Dib needed to think fast. Zim just pulled the trigger of this ray that was aimed at him. He could sit and just die but...no! NO! That's what Zim wants! Thinking fast, Dib took off his glasses and aimed them at the ray. Just in time, the ray beam bounced off of Dib's glasses and headed straight back to Zim. Thinking fast, Zim dodged the beam but now it seemed to hit something that was on top of the radio tower's antenna. Whatever it was, it exploded.
The cages' electrical power immediately lessened to nothing. The electronics have stopped attacking all of the people. A small, silver thing jumped down from the antenna of the radio tower and landed on its face. It groaned and said,
"Aw, I wanted to explode with the amplifying thing-y!" GIR stood and walked over to Zim, while Zim started picking up the pieces of his now-destroyed amplifier. Dib easily got out of his cage, now that the electrocuting powers of the bars were gone and helped Gaz out of her cage. Then, he turned to Zim and said,
"Ha! Looks like human powers are too much for alien powers, huh Zim?" Zim didn't respond but continued picking up the pieces of his destroyed machine. He then stood and said to Dib,
"Don't think this is over yet, Dib-stink. I refuse to entertain you with mere threats that would never come true, like you always like to do, but I will say this: this is far from over." With that, Zim and GIR climbed inside their alien vehicle and sped away.
Later that night...
"The good thing about Zim's electrical attack today is that school is cancelled until everybodys electronics and stuff are returned to them, right sis?" Dib asked his sister as he enjoyed a container of handheld Dibs. Gaz, who was reading a book, looked up from her brother, nodded and went back to reading. Suddenly, a thought struck Dib and he turned back to Gaz and asked, "Hey Gaz, where did you get the book?" Gaz looked up, surprised that her brother paid attention, and answered,
"Well, uh, a friend suggested it." She got back to reading when Dib decided to pester her with another question. "Which friend?" Gaz glared at Dib and decided to ignore this question. After five more minutes of pestering, Dib decided to leave Gaz alone. After checking to make sure all of his homework was done and his bag was ready, Dib left to go to bed.
Meanwhile...
Zim sat at his drawing board, pondering as to what to do next. School was off for a while now, at least until most of the electronics were returned to their owners, so that gave Zim a little time to think/recover. He was so close today, so close! But, no matter. Zim had better ideas in mind than the electronic one anyway. Deciding to let his brain rest for a while, Zim left his lab and went to his resting quarters upstairs, whistling merrily as he went.
