Chapter 5: Secret of the Necklace

"Hey Dib! Give me the batteries to your camera mine have run out in my GameSlave2!" Gaz yelled from behind the bushes.

Shland glided over to Gaz and touched the screen of her GameSlave2. It flashed for a couple of seconds and then the batteries were regenerated.

"Whoa, cool, how'd you do that?" Gaz said astounded. Shland smiled, "I've been doing that eversince I was a child." Zim and Vio hopped in their crusier and motion Shland to climb in.

"Wait! Will I ever see you again?" Dib yelled. Shland paused to think for a moment then she took off one of her necklaces and gave it to Dib.

"I want you to have this to remember me by. Hopefully I'll see you soon." The necklace was obviously ancient and Dib could only wonder what unique bond that could be shared between the such a peaceful race, like the Cosovians, and such a unpacific race, like the Irkens.

"Cool design." Gaz said out loud. Dib looked at the centerpiece. At first glance the average ordinary earth-monkey would of thought it was a spider web but as Dib examined it closely he noticed that it didn't have the exact same pattern. Under normal circumstances if this was from Earth this would have been totally acceptable. But this was not, it was from Cosovia.

"Is this your planets symbol?" Dib asked but they were gone. Everyone. Gaz had gone home and Shland had certainly gone back to Zim's house. He sighed and walked back home it had been raining quite hard lately and he stop to put the necklace on. He turned toward a puddle and saw his own reflection and for once he liked what he saw. The necklace seem to round it all together. He walked home and went immediately to his room. He went on his computer and scanned the center piece of the necklace. He did a close up on the parts that were bumpy or places that the spider-web didn't look like a spider-web. He that there were tiny ruins that were engraved on the necklace.

"Were has this been familiar?" he wondered out loud. Eventually figuring it out he search his room and found one of his "CROP CIRCLES" Magazine. He searched for one of his Magazines. He held up a certain picture to the computer screen and gasped.

Breathlessly he said, "The city of Atlantis is a Cosovian city."
