Note: So I don't ruin the moment this time, the note is before the story. Yay, this is the most popular story of mine so far! Some people *cough, cough, Dark Skitty Power, cough cough* think it's the best IZ fanfic they've read! (I really need to get that cough checked, don't I?) Also, another reply to the anonymous Tazer42, yeah, I was just kiddin' 'bout the 'evil plan' thing. Also, thanks, I try my best. Yes, the laws of physics have definitely been broken, Gaz has lost a battle, with the, ahem, 'AMAZING' Invader Zim. So weird. If it wasn't for the 1,000 years of training and maturing, I would have puked if he won.

Quick recap, for those who may not be the sharpest tool in the shed(like me,) or are just reading too many IZ fanfics to keep track of (also like me,) Gaz is unconscious and Zim has gone momentarily insane.(Always fun.) Also, when Gir wakes up, there is panic. (Yay for future telling-ish stuff!) Have fun!

Zim was flying through the air, when suddenly excruciating pain spread from his chest to the rest of his body. Something inside him snapped, and he felt something come over him, something wild and powerful.

He had experienced that feeling only once, a long time ago, when he was still in training. He struggled to not be overcome by it this time, because last time, he had managed to blow up a whole forest.

After just a moment of struggle, he knew he couldn't fight it anymore. He let it take over, and before he knew it, there was a green explosion, and Gaz was lying unconscious on the ground a few yards in front of him.

He had won.

He grinned triumphantly. After so long, so many years of training, of searching, of running, and seeing so much death, he had accomplished his greatest goal.

He had defeated Gaz Membrane, Over Lord of most of the universe, in battle.

Suddenly, he heard something. He frowned and cocked his head, listening to the silence.

It seemed like nothing was going to happen, when suddenly about a dozen hovercrafts were just over the magnetic field. Zim's eyes opened wide in surprise.

How could they have possibly found him?

"Give up! Come quietly and your death will be quick and painless!" a voice echoed around the clearing.

Panicking, Zim ran as fast as possible, grabbed the bubble containing Gir, and ran toward the unconscious Gaz. Without thinking, he closed the bubble and grabbed Gaz's ankle, tossing her over his shoulder. He ran into the large forest, dodging the trees and listening to the voices of soldiers coming from the purple hovercrafts above the highest branches.

As he ran, the forest became more dense, and the hovercrafts fell behind. He slowed, and realized that there had been other sounds among the voices of the soldiers. Gaz had awaken and was screaming like crazy, while Gir screeched, as he said, "like a howler monkey."

He tried to shush them, but they didn't hear him.

He threw them both to the ground in anger. Gaz scowled up at him, and Gir just started rolling around happily.

"What the hell-" Gaz started.

"WILL YOU JUST SHUT UP?" He yelled, irritated.

Gaz glared.

"No, I will not shut up! What the hell do you think you're doing, kidnapping me again?"

Zim hesitated. He really didn't know.

"I...guess I just panicked."

Gaz stood up.

"Whatever. I'm leaving."

She looked around, then turned to Zim.

"Which way is the way out?"

"You're not going to tell them where I am, are you?"

"I couldn't care less."

He looked around.

"Yeah, I don't know." he said after a moment.

"You don't KNOW?" Gaz stomped up to him and punched him in the face.

"Hey! It's a big forest!" he said defensively after he had recovered.

"I can NOT believe this!" she crossed her arms and turned around, shaking her head.

Zim sighed. "Look, let's just go one way, eventually we'll come out and you can go home."

She spun on her heel and stomped away in a random direction.

"Where are you going?"

"Where do ya think?"

Zim picked up Gir's bubble and followed.

This journey wasn't going to be pleasant, he was sure of it.

And the real adventure begins.
