Disclaimers: I do not own Invader Zim

Author's Note's: Chapter 3 here we go, please read and review.

(7 years ago)

"This is stupid!" Tak screamed at the top of her lungs.

"Come on you've got to sale it!" Gaz yelled, trying not to laugh at the Irken female's current attire.

At the moment Tak was dressed in a large duck mascot suit claiming to be the Earth's "Rarest Specimen the Duck Girl." The point was to drawl those two stupid aliens out to capture them, so they could steal their ship.

"How do you even know they're still on this rock." Tak complained. The human girl was currently hiding in the tree above her, laughing at her as she made quacking sounds.

"They swore they wouldn't leave Earth until they had at least one specimen for their stupid collection." Gaz explained. "At least that's what they told Dib."

"And you're sure they haven't yet?" Tak asked.

"They're stupid." Gaz said. "A legless, armless, and blind idiot could escape them."

"This is so stupid!" Tak screamed again. "I am a rare Duck beast Girl! Thousands should want me!"

Gaz giggled, Tak seemed to be selling this thing a bit too hard now, but she knew the Irken female was just tired of looking ridiculous.

"Maybe you should be one instead." Tak suggested. "I have cloaking gear, I could slip into the Ship while they're busy capturing you."

It was a thought, and Gaz was tempted to agree. Sure, dressing up like that would be a pain, but if she ever wanted to prove to her brother that she wasn't a no-good gaming obsessed dead beat then she had to do this. "Maybe." Gaz said out loud, just as the wind began to pick up.

"Gaz what's happening?" Tak asked as the wind flew dead leaves all around them.

"I don't…" Gaz stopped as a large duck came floating down from the sky above them. She smiled. "Duck girl our audience has finally arrived." She said jumping from the tree just as the ship's tractor beam began to lift Tak up in the air.

"Seriously this is how they disguise their vessel?" Tak scoffed. "Maybe they are stupid."

"Wait!" Gaz cried out. "You can't steal Duck girl! We love her!" She jumps up and grabs Tak's waste only to get pulled up with her.

"What are you doing?" Tak screamed.

"What does it look like?" Gaz asked. "I'm hitching a ride."

"This was your plan?" Tak couldn't believe it. "Are you mental?"

"I'm still new to the whole aliens thing okay." Gaz admitted.

"I don't know whose worse." Tak cried. "them are you!"

"I got them, here didn't I?" Gaz argued.

"I guess stupid people do attract other stupids." Tak countered.

"Other stupids?" Gaz asked. "That's not even a word. Are you arguing with me just to do so?" She shook her head. "You are aren't you! Is that an Irken thing? Do you all just argue for the sake of arguing!"

"Don't speak as if you know me!" Tak yelled. They were almost there, Tak could see the opening of the tractor beam which no doubt would feed them straight into the ship.

"Nailed it." Gaz teased.

Tak gave her a weird look, the human girl was a strange one. Not once had she acted like this around the other kids at school. Yes, Dib had pointed his sister unit out to Tak when they first talked in the school playground. As a self-declared enemy of Zim's Tak needed to evaluate just how much of a threat the boy was, if any.

It was true, Gaz never acted this way around anyone, just crammed her face in her game, but for whatever reason Tak seemed to bring this side out of her. She couldn't explain it, but the more time she spent with the female, the more intrigued she became.

Tak was having a similar problem. Gaz seemed to be more tolerable then the rest of these Earth Monkey's. And staying here a little longer just to argue with her sounded a lot better than returning to Janitory drone duty on Planet Dirt.

"Here we go." Gaz said as they reached the opening. The female was suddenly very serious now, and Tak found that she found her serious look quite powerful.

"I hope you're right about this." Tak admitted.

Gaz smiled. "Uncertainty doesn't suit you." She said.

Her words threw Tak at a curve, but they weren't untrue. Tak was unsure, and it was very unlike her.

"Do you even want to leave?" Gaz asked.

Of course, she wanted to leave…didn't she? Only hours ago, she was declaring her hatred for this rock, so what had changed? Tak was about to retort when they arrived within the ship before the…Abductors?

That's what Gaz called them, the two idiots never gave their names or told them what race they were.

Tak took in their almost roach like appearance and found that she too was at a lost. However, Gaz had given them names based off their eye colors. Blue, and Green.

"Look I told you it was real." Blue said with a high shrill.

"Yes, we finally have one!" Green said happily. "A rare Duck beast girl, and a…" He stopped looking Gaz over. "And what are you?"

"Seriously?" Tak couldn't believe it, were they really so stupid they didn't know a human when they saw one. "Exactly how long have you been on this planet.

"I'm Gaz." Gaz said. "And I…worship the rare Duck beast girl." She bows dramatically before Tak. "Oh, great and rare Duck beast girl, please don't leave me."

"You're begging pleases me." Tak said.

"And pleasing you is good?" Blue asked.

"Very." Gaz answered. "In fact, she blow up if she's displeased."

"I will?" Tak asked fearfully. "Well now she tells me."

"Blow up!" Green cried. "This will never do! How do we keep her in the collection if she blows up?"

"I Know!" Blue said pulling out some duct tape. "We'll fuse them, then the Gaz can make her happy all the time."

"You have got to be kidding me!" Tak shouted.

Gaz couldn't help but laugh. "Isn't this great oh rare Duck beast girl, we get to be together forever." She said mockingly.

