Alright! Doing ch.5 now with great pleasure! Heehee. No, no perverted business... yet. ;)
Well, more recommendations to your peeps and keep the feedback coming! XD Enjoy!
Zim and Zora kept rushing down the hall and headed down the stairs.
"What could Gaz-human be up to at this time of night? Surely there's not an intruder!"
Zora jumped down last last couple steps and ran into the kitchen, but found no one.
"Gaz? Gaz, where are you?" She called out in the empty room, but had no response, which made her worry even more. She heard a loud whistle on the other side of the kitchen.
Zim waved over at her, telling her that Gaz may possibly be in the living room.
Zora ran into the living room with Zim, the two of them frantically looking side to side, scanning the room for any sign of life.
Suddenly, a loud crash came from near the sofa. Gaz rolled out 'Hollywood' style from behind the couch, only to shout a quick warning to them.
"ZIM! ZORA! MOVEOUT OF THE WAY!"
Both inhuman beings dived out from where they stood, as a lightening fast object shot through the air.
Zora cried out and tried to aim her magic at the attacker, but missed constantly. It was too fast for her to obtain.
It wasn't till a couple more times of it shooting by that Zim recognized what the zooming object was.
That's when the dogs of war were let loose.
"GIR! WHAT THE HELL DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING? STOP THIS RIDICULOUS RICOCHET PATTERN AT ONCE!"
The small droid came to a disastrous halt, crashing into the coffee table and destroying the ornaments on it. The room remained silent for a very long moment in which seemed like forever.
'I wonder how long that thing is going to lay there..', thought Zora as she drew closer to the wrecked coffee table.
"Zim, what is your pet doing here? Have you any idea how much trouble I will be in when my father gets home? Let's just pray that Dib is in tolerable condition, or I swear I will send you both into a burning and dreadful pit of pure horror and misery!"
Zora looked over at Gaz, slightly scared with sweat drops falling down the side of her face. 'I hope she doesn't mean me...'
Zim glanced over at Gaz, appearing more ticked off than he was before.
"No, I do not know what he is doing here either. I told him first thing this morning to stay home and watch the damn house. Stupid Gir."
Without warning, the small droid jumped up, immediately facing Zim and saluting him. "Good evening , Master." He finally turned goofy, eyes returning from blood red to baby blue. "How ya doin'?"
Zim was far pissed now. He gritted his teeth, mustering his best death glare towards the robot.
"Gir... what.. are... you... doing here? Weren't you... supposed.. to guard... the house?"
Goodness, he wanted to strangle the thing, here and now. It took all his being to keep himself composed and from harming the small piece of talking metal.
"Oh, well, I got bored." Gir simply stated, followed by a crazed giggle.
Zim was ballistic now. "YOU WERE WHAT? BORED? HAVE YOU ANY IDEA THE DAMAGE YOU HAVE CAUSED? LOOK AROUND YOU GIR!"
Gir scanned the room, then drooped his head down, frowning. "Oops. I'm sorry, master. But I was really bored! I was watching the TV, but there was nothing good on, so I ran around the house, but then I got bored with that too. So, I went down to the lab, but it bored me also, so finally, I went to look for you! I didn't know you wouldn't be coming home tonight." He hung his head once more in shame.
Zim stayed silent, fuming away his anger. He knew Gir was right about one thing; he forgot to notify him of the sleepover. Well, his loyalty never falters from there, so he knew he just HAD to forgive him.
Zora looked down at the small thing, and squealed. "Aww! He's soo cute! Zim, this is your pet? I didn't know you had a pet robot. That's so amazing!" She bent down and hugged the droid, which made him very happy.
"Yay! Master, is this your new friend? She's nice. I like her already!" Gir cuddled close to the red head, which made Zim growl ever so slightly.
Gaz, as well, was not happy. Her house was now a complete mess, and her father would be coming back home from the office soon. "Well," she stated, "What are we going to do about this mess? There is no possible way that I'll be able to clean all this up before dad gets home. Dib is a big enough problem as it is."
Zora placed Gir down on the floor and winked. "Just leave everything to me, Gaz. I'll have this fixed up in no time at all." With that said, Zora snapped her fingers and with a point of her finger, repaired the coffee table like it was brand new. In addition, she repaired all the damaged china, sofa, and other furniture.
It was only a matter of a minute, and the house looked like it was never touched.
Zim, Gaz, and Gir stared in awe, not able to believe that so much damage can be so simply repaired in the blink of an eye.
"Wow. Thanks Zora. That's two slices of pizza for you and another shot of lemon ice tea." Gaz smirked at her friend gratefully, heading back into the kitchen to get the food ready. "Oh, and Zim..."
Zim winced as Gaz spoke. "Yes, Gaz-human..?"
"You may sleepover in the house. Your pet can stay too, but both you, your pet, and Dib must stay in Dib's room at all times unless you need to pee or something. But only with MY permission." Gaz slammed the fridge door shut, taking the two drinks and trays of pizza with her back upstairs.
"Coming, Zora?" She called at the top of the stairs. Zora responded back, "Yeah, be there in a sec."
She bent down to Gir, bidding him a favor. "Gir, could you go help Gaz get Dib into his room?"
Gir saluted the girl, something that he never did for anyone else except obviously his master. "Yes, ma'am!" With that, the cute midget robot scampered off and up the stairs.
Zim eyed her suspiciously."Strange."
Zora snapped her attention to him, raising a brow. "What? What's strange?"
Zim took a step towards her. "Gir never salutes anyone but me. You are the first that he has ever saluted to." He averted his gaze, boring into hers. "You must really be something if you were able to make him obey you in the same manner as me."
Zora took a step back, getting a little nervous. "Me? Make him obey me? Come on, Zim. It was a simple favor. Not like I'm forcing the cutie."
He froze at the term. Cutie. He didn't like her using that term on his robot, nor on anyone else... except for him.
"Well, I think it's time to go to bed now. Professor Membrane will not be happy if he finds us skulking around this late at night." Before she could leave, she felt something grab her wrist. It was Zim, and he was keeping a very firm grip on it.
"Now who said anything about going to bed so soon?" He smirked as he drew himself closer to her.
Zora tried to use her other hand to perform another incantation, but failed. Zim grabbed her other hand as well.
"Now let's not use magic this time. I want absolutely no interruptions this time..."
