to eat. Gavin got drunk, we went back to the hotel, then he passed out," she sighed.
"HA HA you're such a romantic. At heart!" laughed Tucker, poking Gavin on the shoulder.
"What's that supposed to mean?" asked Rose, confused.
Zim snorted. EVERYONE in the house knew that Gavin had a...what did the humans call it? Ah, yes a "crush" on Rose. Sadly, the red haired human was about as clueless as Gir...
Zim sighed at the thought of his old companion. He wondered what the little SIR unit was doing now.
"I stayed up all night like watching tv, because you know-"
"you could have gone out again-" said Gavin, interrupting Rose, and bringing Zim back into the conversation.
"Eh- Ah-un know. Anyways, the next night or the next day we get up, get out, we walk around Uh... I don't know if you know this about Gavin, but if your in a new town, it's a fucking requirement of our freindship that we have to go to the ghost tour, for that town," sighed Rose.
"well- yeah," said Gavin, shrugging his shoulders.
"everywhere we go," said Rose, her tone frustrated.
"Obviously," said Tucker with a smile.
"How many towns have ghost tours?" asked Zim, curious.
"Alot of towns, alot of cities," said Gavin, "most cities do."
"yeah," said Rose, with a shrug.
"huh," said Zim, looking out the window again. The city was long gone, now there was just highway and the remaining touches of outskirts.
"So we, kill some time until the ghost tour starts, the way they do these deals is that they put 'em in a bar, so that you get drunk before the ghost tour and then half way through they stop at the bar again, so you can take a leak and uhh...drink some more and then you finish the ghost tour. So Gavin's drinking. You know. ALOT. And uh.." Rose sentence wavered as she carefully changed lanes.
"Well It's New Orleans you should be drinking. It's like Vagas, you have to gamble," said Tucker with a light chuckle.
"Yeah," said Rose not really paying attention.
"the one thing is that when I was there, the entire time I didn't feel like I got drunk, that is until it was way too late," said Gavin.
" Okay," said Rose, getting back into the conversation, "I knew he was kindof drunk, because of his behavior? Like Gavin's usually very polite and nice, and I got a clue when he tried to start shit with the bartender, kind of," she laughed.
"of course," said Zim rolling his eyes.
"and he was kind of a jerk to him and I was like 'Wow that's very odd of him,' " continued Rose.
"I was not-" argued Gavin.
"you were!" countered Rose.
"Okay here's the thing, I think- I know you've worked in a lot of restaurants, and I-I just think that-like…I just know what's expected as far as how you serve people, and if you sit there and you see somebody waiting, and your chatting with your fucking friends and you're not helping them, then you're an asshole and I'm just going to glare at you. I didn't say anything, I just stood as close as I could to the fucking table and I just glared at him until he was like, okay I guess I'll help this person," explained Gavin.
"Just mad-dog him?" asked Tucker.
"…" Rose stayed quiet and glared at the road.
"Anyway-" she continued after a few seconds of silence, "I just, I had to smooth things over with the guy, he was actually really nice and he turned me on to a new album, uh- he was listening to 'girl talk' we were talkin' about it."
"Oh yeah?" asked Tucker.
"And he turned me on to '500 days of weezy', which is- I was talking about the 500 days of summer soundtrack mixed with lil'wayne, its pretty good, but anyway- back to the story," coughed Rose, "So this is our second and last night in new Orleans. We only have two nights."
"Last night in new Orleans," said Tucker.
"And so…we go uh…we uh.." Rose said trying to move into a new lane again, carefully as she could.
"Gavin's like, shaking already," said Tucker, teasing the Brit.
"Oh yeah, I got lost for a second in my head," said Rose as she relaxed once again.
"Super great," said Zim grinning.
"So we go on the ghost tour, the first half of the ghost tour, this is after he's already been kind of a jerk to the bartender and I can tell he's acting a little weird, and uh… so we go on the first half of the ghost tour, and come back and there's like a twenty minute break where you get some more drinks, and Gavin drinks like, two huge drinks, then he gets weird," said Rose.
"Oh no," said Gavin, his head in his hands.
"then he goes over and he tells the tour guide that she's a terrible tour guide, and he starts it," said Rose
"WOW!" cried Tucker.
