So, this is my first published fanfic, huh? Yay! ^^

BTW, this takes place during Halloween Spectacular of Spooky Doom. Watch the episode if you don't remember.

With that being said, enjoy! :)

Wait, what?

"I'm not here because I like you, Dib; I'm here for your filthy gargantuan head!" Zim shouted.

"Oh, so now it's gargantuan?" Dib questioned, clearly annoyed by the new description of his head. There was a short pause of the two enemies glaring at each other with their eyes occasionally twitching. Suddenly, Dib's eyes widened at the statement.

"Wait a minute," Dib started, cocking an eyebrow, "'because I like you'? Does that mean you actually like me?" The irken narrowed his eyes at the human and scooted farther back into the cockpit that strangely resembled a face, acting as if he was trying to escape the question rather than answer it.

Dib was opened his mouth to continue when he was interrupted by Zim hollering "Lies!" and squinted one contacted eye in doing so. However, Zim was actually lying to himself-and he knew it, even though he'd never accepted it. For a while now, the irken with a huge ego could say he hated 'the Dib' a million times, but a feeling would gnaw deep in his squeedliy spooch that said 'no'. He hated this feeling more than he hated humans and he always pushed back into the bottomless hole it crawled out of. Dib was his sworn enemy! Zim came to destroy the earth while Dib came to save it.

After the rude outburst, the paranormal investigator resumed what he was about to say like Zim hadn't said anything, "I don't mean like 'like-like', that would just be weird and really gross." They both looked away from the other and shivered in disgust at such a horrible thought, with Zim sticking out his worm-like tongue. Once Dib managed to hold down whatever he was about to puke up, he kept going, "So, if you wiped out the human race, not like I'm not going to stop that from happening, would you let me live?"

Zim cocked an eyebrow at Dib, looking at him like he really was crazy in response. That's when he asked a question that they both didn't want answered. "Does that mean…" Dib said with his light brown eyes that began to widen. Zim's squint was doing the same. "…we could be friends?" At this point, the green alien's eyes were so wide, his contacts nearly popped out. Dib's eyes were just as huge, almost pushing his glasses of his face.

There was a long, thick silence between them, until they started shouting at the same time, drowning out each other's words.

"You smell of human!"

"My head's not big!" Having the insults said, Zim adjusted a lever that made the slim, metallic arms clutching Dib move toward the back of the odd robot thing.


And you should know what happened after that. Please tell me what you think! Sorry about the shortness. My pinkie promises more stories to come!
