Hey everybody! Wielder of the Blue Flames here with a new chapter!
Wow! it's been a while since I last updated this story! Sorry for the long wait, but i had other things to deal with! But I'm back on track and ready to roll!
Disclaimer: I don't own a thing!
Bestest Friend!
…
Tremorton High School… Lunch Time…
"So, Sheldon's part of the gang now?" Brad asked the two teenage heroes who nodded in confirmation. Jenny's nod was slower and she looked a little bit irritated. "Huh. That's neat I guess." He leaned back on his chair in a relaxed manner with his hands behind his head.
"The guy who stalked me through most of the day, nearly ruined any chances of capturing The Lonely Hearts Club and who I just asked to be only friends, is now a part of the gang and is still a love-struck fan boy." Jenny moaned as she placed her hand on her head as if she had a headache. "Neat isn't the word that comes to mind."
It had been two days since Jenny met Sheldon and things were alright…. except that Sheldon was still trying to get Jenny to date him, much to her horror.
Zim had mixed feelings about it. On one hand, he didn't want to hurt the guy's feelings, while on the other hand, he was a little irritated with his attempts of getting a date with his friend. He didn't want to show it, but he was slowly losing his composure.
"Well, look on the bright side: The weekend is almost here and we get to hang out as much as we want." Brad said trying to brighten up the mood.
He succeeded when Jenny and Zim both smiled. "That's true." Jenny agreed before she frowned. "That means we won't have to deal with them." She whispered as they turned their heads to see the Crust Cousins chatting away with their 'friends' acting all high and mighty, like the incident on the first day never happened. Luckily for the heroes, they were still hated by most of the school and most of their popularity was shattered.
"Amen to that." Zim growled as he turned his attention to another table. "But there is still one pest to deal with."
He glared at the nearby table which was occupied by Dib and Gaz. The paranormal expert was reading a book of science fiction and Gaz was busy playing her Game-Slave 2, ignoring her brother as best she could.
He could trust Gaz, but Dib was a different story. He would surely try to spy on him and his friends as they went about their day or whenever he was busy at his home.
"Meh. Ignore him." Brad waved off. "I doubt he'll be that much trouble."
"Let's hope you're right." Zim muttered as he tried to distract himself from the big headed boy by looking at his lunch. He picked up his spoon and placed some peas in his mouth and he munched away.
Jenny gave a quick glance to him, feeling a little concerned for him. Zim had been growing quieter the past few days and it was starting to bother her. She thought about talking to him at the end of the day and she nodded to herself. She went back to sipping her oil her mom made for her.
But the two were soon brought out of their musings when they heard Brit speak to her 'friends'.
"You know, that green teenager is freak. Even more than that metal moron. I think his name was Zip or something." She said aloud with a mocking tone, hoping the duo could hear her. The popular kids snickered quietly.
"Hm?" Zim hummed in confusion when he heard her and he looked in their direction.
"He's been here long enough to make 'actual' loser friends instead of those 'things' sitting with him. Like that creepy fellow Dib." She insulted and she pointed at the big headed teen who raised an eyebrow.
"Or how about those rejects in the corner?" Tiff stated when she pointed at a table in the corner of the room where five kids sat, all of them looking upset. "He would fit in perfectly with them." She snickered.
"Indeed, cousin." Brit nodded before faking a look of sympathy. "But look at the poor dear. Sitting with people who are only pretending to be his friends instead of actually having any real ones. It's so… inhuman." She insulted with a cruel smirk as they all laughed.
Zin growled in anger and his fists clenched tightly. He had heard everything and he was sorely tempted to go up to them and punch their teeth out of their mouths, even if they were girls.
'What am I saying? They're not even close to being human girls! They're demons sent from hell to torture humanity!' He thought with a sneer. He snapped out of his thoughts when he felt something touch his shoulder.
He turned to see Jenny who had a smile on her face. "Don't listen to them Zim." She reassured before she threw a glare in their direction. "Obviously, they have no idea what real friendship is if they think that."
