[ chapter three - frieeeeeeend ]
Zim slammed the door behind him, storming into his house, where GIR sat on the couch, upside down. Actually, he wasn't upside down. He was wearing his dog-costume upside down, watching a black and white static-channel. Zim give GIR a strange look, but tried not to mind that. It was sorta getting usual for him.
"Welcome home, Master," talked the dog's stomach in the most loving way.
"Ngh...," Zim replied back, hopping onto the couch with a tired sigh, which GIR noticed. "I am overly disgusted. This foolish little Earth dirt.....Dib, has been acting quite strangely towards me lately. He's been acting rather....," Zim squinted his eyes, rubbing his two fingers together. "Happy around me. Too 'happy'..."
"Aw.....," GIR squirmed in his costume, finally popping his head into the right place, then jumped on Zim, rubbing his head affectionately against the green child's cheek, but Zim took no mind to it and dispisingly shoved it away as if it was nothing, still his expression the same, his mind on Dib. He then grunted bitterly, realizing he has had enough of this "Dibness" and wanted to refresh himself out of anything relating to Dib, deciding to go down into his lab to relax. As he hopped off onto the moldy green floor, GIR came jumping on top of him, making Zim fall flat onto his stomach.
"Wha-....WHAT IS THE MEANING OF THIS?! I order you to GET OFF!" Zim screamed out.
"Let me give you a massage!" GIR squealed, startying to skip around Zim's back.
"DARGH!!!!!" Zim yelled out in pain and irritation, struggling with the green dog until a bell was rung. Zim froze as GIR continued to giggle and wiggle madly in his grip. Dropping GIR, which crashed down onto the floor, he warely snuck up to the door. His first choice wasn't to open the door. No. He had to be careful. Expect the unexpecte-
C-RAMBALOMBA! (sound effect)
One of the metallic robot, his artificial mother came crushing into Zim, pushing him away from the door. Zim pushed himself up, rubbing his head. He thought he had gotten rid of that trush! Just as he was about to get up and yell over to GIR with his demanding questions, he was pushed again by the door as the metallic thing swang open the door.
There stood a boy in his normal black coat, pants, and a matching pairs of shoes with his favorite shirt that hasn't been washed for God knows how long.
"Uhhh.....," he looked up, suspiciously studying the metallic parent of Zim. ".....may I speak to Zim?"
"Ohhh! What a cute little puppy!" her voice echoed, as she was about to reach over to Dib with a deadly shadow casting over him, but was pushed away as Zim stood at the door with a crushing sound at the side.
"Yess, what do you want, Dib??" He growled at Dib, leaning up to him with his infamous glare.
Dib stood there for a while in silence, then quickly smiled again. Yes. He has a reason. FINALLY a good reason to come over to Zim's house. He mustn't ruin his chance.
"I came over to deliver you something you forgot at Skool," he answered, placing both of his hands to his back innocently.
"Yes, yes. Now BAD-bye!" Zim hissed and yelled the last two words, and was about to slam the door on Dib, but Dib managed to slip through the crack quickly.
"WHAT in the name of Ir-....th. EARTH!? Are you doing?" Zim yelled, stomping his foot.
"Well, aren't you gonna ask me WHAT you forgot, or thank me for bringing the stuff to you or whatever you...Zimians do?"
Zim was about to reply "no", then paused, wondering how such a superior advanced and graceful being as he could actually "forget" anything? And to think of being "helped" by a Earthling, a human, "a" DIB was a shameful thing to him.
"...then WHAT did I forget, DIB?" his mouth automatically spitted out a question he thought he didn't want to ask.
"OH, I dunno~.....hmm....should I really give it back to you? Or should I-...."
Zim had limited amount of patience with this human boy as he grabbed rudely on Dib, starting to push and pull him out rudely, making sure the boy felt every shoveing pain of it.
"Ow, ow, ow! WAIT!" Dib screeched onto a brake with his heels and turned to face Zim again. Shoving his hand into his pocket, he grabbed for a piece of paper, then held it up for all people to see. "You forgot THIS, ZIM!"
".....it's a napkin."
"But I thought you might wanted to use it later on, since you didn't throw it away during lunch."
"GET OUT! OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT!!!!!!" Zim shoved Dib back, as he took out a white lazery gun-thingy out from his pack on his back and started to blast at Dib. Dib squealed, jumping away from the blast as Zim screeched and laughed at how pathetically he moved.
"Is this how you treat your FRIEND, Zim!?" Dib yelled out, bouncing onto the couch.
"F-.....," Zim stopped, looking over to Dib.
"Yes, a friend," Dib felt as if now HE was in power, slowly starting to walk up to Zim. "....and maybe your only friend. Hmm...oh, then that makes me your BEST friend, doesn't it, Zim?"
"Just what makes you think that I am your friend, Earthly doomed insect!? I AM NEVER YOUR FRIEND! An Invader needs NO friend, as it will just get in one's way! And such highly beings like I will NEVER BE YOU AND THE PETHETIC LIFE FORM'S......friend!!!!!!"
BLAM!BLAM!BLAM!BLAM!BLAM!BLAM!BLAM!
Dib found himself all crispy and juicy as he was kicked out from his house, rolling all the way to the drive way. He then slowly trembled in pain and looked up to the house.
