Invader Zim 》Not Just a Defect 《

Ch.7

Dib and Zim were in Dib's living room, coming up with the final parts to the plan.

"Alright, I think that's everything. All we have to do now is fix Tak's ship, and then we should be good to go" said Dib, smiling proudly.

"Indeed Dib. You know, we actually make a pretty good team when we're not fighting with each other" said Zim, smiling back.

He was wearing his disguise, just in case Professor Membrane came home early.

"You know Zim, I never really thought that we'd actually become friends, but here we are! Planning on stopping the Tallests from killing you and destroying Earth. Who knew!" Said Dib, chuckling.

"Yes, I guess it is kind of weird" said Zim, also chuckling.

"DIB!" screamed Gaz from the top of the stairs.

"YES GAZ?" Called Dib.

"YOU GOT A CALL FROM SOME GUY WHO SAID HE'S THE LEADER OF THAT CRAZY ORGANIZATION YOU GOT KICKED OUT OF!!!" Screamed Gaz.

"FOR THE LAST TIME GAZ, I WASN'T KICKED OUT OF THE SWOLLEN EYEBALL NETWORK. BUT OK. I'LL BE UP IN A MINUTE!" Yelled Dib back.

"COME UP HERE NOW!" screamed Gaz.

Dib rolled his eyes.

"You good to clean everything up while I go see what The Swollen Eyeballs want?" Asked Dib, getting up and walking over to the stairs.

"Sure thing Dib. I'll bring them all up to your room" said Zim, picking up some of the papers they had scattered around the sofa and coffee table.

Dib nodded and dashed up the stairs.

True, he hadn't spoken to the Swollen Eyeballs in a long time, but he wasn't kicked out.

Dib walked into his room and saw that his computer was on.

Gaz must have answered it when she heard someone video calling him.

Dib sat down on his chair and looked up at the screen in surprise.

"Agent Mothman, it's nice to see you're still in the agency. Find anything about that alien you're always talking about?" Asked the leader.

No one knew much about him.

What Dib did know about the leader was the fact that he was in a hover wheelchair and almost never video called anyone.

The only thing Dib could see was his black silhouette and glowing red eyes.

"Sir, I'm sorry for not contacting the other agents. I've been really busy these last few months" explained Dib, bowing his head.

"Agent Darkbootie and Agent Tunaghost were getting worried about you. Now tell me, did you find anything about that alien you're always talking about?" He asked, narrowing his eyes.

"Uhh...." said Dib, gulping.

He was sweating nervously and trying not to look at the screen.

"Mothman-" started the leader, but Dib interrupted.

"I-I have t-to...uh....PICK UP MY DRY CLEANING! YAH! I'LL BE RIGHT BACK JUST WAIT HERE!" screamed Dib, rushing off.

He had opened his closet door and slammed it shut behind him, hiding inside.

Dib was sweating nervously, trying to think.

"Come on Dib! I can't just betray Zim like that! He's my friend now!" Said Dib to himself.
