AN: Character death and suicide.

White Noise

(Zim)

Hacking my communications again aren't you Dib? Well I'm not letting you in. I'm the only irken you'll ever have to study. I'm going to make this battle last as long as I can. I have no mission but to survive now. You are a worthy opponent and I will fight valiantly. Although you will one day capture me if I am careless.

My world is broken you see. The edges are torn and frayed and everything is black and white and gray. There is nothing left for me but you. Without you there is not even white in my life. You are my lighthouse, my beacon, my guiding light. Without you I am nothing.

I need you Dib so you see I can't give in just yet. Please understand that once even this loses meaning I'll give in to your wishes. But I won't stop until then. I don't even know why I'm telling you all this. It doesn't matter.

"That's very interesting Zim but I'm right here." He turns with shock on his face. I grab him and throw him down, he doesn't even fight. He just looks up at me and laughs with tears in his eyes. "I didn't come here to kill you Zim." He seems to be having a nervous breakdown so I slap him and he comes back to his senses. "I'm sick of living in torment Zim."

He looks at me curiously. "kill me..please?" His eyes go wide with shock at my soft plea. I don't want to live anymore. Nobody cares about me but him so it only makes sense that he can offer me reprieve. I bury my face in his chest. "I can't take it anymore. Just living in general has become torture to me." He kisses my forehead.

"Would you die with Zim?" I nod at his question and without another words he sends a spider leg through both of us. Then comes the electricity but someone else is here and they're screaming. Gaz came to rescue me again it seems. I'd forgotten that tonight was family night. She's yelling at me and screaming at me for being stupid but my life is fading and the light in Zim's eyes is growing dim. He is all I see as the pain courses through my body with the lightning he's creating. And as we die together all I hear is static and white noise.
