I forgot to add the disclaimer: I do not own Invader Zim or make any money off of this fanfiction.
The day had started normally enough for Dib. He had woken up right after the sun had come up, cuddled in his mate's arms, Zim purring as he held Dib closer. The human had always loved how his owner sounded when he slept. The human had carefully removed himself from the alien's grip, put on some clothes that he always kept at his bedside for these moments and slowly walked down the stairs to the kitchen to start breakfast. It wasn't something that Gir could be responsible for.
"Watcha makin Mary?" The metal robot screeched as he ran into the kitchen.
"Eggs and cookies" The adult replied. Girl began to jump up and down at the menu.
"Oooh! I want one! Gimme! Gimme!" Dib chuckled a bit as he watched the small robot jump hysterically up and down.
"Alright, I'll give you and egg but you have to take care of it. It's like a baby, you don't want to drop it." The Spikey haired man carefully gave the android a raw egg which Gir immediately began to lovingly rub on his face before running off screaming "You're my baby Peggy!" Dib shook his head.
The adult proceeded to crack the eggs in the pan and get out the ingredients to make the cookies. Zim would be up soon. His Master didn't need to sleep but he always tried to sleep for a few hours a night for Dib's sake, though admittedly, there wasn't much sleeping going on. Last night was actually one of the night where they did just sleep. Poor Zim, he had so many responsibilities.
The adult stirred the batter as he walked in the living room. Dib inwardly winced at the image the greeted him. His signature spike had dropped a little from not having any gel applied to it. His lean muscled body was littered with small zipper looking bruises from the love bites. The collar that was tattooed around his neck with Zim's name on it in Irkan was still dark and deep. His tattooed shackles on his wrists also didn't appear to need any new ink. His too large for him night shirt hung off of his shoulders and past his boxers. Ok, so he didn't look that bad but he hated it when his hair was out of order. The black haired human put the bowl of batter down on the kitchen counter, made sure that the eggs could take a few more minutes before burning, and ran into the bathroom to quickly apply his hair gel.
Once he was sure that his hair was in order Dib washed his hands and returned to the kitchen. He gave a mental sigh of relief. Gir hadn't stolen his batter this time. He heard Zim making his way down the stairs.
"Dib-Pet, what's that smell? Do not tell me that you are cooking meat!" Dib turned to be met with the paranoid red eyes of his Irkan Master. Zim usually wasn't paranoid anymore but when it came to food he still retained some of that personality. It was hard to believe that Zim had grown taller than him, especially when the alien used to be so puny as a kid. Dib stood at 5'9 while Zim stood at a solid 6 feet. The alien's muscle was also lean but very powerful. His skin was a small shade lighter but still green.
"Please you know I don't cook meat anymore." The human scoffed as he flipped the eggs out of the pan and onto a plate. The alien easily took it and sat down.
"So you say." Dib looked at his Master.
"So I know." A smirk came over the alien's face as he held up his three fingers and made a "come here" motion. The human walked over without thinking. Zim gave a light tug to the spike pulling their lips together. The two battled with their tongues for a moment. It took all of Dib's will power to avoid shivering in pleasure as that reptilian tongue swirled around his mouth.
"Good Morning Dib-Mate"
"Morning Master."
Dib put the cookies in the oven and got his own egg. The two sat down at the table eating peacefully.
"Stupid Hyuumans! Why don't they understand the GREATNESS that is ZIM! They want me to go over paper work!" The Irkan complained to his pet as he began shoveling the eggs into his mouth. Dib nodded in agreement. He knew how hard it was to do the paperwork and read over their treaties because Zim usually gave him that responsibility. By all means he should be the one complaining.
"It might be for the best though. There is no way that you could monitor all of the countries at once."
"Oh ho! Yes, That's it! They should not underestimate ZIM! Dib- Pet you have given me an idea worthy of my time! Computer make a nano bug!" Zim yelled out into the air.
"Do I have to?" The lazy voice of the computer asked.
"YES!" Zim and Dib both yelled together.
"Oh, yeah…..there's also an intruder….." The computer mumbled before the sound of the door opening and slamming shut rang through the house. The two occupants at the table heard a strangely familiar voice begin to rant.
"Stupid Dib-Stink! How dare his house defy me and not be there! No matter! I will return to my time with my own house! Take that Dib-Trash! Computer what happened to the lawn gnomes!"
"Oh….lovely…..there's two of them." The computer stated.
The older Irkan rose from the table. This was just too odd. It didn't matter though. All intruders must be dealt with, Dib followed his Master to see a younger version of Zim marching through the living room, taking everything in with new eyes. He was sure this was his house but everything was different.
"Have you been experimenting with clones again?" Dib asked as he poked his Owner.
"Of Course Not! Zim would not be so stupid as to go through that again!" The older Irkan yelled in his normal way of talking.
The younger version stopped, magenta eyes immediately going to the doorway of the kitchen. He stood there as if he was in shock for a moment before unleashing a yell of rage.
"Who are you! What are you doing in my house and…..how did you get so tall…." The yell soon turned into a look of pure awe at the height. This awe was broken not a second later by the door being opened again and rapid footsteps could be heard.
"Ha! I crawled out of the trashcan Space-boy! You will never stop me now!" The familiar voice yelled as a younger version of Dib came into view and tackled the younger version of Zim.
"Oh my Mysterious Mysteries." The older Dib gasped as he watched the two fight. The older Irkan was strangely calm about the whole thing as he watched the two roll around.
"Dib-Pet clear my schedule for today" The human nodded as he went into the office and cleared the schedule on the computer. It was quite a shock but the human inwardly snickered when he heard a loud yell of..
"I AM ZIM! SUPREME OVERLORD OF THE WORLD! YOU ARE VIOLATING MY PROPERTY! STOP ATTACKING EACH OTHER YOU STUPID EARTH MONKEYS!"
The older Dib shook his head. What on Earth was going on? He had a feeling that these younger counter parts would not like the way their futures had gone, in fact, in his own counterpart's eyes, he could guarantee it.
Here it is. Chapter #2. Thanks to everyone who reviewed and who reviews. Peace!
