A/N - Invader Zim belonged to Jhonen Vasquez and Richard Steven, but all of the OCs involved belongs to me.
Dib continues running as he wasn't paying much attention to his surroundings as he's too focused on finding Lily and Min-Jung.
Ronin is walking through the streets and sighs.
"I... I wonder where Harumi-chan is...?" He thought as he suddenly felt as if he was bumped by someone. "Oi!"
He noticed a blue boot... a boot that is all too familiar to him, so he quickly grabs 'air', which he realised he grabs a piece of cloth and rips it out, revealing to be Dib...
"... You..." Ronin growled as he reaches for his gun.
"Wait! Let me ex-"
"You have NOTHING to explain, you filth!" Ronin yelled as he takes his gun and shots Dib's shoulder, but was deflected, "What?!"
"Thanks dad for giving me a metal arm..." Dib thought as he runs away.
"Oh no, you don't!" Ronin shouted as he shoots again at his other shoulder.
"Ahh!" Dib screamed in agony as he quickly runs away with his electricity powered boots.
"Come back here, you coward!" Ronin shouted as he looks at the bullets he had in store and sees the gun has three more bullets left, "Good... that means I can still kill him..."
While Dib is running through the streets, he quickly stops to take a bit of a breather... and spots Harumi and Leo carrying Min-Jung. He looks down, takes off his SEG badge and throws it on the ground.
"... I'm not gonna need this anymore..." Dib thought and shouts, "Hey! Wait! Min-Jung!"
Harumi and Leo stop on their tracks and see Dib running towards them while putting his hand on his shoulder to cover his gun wound.
"Huh?" Harumi muttered as the young man pants heavily, "Wait a minute... I heard of you... you're... you're Dib..."
"... Y... yes..."
"..." Harumi glares at him as she takes out her wand and smacks him in the face with it.
"Ahh!" Dib shouted as his right cheek starts to swollen a bit, "What the hell was that for?!"
"That's for capturing Zim and making him go through living hell!" Harumi screamed at him as she smacks him in the hip.
"Ahh!"
"That's for working for the woman who ruined so many lives!" She shouted again as she hits him again.
"Ahh!-I-I'm Sorry..." Dib apologised.
"That's for ruining the lives of millions of Japanese citizens!" Harumi shouted as she hits him again, and suddenly, her wand starts glowing, "and that's for working with the murderer who killed my mother!"
"A... stop it..." Min-Jung begged her, which her wand stops glowing and turns to her, "Please... he's... the only two friends I have left... don't... kill him... please..."
"..." Harumi stayed quiet as she puts away her wand, "Fine... I wouldn't..."
Dib slowly gets up while breathing heavily... and suddenly got shot in the chest.
"Dib!" Min-Jung screamed in panic as Dib collapsed to the floor, but barely holding on.
"... Now... Dib Ashworth... today is the day you'll die..." Ronin said as he was about to shoot him again, until Harumi runs up to him to block his view, "... Move aside, Harumi-chan... This doesn't concern you..."
"Hey! I'm Japanese too, so it does concern me!" Harumi told him, "And I'm saying killing him isn't going bring your master and your country back! You know that!"
"... I... but... I..."
"Besides, if you murder him here, people will find his corpse, SEG will get involved and arrest you," Leo told him, "Do you really want to happen? Especially if you might never see Valarie again!"
"... Vala... rie..." Ronin muttered as he slowly lowers down his gun and puts it away while Dib managed to get up easily despite the wounds, "You're... right... killing him would only make the problem worse than it really should... and tend to have severe consequences, so I wouldn't..."
"Oh thank god!" Dib muttered.
The group heard a thunder noise and looks up in the sky, where they see the sky becomes black and dark purple clouds forming on top of SEG HQ, making Leo and Harumi gulp... and Dib runs off.
"Where are you going?!" Leo shouted.
"Making up for my mistakes!" Dib replied as he runs off.
(Meanwhile with Zim)
Zim smashes a wall, which now has a massive hole on it as he picks down the large door and runs through the hallway.
"Hold on... why am I so determined to save her all of the sudden...?" Zim thought as he quickly stops on his tracks and thinks, "I mean... we're just strangers... is it because she looks like Gaz or... is it something else?"
"Zim!"
Zim quickly turns around and sees Dib running towards him, which he quickly turns his hand into a claw.
"Wait! I'm on your side!" Dib told him.
"As if I ever believe you!" Zim shouted at him, "You fucking ruined my life!"
"I...I...yes... but I'm against Ate now!" Dib told him, which causes the Irken to transform back.
"So... you know her true name then..." Zim asked.
