Invader Zim- The End?

Chapter 26

As Zim clambered out of the ship he caught his shirt on the side. When he leapt down he found that his uniform was lifted up behind him and his bare back was showing. The Irken hurriedly turned around as far as he could, tugging on the top of his uniform in an attempt to free it. "Bloody Irk," he mumbled under his breath. As he pulled it off the edges tore and ripped. Zim looked down at his uniform. It was maimed and uneven, it was destroyed and completely unprofessional. The Irken frowned and tugged on it some more, to try and pull it down a little bit more. But to no avail. His shirt was torn so much that part of his belly was showing. The Irken frowned but tried to ignore it nonetheless.

Zim walked around to the back of his ship where Gaz was fiddling with the cloaking device. She closed a hatch and turned to him, wiping her brow in the process. "Ok," she said. "I think that that should do it. I've done more than half of the repairs and, hopefully, it'll work properly. Anyways you—…" Gaz didn't speak anymore just then.

The small Irken was somewhat confused. "Why have you stopped talking Gaz-human?"

Gaz pointed to him, her arm tight against her side. "When did that happen?" She raised one of her eyebrows at him. Zim looked down at his torn shirt and turned really green. Gaz wasn't really sure what that green was from. It could have been from anger, embarrassment or a bunch of other things. So she couldn't be sure.

"I slipped…" Zim's head rose and he put his hands on his hips, anger plastered on his face. Though it looked to be straining to stay there. "Besides, why should you care human? You should be honoured to even gaze upon the mighty face of Zim, let alone his belly! Feel honoured!"

Gaz raised a brow. "Ok, you really need to stop doing that."

"Doing what?"

"Referring to yourself in the third person. It's creepy… You're creepy."

"Yes… I sure am…"

The girl sighed and went back to the cloaking disguise machine… thingy… yes… that's it… (Dam… I need to eat something…) She tweaked with a few wires and then flipped a switch. "Ok. I think that that should do it for now. It should work properly now. Just use it like you normally would and you'll be able to disguise yourself to look just like a Bludgeon. Got it?"

"Yes, yes. Out of my way human." Zim pushed Gaz to the side, which made him receive a hard stare on her part with a baring of glinting, white teeth. But Zim ignored that and walked right over to the screen of the machine. He activated it and selected a Bludgeon disguise that he felt would best suit him.

The cups of the back of the ship folded around him and encased him in that familiar metal bubble. Gaz watched, still safe on the outside, as the purple metal began to glow and shake the entire ship. Lights from the crack seeped out and illuminated the front most part of her body as he waited for the small Irken to immerge. And when he did she was surprised at what kind of disguise he had chosen. Truth be told… he still knew nothing about getting a good disguise on unfamiliar territory.

He resembled Gir when in his dog costume slightly. There was a zipper in the front of the blue suit and it looked far too fat to be a Bludgeon from what Gaz had heard of. The legs looked and sounded as though they were mechanical, which made sense seeing as a normal Bludgeon was probably the size of Red and Purple, perhaps taller. So it was logical that Zim would have to use something like that to make himself stand better in the suit. There was a rectangular peephole where Zim's eyes could see through and when the mouth opened Gaz could see that there was a wire connecting to the roof of the mouth to make it do so. Zim's costume had a Bludgeon battle suit on, or so Gaz assumed. (She was right) Plus, the suit had two right hands. There were also stitches all over the suit where the fabric over the metal had closed up.

Inside, Zim was hooked up to a series of wires and whatnot. He was suspended just a little bit over the base so that he was able to move about without the ground to limit his movements. His arms were linked to large metallic cufflinks that wove around his arms like a snake. The same process was at his legs. These made sure that whatever movement he made was recorded and used so that the machine disguise could move. There were also wires that connected to his head so that if the movement recorders, somehow, became inoperable, then he would just be able to think of what to do and the machine would do it. This made sure that he wouldn't look suspicious if he stopped moving. Then there was a speaker that pushed sound out of the mouth of the machine.

"Well? What do you think? Is it not amazing? Does it not blow your mind?" Although Gaz could see his mouth she could tell that Zim was smiling just from the tone of his voice. The costume was so bad that Gaz couldn't help it but snicker.

"Yeah… It's… It blows my mind alright." She snickered again. "Right into the next star system." Then she fell to the ground, one hand on her stomach, the other on her forehead. And then she laughed. She just laughed at the Irken's costume, he seemed so proud of it and then it was so ridiculous. And it was good that she was able to laugh like that after all that had happened so far in their little adventure. It was apparent that she needed a good laugh to make her feel like her old self again. Just to shake off the feeling of dread that was all around; that's what the laughter did for her.

"Gaz-human? Are you all right? Is your belly paining you?" Zim's suit stepped forward one foot and the arm came out.

Gaz stopped. She was on her back, using the base of her spine to sit on as she stayed there. Zim had stopped so suddenly when she stopped laughing. Now they were both stopped in a pose that was quite uncomfortable. Gaz was sitting on the ground her eyebrows raised. Zim was in the Bludgeon suit his arm out towards her and in a motion stepping towards her.

W.I.E.R.D…

Gaz stood up and brushed herself off and Zim reverted back to a standing pose. Gaz turned to him once but then turned back, too confused to say anything.

"We'd… we'd better be going…" Zim motioned to her.

"Yeah…" Gaz followed him to the direction where the city was meant to be.

Brooke: Yeah, yeah. I know, I know. Short chapter again. You're probably all thinking, why isn't she updating all that much any more? This is like the first update in a month! It's cos I'm very busy. I had exams and stupid shit to get done and stuff like that. Plus, I've been tending to my new account on DeviantArt, which I made at the beginning of January, so that explains the lack of updates. Yeah, so if you want to see my account then go to and then search 'empty brooke'. There'll be a bunch of things there. Comics pages mostly, you can click on those cos those are mine. Then just go to my account form there… Sorta simple… lol Expect more updates!

J5- More Reviews! The first one comes from Dlbn. Meh… What's up doc?

Brooke: Glad that you liked the Gaz/Zim fight. I did too. I wanted to make it fun and likable and stuff like that so I'm glad you liked it. :)

Jack: Now we've got one from The Illustrious Crackpot.

Brooke: Hi again T.I.C. (kind of like that blue superhero… lol) I'm very happy that the Kai story worked out, I found it to be weird when I first brainstormed it up. Tak says 'maybe with magic…' Frig… I don't remember where I wrote that. Oh well. We're getting back to Bludge Wars so don't worry. And, between my readers and me, magic becomes a huge part in the story later on. After all, IZ isn't just aliens, it's ghosts and zombies too! And vampire piggies!

Zim: Now the more smarter human, Summersword Axepaw reviews to Zim's great story!

Brooke: Yes! So freaky! And no. If I said that the next chapter was about Gir and Idu then I lied to you. Tee hee. If you want to know what it's about then figure this out. GGGAB (Hint: If you go to my account on DeviantArt then, close to the back, on the very last page, there's two pictures from this story. One of them'll give you the answer!)
