I am ZIM!
I don't have any jetpack or anything in my Pak, so I had to walk back. It snowed on me. It just started getting harder and harder and harder. It was so bad, I lost sight of the road and couldn't see more than 20 feet in front of me.
It was cold.
I almost wanted to die.
NO!
NOT WHEN DELILAH IS OUT THERE!
I REFUSE TO DIE!
Someone save me...
I've been walking for about an hour in this horrid weather.
I'm hungry.
I'm thirsty.
I'm so cold.
Why did I come in only my uniform and a jacket?
I didn't expect or prepare for this.
But I'm doing this for my Delilah!
Delilah...
I wonder what they've done to her. Experiments? Abuse? Anything inhumane?
I want her back so badly... Nobody can stop me.
I walked a little faster in the thick snow. My boots kept sinking into the stuff every time I took a single step.
I wanted to cry, but I thought the tears would completely freeze on my face.
NO, that is NOT a joke!
I pictured me and Delilah, we were so happy together, before Tak came. Tak ruined everything.
I shoved her out of my mind and thought more about Delilah. She's so beautiful, so tough, so smart and witty and...
I can't keep thinking like this! I'm getting distracted!
But Delilah...
No buts! Keep walking!
I love...
Irkens cannot feel love!
I screamed at myself in my head. I'm not giving up. Never.
I sighed in the cold breeze. I saw my breathe escape and fade away.
Dare is everything to me...
I'M NOT STOPPING!
EVER!
I took off sprinting through the thick snow. My shoes didn't sink into the snow when I didn't give them the chance.
I didn't notice before, but I was actually smiling happily when I ran. I noticed that there was a drop right in front of me. I stopped before I could fall.
The sun shined in my face. It was suddenly warm with the jacket. I took it off and looked at the view the cliff provided.
The city was just under me.
I could see my house! Haha!
I grinned and launched myself off the cliff with my Pak legs.
NO, I'm NOT committing suicide; I found a faster way to reach my fortress.
I swear, I was a little happy because of this. I flipped through the air a little bit.
I saw a shelf of rock under me. I caught it with my Pak legs and slowly led myself down the rest of the mountain.
I easily saw my house and ran to it. I let myself in the back door and ran into the living room. I switched the communicator in the wall on.
I'm getting Dare back, whether it kills me.
