A/N: Another short chapter, but one I had immense fun writing. Also, I'm not a lawyer, so I don't know much about the legal system and such, so don't be too harsh on me.
The two of them spent about two hours at the beach talking and enjoying the pleasant atmosphere before packing up and leaving, the other women all having done so earlier. As they left for their next destination, Mandy, now dressed in a simple outfit that resembled the one she wore as a child, and Zim continued to speak to each other in an attempt to get to know each other. They talked about their lives, what they did growing up, and other such things. One topic in particular had everyone's attention when Gaz asked about Grim.
"The Underworld is trying to get you to release Grim from the contract you made years ago?" Haiku asked.
"That's right. It's why I haven't had access to his powers in a long time." Mandy admitted in frustration.
"How'd that happen?" Lily asked.
"Simple. They claim that I cheated against Grim in the limbo contest by having Mr. Snuggles attack him." Mandy answered.
"Mr. Snuggles?" Lucy asked.
"Billy's really old and sick pet hamster at the time." Mandy elaborated. "And it's all a bunch of lies. I didn't order him to attack. I merely said 'kiss kiss' to him."
"But didn't you once tell me that it made the hamster attack?" Gaz asked.
"Yes, but I said that I saw Mr. Snuggles attack Billy when he said it. I said it myself while Grim was taking his turn, but Mr. Snuggles decided to attack Grim. Since I didn't specifically give the order to attack Grim, the contest was still fair." Mandy further explained.
"Sounds...legit?" Lynn said in confusion. Legal junk like this flew over her head, so she wasn't really following.
"If that's the truth, then why are you upset? Shouldn't the reaper be here then?" Lucy asked.
"After closing statements were made, the judge ordered the jury to convene to vote." Mandy answered.
"Aaaand the vote was...?" Fink asked.
"They haven't reached a decision since the trial began...ten years ago!" Mandy said, hissing the last part out through grit teeth.
"Ten years?!" Marie yelled as she and most of them stared in shock. "Isn't that a little long?"
"Actually, the longest case in history was actually seven years." Lily said before noticing the looks others were giving her. "What? When you grow up bunking with a brainiac, you learn things."
"Well it shouldn't have even gone on for so long in the first place. They all know that I'm right and that they can't sue me." Mandy answered before sighing. "But Grim needed to do his job of reaping souls for those whose time had come, so they've been dragging their feet. And while they're doing so, they've got Grim doing his job while we the trial is still open."
"And when's the trial going to end?" May asked.
"I overheard one of them hoping that it'd end after my time came." Mandy grumbled while the others looked nervously at each other.
"I'm sorry I asked." Gaz muttered before perking up a little. "Let's move past that. You still have about four hours before your dinner date with Zim."
"Which means you have four more hours to deal with the dumbass trying to follow us." Tal groaned as she brought up a screen of her rear view, showing Irwin riding after them on a bicycle.
"COME BACK, MY LOVE!" Irwin called before hitting a pothole and launching himself into someone's backyard.
RUFF RUFF RUFF!
GRRRR!
"AHHHH! OW! LET GO OF ME LEG! YEOWCH! OW!"
A backyard with a dozen various 'BEWARE OF DOGS' sign all over the fence surrounding it.
"Please tell me you recorded that." Fink said with a grin while most of the others laughed.
"Recorded and saved to file." Tal chuckled.
"I'm impressed by how far he flew." Tenn muttered with a smirk before turning to Zim and Mandy. "So, where you two heading next?"
"The movies. Don't know if there's anything good playing, but it's a date spot that's good for killing time." Mandy stated.
"You call in another favor?" Zim asked.
"Yes, but only for one movie for everyone here. Food and drink aren't included." Mandy said before looking at Zim, along with everyone else. Zim looked at them all with increasing speed before deadpanning.
"Fine. I'll buy." Zim groaned, earning a few 'YAYS' from some of them.
"Hmph. One of the few things about this dumb planet I can actually enjoy." Tak mused.
"Earth movies?" Tenn asked.
"Earth snacks." Tak corrected.
"YAAAAAY!" Gir cheered as they all prepared to hit the theater.
"Hey." Mandy whispered to Gaz as she and her walked away from the group. "Before we left the beach, I saw you talking to Mindy. What were you two talking about?"
"Long and short of it? We might be leaving Endsville with two women in the harem." Gaz answered. Mandy's eyes widened before she groaned.
"Of course." she muttered while Gaz laughed.