Brad nodded. "She's right. They're just trying to make themselves feel better because they have to pay people to be their 'friends'." He patted the Irken on the back and smiled. "And besides, we are your real friends: Me, Jenny, Tuck, Gir, Mrs. Wakeman, Gaz and Sheldon. Don't even think for a second that that's a lie."
Zim smiled. "Thanks guys. I needed that." But then he frowned when he saw Dib rub his chin when he heard the inhuman line. "But even if they're just trying to put me down, Dib will use any excuse to drag me to a science lab from out of town, even the smallest thing." He shuddered when his thoughts turned to something dark.
Zim's thoughts…
Zim found himself in some sort of green glass tube in some sort of lab with some scientists talking to some news reporters. He banged on the glass in anger as they asked questions.
"Congratulations on discovering the grotesque space monster!" One woman said before holding the microphone closer to the scientist. "Where did you find him?"
"Well, a young man called us and he informed us that he was being harboured in a town called Tremorton." The lead scientist said. "He tried to resist us and lie that he was a protector, but we eventually captured him."
"Please tell us this next question: how did you know he was an alien?" The reported asked again.
"Well, we noticed that he had no normal friends." He answered as the cameras flashed in their faces.
Zim could only watch on in fear as the word echoed in his mind.
'Friends'
'Friends'
'Friends'
'Friends!'
Reality…
"Zim! Snap out of it!"
Zim shook his head when he heard fingers snapping. He blinked when he noticed Jenny and Brad giving him concerned looks.
"Dude, are you okay?" Brad asked with a raised eyebrow.
"You've been staring off into space for about two minutes." Jenny stated, worried for her partner.
Zim sighed as he rubbed his eyes. "It's nothing. I'm okay. Just thinking." He lied, trying to cover up his day-time nightmare.
Brad shrugged his shoulders and he stood up. "Well, I gotta get going. I need a trip to the bathroom before heading back to class. See ya later." He waved as he walked away.
Jenny then gasped as she remembered something. "Dang it! I almost forgot to call mom! She wants a report about what happened two days ago!" She stood up quickly and turned to Zim. "Meet you in class?"
Zim nodded with a smile. "Sure, no problem. You go on ahead."
"Thank you!" Jenny gave him a quick hug and rushed out to the hallway.
The Irken held a brief blush for a few seconds before he shook his head. He then looked around the room and his eyes widened and he gave a fearful gasp.
Everywhere he looked, he could see students acting all buddy-buddy with each other. He could see a couple of teens sharing food with each other, laughing with each other, chatting with each other and he could see two people using string and they made the word 'Friends' with it. It was like they were mocking him!
"Why do I get the feeling fate just wants to make fun of me for laughs?" He asked himself. He was starting to sweat a little in fear. He turned his head to see Dib giving him a glare while Gaz gave a small wave. Zim straightened up and gave a glare of his own.
He held a hand up to his chin and started to contemplate on his situation. 'While the Crust Cousins talk a lot of crap, Dib will take any chance he can get to dissect me on an autopsy table! But if I increase the number of friends I have, then I'll be able to fit into society much easier than before!' He smiled before frowning again. 'But who would want to be friends with me that easily and is at least a little bit normal?'
He then remembered what Tiff said and he looked to the corner of the cafeteria to see the rejects sitting around, sulking. He smiled.
'Perfect! If I hang out with them, I can work my way up to the top and at least get them some popularity and not be so lame anymore! I'm sure the others won't mind, right?' He thought as he walked to the table. 'Well, here goes nothing.'
He approached a short teenager with dark skin, a shaved head and green, skull T-shirt sitting on the end of a bench. "Hey. My name is Zim and I am looking for another friend." He introduced. "Would you be inter-?"
"I was born with webbed fish toes." The boy interrupted out of nowhere. "Like some kind of horrible fishboy. Wanna see?" He asked with one eye open.
Zim just looked at him with a grossed out look and he backed away slowly. "Maybe when my stomach gets stronger." He muttered and he walked to a skinny teenager with black hair and he looked a little queasy. "Excuse me. Would you-?"
