Chapter 4

Z: Allright X, what happened?

X: According to what I heard, some smart aleck MIB came in here and shot Jazel, with some kind of large crazy gun.

Z: Definately an MIB, but I doubt it's Kay, he always uses that small gun with a needle sticking out of it.

J: This is crazy, there's just no way this could happen.

Z: Oh stop your bellyaching J, it's not the first time this has happened, we've all gotten used to it by now. Basically the only murderers around here ARE MIB and some of the most homeliest aliens you've seen around here.

M: What about the...

Z: The imbeciles that were after us earlier?

M: Yeah...

Z: The West Coast Brothers aren't interested in murder, just bloody disturbances.

M: Well they sure do a good job.

J: So how are we going to find out who did this.

Z: Never you worry, I called for some backup.

Ten creatures resembling the Worms came busting through a wall in an crazy old crank-up car.

J: Worms!

Z: Yes, although they're not like the ones you're used to seeing on Earth, for on thing, they're bigger, by about three feet, and they're smarter, the ones here have an IQ of 1, while yours have none.

M: What are they doing here?

Worm 1: We were hired to investigate.

Z: Have you any idea as to where the murderer might be?

Worm 2: Uhhhhh not yet, but we're hot on his tail.

J: Him? How do you know its a 'him'?

Worm 3: Women MIB murderers always kiss the victim before they do, but in this case, if it were a she, she would've slapped her.

M: I guess around here, more people got more reasons to be single.

Z: More than you think.

J: How old was she?

Z: She was 4,089, in your time, that's 22.

J: You mean on Earth?

X: Quite so, a bit behind our times.

J: How can you tell that it was an MIB for real?

X: No fingerprints were left, we know how it goes with MIB, everything is deleted and forgotten, names, birth certificates, prints,

Z: Although I wouldn't say he's too smart.

M: Why?

X: Because on his way out, he stumbled into a barrel of intergalactic phospherous gunk, normally we use it for throwing at people. And the prints continue half way through this part of town.

Z: I say, let's go...

They walked out of the building, only to be chased into a fruit stand by the West Coast Brothers, they laughed as they disappeared.

Z: I'd like to meet with the boss of them, so I could shove a watermelon up his...

Mr Kree-ak: Hey you little scalewags, you just went and messed up my fa-ruit stand.

M: (sarcastically) Oh so sorry.

M spit in Mr. Kree-ak's face.

Z: M, are you sure you aren't in the wrong line of work?

M: What do you mean?

Z: You know everything to do around here like you came from here, and you don't know anything J.

J: Since you know everything, tell me, how are we going to get out of this fruit stand? These guanabanas are sticking me to the it.

Z: It doesn't take a genius to know that, this fruit can only hold someone for...

So long, they fell off the stand and onto the ground. They trailed the tracks to the middle of 976 8668th Street, then they disappeared, and they found it as a red herring. On their way back, they ran into some bumpy air.

Z: Well by the way Jay's driving, I don't think you'd be able to tell.

J: Shut up.

They ran into some more bumpy air and some traffic, during a sharp turn, X and M fell out and dropped to the ground.

J: This trip here's just been more trouble than its worth, M's just been working as an MIB for one year, he doesn't know half the things I do.

Z: Well that's just fine and dandy, but X is my twin brother and he's down there and so is M and his light bulb has gone out enough times for one day. They're down there so we gotta go and get them back.

J: Well, here we go.

J turned the car around again and they headed back, once they spotted the two, they landed the car, Z jumped out and ran over to M.

J: What are you doing?

Z: You're forgetting, X's my brother, he can revive himself, but M's light's growing dimmer every time this happens.

Z stuck her nails into M's neck again, but nothing happened, she blew on her nails with the wind of a hurricane, dust and smoke went in the air, and she tried again. She put so much into it this time, his body started vibrating, sparks started to fly, and it worked.

M: What happened?

X: We got knocked out of the car, and hit solid ground, that's what happened.

As soon as he finished speaking, Z got shot at from above, she jumped into Jay's arms, but when she saw she was, she dropped herself back on the ground. They looked up and saw someone in a black suit at the fifth floor in a building make a run for it. They decided to tail him and break his neck, X and M were the fastest ones up, J was behind them, but Z had disappeared someone on the third floor. Shortly after a while, J wore himself out, he stopped to catch his breath. A cold clamy hand reached out from behind the wall and grabbed him. He turned around only to see Z.

