Disclaimer: I own no Invader Zim. It all belongs to Jhonen or something.
PF: Okay, so... Ummm. Dib's all "Hey what are you doing here?" And I was all, "Hey it's over come back and review and stuff" So now it's all like, "All right it's the new chapter! Enjoy!"
Chapter five: Yay! More Zim!
Zim was sitting in the living room, waiting for Dib to come down so he could warn Dib about Mer being an alien. He was also busy picking bits of poop-corn out of his wig. "What do you thiknk I'm doing here? I'm sure you're aware that Mer is an alien?"
Dib grabbed a bat. "What? You still think she's an alien? She was just wearing a costume! You're so stupid you couldn't even tell that she was acting! Now get out of my house, Mysterious mysteries is almost on!" Dib went to go smack Zim with the bat.
Gaz growled. "Go play in another room. Your voices are making me sick!" She continued playing her game, but made it clear that she was angry.
"Disguise? How can she possibly fool me with a few pieces of clothing? Besides, she gave me a note, in the Irken language. PLus she contacted the Tallest with me." Zim told Dib.
Dib was confused. It was like a flash back of Tak. "How do I know you're telling the truth? You could just be jealous! After all, she used to hang around you. She just stopped that to be with me." Dib fought back. "This is the same kind of hting you said when Tak came. But, then, she was an alien. I'll see for myself but just go away."
"Stop talking about jelly! You're just changing the subject!" Zim shouted." He turned to leave. "Just remember that I warned you. She'll probably destroy you. I was just hoping you'd help me get rid of her."
Gaz got up to go to the kitchen. "Finally you're leaving. Dib, you can watch your dumb show."
Zim walked out the door, glaring at Dib and jumping onto Gir so he could just ride home. Dib was just plain confused now. He wasn't sure who to believe. He told the truth about Tak, but Mer just seemed so innocent. "hey, mysterious mysterious mysteries is on!" He forgot about it in no time and continued on his daily routine.
(Zim's house)
At Zim's house, Zim was trying to find another way to get rid of Mer. It was okay that she just ignored Zim, but it was almost like she favored Dib. Dib wasn't even the same race as her! Why should she be with him all the time. Sending her back to Irk would be doing her a favor.
"Gir, I think we should try to trick Mer into going back to Irk." Zim told Gir. He wasn't sure if he really wanted her to go, but it was best if she was out of his antennae.
"But she likes you." Gir said, jumping onto his head so he started bouncing up and dowm. "Weeeeeehooo!"
Zim laughed at the remark. "What do you mean she likes me? You mean like me like me?" Zim laughed some more and then realized what Gir meant. "That's just not right..." Zim thought. "So she's mad at me?" He considered that possibility. "Nah, I can't believe I let you trick me like that, Gir! I have got to stop listening to you."
"Either can I!" Gir bounced back onto his feet. "Wait..." Zim jumped into the trash can and disappeared. "master! Wait! I have something to tell you!" Gir started running towards the can but then turned to take some muffins out of the oven.
(Mer's house)
Mer was thinking of what she should say she discovered. She was going to completely mislead Dib if she could. Unless it was something unimportant. But before she said anything to Dib she would find out what he knew. To save his time, she would say. Then, based on what he didn't know, she would try to give him false information.
Like the main diet. Not important. But she should probably say it's things like turkey or mashed potatoes. Really, the exact opposite of the real Irken diet.
But the things she really had to twist were the planet's coordinates, the reason Zim was there and anything about the Almighty Tallest. Planet Torrac was what she would call Irk. it would be in a neighbouring galaxy and Zim would be there because he was banished. Which he was, but he didn't know that. The leaders would just be the strongest. Not that the tallest weren't strong, but that wasn't their reason for ruling.
(At skool the next morning)
Mer went to talk to Dib as quickly as she could. The sooner she was over, the better. She asked him how much he knew already and she was surprised to see how much he knew.
"Well." She said. "That's really... a lot of stuff." She proceeded to give him as much false information as she could. She also tweaked his facts the best that she could.
Afterwards Dib told her about Zim coming to his house. "It was really weird. Now I'm just confused." He admitted.
"You just have to rely on your own judgement. But Zim being who he is..." She left Dib before she even really ended the sentnce. She was just finishing the daily routine she followed. Talk to a person, then go talk to more people. It was the same thing every day
The entire class spent the morning learning about cheese. How to make cheese, why they stopped making real cheese. All the while the students are thinking, 'cheese used to actually taste good?'