Zim on the other hand snorted disbelievingly and stared at the Brit.
Gavin of all people was well known for being polite and nice. Not rude.
"She was a horrible tour guide!" protested Gavin.
"He starts insulting her, and telling her how bad she is at her job, and how she shouldn't be a tour guide," said Rose, her voice laced with laughter.
"WOW!" sad Tucker again, his brown eyes wide.
"Because, she's butchering it!" continued Rose,"And then there was, okay there were two tour guides, there was this lady and then a weird little dude, and we were so happy we didn't get the weird little dude, and then he started telling the tour guide how he initially was happy to get her because he didn't wanna go with the weird little dude, but even the weird little dude would've been better than her!"
"HAHAHA!" Tucker burst out laughing as Zim continued to stare disbelievingly at Gavin.
"Oh, I did not say that!" said Gavin.
" Yeah YOU DID!" laughed Rose.
"What was so bad about the tour that you got angry?" asked Zim.
"there was nothing wrong with it. Perfectly fine tour," said Rose.
"NO! she was- I'm sorry, I only remember two stories but they were horrible-" said Gavin, trying to defend himself.
"It was perfectly fine!" said Rose.
"No, she was not a good story teller, but I shouldn't have said that," said Gavin.
"And then, Gavin did research online," continued Rose, " there's like twenty tours and apparently there's a website that rates freaking ghost tours and he's like reading reviews! He puts a lot of work into ghost tours."
"well yeah if you're going to waste your money. It's like Yelp!" said Tucker.
"Yeah, but I don't wanna go into the city and get some dumb ghost tour that's not any good. Obviously," said Gavin.
"So anyway, so then, after he undresses this poor lady at the bar in front of everybody, he goes to the bathroom, he comes out just…wobbling, he looks like a freaking pinball. And he comes out and he goes, "I lost my wallet," and I go "Did, what do you mean?" and he's just got this stupid grin on his face and he says "I lost my wallet!" and I go "did you have it with you?" and he goes "Mmm Hmmm!" just like that!" said Rose.
"HAHAHAHA!" laughed Tucker.
"and I go "What do you mean?" I was like "Did you lose it in the bathroom?" "Mmm Hmm!" and I go "well go back in the bathroom and get it!" so he goes back in the bathroom comes out and he goes "I lost my wallet," and I go "was it not in the bathroom?" and he goes "Nu-uhhm!" and I was like "Why are you so happy? You lost your damn wallet!" so then it starts, the craziness I mean, other people from the tour, they're like, "oh no you lost your wallet?" they start to help him. So they start looking for the wallet, they're tearing the bar apart looking for it! I retrace our steps throughout the bar, and then I realize Gavin's gone, just mentally GONE! I'm like "are you sure you had your wallet with you?" and he would just look at me and go "Mmm-Hmm!" Jeez!" explained Rose.
"Nice," said Tucker amused by the story.
"and he would only answer in Mmm-Hmm's and Nu-uhhm's and so, I'm like "Well crap!" I have to now backtrack through down town New Orleans, looking to see if he dropped it somewhere or like sat down and left it somewhere while we were on the tour," said Rose.
"And you guys had to catch a flight and stuff," said Zim.
"Yeah," said Rose, "we had to get a flight and so…he needed his ID and stuff. And so I'm like "what do I do with Gavin?" 'cuz I realize at this point he's gone, so I had to stick him with the tour people and I'm like "Stay with them whatever you do," and I run around New Orleans backtracking, trying to find his wallet, I can't find it anywhere, I go back I find Gavin like, following like plotting behind them, the people from the tour, and Gavin is like, not able to keep up and he's just bumping into stuff, and I go "well crap." I also think that the tour is trying to get away from him. 'Cuz he's already talked crap to the lady leading the tour, and there's like a family, some people that have a newborn kid that we were like, nice and talking to and then Gavin went insane, and I can tell they're scared of him, you know? And they're just like "keep him away from our baby," you know? And Gavin's just walking, freaking walking into mailboxes and stuff going "MMM-HMMM!" she laughed.
"HAHAHA!" this time Zim laughed. The idea of a human bumping into things like an idiot gave him a mental image of the Tallest doing the same thing. He would kill just to see that and sell it to the Irken media. Or at least publish it on Irk's network.
