Dum sits on a couch in the base watching a cartoon of a green dog. The green dog is very loud and is a mix of lovable, mildly annoying, and incredibly profitable, as an add for a hoodie of the dog appears on screen. Dum's one working eye widens and they scream as high as their digital chords would let them. They run and jump around the base until they fall into a sink drain. the pipes carry them to the underground of the base, a large basement surrounded by advanced technology. They continued screaming.

Roz was sitting in a small area that contained a desk. on the desk was a snack of firey hell balls, a tablet and pen, a shiny mirror screen, a ponytailed wig, and pink contact lenses. Roz put on the wig and struggled to put on the contact lenses. They itched and burned. She rubbed her eyes making the contacts vein codded like clustered branches on plain paper.

Dum jumped at Roz and latched on to her pak causing them both to scream. she tried to shake Dum off in a fit of terror which resulted in Dum falling on the floor. Roz turned around to face the SIR unit as they sat on the floor and shouted "again!"

"What on Irk's name do you want Dum? can't you see that I am incredibly busy!"

"I don't know anymore."

Roz scoffed and turned back towards the mirror screen. "I am preparing my further studies into the stupidity of the humans." She shuffled and fixed the wig on her head. "Computer! Turn the screen off!"

"How you gonna do that?" Dum cocked their metal head sideways.

Roz stood still and didn't turn around until she started talking. She walked away towards an elevator as she did.

"I have been reading up on these digital reports the humans have on their web net. In doing so, I have come across a message that said 'Stress and untimely deaths caused by..." Roz struggled to say the next word. "Scoooools... has increased.'"

"Ooooooh. What's that mean?"

"I had thought that myself. It turns out these Scools are learning facilities not unlike the early military training facilities on Irk's home planet."

Roz snickered. "Blending in with these filthy humans will be so much easier once I learn their ways of living. I can find their weaknesses and use them to Destroy all of mankind. The tallest will be so proud of me." Her last sentence sounded almost giddy.

Roz and Dum stepped on the elevator as it lifted them up to the base's first floor.

"Dum, I will need you to watch the base with extra caution. You never know when that hideous big headed neighbor child will show her face."

Dum's eye glowed red as they saluted.

"Yes master." Dum ran back onto the couch to watch their cartoons. Immediately comfortable, they pulled out a family sized bag of potato chips.

"Good. I'll be back soon, hopefully." Roz left the building and the door slammed down behind her.

Roz strolled towards a sign that read "school bus" and waited for it's arival.
Whistling and tapping her foot in impatience. Eventually the bus came speeding down the street. It stopped abruptly and it's doors oppened, releasing an incredibly hot, incredibly foul smelling odor. The man in the driver's seat looked at Roz and let out a raspy tone.

"Where you going kid?"

"S-school. I'm going to the school."

The bus driver looked neither surprised nor scared by Roz's green appearance.

"Okay!"

Roz paused for a moment and then walked up the bus stairs. The humidity was almost unbearable.
