Irk, the homeworld of the Irken Race and capital planet of their empire, an empire of hedonism that serves only the rulers instead of the people and those they\u2019ve conquered. Right now, though, there was trouble in the empire and their ruler, the Almighty Tallest Zim, was going through reports to try and figure out why the empire was shrinking! His ally, the Tallest Consort, the human known as Gaz Membrane, stormed into his office. \u201cZim, you have GOT to figure this crap out!\u201d she snarled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI\u2019m aware of Videogamia being destroyed,\u201d replied Zim. \u201cWe\u2019re still looking for a pattern.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe need MORE than a pattern! We need new planets! Zim, the empire is shrinking by the day!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYou think I don\u2019t know that?!\u201d snapped Zim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDid you also know that there\u2019s an alien vessel in geostationary orbit?!\u201d demanded Gaz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHas it been identified?\u201d asked Zim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe translators are saying it\u2019s called the Martian Maggot<\/em>,\u201d replied Gaz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cA Martian ship?\u201d Zim then stood up. \u201cLet them land. I\u2019m expecting them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cZim?\u201d asked Gaz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cQueen Tyr\u2019ahnee Mirkin,\u201d explained Zim, \u201chas also reported that her empire is shrinking, so we\u2019re entering into a mutual defense compact.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe don\u2019t need help from outsi-!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThis coming from the HUMAN, need I remind you?\u201d interrupted Zim. Gaz zipped it. \u201cCome on. We must greet them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Tyr\u2019ahnee and her faithful commander, Marvin, stepped off the ship once Zim and Gaz arrived. \u201cWelcome, Queen Tyr\u2019ahnee,\u201d greeted Zim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cSo, this is the center of the Irken Empire,\u201d remarked Tyr\u2019ahnee. \u201cIs that a human by your side?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThis is the Tallest Consort, Gaz Membrane,\u201d replied Zim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cDefinitely a human name,\u201d said Tyr\u2019ahnee. \u201cNow, perhaps we should begin discussions on what could cause our empires to shrink.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cIndeed,\u201d agreed Zim. \u201cYour commander will need to understand the layout of the empire as it stands, of course.\u201d He turned to an Irken. \u201cYou! Give the Martian Queen\u2019s commander full access.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAt once, my Tallest,\u201d replied the Irken. He turned to Marvin. \u201cThis way, please.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cVery touching,\u201d replied Marvin as he followed the Irken. Just then, another Irken, slightly shorter than the one leading Marvin, approached Zim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cMy Tallest, I have news!\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cNot now, Invader Sty!\u201d hissed Zim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cBut it concerns unauthorized life-forms on Irk-!\u201d Zim grabbed the shorter Irken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cNot! In front! Of the Martians!\u201d he hissed. \u201cDeal with the problem!\u201d He then tossed the Irken aside. The Irken picked herself up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cA-As you command, My Tallest,\u201d she said. She then headed off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026Perhaps a robot force could quell any dissent, once this affair is over,\u201d offered Tyr\u2019ahnee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThat\u2026actually sounds like a good idea,\u201d remarked Zim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Irken, Invader Sty, approached the troops under her command. \u201cWe\u2019re dealing with the intruders ourselves,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cBut Ma\u2019am-!\u201d protested one of her troops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOrders from Zim,\u201d she said. \u201cNothing we can do. Arm weapons.\u201d The Irkens obeyed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWhat was that?!\u201d yelped a voice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cIt\u2026sounds like those firearms I saw on Kamino,\u201d said another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cStay behind me, you two!\u201d finished a third.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cLink, that shield-!\u201d The second speaker couldn\u2019t finish as a man in a green tunic and pointed hat with pointy ears, a sword, and a shield rounded the corner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cStun blasts only! FIRE!\u201d ordered Sty. The man raised his shield, but the weapons fire knocked it off his arm and another shot hit him in the chest, stunning him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cLINK!\u201d called the second speaker. This one was a woman with pointy ears like the man and wore a blue dress. The last person, the first speaker, was a woman with blood-red hair in a pink dress. The two women were hit with the Irkens\u2019 stun weapons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cNow what?\u201d asked an Irken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cTake them to the cells,\u201d ordered Sty. \u201cThe Almighty Tallest will deal with them later.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The red-head was the first to wake up. \u201cOof!\u201d she groaned. \u201cWhat was that shark\u2019s name?!\u201d Her vision cleared to see the two pointy-eared people lying unconscious next to her. \u201cOh my fins!\u201d she yelped. She then lightly slapped the cheek of the woman. \u201cHey, are you all right?!\u201d The woman groaned and opened her eyes. She looked up\u2026then her memory slowly came back to her!<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026Another chronal surge!\u201d she said. \u201cAnd this time, Link was-! LINK!\u201d She sat up and rushed to the man in the green tunic. \u201cLink, are you all right?!\u201d The man\u2026snored. \u201c\u2026Of course you\u2019d take a nap,\u201d sighed the pointy-eared woman. She then seized the man\u2019s ear. \u201cGET UP, LINK!\u201d she shouted, startling the man awake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cYOW! HEY! EASY!\u201d protested the man. \u201cSheesh, my ears are ringing, Princess!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cLink, we need to get out of here!\u201d insisted the woman. \u201cWe-!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWhere IS here?