Zim's Point of View
The Irken mother ship was, of course, always going to be of interest to me. Even if they didn't give a damn about me I still continued to track their position. It wasn't that hard to hack into their systems with the technology I still had. Irkens were truly as stupid as all the other races made them out to be. Even if their beauty was above all other creatures, they didn't seem to have brains at all.
As I walked by Gaz I slipped the same object into her hand as I had put into Dib's bag. For some reason their course was set to earth when I last checked, but I couldn't tell their time out. I was ready for a fight, hiding weapons all over my body, and I had given Gaz and Dib a special Irken weapon to keep both of them safe. Even if they shouldn't have the technology, and might not know how to use it, they were important to me and I wanted them to survive an Irken raid. If it was the mother ship, that meant thousands of battleships weren't far behind. Although, I was curious as to why they were even coming here when they said this planet was useless to them.
Scratching at my antenna under my crappy wig as I came into homeroom, my gaze met Dib's across the way. He knew something was up by the way I was running around all morning. I wanted to protect the only human I cared anything about; and his sister, seeing as they had a strong bond as well. After finding out the course I began to work on amazing weapons in my lab and load them up into a ship I had built not short after making designs for the weapons. It was made from Irken and human technology. It was better than any major battleship I had seen in the Irken's armada.
It was tiring work, but I had gotten it done in the short time with the help of Gir. After loads of work on him. I had created a 'serious' chip for him that I put in only when we were together, and I needed him. If they attacked while we were in school I was going to have to get the humans to my base quickly. Everything was in place for me to move fast, but I wasn't sure how well everything was going to go with the humans. It was the armada, therefore, I already knew it was going to be super dangerous.
All during class I could feel Dib's gaze on me. The teacher droned on and on about some old fart that had been president putting everyone to sleep. When the bell for the lunch break rang, I rose from my chair and began to leave. It was time to take the two and leave for my base. I flinched as I felt a hand grab my arm and pull me away. Where I was dragged to was dark and small with a load of shelves. A light flickered on before Dib's face appeared very closely in front of mine. My face felt hot and I tried to step back, but the space we were in was too confined. I wasn't used to being this close to anybody unless in battle. However, I didn't mind being this close to Dib it made a new strange feeling arise inside of me. His breath hit my face as he glanced around before clearing his throat. "Zim, you've been acting weirder than normal. What is happening? You know you can talk to me, right? Even if it is an alien problem." He had stepped closer to me (if that was even possible) and a new look was on his face.
Dib's Point of View
"Zim, you've been acting weirder than normal. What is happening? You know you can talk to me, right? Even if it is an alien problem." As I came closer and tried to get my concern across to him his green cheeks became so red it was overly adorable. The way he acted toward me felt like he was being a tease. A need came over me as I reached out and tried to caress one of his cheeks. Something was obviously bothering him.
He hit away my hand and turned his back to me, "you'll be mad if I say now. You just need to come to my base after school with Gaz. It is important." I wanted to know what he was hiding, but before I could ask anything else everything was shaking. His eyes were wide and he grabbed my hand and ran. It was the first time I had seen him like this.
As he turned through the halls the other students were mocking us for being afraid of the shaking. This wasn't just an earthquake. Zim wouldn't react like this for just an earthquake. When we ran past Gaz her head flung up and she stared at us. I waved quickly for her to follow. For once she actually did as I told her, but not before grabbing a little orb out of her backpack.
We ran out of the school one of the teachers began to yell for us to get back inside before seeing it. A fleet of ships was hailing from the sky, and a smaller version of the Irken mother ship was right in the center of it all. I could hear the sound of Zim exhaling over all the screams, but I couldn't believe it was happening. His grip on me tightened making the tips of his claws sink into my skin and he yelled at me, "We need to keep moving! Now!" His hand darted into his coat and he pulled out a short stick. One of the ships landed in front of us and he didn't release his grip on my hand, but the stick turned into a laser-claw-like sword. It was definitely alien. When something, which looked like a smaller version of Zim in an iron suit, began to come off of the ship he swiped once at it and the blood oozed from the creatures open throat.
Zim didn't hesitate to begin moving. Running past the ship and around another, he didn't hesitate to kill the other invaders either. This was a side of him I had yet to see. His side made to kill, destroy, and invade. It amazed me how he didn't even look over his shoulder as he shot people in the head that were chasing us. I had never seen this. Zim, he is a warrior, and he was made to attack, wait, and kill when he needed to. All of the other Irkens weren't nearly as good as he was. Why hadn't he destroyed earth himself again? It had to be because of me.
We continued to be attacked by ships, and other Irkens. It seemed like they were all aiming for Zim. When I glanced back I saw a ship crashing down into the center of the Hi-Skool, and people were flying into the air. Others were being killed on the spot. This couldn't really be happening. Nothing seemed to be a match for Zim though. All he did is glance in the direction of the enemy and they fell to their knees.
