Hey there people! This is an Invader Zim idea that I had that actually came from an idea I got for a sequal to this. If I manage to make it through this one then I'll try the sequal which is sure to be hilarious since it involves Zim becomming a Daddy. I hope you'll all forgive me for using my sorta name as the name of a new character you'll see. But I wanted to do a nice 3 letter name like Zim Dib and Gaz and that was the first thing I thought of.
Well I hope you enjoy it! If not let me know why! I'm eager to improve my writing.
Filthy valentine's day… even though he and the earth Dib were no longer fighting every day, Dib had made a point of every year presenting Zim with a slab of earth meat. Usually by throwing it at his head. Zim was not about to let that happen this year. It took almost a full earth week for his face to repair itself after the meat fused to his skin. "Not this time." Zim assured himself.
After he had gotten the news that his mission was a fake, and had stood in front of the monitor for a week while the Tallest's words sunk in, Zim had immediately gone to the Dib human to announce he would no longer be trying to take over the planet. Dib of course had not believed him until after his saw Zim implode most of his super weapons. There was no point to keeping them; after all, the almighty Tallest said they would blow up the earth and Zim with it, if they ever heard from him again. Zim did not like the idea of blowing up.
Years past and Zim began to admit (though only to himself) that he was becoming attached to the strange little planet. This became all the more true after the Dib monkey had accepted Zim would no longer make any plots. Since then the two of them had even shared meals with one another talking all sciencey and stuff. Zim wasn't the best at paying attention, but when it came to mechanics and science he was more than capable by human standards.
"Well that's enough thinking of the past," Zim said to GIR as he packed up the last of his defensive weaponry. "With this stuff neither the humans nor the Dib monkey will be able to touch me with their filthy earth meat. GIR stay here and guard the house!" And with that Zim headed to another day of skool.
Along the way it started to rain lightly. Zim was not worried though. He had mostly adjusted to life on Earth. The water no longer pained him like it used to, making a light paste bath eliminate the problem completely. That was not the only changes the planet had caused on his Irken physiology. By now he was the height of a human teenager which was very tall for an Irken but still shorter than the almighty Tallest.
Arriving at the skool Zim cringed at the humans who were exchanging slabs of meat with one another. Seeing the meat made him feel sick. Just then his PAK activated and with the supplies in his bag vaporized the meaty projectile. "Dib! You didn't really think I would let you get away with it again did you!?" He turned to face his assailant.
"Sorry my cousin told me that you guys had a tradition of throwing meat on Valentine's Day. Nice laser." Dib walked up next to the human girl that had spoken.
"Chill Zim," Dib said smiling, "This is the last time. I just couldn't resist since my cousin was transferring in today."
"Very well Dib… OH MY GOD IS THAT BIG FOOT?!" Zim pointed and yelled.
"Where!?" And as fast as Dib had turned his still freakishly large head a slab of meat had smashed into the back of it.
His cousin and Zim laughed as Dib pulled BBQ covered ribs off the back of his head.
"Nice one." She high-fived Zim. "Your name is Zim right? I'm Kameron but call me Kam."
"Nice to meet you Kam. I am the normal human boy, and not an alien, Zim." Zim said shaking Kam's hand.
"Ok cool. Dib was going to show me to the office but he's busy scraping BBQ off his head. Mind showing me the way?" She laughed when a bird started pecking at the back of Dibs head for the juicy sauce. Her laugh was strangely different than that of most humans. Not all evil and mocking.
"It would be my pleasure," Zim said while thinking of all the ways he could humiliate Dib in front of his cousin. The two of them headed inside, leaving Dib to defend himself against the large eyed dog that was now sniffing the ribs on the ground.
