Invader Zim: Zim's Changes

Chapter 1

Dib's P.o.v
" Ms.Bitters, where's Zim been lately?" Her eyebrows twitched in annoyance, "Zim has left the school system, and moved out of state." My eyes widened in shock and my face paled as I started to sweat "W-When did he move? And where?" I was trying my hardest not to freak out. She growled "He was removed two weeks ago, as for where he moved I have no idea so be quiet for the rest of the year!!" I gulped and sat back down in my seat as the lesson for the day continued.

(6 hours later)
"Doomed. . .doomed. . .doomed." Brrrinnngg Ms.Bitters pointed at the door for us to leave so I shot out the classroom hoping to find Gaz quickly, I ran around the school twice until I found her playing on her Game Slave 2, I cleared my throat to get her attention "Gaz we have a major problem." She paused her game and looked at me through her squinted eyes. "What problem could be so important that you would break the one rule I set for you while we were at school?" I gulped nervously and cleared my throat, "Z-Zim left the school and the s-state, I don't e-even know if h-he's still on earth." The response I got wasn't the one I was expecting, she froze and the Game Slave slipped out her hands and shattered on the ground, her eyes widened in shock and I could see tears starting to form. "W-What?" Before I even had the chance to react she was already taking off out of the school, I started to chase after her "Hey Gaz wait up!!" Eventually we stopped in front of where Zim's house used to be, there was nothing there except dirt and holes in the buildings where he gained power from, Gaz broke down crying and started to mutter something, then I caught sight of something on the ground by where the door to the house would have been. "Hey Gaz come here." She didn't say anything and just walked over with me, I guess her and Zim were closer than I thought, I grit my teeth in rage, how dare that space trash make my sister cry!! I know me and him were supposed to be enemies but if he was actually able to make Gaz as happy as I'd seen her lately then I would have been fine with him, but now he had to go and disappear!! I guess I was ranting a little too much because next thing I know Gaz is tapping me on the shoulder, I turn and look at her and see a crying mess, she's holding a letter close to her chest and has another one for me. I take it and begin to read it not expecting what it was gonna say.

Dib,
I know we always had our differences between the two of us but I want all that to end, I know you're going to hate me for what I'm putting Gaz through but I have to leave. It kills me that I have to leave her it really does, but I have to and I just want you to know I give up on trying to conquer Earth, I realized how much this planet means to me, granted I had your beautiful sister to show me but I still figured it out. I know we never got off on the right foot but some day when I return I want a chance to start over. I most likely don't know when I'll be back but the day will come.
Love THE AMAZING ZIM
P.S Don't you dear touch Gaz's letter!!

I couldn't believe what I was reading, Zim is done trying to conquer earth!! I feel like shit for that being the first thought that came into my mind. Gaz and Zim must have become closer than I thought, I'll have to ask her about that later. "Why!?!?!" I turned around to see something that tore at my heart: Gaz was banging her fists on the ground with tears streaming down her face. "You said you loved me Zim!! You said you'd never leave me!!" I don't know what I was more shocked about, the fact that Zim left earth, or the fact that he and Gaz had something more than friendship hidden from me. I walked over to Gaz and knelt down right in front of her then I pulled her into a hug, she didn't resist at all she just...accepted it and kept crying. "It'll be alright, he'll come back someday."

Gaz's P.o.v
I ran as fast as I could to Zim's house with Dib struggling to catch up, "Hey Gaz wait up!!" I ignored Dib's attempts at gettong me to slow down so he could catch up and kept running towards Zim's house, when me and Dib got there I could feel my heart breaking, there was nothing left, his base was gone, I couldn't handle it so I fell to my knees and started to cry, when my emotions calmed down a little Dib motioned to two pieces of paper by where the front door of Zim's house was, one was addressed to me and the other was addressed to Dib. Dib started to rant over on the side so I walked over and picked up the pieces of paper I started to cry at the thought of these letters being the last of Zim we'll see or hear of for who knows how long, I tapped Dib on the shoulder to get his attention, when he turned around I guess I looked like a mess because he had concern all over his face. I handed him his letter and he turned back around to read it, I decided to open mine.

My Sweet Little Gaz,
The time we spent together was the best time of my life. I always thought my mission was the most important thing to me but it isn't, you are. I would go to hell and back if it made you happy, I know it hurts that I have to leave you but I have to, if there was some other way I would have taken it if it meant I was there with you. I have to leave to protect you and your stupid brother, if I don't do this I may end up hurting you and that is something I can't allow. I find it funny, I'm an irken invader who can't stand water but as I write this I can't stop the tears from forming, I guess it's my father's fault. I know you're gonna hate me when I come back but I just want the chance to explain why I had to leave you, I wish none of this had to happen but it has to. I left my PAK under some dirt by where the front door was, it has a pre-recorded message of why I had to leave, I want you to get my PAK and keep it safe, the PAK won't activate until the day I return to you, so that's how you'll know when I come back to you my love. I told Dib not to read this letter because I don't want him to be angry at you, I could honestly care less what he does to me, but what he does to you is my concern. I know you're probably hurt that I didn't even have the courage to tell you all this face-to-face but just know that I love you, always have and always will.
Love Zim Sparda
P.S Gir says she loves you too!!!

I dropped the letter and started to cry harder than ever before, I started to pound on the ground with my fists. "Why!?!?!" I kept pounding on the ground as I let out all my frustrations. "You said you loved me Zim!! You said you'd never leave me!!" I looked up and saw Dib kneeling in front of me, then he wrapped me up into a hug and strangely enough I let him. "It'll be alright, he'll come back someday. " I sobbed into his chest as he held me, I wish Zim was here.
