Disclaimer: If I owned Invader Zim would I really be writing a fan fic?

Author's Note: Okay, I really like how my Dib fic turned out and I'm glad you all liked it too. Let's see if I can't do that again. This one is really really short, but I like it how it is so sorry. If I make it more than a one shot than maybe the chapters will get longer, but for now just deal with this.

Waiting

"Stay there Gaz, I'll be right back..."

So she stayed. She waited for her brother as the world around her crumpled. She waited as the hideous Irken Ship crashed through the ceiling of her home. She waited as the house support beam severed her lower half.

And now she lay bleeding on the ground, waiting, just like she had been told. Did you know this would happen? Did you know they would destroy our home? Our world?

The pain was less and more now. Her body was completely numb but her mind was racing. I should've cared more, I should've fought alongside him, I should've turned off my stupid game once in awhile.She tightened her grip around the now-shattered GS2.

How long had it been now? A minute, ten minutes, an hour? Time didn't matter anymore. Life didn't matter anymore. What was life? She couldn't remember, shouldn't remember, wouldn't remember.

There were flashing lights and lasers above her home. Smoke from fires, screams of both humans and Irkens alike, that was all that filled the air. She didn't want to end like this, she didn't want to die alone with nothing but pain and destruction around her.

There were footsteps in her home now, she could see little black boots and silver robot legs running around. None of them bothered glancing in the direction of the shattered wall. "There's no life here, move out."

Gaz wanted to cry out, just to have them end this, but no noise would come from her mouth.

The screams outside subsided and Gaz assumed they had all moved on to a new neighborhood. She could hear a soft pattering of shoes on concrete running towards her. Her eyes were open but no longer would focus, she could feel a hand in her hair and a strange sensation across her stomach.

"Dib?" she choked out.

"Not quite," came the last voice she was expecting. She tried choking out 'Zim' but couldn't as the world around her went black.


She pulled her hair back into a ponytail and readjusted her pendant. It was newer now and much better than her old one. This one had the skull of an Irken as opposed to the old hideous human one. She smoothed out her pants that covered her metallic lower half and looked in the mirror.

"Not bad for someone who was dying six months ago," she whispered to no one in particular. But I'm still dying now...

"Captain? Are you ready?" A short Irken soldier asked. She sneered and shrugged before pulling a laser out of her collection.

"Fine, let's just get this over with."


Gaz stood next to her savior (Zim) on the platform in front of the crowd. A prisoner with a bag thrown loosely over his head was pulled violently through the crowd and thrown at her feet. The bad was pulled from his head and he gasped for air. The girl placed the barrel of her gun to his forehead before he looked up.

"Gaz! You're alive!" Dib exclaimed as he saw his sister. Her expression was cold and sinister.

"You have no idea how long I've waited for you..." she said as she pulled the little, silver trigger...

Author's Ramble: So there it is. What do you think, should I keep this a one shot or attempt a chapter 2? Before answering that just remember that it may take awhile to get a chapter 2 posted.

Now please review, and please don't flame. Constructive Criticism yes, Flaming NO!
