All but one of the bios up but I didn't want to keep you all waiting too long for the chapter. I hope you all had a merrier X-mas then me(or whatever holiday you celebrate ^_^). I only got girly-girl clothes -_- But my friends had a gift exchange with me and I gots two games: Zelda: Oracle of Ages and Spyro, Season of Ice. Yay! One of my pals got a PS2 game of some kind and the other got an entire collection of JtHM and Squee comix O.O I soon bought myself a GameSlave2(GameBoy Advance, ppl. It ain't supid it's ADVANCED!) and I'm so stuck on my games. But I love dragons! Yay!! Oooh, I had one hundred ten too many candy canes....... And, oh yeah, I'm getting the lastest Enya CD soon ^_^ Once I get it I'll put in some stuff from it if possible.

By the way, think about all the fancharacters and alter-ego Irkens. They are all in this fanfic's world. Oooooh.....

"We've completed the bombing."

"Yes. It was tedious and took a lot of our military power," he lied, "but may I ask why exactly we used so many planes and bombs on just one alien who was probably already dead?"

The uniformed soldiers stood before a office-supplies-cluttered desk in a dimly lit room. Behind the desk a tall, comfy, leather office chair rocked, refusing to face it's minions.

"Because......." it paused, thinking of a way to put it's feelings into words. "Because that heartless beast caused me so much trouble. Before the ET War three years ago. When it begun."

The soldiers gasped. All the social study books in the schools talked of three main aliens who tried to invade and landed on earth before any of the others. They caused trouble for the planet's hero, Dib. Could the soldiers really have been honored with the chance to destroy one of them? The explanation continued..

"She--I mean, IT--was a crafty and clever one back then. The smartest out of 'em all. It nearly killed me on occasions and always came up with a way out of my traps." His voice dripped with hatred as the memories played before his eyes like the glasses he had been burdened with. The chair turned around in time with a lightning bolt that flashed outside.

There he was. Dib. The enemy of all things mankind doesn't (or care/try to)understand. Mainly extraterrestrial life. It had been three years since he was last in school with those green-skinned invaders. But now, even though he was only fourteen, he was the leader of all the militaries of the world. Mankind's issue with peace within itself had finally ended, only so that a new battle could start up.

He glared and hissed the words "Riz may still be out there. Wounded perhaps, but still living. Since the scientists took ZIM," Dib looked as if the name was too horrid to even speak and you could swear you could see a replay of Zim and Dib's encounters in Dib's eyes. His glasses glowed in the reflecting of light. "And since they never let me near him to watch him die, I want to find Riz AND Zam on my own. Unprotected by helicopters. No spys in the trees."

The soldiers looked surprised at his request. Was his last order not to make sure of Riz's destruction? But they could tell that those two orders were connected to their leader's plan of somesort. They saluted and left him to wallow in his gleeful, if not dark and homicidal, thoughts. (a/n: Don't worry Dib-fans, he's still the Dibby you love(I think...). Just wait til I go into his POV later on in the story and all shall be made clear :P)

"ACK!!! Get away from meeeee!!! Please...don't hurt me!!!!!" The creature squealed as he/she put up his/her claws in defence.

"Whoa, calm down....I'm not after your blood or anything." I cooed, inching my way closer. I hope I didn't have too strong of an accent, I didn't know what tongue of this creature's kind to speak. The frightened one looked a little calmer but not by much. It didn't take me long to identify this as a dragon.

Now, dragons are not of earth so I first wondered how one arrived here. They often live on primitive planets but the closest one, Gonkilin, was far from this particular galaxy and since they have no space-travel abilities whatsoever and since earth's technology was currently poor(it could rise up easily with stolen Irken spacetravel technology)I decided against the possibility of this being a Kilin. But...that would mean......no way.....

Before this savage war begun, I had been fooling around with earth's alter-dimensions and parallel universes. I looked deep into dragon and gryffin dimensions and learned that the dimensions had ancient portals that opened back when humans were even lesser then they already were, allowing for the creatures inside to enter earth. They rarely opened now but occasionally they do. Humans lucky enough to be part of a portal-opening nowadays have been outcasted from their fellows and considered insane when ever they want to spread this knowledge and experience with their race.

After further study I learned that in each portal there was a certain "look" about the creatures inside, mainly dragons. In the human world Japan all portals there lead to three-clawed dragons. In "China" the faces and overall body-structure have an unique appearance. Other portals lead to royal dragons with five claws on their forepaws but the majority had four-clawed dragons.

I reviewed all of this mentally in less then two seconds. The small dragon had relaxed down to all fours but his/her head was still slightly withdrawn. I quickly tried to remember what kind of language this dragon would understand best but my mind was too busy drowning in the possibilities of what kind of dragon this was. I just went with a general dragon speech. Sure it would have a heavy accent but oh well.

"I'm not going to cause you any harm.....what's your name?"

"G-Grendel...say, you're not a human, are you? I thought you were. The humans tried to kill me. Hey, you're an Irken!!!"

"Yes.....um, I am." My eyes darted towards his right side. There was a huge gash in it, covering the dragon's body with blood. "You're injured, Grendel....."

A/N: Yup, I finally got up the next chpt. So put away the knives or, better yet, return them to Nny. And yes folks, I heard an Enya song and have devised a scene in the fic for it! ^_^ The next chpt will be exciting, I'm working on it rite now! Please review, I need feedback. Flames welcome, my kittys like to find prey aka people who diss fanfiction of the mighty Riz :P
