Wow, this keeps on going and going n stuff. Just like that horrible
pink bunny with the battery sticking out of his back. Anywho, DIB GONNA BE
IN THIS CHAPTER! I love Dib. I feel bad for not having him yet except in
that totally irrelevant paragraph before. Does anyone else besides me
notice that Zim's head is bigger in proportion to his body, and Dib gets
made fun of for having a big head!?
There wasn't much to do on that long trip to Earth, other then listening to Zim's lessons and looking out the window. The deep emptiness inside Lilly was filled, looking at all the different passing planets and how the stars slowly changed as they traveled on. She felt at home in the ship, and all her fears of the "dark sea" simply left her. But her fear was replaced by boredom. Zim was tired of giving her lessons, and he lagged on, not really caring if she was listening or not. GIR somehow found fun in anything, mostly in ways that drove Zim crazy, like how many times he could poke Zim in the head till it made a squishy noise which heads aren't supposed to make. But finally after a month, they arrived at earth. Lilly looked at the blue planet below in wonder. She wiggled her arms in glee that she was finally going to get off the little ship. Zim set the landing coordinates to where the base was.
"Finally, to continue my rein of doom upon the stinky humans." Zim kept on ranting to himself. Sometimes during the trip, he would suddenly break into mechanical laughter that kind of worried Lilly, just like he was doing now. They quickly landed into the roof of the strange little house, which enclosed and concealed the zip craft.
A few blocks down, Dib watched on the roof from a pair of binoculars as the ship landed. Now to put all the little schemes he worked on all summer to test. Only two more weeks till he was back to skool. He would have to work quick if he didn't want it to effect his grades like it did last year. He slid down the pipe into the soapy water of the kitchen sink. He shook the water off and ran into his room. He shut the door behind, and looked around the room making sure that for some unknown reason, someone would be in there waiting for him. He ran to his window and shut the blinds, looked around one last time being the paranoid little boy he was. When it was confirmed that not a single soul lurked in his room other then the little spider that made it's web in the corner. He named him Cheese Nip. It sometimes made him sad that he was lonely. He opened the closet door. In the closet lay a loose floorboard and under it was a box, chained, locked and bolted to the ground. He took a key which he held tightly in his hand, and unlocked all three locks. He opened the steel box, which held tiny little treasures that only a paranormal boy would see valuable. A picture of his mother, a toenail clipping from bigfoot, the first piece of alien evidence he ever found, a signed copy of crop circles magazine, and a science project that he and his dad worked on together a long time ago. He brushed those away after admiring them for awhile to reveal a canny little device. He had forgotten what it really was, but it was something for catching aliens. It was his mother's, passed on to her from her father. They were both paranormal investigators. She had disappeared when he was young, looking for alien life. She always told him, to look at the world around you with your eyes and mind wide open. No matter what, her husband was never able to keep her from searching and he lost her. He had already felt that he had lost Dib, and didn't try to stop him anymore although he still discouraged him. He fingered the contraption, wondering what it really was, it was old, kind of primitive. After all, his grandpa had made it. He was thrown into the nut house, paranormal studies weren't looked on kindly back then. Nut houses weren't exactly meant to help people back then either. His grandfather never left the walls of the filthy building until he was in a coffin. Dib held it tighter, he would have to catch Zim, in the name of his mother and grandfather. They weren't going to be mocked anymore. All the ignorant little people would see that they weren't crazy. He put the device in his pocket for luck and locked up his treasures once more and hid them back under the floor board. Then he pulled out a big cardboard box, full of little alien catching devices of his own design. This time, he would catch Zim. No matter what.
