I sighed, the heat still in my cheeks. I frowned, pursing my lips; I looked over to the invader that sat beside me. His eyes were focused on the board in mock attention, and the only reason I would say mock is because I could tell he wasn't paying attention. However, that wasn't why I was annoyed. Sitting on the other side of me was the human I met earlier, Dib. I looked over at him, making direct eye contact with him. This startled me, causing me to flinch in my seat. "Why're you looking at me like that?" I uttered in a harsh whisper.

"You're not normal are you?"

"Heh?"

"Just the way you speak, the way you look. It's all so similar!"

"Similar to what exactly?" I narrowed my eyes.

"Him!" He pointed to Zim who now had averted his eyes from the board to us.

My cheeks heated up again as I glanced at him. "Well, we did know each other before each of us moved here."

His jaw dropped. "You-! You're a-"

"A what? Just a normal student who happens to know another student?"

He suddenly screamed and ran out of the room.

I turned to Zim. "Do you know him?"

"Unfortunately yes, and you've just got yourself another stalker."

"Heh?"

"He's knows what I am, and now he knows what you are."

"Aw, slark, me and my big mouth!" I sank in my desk. "How much does he know?"

Zim huffed. "Too much."

I groaned. "And now I've got two knowledgeable people who want me dead, hunting me." I crossed my arms on my desk and laid my head on them. "My life is horrible."

"Not exactly..."

"No, really?" I spat, sarcasm dripping off every word. "I'm being hunted by a resistance and now a human! Life couldn't get any worse! And the only thing is that my ship is broken so I can't even leave this stupid dirtball of a planet!" I glanced up at the clock. '15 more minutes...' I sighed and relaxed, trying to enjoy what little serenity was left of my life.

Suddenly, I had a hand shaking me. I grabbed it and opened my eyes, glaring at the person. "What?"

"You fell asleep..." Zim took his hand away. "Besides, schools over now."

I sat up straight and looked at the clock, then the empty classroom. "Oh..." I picked up the textbook I was given and stood up, tucking the reading material under my arm. "Well, did we have any homework?"

"No, you got lucky today." He grinned.

"Good, could you help me find my locker?"

"Sure, what number is it?"

"295 I think it was."

Zim's jaw unhinged.

I giggled at his expression.

"And I thought having two classes together was weird, but now her locker is right next to mine." He began to mumble to himself.

I looked at him with a puzzled expression.

He saw this and quickly composed himself. Clearing his throat he motioned for me to follow him. "Come with me."

I followed him out the door and into the hallway. Looking around, I noticed that the hall was completely empty. Nothing roamed or stirred. "Everybody's left already?"

"Yeah, practically everybody has to catch a bus or something, So, I just wait a couple minutes and it completely barren."

I nodded, but stopped, hearing something. "Not completely." I tugged on Zim's arm, motioning for him to follow. "We have a stalker."I pulled him around the next corner and pressed myself against the wall. Pushing towards the edge, I peered out into the hall. And sure enough, Dib emerged out from behind a garbage can. I ducked back in behind the wall. "It's Dib."

"As one would expect."

I thought for a moment. "Which way do we have to go to get to your locker?"

He pointed to the other length of the hallway on the other side. "It's down there."

"Hm, okay, that works, but we have to be quick."

He nodded.

I grabbed his hand and we disappeared, reappearing on the other side. Then I felt him drag me along. I got my footing and jogged up beside him. He stopped suddenly, pulling me back. I tripped and fell against the lockers with a bang. "Oww..." I stood up straight and rubbed my head, pulling my hand away from his.

"Well, it's not my fault you don't react fast enough." He began to fiddle with his lock.

"I have good reaction time, it's just your actions are so unpredictable."

"That's because I'm amazing."

I rolled my eyes. Looking at the locker beside me, I read the number. "295. So this is my locker" I looked it over, noticing it didn't have a lock. "Hm, no lock."

"You can keep your stuff in mine until we get you one."

"Okay, thanks." I handed him my textbook and he placed it on a shelf. I smiled at him as he shut the locker and locked it. "Shall we go?" Not waiting for a reply, I marched over to the nearest exit.
