A new beginning...

Zim laughed insanely as he finished touching up on his new exo suit. It had taken more then a full earth month, but he had finally completed it. "At last!" Zim yealled. "With this I will finally destroy that Dib-monster! After seven years on this pathetic dirt planet I will rid myself of that little pest!" Zim was yelling alot of this to himself. His little robot, Gir, was dancing and beat boxing in the corner.

Zim let out an evil chuckle, which grew into another full laugh. His laughing quickly became choked coughing. He undid the top button on his shirt, gasping for breath. After so many years he had outgrown his invader uniform, and was forced to wear human clothing. He steadied his breathing and listened intently. Asides from Girs beat boxing, his base was utterly quiet. Although he would never admit it, Zim sometimes became very lonely here.

Back above ground Dib sat on his couch watching Mysterious Mysteries, focusing on nothing else but an eye witness report of Bigfoot. Upstairs though, Dib's sister, Gaz, sat in her room. Her game slave was off and cast aside, her head hung between her knees and her purple hair cascaded over her face. This was sight no other living person had ever seen before. Gaz sat there, crying.

'Why am I so alone?' She thought to herself. 'My dad, like now, is always at the lab, my brother is a moronic freak, and everyone at that Highskool are all idiots! I hate them all!' A new stream of tears ran down her face. "I hate them all." she said out loud. But then she thought for a moment. 'All except one.' She started thinking again. 'The only person I have ever had feelings for, and he doesn't even know about them.'

Gaz almost smiled, thinking about him. 'I can't tell him how i feel, I'll look stupid. Plus, he's not even from this pl-'"DIB!" A voice screamed from her front yard. Speak of the devil... That voice... Gaz stood up and looked out her window, which had a direct view of her front yard. There he stood, that green alien. Zim.

Zim glared angrily at Dib's home. He was about to yell for the human again when something smacked into the side of his exo suits helmet. He stumbled in the opposite direction, then turned to see who did it. Dib was there, in his own human made exo suit. Ha had thrown a rock at Zim. "You filthy worm-baby! You will fall at the hands of ZIM!" He screamed. "Bring it on Zim!" Dib retorked.

He cried out and lunged at Zim, his fist swinging from the left. Zim ducked, avoiding it, and brought his own fist upward, pushing himself with his legs. It connected with Dib's chin, whipping the humans head back. Dib staggered, but managed to stay on his feet. He shook his head and gave Zima murderous look. "I'm going to kill you, Zim!" Dib exclaimed. Zim answered with nothing more then a chuckle, which angered Dib more.

Zim and Dib ran at each other, bringing their fists forward, screaming as they did so. Their fists connected with such force as to make their armor crack. The Irken material that made up Zim's armor was uch stronger then the human metal that made up Dib's though.

The humans right armed cracked even more, and then shattered, revealing bare skin below. His arm flew back, and Zim took that chance to strike another blow. He brought his foot up, and sprung it out, kicking the humans chest plate. The frail armor dented, and Dib was tossed backward. He hit the ground with a thud, and his helmet rolled to the side.

Dib lied there, dazed. He tried to get back up, but Zim put his foot on Dib's neck, holding him down. Zim laughed as only he could. "Pi-ti-ful hyuuuman!" Zim exclaimed, with to much emphathy. "Not as tough as you thought you were?" Zim laughed againg, and pulled an Irken energy pistol from his PAK. He aimed it at Dib' head.

'This is where it ends.' Dib thought. "You die here Dib-monkey!" Zim exclaimed, a homicidal look on his face. Dib clenched his teeth, and squeezed his eyes shut, waiting for his demise. Nothing happened. He peeked his eyes open. The look on Zim's face had softened.

'What's the matter?' Zim thought. 'Here is the Dib-human, my wepon at point blank. i'm ready to kill him, I hate him! He's my mortal enemy... So why am I hesitating?