"And uh- And so I go and I grab him and I go "I gotta get you back to the hotel," It's nine p.m. and I'm like "I gotta get you back to the hotel so I can calm you down." So I like, literally have to walk him to the hotel, and he's just like bumping into me and bumping into everyone, I just think he was intentionally knocking into people, and then he'd like, bump into somebody and be like "WHUT?" you know and I was like 'Oh god!" he's looking to get me into a fight!" said Rose.
"your exaggerating! Look I'm sure your exaggerating because you're an exaggerator," said Gavin.
"No, no!" protested Rose.
"I don't remember this, but I'm sure-"
"Hahaha, "I don't remember" jeez," Tucker laughed, interrupting Gavin.
"Oh yeah sure, have fun defending the shit you don't remember!" countered Rose.
Zim laughed at that one.
"Uh, and so I finally get him to the hotel, and then, he's really wobbly at this point, so I stand him against the wall, I'm like put him against the wall and I'm like "just stay here for a second," and I'm fishing the key out and while I'm doing that he's doing that thing, you know that drunk people do, he's just standing against the wall and he just slowly starts to fall, and he just falls with his head on the wall, just like with his face dragging across it like zzzzzzzzzzt! He slid down the wall and just slammed his head onto the ground," said Rose, turning the wheel and driving into an exit route.
"Ohhh, man," said Tucker.
"And then I look at him and he's covered in blood," said Rose.
"Ohhhhh," cooed Tucker.
"hee, hee," Zim said, clearly amused.
"He's ripped his chin up, he's got like these huge gashes on his chin and he just starts crying," said Rose.
"Awww," teased Tucker, poking the now beet red Gavin.
"He just starts sobbing, like "Bohoohoohoohoo, muu wahh," just sobbing!" said Rose.
"do you remember this?" asked Zim.
"Hell no. No I don't remember," said Gavin in an embarrassed tone.
"And I'm like, "It's okay, it's okay! You're not hurt, it's okay I'll clean you up," and he's just like "It hurrrbuhuhurhoohoo," sobbing. So he just went from happy to just depressed in just two seconds," laughed Rose, "so then I get him into the hotel room and he like, runs into the bathroom and just starts throwing up everywhere."
Tucker let air push past his lips in a sign of amazement, "Pshhhhh!"
"And I'm like "Hell, what am I gonna do?" so I'm like "Are you, Uh, do you need any help?" and he's just "I-I bleh, leamme alone, I wanna be alone," you know? And I'm like "okay fine," and so, he's just like throwing up in the toilet, and was just there like "I don't know what to do," so I check on him every couple of minutes and I just started watching tv and hanging out. Every ten minutes I'd go back into the bathroom and check on him, and I'd be "everything okay? Can I get you anything?" and he'd be "Nooo just bleh, please shut the door," and I'm like "okay." So uh… eventually I fall asleep," explained Rose.
"What about the wallet? What happened to the wallet?" asked Zim.
"Oh yeah! freaking wallet was in the hotel room the whole time!" said Rose, glaring at Gavin for a second before returning her eyes to the road.
"okay," said Zim, satisfied.
"He'd never taken it," growled Rose.
"I didn't take it because I knew I'd probably lose it," said Gavin.
"Yeah, so that whole thing, thirty people looking for a wallet and it was in the hotel room the whole damn time. Uhh, thank you for reminding me of that by the way," said Rose.
"You're welcome," shrugged Zim.
"And uh, that was the first thing I was greeted with, when I was carrying bloody Gavin into the room," said Rose.
"But I did lose, I did lose something, I lost my new bracelet and your jacket," said Gavin.
"He did," said Rose, frustrated,"he did leave my very nice jacket at the bar, which was gone and a bracelet which he had owned for about four hours."
"Yeah, that sucks," said Gavin.
"So, anyway, I dose off, because I'm a little drunk, I'm buzzed, and I dose off and I wake up, and I go into the bathroom and he's on the floor, he somehow got away from the toilet and he's face down, on the ground and there's vomit, everywhere. It's in his hair, on the floor, it's on the wall, he threw up, and this is like a very nice hotel, you know a Marriot it's a big bathroom and he covered it in puke," growled Rose, recalling the memory.
"Oh whatever," huffed Gavin.