Then right the hell out of nowhere, the teen started squealing loudly and he ran out of the room, leaving behind a bewildered and clearly freaked out Zim.
"What? What did I do?" He asked nobody in particular. He then turned to the teen with a tuft of red hair, green eyes, a teal T-shirt with a rainbow and dark green pants.
'Okay, last one. Please let this one have a semblance of sanity.' He thought as he walked up to him. "Excuse me sir? Would you be interested in being one of my friends?"
The teen's eyes lit up with happiness. "Really!? Are you serious!?" He asked with barely contained excitement.
"Yep. This is your lucky." Zim nodded. "Now then, what's your name?"
"My name's Keef." The teen introduced before he jumped excitedly. "Wow! I've never had a friend before! I promise I'll be the best, most loyal friend ever!" He declared before he hugged Zim suddenly. "I'm so happy." He whispered.
Zim felt uncomfortable and he patted Keef's back, slowly. "Uh… okay, good for you." He said nervously. He frowned when Keef wouldn't let go. "...You can stop now." He gently pushed Keef off of him.
RRRRRRIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGG!
Zim looked at his watch as the bell rang. "Come on. It's time for class." He said as he walked out of the cafeteria with Keef following.
He didn't notice the evil smirks from the Crust Cousins as they left.
MONTAGE TIME!
Things were going well at first. Zim and Keef were getting along rather well. They were hanging out during class, lunch and their break. It wasn't so bad after all.
That's when things started to go south for Zim.
When they were practicing dodgeball and their team won, Keef started doing a ridiculous happy dance, expecting Zim to join in. But he did not.
There was no way he was doing that!
This caught the attention of Jenny who was watching on suspicious, wondering who that teen was hanging out with Zim.
In art class, Zim was doing a rather average painting of him, Jenny, Gir, Brad and Tuck. It was alright and he was getting better. When Keef showed him a painting of him and Zim in medieval times acting like gods and Zim was in nothing but underwear and a freaking six-pack!
A FREAKIN SIX-PACK!
Zim looked like he was about to throw-up and he did in a trash can while Keef was completely oblivious.
Jenny continued to watch on while she drew a picture of herself, imagining herself as a human girl. She rubbed her chin and zoomed her eyes in on what Zim and Keef were doing. She quickly receded her eyes when she spotted the painting Keef did and she blushed at Zim's caricature.
Finally, when it was time to leave, the two walked through the hallway as students watched them. Some felt sorry for Zim and some laughed at the two as Keef pointed and winked at everyone, embarrassing Zim. When the teen backed into Zim and bumped him, the Irken teen pushed the boy away from him, making a mad dash to his house with Keef following him.
MONTAGE END!
Jenny poked her head out of the hallway when Zim left the school and she frowned when Keef followed him like he felt nothing from the fall. There was something wrong with that guy and she wanted to know why Zim was hanging out with him.
She spotted Brad at his locker and she walked over to him. "Hey, Brad!" She called to him, catching his attention. "I need to ask you something important."
"Really?" Brad asked and Jenny nodded. "Well, you gotta make it quick. I have to pick Tuck up from his school in a few minutes." He stated as he grabbed his backpack.
"Uh… Do you know who the boy that's been following Zim around is? He's been hanging around him for most of the day and he's getting creepier with every passing moment." She explained with a concerned expression on her face.
Brad raised an eyebrow and he scratched the side of his head with his hand. "Hm. I think I might know who, though I hope you're wrong. What did he look like?" He asked.
Jenny tapped her forehead, trying to remember. "Well… He had a tuft of red hair and he had green eyes. He wore some childish shirt and dark green pants." She noted down as Brad's face slowly turned into one of horror.
"Oh no." He gasped to himself, gaining Jenny's attention. "It's Keef! That guy has a long list of creepy around him! Anyone who has tried to befriend him have been followed by the guy constantly and have been bugged so much by him that they had to leave town just to stay away from him! The guy can't take a hint!"
Jenny slowly adopted a worried look. "So… What you're saying is…."
