From Human To Irken
Chapter 2
(Rated T, gets a little... Bloody and fighty.)
The next night, Sara wore black. She grabbed her deer rifle. She loaded 3 bullets in it. She took her sniper stick. Sara walked silently to Dib's house. She went around back and smashed her sniper stick on the window. It broke. She jumped in. She got to Dib's room. It was locked. She took a bobby pin from her hair and picked the lock. She walked in.
"Ok, ok, you got me..." Dib said. He stared right at her. "But first... a handshake. You won and I lost. You are superior to me..." Dib said. He stuck out his hand. Sara catiously put her hand out but she felt something tear at her skin and go into her hand. She instintively yanked her hand back and yelped in pain.
"WHAT DID YOU DO!" Sara screamed. Dib smirked.
"I hearrd your little plan to kill me. But... Now you will become an Irken." Dib said. Sara hissed.
"You didnt hear everything." Sara said. Dib looked confused. Sara opened her mouth to reveal large K9 teeth.
"I'm a vampire." she hissed. Dib stared. Sara threw her gun down. She jumped on Dib and they wrestled untill she, with her fledgeling strength, pinned Dib down. She bit his neck. Warm blood entered her mouth. She heard Dib screaming. She bit again. Then she stood up with Dib's blood dripping down her face. She grabbed him and pulled him up. Sara laughed. She kicked out the window and threw Dib out. Then she jumped out.
"Zim wanted to kill you himself." Sara hissed. She held the collar of his shirt and dragged him to Zim's house. She knocked on the door. Zim opened it. He took off his disguise.
"Told you I wouldn't fail. But I ran into a slight problem..." Sara said.
"And what was that?"
"He poked me with this tack thing and he claims I will be an Irken," Sara laughed, "Crazy right?" Zim looked at her. "It's crazy? Right Zim?"
"No... I designed that tack... You really are going to be an Irken." Zim said. Sara threw Dib inside the house and across the floor. He slid extra because of all the blood.
"You have a cure for it, right?" Sara said loudly.
"No. There is none." Zim said.
"Then find one! You have to!" Sara pleaded.
"You will become more of a service to me if you become an Irken but how did you get the Irken DNA Dib?" Zim hissed.
"I... hacked..." Dib gasped. Blood poured out of his mouth.
"I have to say Sara, you didnt lie. The only flaw is that you... are a human. But that will change."
"How is that a flaw?" Sara hissed.
"Its not important now. I think you will enjoy being an Irken." Zim said.
"Sara... he... likes...-"
"BE QUIET DIB! Time for you to meet your DOOM!" Zim yelled. Dib looked at Sara pleadingly. She stepped back from Dib.
"You may not want to look..." Zim said.
"It's okay." Sara said softly. Suddenly, Dib stood up.
"Finish him." Sara whispered. Zim got some sort of gun from his PAK and shot at Dib. But it was a lazer gun. Dib ran. Zim kept trying to shoot Dib, but kept missing. Dib tripped. Zim was about to pull the trigger when Dib grabbed something from his pocket and threw it at Sara. Zim pushed her out of the way. It was a knife. It hit the wall hard. Sara was starting to freak out. Zim pulled Sara close to him. "It's ok." he whispered to her. Dib got up and ran, Zim and Sara on his heels but Dib got in his house and was safe. Sara was breathing heavily out of exhaustion and fear.
"Thanks." Sara whispered to him. Zim shrugged.
"I can walk you to your home if you want," Zim said.
"I hate my parents," Sara said, "And with me... I'm going to be an Irken. Can I umm..."
"Can you what?"
"It's too much to ask."
"Tell me."
"Can I stay with you?"
"Yeah, sure, why not." Zim said. Sara laughed.
She was running. The people behind her throwing things at her. She could dodge well but she tripped. The people were bearing down on her. She screamed.
Sara woke up shaking and breathing heavily. Her dream had scared her badly. She pushed her long curly brown hair behind her ears and sat up. She threw her covers off and got up. She looked at the clock. It was 3 AM. She slowly and silently opened the door and stepped out. She heard giggling and weird music. She walked a little more and peeked around the corner. Gir was laughing and watching some weird TV show. She silently walked past Gir.
"Hey Sara! Wanna watch TV with meee? The Scary Monkey Show is next!" Gir said running out to her.
"No thanks Gir, go watch TV." Sara said softly. Gir nodded and ran back and jumped on the couch. Sara walked up to Zim's door. She knocked on it.
"Gir Im not watching TV with you!" a sleep deprived Zim yelled. Sara laughed and opened the door.
"You know, the Scary Monkey Show is on next." She said softly.
"Oh I know it." Zim hissed. Sara shut the door.
"What's up?" Zim asked, "I've just been getting woken up every 15 minutes about what show is on next and how good the one on now is."
"Well you're lucky. I had a horrible nightmare..." Sara said. She sat next to him.
"You ok?" Zim asked.
"Yeah but... it was just really scary..."
"You're safe." Zim said.
"When am I going to be... an Irken?"
"Soon. Wont take long. I'd say three days."
"I'm scared."
"Why?"
"What if Dib does something... What if he tries to kill me?"
"Nobody is going to hurt you. I'll protect you. I promise."
"Death scares me."
"It scares everybody. Everyone fears death. All the humans, all the Irkens, even The Tallest fear death. I do. You do. Dib does. Dib barely made it out alive." Zim said.
"But what if I barely make it out alive? What if I die?"
"I'm going to protect you no matter what."
"...I really like you." Sara said.
"I do too. But Irkens aren't supposed to have these emotions..."
"Have a male and female Irken really gotten together and became friends and learned everything about eachother?"
"No. I guess not."
"I guess I will embrace becoming an Irken."
"You should. And I'll take you to any planet you want. Irk is the best though."
"You dont have to-"
"Every Irken, besides you, has been on Irk."
"But I'm not exactly a true blooded Irken."
"Shut up," Zim said playfully, "An Irk is an Irk."
"Do I still keep my Vampiric powers? Do I get a PAK? New clothes?"
"I don't know, yes, and yes. You probably willl get to keep you Vampire powers. You'll be the first Irken with fangs and ... stuff." Zim said. Sara smiled. Gir opened the door.
"OH MY GOSH THIS SHOW IS HILARIOUS! THE SCARY MONKEY SHOW IS ON NEXT!" Gir yelled. Zim threw a pillow and Gir. He yelled and ran out and shut the door. Zim ran to the door and locked it. He got back on the bed with Sara.
"I trust you." Sara said, "I have never trusted anyone."
"I trust you too," Zim said, "It's late, let's sleep,"
"Yeah." Sara said. They got in bed and fell asleep.