After making sure Irwin hadn't caught up yet, the group arrived at the movies. People were boggling at the sight before their jaws dropped when Zim and Mandy exited. Some then needed to get their jaws reattached when they saw all the other women file out, followed by Gir dressed as a kid and Minimoose as a toy moose lying on top of Shannon's head. They all stopped and looked at the movies playing and the times they would play.
"'Exploding Penguins V: The Antarcticking?'" Fink read off. "What kind of movie is that?"
"Don't know, but it sounds stupid." Lynn grumbled before looking at the movie under the first one. "How about a zombie movie? 'Land of the Undead Bikers?'"
"Pass. Seen one zombie movie, you've see them all." Lee scoffed as she looked at the other movies playing.
"I like zombie movies." Haiku said in a dull tone.
"Same here." Lucy added.
"And besides, who said we all had to go to the same movie?" Susie asked. That made them blink before realizing she was right.
"Good point." Marie finally said. With that in mind, the group all decided what they'd see before travelling in tiny groups towards the ticket counter.
"Uh...welcome to Endsville Theater?" the geeky teen at the ticket counter said with a huge blush as he looked at the group of beautiful women before him.
"Hi there. We're going to need a few tickets for...each movie." Gaz said with a smile.
"...Welcome to Endsville Theater?" the teen repeated, his face frozen in the same expression.
"Didn't he already say that?" Tenn asked.
"Hey buddy. Tickets!" Fink said with a snap of her fingers.
"...Welcome to Endsville Theater?" the geek repeated a third time.
"Somebody nudge him. His needle's skipping." Lily joked before another employee approached them.
"Why don't you go clean the Men's room, Ted? I'll handle this." the man said in a calm voice as he gently pushed the teen towards the bathrooms.
"...Welcome to Endsville Theater?" the geek repeated as he walked towards the Men's room, leaving the man to sigh before turning towards the group.
"Sorry about that. Need tickets?" the man asked with a straight face despite his own blush growing.
"Yes. Now." Mandy said in irritation, making the man gulp when he looked at her.
"O-Of course! We were told you were coming, Mandy!" the man said as he trembled before her. "For which movie!"
"They'll tell you." she said while gesturing to the group before grabbing Zim's hand. "My boyfriend and I want tickets for 'Runaway Romantics.'"
The man balked at her, wondering if he heard that choice coming out of Mandy, a woman who refused all forms of love and such. He then looked down at Zim, then at Mandy, then back and forth for a moment.
"Now, you idiot!" Mandy snapped, making him jump and push the right button.
"Right!" he yelped before taking the tickets and handing it to them. "Have a nice movie!" he said with a smile as sweat poured down his forehead.
"A little much, don't you think?" Zim asked as they headed for the concession stand.
"I'd like to find a seat before Irwin finds us. After all, that limo, Tal, is too big to not go unnoticed by anyone...except Billy." Mandy tacked on.
"Fair. Still, we need to wait for a moment so everyone can get pick what food they want." Zim said before reeling at the prices. "I hope they're not too hungry."
After buying food for themselves and everyone else, Zim and Mandy went to their proper theater. The room was almost empty, save for a few couples who had come to watch the movie.
"Good. No one will pay attention." Mandy said after looking around the room before looking down at Zim, who was somehow holding their food and drinks in one hand while staring at the food bill in his other hand. "You coming?"
"Just...give me a moment?" Zim said as he mumbled to himself. "I could've fed a family of eight for a month with all that cash I just spent."
"Yeah. That's why I usually sneak my own food in." Mandy said as she looked at the number before leading Zim to the back row. "Now come on. We've got a movie to watch."
"We're actually going to watch this thing?" Zim asked as he remembered the poster for the movie when they passed it earlier. "From what I saw, it feels like it was made by a lovestruck loser who threw up all the mushy stuff that makes up Valentine's Day and added glitter and fuzzy animals."
"An accurate summation, but we don't have a choice." Mandy said as she sat down. "People saw us come in here, so rumors will spread about us. And when they do, it'll eventually reach Irwin's ears."
"I think it already reached his eyes." Zim said as he gestured towards the front. Mandy looked for a moment before glaring at Irwin, who was kneeling in his chair and looking at the two over the top of the seat.
"Perfect." Mandy said in sarcasm while Zim placed the food next to her seat and turned to sit in his own seat, only to find himself being picked up and placed on her lap.
"Huh?" he muttered in confusion before his lower half sunk between her thighs, trapping him between her legs. "You're really going to have me sit here for the whole two and a half hours?" he asked before she pulled him back, letting his head rest between her tits.
"Just shut up and enjoy it." she huffed before the lights dimmed, which helped to block out Irwin's twitching glare. The two sat in silence as the previews began to play, showing movies and ads for the future-
bzzzzz! bzzzzz! bzzzzz!