"It's huge and he just covered it in PUKE!" said Rose.
"Maybe you were possessed by a ghost, from the tour?"said Zim, remembering his big-headed stalker, who believed in ghosts.
Dib.
"Hell no, this was all him, I had to fight him, too get him out of his clothes and get him in the shower-"
"Which is a typical night for you," teased Tucker pointing to Zim.
Rose snorted at the interruption as Gavin burst into laughter.
"Hahahaha!"
"Shut up," growled Zim, remembering his bath time. Of course he would bathe in paste, but Rose always insisted on taking baths every night.
"You're not an animal!" she would say.
" Anyways," continued Rose, "Then I had to start cleaning up all this puke, so I had to use every towel in the hotel room, and I'm cleaning up puke, it takes me about half an hour to clean up all the puke."
"gross," said Zim, shivering. Thinking of how disgusting and germy it must have been.
"It's really gross, and I'm putting the towel in bags and luckily we had a balcony because it smelled atrocious, and I just put it on the balcony outside and I uh, I go and check on Gavin and he's just laying naked on the floor of the tub just going " uuuguuugugugugugugugu~" siaid Rose, making a funny noise and acting like Gavin when he was on the floor of the tub, naked. Her tongue was out and everything.
"Oh lord," said Gavin blushing madly again.
"HAHAHAHA!" Tucker laughed, snorting again.
" and I'm just thinking "is he going to die what the hell?" and so I'm like "can I get you anything? Do you need anything?" and he's just like "I just wanna be in the bathtub blurg~" and like "okay?" and he just sat in the shower while the hot water was on him, for three hours. Then eventually I would fall asleep and I'd wake up and go check on him, go to sleep and go check on him, and you know I'd doze for about half an hour and just make sure that he's okay, and he'd always just be like "leave me alone, I'm fine," and then eventually at like four in the morning he just gets up and goes into his bed and he's just laughing his ass off. And this bastard, he's all like, "did I throw up everywhere?" and I'm like "yeah," and he's like, "HAHAHAHAHA!" and then he's like "did you clean it up?" "yes, I did," and he's like "HEEHEEHEEHEE!" this bastard! Its four in the damn morning and he's just laughing his ass off when I just spent half a freaking hour, cleaning up his puke!" said Rose, punching Gavin's shoulder.
Zim was laughing with Tucker this time.
"Unbelievable," snorted Zim.
"He got re-drunk and happy in the shower somehow," said Rose.
"It's like you went up and then peaked and then you went down and then you hit that drunk line again," said Tucker.
"it was the craziest, craziest thing I've ever seen," said Rose,"he's in laying in bed just laughing to himself, like giggling."
"I found it really funny for some reason," said Gavin.
"Hahaha," said Rose sarcastically.
"I just found it funny for some reason, well, here's the thing I remember…well the only thing I kind of feel bad about is insulting the tour guide," said Gavin.
"Oh man,"said Rose, shaking her head.
"Because, I don't wanna be mean," said Gavin.
"Not forcing your land lord to clean up vomit, in the middle of the night," said Tucker, snorting.
"That being said," continued Gavin and ignoring Tucker, "I'm sure that she, the tour guide deals with belligerent drunk people all the time, but... when somebody is horrible at their job. They should get a new job right?" asked Gavin.
"I should also point out he had been drinking-" said Rose.
"and I was helping her...Discover that she's not really good at that-" interrupted Gavin.
" Shut up I'm talking, so Gavin had been drinking, uh, Hurricanes, which are those obnoxiously red drinks," said Rose.
"I actually had- no...well," Gavin fumbled over his words as he tried to recall what he was drinking that night.
"So his vomit was radio active,"said Rose.
"Oh, no" said Zim, cringing a bit.
"It was like- bright red puke everywhere,"said Rose.
"that's, thats true right there, that its red,"said Gavin.
"AND, and -"
"well that's the thing," said Gavin.
"He did nothing but- I wanna finish this," said Rose, poking Gavin as he interrupted her again.
"okay," he mumbled.
"And he did nothing but eat oysters the entire time we've been there," said Rose.
"OHHHHHHH," said Tucker and Zim in complete disgust.
Gavin only laughed at their reaction.
"because he loves sea food, so I cleaned up bright red oyster puke. for at least half an hour," said Rose.
