Chapter 7 Gir
*again not ZATR, Zim is just feeling guilty, hehehe thanks SO much for the reviews…you have No idea how happy it makes me for people to actually read and like my work! *
Zim pushed the dead irken off of him.
He looked into her cold, lifeless eyes.
"Zim?"
He twitched his antennae and turned around. Dib was leaning on a tree. He was a little bruised, but there seemed to be no serious wounds.
He twitched his antennas trying to scent any wounds on him or Gaz.
The smell of death hung in the air, making Zim feel nauseous.
"Are you hurt Dib human?"
"No…"
Zim stood up.
"Gaz is unconscious; I think she was hit in the head with a branch…" Dib said looking over at his sister. "We can let her rest for a while."
Zim picked up Tak in his hands.
"What are you going to do with her?" Dib asked.
Zim thought for a moment. Then a moment longer.
"I…I don't know." He said. "We can't just leave her here or my kind will be exposed."
"I guess we could bury her…" Dib offered.
"Yeah…I think that would be best."
Zim walked back to where the fight had started and picked up his disguise. He put on the jacket and sunglasses and walked back to the camp.
Dib had gone home and got two shovels from his garage.
They spent the next hour making a hole.
When they had a whole deep enough, they put the purple eyed irken in and filled the whole back up.
Zim stared at the dirt ple and tried to hold back his tears.
This was my fault…I did this…
…
Dib looked at his friend.
Zim had tears building in his eyes but quickly swiped them away.
"I'm sorry Tak…I didn't mean to…to…" Zim broke off.
Dib put his arm around Zim comfortingly.
"It's not your fault dude…She would have killed you just as fast, if not faster."
Zim swiped away his hand. "Thanks, that makes me feel A LOT better."
"No prob!" said Dib clueless.
Suddenly Gaz stirred.
She woke up and walked over to where the boys were standing. She was still holding Mimi in her hands.
"What did I miss? And why does my head hurt like crap?"
"You were hit in the head with a branch…" Dib explained.
"Where's Tak?"
Dib pointed to the dirt pile.
"YOU KILLED HER?"
"No, her PAK broke." Zim said plainly.
"Oh…well at least I got her robot."
Zim looked at the robot, pleased.
Gaz handed over the SIR unit.
Zim opened up the head and took out a small chip. Then he placed in the chip that he had been carrying in his pocket and stuck it into a slot.
The SIR unit's eyes lit up a blue/ teal color.
"MY MUFFINS!" the little robot screeched.
The robot looked around at his surroundings.
His eyes laid on Zim.
"HI MASTA! Where are my muffins?"
"Hi Gir!" Zim said, smiling.
"What happened…did the muffins explode? Oh I like eggplant…!" Gir said getting out of Zim's arms.
Gir had some trouble walking in his new body. He looked down at the big robot arm that he wielded.
"OH BIG!"
"Yes Gir…do you remember what happened?"
"UMMM yes! Wait no?"
"Well, the tallest tried to get rid of us by exploding our base…We found you a new body, but it's a little different. It's Mimi's."
Gir's holographic disguise turned on.
"OOOOH I'm a kit kat!"
"Umm, I think you mean kitty cat." Dib said.
Zim rolled his eyes.
Gir turned back to Zim. "Are ya gonna go beat dem up Masta?"
"Who?"
"The tallest!"
Zim paused for a moment. How am I going to do that…I can barley handle one irken let alone thousands of trained elites and soldiers…
Then his defective brain hatched a brilliant plan.
"Yeah Gir! I think I will!"
Dib and Gaz stared at Zim like he was crazy.
"Are you freaken kidding me Zim!" Gaz said.
"No, I think we can do it! I mean, we do have a secret weapon!"
"And that would be…?" Dib asked.
"Water you idiot." Gaz said hitting him on the back of the head.
"Yeah, We could use your Earth water to get revenge…Here's the plan…"