-before they both jumped as they felt a buzzing sensation hit them. Gaz blushed at the feeling before Zim reached into his back pocket and pulled out his vibrating phone and answered.
"Hello?" he whispered. "Yeah, we just got our seats...no it's the previews."
"HEY!" Irwin bellowed. "NO PHONE CALLS IN THE THEATER!"
"SHH!" the other couples shushed him.
"USHER!" Irwin called, making a man in an usher's outfit quickly zip next to him. "THAT GUY'S USING HIS PHONE! MAKE HIM PUT IT AWAY!"
"Is that so?" the usher said as he glanced at the two before approaching them. "Sir, please be mindful to the other customers and kindly put your phone away."
"You heard him. Hang up and don't answer it again." Mandy ordered with a glare. Zim just looked at her before turning away.
"Listen, I gotta hang up before they throw us out, so I'll call...you..." Zim trailed off before suddenly smiling. "Actually, do me a small favor, would you?" he asked before quietly whispering something into the phone. He then pushed a few buttons before returning it to his back pocket. He then readjusted himself before scootching back as far as he could between her legs and relaxed while Mandy groaned. She had a feeling he was enjoying this too much, but allowed it for the sake of getting Irwin off her back. The two sat in silence once again as the previews played-
BZZZZZ! BZZZZZ! BZZZZZ!
Mandy's eyes shot wide and she nearly yelped when Zim's phone suddenly went off, the vibration somehow strong enough that it almost felt like it was vibrating the whole seat, her thighs visibly jiggling from the source. A source that was radiating from Zim's back pocket. A back pocket that was now placed up against a certain private, and sensitive, part of her body.
"Zim! Turn your phone off!" she hissed in a quiet voice, her blush growing with each time it buzzed.
"Sorry Mandy, but I can't answer it again. The ushers might throw us out." he answered with a smile before he relaxed. Mandy looked ready to bite his head off before noticing the glint of Irwin's glasses as he stared at them. She ground her teeth together before releasing a harsh breath and sat there.
'Just bear with it. The call will end soon.' she thought.
-30 minutes later-
BZZZZZ!
'Why?'
BZZZZZ!
'Why?!'
BZZZZZ!
'WHY WON'T THEY HANG UP ALREADY?!' Mandy roared in her head as Zim's phone continued to buzz, the caller having not hung up yet. Each time it went off sent a rippling sensation through her body, causing her to squirm in her seat and rub her thighs together, which was futile with Zim still between them.
The worst part, however, was from the fact that she couldn't do anything about it while Irwin was watching. For the past thirty minutes he kept his gaze on them, making it impossible for her or Zim to stop the phone.
Zim, for his part, merely smiled as he relaxed against her vibrating body, his head snuggled between her breasts and his arms relaxing on her thighs like their were armrests.
'This is nice. Kind of like...a massage chair.' he thought before readjusted himself again, making his butt rub up against Mandy.
Mandy bit her lip as she felt her burning lower lips being rubbed by Zim's ass and phone. Her body felt hot and sweat was beginning to show on her body.
'Better this and being with Irwin! Better this than being with Irwin!' she mentally repeated to herself, doing her best to ignore the ever growing bubble deep in the pit of her person. She sat there and raked her fingernails against the armrests of her seat while her toes curled inside her shoes. She could feel her mind starting to get a little hazy, her breathing becoming a little heavy, and her heart pounding inside her chest. She had no idea how much longer she could hold on, the seconds feeling like days as her nether regions continued to be mercilessly shaken by the vibrations off-
"Hello?"
Mandy's eyes shot open at the sudden sound of Zim's voice, her body tensing as she felt herself about to lose it. She blinked a few times to see the lights were on and the people, aside from Irwin, were all leaving their seats. She then looked down to see Zim was talking on his phone, which meant...
She sagged in her chair as her everything finally registered the fact that Zim's phone was no longer vibrating against her person.
"Yeah, the movie was boring. Luckily, I had something else to entertain me." he said with a grin. A grin that stayed despite the shadow looming over him. He looked up to see Mandy standing over him, fire and death burning in her eyes as the pink in her cheeks turned red and spread all over her body.
"I'll call you back." was all Zim said before his world became pain.
Gaz hung up her phone as she waited with the others inside Tal.
"Are they coming or what?" May asked.
"He said he'd call back." Gaz replied before looking down at her phone. "I still want to know why he asked me to call back and not hang up for anything earlier."
A/N: I really would like suggestions and reviews that are more than just one word or the same thing repeated each time. Also, I added a reject list for characters and shows I won't add for personal reasons.
