Hey. I'm back.

Warning: O_O I'm scaring myself writing this, so... ^_^ ZADR in later chapters. I like that pairing SO much ^_^ Yaoi forever!

*...* thinking

"..." speaking (duh)

Thinking is in Dib's POV

Disclaimer: Invader Zim doesn't belong to me

*I guess I've felt it in my heart for awhile. The unsettling feeling that something horrible, and life shattering is going to happen. Usually we just pass it off for something stupid, like heartburn, and never think of it again.*

Dib stood on the stoop of his house, staring.

*I suppose I just put it off like to others. Ignored the signs. I could always feel their pain... Their ignorance hurt me.*

He stood there, wide eyed, blood splattered across his face, and dripping off of his hands.

* All signs pointed to me. But I didn't do it! I used that knife to butter my toast... that was it. I never plunged it through their skin. Never stabbed them mercilessly until I could wade in their blood. I was out... doing what I did everyday, now, since Zim left. I was wandering the streets. I wasn't there!*

Tears swelled up in his eyes, mixing with the blood, causing reddened tears to fall down his cheeks.

*I knew I shouldn't go near them. I knew that they were dead... but my body couldn't believe it. It refused to believe. I knew I shouldn't touch them... but I couldn't help it. Their skin was so cold under my fingers... So lifeless... So dead.*

(A/N: Going to present tense)

Dib lay in a white bed, staring, unblinking, at the ceiling. His face stoic.

*They thought it was me. How couldn't they? All signs pointed to me... but I didn't do it. I'm insane, am I? I suppose I now am... Since I lay here. They all think I'm insane.*

~~~ But you are.~~~

*I suppose I am. But who am I? I'm on so many pills now, that I can't seem to remember.*

~~ You are yourself. You are the only.~~

*Then who are you?*

~~ I am you.~~

*But aren't I myself?*

~~ Yes. And I am also you.~~

*How is that so?*

~~~ Fall into my grace, and I shall tell you.~~~

Dib closed his eyes, slowly, falling into a light sleep.

Short, I know. Don't worry if it didn't make sense, it's not supposed to. ^_^() It'll be explained later. R & R!

Oh. I'm at a kind of dilemma... I'm not sure if I should have Zim in a better disguise, or him turned into a human (Which I shall explain if you pick this).