"Oh joy!" Tak said sarcastically.

"Then it's settled." Blue said taping the two females together. "All done."

"But the juice!" Green yelled. "You promise this time we'd fuse them with juice."

"I like juice." Gaz admitted.

"Fine!" Blue yelled and grabbed a juice box before taping it to Gaz. "Now to the containment cell!"

"Oh boy a cell just for us." Gaz said through laughter. "I hope it's to your liking oh great rare Duck beast girl."

"As long as I have the best view." Tak said, trying to stick to the stupid script her and Gaz had planned.

"View?" Green asked.

"Yes, I must see the…uh ship's controls at all times." Tak said. "Or I'll… explode!" She screamed loudly.

"No please don't!" Gaz cried. "I can't live without you rare Duck beast girl."

"Well I guess it can stay in here." Blue said as a containment cell was feed into the room through a tube.

"Now get into your cell!" Green demanded.

"That thing!" Gaz shouted.

"How dare you!" Tak shouted.

"Why what's wrong with it?" Blue asked as the door opened, he inched towards it.

"Why what's wrong with it?" Tak repeated as if offended. "You'd think they'd know."

"Oh, please rare Duck beast girl." Gaz cried. "No one knows you as I do."

"Fine I'll over look this insult." Tak said.

"Insult?" Green asked. "Oh no."

"Please tell us how to fix it." Blue said. "Well make it however you want."

"Well…" Tak began.

(Several Minutes Later)

"There!" Both Blue and Green breathed heavily as they shoved the last item into the tube-shaped cell. "Is that all?"

"Well." Tak looked to Gaz expectantly.

"My rare Duck beast girl over lord loves tea parties." Gaz said. "So, we just need to make sure you can fit in there with us so we can invite you!"

"Tea Party!" Blue exclaimed. "That sounds fun!"

"I call the pink bean bag." Green yelled shoving Blue aside to get in.

"No Me!" Blue yelled pushing back.

Tak watched in disbelief as the two shoved themselves into the cell.

"Well it's a tight squeeze, but we have a bigger one." Green assured her.

"No this will do." Tak said pressing a button on the cell which closed them in. "In fact, this will do nicely."

"I told you they were idiots." Gaz said.

"You weren't kidding." Tak laughed.

"Hey, you let up out of here!" Blue demanded.

"Gladly!" Tak mused. "Gaz will you do the honors?" She asked gesturing to the purge button located on the ship's controls.

"Why yes, oh rare Duck beast girl." Gaz said mockingly. "It would be my honor to rid your ship of vermin who wish to lock you away."

"Vermin?" Green shouted.

"Your ship?" Blue added, just as Gaz pressed the button sending them into the depths of space.

"Yes, My ship!" Tak laughed full heartedly.

Gaz however looked out the nearest window with a look of worry on her face. "Uh Tak." She pointed at the vastness of space.

"What?" Tak looked outside. "Did the idiots launch without us knowing?"

"I guess so." Gaz said.

Tak looked over the controls "No it looks like we're being pulled towards something."

"Like what?" Gaz asked, only to get her answer in the form of a much larger ship.

"A Mancar mothership." Tak said.

"What is a Mancar." Gaz asked.

"Not whatever those idiots were." Tak confirmed. "They are a very powerful race of hunters, we Irkens have treaty with them. We don't invade their territories, ad they don't hunt us for sport."

"You don't think those two idiots stole this ship from them, do you?" Gaz asked fearfully now. This was turning out to be a bigger adventure then she had bargained for.

"No way." Tak said. "Those two idiots must have done it unintentionally, or the Mancar was already dead."

"Can you break from their hold." Gaz asked hopefully.

"No, the controls are locked." Tak told her. "We're had."

"Perfect." Gaz groaned.

"Scared?" Tak mused. "Fear doesn't suit you."

Gaz smiled and opened the juice bottle that had been "Fused" to the earlier. "What a mess we've gotten ourselves into hu Duck beast girl?"

Tak couldn't help but nod her agreement. They had done more than bitten off more than they could chew. The Mancar's were a known and feared race of hunters who too trophy's of their prey and wear them like jewelry. "I've been in worse."

It was a lie and they both knew it.

"If we get out of this, I'm killing Dib." Gaz said. Yes, if Dib had been his usually obsessed-self it would be him here and not her.

"If we get out of this I'll help." Tak promised.

Gaz found a smile slipping on her face at those words, and as they grew closer towards the Mothership, she decided to retract her previous claim.

She was glad Dib was busy being stupid, because at the very moment she had felt more thrill than any game could have ever given her. She looked to Tak, and her smile grew.

Thrill, that's why she escaped to her Game Slave when ever she could. Reality was boring, and stupid. All it did was made her feel numb. And why wouldn't it? Her father was rarely home, and her brother was off chasing aliens and being a nuisance. In short reality sucked and she wanted any part of it.

Until now.

This Irken Female made her feel more alive than anything had ever done for her.

And as the Mothership swallowed them whole Gaz realized that as crazy as it seems she didn't want to be anywhere but here in this very moment with this amazing being beside her.

"Well I hope your next plan is better than your last one." Tak said. "Cause otherwise…"

"Maybe you should come up with this one." Gaz admitted.

Tak smiled as she pulled off her stupid duck suit. "Gladly." She said and then added.

"This is what we're going to do."