"Zim just befriended a crazy stalker." Brad affirmed and he grabbed Jenny and shook her like a ragdoll. "You need to tell him Jenny! You need to tell him to get rid of the guy before he sticks around him as hard as super glue!" He warned.
Jenny nodded quickly and she prepared her boosters for flight. She then raised an eyebrow of her own. "Why would anyone wanna befriend that guy?" She asked Brad curiously.
"Because they feel sorry for him, but when they spend a few hours with him as a friend, they quickly lose any sympathy with him." He explained before he made a shooing motion. "But no time for that! Go get to Zim, quick!"
Jenny nodded and she blasted off out the double doors, coincidentally knocking down the Crust Cousins, who were showing off one of their horrid fashion clothes. They were soon stained with mud in a nearby puddle. They were soon screaming with rage as the students laughed at them.
Meanwhile… Zim's house…
Zim moaned as Keef continued on what they could do together tomorrow. He had managed to catch up with him as soon as he reached his street. 'Make it stop! PLEASE!' He pleaded to whatever deity existed on this planet.
"And then tomorrow, there's the circus! We can go to the circus! I love the circus! You want to go to the circus, Zim?" He finished as soon as they reached the front door.
'Oh thank Miyuki!' He thought with relief and he turned to Keef. "Well Keef, I just want to say you have been a good friend. But I'm exhausted from all of the excitement today, so I think it's time for me to turn in early. Our little 'venture' today is done, good job soldier, be gone with you." He said/ordered quickly as he slowly closed the door.
"Hey, you got any Video Games?" Keef asked cheerfully, making Zim stop his exit. He was not expecting this reaction.
"Yes." He answered slowly, raising a non-existent eyebrow. He waited for a response, but only silence greeted him as Keef continued to stare with a smile. He immediately shut the door to avoid any further awkwardness. He let out a heavy sigh as he leaned against the door. He looked around the room and found Gir watching the Scary Monkey Show as he left him.
"Hey master! What's up?" The little robot called as he turned down the volume.
"Nothing much except a job well done." He stated proudly as he folded his arms.
"'Kay." Gir nodded before he narrowed one eye. "You have something under your feet." He pointed a finger below his master.
"What?" He questioned before he looked down and saw a purple card with a drawing of him and Keef with the words BESTEST FRIENDS titled on it. He felt one of his eyes twitch when he heard the house phone ring. He walked over to it and picked up. "Hello?"
"Heya, buddy!" A cheerful voice sounded from the end of the receiver. "How you doing?"
Zim raised another non-existent eyebrow. "Keef?" He questioned before he shook his head and narrowed his eyes. "I told you that I'm tired and I-"
"I understand, Zim." He interrupted sounding like he understood the situation. "I was thinking maybe you'd want to-"
'Beep!'
Zim smiled slightly. "Hold on, I've got another call waiting." He quickly pushed a button and switched the caller. "Hello?" He greeted with a smile.
A smile he soon lost as soon as he heard the caller's voice.
"Heya, buddy! You're gonna love the circus!" The same cheerful voice of Keef spoke again, making Zim's eyes shrink in fear. He slowly took the phone away from the place where his ear would be and placed it back on the stand.
'BRING!'
As soon as the first ring of the phone sounded, he grabbed it and ripped it out of the wall with impressive strength.
Gir's eyes widened at his masters actions. "Whoa! What the hell master!?"
"You'll thank me for that later!" He shouted back to the robot as he took a deep breath. He then noticed Gir point out the window. "What are you pointing at?" He asked.
"There is a creepy guy out there on bike passing by… again…. and again." He said slowly, clearly freaked out.
Zim felt like he was about to wet himself as he slowly turned around to look out the window. He saw Keef pass by the road on a bike, giving him a really creepy stare. And then again… and again… and again!
Zim felt his jaw drop in fear and he immediately closed the blinds. He was freaking out right about now!
"GIR!" He called to the robot who marched up to him.
"Yes, my Master!" He saluted with his eyes turning red, switching into 'soldier mode' as they have dubbed it.
