YAY 2nd chapter up and running. Hope ya'll enjoy it. Added some randomness and serious-ness in there. Hope it's all right... Enjoy now
~Zim~
Now we enter Zim as he's traveling up the elevator to the kitchen for breaky. Gir was making what he dubbed his master's favorite: Waffles and bacon. Which Zim'll admit was his favorite, but only if Gir sticked to the recipe instead of adding soap to the mix.
Anyway I'm over explaining.
As Zim was traveling upward a little slowly, on purpose, he was thinking about a really weird dream he had last night. Now usually Zim could understand his dream like that. But this one was pretty strange. It involved blurry "I can't believe that's all I know" things. Such as, what he was positive, a person being threatened with a knife of some sort, someone crying, a kiss, and well with those things he could probably interpret pretty easily but the last part is what caught him off guard; Something about a mango?
Yes a mango. He was wonder what the hell that damned mango had to do with anything about his bizzaro dream.
"Damnit! What the hell could that cursed earth mango mean?" Zim asked himself as he retched the kitchen, only to be pelted with a syrup soaked waffle hit him right smack in the face.
He plucked off the waffle and had his PAK clean up the syrup still on him. He growled a little bit, watching his little robotic wonder dance around without his disguise and throwing ingredients into the waffle mixture. "GIR!" He yelled.
"Yes Master?" Gir said in his usual voice. "Gir would you stop throwing things? Wait.. What time is it?" Zim asked realizing that he did take a while up the elevator.
Gir then went into serious mode. "Sir the exact time is 7:59 A.M. Earth time." then a ding went off, "WAFFLES READY!" Gir said in his random voice again.
"What! I'll be late!" Zim exclaimed as he started heading for the door. "Wait Master! You forgot your waffles!" Gir called out. "Gir, I don't have time to eat waffles right now. Or else I'll be late for that horrible skool." Zim explained remembering he still needed to put on his disguise, so he started putting them on.
"But you can't skip out on waffles!" Gir exclaimed.
"Gir just because I've eating those things everyday for these horrible, what 6 earth years? Does not mean I can't skip out on one day without them." Zim tried to explain while also trying to get out the door.
"No is not that. You need waffles. They is lucky. You don't eat them today bad things'll happen today." Gir tried to explain to his favorite master.
Zim just let out a deep sigh. "Gir you've been reading those 'My Favorite Food Facts' with your techno music playing to loud again haven't you?" Zim asked his little weird sidekick.
"Maaaayybeee." Gir said in a giggle. "But really Masta you neeeeeeed your waffles." Gir said yet again. "I'll's go get some right now." Gir said as went back in the kitchen.
"Gir I don't have time for this!" Zim spat out while exiting the front door. Leaving Gir with his plate full of waffles confused on where his master went.
"Master? Oh well more waffles, good luck and techno for me!" Gir said while chomping down the plate full of waffles.

Zim started running to skool, but then started to slow his pace. Then he was walking, still thinking about his way too weird dream. Then his mind wondered to something else: The day he found out the truth about himself.
See what happened is, he found out that his mission was a fake and that he was a defective and the lovely little fact that he was the biggest laughing stock in his entire species. Which caused him to scowl at the memory and at himself.
See what happened is that one day Zim was doing research on how the other (real) invaders were doing in their part of the invasion. But he noticed something was off: His name wasn't on that list.
So being the curious little bugger he is, he searched his name. But unfortunately it was in the "Defective" list. And he was number one. Meaning he was the biggest one. So naturally he thought that it was a mistake, but he still looked under it. And then he found out everything. The fact that behind his back everyone of his race was laughing at him, the fact that he's the worst defective out there, the fact that his mission was a lie and that his own leaders sent him on a wild goose chase hoping that he'll die somewhere out the emptiness of space. I mean everything.
So the first couple of weeks was the hardest. He had more thoughts of suicide than Johnny. But because of Gir he never got around to it. The poor little thing wouldn't know what to do, and in fact Gir didn't know why his master was so depressed yet. (or knew that he was even depressed.) Until one day Gir found Zim with a knife pressed to his neck, about to slit it. Gir then screamed out "DON'T DO IT!" Then launched himself and took the knife away. Then after some help with Gir Zim got over his depression but now he's filled with pure anger and hatred, which Gir thinks is a good thing if he's not sad anymore.
So here's what Zim did: he shut off all communication with anyone. But he kept his earth phone, which he modified so no one could really trace his call, monitor(listen in on) his calls, and so he wouldn't have to pay any bills. And he decided since he's pretty much banished and the entire universe hates his race, he decided to live on Earth. At least he started getting used to living there. And at least only two people, and two people only, knew who he really was. But he ignored that thought.
Anyway all of what happened really ticked him off. So he had his PAK give him like a ice cold Irkan juice. It usually helped cool him off. Well that and thinking about all the good things that happened to him.
Like for one: He gained quit a bit of height. He know, proudly, reached 6'4" and was called the tallest kid in school. Which sorta made him feeling a bit too cocky. Thankfully no one really noticed. Then there was the fact that he realized that he was immune to any and all illness to any virus on this planet. Which made his germ phobia go away completely.
Then there was the fact that it was the planet where Gaz lived… 'Wait WHAT! How can I think like that? Why would I care about the Dib-sister?' Zim thought to himself. (thankfully)
Then he saw the hi-school coming up, and then he decided he better high tail it and get there before he was late.
Alright I got a tinsy winsy bit of ZaGr in there(I think) if you can find it I'll appreaciate it. So yeah just R&R and I'll be happy :)
