ZaDR Oneshots (Invader Zim)

1st Arc of Unexpected Enemies PT2

"Okay... okay. So the original plan... was probably you and skoodge teaming up to take a human to be eaten by your leaders. Maybe you didn't originally plan it to be me, but Skoodge tazed me first... you paused. Or maybe you did... why else would you use tazers unless your leaders wanted to eat the human alive?" You asked him.

Zim didn't answer.
"But you did Zim, and now we're all here." You told him.

Zim looked up at you and nodded, "Okay."

You tried to wrack your brain for what happened next and wonder how much time you both have left, before you're both in danger.

You don't want to blindly run around in some foreign planet getting blasted at or whatever with no escape in mind. If you have to. You will, but right now... it's safe. So you have time to think.

"You both flew to Irken home world. But instead of preparing me to eat... I was brought to a dungeon? Maybe to hold me... maybe there's a party going on and all the Irken are to share and eat me at the party?" You asked him for confirmation of any kind and wondered if he could even give you that.

How much is he allowed to say or do? The leaders might have some kind of control over there invaders that your not aware of... you could just search his connection for answers if that's the case, but you felt like you should at least ask him if it's okay.

"Zim say ask." Zim tells you.

"Fine." You told him, "Is there any kind of control over the invaders or their actions?"

Zim was quiet for a while.
You wondered if he was just thinking or if he's struggling to answer like he couldn't. You weren't sure which or perhaps he's worried? Regardless of whatever is happening with the Irken Empire it's still his people.., this is... his family.

"I... I'm not going to hurt them Zim... I just want us out of danger... I want us to be safe." You explained honestly as the last thing you need is to go to war with a race.

You can barely survive Zim. Fighting the entire Irken Empire by yourself. You'd be dead in seconds. You didn't even want to think about fighting an entire galaxy.

"I... I know... it... hurts me too... I... I will... try... to help." Zim explained.

"I'm sorry..." you sighed, "I don't know how this connection thing between us got here, but it wasn't me. Humans don't got superpowers Zim. We take weeks to heal the slightest scratch wounds, our bones are like stupidly fragile. Like it's not funny." You put him down for a second.

You take off your trench coat and your blue ghost shirt throwing it to the ground. You're completely shirtless. You point to a scar on your shoulder.

"This is from your pak leg. It kept getting reopened cuz you're really good at stabbing there." You tell him.

"The cut on my face healed in I think four days. This burn mark on my back was from that time your laser caught my jacket on fire. These scars on my chest are from when your pak slashed through my shirt trying to claw me to death. This large scar ended me in the hospital, when your pak leg slashed my side as I was running away. They had to surgically sow up my spleen that took two weeks to heal." You tell him sighing.

Zim absentmindedly traces the scars with his gloved hands and you shivered as you looked at him your body trembling. You bite your lip as you held back the demand of asking him to take his shirt off too. To check for scars, but you didn't trust yourself to start doing lewd things to him. Even him just touching you like this was tempting you badly.

You looked down at your trench coat and your blue ghost shirt, they're still there. But now you just feel sadness.
You feel sad for what happened between the two of you.
