(Disclaimer: i own nothing of invader zim just this story, invader Zim belongs to Jhonen Vasquez)

the defectives

Zim sat there on the couch unmoving his eyes closed, holding a storage cube he stole from Dib's house. Gir was right beside him, his usual loudmouth idiotic excuse of a robot self unmoving the same as his master. Zim eyes were closed thinking back to his last call from the tallest.

2 days ago

Zim stood in the comunications room awaiting the call from the tallest, he was escatic, he was wondering what they needed or would they promote him yes the idea appealed to him or better yet he would finally receive his tanks which he has asked for so long. So that he could finally destroy this worthless excuse of a planet to finally vaporize dib and the other stink humans on this ball of dirt, finally the comlink came through "greeting's my tallest!"saluted Zim.

Red looked angry while Purple was merely smirking "Zim we need to tell you something very important" replied Purple still holding that evil smirk of his "Zim it has come to this decision is that ….. your a defective"........ "Wh... what" Zim said now confused "DONT YOU GET IT YOUR DEFECTIVE" Purple roared, he looked crazed.

"YOUR NOTHING" spat Red

"your just been a disgrace to the armada, the irken race" Purple continued with venom in his voice

"your just a thorn at our sides" Red's voice wasnt loud it was cold "we've sent two of our soldiers to take you away so that your PAK will be deactivated" Red finished looking highly satisfied

"end transmission" stated Purple to the irken navigators around him, the screen went black Zim just stood there distraught then anger emanating through his body.

present time

Zim finally stood up from his couch bringing himself back from his thoughts he gazed at the room at nothing in paticular "come Gir" said Zim activating a button on his wrist watch he had made after the tallest called him. As soon as he pushed it he no longer looked like himself, not using the dorky wig and contact lenses anymore he looked like a human now. His invader uniform replaced with a blood red long sleeved shirt, under a light grey hoodie with its sleeves cut off. It sported a design of a silver swirling line dragon, he wore stonewashed baggy black jeans with cool looking silver skull shoes. His hair was jet black and naturally spiky, coming down in bangs and up in the top. His eyes looked normal … if you count the iris in both eyes being blood red. Gir changed too he now looked like a black and white pitbull, and whatever he said sounded like a dogs barking, growling and whimpering

As Zim stepped out of the house he gave it one last fleeting look before he shut the door, walking away he pressed another button on his watch as soon as he and Gir were out of that cul-de-sac. He heard the explosion meaning that his base had just self destruct, he scowled putting on silver plastic shades with fire color eyepieces.

"lets go....... and begin anew Gir"
