Chapter 6- Changes For Zim

Zim woke up the next morning feeling fine. He had managed to convince himself that The strange sick spell
had been a dream and nothing more. He went upstairs to find some breakfast.
Gir was already up and was sitting at the kitchen table eating some concoction of fruit, cereal, cupcakes,
and other asorted, unidentifiable, mashed foods.
"Gir! Today is a Saturday so I will not be going to skool. I plan to stay down in the labs today to put the finishing
touches on the--" Zim stoped in mid-sentance and watched Gir. The S.I.R.'s eyes had gone red and he glared at Zim. "Gir?!
What is wrong with you? Have you been eating ants again?"
"Intruder in the house!" Gir replied in a low voice.
"INTRUDER?! Where?!" Zim cried, spining around to find the person Gir was glareing at. "Gir! There is
no intruder here!" Zim shouted turning to look at Gir again. Zim's face twisted into a look of confusion. "Gir, what are you doing?"
Gir's eyes were still red and now he was taking slow steps tward his master, still glareing. "Intruder in the house!"
Gir repeated. He took a few steps closer then various defence mechanisms came out of his head. (think like when Gaz
was in the base on 'Bloaty's Pizza Hog')
"Gir! Stop this at once! I am your master!" Zim cried, beging to get scared. Gir stoped and he returned to normal.
He cocked his head to the left a little and examind Zim. Zim stood, tense, wondering what was going on. Wondering
what might be out of place in the robot's head. Then Gir's eyes turned red again.
"You're not Master!" He said in the low voice. "Intruder!" Then he began walking tward Zim again. Zim
gulped and tried to make the spider legs come out of the pod, but they weren't working.
The next thing Zim knew Gir was draging him out of the house by his feet. Gir threw him out onto the side
walk and shut the door, locking it shut. Gir then apeared in the window beside the door and began laughing.
"GIR! LET ME BACK IN! GIR! OBEY ME GIR! OBEY ME!" Zim screamed, pounding on the door. Gir disapeared
from the window. Zim waited a moment for Gir to open the door. When he didn't Zim looked in the window. There he
saw Gir sitting on the couch watching 'Scary Monkey Meets Spongebob Squarepants'. Zim steped away from the window.
He hadn't even gotten time to put on his disguise! He was locked out of his house without his disguise! Pictures of himself
in large tubes flashed through his head. Zim shuttered and turned around.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!NOOOOOOOOOO!!!" Zim screamed as two of his gnomes draged him out of
the yard. "What is going on?!" He whispered, suddenly realising that he should probably try not to atract atention. He
stood back up and looked around desprately, looking for a place to hide.
Across the Black top circle he spoted a navy blue house. Jen! As much as he hated to admit it he needed
her help. And she was the only one who could help. Zim glanced around quickly to see if anyone was watching him
then bolted across the black top, running as fast as he could. He got to her door and tried opening it himself, but it was
locked. Zim pounded on the door and after what seemed like an eternity Jen answered it, disguise on. Zim ran past
her and huddled on her couch, shaking with fear. Jen shut the door and sat down on the couch by her terrified cousin.
She looked him over ceriously with a small satisfied smile. Zim didn't seem to notice this.
"Gir.......threw me out........then.......security gnomes......atacked me! Everything......malfunctioning!" Zim explained
while trying to catch his breath, which seemed harder than usual. "They didn't.......seem to......recognize me!" To his
surprise Jen's smile grew larger and she seemed to be holding back laughter. "What?" Zim demanded, offended that
she found this funny.
"You haven't looked in the mirror lately, have you?" She asked.
"No, why would I?"
Jen just smiled. Then she turned in her seat to face the kitchen door. "Guys! He's here!" She called. Zim looked
in the direction Jen was looking.
Gaz walked into the living room a moment later. She smiled when she saw Zim and walked over to get a better look.
Gaz smiling at him made Zim nervous. Then an Irken walked out of the kitchen. A male with brown eyes, wareing a black jacket
over a blue shirt with a smilie face on the front. Zim looked at the Irken, who stood near the kitchen door with his arms crossed
studying Zim.
Then it hit him.
"Dib?!" Zim cried, wondering why he hadn't known right away. For some reason seeing Dib in Irken form sent a chill
Zim's spine. It just wasn't right.
"Zim." Dib replied a smile creeping onto his face. Zim glared back, he didn't like the strange smile the
other three were shareing as if they had some secret that Zim wasn't aware of.
"What?!" Zim asked nervously looking away from Dib to Jen, then Gaz, then not wanting to look at Dib again,
back to Jen.
"Come on, Zimmy." Jen said, taking Zim's wrist and pulling him off the couch and leading him through the
kitchen to the bathroom by the stairs. "There's something we need to show you." Gaz and Dib followed them into the
bathroom. Dib stood near the door, Gaz sat on the side of the tub, (don't ask why Jen has a bathtub. She just does.) and
Jen and Zim stood a little to the left of the mirror above the sink. Zim looked at each face nervously, afraid of what they
were about to show him. Some how he knew it had something to do with the sickness of the night before.
"Just remember: It's not as bad as it seems." Jen said, Zim wasn't reasured by that. "Are you ready?" Zim
nodded, trying not to show his fear. Jen put her hands on her cousins shoulders and, taking a few steps backward,
lead him infront of the mirror. Then she quickly backed away to stand beside Dib near the door.
Zim watched her back away and gave her a strange look. He shruged and turned tward the mirror. He froze
not even daring to breath. It was a trick! It had to be!
