WARNING: ZDAR/YAOI Don't read if you don't like this stuff, and if you don't know what it is don't read :P

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

Zim marched proudly towards the bridge of the Tallest, Skoodge closely behind him who dragged Lard Nar who was bound by electric chains. He probably wasn't faking the fear that was shaking through him. Zim grinned with that. Served him right for going up against the Irken Empire.

They walked into the presence of the Tallest. Red and Purple turned and watched them enter.

"My Tallest's" Zim addressed them. Even though they no longer seemed very tall to Zim anymore.

"Congratulations on a job well done and blah blah blah." Red told him as his eyes went to Lard Nar behind him.

Zim clenched his mouth shut and turned to take Lard Nar from Skoodge, catching the slight movement from him as he signaled Dib that they were in place.

"A gift to show my loyalty to the Empire, and as an Invader for my Tallest." Skoodge seemed to wince at Zims sarcasm, but Red and Purple weren't even paying them any attention.

"Ah Lard Nar." Red purred as he went over to him. Lard Nar cringed back as Red loomed over him. Red released his spider limbs making Lard Nars eyes widen. One end grabbed the chain and yanked him face down on the floor in front of him.

"Humph, The Resisty, what a stupid name." Purple mocked him.

One of Reds spider legs pierced into Lard Nars legs and he screamed. Zim took this time to look around the bridge, noting who was where and who they would need to take out first. The Massive gave a small shudder and an alarm sounded.

"What was that?" Purple asked.

Red pulled away from Lard Nar and went over to the console.

"Report." Red yelled at the communications officer.

"We-were under attack Sir!"

"WHAT? By who?"

"Yea, who would dare attack the Massive! We have the Resisty under our control" Purple exclaimed.

"Shields are down sir!"

Another close explosion sent many of them stumbling catching onto what they could for balance.

"Agggg those idiots." Red screamed furiously. "Return fire, wipe them out!"

Another alarm began screaming through the bridge.

"What is it now?" Purple whined.

Red glided over to the console as he started to pull up data.

"W-weapons are offline." The officer stammered.

Red screamed in rage, grabbed the solider and threw him across the room.

Zim waited, anticipation raged through him. Oh the destruction always brought a smile to his face. When the explosion hit it sent them all flying to the floor, the room was quickly filling up with smoke, lights flickering, and panels sparking. He and Skoodge quickly activated their cloaking devices.

Zim quickly took out those with the highest threat, easy since they never saw it coming, didn't even suspect it. Something he would change when he took his place as Tallest. Purple was on the ground his Pak gone, Skoodge had deactivated his cloaking device, restraining the former Tallest. Skoodge only looked at him once then quickly looked around the room as the tall Irk screamed furiously beneath him. Zim quickly scanned the room making sure there would be no other threats, looking for Red.

"WHAT IS THIS?" Purple screamed, "My Pak! I ordered you to return it to me!" Purple demanded.

"You're through Purple." Skoodge told him. "We have a new Tallest now."

Purple sputtered in rage but with each passing minute it seemed to get less and less frantic as his time ran out. Zim was starting to panic. Where was Red?

"Lies! Your miserable little Irk. You are going to pay dearly for this!"

Zim spun around and went over to him and deactivated his cloaking device, making sure Purple saw him very clearly.

"Oh, I think it's you that will pay Purple."

"Zim!" Purple spat. "We should have killed you long ago you defective little miscreant."

Zim reached down and wrapped a hand around his throat. He grinned sadistically as he pulled Purples face close to his.

"Now, that's not the right way to address your new Tallest is it?"

Purples eyes widened for a moment than he began to laugh.

"You won't get away with this Zim, the Control Brains will see to that."

Zim was about to retort something when Purple cried out in pain. Skoodge had pinned him down to the floor, his spider limbs dug into Purples body, his green blood beginning to pool underneath him.

"Zim where's Red?"

"He-he went out that way." Lard Nar pointed as he slowly pushed himself off the floor, blood running down his leg where Red had pierced him. Zim took a few steps towards the door.

"Zim! We need to secure the bridge first!" Skoodge yelled at him.

"Get those fucking troops up here!" Zim screamed to Lortz through the communicator.

When Dib had received the signal the team went straight to work. They had to deactivate their cloaking devices so they wouldn't accidently shoot one of their own. It was quick work, with minimal casualties on their side. Dib went to the control panel and started to hock up his computer, hacking into the system.

It didn't take him long to bring the shields down, that was the easy part. The security was a little tighter and tougher on the weapons. Even harder still was coaxing the system to accept his new program. He wasn't trying to bring down the weapons, he just wanted to transfer the controls over to the Contender where they could be used to their advantage. Used against their own ships outside.

The ship started to shake with the blasts as the fight began outside of them. Thorupe, a Meekrob, stuck to his back as he worked. The shape shifter was handy in this situation and kept Dib out of trouble as he worked.

None of them were prepared for the huge explosion that blasted into the room. Dib's ears were ringing as he slowly picked himself off the floor. Thorupe didn't move as he lay there on the ground. No, no, no, no, no, this couldn't be happening. The entire area had been almost obliterated. The emergency force field activated to prevent the hull breach from getting worse.

"Northian dookie!" Meii yelled into his communicator, "Tell them to stay away from these coordinates unless they want to blow us all up!"

