I believe I already explained this, Ngrey, he is mostly playing with them before the final act. I hate using this example but I will: He's a cat just playing with his food till he goes, 'Ok enough of that, now get in my mouth.' Talk about a one chapter story if I ended up just letting him destroy crap. Besides I'm really trying to play with Tenn and Skoodge also a bit more in this story. Skoodge comes in more and more later on. I'm getting use to using Dib even more especially with giving him powers. The kitty isn't done playing, Ngrey so meow meow. ;)

Zim catches breaks, Invader Zim. Well I hope he does.

Sitting there with Jack as he busied himself, Tenn kept running things through her head as Tak was busy elsewhere in the base. Besides her communicating with Tak while escaping that mob, there really wasn't any other communication in case of them being located. Tenn felt like since finding out she was pregnant that she had a bunch of malfunctioning Sir units running through her body causing mayhem. When did she become such a failure as an Invader? Feeling a small hand on her stomach area, she looked at Jack's innocent eyes.

"He's coming."

Dread filled her hearing him speak those words. "Who is coming?" She asked patiently.

Jack kept putting his hand on her and let it remain there as Tak entered. "He's coming." He repeated.

Odd look on her face, Tak sat down in front of her son. "Is daddy coming?" He shook his head. "Zim?" Shakes his head. "Psyllic?" Shakes his head again.

Tenn didn't want to ask, but did. "The father of this child?" He nodded.

Seeing her stressed, Tak reached out to try to calm her as she continued to talk to, Jack. "Is he coming here to this base?" Jack shrugged.

"Does your old base still work besides the transporters?" Tenn wondered.

"Yes, why?"

"We have been in darkness since Dib left so we need to know what the hell is going on. I won't take the Runner in case you need it, but I can take another way out if you show me a secured route." Tenn said.

Shaking her head, Tak knew they needed to know what the hell is going on, but this was still risky. "You saw what he did out there by sending a mob after you. Yeah, perhaps he wants to put a child in you, something he has already done, but still you obviously can't sense him like I can."

Standing up, Tenn shook her head at her. "There is no way you are leaving. They still want, Jack and it is obvious you still. He needs his mother and I still have a mission to do, and trust me when I say I will do this."

Narrowing her eyes, Tak growled as she lifted her son up in her arms. "Come with me then and put your disguise on now."

Gaz did have to excuse herself to use the bathroom, she wasn't an Irken after all. Cleaning herself quickly and changing, Gaz was leaving when she stopped to shake her head. "I want my brother and my husband back now."

"So odd that I didn't know about your own husband. I'm sure you did." Came Psyllic's voice behind her.

Facing him, Gaz felt something from him a long time ago, but hardly acknowledged it. "Do you think you can win?"

"I know I'll win." He replied stepping forth more.

Laughing at him, Gaz was almost tempted to use him to transport herself down there, but that was what he wanted. She could of also employed another method, but seeing as her quarters was nullified, she had to hope he would come near her again around others. "You don't know anything with whom you are dealing with."

Wishing he could touch this bold woman in front of him, Psyllic stood back instead. "Pity that in all the alternate realities, that there is only one other that we meet. A reality where you are with that horrible Irken, but I'm bit of a sap. I do end up on your side and overthrow the previous rulers with your help. Funny how I enjoyed playing music to fit my mood."

"WOW! You are boring me." Gaz yawned out mockingly. "I don't give a crap at all about that stuff since all that matters is the now. I may of not given a crap about a lot before, but now I do."

"Yes... I'm sure love does that to most." Rolling his eyes, Psyllic almost showed her an alternate reality.

"Well I can't argue that Zim is mighty powerful in bed." Seeing him pull up some sort of image, Gaz made it vanish away. "I only care about the now, Stupid." Her tone took a more decidedly evil turn, she approached him. "You have no idea who you are really dealing with, and I can't wait to see your true suffering by either mines or their hands."

