Zim POV

I quickly ran out of the base, I needed to get this over with.

The sun had set a long ago; it was way too dark outside, more dark than normal.

I stopped on the sidewalk in front of the house, looking into all of the windows; I'm going to have to guess which one Dib is in.

Slowly, I crept in through the window that I had gone through the other time I was here.

I walked across the room and pressed my head against the door, listening to see if I could hear anything.

I jumped back when I heard an agonizing boyish scream coming from downstairs.

Trying to keep my stealth, I opened the door and looked both ways in the hallway to see if anyone was coming, when another un-earthly scream reached my antennas.

My PAK legs carried me to where the sound was coming from faster than my legs ever could, crawling on the walls when I made sharp turns.

I stopped in front of a door and read the words that were written on it. 'Membranes' lab. Do not Pass. Entering could result in fatality.'

I ignored it and gently pushed the door open.

The room was all dark, only one light was on, and it shined on a metal table.

What I saw was something I was shocked to see was Dib strapped to a metal table while his parental unit toward over a knife and needle in hand, his white sleeves drenched with blood, his back to me.

"Quit your whining son. This is for the good of man-kind, for SCIENCE!" He said harshly.

Dib let out another scream of agonizing pain that made me jump when his parental unit dashed something on his stomachs.

This reminded me so much to what Irkens would do to other life forms that were discovered, so that they would know their weaknesses… this… what I'm witnessing, this is just cruelty.

I walked up behind them, was all of this what made Gaz turn so cold? If this is what this parental unit called love… I hope no one ever experiences it.

Dib let out another scream, tears running down the sides of his head, he couldn't move to defend himself, all his limbs were tied down, as if he were some sort of animal to be dissected… and in a way, right now he is.

My PAK legs held me up so that I was towering over this cruel parental unit, and then my eyes met with Dibs.

His eyes held the meaning of torture, helplessness and despair, his eyes pled for me to do something, to stop this torture… no one deserves to be in his position… no one.

"Alright, Dib… This is going to hurt a lot." The parental unit said holding the knife up. Just as he was about to let it drop in Dibs open stomach, my hand went to grab his wrist.

Something inside me snapped. "You have done enough damage." I growled.

The parental unit whipped around to see who would dare step into his lab at such a time, but he froze when he saw something he didn't expect… an alien.

"You were the one that took Gaz didn't you? I saw you leave with her. I needed her!" The parental unit exclaimed.

"For what?" I growled at him, I had a feeling that I already knew the answer.

"What else? Experiments for the better of man! The better of SCIENCE!" He said.

He broke the last straw. I pushed him away from the table Dib was laying on and onto the floor. I grabbed him by the front of his shirt and pulled him up so that we would see eye to eye. My PAK legs lifted us off the ground, so high; his feet weren't touching the floor anymore.

"You are a sick and twisted parental unit." I snarled at him.

The parental Unit stabbed me on the shoulder with the knife that he had in his hands.

It hurt, yes, but I didn't let him see it, instead, I let go of him and he feel to the ground. One of my hands grabbed and yanked the knife out, my green blood mixing with Dibs red blood, turning it into an ugly brown.

I looked the knife and then at the parental unit, my mind was made up. "Maybe, before I kill you, you should feel the same pain that Dib and Gaz felt." I said. "This will defiantly help my studies on how the earthling body works." I said and let out a laugh.

My PAK legs grabbed the parental unit and lifted him into the air.

The parental unit struggled against me, but I just made the grip tighter. I looked around the room and saw a rusty old table with metal straps for each limb. "Perfect."

I walked to it and slapped the parental unit down on it, he landed on it and I thought I heard something crack. After strapping him in, I grabbed the tools that he was using and prepared them, letting the reflect the tiny bit of light that was in here.

The parental Unit started to shiver in fear.

"No… Don't do it. I have so much left to offer to this world." He whined.

"This is for all the damage you have caused to the poor Gaz and Dib humans over the years." I said, holding up a knife, the light glinting off of it to add more suspense.

"Zim." I heard a weak voice say.

I turned to see Dib looking at me. He tried to shake his head no, but the restraints were really tight against his head.

"What is it that you want Dib-human? Can't you see that I'm in the middle of taking revenge." I growled at him.

"Don't stoop to his level Zim." He said, and then passed out, his eyes rolling into his head. If he is dead, I'm going to hear about it from the Gaz human later.

I looked back at the parental unit. "Even after all of this, the human defends you. This will be the last time you see him." I growled at him.

I looked at Dib, he lost a lot of blood, his stomach was still side open I needed to fix that before I could move him.

Grabbing one of the tools that the parental unit had, I tied a piece of string that was on the metal table onto it, stitching the skin on Dibs stomach together. It was only temporary so that I could get Dib out of here, any mistakes I do here, I will fix in the lab.

When I finished, I took off my glove and used my clawed finger nails to cut off the string.

One by one I ripped off all of the restraints and gathered Dib in my arms.

Just as I was about to leave the parental unit spoke up. "Hey! What about me? You can't just leave me here!" it shouted at me.

I looked back at him and gave him an evil smile. "Well, maybe I could torture you a bit more."

My PAK legs grabbed Dib and I walked to the parental unit. "Good bye!" I said as crazily as I could manage.

I pressed on a pressure point and the ex-parental unit passed out. I took out all the restraints and pushed him off the table so that he landed on the floor.

"Let's hope you don't have any rats here, for your sake." I said and left this haunting home, hopefully, never to return again.
