The Only Believer

Chapter 1

The Friendships of Moths and Wolves

Dib could hardly pay attention in skool. His mind was clouded with thoughts of him and the other eyeball confronting ZIM and dissecting him, proving to the world that he was right. In fact, his mind was so clouded that he didn't even hear the bell, or see his classmates leaving the room, all talking about what they were going to do when they got home. It took five minutes for his sister to walk in, pissed. "Let's go!" she growled.

At that moment he snapped out of his daydream and into the real world. But not completely. "Um, okay Gaz. Let's go." He still didn't get up. After a few seconds, he allowed his sister to grab his wrist and drag him home. He finally came back to the world around him when he saw the figure sitting on the front steps of the Membrane household.

She was a young woman around fifteen years old. Her long, honey brown was tied into a ponytail to keep it out of her eyes. Not that she had to worry about that, for her eyes were already covered by a pair of dark glasses. She wore a form-fitting dark grey t-shirt with a design screen-printed on it that looked somewhat like an eye, and baggy camouflage pants. Covering her feet were black steel-toed combat boots. At the sight of the two children coming up the walkway, she stood up and strode towards them.

She looked at them for a moment. Dib was only five the last time she saw him, and his hair was wilder than ever. Gaz looked a bit angrier than she did when she was younger. She shrugged. "Excuse me," she asked, even though she knew already, "Does one of you go by the name, 'Dib'?"

Her male cousin stepped up. "That would be me." He declared proudly. Gaz stayed silent. She would rather not get mixed up in the insanity her brother was getting into. As for the strange girl… she had a vague memory of seeing her before.

"So," Dib started, "How about we go inside?" The girl nodded and they walked into the domicile. Gaz went into the kitchen to get a soda, and Dib and the girl sat on the couch. After a while of staring at the blank TV screen, the girl said something.

"Sorry I didn't introduce myself." She apologized, "I'm Agent Greylycan, from the Swollen Eyeball Net. I'm here to investigate your alien claims. Can you tell me a bit about this 'alien'?"

So Dib started from the very beginning, when he heard news of the invasion from his satellite. Then he explained how six months later a kid named ZIM came into the classroom pretending to be a normal human being- not to mention his psychotic, talking green dog. Then he went on to explain all of the plans that have been tried and failed, from attempting to get a crazy paranormal investigator named Bill to believe him to planting a spy camera in his base. She just listened, taking notes and nodding occasionally. "So," he asked, "Do you understand?"

She took a deep breath. "It sounds quite real to me, Mothman. There's only one way to be sure."

Dib stared at her. "What?"

"You'll have to show me this ZIM and his little green dog. Only then can I start to draw conclusions."

He nodded. "How about you come visit my skool? He sits a few desks across from me."

She sat on the couch in thought. "Y'know, that might just work! I'll come with you to skool tomorrow."

Then Dib looked at his watch. "OH! Mysterious Mysteries is starting! Wanna watch?"

Greylycan grinned. "Of course! I haven't missed an episode yet!" The two of them got the TV on just in time to catch the end of the theme song. Then Dib and Grey sat in silence, watching the show.

----End of Chapter One! I hope you like this chappie, Dibsthe1! Next time- Agent Greylycan goes to skool to discover more about her cousin's alien! Tune in next time- same Dib time, same Dib station!----
