Disclaimer: I do not own Invader zim, though I wish I did.

p.s. sequel to The Gorgon

The colision sent me flying back twenty feet. I landed on the ground hard. I couldn't move my right arm which was a problem because I was still holding the sword. I sat up and tried to pry the Gorgon from my hand, but the thing must of been stuck to my skin because I couldn't get it to budge. Then I saw the snake come around for a second blow. I picked myself up and saw that all of my right arm was limp. I still stood my ground, ready for anything that came.

Just then I felt somthing grab my shirt collar and I was lifted up in the air just as the snake came rushing past. I looked up and saw it was Zim, only instead of his usual spike legs, he was using a jetpack.

" No need to thank me for my daring rescue of your sorry ass".

" What the HELL are you talking about? I nearly got killed because you left me here with this( I held the sword up) piece of grap".

Zim was getting steamed and his face was turning orange( which must be his way when gets pissed). " The Gorgan is not a piece of grap as you so say. You must of not gave it a DNA sample".

I looked at Zim with a puzzled looked. " DNA sample? What you mean like my hair or saliva?

Zim shook his head. " I mean that the only way that the Gorgan will be of any use to you is if you stick it in your arm".

" Are you out of your damn mind. This things like three feet long for christs sake. And any way even if I wanted to do that, which I don't, I can't get the freaking thing out of my hand". Zim looked down at my hand saw that it was not moving. Then, while holding me with one hand, reached forward and grabed three of my fingers. " Zim what are you-". Zim pulled my fingers back far enough to touch my wrist. " AAAHHHHH"! The pain was unbearable. It was like someone had just stabbed my hand over and over again.

" Sorry about that, but it was necessary". He held up the Gorgan in his hand.

I felt like hitting him right then and there, but I knew he was right, still "OUCH"!

I raised my left arm. " Give it to me". I was able to breath out. Zim handed over the sword and I looked at it. Then I drove it into my arm.

There was no pain I could remember or maybe it's just my nerves gave out, but whatever the reason, as soon as that sword went through my skin I knew somthing had happened. Just like when the sword version of the Gorgon poped out, a very bright light shined. But insted of a sword coming out like last time, my entire right arm started to glow. Then my arms skin started to turn red, then from where I had stuck the sword in my arm, a red crystal like coating was forming around my entire arm, then it traveled up my shoulder and then it coverd part of my face where it stopped. I could move my arm again was the first good thing that came out of having this thing.

" Pretty impressive huh, It creates a thin layer of ruby shielding that is almost impossible to break". I could tell Zim was enjoying tooting his own horn.

" Alright alright enough talking Zim. Time to get back down there and beat the hell out of that snake".

" I agree". Then he dropped me.

" What the hell"?

I hadn't realized how far up we were up until then. I was traveling(more like falling) at a pretty fast rate and I could see the snake jumping up straight a me. " Alright you overgrown centipiede, you want some of me, then here take it". I pulled my arm back and shot forward like some rocket was attached to my arm. The snake opened it's mouth and I plunged right in it. Only I didn't stop there, I went past the mouth and through the metal barrings, wires and circuts. It was like nothing could stop me, I was on fire. No seriously I was on fire. Somewhere along the line I must of hit a gas line. Then I bustted through to the other side and hit the ground whith a "boom" making a huge crater. I had just enough time to turn around and see the snake blow-up in flames.

" Oh yeah! Who kicks ass now? Whoo"! I was so pumped up I didn't even notice Zim until stood beside me.

" Not a bad job. Though you could've took it a little easy".

I looked at the wrekage then at Zim. " Got the job done though, didn't I"? Then I coughed up blood.

" Sorry, there are side effects to using the Gorgon too much". Then he looked down at his feet. " And sorry about the whole finger breaking thing".

I punched him in the soulder. " It's cool man. I mean we just our Hi Skool". Me and Zim turned around to see that nearly half the school was destroyed. " More or less".

" We better go see if Gaz and Dib are ok". We both ran over to where Zim had left them, but instead of finding them lying on the ground, we found someone standing in front of the blocking our way. The guy had on a hooded cloak on so we couldn't tell what he looked like.

" My my, you two certanly made quick work of my little pet didn't you". His voice sent chills through my spine. Zim on the other hand didn't even flinch.

" Step aside or I will be foced to exterminate you". Zims spikes poped out as he said this.

Then all of a sudden the cloaked figure was standing right in front of Zim. He then raised his hand and struck Zim with lightning fast speed. I saw Zim get knocked back into a wall. Then when I turned back, the cloaked figure was right beside me. He brought his hand to my stomach and sent me flying as well into the wall.

" You four have twenty-four hours to prepare". He said

" Pre-prepare for what"? Zim was able to choke out.

" To die". Then the cloaked figure disapered.

Great, I thought, we just got done defeating a giant snake and now we have to worry about some guy killing us. " Could this day get any worse"?

" Probably". Answered Zim.