Zim was cursing angrily back inside the house as he was about to set up extra security system as Dib's face came poking out through the window.
"I love you!" He yelled, then dissapeared, only to poke out his face suddenly from the other window. "As a friend!"
"GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!" Zim spazmed, running up to both window as he shut them closed hard, locking it tightly as it can lock.
"This is pure INSANITY and MADNESS!" He swang his finst up. "I swear that by the day I rule this ball of WASTE, I shall plague all mankind and this 'friendship' of their puny little lives! YES! They are WEAK! That is why they need this ffff-...FRIENDSHIP. They are like sucking animals of....things that suck each other's life essense. They LIVE OFF from each other varociously like uncivillized, UNEVOLVED 3rd base of blood thirsty STINKY ORGANISMS!!! STINKY, STINKY-....."
He blinked, looking blankly into space.
"A friend......," he whispered to himself, starting to let his feet pase up the floor with one hand to his chin. His lips pirked up into a smugly smile, GIR looking up at him with wondering look as it stayed seated on the floor.
"Yesss....a friend," he continued on, chuckling secretly. "If Dib wants me as a friend, which I really don't blame his reasons, for I am so great with the over welming, over-distinguished mind in this little doomed world, then he shall HAVE me as a friend. No. Correction! I shall have HIM as my....ffffrieeeeeend....hehehehe," he pauses a bit. "...hehehehehehe! .......HYAAAAAAAHYAHYAHYAHYAHYAHYA!!!!" He started to cackle madly, his laughter getting more and more louder with his head tossed back, gleaming teeth flashed for all to see with his twisted tongue twitched out into the air and his back arched forward. GIR, of course, joined in, too as the two let their echos of wicked laughter wonder around their neighborhood.

"Why don't you just give up," Gaz suggested, letting her cereal get soggy in the whiteness of her cold milk with the silver, slightly crooked spoon, dipped into the blue bowel. She was taking her attention once again to her Game Slave, enjoyning the light glow comming out from its screen.
"No way," Dib squeezed his spoon a bit too tightly while he let his lips droop into a dissapointed and frustated frown. "I have to be close to my friend.....but I must be closer to my enemy."
"What 'friend'?" Gaz asked mockingly and slipped out from her chair, walking out from the kitchen to the iving room.
"Oh, very funny, Gaz! Y-....you got me there! I think I'm gonna laugh!" Dib spoke back to her, but felt useless. he pushed his own bowel of cereal aside, placing his head down onto the table as he closed his eyes. How in the world can her get Zim to become his friend? Each time he tries, Zim only gets more and more....opposing towards Dib. The boy swant his head up again, squeezing his eyes closed with gritted teeth, irritatedly scratching his head with both of his hands. "Arrrrrrgh-....."
Then came the phone ring. He gasped a bit, staring up at the plastic figure, then just sighed. He was about to yell out for Gaz to come pick it up, but knowing her negative reaction he thought better of it and made his way up to the phone, grabbing for the reciever.
"Yes, hello?" Dib meekly answered.
"Hello, Dib." A hollow, yet farmiliar voice called back on the other line.
Dib almost jumped up in surprise, wanting to scream out the Irkans name but tried to keep his cool. "...Zim! .....you called....I meant-," Dib didn't know what to say for a few seconds until Zim, with a mixture of well acted-out pleasent tone of his voice, spoke.
"I'm teeeeerriblly sorry about my unwelcoming gestures earlier, my dear...," on the other end of the line, Zim waved his hand around, wondering how he should call this disgraceful being, "class mate." He narrowed his eyes as he choise his words with a smirk, sitting in his lab and talking through his small compact computer.
"Yeah, you should be!" sreamed Dib inside of his mind, but just simple smiled and nodded. "What ARE you talking about, Zim? It's alright. Don't worry about it. Ha ha ha."
Zim laughed along with a not-so-amused tone, then lowered his voice as if trying to tell a shameful secret. "...anyway, about this 'friendship' you were talking about earlier."
Dib blinked, straightening himself up.
"I will.....," Zim quickly leaned away from the computer, choking himself as he gagged silently, trembling and quivering all over. Then finally swallowed, lowering his face to the blank screen with only one word in Irkan flashed in red. "accept it."
Dib was taken back for a moment. Zim recieving nothing but silence from the other line. Dib just stared out, many thoughts going through his mind.
"Ah-....I...," but before Dib can even reply back, a sharp 'click' was heard then the line was cut off.

"Master and Diiiib, sitting on a tree!" GIR started to skip around in the lab, then circled around Zim as he waved his robotic hand up in the air. "K-I-L-L-I-N-...."
"Silence, GIR!" Zim flang his arms at GIR, trying to wave it away. He had never felt so low in his life! At leat, that's what he thought. His fist clentched hard, ramming onto the compact computer, deleting all the data about the connection between Dib before he tossed it at the wall. He felt sick and filthy. He was ashamed of himself with a pang og guilt comming up to his mind.
"No....NO! I am not betraying the Irkan Impire!!!! SILENCE!! SHUT UP!!! SHUT UUUUUUUUUUP!!!!" The alien started to beat its own head, storming out from his lab.