Z: Look, J, I know we got our differences, but I need your help.

J: With what?

Z showed him the lower part of her left arm, she had something resembling a blade disc stuck half way in it. J could easily see that she lost a lot of blood.

Z: There's an infirmary and an operating room down the hall, even though this thing doesn't hurt me, I need to get it out.

J moved her into the infirmary, and put her on a cold metal operating table. He took out a several medical supplies for removing things during an operation. He prepared to remove the blade, although she didn't cry or say anything, she had a terrible look on her face.

J: Forgive me for doing this...

J went through with the procedure, normally for someone else there would be horrifying pain, even more so since he didn't bother with anesthesia. But Z couldn't have cared less about it, finally once he removed it, he soaked a bunch of gauze in a bottle of peroxide and tightly wrapped it around her arm. As they exited the infirmary, they ran into X and M.

J: Did you find him?

M: Na, stupid here tripped and he got away.

X: But it definately looks like Kay's back in his work again.

Z: What'll we do?

J: If he got away, I say don't go chasing someone who ain't even there.

Z: Yeah, let's get back to the apartment before we get chased down the elevator shaft.

By the time they returned, it was already dark out, time sure went by fast over there. No wonder she's 2,738, J thought.

J: Where're you going?

Z: To get some sleep, after today, I'm beat, although I guess I do owe you for helping me earlier.

J: Ahhh, forget it, Z, even though we've been at each other's throats the last couple days, you're an okay kid.

Z looked at him with an irritated face.

J: Person, but you gotta admit Z, if you were on Earth, you'd be clarified as a 14 year old.

Z: Which is why I'm not on Earth, now if you will excuse me, I am going to bed, and if you stare in through the key hole...

J waited in suspense for her to finish.

Z: Then you're going to be very disappointed, I blocked it up with scotch tape three weeks ago.

Z closed the door and lied down in bed, and shut off the light, within a few minutes, J could hear screaming and struggling coming from the bedroom, he ran in only to find M back in bed with her.

J: M, what do you think you're doing?

M: Honest, J, I didn't know she was in here, I came in through the back door and stumbled in here a few seconds ago.

J started screaming at M and tried dragging him out of bed by his armpits.

Z: Leave him, J, I need someone to talk to, and out of the two of you, he's the most normal one who would even understand what I've got to say.

J left, leaving the two to speak in private.

M: Z, I am truly sorry, I didn't know you were in here, I-

Z: Shutup M...

Z tilted M's head back and kissed him on the lips for a period of time, while he was recovering from the shock, she fell down in bed asleep. Overwhelmed by the shock, he fell down on the bed as well. A short while later, he walked out of the bedroom and into the bathroom, J could hear M throwing water on himself repeatedly.

J: M, are you washing up or trying to drown yourself in the South Sink?

M: J, I need help, I'm in trouble.

J: Cool it man, I've seen the Cosby Show, you'll go to the hospital, you'll huff and puff, and in the end, you'll give birth to a six foot submarine sandwich and 2 liter orange soda.

M: No, not like that, earlier something happened between me and Z.

J: She hit ya?

M: Worse

J: She BIT ya?

M: Not quite, she kissed me.

J: What?

M: Well, she did this *tilts J's head back* and then she kissed me.

J: Uh-huh, and when she did, did you feel anything between the two of you.

M: Yes, a nice cold draft.

J: I don't mean like that.

M: I know what you mean, yes and no.

J: What do you mean yes and no?

M: I mean I know what I have to do, and it's not going to be good for either of us either way it turns out.

M went back into the bedroom, Z was already up and about.

M: Z, we need to talk.

Z: What about? Bad news.

M: Yes.

Z: What kind of bad news?

M: You better sit down, this isn't going to be easy, I'm not sure how to put what I've go to say, and I don't want you to start crying.

Z: M, one thing you should know about me, I do not cry when some little thing starts up, I never did, I don't, I won't, that's the way I am, now what is it?

M: Earlier when you kissed me, I-

Z: Didn't like it.

M: It's not that, it's just-I'm a grown man, here you're 2,738 yes, but where I come from, you'd just be 14.

Z: I'm barren until 18.

M: That's not what matters, Z, I-why did you kiss me?

Z: I like you, you seem more adjusted around here, you're certainly better than Jay, and you're nice.

M: You're nice too, but that's the problem, the two of us don't belong in the same picture because...