"oh lord, I wanna throw up!" said Tucker holding his stomach.
"It was freaking atrocious," said Rose, "and I had to put the bag of puke towels in the balcony because it smelled so bad. That night, Fa-breeze was like, my best friend."
"Oh wow," said Zim.
"And I made him take the bag out in the morning so, he got his punishment, and he was hung over for two days," said Rose.
"Yeah, I had the walk of shame to the trash," said Gavin.
"Why didn't you just leave it for the lady?" asked Tucker.
"NO! I would never do that! I had to leave extra money for the tip because it smelled HORRIBLE. I had to open the windows and leave the door open for Pete's sake! thank goodness we weren't in an indoor corridor because that would have been terrible," said Rose.
"I think it was fair of me to get drunk, I mean I haven't blacked out like that since I was seventeen, but when it comes down to how...the ratio of who parties and drinks all the time I think it balances out," explained Gavin.
"Okay then in that case, let me ask you something," said Rose.
"what?" asked Gavin.
"Have you ever cleaned up my vomit?"she asked, blue eyes narrowing.
Ten seconds of silence passed through the car.
Ten.
"Uh oh," whispered Zim, smiling.
"...No I can't say I have," said Gavin.
"THERE. So you owe me big time. I'm still mad at you for that night by the way," said Rose.
"Well, you know since that night-...since that night, I know that you love me and I wasn't sure until- you know that night. Hee hee," said Gavin, laughing nervously as Rose briefly glared at him.
"Oh wow, like taking you inter her home and saving your life wasn't enough," said Tucker, snickering.
"Seriously, I love the scrap out of you- but I had to admit it was a little hard to sit there and just listen to you giggle to yourself "hee hee hee hee, what did I do? hee hee hee!" seriously, all I could think at that moment was just "what the hell did I just do? what did I just go through?" jeez. you jerk," growled Rose, her eyes narrowing again.
"That's love dude," said Tucker.
"you know what love is? Love is scrubbing puke off the floor when your stupid friend doesn't know when to stop drinking, and scrubbing puke out of his hair only to have him laugh in your face. Not even a "thank you"...You know, if I wasn't so busy taking care of you guys and smashing things I would have taken over the world. Right Zim?" laughed Rose.
Zim snorted, "I'd still be a better ruler than you."
"Whatever," snorted Rose.
Tucker suddenly tensed in the middle of the conversation. His attention turned to the window, eyes staring into the skies.
"Uhhhh, guys?" said Tucker.
"Yeah but you know I'm a superior species that-"
"GUYS!" cried Tucker, snapping his fingers.
"What?" asked Rose, worried.
That instant, there was a flash of light as the was suddenly pushed forward by some unknown force.
"HOLY SHI-"
"what the hell was that?"
"No.." whispered Zim, recognizing the sudden force...a plasma ray.
They had found him...He didn't know how, but he knew... the Tallests... Skoodge, the Irkens...They had found him.
"Every one put on your seat belts this is going to be a bumpy ride!" cried Rose, accelerating as another explosion appeared behind the car.
"What are those things!" cried Gavin.
"Irkens!" said Zim.
"Zim! stay in the car and don't you DARE shoot at that thing! Tucker call Nny! He's gone through an abduction before he can tell us how to shake these guys!" said Rose.
"OH Man they're gaining on us!" cried Tucker, starting to panic.
Zim shivered.
How did they find him? why? He was at peace! why wouldn't they just leave him alone with-
"ROSE!"
"NO!"
"ZIM!"
Smoke.
That's all he could remember at the moment was smoke.
There was a muffled scream, then a loud noise of some kind as he was suddenly tossed around.
Blinking a few times he could see what had happened.
The car had been turned upside down. Tucker and Rose were unconscious as Gavin was trying to free them and crying out their names in the process.
Zim, finally activated his PAK.
"Get out the the way," he growled using his PAK legs to slice through the car, opening it up like an ant swarm would do with a dead insect.
"Get them out of here- Run!" hissed Zim as he took off, PAK legs stabbing the ground with his anger.
They were going to pay for this. They had ruined his life and made a fool of him once. They were NOT going to do it again.
They were not going to take this earth, and ruin his new home.
The only place he had left in a world filled with enemies.
Earth.