"I'm going down to lab to do some work. Whatever you do, do not let any strangers in the house! Anyone like Jenny or Brad can come in. Understood?" He asked the robot.
"Yes, sir! Orders received!" He replied in confirmation. Zim smiled as he left for the lab, entered the bin and he dropped down, vanishing from sight. Gir continued to stand straight with narrowed eyes.
'DING DONG!'
"Friend… or foe? Must observe." He said to himself as he marched to his costume and placed the disguise on. He walked to the door and his eyes returned to blue when saw who it was. "Hi Jenny!"
Jenny smiled in return at the little robot and patted his head. "Hey Gir. hope you've been keeping well."
"I have! Nothing much going on around here… except for the creepy guy that passed by the window." He explained to the teenage robot, who let out a small gasp.
"It's just like Brad said!" She said to herself. She looked down to Gir again. "Do you know where Zim is? I need to talk to him about something."
Gir nodded and pointed to the bin. "He's down in the lab. You can go in if you want. Just step inside and the elevator will take you down." He instructed to her.
Jenny made a disgusted face as she walked over to it. "Couldn't he find a more hygienic way to install it?" She then sighed. "Well, at least it's not in the toilet." She stepped inside and the lift moved, taking her down to the lab. As soon as the lift touched down, she stepped out, looking around the lab as she did so.
"Jenny?"
She jumped when she heard a voice behind her and, acting on instinct, punched whatever it was behind her.
"YEOUCH!"
Jenny gasped when she saw Zim, rubbing the side on his head in pain. "OHMIGOD, ZIM! I'm so, so sorry!" She apologized to the Irken hero.
"Geez, you could have at least help back on your strength! It felt like someone hitting me with a baseball bat!" He moaned as he rubbed his head.
"I didn't mean it! It was a mistake!" Jenny continued to apologize as she waved her arms frantically.
Zim sighed as the pain slowly subsided. "It's fine. It was just an accident." He waved off when he looked up. "So, what brings you here?
One Explanation Later…
"ARE YOU SERIOUS!?" The Irken screamed with fright after Jenny told him everything
"I am entirely serious! If you don't do something about this, you'll never be able to get rid of him!" Jenny warned.
"Great! Just great! I try to expand my social skills and the guy I pick is a crazy stalker!" He whined while he rubbed his head.
"Welcome to the club, we have jackets." Jenny sympathized. "And before we continue, we are you even trying to do that? Aren't we enough?" She asked, a little bit hurt by the thought.
"NO! No! You guys are great! Perfect even." He said quickly. "It's just that… if I want to be with you guys and not get sent off to a lab to have my carcass on a lab table, I needed to fit in with human society. Imagine what Dib would do if I didn't! He would take any chance he gets!" He explained.
"Zim, I understand what you're trying to get at. But it doesn't work like that." Jenny said with a frown.
"What do you mean?" He asked, confused.
"No matter what you do to get more friends, Dib would still do what he does. He's too obsessed with bringing you to Mysterious Mysteries to care!" She then sighed. "And you may or may not have known this, but you played right into the Crust Cousins hands! They said all of that to get under your skin and doubt yourself."
Zim was silent for a few seconds before he growled angrily. "Those jerks! When this is over, I'm sicking Gir on them!" He declared vengefully.
"You can do that later. I already ruined their dresses when I left to get you." Jenny snickered, getting Zim to laugh along with her.
The two laughed for about a minute or so when they calmed down. Zim sighed sadly and gave Jenny an apologetic frown. "I'm sorry. Not telling you about this, I mean. I didn't mean to doubt you. I just wanted to stay with you guys." He admitted.
Jenny smiled softly at him. "It's alright. I know you want to stay with us. I would never want you to be taken away from us. But when something like this happens, just remember to come to us for help. That's what friends are for."
Zim smiled and nodded. "You're right. Thanks Jen."
"No problem." She shrugged with a smile. "So, why don't we go back up to the house and deal with that Keef guy?" She decided, getting back to the problem.
Zim nodded. "Right. Let's go." The two walked back to the elevator, heading back up to the kitchen. The two sighed when they stepped out together before they both gasped in shock.
