Invader Johnny - There is that thing called dumb luck, right? ;)

Me2U2 - Now you'll know the cliffhanger part (If you can call it a cliffhanger)

Everclear - Not easy to say I love you, but she does the Gaz way, correct.

******Ring!*****

Dib woke up in his bedroom at home on Earth. Checking the time it was 6:45am and the day on the calender made him pause to scratch his head. April 12, 2013. Wait this was the year 2015. Alarm still blaring, he wondered if he placed the wrong calender in his room until he saw Gaz storm into his room, grab his alarm, and bash it till it was nothing but parts. She glared at him telling him his alarm is about as stupid as his voice.

"Gaz, I'm sorry, but what day and year is this?"

Gaz looked at him wondering if he had a brain in that head of his before she answered angrily, " April 12, 2013. Seriously, Dib." With that she stormed out of his room slamming his door.

"It was all a dream?" Dib had no idea if he was happy or ungrateful to it.

Meanwhile:

"Master! You'll be late for school again." Boomed the Computer's voice.

Zim's eyes opened as he struggled to get up from his awkward position against the lab table."School? I don't have school. I'm a Tallest after all."

The Computer laughed at his mistake. "You aren't. Also for a point of reference there is no invasion either. I say this simply from whatever you were muttering in your sleep."

Shooting up now, Zim kept firing questions off at the Computer making him hate him even more now.

"You are no Tallest. There was no Invasion. You didn't marry Gaz. Red is still alive. I know there is more but I'm bored saying these ones." The Computer informed him before adding ruefully, "Man, you talk a lot in your sleep."

"BE QUIET!" Zim shrieked out before quickly deflating.

"You'll still be late." The Computer said now pestering him simply because it was fun to do.

Frowning, Zim stood up to stretch his back before cracking it. Fetching his disguise, he placed them on before he headed upstairs. So all his dreams didn't come true. Well the part of the dream of what Red did was not what he wanted, it was something he feared. He always feared she would fall for some unworthy worm not someone as great as him.

At school it seemed too long for both Dib and Zim as they kept pondering their dreams. Dib always knew how he felt for Tak, but love? He kind of doubted that. For Zim when he caught sight of Gaz as she walked down the hallway oblivious of his dreams. He always had to watch her. He had to scare off anyone that dared to hit on her or at least look at her. She was his and his alone even though they never done a thing before. Well perhaps that one kiss near a look out point. That now seemed so long ago.

During lunch, Zim was at his usual table trying to be very casual as he glanced over at her while she ate with her brother. She was listening to him speak as she ate some crackers. She looked cute when she wanted to kill.

"I mean seriously, Gaz, I know this was a dream, but it was so real feeling to the point that I tasted and felt everything. Seeing Tak again felt odd to me in a way, but nice. The thing I hated was when you agreed to marry Zim for the sake of saving our planet and me." Dib was saying. He thought she wasn't listening, but she started choking on her food.

"Excuse me?" Gaz narrowed one eye at him. "As if I would do something like that in order to save this stupid world or even yourself."

Dib refused to believe she could be so callous as he kept going. "Well you did. You sacrificed yourself. Married him."

"Eww." Her face turned a different shade of color that would appear almost green. "As if."

"Bad thing is you got taken advantage of by one of the leaders when he drugged you. I got deceived by Tak, but the worse was about you."

Slowly turning her face to him, she knew it was stupid to get angry at a dream, but she wished he shut up. "I got raped? Excuse me, but what kind of sick dream is this, Dib? I'm married to Zim because I'm saving the planet, and then I have to be with him, but then something happens to me..." She trailed off.

"You seemed happy with him. Thankfully I never saw any part of a honeymoon with you and him."

Gaz hit him. "Shut up! I'm gonna gag and then brush my teeth. Me married to Zim. That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard from that stupid head of yours."

Zim studied how Gaz looked in how she wanted to tear Dib's head off before getting up clutching her stomach to leave the lunch room. As he watched her leave he didn't notice Dib's arrival until he was leaning over the table.

"Do I have to tell you to stop looking at my sister, space boy?" Dib warned.

"Eh?"

