Chapter two

Dark Designs

Gir chuckled softly as he cleaned his blades. He had four knives now.

Zim's knife; a typical Irken knife with a violet handle with various designs spread across it. The blade itself was straight with a curved end, making the small dagger look like a mini-cutlass.

The other three knives were from the Membrane's house. One was a large kitchen knife- nothing more, nothing less.

Another was Professor Membrane's surgery scalpel; a long handle with a short blade.

Who knows? Gir thought. I might need it to scalp someone.

The fourth was a butterfly knife he had found in Gaz's bedroom. The twirling patterns one could draw in the air with the blade particularly fascinated the little robot.

After cleaning the blades Gir considered his position. He was currently in an ally with four blades, and he was covered in blood. He drew out a small machine from his chest and was bathed in the glow of laser light. In a matter of seconds, the blood had been vaporized.

Gir stood and trudged back to Zim's base. Gir's house now. Gir walked calmly down the street, pausing to glance at house number 777, only a few houses away from his. It had been completely empty for as long as Gir could remember. Suddenly, he dodged back in time to avoid a car screech past and pull into the driveway. Gir watched as an incredibly skinny man stepped out.

The man sighed.

"Home again." He muttered. "Well, desensitization's a bust. I suppose there are other ways to maintain my insanity."

Glad to see you've come around Nny! Giggled a creature that materialized out of thin air. I was afraid that you'd keep on trying.

The man, Nny shrugged.

"Yeah." He turned towards the house next door to him and saw Gir watching him.

"Hi there!" Johnny waved to Gir.

Gir would have raised an eyebrow if he had one.

"Hello…" He muttered. "You live there?"

Johnny nodded cheerfully. "Yep!"

Gir shrugged. "'Kay." He turned in time to witness the base explode.

"Oh yeah… That's right… Base is set to self-destruct if Invader is killed." Gir facepalmed. "Now where am I gonna live?"

Nny tilted his head to one side. "Well… You seem like a nice little robot-thing, so I suppose you could stay with me.

Gir was more than a little surprised but he jumped at the chance. Literally.

"R-really!"

"Of course!" Nny grinned. "Just let me unlock the door…" He did so, and stood back to allow Gir past.

"I need to visit someone for a second, but I'll be right back." Nny said, and then turned around to the house next door.

He silently walked over to the window and tapped lightly on it.

Silence.

He tapped again, a bit harder this time.

Silence.

He knocked on the window.

Silence was obstinate in its presence.

Johnny swiftly opened the window and crept in. He froze at what he saw. The room had been totally redone. It looked more like a little girl's room now.

In the corner, there was a bright pink bed, with a wide eyed little girl sitting there, a look of sheer terror in her eyes.

"Shhh." Nny whispered gently. "What's your name?"

"I-I'm…Mary…"

"Mary Casil, by any chance?"

The girl nodded.

Johnny smiled. The little girl was like a long-haired version of Squee, with a little teddy bear even. It was similar to Shmee, in the sense that it always seemed to either be staring at you, or laughing.

"Do you know a little boy named Squee?"

"Umm… Mommy calls me Squee sometimes…"

Nny growled. They still hadn't gotten Squee back? It had been five years. Squee had to be a teenager by now!

"Squee… He's your big brother." Nny said absentmindedly.

"I have a brother?" Mary asked in shock, big eyes going wide.

Nny smiled gently at her.

"Would you like to meet him?" He asked.

The little girl nodded furiously, and got up, clinging to her little teddy bear.

"Okay… Let me just let my friends know, okay?" He said to her, before heading into his own house.

"Hey, what's your name?" He asked the robot on his couch.

"Gir."

"Listen Gir, I need to go out for a bit, I'll be back in a while."

Swiftly he walked back to house number 775 where Mary was waiting.

"Are you ready?" He asked her.

"Y-yes" She squeaked nervously.

"Okay then." He lifted the tiny girl up and carried her to his car.

"Buckle up." He advised.

And with that, he started the car and floored the gas pedal. With a roar, the car tore off towards the Defective Head Meat Institute.

When they arrived, Mary was a nervous wreck from the drive. He walked in the doors with the tiny girl clinging to his hand.

He walked up to the desk and waited for the young receptionist to finish whatever business she was conducting on her phone.

"Yes Mrs. Wolsh. It is true that sometimes, highly gifted and intelligent children do appear to be stupid, but there is a possibility that your child may actually be stupid, have you considered that? There was a pause. "Yes I realize that this is a very unhappy possibility for you, but if the latter is true, there is little that can be done." Another pause. "Thank you. Goodbye."

The young lady sighed and put the phone down.

"Bloody night job." She muttered. "How may I help you?"

Johnny raised an eyebrow at the conversation on the phone, but decided to overlook it.

"We're here to visit Todd Casil."

"I see. Are you family?"

"This is her sister." He said, gesturing to Mary.

"I see. And what about you?"

"Uh, no…"

"Friend then?"

Johnny decided to give it a go. "Yes."

The receptionist checked her computer.

"There will be a guard here to escort you in a moment…"

The guard came in then and politely led Nny to Squee's room.

"Just don't get too close." The guard said sarcastically. "Not that I think he could do anything to you, I just have to say that to everybody."

Nny shrugged and led Mary in.

"Oh, Squeegee…" He called to the boy sitting in the corner.

Squee sat bolt upright.

"NNY?" He gasped, actually happy to see the scary neighbor man.

"How's it goin here in the DHMI?" Nny asked, kneeling down by the little boy.

Squee gave a sad smile. "I think I'm crazier now than when I first came in here." He shrugged. "The guards are a little scary sometimes, but aside from that, totally boring." He looked at the little girl hiding behind Nny.

"Who-"

"This is Mary." Nny said sadly. "She's… your sister."
