Ch16: Dr. Lep Sunn

Zeke stumbled into the kitchen after he recovered. Once he was 100 better he was gonna make her pay. He should've known she would do that. Turning the corner he saw Maz, that big headed kid, and Zim moving stuff towards the door…in fact it looked just like his stuff!

"Maz! What do you think you're doing!"

Maz tossed one of his bags towards him. "You're getting out of my house Zeke! That's what."

"You can't kick me out! Plus you're not even old enough to live by yourself. If I'm leaving you're leaving too."

"But Maz won the duel!" Dib protested, "That means she gets to stay!"

"But…"

"No buts human stink!" Zim interrupted.

"How about you shut up shorty!" Zeke yelled. He was not going to take crap from this guy. Zeke smirked when he saw Zim's fist ball up. The little guy was going to fight him.

"How dare you mock Zim's height! You don't know the power you're toying with! I am an Invader! I…" Dib threw a suit case at Zim, shutting him up. Zeke walked out of the room to make a call.

"where do you think he's going?" Maz questioned.

About a half hour later Zeke came back into the room to find the TV on, Maz and Dib sleeping on the couch and Zim with a marker in his hands.

"What are you doing?" asked Zeke.

"Nothing!" A startled Zim exclaimed hinding the marker behind his back. "I'm not going to draw all over the Dib-human's face!"

"…ok…well just don't do anything to Maz's face. I'm gonna watch TV." He sat down on the couch and put on some show where this guy was slaughtering people. Zim had continued with doodling on Dib's face. As soon as he was done he looked back at Zeke.

"Zeke monster, why do you want to remove the jelly girl from this establishment?"

"What did you just call me?" He gave Zim a weirded out look.

"Just answer Zim!"

"Shut up!" was Zeke's response and he returned to watching TV.

Just then the doorbell rang waking up Dib and Maz.

"Good thing you woke up Maz." Said Zeke as he walked towards the door. "There's someone here to see you."

"gasp! Zeke if you called child protection services I swear I'll…" Zeke opened the door and in steped a tall, blonde man with nearly milk white skin in a white doctor's jacket, a blue shirt, and a striped tie came in. He spotted Maz and ran towards her and, much to Zim and Dib's surprise, picked her up and hugged her.

"Maz! I was so worried! Are you ok?" Said the man hugging her.

"I'm fine, but why…?"

"Zeke, I'm so glad you found her. Maz, what on Earth were you thinking! Running off like that, I swear…"

"Wait!" Zim shouted looking confused "By the Tallests, somebody tell Zim what's going on!" He commanded.

"Who are you?" Dib asked the man who put Maz down.

"I'm Dr. Lep Sunn." he smiled. "And you young man have Marker all over your face."

"How do you know Maz?" Dib asked still not realizing that he had marker on his face.

"I'm a good friend of her father's."

"Of course he didn't come! Some father…" Maz grumbled.

Lep got down on his knees so he could see eye to eye with her "Maz, you can't live here all alone. You need to come home."

"No, I won the duel. I get to stay."

"What duel?" Lep looked back at Zeke.

"The Zeke-monster and Jelly girl dueled! There was popcorn, and fish, and she beat him!" Zim exclaimed. Lep looked at Zim and, if it was even possible, turned a paler shade of white.

"Z…Zim…"He stuttered. He shared glances with Zeke.

"Yeah!" Maz exclaimed. "This is my new friend Zim! He has green skin disease just like Zeke! He's neat!" She hugged him and smiled she wasn't going to tell anybody that he was really an alien.

"Let go of Zim before I saw your legs off!" Maz, who wanted to keep her legs, let go.

"And this is Dib! He has a big head and he's all into the paranormal and stuff! Aint he cool?" She said hugging Dib as well.

"Hey! My head's not big!"

"Maz…" Lep started to protest.

"Lep! I like it here! I have new friends, a house, and I don't have to worry about being miserable all the time. Plus, what do I have to go back to? Zeke and his friends are mean to me, I hate that house, and Dad is never home at all! All he stinkin' cares about is Zeke! Lep, can't I stay here?"

Lep sat down and thought for awile "sigh Zeke, you wanted to duel, and you got it. Now you're going to have to deal with the outcome. You're going home and get the rest of your belongings and moving here."

"WHAT!" Both Zeke and Maz exclaimed.

"So she gets to stay?" Dib asked with much enthusiasm.

"Yes, Dib. She gets to stay. Now why don't you guys hang out while I make dinner, and you can take that marker off your face." Lep walked into the kitchen.

"Marker?" Dib gave Zim an accusing look.

"Take that Zeke!" Maz exclaimed.

"Shut up Maz!" Zeke stormed into the kitchen as well.

In the kitchen…

"I can't believe you're letting her stay, Lep! She can't just do this! Plus with Zim…"

"Shh! I know, I know…I don't want her involved with anything that moron does either. I still can't believe it. How…how in the world did she pick the one place on this entire planet he was on? What are the odds of that?" He just couldn't comprehend how this could happen.

"sigh I don't know…all I know is that Dad is not going to like it."

"Cop has never been worried about Maz before. Why would he worry now?"

"No, I mean he's not going to like the fact that we're near this guy."

"Yeah, you're right…" Lep agreed.