Dib wondered if this would be a good idea or not to say anything, but he did anyhow. He needed a reaction at times. "I was telling her about the most vivid dream I ever had where you became Tallest, led an invasion here to get my sister. You tricked her into marrying her by saying you'll spare this planet in which she did. She had to toss her lunch right now because the thought of marrying someone like you must truly even disgust someone as scary as my sister."

Grinding his claws into the table, Zim sneered at that insult. "She would make a powerful queen, but I would protect her rather then have harm happen to her." Zim caught Dib's questioning look making him go on. "Red would never get near her. As for an invasion, I would do that simply to have her. I wish it wasn't a dream." Stomping his foot on the ground he growled.

"I have a hint for you, alien scum. If you want to find a queen why not one of those girls at the other table that area always chasing after you. They are interested. Gaz isn't. Never ever think about my sister in that way ever again." Dib hissed.

Zim glanced briefly over to the girls noting they were also looking at Dib as well. Smiling, he crossed his arms, "Instead of waiting for Tak to come back, which I'm sure you are. Why don't you see that they are looking at you too." Stands up to eye his next move against the worm baby.

"I'm not waiting for her!" He argued.

"Oh well then..."

Before Dib could react, he was quickly shoved over to the girls in question to the point of him landing in two of their laps. Dib tried to get up, but they were instantly fawning over him to the point it felt like he had an octopus wrapping around him. Wide eyed, he saw that Zim was no where in sight anymore. Great! Let him be somewhere other than being around his sister.

Gaz was placing her travel brush away after brushing her teeth before studying herself in the mirror. There was no one ever in this bathroom since it was the furthest down from the cafeteria so therefore it offered her more privacy without her hearing any inane chatter from the girls in this school. Or her brother. Stupid dream sharing. She never shared her dreams with him. Though her dreams were filled with death and destruction to the point that would scare anyone. Smiling at the thought of her dreams, she hissed when she heard someone enter the bathroom. No one ever entered here during lunch time.

"Little Gaz."

Gaz groaned. "Did you turn into a girl overnight, Zim?" She asked sarcastically turning to face him with some amusement in her face before he wiped it out simply by locking the door behind him. What the hell is this fool thinking about now?

"I came here to speak to you, little Gaz."

Raising an eyebrow up, he announced it like he was a king. "Really? I thought you were here to use the bathroom. If you don't mind, I don't want to speak to you." Striding towards the door, he blocked it from her. "Zim, you know I can hurt you."

Chuckling at that, he wanted to close the gap between them both, but knew how well she could fight so he remained where he was. "I had a dream. A dream so amazing that I wished it was real!" He announced again with bravado until his bravado was knocked out again at another part of the dream. "Well except for the part of Red doing a horrible thing to you."

Gaz bared her teeth at him. "You too! Either you and Dib really share a brain in order to want to dream of such horrific shit about me, or you just want to die right now." She raged storming towards him with every intention of killing him, but decided not to soil her fists right now so she tried to get past him.

He halted her again. "I wouldn't want anything like that to happen to you at all, little Gaz. I simply want you." She growled at him touching her arm so he let it go. Unhappily. "You can't deny how perfect we are for one another."

Laughing easily in his face, she almost slapped herself. "I really regret kissing you if this is how you decided to act. It isn't gonna happen. It won't happen with anyone. Get it? Got it? If not then I will give you a swirly right now."

"Eh? What's a swirly? Is that ice cream?"

Stupid perplexed face of his, but she smirked knowing his reaction to her answer. "No. It is me dunking your head into that toilet bowl, flushing it, and letting the water run all around your head."

Hissing, his eyes went wider then even before at imagining the horror there making him make various disgusted sounds that had him moving away from the door. "You humans are sick."

Gaz smiled at the distraction letting herself rush out of there, but his hand whipped around her waist bringing her back towards the wall before pining her. Gaz did stomp on his feet, but he just gritted his teeth to go with the pain. Unsatisfied, she tried to knee him in the groin, but the shit blocked her by using a pak leg to stop her. "You will let me go now, Zim." She hissed out. "There are plenty of girls to harass. Stop bothering me simply because of who I'm related to."

"You think it is only that? No, it isn't. You are not like all the other humans here. You are tolerable. You are very intelligent."

"Not that intelligent to kiss you though." She grumbled hating herself.