Standing by the oven was Keef and he was cooking bacon in a frying pan! He smiled when he spotted Zim. "Hey, Zim! You showed up just in time for the waffles!" He said, joyfully.
Zim growled and he spotted Gir in the corner, muttering to himself. "Gir? Are you okay?"
"Make him stop! He won't shut up!" He begged. "I turn my back for a few seconds Jenny left and he was there!"
Zim growled again and turned to face Keef. "Get out of my house! I told you I'm sick of you!" He yelled at him.
"You don't like waffles?" He asked innocently before he smiled when he saw Jenny. "Wow Zim! If you wanted some time alone, you could have just said!"
The two blushed in embarrassment and anger at the proclamation. "Oh, you are dead!" He yelled as he grabbed Keef by the back of his shirt and he walked to the door. "Out. Out. Out! OUT!" He opened the door and got ready to throw.
"OH! We can walk to school together tomorrow!" Keef suggested hopefully.
"I'm sick. I'm not going to school tomorrow." Zim lied quickly and he chucked the teen out of his house, slamming the door quickly.
Keef landed on his back with no injuries. He then gave a sad frown. "Poor sick Zim. No wonder he's so sad." He said with sorrow before he smiled. "Wait! I have a great idea! I'll throw Zim a surprise party! It'll cheer him up!" He decided with a smile. "I'll get a bunch of kids and bring them over after school! It's a good thing no one knows about this or this wouldn't be a surprise." He stood up and ran back to his house to write the invitations, not noticing the bright blue eyes watching him leave.
Gir trembled as he turned to face Zim and Jenny, who were trying to keep their blushes hidden. "We may have a problem." He stated.
"No kidding! If he even manages to round up some kids, who knows what will happen!" Jenny exclaimed, worry sinking in to her thoughts.
"Agreed." Zim said with his eyes narrowed. "Something must be done about that whack job Keef. If he succeeds, I'll be carted off to a lab with my name in the headlines of the newspaper!"
"Can't you just wipe his mind?" Gir suggested. "It would easier and he won't remember even being your friend. Problem solved!" He stated happily.
"While that is a good idea, I don't have anything like that! It's not like I can conjure up something like something from-" He stopped himself when he noticed two men in black suits holding what appeared to be a small device flashing in front of a crowd. He smiled. "Actually, I think that maybe the solution to our problem."
The Next Day... Tremorton High…
Keef was handing out invitations to the other students, but he was having little luck.
"Wow! I never knew that many people weren't interested in parties." He said to himself, oblivious to the world. "If I don't find some guys to go to the party, Zim will be so upset." Before he could go on, he smiled when he spotted a couple of teens by themselves in the corner of the cafeteria.
The Rejects.
Meanwhile… Zim's house…
Zim was down in the lab, halfway done with his project he had been working on all night. He wiped some sweat from his head and stopped for a few seconds. "This had better work! If it doesn't, I'll be royally screwed! I can see everyone now!" He said to himself as his mind drifted off.
Zim's thoughts…
Thousands of people were marching up to his house wielding pitchforks and torches, with Keef leading the charge.
He found himself trapped in a green glass tube while everyone partied in his house! Then they soon joined hands and danced around the tube with smiles on their faces, while he looked on disdainfully.
It was a nightmare!
Reality…
Zim shuddered at the thought and got back to work.
He had to get this done soon or that nightmare will become a reality!
The School… Judgement time…
The bell rang.
The doors opened.
The students left.
All except five.
"PARTY!" Keef yelled.
Zim's house…
Zim looked at the clock and gasped in fear. It was 3:02pm! They would be here any minute!
'I am not going be a laboratory experiment! Never, y'hear me! Never!' He proclaimed in his mind as he worked.
He was almost done! Just a little more time!
Outside…
"PARTY!" Keef declared as he and the rejects ran towards Zim's house, Keef having a mad look in his eyes.
They were close.
The lab…
"Come on!" Zim muttered as he sweated, putting the finishing touches on the project.
