Peggi-Two things. 1) I redid this chapter since for some weird reason the chapter repeated twice O.o and 2) I might not be able to update for a few days since I'll be working on other fics, working on my site, and the dreaded school re-opens on Tuesday. Okies, enjoy chapter 7.
CHAPTER SEVEN
Zim walked into class and took his seat. He didn't really pay much attention to mrs bitters, because he was too busy thinking.
'Stupid girl. She thinks that she will be a paranormal investigator?! Some alien detective she'll be, when she's talking to an alien and doesn't even know it! INFERIOR human race!'
Dib was sitting down, mumbling to himself about how he should sneak into Zim's house while he was sleeping, so that he could get the necessary footage to send into 'Mysterious Mysteries' and prove once and for all that Zim was, in fact, an alien. He had thought about this plan over and over, and suddenly. . .something interesting came to him. Now if only he could get Sam to go along with it. . .he would have her sneak into Zim's house so that if she got caught, maybe she could trick Zim into thinking she wasn't there to spy on him, but just to say hi or visit.
'Yes, I will have her sneak in, take pictures, and prove once and for all that Zim IS AN ALIEN!!!'
Dib looked around the room to see that everyone was staring at him strangely.
"Did. . .I just say that out loud?"
one of the random girls in class nodded her head 'yes', and Dib sank into his chair.
'well, that just ruined things.' Dib thought, sulking into his chair and pouting.
After class had ended, everyone ran out of the school to freedom. Almost as soon as everyone got outside a light drizzle began to come down. Zim shivered, remembering 'the wettening', which was the last time he had seen rain.
"Hey Zim. Something the matter?"
Zim turned around to see Sam, Dib, and Gaz, walking out the doors.
"They don't HAVE rain on his home planet."
Gaz had already begun to walk off, playing her game slave and holding on tightly to her umbrella.
"Come on Sam." Dib ordered
"Um. . .actually I think I'll walk home with Zim."
". . .but. . .WHY?!" Dib asked, not sure why ANYONE would want to spend time with. . .an alien. . .
"Dib, stop being so weird. I'll see you at home."
Dib glared at Zim "I don't trust you, Zim, and if you hurt her, I will kill you."
Zim smirked as Dib walked off, and then looked out at the rain. He really didn't want to go out in it, because it would burn his skin. Sam walked out into the rain.
"Well, aren't you coming?"
"Um . . .in a minute. . ." he had no choice. He had to walk out.
He was able to handle it for a few seconds, but then he felt pain as the rain literally burned at his skin like acid.
"AAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!" he ran back to his spot under the awning and breathed heavily, grateful that the pain was going away.
He had closed his eyes for a few seconds and felt a hand over his, and his eyes shot open.
"You know, if you can't handle the rain, you could have just said something." She teased. "I don't have an umbrella so if you want, I'll wait with you until the rain stops."
He thought about that for a second, but then walked to the other side of the awning, away from her.
"No. go away, I want no one."
"You want me to go away? Are you sure you don't want me to wait with you? You might get bored."
Zim had to get rid of her. He walked up to her and pushed her down. "I SAID I DON'T WANT YOU TO STAY! NOW GO!" he yelled.
She stood up, angry, and walked down the stairs.
"You know, maybe people would accept you more if you stopped acting like such a jerk!"
"Jerk?! what's that supposed to mean?!"
she began walking away, but turned back to answer "You're supposed to be the superior race, so you figure it out on your own!"
"superior race. . .HEY WAIT A MINUTE! SAM COME BACK HERE! WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY 'SUPERIOR RACE'?!"
she was walking, and she wasn't turning back. Zim couldn't run after her because of the rain, and she knew it. Zim pulled something out of his pocket and a screen with GIR appeared on it.
"GIR, I'm at the human skool. Come and get me. use the new craft I built. AND LEAVE THE MILKSHAKE AT HOME!!!"
GIR nodded and the screen went black.
That evening, Zim spent hours down in his lab, but he wasn't working on anything, he was thinking.
'What did she mean by 'superior race'? does she think I'm an alien? And why did Sam tell Dib that she'd see him at home? Is she living in their house? And why is she being so nice to me when she is the Dib-human's mate?" Zim sighed.
Zim decided to go to bed, and with much trouble, slipped into a light sleep. He awoke early the next morning, just before dawn, and walked into the kitchen. It was so early, that even GIR was still sleeping. He walked over to the backpack that he had tossed next to the sofa when he had gotten home from school the day before. He unzipped it and pulled something out, and then laid down on the sofa. He hadn't meant to fall asleep, and he awoke to see GIR smiling over him, his usual much-too-hyper-and-happy-for-the-morning attitude, as usual.
"Ooooo. . .what's that?" GIR asked, tugging at the shirt Zim was wearing over his other clothes.
Zim looked down and then back at GIR. "nothing. How much time do I have before I must go to. . .skool?" he asked.
"You have two hours! I'm gonna eat ice cream!" GIR informed him, headed towards the kitchen.
"Two hours. . ." Zim repeated, quietly. 'It must be just near dawn then.'
He removed the black shirt with the skull on the front, and put it on the table, and then began working. He had a lot to do, and a lot to plan, and he only had two hours to do it all. This would be his greatest and hopefully most successful invention yet. And he wouldn't let Dib ruin this one. . .
