Begin Recording.

It began the moment the tall human exited. Dib’s smeet-creator. The “Professor.” He left the room, the door clicked shut, and the temperature changed.

Dib turned. Quick. Too quick.

We were arguing, of course. That was normal. My superiority. His delusions. Same cycle. But this time, there was no distance between us—only heat. And then—

He reached beneath my wig.

He grabbed my antennae.

And he pulled.

Pain spiked—bright, white, blinding pain. Every nerve in my skull screamed at once. I made a sound no Irken should ever be forced to make on Earth:

A true screech.

A scream of agony, of betrayal, of raw unfiltered instinct.

And in that moment?

I shoved him. Hard.

He hit the floor. His expression twisted—shock, rage, maybe fear. I didn’t wait to decipher it.

I activated my PAK legs. Four sleek limbs unfurled with a hiss of hydraulics and hate. My instincts kicked in. My exit was already chosen. I shot across the room in a blur of motion and fury—

—and slipped cleanly through the open kitchen window.

No glass shattered. No mess left behind. Just air.

Air and freedom.

I vanished into the night before he could say a word.

My antennae burned. Even now, the memory causes phantom pain.

But worse than the pain is the echo:

His face on the floor.

My scream in the air.

And the feeling that… something shifted that day.