Dib looked down at his arm, it was broken, but everything else seemed to be fine. He gritted his teeth, they had to find a new way into the computer, he still hadn't finished the transfer. He kicked through the rubble and found his computer, or what was left of it. The hard drive seemed to still be in one piece though. He began pulling out wires from to debris. Attaching what he could and working only as fast as his one arm would let him go, using the screen on the console for his purpose. It was difficult since the screen was cracked and sputtered in and out.

"Uh, human Dib, you better hurry." Meii told him, "I think they found us out."

Dib looked up to see a wave of Irken soldiers making their way in through the door. Dib ignored the pain in his arm as he used it. The last few members of their team set up a small blockade to try and keep them out. Laser fire insured and the situation became intense fast. The room was in total chaos, the fighting growing more gruesome as each of their team members were injured or killed, and had to keep falling back. There was only a few of them left.

He was almost done, as his program slowly downloaded. And it felt extremely slow within this situation.

"YOU!"

Dib turned and ducked just in time as Tallest Red came at him, spider limbs just missing him. Where the hell did he come from?

"Zim's human pet, I should have KNOWN He was up to this."

Meii fired at him forcing Red to retreat back, returning fire.

"That miserable failure of an Irken! I am going to make him PAY long and slowly for this." Red hollered.

"He's a better Irken and Invader than you'll ever be." Dib hissed at him returning fire with Meii. He glanced down at the computer, it was so close. It was only a split second when his eyes left Red, and if it wasn't for Meii the blast would have hit him straight on. The alien slumped back into him and Dib caught him as they both fell to the ground. Dib grabbed his weapon and fired it at Red giving him no chance to advance.

Red's eyes narrowed at him. Dib glanced quickly at the console; it was ready for the final code. He could feel his heart beating, his breathing was hard. He was only going to have one chance at this. He fired, spun and began to type the last of the control codes hitting the button. The information started to download to the Contender, and the Massive's power fluctuated with the control transfer.

It took Dib a second to realize what had happed as he looked down, seeing the spider legs that protruded through his gut. Red yanked them back out and Dibs body convulsed with the act. Strange that it didn't seem to hurt as his hands grasped the wound, the blood pouring through his fingers. He fell to his knees his strength leaving him and then toppled forward.

He wasn't aware of the new soldiers coming into the room, the cry of rage as Red's Pak was torn off him, his head landing not far from Dib soon after. He only felt the cold seeping in, his lungs filling up with fluid, quickly cutting off his air supply, the warmth that seemed to spill from his mouth.

Then Zim's anguished face was there yelling something at him, he didn't know what, he couldn't hear him. He tried to smile at him, tried to reach his hand up to touch him, but everything was fading quickly to blackness, and then it was all gone.

It had taken five of them to pry Zim away from Dib's body, and it hadn't been gentle. Skoodge rubbed his arm from claw marks he himself had received from Zim. He had brought the medical team in to get to Dib. They had to work fast, but none of them knew much about human anatomy. It was a good thing he had planned ahead and had assembled a small group of humans that could help. Dib's heart had stopped once already as they worked away, Zim frantic as they worked, yelling, screaming, and threatening them and Dib's lifeless body.

The head of his human team came rushing in, seemed to know what to do and Zim had reacted almost violently against him. They restrained Zim and made him listen to him, still angry but nodded his head in agreement, then began to work with them.

Skoodge hadn't been able to get Zim out of the Medical bay so he tended to what needed to be done immediately on the Massive. They had secured all the Irken troops, confining those that seemed more opposed and raising in ranks those who helped or seemed more willing with the change. But they still needed Zim to make his appearance, too show that he was now the Tallest and take his place.

He walked into the medical room, Zim just sitting and staring as the machines worked to keep Dib alive, but it wasn't working, nothing they seemed to do was working. His body wasn't healing fast enough, and the only thing that was slowing down the inevitable was the tub of goo he was submerged in.

"My Tallest you're needed in the council room." Skoodge said quietly.

Zim's antennae flicked and he blinked as he turned to look at him. There was an intense look, almost feral gleam in Zims eyes that made Skoodge take a step back from him. He grinned which turned to a chuckle then laughter which made Skoodge swallow nervously.

"Yes, yes of course Skoodge, but first I need to do something. Something the Dib might not like."

Shivers went down Skoodges back , "Please Zim" Zim pierced him with a mean look. "I-I mean my Tallest."

"Ten minutes Skoodge and send that horrid Earth-doctor in here. I need to speak with him immediately."

"R-right away my Tallest." Skoodge did as he was ordered and waited outside the door. He would give Zim his ten minutes and then he would have to drag him down to the council room, even if it did cost him his antennae.

But Zim surprised him by calmly walking out, before the ten minutes was up, his hands behind his back as he strode down the corridor. He paused and glanced back at Skoodge who just stood there staring back at him. What had happened to change Zims mood?

"Well? Are you coming Skoodge? I can't do this without my closest adviser with me."

Skoodge quickly walked over to him and Zim started walking back down the hallway.

"W-what about Dib?" he had to ask, even though it could make things worse.

Zim just grinned, "Remind me to tell you about an experience I had with the awful meat substance called baloney. Nasty Hyuumans and their filthy meats." He muttered.

This confused Skoodge to no end "Baloney?"

Zim just grinned.
