Chapter 11 arrives! Woo!!! And because of my happiness, I'm going to have a quick interview with our favorite idiot that comes 3th place to Gir, who comes 1st, and Purple who comes 2nd, ZIM!

Zim: Thank you! I know I'm amazing right?

Me: Yes well Zim. This is going to be real short so I'm going to start, and end, this with one question.

Zim: Throw it at me! I the amazing ZIM can handle anything!

Me: What's the meanest thing you've ever done?

Zim: Uh... eh.. That will probably have to be the time I made the filthy Dib human smell like that nasty bologna stuff...

Me: cracks up Y-Your serious?

Zim: You've done better?

Me: Oh yeah. A lot better.

Zim: Oh, well then what is it?

Me: I got mad at this one kid so when he was out with his friends I snuck in his home, killed his parents, turned them into soup, and fed it to the kid when he got home!

Zim: Uhhh. O.o;;; Okay? I think I'm going to be leaving now. slowly backs towards exit and runs out

XD Aw man did I get him good! No, I really didn't do that. But this teaches Zim a lesson... watch more south park! That's what I got it from. Now for the real story! Enjoy! Trumpets play as curtains rise

Dib jumped from the roof and slid down the rain pipe, "Gaz! There's an alien in our backyard!"

"You mean besides you?" Gaz called from the livingroom to Dib outside.

Dib ignored it and glared at Caline as she struggled to keep balance on her own two feet.

"What do you want, alien scum?"

"I want what you want," Caline said cooly as she finally grabbed balance. A screen floated out of the ship and in front of Caline, "Greetings, Dib," said Renlia through the monitor. Dib replied with a small squeak, he was too shocked to say anything else, let alone scared. "I'm not here to take your planet, no. I'll explain everything to you now." As Renlia explained everything to Dib, he just nodded with his mouth still unable to close with his disbelief. So once he realizes the main idea for him to swallow his pride and work with Caline, Dib thought it was pretty cool. He'll finally win. He finally has a weakness. It's all so simple now. Caline stood there strait, not moving as if she were a statue.

"Do you get the plan now, Dib?"

Dib nodded.

"Very well, now I shall leave you to your work."

Dib nodded again and looked back down at Caline. Caline nodded, the first time she's moved a muscle since Renlia's voice came through that monitor. Renlia finally left and Caline finally loosened up. Dib just stared at her, still trying to sink this all in.

"So, we have this, 'skool' program thing tomorrow, right?"

"Uh, yeah." said Dib, still confused.

"We should hit the hay tonight, but I'm starving! You mind if I grab some food?"

"N-no not at all! But before we go in... what are we going to do with your ship?"

"Oh that? Simple!" Caline said as she snapped her fingers and tentacles stretched from the back of the ship and it walked itself in to the garage. As the ship was walking, Salem jumped from the driver's seat and flipped next to Caline. They all walked in as the garage closed itself on a tentacle of the ship's and it ripped a huge hole in the door.

"What are we to have?" Caline murmured to herself as she inspected the cabinets for something to eat. Dib sat at the table next to Salem, who just sat there like a stiff rock. Dib was kinda nervous sitting right next to a robot from another planet (I would be too...). But he tried to put up with it.

"AH-HA!" Caline said as she pulled out a box of mac and cheese. Dib watched her do so and then looked back at Salem. They both just sat like that for about ten minutes til' Caline sat down at the table with her dinner. Soon as she took her first bite, Membrane walked in.

"Son I'm here to- WHAT THE HECK IS THAT THING SITTING AT OUR TABLE?!"

"Uhh it's um. She's uh..."

"I'm the new neighbor from next door. The name's Caline. Dib and I were working on Halloween costumes and I tried on his brilliant alien idea! Isn't it cool?" That was the only excuse she could think of at the moment. Brilliant, no. But it still helped.

"What about the robot?"

"That's my... lllllittle sister! Yeah, that's my little sister!"

Salem shot Caline a glare, he's a guy, not a girl!

"Ah yes, fascinating. Well, I was just dropping in to say goodbye. You see the lab is calling me back and I probably won't be home for at least three weeks." They both nodded as Membrane left and went out the door.

Caline gave a low whistle, "What a close one!"

"Yeah, but now because of that, we need to find you a disguise."

"Ok."

Dib began thinking to himself and turned to the door, then he heard a high pitched charging sound and looked back at Caline. But she wasn't there. It was someone else. A girl with black hair and blue bangs that grew out to the sides of her face, and dark purple shaded eyes with a half black half white shirt and blue-jeans with old sneakers.

"Who are you? Where'd the alien chick go?!"

"Calm down, it's me, Caline."

"Oh..."

"Yeah.." She nodded her head as if calling him an idiot. Then she looked across at the table to Salem, "We need you a disguise... get over here." Salem slumped out of the seat and obediently stood by the chair Caline was sitting in. Caline opened the top of Salem's head and moved around a few wires. Within a flash, Salem had become a black shadowed wolf-hound figure with piercing red eyes like Mi-Mi's. Dib watched and flinched win the wolf gave a grin, the only thing that wasn't black on his body was his eyes, and his teeth, which shone brilliantly in any dim light. Caline rubbed his back fur and smiled happily, "I've always wanted a dog!"

Dib thought it was creepy at first, but after a few minutes Salem grew on him. Salem's ears folded back as he sensed a presence in the room. It was Gaz, she had her face buried into her GS2. Salem began growling at her and Gaz stopped. She gave a snarl in return. Salem didn't stop though, it was a snarl down, and both were tied. Caline tried to tell Salem to stop. "Salem stop it." But he wouldn't. This SIR unit was pretty convinced she was an enemy. Then Caline got irritated and screamed, "SALEM YOU DUMB DOG!!!" At that, Salem lowered his head and lay down whimpering. Already he didn't like the phrase, Dumb Dog.

Caline sat on the couch and Salem curled up beside her as she gently stroked his head with one hand and clicked through the channels with the other. "These shows are so boring! Well... at least I get to watch anything at all..." Caline mumbled to herself. Dib walked in from upstairs, clearly he was on his computer. "We better hit the hay." he said. Caline turned off the T.V. and lie down, Salem fixed himself comfortable stretched out beside her on the couch. Dib went back upstairs after turning all the lights off.

A few hours pass and Caline still can't sleep, for she is too afraid of her nightmares. But she couldn't help it. Staring into the darkness for hours on end, it was 3:00 A.M. and she wasn't sure if she could sleep at all. Slowly her eyes closed and she drifted off.

A few minutes later, Caline had to use the bathroom. She got up and because of the fear of her nightmares... she took a stick with her. Slowly she crept upstairs and did her business, but on her way down she heard a crash from the kitchen. Caline thought it was Salem, but she looked at the couch and Salem was right there sound asleep. She made a gulp and walked into the kitchen, holding the stick as if ready to hit something with it. Once she saw noone was there she turned around. Right up in her face, hanging upside down was the hideous creature. Caline was afraid to move. She dropped the stick as three more of them appeared. All of them staring at her with hungry eyes.

Okay, finally done. Took me a while thought yes it's probably short... Well catch the next one! Seee yaaa!!!
