After this, there won't be an update till the Monday after next; I'm going on vacation for a week. SORRY!

Love Blossoms

Gaz POV

She had been walking aimlessly for hours; but now she finally new where she was. Five years ago on this very spot, she traveled to a world of pork to lose the horrible curse that her brother placed on her. She chuckled at the memory of Dib cleaning a giant toilet. She was thankful for these memories. Even though they weren't so great, memories were the only things she had left. She saw someone move by the edge. She looked a bit closer and saw a familiar green face.

Zim POV

… But a curious voice stopped him.

"Zim?"

Taken aback, he tripped over the edge; but a soft hand caught him.

"Are you ok?" She asked worriedly.

"I would have been a lot better if you didn't do that." He replied crossly.

Gaz POV

What's wrong with him today? She thought.

"What is wrong with you today?" She asked. "Everything; now if you excuse me, Zim has a cliff to jump off." He started to walk over to the edge. WHAT! "You are NOT going to kill yourself!" She shouted.

"Watch me." He said darkly.

She didn't know what else to do; she couldn't just let him die. She launched herself at him.

"What has gotten into you lately!"

"Pain; pain beyond endurance." He replied.

This hade her angrier then anything else he could of said. Pain! He has no idea what the word means!

"What sort of tortures does the mighty invader Zim have to cope with? A singing dancing robot, a failed plan, or maybe the fact that life isn't perfect!" she was furious.

Zim POV

She didn't understand what he was going through; no one did.

"Not mighty invader, just Zim."

"What?" she asked surprised.

"My leaders lied to me. I'm not an invader. They sent me out here is the hope I'd die. Zim has been banished from his home planet. There is no mission; just an exile."

Gaz POV

Nothing could have prepared her for this moment. He had gone through exactly what she has; abandonment. . Zim had been banished; stripped of everything he ever cared about, and forced to remain in a place he is unwelcome. She had been forced from her home without someone to care for her.

"That, horrible!"

"Now enough of my troubles, why are you here?" he asked.

He had trusted that information to her; he deserved to know what happened to her.

"He put us up for adoption. When he told us when he came from work, I ran away."

Zim POV

He was unable to hide the looks of horror on his face. How could a father do that? Put his children in an orphanage, when he was perfectly capable to look after them. They're teens, they'll never be adopted! He knows that! How could he be so cruel! At least I did something wrong; I brought death upon two almighty tallest, and ruined a military operation. They did nothing wrong! They don't deserve this…

"That's monstrous!"

Gaz POV

Well what do you know! Zim finally cares for someone other then himself. Maybe he isn't so bad after all. Then a though struck her,

"The way you talked, I would have thought you were a hero to your people."

There was an uncomfortable silence. Uh-oh, I think I might of just crossed the line.

"Zim? Are you there?"

Zim POV

He responded, "Many years ago, I was a hero. I was the great General Ven. I lead the irken troops into war. I won my planet many battles. I was the greatest solder Irk had ever known. Then they started operation impending doom; finally I understood what they were trying to do. I panicked; this was not what I meant to happen. I only fought to protect, not to destroy. When I tried to talk sense into the tallests, they thought me as a traitor. They stripped me of my general status, and changed my name to Zim. Zim in Irken means traitor or mutiny. They sent me back to military training again, this time, not as a solder; I had proved my unworthiness; but as an elite. Again, I was doing superbly, and was chosen as an invader. When operation impending doom started, I cracked; I remembered why I was there. I purposely ruined it. They banished me to food-courtia. I escaped and begged them for another chance. They lied about my mission, and here I am; banished once again."

Gaz POV

His voice was dark and forbidding. She was shocked; Zim's past was much worse then anything she could have imagined. Betrayed by those who he gave his life to protect. Her eyes were swimming with tears; it was too horrible to even think about.

"I- I never new." She stammered.

"No on has ever understood me like you, Gaz."

They starred deeply in to each others eyes, both thinking the same thing. They leaned closer and closer to each other; then finally, their lips met.

Awww… HOW SWEET! I shall be in Canada for a week, so there shall be no updating. MOOSES HERE I COME! ! ! ! !
