(okay everyone...here's my first zadr ...i was at first opposed to the idea but i've actualy come around ...it's interesting and highly possible...so read and enjoy...and just to let you know i don't get all perverted)


Zim shivered violently again and pulled Dibs trench coat tightly around him. The ground was frozen stiff and the air was bitter and cold, revealing his breath as he slowly exhaled. He gave a half glare to the person who sat a few feet away from him. Dib had his knees up to his chest and his bare arms wrapped around them tightly. His chin rested atop his knees and his eyes were half open but seemingly in deep thought.

"This is all your f.fault Dib s..stink" Zim half stuttered

Dib eyes opened fully and he shot an angry glare at Zim before responding defensively "me?...y..you're the one who c..caused the avalanche"

"You are full of l..lies" Zim said "I d.did no s..such thing"

"But...I...you..ggrrr...forget it Zim" Dib said "You should be gratef..ful that I let you wear my c..coat"

"I do not need your s..stupid inferior coat" Zim stated taking the jacket off him and reaching it out towards Dib. Zims gaze was fixated on the hand that held out the jacket, He had enjoyed the little warmth it had provided him and instantly regretted taking it off.

Dib stared at his jacket then reached his hand out just as Zim let out another violent shiver.He looked up seeing Zim's stare, his eyes looking off to the side and refusing to admitt any signs of weakness. Dib hesitated and then with a sigh he pulled his hand away.

"You keep it" Dib whispered

"Eh?" Zim questioned looking up at Dib

"I said k..keep it" Dib stated turning his head away to gaze forward at the dimly lit fire they had made "Your body can't w..withstand this t..temperature as good as mine c..can"

Zim gave him an annoyed and angry glare but rather than protest he mumbled an incoherent insult and stubbornly put the jacket back on. "Why do you care if I am c..cold?" he asked

"I d..don't Zim" Dib said now a little annoyed, "But as much as I hate to admit it I might n..need your help if we ever hope to g..get out of this c..ave"

"Fine" Zim reluctantly agreed "But as soon as I am s..safe I shall once again try and d..destroy you and this planet"

"So..." Dib said slowly looking over a Zim "..This is a truce?"

Zim narrowed his eyes slightly "For now" he mumbled

Dib sighed and inched closer to the fire 'stupid ski trip' he thought to himself shivering 'It's been at least five hours and I bet no ones even looking for us'

"We are never going to g..get out just sitting here" Zim finally said

"I know" Dib agreed "But the entrance is s..sealed and w.we have yet to think of a way out"

"You dare blame this on me Dib worm" Zim said "Though I am full of amazing ideas I can not concentrate under these conditions"

"I never said I was blaming you Zim" Dib said annoyed "you're c..crazy"

"Yeah well you're...y..you're.." Zim paused a moment for thought "..um...you're...ugly"

"Wow Zim that was clever" Dib stated dryly "You must have been working on that for the last five hours"

Zim growled and stood up "I can not help it...um..er...Dib" Zim said seeming to struggle with his sentence "This...is...uh...uncomfortable"

Dib gave Zim a confused look "What's your problem"

"I have no problem Dibstink" Zim snapped "Perhaps you are the one with..." Zim stopped mid-sentence and looked around confused. His gaze finally fell on Dib "What was I...s..saying?" he asked

Dib stood up beside Zim, giving him a confused look "Okay...seriously Zim...what's g..going on?"

"I should be asking you th..that Dib beast" Zim said "W..where are we?"

"Uh...where we've been for the past 6 hours now" Dib stated in a 'duh' kinda way

"Which is?" Zim said his expression seem confused but at the same time accusing

"Okay somethings definitely wrong with y..you"

"Hey... why am I wearing your disgusting human coat thing" Zim asked jerking it off and throwing it to the ground

"Zim have you completely lost your..." Dib stopped looking at Zim's pak. it was flashing a dim red and looked like it had frozen over.

"Zim...is something wrong with y..your pak thing?"

"Huh" Zim questioned, momentarilly caught off guard, but finding himself instantly he glared.

"If you think you're going to distract me with such childish tactics then you are sadly mistaken you..."once again Zim paused. All expression left his face for a few moments before he regained himself.

He shook his head and placed a hand on top of it with a small groan "I...don't f..feel so g..good" he stated before falling to his knees. Dib rushed over to his side not quiet understanding why and hesitantly placed his hand on Zim's shoulder

"Zim" Dib whispered as he nudged him "You okay"

Zim stared up at him in confusion "W..who are you?" he asked

Dib gave him a confused and concerned look. Did Zim really not recognize him? What had happened? Dib grabbed his coat back off the ground and wrapped it around Zim who was shivering fearfully.

"For now" Dib said quietly "I'm your friend". Zim's expression softened, though he was still confused and he gave a small nod of understanding. Dib hadn't actually lied to him...after all they had called a truce and Dib had never gone back on his word.

It was actually alot easier when Zim couldn't remember him but then again if he couldn't remember anything then he wouldn't be of much use and what was worse was that it seemed that he was also becoming ill.

It had happened so quickly that it had left Dib somewhat stunned though he was curious now more than ever about Zim's pak. Not only did it seem to contain his memories but it also helped keep Zim healthy. Dib pondered this for a moment realizing he could use this against Zim later but he pushed the thought aside due to their current situation.

"I'm..c..cold" Zim said shivering

"It's okay Zim" Dib stated "Someone will find us soon"

"Zim?" Zim questioned "I am Zim?"

Dib smiled somewhat at his innocent question "Yep that's you...the almighty Zim" he stated stifling a laugh

"Then you are?"

"Dib" he answered with a nodd

Zim smiled which puzzled Dib. It wasn't an evil grin or a smug grin but an actually friendly and innocent one. It was as if Zim was a child and needed his protection and care. Dib was about to toss this thought aside when Zim pulled him into a warm hug, wrapping his thin arms around Dib's waist and burying his head into Dib's chest.

"The almighty Dib" Zim said smiling, his eyes closed contently

"Um...uh...yeah I guess" Dib said unsure of himself. A part of him wanted to pull away from the embrace but he couldn't. He hated to admit that he enjoyed the warmth of Zim's arms around him especially because of the temperature...or so he told himself.


(well here's the first chapter...sorry if i'm leaving stuff out...i hope u can catch up on their situation...lets just say they were on a class ski trip...zim and dib began fighting...dib chased after zim and lets assume there was some loud yelling which caused an avalanche...they fell and became trapped in a cave)