Zim ignored that so he can keep going. "You are frightening, but incredible to watch when you are like that. I never felt this way with my own kind."

"Ugh. I am cursed. Did I get cursed with something other then that stupid pig curse?" Gaz was mostly speaking to herself. "I will have to kill Dib later if that is the case."

"Just kill him anyhow." He said interrupting her thoughts.

"No. Now let me go, Zim."

"You'll leave." He pointed out as he studied the depths of her eyes.

"Uh yeah. That is what I'm going for." Gaz mocked.

"On a condition. Perhaps two." He loved watching her sneer at him. "When I'm successful in my invasion, you will agree to be my queen."

Gaz broke down laughing at that so hard that she doubled over. "You are too stupid to be able to do that. You have been here for how long and nothing, Zim. Nothing." Feeling his grip loosen up she pushed him away from her. "I won't agree to that, but hey if you become a Tallest overnight than sure I will."

Gaz was being sarcastic, but Zim didn't catch it as he gave her a large grin. "Deal. Want to seal that with a kiss?"

"How about if I give you a swirly instead, Zim?" Stepping towards him again, she added, "Or how about I pull your pants down so I can get some money from those girls that follow you around like groupies? That one I like. I would love to have another game unit."

"Currently I believe those girls will be giving me money after I shoved Dib-stink into their laps. I think they will be tapped out for today." Giving her another once over with his eyes, he was very tempted in touching her. "You will become my queen when I become Tallest then."

"Yeah. Sure. Whatever." Gaz knew that would never happen. Knew what his own home world thought of him making her turn around to unlock the door and leave. Fucking weird guy.

Zim started cursing in his own language not wishing for her to hear him the next words out of his mouth. "Invading this planet is far simpler then me becoming a Tallest."

For Gaz, she almost made it outside when she spotted one of Zim's groupies come up happy as a clam. "Hi! Have you seen Zim? Just wanted to thank him for giving us a Dib sandwich."

Smirking, Gaz always knew how to snake anything out of anyone. "Zim is busy, but he told me that since Dib is my brother that I should be getting the thanks, and not him. He thought it was fair."

Thinking about it, the girl gave her about $30.00. "Well we can't expect you to take off your own brother's pants since that is crossing the line so it is good you did do this instead. We'll talk another time."

Gaz grinned as she pocketed the money. Now she had two cash cows at school.

On the way home, Dib and Gaz were aware of Zim following not so far behind them as they walked. Never a surprising thing since they didn't live so far apart, but still annoying to the siblings for each varying degree. Dib was grumbling about handsy those girls were to the point one actually snaked their hand down the back of his pants. Gaz simply laughed at that.

"It isn't funny though, Gaz. Would you like it if a guy gets handsy with you? I mean I know you would doom them, but.."

"Seriously, Dib they aren't bad looking. You should like the fact they like you in that way." Gaz snickered while thinking about the money in her pocket.

"You wouldn't understand anyhow." Dib grumbled.

For Zim he was simply studying them both. Mostly her. It was rare to see her without her game device in hand or a book, although he felt that this game of teasing her sibling back was far more amusing to her. He smiled at it as he studied her backside while she walked almost missing his communicator going off making him stop in his tracks. "What?!"

"And you wonder why I have the attitude I have towards you." The Computer droned to him.

Zim growled. "Why are you calling me? Did Gir do something stupid again?"

"When doesn't he do something stupid?" He leveled back. "The reason for my call is that your presence is urgently requested by the higher ups. Keeping them wait is something they don't wish you to do."

"The Tallests?"

"The Control Brains." The Computer corrected.

They never call on him unless it was to go to that trial. Eyes wide, Zim ran between Dib and Gaz in excitement making Gaz stare after him. "He's worse than a Chihuahua." She stated making Dib nod his head.

Immediately running inside his base, Zim was shocked to find two Irken soldiers waiting for him. "Invader Zim, you are to come with us right now on an urgent matter. Failure to come with us will result in as an insult to the Control Brains."

"I, Invader Zim, will come with you now!" Zim announced stepping forward. He knew it was never wise to keep them waiting.

A dream. It was a dream, but wait there is more. I am sorry that sounds annoying, but there is way more.
