*sigh* I really didn't want to write another chapter to this, cause I ended
it already, but since so many people wanted it, I decided to do ONE last
chapter. Just to show you whats going on a couple years later.
Written in Tak's POV, and Gir's POV.

Tak's POV
~~~
Its been four years now. Four years since I found love and lost it. It still pains me though. Even after all this time, I still hurt. But I guess thats normal. I mean, why wouldn't I still hurt? I only lost the love of my life, and only realized that a few hours before his death.
But atleast I've kept my promise to him. I've been trying to be happy. I'm mostly still hurting, and depressed, but I have recently found myself happy, haveing fun.
Just the other day I met someone really sweet. We're friends, nothing more, and I don't plan it to be more. Cause I'm still gonna see Zim, and when i do, I wanna be ready for him, and not commited to some other guy that would join as well someday. So I'm staying alone. Not friendless. Just alone, single.
Zim would probably tell me to do whatever made me happy. But just to tell the truth, I'm happy with just friends, nothing more. Besides no one else could ever live up to Zim.
The Tallest have cooled off some. They were extremly pissed after I beat them up. But who would blame them? Its not everyday you get beat up by not only a girl, but a girl who is smaller then you. But since they are my leaders, I never told anyone about me doing that to them. Only the Gods know what would have happened, if I DID tell.
I'm just glad that I'm doing better. And I'm happy knowing I still get to see Zim someday.
~~~~ Gir's POV
~~~~
Master's gone. Hes all gone. Hes not coming back, ever. I miss him. He was my friend. A better friend then Pig, or my moosey could ever be. I wish he was still here with me. Or I wish I could have one more day with him.
Tak has tried to explain to me where, and why he went. It kinda makes sence but not really. She told me he was tired, and hurt. That he had to go away from the pain. That he went to live in the skys.
Tak, cries a lot, and thinks about going away too. I plead her not to, and I think she finally decided to stay. I'm happy. Cause I miss master, and I don't want to miss her too. It hurts to miss people.
Tak has recently sent me to a programming place. She says I'm gonna be smarter, and be able to forget about master, and not be sad anymore. She says it will be better that way, but I don't believe it. Not one words of it. I don't wanna foget my master. So shes given up trying to get me to go that place.
I guess I'm smarter in a way. Tak has said things about it lately. I've realized I was really stupid, and still can be. But since I was never the robot my master wanted I've just tried harder.
But I wish I could see master again. I can't though. I'm a robot, he was a real creature. So when I die, or get shut down, or whatever happens, I'll just go away... I'll never see him again.
So I say "I love you master, and always will. And I miss you. I'm trying my best, and I'm doing okay..." I say that in hope he can hear me. And sometimes I think he can...
~~~ Tak's POV ~~~
I sit humming to myself. I hum a song of memories. Zim and I, we never had a song. But thats because we were in love only a little while before his death. I pull the memory out of my mind. The memory that we were never really together. I pull it out, and pretend I throw in in the wastebasket that is across the room from me.
Gir, he sits quietly next to my chair. In his hand is a rubber pig. His friend, he calls it. He lays it down and stares at the ground sadly.
I reach down and pat his head. He doesn't move. Poor Gir.
"Gir, its been four years now" I tell him "Shouldn't you try and do something, you need to get over it. What happened is over. Make use of what you have left.
Gir sits quietly not moving. But I can tell by the look in his small, circular, blue eyes that he is thinking. Finally he looks up at me. He stares hard. He nods as he pulls himself from the ground and wanders out of the room.
The poor thing. Why can't he just get over it? Whats done is done. I'm not over it, but I'm doing better... hes as bad as when it first happened. I shake my head, and close my eyes.
I think of Zim. I think of what he would do if he saw Gir like this. It wasn't normal at all for Gir to act like this. He was normally loud, and annoying, not quiet and still. He has also changed the way his head works. Hes grown smarter over the years (?) I think thats what I should say, but its still hard to tell with him.
~~~ Gir's POV ~~~
I walke silently up a small hill. At the top, the memorial I made for my master. Every Irken is burnt after they die, but a memorial is still built so you can always remember them.
I sit in front of the small stone, that is made of a beautiful stone. Its white, and has his name, and birth and death date written on the side.
"Master," I say "Please forgive me. Forgive me for everything I did to you. Every time I disobeyed or got you in trouble, forgive me for it." I pause "Master, I can't say anymore. Except I miss you."
I don't know what else to say. I strain to think of something else. But can't. Nothing comes to mind.
I curl myself in a little ball, and think.
I'm half asleep, when I hear something. Its like someones whispering in my ear, but when I turn to see whos there, theres nothing. But I slowly let my systems shut down, leaving my listening abilities on.
Then I hear it. A whisper of the wind. It tells me this "Gir, my friend, I'm here. You don't know it, but I am. I want you to stop. Stop trying to be what your not, be yourself. And I miss you too." thats what it told me.
It was strange, but comforting.
So I decide when my systems return to their normal state, I'll stop it. I'll be my normal self. No more brains. No more sadness. No more quietness.
I'm listening to what it said. I'm listening to what my master had just told me...
The End
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~
Hey people. Yes I know I even made Gir OOC, but it happens when you try to write something as deep as this. I can't help it. I mean for me its hard... because I kinda know how Gir and Tak should feel. I think I got their emotions about right. I know I got them right. I know how it feels to lose someone you love and adore, but I won't go on about that. So anyway, I hope you liked it. And believe me when I say, I won't do another chapter to this. This was the last. But don't worry, I'm already coming up with ideas for my next story.