Lilly explored the new house, she wanted to go out and play, but Zim wouldn't let her. He said she needed a proper disguise to fool the stupid humans. She tried to go in the lab down the potty, but Zim yelled at her and told her to stay upstairs while he worked in his lab. So now all she could do was observe her new surroundings, noticing each little detail as she eyed each object. But there wasn't much to Zim's house and she soon grew board again. GIR sat happily watching TV, he missed it so. Lilly sat beside him and sighed. "Why is Lilly so sad?" GIR asked. She looked out the window sadly and pointed out. "Aw, you want to go out and play. Master says you need a disguise to go outside." The little Robot sat thinking hard. "I know! You can borrow mine!" GIR screamed happily. Lilly's antenna perked up. GIR pulled his little doggy suit out of his head and held it out so she could get in it. She struggled into it, but finally got it on. It was really baggy on her, and she had a hard time moving, being half the size of GIR n all, but after a little practice she got the hang of it. She opened the door and motioned GIR to come out with her. GIR shrugged, "I can't. Don't have a costume now." Lilly looked longingly at the green grass and frolicking squirrels out the open door. She didn't want to go by herself, it was new and possibly dangerous. Curiosity took over fear and she stepped outside smiling. The grass tickled her through the suit and the sun was warm. She smiled and crawled over to the lawn gnomes and poked they're shinny eyes. They stood by harmlessly seeing her as a deflated GIR and saw no need to warn Zim of the presence of the little Lilly baby. GIR smiled and shut the door, master always said to shut the door and this time he remembered. He left the Irken child to play on the lawn and he continued to watch the angry monkey show which he loved so very much. She rolled in the grass enjoying the tickly little blades of grass that brushed her face. She sat up looking at the puffy clouds above, giggling at one that looked like Zim's head when he was yelling. Closing her eyes, she soaked up the warm sun. Her eyes popped open as she heard heavy footsteps nearby. She hid behind a gnome and watched as a lady pushed her carriage along the sidewalk. Lilly's eyes grew huge with fear. It was a human, the one's that Zim told her about, AND IT WAS HUGE. Almost as big as the Tallest. The lady stopped and looked at Lilly. The lady was not a smart lady. She had mistaken the severe baggyness of the costume as hunger. She took a granola bar from her bag and approached Lilly. Lilly panicked and backed up slowly. "Aw, it's ok little fella. I'm not gonna hurt you. You wanna treat. You wanna treat you silly puppy. Yes you do. Yes you do." The lady cooed. Food aroused Lilly's hunger. Cautiously, she took a step forward. The lady smiled and threw the bar on the ground before Lilly. Lilly snatched the bar and gobbled it greedily. The lady patted her head and went away with her carriage. Confused at the encounter, Lilly watched as the strange lady walked away. Humans couldn't be as bad as Zim said if they gave her free food. Yet Irkens also gave her free food and patted her on the head, then changed into mean people that made her heart thingy hurt. Soon other humans passed her house, each different sizes and looks. They were all different. This amazed Lilly. Yeah sure you would have a Irken a little taller or with a different outfit depending on their rank, but they were mostly all the same. These humans fascinated her, she wanted to learn more about them, but from a safe distance. Her thoughts where cut short when a butterfly landed on her nose. She sneezed and the butterfly flew off. "No. Don't go." She cried, but it only flew further. With nothing else to do, she decided to chase it. From flower to flower she pounced, chasing it farther and farther. It flew higher, so she jumped after it. Soon it flew over the fence, leaving Lilly all alone in the yard. 'Well maybe... I'll just go far enough to catch it, then I come right back with it.' Lilly thought, and went beyond the fence. She looked around a little, then spotted it. She giggled as she chased it some more, into the street. Cars swerved around her, as she was oblivious to all but her ecstasy in chasing the little colorful butterfly. Zim rose out of the potty, with contacts and a pretty dark blue wig for Lilly. "Lilly, I have something for you." Zim called, but no answer. "After I give this to you, and I can take you outside like you wanted." Zim called again. He walked into the living room, and glared at GIR on the couch. "GIR," Zim said accusingly "Where's Lilly?" "Outside." GIR said flatly, not seeing anything wrong with the answer. "WHAT! She's exposed! I haven't given Lilly her disguise yet! I told you not to let her outside!" "Don't worry master, I let her borrow mine! I thought with my brains this time, just like you told me to!" GIR smiled. Zim's eye twitched, he threw the costume down and ran outside.