Zim just glared at Dib or Mer every few minutes, sitting, glaring, sitting some more, glaring some more. If it was lunch than he usually took some of Mer's food but she wouldn't give it to him any more. So he finally brought his own food, careful to cover the Irken symbol, he decided to hide it by cutting the sandwich into tiny cubes.
Mer walked home with Dib and Gaz, only part listening to what he was ranting on about. Every time he asked what she thought, she said she totally agreed. She was going to spend some of the day at his house and see if she could mess some things up.
Mer realized that she was going to have to eat dinner with them. "Dib, do you know what we're going to have to eat for dinner?"
He shrugged. "Probably pizza or something."
Mer turned her head in disgust before turning back around and smiling widely. 'Great, I love pizza. Absolutely adore it! Come on let's hurry, I can't wait!" She was acting excited beyond reasoning. Now she had to find a way to get out of the pizza mess. That would be completely easy though. Just fifteen minutes and she could come up with a brilliant idea.
"I've never met a person that likes pizza as much as Gaz does..." Dib said, glancing at his sister.
When they got to Dib's house the news was on, it featured the president man making a speech. The speech was as follows:
"Fellow citizens, I have reviewed my actions in the past years, and noticed that I have not put as much attention to our defenses against intruders as I should have. We must raise our defense against invaders of all sorts! I made a plan, we make satellites that will orbit the earth, keeping possible space attacks out, but letting our own aircraft through. Us people here on this continent can form as many alliances as possible, to become one big country, under one leader! Now who's with me?"
The crowd cheered and roared. Dib thought for a minute. "That was an unusually long speech for president man. It must've taken a while for him to make a plan like that."
"Yeah. Sucks for those aliens Zim wants to come take over the world. Let's go laugh at Zim for a while. An evil laugh maybe." Mer suggested. They laughed for a few minutes. Long time for laughing, but when they were done they went to examine some clues leading to proving Dib was ann alien. They were going to present it to the Swollen Eyeballs.
About fifteen minutes before the pizza arrived, Mer pretended to go use the bathroom so she could contact her robo-parents. Telling them to call and arrange for her return home.
Several minutes later, her robo-mom called and said that she had to go shopping. "I'm sorry Dib, I'll see you tomorrow at skool, maybe I can get some work done at my house tonight." She drove away in her car, her robo-mother was driving of course and she sighed with relief when she got home.
"Whew, all this acting is giving me a headache. I'm going to go call Zim. I want my robot back. he's already reprogrammed the president-man's brain well enough." Mer went down to the main base and called Zim.
"Mer? what do you want? I thought you liked Dib now, go bug him!" Zim told her.
"No! That's not why I'm calling, you idiot. I'm calling because the president-man is finally through, we can control him from your base. But I'm going to change it when my robot gets here. I just need you to send him here for me." She was irritated.
Zim glared. "Why do you think I'll just sit here while you take over my planet? Why should I give you back your robot?"
"Because if you don't he'll rip off your head." She said, grinding her teeth. Mer cut the connection and waited for a while. She didn't know what she was waiting for or why. But she had nothing to do. It was Zim's planet. She had no right to be there, the only reason she was there, was because the Tallest asked her to go. They were being unusually kind that day.
(Flash back time, yay!)
Red and Purple were sitting on a couch, waiting for a person to call them. They were hardly paying attention to anything. "You know," Red said, "Zim would really hate it if another person went to help him take over the Earth."
Purple agreed. "Yeah, he would." They were silent for a while. Then Zim called for no apparent reason, telling them how glad he was that they trusted him to take over a planet all alone. When they were done Purple got an idea. "Hey, Mer!"
Mer was talking to a friend nearby. "Yes my Almighty Tallest? "She stood and faced them.
Purple gave her a job. "You are Now Invader Mer, assigned to help Zim take over the Earth. Here's a S.I.R. unit." A fully functional S.I.R. unit dropped from above them. A few Irkens cheered for Mer as she walked away to get her ship ready.
(End flash back)
Very, unusually kind. Hopefully she could forgive Zim soon. it was going to be hard to do anything if he was trying to steal the mission back. She wasn't going to just make him sit there though. She would let him do stuff.
PF: Whew! Under a week. More reviews please! You're all so good to me. I can't decide what I'm going to do for the end. I love to make you all happy, so since I'd be fine either way, do you want the world to be spared, or do yo want them to take it over? My decision in the end but I want to know what most of you want.
