I wake up in the basement, to someone entering.
I look up, it's dad. I sigh and look at the ground, slowly standing up.
"Yes, dad?" I ask
"What are you doing down here?" He asks
"Does it matter?" I ask
"Why did you come down here?" He asks after a moment
"I wanted to get away, from everything."
"Everything?"
"I wanted to get away from our argument, all of them. And who I'm going to be..." I say suddenly finding courage.
"Who your going to be? You mean.. a Tallest?" He asks
"Well, yes. I don't wanna be a Tallest, it's not who I am, I can feel it. No, I can't feel it, or anything. But, I know I'm not fit to be a leader."
"But, I don't understand, you've always wanted to be a Tallest."
"Yeah, maybe when I was a smeet, but I'm not anymore. And I don't want to now."
"I'm having a hard time understanding, what do you want to do?"
"I don't know." I say
"Than how can you be sure this is really what you want?" Dad asks
"I'm not." I say and walk away not wanting to answer anything else.
I look around, no one is paying attention, I could jump in a Cruiser and fly off, no one would know. That's it! I could leave and figure out what I want to do with my life!
I sneak into the other room, jump in a Cruiser, and fly off. Man, all those flying lessons really paid off! But where should I go? I know, I'll go the that mystery planet I sent Zim to! It's somewhere, and I know any Irken would take me in. So I guess this is it, it's what I'll do. "Hey, Cruiser? How long does it take to get to planet Earth?" I ask
"Six months." The Cruisers computer says. This is a bright idea...
