Chapter Nine-

Rin's antenna picked up Dib's voice, and she immediately turned to face him, one of her eyes scrunched up so it was smaller than the other. ((A/N: Oo))

"Aw, you musn't speak such filthy words, human. I understand it is not appropriate in your culture? Tisk tisk..." Rin said with a smirk and a sarcastic gleam in her dark red pupils.

Dib stared back at her, eyes wide in fear. He didn't remember anything, and he had just awoken to find himself in an unfamiliar place with 5 Irken beings and no idea as to how he got there. After a moment, he finally regained his senses enough to communicate.

"Alien scum!!" he yelled. "What did you do to me!?"

Zim stepped forward and opened his mouth to say something, but was interrupted by Zim's voice as he yelled at Dib.

"Dib-Filth!!! Human-STINKBEAST!!! This is all your fault! You and your ENORMOUS HEAD!!!"

Dib glared at Zim angrily, and answered, "My head's not big!"

Rin laughed and pointed at him. "Yes it is! You look like a walking TOOTSIE POP!!!"

Zim continued angrily, "The gargantuan mass of your head threw the equation off! IT IS ALL YOUR FAULT WE ARE HERE!!!!"

Dib closed his eyes in confusion and shook his head. This was all too much. Where was he? What happened? Why was he here, and why was Zim in bonds as well?

"I'm... CONFUSED!!!!" he yelled, as he began spazzing out on the couch.

Rin watched solemnly, as Dib twitched and spazzed on the couch, and Rei stared in horror. Purple glanced at Zim, who walked over to the television. He pressed some buttons, and some wires emerged, which he then carried to the frantic human.

"Shut up, human Smeet. We need to run some tests-"

"NOOO!!" Dib yelled. He slowly stopped spazzing, regaining control of his muscles. He glared at Zim defiantly. "You won't get any of my brain-meats! They're MINE, all MINE!!!"

Dib paused lightly, and stared at Zim in confusion. After a moment, he looked over at Zim, who was still wrapped in duct tape.

"Heeeey! Why is Zim tied up too?" Dib's eyes widened, and he continued without awaiting an answer. "This is all a TRICK, ISN'T IT?? You are trying to lure me into a sense of... well... slight security! WELL, IT AIN'T GONNA WORK, IRKENS! I'M ONTO YOOOUUU...."

Zim stared at Dib, who had now slumped over and was murmuring, 'Not my brain-meats, not them... please...', and then looked over at Zim. ((A/N: Yes. I know. Very confusing....))

"Well, since this human is still delirious from whatever happened, we will have to test YOU, Clone."

Zim backed away apprehensively. "What KIND of tests?? And I am not a clone, I told you!! WHY DO YOU NOT LISTEN TO ZIM, EH? EHHH???"

Rin smiled and sat down next to Zim, and Purple did the same. Immediately, they both gripped his head, and Zim, sensing something was wrong, began squirming and wiggling around, trying to get away.

"Stop! Back off, whatya doing, get away, STOP, STOOOOP!!!" he screamed in a panic. "Release my head! Do not make me have to unleash the WRATH OF ZIM!!!!!"

Rin smiled evilly, and crooned in an ironically calming tone. "Do not worry! It is a simple process." she said as Zim came closer with the wires hanging from his hands menacingly. "We will merely connect those wires to your head, and examine some of your memories on the telly, using word association."

Zim stopped squirming and asked cautiosly, "Then why must I be restrained?"

Rin laughed out loud, and responded, "Well, there is an electrical discharge that happens when the wires are applied. Nothing to worry about, just extremely painful." Zim began squirming again. "And if you squirm like that during application, the electron flow will be disrupted and you will either turn into a brainless vegetable, or DIE. And I don't like vegetables..." ((A/N: Har har. I just attempted to sound smart. Pathetic, eh? O.o))

Zim's face paled into a mint-green shade that matched Rin's, and he began wiggling and attempting to kick Rin and Purple. "No! Don't do this, I won't let you!!! BACK OFF, SCUM!!!"

Purple sighed lightly, and asked in a voice full of mock sadness, "Why don't they ever listen? Why? Huh? Huh!?"

Rin snickered. "We are such sadists. Aren't you guys ashamed?"

