"I-i can't tell you." Kinki stuttered standing up and facing Taifu.
"WHY NOT." Taifu demanded. Gaz jumped up at this.
"BECAUSE YOU'LL DIE!"
"SO WHAT!" Taifu shouted angirled her hands forming tight fists. "I DON'T CARE!"

"Taifu, stop being such a-"
"No! Look, you may not want me dead, but the truth is, I feel dead just sitting here! I feel dead on the inside, staring out as my friends risk their lives! Dib's a genious, he'll zoom through college with passing colors, get a job, probably run off with you-" she looked to Kinki, "Have kids, and protect the Earth. But what would I do? Huh? I'd probably chicken out, and drink myself to death. I don't know about you, but I'm going off to save my stupid roommate. Are you in or not?"
Silence. Complete and utter silence. Gaz sighed, and stepped forward, staring at Taifu, then taking a place beside her. "She's right... Kinki... if we don't go now, then Dib's as good as dead."
"I know that, but I don't need Taifu going and-"
"Kinki, let me go." Taifu lowered her voice, and clasped her friends shoulder, searching for some form of reasoning. "I'm not scared." She lowered her eyes, biting her lip a moment before looking up. "If I die tonight... I'll die at peace. If I die, I'll deliver Zim to hell's doorstep myself." She glanced up again, lowering her hand to her side.
Gaz looked away, out the window. "Hey, if we don't hurry, my stupid brother will be dead by the time we get there."
Taifu nodded, and ran a hand through her short hair. "Kinki... I'm going with our without your permission... but I'd really like it if you believed in me - or at least pretended to. Lie to me if you have to. Please."
"Taifu, Kinki!" Gaz snapped, "Hurry it up!"
Taifu snapped to attention, and quickly shooed Gir away. "Are you in?" she asked one last time, looking at Kinki.

"Kinki nodded. "But not for the reason you think. I'm going because I must go. I have a role to carry out tonight seeing as we could not stop you." Her eyes trailed to the floor a small hope in her heart wishing for the end to change. After all the future wasn't written in stone...just on paper.
QQQ
Ansatsusha had run from the building at first chance. The plan was very stupid. those filthy Americans. Ah well they were getting what they deserved.
QQQ
Zim's attack never slowed. All of his rage was poured out in to his limbs enabling him to strike again and again. Dib was weakening. He couldn't keep up with Zim and he could hardly protect himself. A serious kick to the stomach had him coughing up blood on to the floor. His body could take no more and he assumed the fetal position on the floor. Risking a glance at Zim's face he saw that the Irken was crying.
"Zim...?" He coughed out. Amazingly Zim hear him over the noise of the one sided fight.
"Filthy Stink-WORM!" He kicked harder in to Dib's stomach. "YOU LYING PIECE OF HUMAN SHIT!" Dib flinched again and again as more and more blows hit his body. All of Zim's frustrations and anger were let out in the form of his tears and Dib's pain.
And oh the pain. Dib had never received so much pain. He wanted to die right there just to make it stop. But Dib was a stubborn one and he knew he had a job to do. He had to convince Zim. "Zim..GAH!..s-stop."

"Ansatusha!" Kinki waved him down as they ran, and the Asian man skid to a halt, staring at them.
"You people are crazy!" he yelled.
"What's going on?" Gaz snapped, grabbing the front of Ansatusha's shirt. "We want to know everything - every last detail."
Ansatusha shook his head. "Something hormonal - I'm out of here." With that, he raced away from them.
"Coward!" Gaz yelled after him. ___
The beating continued, Dib's breath growing laden, his fingers trembling, his eyes struggling to stay open, grunting and groaning with each blow that sent more and more blood from his lips. "Zim... please stop...."
Zim spoke again.
"NEVER! MY LIFE, MY MISSION, MY EXISTANCE - YOU KILLED IT! YOU HUMANS! I HATE YOU ALL SO MUCH! YOU RUINED ME!!!" He jerked Dib up by the shirt. His red eyes shined against his tears in pure loathing. "DON'T YOU KNOW, DIB? DON'T YOU KNOW I'M SHUTTING DOWN BECAUSE OF YOU? I'M BEING REMOTELY DEACTIVATED AS WE SPEAK BECAUSE I COULDN'T COMPLETE MY MISSION! BECAUSE I WAS BORN DEFECTIVE AND HAVE PROVEN IT! BUT I COULD HAVE HAD REDEMPTION HAD YOU SIMPLY LEFT ME BE!"
"W-what?" Dib stammered.
"The mission is - no, was - my life! I was oh so serious about that, Dib, and yet you scoffed at me!!! I could have lived to see another day had you simply let me win just this once!" he screamed, "BUT YOU DIDN'T! ZIM IS GOING TO HELL, AND TAKING YOU WITH HIM!"
"T-this is what y-your lead-ders get their - their - kicks out of?" Dib gaped as his face was crushed into the ground by a fist, and his vision began to tint slightly red.
"SILENCE! JUST SILENCE YOUR TUBE OF NOISES! SHUT UP, DIB, JUST SHUT YOUR HORRIBLE MOUTH FULL OF-" He felt something warm clasp his waist, against his back, and his grip on Dib's shirt slackened as he felt hot liquid stain the back of his shirt. "How much did you hear?" he asked shakily into the silence, staring out the window at the dark world outside.
"A lot." a quivering voice answered. "So... this had nothing to do... with hormones?"
Zim allowed his arms to fall to his sides, shaking his head, pursing his lips, closing his eyes in an attempt to hide his tears. "Leave." he whispered hoarsely.
Note shook his head into Zim's back, fingers curling into the fabric of the Irken's shirt. Gaz, to the side, wrung her bat in her hands, and Kinki silently looked away. Dib lurched up, gaped for air, and managed to grab a fistful of Zim's shirt before falling back to the ground. "Don't you dare... harm... them." he hissed, his fingers growing limp, and they fell back to the ground to twitch as he struggled to keep himself awake, struggled to keep his glare on the alien.
"Zim... I hate you...." Note shuddered, but his grasp tightening around Zim's waist proved otherwise as he bit his lip, nuzzling into the defective PAK. "If I had known... this was happening... to you...."
"You would have done something stupid." Zim muttered. Note released a whine, fingers clawing at Zim, and his black hair fell before his eyes as he nodded.
"I hate you so much." Note croaked, watching his tears fall unto the maroon shirt, trying to keep his fingers from trembling as one of his hands raised to meet Zim's cheek, feeling the hot tears on the Irken's face. Note's voice shuddered as his crying only grew worse. "Soooo much...."
"Enough with the sappiness - let's end this." Gaz hissed, standing up, wielding her baseball bat.

