Harry slowly opened his eyes and cast a look around confused by what he saw. Then slowly like his soul was trying to keep them back his memory of the past few weeks came leaking to the forefront of his mind.

All it took was Dudley saying Harry had become friends with freaks, with Zim and Dib. How Harry was now talking back to Dudley at school and how the freaks were humiliating Dudley.

That was all it took.

Harry had gotten home from Skool one Friday, Petunia and Dudley were gone and Vernon had grabbed him and tossed him into the basement making Harry fall down the stairs knocking him out on one of the steps. Harry didn't remember anything after that.

Zim and Dib got worried three days of not seeing Harry and Dudley has gotten strange real strange. So Zim and Dib are braking into their house tonight. They snuck in from a cracked window in the kitchen and have a look around; they looked all throughout the house until the only place they overlooked was the basement.

Zim and Dib traded uneasy looks and slowly opened the door. A musty coppery odder rose up slowly and the darkness seemed to be reaching for them, trying to drag them down into their horrifying depths. They slowly inched their way down the steps until Dib, who was running his hands along the wall, turned on the light.

What greeted them would be burned into their minds for the rest of their lives.

There chained to a chair was an almost unrecognizable Harry. His right eye was a black gasping pit that slowly leaked blood and puss; Harry was wearing nothing but shorts that where stained forever with all of the dried blood, there on this chest you could see that his whole body was black and blue and a sickly yellow from all the bruises. Deep lacerations cut into his chest that where still creating rivers of blood down to the floor. Harry's Hands, legs, feet, and arms looked to be broken in many places and where sticking out of his skin the way metal would from a crushed car.

Dib froze in shock and horror and he lurched to the side to puke. Zim to was horrified but he had seen death before, he may have been a failure as an invader but he had still seen his fellow Irkain's stain planets with their blood.

Zim reacted quickly, he lurched forward and almost slid on the pools of blood on the concert floor but he righted himself quickly and checked to make sure his friend was still breathing. And there so very faint that he almost missed it was the slow beat of Harry's heart. Zim contacted his base and called in back up.

_BRAKE IN LINE_

Harry looked around; he was naked which he really didn't want to think about at that moment. It seemed that he was suspended in mid-air and he was hooked up to what felt like hundreds of soft tubes. The only light was a slow pale flashing green light. Harry tried to move and realized he was immobile and as Harry started to panic a harsh beeping pierced the quite room. A door was slammed open and light flooded the room, Harry quickly took in the room and realized that the tubes he was wrapped up in only took up one half of the room.

Zim and Dib rushed into the room and Harry smiled at them,

"So uh hi guys what's going on, and you look like shit by the way" Harry than blinked and wondered why his voice was so rough and sounds like he hasn't talked in a week or so.

Zim rushed over to a panel that came down from the wall and pushed a few buttons. Harry was quietly and safely taken to the floor and as he tried to stand his knees buckled and he crashed to the ground. As he sat up Dib and Zim where right there and that's when Harry realized that something was very wrong, "Zim what happened to my arms, and legs?" Harry questioned slightly panicking. Zim glanced down at the mentioned appendages and he slightly hesitated before replying,

"Zim is not sure what to tell you until you answer Zim's question. Does Harry remember what happened to him?"

Harry froze before closing his eyes and nodding slowly

"I was in and out of conciseness a lot but I remember it."

Dib then was the one to take over the conversation,

"Then you know what he did to your arms and legs, so when me and Zim then managed to get you back to his base we tried our best to fix them but with how extensive the damage was not even Zim's alien tech could fix it all, so in order to give you back the full mobility in your legs and arms we had to practically recreate your arms for you."

Zim glared down at the floor than up at Harry "Harry's muscles, tissue and nerves Zim couldn't save were replaced with Zorlin machinery. Zorlin's look like filthy stink monkey's so their technology looks like filthy stink monkey skin but is very strong and very smart."

Harry stared down at his arms and legs trying to fully comprehend what happened to him. Zim then glanced at Dib and motioned for him to speak.

"Harry if you hadn't noticed there is one other thing."

"What else could there be?" Harry whispered still in slight shock,

"Harry hadn't you noticed something….off about your sight?"

Harry froze, "what did he do to my eye?"

Dib saw the tragic crushed look on Harry's face and he dropped to the ground and wrapped him in his arms.

"You don't have an eye anymore." Zim stated as he lowered himself in a more dignified manner to sit in front of his only friends. All three were silent for a time, one was angry and struggling to accept what was done to him, the one who was holding him was furious about what had happened to his friend and he was hoping he could offer comfort and the last waited for the strength and raw determination that he felt from Harry when he had confronted him and had him see what was truly going on in his life. After some time Harry raised him head and set his jaw stubbornly,

"let's go make me an eye."