"All Irkens will die. Not your nephew though, but the rest will. I promise you this." Giving her a once over, Psyllic took in a heavy breath in. "I will be coming for you very soon."

Watching him leave, Gaz mumbled out, "Dib and Zim will see to your end." As much as she wanted to cause his destruction herself, she didn't mind for once if they did it, she just hoped to be able to see it somehow.

Getting the base running was very easy under minimal power as Tenn went to communicate to the Massive. She could tell that Dib was here previously due to the last transmission sent. Seeing Gaz's image pop up, she saluted her.

Opening one of her eyes at that, Gaz told her to put her hand down. "Tenn, is Tak and Jack alright?"

"Yes they are, my Queen. I am just wondering if there is any new news happening right now?"

Gaz obviously wasn't too comfortable with the title right now, but let it slide. "Zim and Dib have been taken to Plegerin. The leader, Psyllic paid me a visit here. I'm sure we'll make him eat his words soon enough."

Smiling at that confidence, Tenn needed to ask, "Is there anything that you would like us to do from our end?"

"Stay safe. It is best to keep Tak and Jack where they are and you need to remain with them." Gaz ordered. "We know how important this is."

"I know, my Queen, and I will remain by their side. How are you holding up?"

One of her eyebrows lowered at the question before releasing an audible sigh, Gaz glanced off to the side before looking forward again. "I'm pretty tough. I know they'll come back."

Tenn wished she could share more, but knew it would most likely be overheard by the wrong party. "My Queen, I'll be in touch as soon as I can. In the meantime, even I'm confident of us winning against this. Invader Tenn out."

"Take care." Gaz said before the communication ended.

Shutting down the controls, Tenn leaned against the panel taking several breaths in and out. "I can do this. I can do this." She murmured to herself.

Turning around, she sat back against it with her eyes closed as she concentrated on those words Dib said to her when he found her worrying about having this child. They were comforting words, but the fear was in her still. Eyes still closed, Tenn couldn't help give into her fantasies over him knowing she would never act upon them. Was she drugged to sleep with Pressner or not? Did she just want to feel something from someone? In truth, all she remembered was talking to him, going to that humans place, then kissing him. She remembered wondering how it would feel if he touched her in certain ways. Tenn didn't remember how she ended up in the bedroom, she just remembered leaving the bedroom to search the place.

Deciding to fantasize again, she imagined Dib's hand brushing along her skin as she soaked in his scent. How those full lips would feel against every part of her. Breathing out, Tenn almost started to reach down to satisfy herself as the fantasy seemed to be turning real. She felt touches along her body making her lips part till she felt something press against her. Eyes fluttered open to see it was Pressner holding her. Kissing her. This time the memory wasn't so broken or hazy, it was full. Clear. She enjoyed that night.

Sickened at that thought now, Tenn shoved him away attempting to wipe her mouth as if that would help her. Cursing in Irken, Tenn wanted to attack him, but ended up staring at him.

Staring back at her, Pressner knew she wasn't thinking of him, but Tenn looked so tempting with that serene look on her face. She looked like that when they spent the night together. He loved seeing the want in her too.

Tenn was so ill all of a sudden at the thought of who the father was making her turn her face away from him as tears fell down her face. A murderer, a rapist, and really an all around bad guy. Worse then what they can call her own race.

Pressner wanted to reach out to touch her, but stayed there as he watched her display. He heard her mumble something under her breath. "Tenn?"

"Go away." She begged. "You've done enough."

His voice soft. Earnest. Pressner said something of complete honesty. "I know I have." Taking a step forward, he continued. "I've been ignoring his calls for the past few days. I've never done that before." Taking her hand quickly, he brought her to him. "I never drugged you to sleep with me." Hating how she turned her face away from him, Pressner pulled her against him. "Yes I brought you out to manipulate you and to bring Dib's guard down, but instead I wanted you for myself."

