and so it continues...



Luka laughed aloud as pictures on the screen indicated that the leprosy cells were multiplying quicker than ever.
((a/n: please don't ask me how that's possible through a comp, I'm just a fanfic writer…… -_-;;))
Dib's laughter from inside echoed Luka's… his laugh was menacing and Zim-like.
Also from inside, Luka can hear the terrified screams of his sister Gaz and his father Prof. Membrane.
"Come on… Faster, faster, FASTER!!!" she urged the cells through the computer. Not that it actually would work, but it helped her to ignore Dib.
But her attempt to ignore him shattered once a sharp pain jagged up her spine.
She screamed in pain and fell into the grass, the red of her blood mixing in with the dark green grass.
Weakly, she pulled out a shiny object that was sticking out of the lower part of her side.
She held a tuning bloody fork up into the moonlight. It quavered with vibration.
"STUPID, STUPID… RRRRRRGH!!!!!!" Luka threw the pitchfork behind her.

Meanwhile in Zim's lab, Zim was doubling over in pain, hacking up his insides while at the same time scratching off bits of skin from his now un-gloved arms.
"GIR!" He croaked. GIR loomed over Zim's poor and curled up body. "Yes… master? Master?" He shook Zim lightly. Zim didn't move.

"If you hear something late at night..." Luka grinned. "Some kind of trouble, some kind of fight...." Luka sang. She smiled maliciously. "Just don't ask me what it was."

A tear ran from GIR's robotic eye and dripped onto Zim's face. The tear dissolved into a patch of skin that soon fell off.
Without warning, GIR yanked the tubes off his head. The machine stopped glowing. It broke down.

Meanwhile, Dib threw another knife at Luka. "NO!!! NO DIB DON'T!!!" Luka ducked just in time.
The knife hit the laptop and the mini-lab thing. Sparks flew and the laptop exploded.
Glaring at Dib, Luka raised the knife and carefully aimed at Dib who was standing still.
"TAKE YER BEST SHOT!!!" mocked Dib.
"Oh... I will Dib..." Luka threw the knife with full force straight at Dib.
Dib ducked as Luka did, but the knife hit a tiny device on the building. It started to tick. Tick faster. Tickticktickticktic... BOOM!!!
Suddenly Dib's entire house burst into flames!


GIR had his head on Zim's shoulder. "Master... master... Master what happened?"
Zim didn't move.
GIR slowly made his way across the laboratory and pushed a tiny button. A small pig hovered down before him.
GIR took it and tucked it under Zim's skinny limp arm.

Dib grabbed the knife and was about to throw it back at Luka.
"HAH! So I see that we both have bad ai..."
Suddenly Dib fell to the ground. Luka ran over to him.
"Dib. Dib, can you hear me? DIB!" Luka panted furiously, and threw the knife behind her. She kneeled closer towards Dib. "...Dib?"
Dib shook his head and saw Luka. "YAAAH!!!" He screamed and backed away. "Zim! Zim... where's Zim? Did the leprosy work? LUKA!"
Luka stared at him in disbelief and pointed to the broken laptop.
Dib rubbed his head. "What... what happened?" Dib looked to Luka for an answer.
Instead, she shook her head slowly and embraced Dib; happy that he was back.

Tears ran down the small robot's eyes as he watched the Scary Monkey Show next to his master in the lab. He still wasn't moving.
"Master... I'm sorry for meing stupid. I loveded you Zim," he called him by his name instead of master. "I loveded you..."
GIR just then heard a faint coughing noise. He searched the lab for the source of the sound then looked down at the seemingly dead Irken.
Zim breathed deeply and opened his eyes a crack with much effort. "GIR..." GIR opened his mouth in a smile; speechless. Zim smiled.