"Sadly... yeah... my... my father told me..." Dib told him as he looks down, which confuses the rebel.
"But isn't he dead?"
"No... He's alive alright ... he was revived and mind controlled by Ate herself..." Dib told him.
"... Shit... whatever," Zim shrugged off, "I have to go out to save Lily and take down Ate,"
"Wait, Lily?!" Dib asked loudly, "Oh god... I warned her too late..."
"Oh no, she already knows about the truth... she just got kidnapped," Zim told him.
"Then let me help you!" Dib begged him, catching the alien off-guard, "...Don't get the wrong idea, I still... hate you... but I can tolerate you now and my main focus is to save Lily... one of my only two friends I have left is this god damn planet and I'm not gonna lose her!"
"Makes sense since she's technically your sister," Zim muttered.
"...I'm sorry... what." Dib muttered as well as he heard him said that.
"Oh yeah, it turns out, Lily is one of Gaz's clones, making her technically your sister," Zim explained in a rather nonchalant tone. "And an artificial demigoddess created by Ate, and don't ask me how that works; I have no idea!"
"... That... actually explains a lot... especially her appearance... but also leaves more questions..." Dib said as he quickly shakes his head, "That's not important right now! We need to go, now!"
"Right!" Zim agreed, "Oh, and the feeling is mutual, by the way,"
Dib nods and the duo run upstairs to face Ate and rescue Lily.
Ate looks at the large pillar while it has a door and darkness magic-made smoke coming out of it, which she starts hearing footsteps.
"So... this is it, then..." Ate thought as she turns around and sees Zim running up to the platform along with Dib, "D-Dib?!"
"...Grr... why... why...?" Dib asked repeatedly, and then looks at her with pure anger and hatred, "Why did you killed my dad, why?! I fucking trusted you! I-I... I actually see you as a mother... so... why... why did you do this to me?!"
"... As if I would tell you..." Ate replied, "I mean, a typical villain would talk endlessly about their plans, goals and whatnot, but thankfully, I'm not those villains... if you want to know... you have to beat me!"
"Gladly..." Dib replied as he takes out his gun, he started shaking a bit.
"..." Ate waits for him to shoot her.
"... Dib-stink... what the hell are you waiting for?!" Zim asked him very harshly, which catches him off and triggers his gun, which Ate deflects it with her whip.
"Shit!" Dib and Zim shouted at the same time.
"Hehe, awe," Ate teased them as she aims her whips at them, "What's wrong? Cat caught your tongue?"
"Grrr... Where on Irk is Lily-human?!" Zim asked harshly.
"Oh... her, well she's inside that pillar made by Dr. Kronin himself," Ate told them, "This will help her transform to her true form... as a weapon of pure destruction and having the eyes of the Heaven,"
"You bitch!" Zim shouted as he creates a dark-magic made dagger and throws it at her, but she deflects it with her whip again, "Damn it!"
"So pathetic... especially two traitors who want to take on the whole world... tell me..." Ate said and asks, "Are you ready to be the number one enemy of the world?"
"... Please... I have been hated by many earthworms and Irkens for the majority of my life..." Zim told her, "So... the moment I was saved by Mikala... is the day I'm ready to be hated... especially if it means I can finally kill you!"
"You killed my father... you used my sister as a copy template... possibly tortured many of my other sisters I never got the chance to meet... and now you're using Lily!" Dib shouted at her, "If that means I can save both Gaz and Fiona... along with Lily... then fuck yeah I'm ready for it!"
"... Heh..." Ate chuckled a bit, "You two changed so much over the years..." "A part of me can't help but be proud... especially you, Dib... if... if only that bitch hasn't ruined my life..."
Suddenly, the pillar starts to crack a bit and more smoke coming out of it.
"Wha-What the hell?!" Dib shouted in shock while Ate takes a deep breath and moves to the left a bit.
"Now... I shall introduce you the new goddess of destruction I have created... the one who shall go through the underworld and get that Pandora's box for me... the one who shall destroy all of the creations the Olympians have made... meet... Dark Artemis!" Ate introduced as Lily comes out of the pillar with a completely different look.
Her short, bobbed hair is now longer that reaches to her lower back, her former stoic blue eyes are now bright yellow with the feel of hatred and no life in it, her skin has purple, glowing lines around her and her sclera turns black. Her SEG uniform is replaced by a armour that has a black jumpsuit, grey shoulder armours with purple lines, white fingers, boots and a grey headband with a purple gem on it.
"I am... a tool of destruction... all lives must be eradicated..." Lily said in a robotic voice.
"Welp... shit..." Dib thought as he looks at the brainwashed Lily.