\u201d asked the red-head. \u201cAnd who ARE you two? Are you elves?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026Why does everyone ask that?\u201d sighed the man. \u201cNo, we\u2019re Hylians from the Kingdom of Hyrule. I\u2019m Link, the Hero of Hyrule.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAnd I\u2019m Zelda, Hyrule\u2019s Princess,\u201d introduced the woman.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAnother Princess?!\u201d gasped the red-head. \u201cNice to meet you! I\u2019m Ariel, Princess of Atlantica!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cA pleasure to meet you, Princess Ariel,\u201d greeted Zelda. \u201cNow, were you just minding your own business at home when an energy wave suddenly washed over you and pulled you through a vortex until you found yourself here with us?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026Y-Yes, that\u2019s exactly what happened,\u201d said Ariel. \u201cBut\u2026how did you-?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cA friend called the Doctor called it a Chronal Surge,\u201d explained Zelda. \u201cThat energy wave takes you out of your usual point in space and time and plops you somewhere and somewhen else. I went through that once before and ended up on Kamino during the Clone Wars.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026You went to the Star Wars<\/em> galaxy?\u201d asked Ariel. \u201cI think Disney\u2019s lawyers would have something to say about tha\u2026anyone else hear that?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cHey, isn\u2019t that the-?\u201d asked Link. A blue box then appeared in the hall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThe TARDIS!\u201d confirmed Zelda. \u201cExcellent! The Doctor\u2019s still on the case!\u201d Speaking of whom, the Doctor stepped out with Tysar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAll right, the TARDIS said those Chronal Surges brought their victims here, so-.\u201d The Doctor then looked into the cell to see Zelda, Link, and Ariel. \u201c\u2026Well, that makes the job easier.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cHey, I remember you!\u201d gasped Ariel. \u201cYou hosted that impromptu Whose Line is it Anyway<\/em> show in the Magic Kingdom!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThat I did!\u201d replied the Doctor. She then saw Zelda and Link. \u201cZelda! Link! Hello again!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026Lady, I don\u2019t remember seeing you before,\u201d replied Link.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cNo, no, Link, that\u2019s the Doctor that helped me get back from Kamino!\u201d explained Zelda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cHang on, THAT\u2019S the Doctor?!\u201d yelped Link.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cYou snogged Zelda after she became the last segment of the Key to Time, yes?\u201d quizzed the Doctor. \u201cRight in my TARDIS after she came back and she mentioned an outfit you have? A cute one?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cMy Gerudo Vai outfit, yeah!\u201d replied Link. \u201cIt IS you! But how-?!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cNo time to explain regenerations,\u201d interrupted the Doctor as she pulled out the Sonic Screwdriver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cYou\u2019re in the wrong place at the wrong time, to put it lightly,\u201d explained Tysar as the Doctor worked on the cell doors. \u201cThis world\u2026is about to die. So are its people.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWhat?!\u201d asked Zelda. By then, the door was unlocked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThis is the Irken Homeworld,\u201d explained the Doctor, \u201cthe capital of those little green men you doubtlessly saw when you were thrown in there, and around this time, a horrible force kills the entire Irken Empire, all but one, Zim, the current leader.\u201d Everyone stepped out of the cell and Link drew the Master Sword.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWell, his people treated us roughly,\u201d he said, \u201cbut that\u2019s no excuse.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cPardon?\u201d asked the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cLink\u2019s right,\u201d agreed Zelda. \u201cWe can\u2019t let innocents suffer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cThen let\u2019s get them the help they need and-!\u201d cheered Ariel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWhat ARE you talking about?\u2019 asked the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026Th\u2026The evacuation,\u201d replied Ariel. \u201cWe have to save those people! Make it so that there\u2019s no genocide!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cExcept we CAN\u2019T do that!\u201d urged the Doctor as she turned to the TARDIS. \u201cCome on! Into the TARDIS, all of you!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cNow wait a minute!\u201d argued Link. \u201cWhat in Hylia\u2019s name are you trying to pull here?!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cDoctor, we HAVE to help the Irkens!\u201d pleaded Zelda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cNot this time!\u201d replied the Doctor. \u201cLink, Ariel, Zelda, I\u2019m sorry, but the Irken Genocide is a fixed point in time! What happens, happens! There is NO stopping it!\u201d The Doctor turned back to the TARDIS again, but was yanked back by Ariel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cSays who?!\u201d she demanded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cSays me!\u201d retorted the Doctor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWhat, and you\u2019re in charge?!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cTARDIS, Time Lord, YEAH!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAriel, Mermaid turned human, NO!\u201d That\u2019s TWO red-heads the Doctor had that argument with. \u201cI don\u2019t need your permission! I\u2019ll tell the Irkens myself!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cYou try it, they\u2019ll just dismiss you out of hand and vaporize you for telling primitive lies!\u201d retorted the Doctor. \u201cNow come on! TARDIS! We\u2019re getting out of here!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI\u2019ve got something to say about that, Time Girl!\u201d snarled Link.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cOh, I bet you do!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cGUYS!\u201d shouted Tysar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWHAT?!\u201d asked everyone. Then they saw the Irkens and Marvin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201c\u2026Martians?!\u201d gasped the Doctor. \u201c\u2026Damn, now I NEED to stay on Irk!\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Irk, the homeworld of the Irken Race and capital planet of their empire, an empire of hedonism that serves only the rulers instead of the people and those they\u2019ve conquered.