After so much blood we finally reached his base. It was different from when he originally got here, but all the changes he made were good. It helped him to blind in, yet keep others away. Instead of four gnomes, he now only had two located by the door. While there was a garden around the entrance of the fence. The garden was there to entwine unwanted visitors in vines before throwing them down to his lab for experiments. It helped him to find subjects and not just kill whatever got on his lawn.
As we entered his home he grabbed a drive off the table closest to the door and slipped it into Gir's head. Gir's eyes turned red along with the rest of his natural aqua tone. The little robot followed us down to the lab as Zim yelled out, "it's time Gir!" Everything was happening too fast for Gaz or me to ask questions, therefore, we just followed along with it all.
While we were getting on Zim's ship there were crashing sounds coming from above. The alien had a worried expression as he started the engine. Before I knew it Irkens were chasing us as we blasted off out of earth's atmosphere. My eyes began to wonder around the ship and I took notice that there were two escape pods. One of which was Zim's small ship, and the other was Tak's old little ship. How long had Zim been working on putting together our escape? When I looked out the glass, I knew, I wasn't an idiot, earth had been invaded, it had been taken by the Irkens. Zim saved our lives, but left everyone else to die. All of our school mate, my father, everyone... I stared at the back of our drivers head as he glided us through the black realm after shaking off the following Irken ships. I had to know more. Zim had told me nothing about the oncoming invasion, but I knew he knew it was coming. He was too ready for it. That's what he was ashamed of in the closet. He was worried about me this morning. My eyes went back to his chair, his antennae were twitch as he leaned back in his seat.
Before I realized what I was doing I pulled him out of the chair and pressed auto-drive. He was surprised, but even more surprised when I slapped him to the floor. His head darted around and he leapt on me like a giant flee. It was like old times as we fought on his ship. His claws ran over my body, pinning my arms down, however, the rest of my body was still flailing underneath him. A grunt escaped him as I kicked my legs up in the air and hit him in between the legs. His tongue darted out and flicked across my cheek sending me into a paralyzed state. My eyes were wide as he hovered over me while panting. It sort of turned my on.
His face seemed to soften when he realized that we weren't in a struggle any longer. "Dib, I planned to get your sister safe before going back for the resistance, I'm sure that has already formed, and meeting up with them to take back earth. The only ones that would ever be taking over is us... I mean me!" He yelled out if correction, panting softly and our faces were closer than needed. We pulled apart when Gaz cleared her throat and Gir began to snicker. She grinned at me, "sorry to interrupt. Gir, we should leave Zim and the xenophilia alone for now." I had become aroused by our closeness just now, Gaz knew me too well. She knew exactly how he made me feel. His body temperature was abnormal from all the other times we had touched. He was more than alluring. Zim was almost a need for me. If only Gaz and Gir weren't here, then I would just confess to him right now. His hands slid back and he rose up away from me, irritated that they were laughing. I was curious if Zim knew what xenophilia met.
Before I could ask Zim stormed off to the bottom level of the ship. Gaz's gaze was on me and she nodded for me to go after him. She had always known I had a thing for him, but she had never seem to support me until now.
I went after him, going down to the lower floors where the bedrooms and engine room was. It looked like a smaller ship from the outside, but the inside was definitely much bigger than thought. Going to the door with Zim's name on it, I knocked and waited, but there was no response. I opened the door, but the lights were out and nobody was there. A heavy sigh left me as I wondered where he was now. My eyes wondered around the hall and I saw a room with my name on it. Zim had given me a room. I went to it slowly and it opened right away. The light was on and he was sitting on the bed with something in his grasp.
His red orbs shot up at me and we stared at each other before I came over and sat down with him. My hand slid over to his and I held it, rubbing my thumb over his claws. "I'm sorry for hitting you. I was upset." He nodded and glanced up at me, leaning over and pressing his face into my chest. A shiver was sent through him to me. The feeling was so of alluring, and I felt like I was sort of being seduced.
When he began to speak his voice was muffled, "what does xenophilia mean?" My face was burning red, but I didn't respond. His head turned, still pressing into my chest, even as he looked up at me now. "Dib-thing?" A chuckle left me and I shrugged, trying to shake off his question. His head cocked to the side as he pulled away. "You're a xenophilia. Should you not know what that means?" He gulped and began to bite into his thin bottom lip.
I was dying and had no idea what to say. He just got cuter and cuter as he became more curious as to why I wouldn't answer him. It was funny how cool he had looked not long along, and now he looked so different. I couldn't do, I couldn't lie to his face. "Xenophilia is a big word that means to like an alien." My hands clenched into fists and he nodded. Maybe it was a bad idea to say that.
