Disclaimer: I do not own Invader Zim, I just love the characers
Synopsis: Well, they finally did it, convinced Dib that there were no such things as aliens, using unconventional means. Now Dib doesn't know what's real, and what isn't anymore. Is he Zim? He must complete his mission!
A/N: this is my first ZADR and Yaoi, please R/R :D
Rated M for intense violence/slash and of course yaoi
He was encased in the darkness, but he knew he wasn't alone, he was never alone and that always sent a small shiver down his small. It was the sound of the metal on metal that got him scrambling backwards until his back hit into the wall. He blinked and looked around, he was back in his old hospital room, the place he hated the most, THAT place where, where…he couldn't finish the thought.
"What happened Dib?" the words were low, menacing and Dib looked around with frightened eyes.
"It-it wasn't my fault, one of the scientists…, they-they.." the fisted hand hit Dib hard sending him flying, sprawling to the ground, his glasses skittered off out of sight.
"LIES, YOU FAILED ME!" Dib felt the claws dig into his back and rake downwards bringing a cry of pain out of him.
"No, please it wasn't my fault" he whimpered.
There was a pause and then Zims face lowered down towards Dibs, his deep crimson eyes narrowing at him. "You've done something stupid again haven't you." Zim grabbed him and yanked him off his feet, "HAVEN'T YOU!" The round snake-like arms snaked around Dib keeping him aloof in the air.
"There was nothing I could do.." Dib answered with the smallest voice, fearing what the other was going to do.
"I NEVER gave you PERMISSION to KILL YOURSELF!" The voice roared. A small snake arm came from Zims pak and towards Dib, and before Dib could do anything else it forced its way into his mouth making him gag as the intruding arm was none to gentle going down, down to his stomach. Dib kicked and sputtered and gagged so when Zim brought the arm back out, he was dropped unceremoniously to the floor where he promptly emptied the contents of his stomach.
An Irken claw grabbed a hold of his hair and pulled his head back. The other went to his face where claws slowly and meticulously drew down the side of his face making Dib scream.
"Now what went wrong?"
"I-I miss calculated." Tears streamed down his face, he couldn't help it
"As usual you failed just like everything else you have ever tried to do." Suddenly the hands released Dib and he scrambled backwards, but never too far away.
"I placed all the bombs in the locations, and I-I put that stuff in the water like you told me too."
"Maybe I should just leave you here, alone, with no one to talk to, no one who'll believe you" the voice seemed to get further away "Maybe you could try your Father again." The voice snickered.
"No" Dib whispered, then louder "NO, don't leave me!" But there was no answer."I'll do better next time I promise" Dib curled up and wrapped his arms around his legs and rocked slightly "I promise."
"And why should I believe you? When you are nothing, my little piggy-smelling Earthlet? You are not Huumun, you are not Irken…" Zim turned his back on the pathetic mass of meat at his feet. "What does that make you, hmmmm Dib-thing?"
Dib whimpered at the pain those words caused. Nothing, he was nothing, so he said the only thing he could say, the only thing that made sense to his muddled mind. "I am yours my Tallest."
"Yes, yes that does make you mine doesn't it?" The Irk turned and looked down with a pleased little smile on his face. He sat down on the floor and motioned "Come here my Dib-thing, come to Zim, no one else wants you, no one else will take care of you but me."
Dib slowly got on his hands and feet and made his way towards Zim his Tallest and curled up in his lap. Zim played with his hair much like a cherished cat, pulling on the small lock of hair that always stood out. Dib gave small whimpering sounds as he snuggled closer. The Irk drew down a point of one of his claws along Dibs forehead and down his nose, over his lips until it reached his chin. He placed it under the tender area and slowly raised Dibs head so he would look at him. "Yes, you are a good boy aren't you?" Dib nodded slightly, holding his breath, waiting, wanting.
The pointed claw sharply poked at the center of Dibs forehead. "Then its time to think of a new plan with that big head of yours. You will do that for me yes?" Zim lowered his mouth down and lightly placed a small kiss on Dibs lips. Zim pulled back but Dib tried to keep the contact. Zim chuckled as he pushed Dib back. "I am still waiting…"
"I will think of something my Tallest, we will destroy them." Dib was shaking slightly, wanting, saying anything to get that touch back.
"Yes, I know you will." Zim leaned back down to Dib and gave him his reward, and Dib kissed him back as if it was the only thing keeping him alive. The only thing that mattered. He felt the claws reach under his shirt and lightly run across his belly making him shudder. Dib held on for life, his fist clinched in the others uniform. Even when Zims tongue slid out and ran over the claw marks on his face, to lap up the blood there, it made Dib cry out, but he would never let go and just shuddered from the pain, pleasure and just the feel of belonging somewhere, anywhere as long as it was with Zim.
Zim explored about the house, intrigued at how similar it was to his base, just on a smaller scale. Tak's old ship had been disassembled and the parts used to create this new base. Wires, and parts crisscrossed through the place. Zim made his way towards the basement of the house, which looked to have once housed Membranes laboratory at some time. Now various experiments and machinery sat in various stages of development. But the one thing that had caught his attention was the screen that sat flushed to the wall, the lights blinking showing that it was powered up, waiting for transition.
He approached it slowly, no he wasn't nervous, he was the all mighty ZIM the most feared invader in all the Universe. He was NOT afraid. He sat down in front of the console, the chair now seemed a little too small, must have been the one from Tak's ship. He reached out a hand and initiated contact. He wasn't even aware that he was holding his breath when it connected.
"What is it Zim?" The almighty Tallest Red stood there before him on the screen. "I thought we said no more contact until we arrived." He sounded like he wasn't too surprised though.
"My-my Tallest." Zim said reverently. It was true, everything that Earthboy said was true.
"Welllll? What is it?" Red's eyes narrowed as he closed in on the screen.
"Ooo, tell him to send some more of those…payy-triess" Purple purred.
"You didn't screw anything up did you? Your little earth-slave said everything was going as planned and that you had the planet under control."
"Of course not, Everything IS going as planned, for your arrival My Tallest..which will be when exactly?" Zim asked, trying not to sound like he had no idea what they were saying.
"Uggg, two months of your EARTH time. But remember ZIM, this is your last chance, when we get there and we don't get what's promised..." Red made an obscene jester and then cut the connection.
"I can't believe you actually agreed to go, after all this time and we thought he was finally dead." Purple complained.
Red couldn't seem to stop glaring at the blank screen. "Did he seem different to you?"
"Please, like I try to look at that ugly little thing." Purple went over to Red and wrapped an arm around his middle, resting his head on his shoulder. He shuddered at the thought of Zim. "I had hoped that we had heard the last of him."
Red reached up unconsciously and ran a hand over one of Purples antennae, making the other sigh contentedly.
"No, this will be the last time. Nothing like the incident with Tallest Miyuki and Tallest Spork will never happen again." But Red hadn't liked what he saw. There was something different about Zim. And he didn't like it. "You know why I agreed. After we thought we were rid of him, he shows up, AGAIN." Red ranted while stroking purples antennae, feeling the other relax and purr against his back. "Impending DOOM three is almost here and we don't want the slightest chance this time."
Purple reached up and to grab Reds antenna, twirling it around his fingers. "And he still doesn't even suspect why we sent him there in the first place." Purple giggled, he couldn't help it, Red always made him fell soooo good.
Red tilted his head back, to give the other more essay access. Yes, that was true. Zim still had no idea the real reason they sent him to that disgusting part of the universe. This would definitely work to their advantage.