"Let. Me. Go." Getting pressed against the panel, she felt his lips against her neck. "No! Let go of me. Leave me be!" She demanded.

He led his kissing up to her chin as he ran his hands up the sides of her body. She started talking in her own language prompting him to reach for the hem of her shirt to lift it up. Pressner wanted this female fully. Kissing her lips, he was surprised she returned his kiss making him touch those very tiny breasts of her. Hearing her moan, Pressner pressed his groin into her loving how her hands went to his waist.

Tenn couldn't believe she was doing this as he touched her chest. What was wrong with her? This man is nothing but evil. Feeling as his hands left her breasts, she almost whimpered out in protest as he moved to her pants to slide them off. Feeling herself lifted up and her pants being removed, she still kissed him through all of that.

Afraid of losing her, Pressner continued to kiss her as he decided to lift her knowing he spotted a couch. Bringing her over, he placed her down gently as his each press of his lips became more hungry for her. Moving his hand up her leg, he moved it around reaching her inner thigh to reach that junction letting his finger tease her. This time he heard something from Tenn as he reached in.

Sharp intake of breath feeling his finger down there. Tenn moaned out into his mouth. She hated herself for being turned on as she started to struggle against him. "No." Her voice so soft, but demanding.

Still touching her down there, Pressner didn't want to let her go. "I want to be with you." Placing another finger in her, he watched how her face contorted with ecstasy. "Be with me, Tenn."

"You just want to use me." She tried to move away from him, but the way he continued moving in and out of her, Tenn moaned again. "I hate you."

"I don't hate you and I don't want to use you." Moving down to kiss her stomach, he felt her jerk at that, but keeping her steady with his other hand, he continued kissing her and touching her till he lifted his head to look up at her. "You have my child in you." Pressner was in awe at the power he felt so close up. It was one of his kin. It was him.

Fear gripped her again as she ended up punching him. Moving away quickly, Tenn ran to her pants to put them on before punching him again as he went to stop her. Shaking her head at him, Tenn ran again to find her pathway blocked.

"Tenn, please. Don't run."

Kicking him in the groin, Tenn turned to run to the nearest thing she could find which was the transporter as it shortly activated as soon as she stepped in bringing her up to the Massive. Getting out, she nearly collapsed finding the minimal crew in that area staring at her in confusion. "Seriously? Your confused by this?" Angry, she went to the bridge to report to Gaz.

Gaz, who was speaking to another crew member turned her head to see an almost bedraggled Tenn coming in to approach her. Excusing herself, she went up to her. "What happened?"

"Pressner." Sparing a look at Gir who smiled up at her, Tenn knew she disappointed the odd robot when she didn't smile back. "After we talked he..." She trailed off. "He touched my stomach area and he knows I'm having his..." She couldn't finish the sentence off.

Placing her hand down there, Gaz felt it. The baby will be indeed powerful. Mouth forming a thin line, Gaz really wished Dib was here to say the correct words to her when she felt at a loss all of a sudden. She just knew that Tenn will be even more wanted then before because of this life inside of her.

"Tak doesn't know I'm here. He blocked me off from leaving so I had no choice, but to duck into the transporter."

Still at a loss for words right now, Gaz simply gazed at her. "Dib is the one better at speaking then I am. While I'm harsh, he's far more nicer about things." Knowing she can feel Zim still, Gaz was curious if she can communicate to him. Damn planet down there had to awaken crap inside of her, she thought. "All right everyone! I would like to have your attention right now!" Stepping away from Tenn, she addressed the bridge. "I need not to be disturbed unless it is an emergency. I'm gonna try to communicate with Zim some other way!" Looks to Gir. "This does include you."

"OK Gazzy!" Gir waved at her.

"This'll be a first for me." Gaz grumbled to Tenn before walking over to her seat.

Skoodge watched as their Queen sat down to close her eyes. He really should be use to these things by now. Zim has always done strange things growing up. When will he ever stop questioning everything around him?