Z: Because I'm barren?

M: No, not because of that.

Z: You mean it'd be like this, even if I was six inches taller, two thousand years older, and had larger beachballs?

M broke out laughing.

M: I'm embarrassed to answer that.

Z: YOU'RE embarrassed?

M: Z, I'm going to ask you again, and this time I'm hoping for a different answer, why did you kiss me?

Z: Let's go by your standards, I'm 14, I'm not pregnant, I'm not a lesbian, I'm very ugly, also very stupid, and I've got absolutely no man in my life except for X, but that's just cuz he's my twin brother. Now what have I got going on for me? You mind if I say something, M? Normally, the Men in Black don't act human cuz they're always on duty, Kay put Earth in trouble by being involved with some space queen. But you-you're too nice to be one of them, you actually act human.

M: And you are a minor where I come from, it would never work, Z, it just wouldn't, and I'm not saying this just to spite you, if Jay and I got back to headquarters, they'd see to it that it never worked.

Z: Oh boy,

M: Listen Z, you're going to make a great wife, but to someone else, things could never work out between us, I'm dressed head to toe in black and white, you blow up the rainbow on your clothes, I'm used to things being somewhat quiet, you knock the volume control up fifteen times more. I'm on my feet all day fighting aliens, you do I don't know what.

Z: I know, but I hear that sometimes the two most different people make the greatest couples.

M: Z...

J: M, get out here...

M walked out into the front to see J, X, and Kay, back again.

M: What's he doing here?

J: Apparently Kay found a way to get here from Earth, so now we can go back now, thank you for the lovely tour of the town.

Z: Hold it, nobody's going anywhere, you've got a lot of explaining to do K.

K: About what?

Z: You know about what, you came here two months ago and threatened everybody, now it's time for revenge.

K: I don't know what you're talking about?

Z: Oh yeah?

Z, X, J, and M got zapped out of there and to a place that resembled MIB headquarters.

J: Where are we?

Z: You would've found out sooner or later, this is the check in station, people from Earth can come here through there. Normally it doesn't work at this time of day.

J: How do they get here?

Z: You see that electric static ball over there?

J: Yeah.

Z: It energizes electricity to zap people from one place to the next.

M: No kidding.

Z stumbled and fell on the floor next to the electric ball, it got genereated up and transported her out of there before anything could be done. She looked up and saw MIB all around her, finally she passed out. Later she awoke in someone's office, she fell off the desk and looked around.

Z: I've got a feeling I know who works here...

Just like so, in came Zed, Z got up and was ready for the kill.

Z: You.

Zed: YOU!

Z: What's the big idea of this? What am I doing here?

Zed: That's what I'd like to know, we don't approve of road kill.

Z: Look in the mirror again?

Zed: Z, you never cease to disgust me.

Z: I know the feeling, you're 50 years old and still worthless.

Zed: How long has it been?

Z: Twenty five years since this started, and you're just as ugly as I remember.

Zed: You always were trouble. I would've had youe exterminated except your brother got in the way. The dirty rat.

Z: Don't you talk about my brother! ANd let me tell you something else you tub of lard.

Zed: What?

Z passed out and hit the floor, Zed called over to an MIB in the hall.

Zed: Call the morgue.

J: What just happened here?

X: THat thing doesn't start up automatically, someone from Earth must've started it, and I sense it's a lowdown deadbeat.

M: You mean like Zed?

X: He's still alive? If so, that would explain it.

J: You know him?

X: Know him? We tried to kill him at one time, but he got away.

J: When was that?

X: About twenty five years ago, if Z's not back she must be in trouble, let's go.

Z awoke on a cold metal table, she looked around and realized she was surrounded by dead bodies, she looked and saw she was wearing something similar to a hospital gown.

Z: How do you like that? Somebody stole my clothes, who steals a person's clothes? I gotta get out of here.

Z changed into her old clothes and was ready to leave when she heard two people coming, she dove onto the table and threw the sheet over her body.

Zed: Take this body to the crematory.

Z: Crematory? That's a hot one, I'm getting out of here!

Zed and the coroner screamed, the coroner ran out the door, Zed slipped and fell down the laundry chute. Z walked over to the chute and dropped a blanket down on Zed, who was unconscious.

Z: I doubt he'll need that to keep him warm where he's going, now to get out of here.

End of 4, 5's coming up soon.
