Monday 6:30 PM ( When I do this: *^- It switches to 2nd/3rd POV )

Your POV

"Your vocabulary is not that wide is it?"

"Voe-cab-ulary?"

"ugh."

We have been at it for an hour and a half now and Zim seems to be at a 3rd-grade level. How can he be in our class at this level? He's probably the same age as me! I'm 15! Maybe he never had any extra help? Probably. He could read and write but only knew basic English, some vocabulary words he still had not seemed to know.

"Zim how are you in our grade?" I asked I was genuinely curious. He looked at me confused, I shook my head. "Never mind." I looked down at the sheet we were working on and pointed out the next word to him.

"Ok, what does 'Perplexed' mean?" I asked him, he scratched his chin in thought.

"Hmm, isn't that an emotion?"

"Yes." 

"Ummm" Suddenly a loud ring echoed throughout the house. Zim's face seemed to go pale for a moment then he nervously chuckled. "Excuse me, that must be my uh, Microwave! Yes yes my microwave, Zim will be back shortly." 

"Microwaves do-" But he was already sprinting into the kitchen. A few minutes pass and I'm still sitting at the table in the middle of the living room. Suddenly I heard a distance yell and some arguing.

"Tallest--War--Earth" Was all I could make out, sighing I went to the kitchen to search for Zim but there was no sign of him. I looked down to see a rotten apple core on the floor.

"I should probably throw this away." I walked over to the left of the kitchen where a big garbage can sat. I flipped the lid of the trash can to see nothing there but a metal platform.

"What the- Hey!" I suddenly was pushed inside the trash can, the metal platform descended down like an elevator.

*^-

Outside the trash can, a robot can be seen bumping into the side of it. An apple core landed on the robot's head but he did not seem to care. The robot heard you yelp.

"What was that?" A noise distracted him. "THE ANGRY MONKEY SHOW IS ON YAY!!" Stupid robot.

Your POV

The platform came to a sudden stop, getting onto my feet I noticed I was now in a very dark and eerie place. The arguing got louder.

"My Tallest!! The Earth is almost ready for you to colonize! I'm so very close to talking to the leader of Earth, Mr. President Man. I have a plan to-" The voice sounded familiar, was it Zim?

"ZIM! HOW MANY TIMES HAVE WE TOLD YOU! THE WAR BETWEEN IRKEN'S AND BLORGKINS HAVE PREVENTED US FROM FOCUSING ON COLONIZING PLANETS!!" The voice was powerful, it was definitely male, and sounded annoyed. A second voice followed.

"Yea Zim! We need to focus more on our army's! We are losing too many Irken soldiers because of this war!" I peeked behind a piece of machinery and gasped. Unfortunately, the two very tall aliens on the screen heard me.

"What was that? Zim!? Are you alone?" The red one asked. 

"I'm sure of it my Tallest!" Zim assured. 

"Then what is THAT?" He pointed in my direction.

"ShIT!" I whispered more cuss words under my breath, my arm was yanked to the side. Zim was holding my arm and he did not look happy at all. Immediately I take note that he no longer was in his disguise! He had big red ruby-like eyes and two antennae atop his head.
