"AAAAAAAH!" All the kids in class screamed in horror as Zim revealed the contents of the cart. One boy fainted.
"Zim… that's…" Dib started, eyes wide with shock.
"I know," Zim said. "GAZE upon it with your EYES!"
As they stared at it, some began coughing. Others broke out into a red rash. Some developed runny noses and red eyes. The boy who fainted had a very high fever. Eventually, all of their symptoms intertwined into the same affliction: the measles.
Only Ms. Bitters, Dib, and Zim were unaffected by the virus. Dib was immunized, Zim was merely immune, and Ms. Bitters was… well, one can only guess.
"Zim… what were you THINKING?" Dib cried. "How did you get the measles virus into that thing, anyway?"
"AHAHAHAHAHA! I am going to WIN the science fair!" Zim chuckled. "It is, after all, a SCIENCE project!"
"True Zim," Ms. Bitters noted, "a childhood disease is science-related, and your project is the most scientific in the class. However, viruses are not allowed in skool. I'm afraid you're disqualified."
"WHAT? DISQUALIFIED?" Zim fell to his knees. "NOOOOO!"
"Class is dismissed early," Ms. Bitters announced. "Somebody go get the nurse."
As Dib walked home, he pondered aloud how Zim could have possibly gotten the virus into such a form. "That was the stupidest thing I've ever seen. But perhaps I've underestimated Zim…"
Meanwhile, said alien was walking back to his base, laughing all the way. "Stupid, STINKING humans! Now I am one step CLOSER to taking over this STUPID planet!" Just then, a squirrel stopped in front of him. "What do YOU want?" Zim demanded. In response, the squirrel scurried up his leg and perched atop his shoulder.
All of a sudden, Zim began to feel funny. Had the virus affected him, too? No, it was lethargy – lightheadedness… Zim picked up the squirrel and began to pet it. "Oh Earth creature, your fur is so soft," he cooed, rubbing the poor animal against his green face. It bit his gloved finger.
"OW! Stupid THING!" He dropped the squirrel, which ran away. He blinked and looked around. "OK, that was weird…"