Zim stared at Rin and Purple, and rolled his eyes. He crept forwards and quickly placed the wires next to Zim's head, which caused him to stop abruptly and look up in an expression that almost matched fear. Zim slowly connected the wires, and Zim winced lightly, but stopped as he realized that there was no pain. Rin released his head, and began laughing psychotically.

"HA hahahahahahahahahahaaaa!! HA HA HA HA HA AAAAH-HA! Ha ha ha h ahhh-ha HA!!! Ha ha... heh. Nyeeehhh.... that was a good one!"

Purple nodded, but couldn't say much as he was still clutching his belly, laughing uncontrollably.

Zim's eyes narrowed in anger at the trick, and his cheeks blushed into a dark, angry green. He grumbled Irken swear words under his breath as Rei walked over to the television set, and turned it on. She quickly pushed a few buttons, and a black screen came on. She looked at everyone and took a seat in the couch opposite Zim's.

Zim, Purple and Rin sat next to her, and they awaited the tests to begin.

Rei leaned forward and stared at Zim. After a moment, she said in a strong, clear voice, "Dib."

An image of Dib, smirking and holding a water balloon in his hand appeared on the screen. Zim blinked in surprise as he realised that this device did indeed show his memories.

Rin looked at the image, and looked at Dib on the couch, who seemed to be returning to reality. "Yep. That sure is Dib..."

Rei ignored Rin's comment, and she looked at Zim again. This time, she said in that same clear voice, "PAK."

An image of an Irken PAK appeared on the screen.

"Irken Empire."

An image of the Great Assigning appeared, but suddenly it was interrupted by a screen that said in Irken, "ACCESS DENIED."

Zim smirked quietly. There was no way these rebels would get ANYTHING out of him. Rei blinked lightly, and Zim looked rather dissapointed.

After a moment, Rei shrugged lightly, and continued. "Parallel dimension."

An image of Zim's city appeared on the screen, and his home, and the Skool. Everything from the other dimension appeared on the screen, and Zim commented, "Those places are not here. Well, they are, but not like THAT." he pointed at yet another image of the Skool. "See that? That is the Happy Skhool of Fun Learning. And those buildings across it? Exactly the same size and shape. And yet, they are different. That other dimension you came from is seriously twisted."

Zim looked at him oddly, but said nothing.

Rei looked at him. "Now, will you please think about the device that you meant to use to... what was it, again?"

"Send all my enemies to their well deserved DOOM???" Zim asked.

Rei nodded. "Yeah, that."

Zim looked at the screen, and after a moment the device appeared. The very same one that had caused all this. Zim grinned and pointed.

"There it is! See it? I was not lying!"

Rei nodded, and Zim stood up and walked over to the television. He turned it off, and walked over to Zim, and took off the wires. "Yes. We have seen enough proof. We beleive you."

Purple nodded lightly, as he took the wires from Zim's hands. Rin grinned broadly.

"Oh wow! This is so cool! You are from another dimension! COOL!!!" she hugged herself happily and squeed. Zim looked at her in disbelief.

"This is NOT, 'cool'! I don't WANT to be here, I wanna go BACK!!!"

Dib sat groggily up, and looked at Zim. "This is... all your fault, Zim." he said weakly, still psychologically exhausted. "If you hadn't used that STUPID device..." he shook his head unhappily. After a moment, he looked up.

"Where is Gaz?" he asked.

Purple looked at Dib. "Who?" he asked interestedly.

Dib looked around and sighed as he saw her at the other end of the couch, next to two other kids that seemed oddly familiar.

Rei looked at Gaz, and walked over to her.

"Who is this?" she asked Dib.

"My sister. Is she ok?"

Rei leaned forward to examine her. After a moment she looked up at Dib. "Yes, she's fine. She seems to be holding something..." Rei leaned forward again and moved Gaz's arms, revealing the GameSlave that Gaz was still gripping tightly.

"Hm." she muttered, as she moved to grab it. She began pulling it from Gaz's hands, but leaped back and yelped as a pale hand came from nowhere to smack hers away.

"Ow!" she cried. She stared at Gaz, and her eyes widened lightly as she saw the human girl get up.

Gaz sat up in the couch, and looked around for a moment. Sensing no immediate danger, she looked down at her GameSlave, and began playing again.

End Chapter.
