Something worth fighting for

Chapter 2

"Who dares bother Zim while he is thinking!" Zim yelled as the computer beeped. He clicked the button to answer the call.

"Who dares bother Zim..." He started to yell at the computer screen. He was so shocked that he couldn't finish his sentence.

"My..my tallest. It been years. Why have you not called?" Zim asked

"Well ummm... we were...ummm..." Red couldn't think of a good explanation.

"We were on vacation!" Purple suddenly yelled.

"For three years?" Zim asked.

"Yes, you see we..." Red start to say

"Why of course! Rulers as mighty as you would need a vacation that long." Zim said, forcing a smile. He wanted to believe them, but he didn't. He new better.

"Yeah, so Zim we need information about earth and the humans." Purple said

"Information on the humans, I have tons. First of all they are tall, yet they are stupid... " Zim said

"They're not the only ones who are stupid." Purple whispered to Red. Red tried his best not to laugh.

"...I hate that monkey." Zim said as he waved his arms in the air.

"Oh, thats nice Zim." Red told him. They had missed most of what he said. "So do you know any thing about this super weapon."

"Ummm... Oh! That thing the worm babys were going on about today. All I know is that they say its the most powerful weapon on earth, but it could never be more powerful then irken weapons." Zim said nervously. Why was he nervous? Why didn't he tell them everything?

"Well, me and Purple would like to come to earth and..." Red started to say

"See all the evil plans I have for the humans! Thats a great idea!" Zim yelled, trying to act like his normal self. He new for a fact that Red wasn't going to say that.

"Yes, thats exactly what I was going to say." Red told Zim

"Wait, I thought we were going to earth to..." Purple didn't get to finish his sentence. There was a explosion from above Zim's base.

"Shouldn't you go see what that was." Red said

"Why yes, of course. GIR! WHAT DID YOU DO!" Zim yelled as he started to walk off.

Red clicked the button to end the call. When he turned around Purple was staring at him with a what did you just do look.

"What?" Red asked

"What? What do you mean what!?" Purple said

"Wait, What?" Red asked looking confused.

"Why did you tell him we are coming to earth to see his evil plans or what ever!?" Purple screamed.

"Because, my dear stupid friend, I don't think he is telling us all he knows about this weapon. If we want more imformation then we go to him and get on his good side. He doesn't have the guts to lie to our faces. If he does lie to us and we know that for sure, can you guess what we are going to do?" Red told Purple.

"Kill him and then invade?" Purple asked

"Correct!" Red said with a smile.

The next day a school Zim was acting more weird than he normally did. He felt like the tallest were watching him. Why did the idea of the tallest coming to earth freak him out so much? He just felt like something was wrong. He felt like a tragedy was right around the corner. Something was going to happen, something big. He was just a small piece in the game. Something wasn't right.

No one noticed her. She sit in the very back of the classroom. She hardly ever talked and when she did, it was to tell someone to shut up. She was the smartest out of everone but would never raise her hand. She had skipped a few grades, but that didn't make people notice her. It made them ignore her more because she was younger. The color of her hair and her black clothes didn't make people notice her, it made the think she was odd. Gaz didn't really care what people thought about her. The only person she didn't hate at school was Zim. She had always thought he was cute. Everyone thought he was strange. She didn't see him like that. She saw him as something special. She wished he would talk to her. He never did, even when he sit in front of her. But today was different.

She watched him run in the class room just as Ms. Bitters was closing the door.

"Next time Zim try not to be late for my class, you annoying child. Now take your seat." Ms. Bitters hissed at him.

He walked to the only empty seat, the one in front of Gaz. He got out his notebook and began to write down the notes on the board. Gaz could tell something was bugging him. She couldn't read emotions well unless they were his. He seemed nervous. She tried not to stare at him. She really liked Zim. She wished he paid more attention to her. The last time he noticed her was five years ago when he used her as a umbrella. Gaz was so lost in thought she didn't notice time slipping by. Before she new it the bell rung. Zim jumped and spilled papers from his notebook all over the floor.

Ms. Bitters pointed to the door and said "Get out!"

By the time Gaz got her things put away there was only two people left in the room. Her and Zim. He was shoveling papers into his back pack. He glanced up at her.

"Hey." He said.

"Hi." She said staring at him. Most people wouldn't think about talking to her. He wasn't like most people.

"You don't talk much do you?" He asked

"No." she said

"At least your not like your brother and talk to much." He said giving her a small smile.

"You know, you don't talk much either." She told him as he started to leave.

"I only talk to people I like." He said as he walked out the door.

If he only talks to people he likes then why did he talk to me. Wait a second... Gaz thought. She began to smile. This caused her to get more werid looks on her way to her next class. She never smiled.

Just as Gaz was turning the last corner to get to her class someone grabed her arm and pulled her to the side.

"Why were you talking to him?" Dib asked

"Get away Dib." She said harshly

"NO! Not until you tell me why you were talking to him." Dib yelled

"Dib, If you don't let me go RIGHT NOW your going to be sorry." She warned. She didn't really feel like going to the princple's office right now but Dib had ruined her happiness. Why did he even care who she talked to?

"Tell me why you were talking to him!" Dib yelled again.

"I warned you." She said. She turned around and punched Dib in the face. He fell on the ground holding his nose.

She felt alot better now, until she saw the teachers rush over to help her brother and take her to the office. As they walked her down the hallway she turned to look at Dib. He mouthed the words how could you. She smiled and stuck her tongue out at him.