Just a few more seconds!
5
Keef was closer!
4
Zim was growing more scared!
3
Closer!
2
Almost done!
1
Gir was eating a waffle!
0
DONE!
Zim smiled as he looked down at his beautiful creation. He let out a blissful sigh and he held it in his arms. "It's ready!"
"MUHAHAHAHAHAHA! MUHAHAHAHA- cough, cough! Damn, it hurts doing an evil laugh."
Outside…
"Okay, now you guys wait here while I get him. The jump out and yell 'Surprise!'" Keef instructed to the others before he ran to the house. "He'll be so happy."
As he left, the kids talked to each other.
"I've never been to a party before." A geeky girl named Gretchen said with a laugh.
"Do they hurt?" A boy named Melvin asked stupidly.
Inside the house…
Keef opened the door to the house. "Hey, Zim! I'm home!" He announced, not noticing the house was so dark. He spotted a lone figure standing in the middle of the room.
"Hey 'buddy.' I have a present for you." Zim said lowly as he held out a green box for him to take.
"For me!?" He cried out with joy. "Oh, you are my bestest friend! Thank you Zim!" He said as he grabbed the present and unwrapped it. He was surprised when he found what appeared to be a small stick. "What's this?"
"Nothing. Just stare at the little screen and push the red button on the side." Zim instructed as he closed his eyes.
Keef did so and…
'FWOO!'
A bright flash of light surrounded the area for three seconds before it disappeared. Keef was staring blankly into space, like he was in a trance. He stood still like a statue.
Zim smiled and he walked in front of Keef. "Okay Keef, you have no idea who I am and you have no memory of me the past few days. You will walk out that door and forget any ideas of a surprise party. Okay?" He instructed the teen.
"Yes." He said slowly as he walked towards the door.
"Good. As soon as I snap my fingers, you will do what I just ordered you to do." He said as the teen left. He smiled and snapped his fingers.
'snap!'
Keef blinked and he rubbed his eyes, looking around to see that he was outside. "What happened? How did I get here?" He asked himself before he shrugged his shoulders. "Oh well, I better get home." And he did so.
As for the rejects, they just watched him leave with confused looks.
"Forget that weirdo." The Fish-toed boy said before he smiled. "Hey, you guys want to see something really neat?" He asked as he went to untie his shoe.
"EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!" The squealing teen… squealed as he ran away like a lunatic.
Disaster… averted.
Later… Zim's house…
"So, Keef doesn't remember you now? That's a relief." Jenny commented as the two watched the TV.
"Yep! And as an added bonus, I made sure that he doesn't creep people out and he won't follow them like a stalker when it flashed in his face." Zim added with a grin. "I am officially, stalker free!"
"Lucky." Jenny mumbled jokingly.
"Heh, sorry." Zim smiled. "So, what are you planning to do this weekend?"
"Well, I heard from mom that tomorrow that a snowstorm would arrive. But I guess that could be just a guess." She said with a smile.
"Hm. Maybe." Zim commented offhandedly. "So, see you, Brad and Tuck tomorrow?"
"Yep! See you later!" She said as she got up and left for her house. She waved through the window and entered her front door.
Zim smiled and he went upstairs for bed. He was wondering what he and the others could do tomorrow.
'Maybe snow, won't be such a bad idea.' He thought as he turned in for the night.
The Next Morning…
'I spoke too soon.'
Zim looked out of his bedroom window… well, as best as he could, due to most of it being covered by snow!
In fact, most of Tremorton was covered in a thick blanket of snow!
Zim then shouted down the stairs with only one thing on his mind.
"GIR! Get the sled! We're having a snow day!" He yelled with a grin appearing on his face.
"YAY! SNOW DAY!"
…
…
Finally! I managed to get this thing up! I hope you all enjoyed this!
Next Chapter: Zim and Jenny experience their first snow day and their having a great time. That is until a huge robot drops out from space and asks Jenny to join their race, known as the Cluster! When Jenny refuses, the drone is less than pleased.
Please read and review as always! Thanks again!
