Just a flashback chapter. Also thank you again for the reviews. :)


At age 13, Gaz wandered to the park's highest outlook. This night showed the sky perfectly with all the stars shining brightly above, the dark black sky high above her, along with purple and blue that is mostly shown from outskirts of the city far down from her. Wrapping her coat around her as she settled onto the ground, she smiled at her highly productive day of quietly terrorizing the kids in school, without having to raise her fist once, or even having to say one single solitary word. She found it to be an art in that really. There was really no one she enjoyed talking to ever. The lack of intelligence in that school still astounded her. Her brother was intelligent, but he was her brother, and extremely annoying so... Another that was intelligent, when he didn't freak out so much, was Zim, but being that her brother was always chasing him around and suspected anything horribly wrong if Zim said one word to her, she just preferred to be in her own corner of the world.

Gaz sighed. She was pretty used to be alone most of the time. She had her Game Slave and books so that should be enough company for her. Also being alone wasn't so bad. Was it? Sure, Dib will yell at her if he found her alone out here at night, but she just wasn't afraid at all especially when she heard some noise below coming up. Groaning, she knew who it was, and wanted to instantly knock him off the cliff.

"WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE! I want more tacos! GIMME MORE TACOS!" Gir screamed out happily.

"No Gir." Came the grated response. "No more tacos until this is done."

"Mastah I want more tacos!" Gir started to sound like he was close to tears. Seriously how does he cry? He's a robot.

Gaz could make out the top of, Zim's head as he stopped to face palm himself as she saw Gir's bouncing fake green dog head bounced around him. She had to smile crookedly at this. Hand removed from his face, he sighed, relaxed his body, and with a lot of ease he put one hand out to stop his SIR unit from bouncing. "Alright Girrrrr. How about I give you five tacos if we can pull this experiment off without a problem, and that means you behave, how does that sound?"

"Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm..." Gir thought for what seemed like forever, with his fake doggie tongue sticking out, this made Zim's head almost explode.

"GIR!"

"Ooooooooookayyyyyyyyy" Gir agreed then bounced around excitedly again.

Hanging his head down, he shook it, before raising it up to continue marching up the hill where he caught sight of the enticing scary human. "You!?"

"Yes, and you." Gaz said unfazed by his reaction.

"What are you doing here?!"

"Well I was born on this Earth, not too far from this location. I live in that location, and I often come to this location simply because it is here and not there." Gaz replied. "So therefore I am here."

Mouth opened wide, he really didn't know what to say there, so he just simply dropped his stuff behind her. "Oh no matter. I know you don't care what I do so here I am."

"Oh good then enjoy yourself. Just don't light my hair on fire or I'll doom you." Gaz nonchalantly said as she turned back to the sky.

Looking at her purple hair, he decided to move his stuff a little more to the left of her to avoid lighting her on fire, then started to set up things. He had to admire the purple demon for not honestly caring about his personal agenda, but at the same time he had to ask.

"Why don't you fear me?"

"What is there to fear?" She softly replied.

"I plan on taking over your world."

"Oh? Well good luck there."

"You will either be enslaved or destroyed."

"Keep me alive for last, will you. I want to see this moronic race destroyed." She said with a smile on her face.

"You don't care?"

"When have you known me to care?"

"You helped with Tak."

"Oh that... You had no video games on your computer, so I decided to help."

"Is that all you care about? Games?" Zim asked a little astounded.

"No." She spared him a brief glance. "I care about books as well."

What is this girl about? Zim thought to himself.

Experiment forgotten. Well obviously, Gir forgot it as well since he spotted him in the park's lake playing around the water edge. Zim shrugged and decided to sit next to the curious human. It was strange to see her wearing actual pants, but he knew she wouldn't be without that necklace of hers.

"Anything else you care about?"

Gaz turned to him and looked him in his ruby eyes. "You. I care about you, Zim." Placing her upper body close to him, she dropped her voice into a whisper. "You have no idea how often I think of those big beautiful ruby eyes of yours, Zim. I wonder how it would be to kiss you for the first time. My eyes closed. Your lips against mines possessing me. Then when it feels like we are about to dive in deeper, we separate, and I open my eyes to see my reflection in your eyes."

Zim literally couldn't breath. He felt he was about to fall off this edge as he looked at her lips and the way she said those words. Never had he thought these thoughts before and now... He was cut off in his reverie when he heard her laughing so hard that he felt not only a little angered by her turning him on, but a little freaked out because he never heard her laugh like this before. Watching her lay on the ground on her back laughing, he looked at her with his mouth open.

"Demon." He softly uttered.

Propping herself up on her elbows, she smiled at him. "Why thank you." Hearing Gir making whooping sounds far from the left of them she chanced to look to see if she can spot him.

As she did that, Zim examined her. She was starting to sprout in the chest region. He knew this petite demon will always maintain her shape in all her unhealthy eating, but already he can see it was a shape that was getting more pleasing to the eye. Cursing in Irken inside his head, he wanted to kill her for turning him on.

"So, Zim, what is your experiment?" Gaz wondered suddenly looking at him.

"Laughter."

"Laughter?"

"Yes, laughter."

"Oh no don't tell me. You are gonna expose your genitalia to the human race making them kill over with laughter."

Quickly standing up, he screamed, "I assure you worm baby that there is nothing to laugh at here!"

"Are you sure? I mean all guys are so self assured about themselves until otherwise." She felt little horns sticking out of her temples as she spoke. Standing up, she just wanted to push this more. "Do you have anyone to prove me wrong?"

"No! But there is nothing wrong down there."

Getting closer, amber stared into ruby, "Then there is no one at all to prove me wrong." Standing closer she smiled. "No. One. At. All."

Two thoughts entered his head. She was pushing him to do something and he knew it was a trick, but he was tempted. Then again... "You are right, Gazlene. It is a stupid idea."

"I didn't say that."

"Not in so many words, but you are clever in what you did." Smiling, he sat back down.

Sitting down next to him, she smiled at him. "You had to be pretty desperate to think that idea there. I know my brother is a pain, but I have noticed that when my brother pushes so badly that often times your ideas are pretty lousy. You are better when you are more calmed down. Wait it out and do it again."

Knowing she did have a point, he nodded his head agreeing with that. "Why are you saying all this to me anyhow?"

"Well, Zim I like you. I can't help it."

"I'm Zim so that is understandable."

"Actually no." Propping herself back on her elbows, she looked back to the stars. "Because now I need my head examined."

For a few hours after that, they solidified a friendship both didn't realize they could ever find in their lives. One that was trained to be an Invader and another a complete loner.
