Do I own iz? Nay, I am but a worthless human worm baby caving into my fangirlish desires
...
An incessant, annoying shrill reverberated in Gaz's room. She hated how the walls between her and Dib's room were so paper thin.
"Gaz! I just installed some spy cams so I count monitor Zim's every move like the paranoid weirdo I am!
Gaz's only response was a grunt.
"And Zim has not come out of his house for at least a month! This has to mean something! Just what is he planning?"
Gaz grunted, again. Only more aggressively.
She tapped a bit harder at her game controls.
"I tried to remember what Zim was doing last I saw him and he seemed perfectly normal! I think We should take turns monitoring Zim's house in case anything weird happens! Whatdya say?"
She pounded the buttons even harder, they seemed to emit a rumbling sound as she did so.
"wait Gaz! maybe I should stay here and look out while you keep up appearances at school—"
"SHUT UP DIB!" Gaz finally bellowed as she punched the wall beside her bed.
She heard Dib shriek in surprise, and a thud that came after—he must have fallen painfully. She gave a small grin knowing she had earned herself some peace and quiet.
She resumed playing, thankful that her swift albeit risky action did not make her lose the game. So what if Zim stopped bothering them? It meant she would actually have time to live her life and not be dragged around by her brother every time Zim did so much as breathe. She was actually fine with Dib being cooped up in his room for a couple of days (or, she hoped it would be a couple of days. Any longer and Dib would stink up the house) She actually had a lot of catching up to do in the gaming world, and she had been meaning to get into something called "online gaming".
Suddenly, Professor membrane barged through Gaz's door, "Daughter! Something has gone terribly awry in the time space continuum!"
Gaz hardly looked up from her controller as she sat on the bed and said nonchalantly, "aw man, that stinks dad."
Professor membrane continued,his fist trembling in emphasis, "A nearby black hole collided with another black hole, and its anti-energy waves finally hit our galactic region! It's effects majorly slow down the passage of time while still at the same time, advancing it forward!"
Gaz finally paused her game and looked up at her father in confusion, "so...does this mean the human race is doomed or…?"
"think of it as if we were cartoons, and we were put into a dreadful hiatus! Time is advancing and yet we will remain the same, but to what extent, I still do not know! I am telling you this because The crawling effects can literally stretch our bodies into proportions so horrifying, our appearances will permanently change! So I want you to wear these special collars around your wrists so you can have minimal damage, okay honey? Come see me if you feel as if you'll implode." Professor membrane ended in an oddly fatherly manner. He stepped out of the room and swiftly made his way to Dib's room, most likely to spew the same stuff Gaz certainly already forgot.
She returned to her game, shaking her head. Why did all the guys in her life have to be so… weird? and dramatic? She loved her father but honestly, Membrane and Dib were so much alike. She swears Dib's like a clone of him sometimes…
The ninja rabbit managed to dodge the projectile from king firefly, and he landed a final blow on the beast with his mighty sword. The king cried in agony and dissolved like snow. The rabbit, wounded but relieved, made his way to the child locked in the cage. The young prince looked out from the bars, and shrieked, " You have come!"
The ninja sighed in relief and began to cry, "Let us go home, my brother! Mother and Father will be expecting our return!"
But the young prince began to laugh… youthfully, then flatly, then… menacingly.
"Your brother? oh you poor fool," the prince now grumbling in the voice of a man, "You just killed him! what stands before you is my perfect disguise as him! Think of it! I return home alone, and say, 'father! mother! I am all that is left of your kin. My dearest brother DIED trying to save me!"
The ninja cried out, "No! NO! YOU COULDN'T HAVE- YOU WON'T! HAVE AT THEE!"
And the scene cut to black, the game credits rolling.
Gaz sat dumbfounded at the ending. That couldn't have been the end! She mouthed a "woah" and breathlessly stared at the crawling names across the screen. This game honestly rivaled Vampire Piggy Slayer 2 for her favorite game series of all time. She could not wait for the sequel to come out next summer—
Next summer.
The black hole waves.
How long until next summer? months? YEARS?
Gaz nearly crushed her Game slave 3 in fury, she grit her teeth and gave out a low growl. She shook and the world around her grew dark, an unholy ethereal flame emitted from the very depths of her soul.
"CURSE YOU STUPID HIATUS WAVES! CURSE YOU!"

Heya! So, this is not only my first iz fic, but also my first attempt at a multi-chapter fanfic! WHEW! Scary territory for me haha.
So I wanted to start by plugging in some stuff in the comics like an explanation for the irl hiatus in iz, and the interactions between Gaz and Zim in the comics so far. I want to set up what they have between each other so far as the foundation for the actual plot, which is where Gaz is in her teens. I don't really wanna jump into the romantic plot out of fear that it'll make the development seem ooc. I'm really just experimenting here, so please leave a review and tell me if you like it so far! Any constructive criticism helps. :D see ya till then!