"Gaz stop." Kinki grabbed the girls arm refusing to let her get any closer to Zim.
"Kinki let me go." Gaz growled. Kinki looked sadly at Dib as he fought to stay conscious. At Note as he wept in anger holding Zim still. And then at Zim....the dying Irken who was falling apart once again. Kinki reached up to Gaz and pulled the bat from her grasp. "What are you-?"
"Ending it." Kinki muttered pushing Gaz back and stalking towards Zim slowly. "Zim...this wasn't your fault." She sighed to him. He glared at her eye's still leaking tears. "Note let go of him." Note refused but Kinki shoved him off any way. "This will hurt Zim...but it's for the best." Before Zim could bolt for the exit and before he even bothered to think about doing so the bat connected with his pak sending sparks flying.

Note curled on the floor, watching the sparks, tears leaking unto the floor, and when they ended, all that was left was a body and an empty shell fading. Kinki bit her lip, looking away, her finger curling around a lock of her long hair.
"Zim...." The Irken's eyes rose to look at Note as they began to dull. "I love you." And it was over.
Taifu stared at the corpse on the floor, and she sat up, pulling her hair. "This sucks." she said, "THIS SUCKS!" Her knuckles rose to her mouth, muffling a scream of frustration.
"Shut up." Gaz said gruffly, pulling her brother up off the ground, supporting him. Taifu shook her head, but no words could come. She looked up at Kinki, who could only cast the bat aside and twirl her hair even harder, clinging to herself.
Taifu hid her face in her hands, but soon released it, running her hand through her hair. She clambered forward, prying the PAK off the Irken's back, and desperately opened it, trying to put the peices back together. "This is NOT how it will end." she said.
"Taifu, it's already done." Kinki said.
"No it's NOT. If I have to rewrite history, I will! But this is NOT the end."
"Taifu-"
"KINKI!" Silence filled the room. Taifu glared up at Kinki, eyes unwavering. For several minutes, the only sound was the the sound of Dib's shaky breath rattling the air. Taifu, cradling the PAK, stood up. "This is him, isn't it?" she asked. No answer - she thrust it forward, listening to it rattle as it rolled across the floor. "ISN'T IT?" Kinki slowly nodded. Taifu scooped it up, and tucking it under one arm, used the other to attempt to pull the body off the ground.
Gaz grimaced. "Why can't you just-"
"Just what? Let another person in my life die because I was too stupid to see what needed to be done?" Taifu allowed the body to fall, but clutched the PAK. "No! I'll find a way to rewrite this! And I don't care what you say."
"And what if you screw it up even worse?" Gaz snapped.
"Then I'll go back and rewrite it again! If I have to keep rewriting until the day I die, I will! But I will NOT let this happen. Hell, I'd get pregnant before I let this happen. I'd be raped a thousand times over. I'd die. I'm not asking for your help or your support, but I WILL fix this."
Kinki tried to pull the PAK away. "Taifu, please-"
"Let her." Gaz snorted. "Let her go save her precious alien lover."
"Taifu, don't-"
"Tell me, what will happen if I don't, huh? What will happen to me? To him?" she pointed across the room to Dib, already unconcious. Kinki couldn't answer, only releasing a whimper. "I'll see you on the other side." Taifu whispered, and stalked off, PAK close to her chest.