On the other side of the mirror a human boy stared back at him. This boy had pale, white skin and brown actual
human eyes. His mouth fell open to show two rows of strait white teeth. The top of his head was covered with hair a shade
of purple that matched Gaz's and it looked like his wig without the bunch in front sticking up.
Zim lifted one hand to touch the top of his head only to find that it was real hair. Two ears stuck out from the
sides of his head and a nose was in the center of his face.
Zim was human!
Suddenly an Irken face apeared in the mirror beside Zim, startling him.
"How do you like it, Zim?" Dib sneared. "Isn't DNA altering cool?" Zim spun around to face Dib.
"Cool?! COOL?!" Zim screamed. "How could you do this to ME?! This is horrible!" He turned to face Jen.
"YOU! You've done this! You must give me the reversal! Give it to me! Now Jen! Where is it?!" He took a few angery
steps tward her. Jen just stared back a soft glare on her face. Gaz steped in front of Zim.
"Not until you give US the cure for Dib!" She growled. "After that we'll give you your cure." she paused and
looked at Dib then back to Zim. "Maybe."
"NEVER!!" Zim screamed. "Give me the cure!" he stood, waiting, but no one moved. Gaz stayed rooted to her spot,
glaring at Zim. "Do you know who you are dealing with?!" Zim asked Gaz. "I am ZIM! Irken Invader Zim! Now--"
"Thats funny," Gaz cut in. "Last time I looked there were only two Irkens in this room." She paused, glaring at Zim.
"And you aren't one of them." She finished, her voice was ice. "Now, give us the the cure for Dib or you will feel my wrath!"
"FOOL!!" Zim screamed, loseing the very last of his patience. He brought his gloved hand up and struck Gaz
across the face. The sudden impact sent Gaz to the floor.
Almost emidiately after that a long metal leg hit Zim in the side and sent him sliding over the white lenolium till
he hit a wall in the corner. Zim shook his head to make the room stop spining. When he looked up Dib was hovering over him,
proped up by the spider legs coming from his back. Dib glared down at Zim.
Zim looked up for the first time he was truely afraid of Dib. He knew it was useless to try to fight Dib at that moment.
Dib was the Irken now and Zim was the human. Dib had countless devices to defend himself in the pod on his back and Zim had
nothing. Zim shivered thinking of the things Dib could do to him right then. It was hard for Zim to admit it, but if he tried to fight
Dib, he would lose.
"Zim, just give us the cure so we can get everything back to normal." Jen's voice brought Zim out of his thoughts. Jen
was now standing beside Dib, who was still up in the air glaring down. Gaz stood on the other side. They stood, traping Zim in
the corner, waiting as if expecting Zim to pull the cure out of his pocket.
"We're not giving you your cure till you give us mine." Dib said, bending the joints on the legs so that he was only
a couple feet away from Zim.
Zim looked down at the floor. "I can't." he said quietly.
"Why not?" Dib demanded. Zim sat silent in the corner he looked up at Dib, then Jen, then Gaz, then he looked to the side,
tward the door, trying to find away of excape. Then he looked back at the floor.
"I......never made a cure." He answered nervously. Dib's eyes grew wider and a look of disbelieving fear came to his face.
The spider legs folded back up and he fell to the floor, standing between the girls and staring at Zim.
"You never made a cure?!"Jen cried, looking at Zim as if he were a ghost. Zim shook his head slowly, refusing to look up
at them.
"So.....I'm stuck like this?" Dib asked quietly, the realisation sinking in. Zim nodded. Dib looked like all his hopes and
dreams had just come crashing down on him, and for a second Jen actualy thought he would cry.
Gaz growled, glaring at Zim. Her eyes seemed to hold fire and her hands tightened into fists. "You're gonna pay for this!"
She yelled angerly and jumped on Zim. "Nobody hurts MY brother except ME!!" She was now punching and kicking wildly at Zim,
and nearly everyone she threw hit him.
"NOOOOOOO!!! Stop it! Stop it! Get her off me!!" Zim screamed, struggling to get away from the crazed girl. Gaz's
foot found Zim's belly and Zim let out a howl of pain. "AHHHHHHH!!! MY NEW SPLEEN!" Jen and Dib grabed Gaz's arms and
pulled her off of Zim, still kicking and screaming.
"Gaz! Stop it!" Jen cried over Gaz's protesting screams. "You can't kill Zim! he's the only one who knows how to make
the cure!" Gaz stoped struggling as she thought about that.
"You're right." Gaz said. Jen and Dib let go of her.
Big mistake.
The moment she was free Gaz dove for Zim again, kicking and yelling like before.
"AHHHHHHH!!! NOOOOOOOO!!" Zim screamed. "YOU FOOLS!"
"MAKE THE CURE ZIM!" Gaz screamed. "MAKE IT NOW SO I CAN KILL YOU!" Once again Jen and Dib had to pry
her away from Zim, who now had bruises rising on his face.
"I can't make the cure!" Zim exclaimed. "My house doesn't recognize me! Gir threw me out! My computers
wouldn't obey me!" Jen thought about it for a moment, acidently losening her grasp on Gaz. Gaz tried to get away but Jen caught her
again before she could do any more damage.
"Then we'll have to use my computers. You'll have to tell me the password so we can get into your system, but it should
work out fine."
Zim didn't like the idea of them getting into his computer, but he reluctantly agreed. jen and Dib had to drag Gaz with
them so that she wouldn't atack Zim again as they all went down to Jen's lab.
Zim stayed a few steps behind them, trying to find away out of this.
