Zim P.O.V.

"What are you doing here Zim? This is the last time that I'm going to ask you." Gaz said sitting back down on her bed.

I looked around the room looking for something, anything that will get me out of the grip of these stuffed animals.

"Zim! Answer me now!" Gaz yelled.

Terrified that she would do to me what she did with Gir, I confessed. "I was looking for Gir!"

"Yeah, well he ran away… wait a minute, how do you know about Gir?" she asked, getting up and stepping closer to me her eyes full of curiosity… and hope?

"What do you mean he ran away? His decapitated head is in your closet!" I yelled at her.

Her eyes widened in shock. She shook her head violently, so fast I thought it was going to go flying to the other side of the room. "No… Your wrong!" she said throwing herself into her bed curling up into a fetal position her back facing me, she was shaking violently.

"Let go of me, and I shall show you the decapitated head!" I told her.

She snapped her fingers, not looking up. The stuffed animals let go of me and I feel to the floor with a thud. I stood up and glared at the horrible teen, as hot as she may be she had some serious issues.

Walking back into the closet I grabbed Gir's severed head. I looked at it, and even though I have dedicated most of my time on earth to capture him, I felt sorry for him, he was at the mercy of this crazy teen.

I walked out of the closet and sat down on the bed, it creaked under my weight. The human sat up stiffly. When she saw Gir's decapitated head in my arms she yanked it out of my arms and hugged it to her chest.

"Don't worry Gir, I won't let Dib get anywhere near you anymore." She said her eyes looking around crazily.

I was truly frightened. Seeing such a powerful human in such distress, I didn't know what else to do. I hugged her to me, and she seemed to have relaxed into my hug.

"Better?" I asked her.

She nodded and sighed. "Zim… how do you know Gir?" she whispered.

"Are you sure you want to know?" I asked her.

She nodded again and quietly waited, this was so unlike her, she seemed so weak and fragile.

"Well, as your brother Dib…" I noticed that she shuddered, but I just kept going trying to ignore the feeling that Dib has something to do with Gir being out of commission. "I'm what you earthlings call an… 'Alien'." I paused, I had the feeling that this was no shock to Gaz. "I am an Irken Invader, I've been sent here to conquer earth. But you see, I can't really do that without the help of my Sir unit… Gir."

I looked at Gaz and noticed that she had screwed her eyes shut. "So it was you…"

"Huh?"

"You are the one that kept running through my dreams, I wasn't sure, but…" she grasped her forehead, she let out a pained moan, then she gasped.

She stood up and walked into the closet gathering all the pieces of Gir that there were. She looked at me with alarm in her eyes. "We have to get out of here." She whispered.

"Gaz! Get over here!" I heard someone yell from downstairs. Gaz jumped, clearly frightened and looked at me with pleading in her eyes.

I sighed, how I got into this mess, I have no idea. I pulled her into my arms bridal style and made my way to the window.

There was a pounding at the door. "Gaz! I have to do more experiments! Get over here now!" I heard someone say from the other side of the door.

Gaz whimpered and cuddled in closer to me, looking for protection. I looked at her in wonder, what was going on here. I shook my head, I'll find out later, first I had to save this damsel in distress.

I climbed out of the window, my Pak legs taking us back down the wall of the house. I quickly made my way to my base, desperate to get Gaz out of there.

I would have never seen myself in this position; if anything I'd be destroying her for distracting Gir from the mission, but here I was, saving her from whatever nightmares she had in that home.
