A.N. Even though I never really got into the series (due to the amount of gross and violent moments) I had always been fond of the main characters, and so wanted to write a story about them. One thing I always wondered was: how would Zim react if he found out the truth about what the Tallest think of him? This is my version of what would happen. Though I didn't see many episodes, I did do research online so that I could make everything as true to the series as possible. The story might be milder than the show, though I did try to add some violence to make it truer to the series (it's probably a lame attempt too since I hate violence - oh well). Invader Zim fans, please forgive me if this turns out to be untrue to the series.
Time had passed and except for ages and moving up the next grades not much had changed. Zim continued his attempts to take over Earth, and Dib continued to stop him, helped by Gaz whenever Zim's actions interfered with her life. As usual, no one else caught on to Zim being an alien and Dib continued failing to prove it. One small change in Zim's schedule however was going to cause big changes among all three characters.
One day, Zim began a plan so involved that it caused him to stay up very late. Don't bother asking me to explain the plan, because it's too complicated for me to understand it, but basically he was going to attempt to mind-control the teachers. Eventually, he became too exhausted to continue so he quit for the night and reported to the Tallest. He gave a quick explanation to the Tallest and then went to bed. But, since he was so tired, he forgot to turn off his end of the TV! This meant that while the Tallest couldn't see Zim, he could see them. The Tallest didn't know about this and started talking amongst themselves as they got ready to turn in for the night...
