a/n: Sorry for the long wait everybody! And apologies to System of A Down for using a song lyric of theirs. This chapter probably isn't very good, but I though it just had to be updated.
Chapter 5: Every time you drop a bomb…
Zim clenched his eyes tightly as he sat in his car three blocks away from the scientific institute; just waiting for that glorious boom. There were only ten seconds to go before the explosion.
"six.. five..four." he hissed with pleasure.
And then… nothing
"What!" he whispered in shock as his eyes shot open and he stepped on the gas and sped to the institute which was actually a big mistake on his part. He stopped the car in front of the building; there was a bomb detonator, five police cars, and an S.W.A.T. team guarding the scientists and from the corner of his eye he could clearly see that Dib was informing an officer about everything he saw! 'Drat!' Zim thought 'I should've gone around the building!' "FUCK!" he cried to the heavens and then laid face down on the horn.
"So, you knew the attempted bomber?" Detective Chowley asked as he jotted something down on his notepad.
"Yes," Dib explained, "We attended school together and were pretty much bitter enemies. I thought he was an alien and he probably is, but I'm not taking any chances."
Chowley raised an eyebrow, "Right." He muttered in a quizzical, yet nervous tone.
Suddenly, there was a loud, obnoxious beep and everyone at the site turned their heads to see that it come from a rusty van painted an ugly hue shade of blue. Dib suddenly remember that this was the van he caught a glimpse at when he saw Zim coming into the building
" Detective Chowley," he then announced, "I think you have the culprit right on target."
Zim held his breath as he shifted gears and drove away from the scene as quickly as his air-losing tires could carry him and then, he saw the S.W.A.T. team vehicle right behind him.
-again, sorry for this being kind of poorly written..I've been busy all week, but I couldn't leave this lil old story of mine hanging..
