The bees had him. Zim's fake purple eyes begging for help as he is being carried away.
Dib's eyes glow, his fangs clenched along with the rest of his teeth in anger, and his wings spread, ripping through Dib's coat so they can be free.
In a flash he jumps from the ground and snatches the alien from the bees as he continues to fly as fast and as far as he can from the bees.
Zim is in shock. He did not see this one coming at all.

🔻"Y..you can fly?!"

Before Dib could verbally confirm Zim yells

🔻"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?!?! Everything would've been way easier and faster!!!"

🔷"I barely grew them last night! And then they retracted so I wasn't able to show you!"

The alien crosses his arms with a pout as he looks away like the grump he is.

🔷"Why are you angry at me for?? Specially when I'm saving you!!!"

🔻"Is that why your back was so itchy?"

Zim asks casually as they are still escaping from the bees.
Dib looks behind him to check if the bees were still chasing them. There weren't many bees felt, Dib's wings were much faster than regular bee's.

🔻"You made me scratch your back because of them. How annoying..."

Dib wasn't appreciating Zim's sass right now. Out of nowhere, a surprise group of bees fly in front of them to block their way.

🔻"GYAHHH!!!!"

Zim screamed as he wrapped his arms around Dib's neck. Dib makes a break with his wings by spreading them wide then giving a powerful flap as to send the new bees flying  away with the air from the momentum.
Now he chooses to fly down into the ground. He takes a step to stand and places a hand behind Zim's head as he looks around. They're in a dark ally in a dangerous part of town.
Seeing that they're safe though, Dib sighs. He takes a moment to enjoy Zim's warm hug. He wraps his half-human arm around the alien's back to calm his trembling.

🔷"We'll be safe for now. Don't worry"

A couple of minutes passed when Zim finally calmed down. They unwrap each other.
The alien starts looking around and marching in circles as he begins to think of a plan

🔻"Did you collect the things?"

A helpful smile grows on the half human's face just to break as he realized

🔷"I dropped them when I saw you on the street"

Causing the alien to smack his own face and release the most displeased sigh ever. This makes the vampire bee feel guilty for a fraction of a second before presenting his argument

🔷"I did it to save you"

🔻"I highly doubt that dropping the materials to fix your bee thingy was needed in order to help"

Dib's eyes began to glow slightly

🔷"I panicked okay?! You were being taken by the bees"

🔻"Then maybe you should've use your crazy bee speed to take the things to my base first!"

The alien argues as he crosses his arms and gives his back to the vampire, whose eyes glowed more

🔷"It's a little hard to do that when you're begging for my help"

Zim flinches heavily at the remark and his face instantly heats up

🔷"'help me!' 'Save me Dib!'"

He teased as he exaggerated his impression of the distressed alien, who is embarrassed to the brim. Zim grits his teeth and growls before turning around and pointing a stiff finger at Dib

🔻"TH-THAT IS YOUR FAULT!!!"

🔷"HOW IS THAT MY FAULT?!?"

Zim's arm lowered as his pointing finger unstiffened, just as his angry expression dropped into an anxiously shy one

🔻"m-maybe if you weren't so nice and kind to me when you're not on your bee form, my relying feelings wouldn't have developed this much..."

His voice shaky and shy.His gaze dropped to the ground. Dib's eyes stopped glowing as they heard such soft voice coming from such a red, embarrassed, face.
"'Relying feelings'? Did he just confess to me?"

Dib walked towards the ashamed alien to embrace him. The warm hug managed to calm Zim's rapid heartbeat, which is Dib's intention.

🔷"Zim..."

The hug was relaxing. Some steps are heard as a guy with a knife approaches them.

"What are two teens doing around these parts of town?"

He said as he walked towards them. His eyes focused on the smaller one, ready to stab him.
Dib moves him away and holds him protectively against himself. This causes Dib's antennae to twitch out of rage. His eyes glow as he shoots daggers and hisses through gritted fangs at the assaulter. Who pissed himself because of the death expression the monster had.
Zim is wrapped around Dib's arms and new vampire cape. The alien separates his face from the vampire's chest to notice the cape surrounding him. It seemed to have formed from Dib's coat.

🔻"How interestingly strange..."

Zim thought. He innocently calls Dib, without realizing that his hiss was still audible and his eyes were radiating.

🔻"Dib!"

He called nicely before jumping at the sight of the monster holding him so close.
Hearing his name coming from the green mouth, instantly calms his mind. In the blink of an eye Dib's kind nerdy expression is present again.

🔷"Yes?"

Zim is taken aback. He did not expect the change to be so quick. Seeing as the alien is still analyzing what just happened, Dib extends his wings to then create a wall surrounding both of them. He shields himself and specially Zim protectively with his wings

🔷"This is a dangerous place. We need to get out of here"

He said with his hands on Zim's shoulders

🔻"But is it safer out there?"

That's right. The bees are still out there. Plus, they need to get back the items to cure Dib. He can't afford to leave the alien alone at the moment.

🔷"I'll take you home. Gir can guard you while I retrieve the materials"

He says as they begin to walk. His wings coating and keeping Zim close to him.

🔻"But! If I cure you.. you won't have super bee powers. And you won't be able to fight the bees"

He said as he brought his gloved hand to his own mouth as to bite out his nail from anxiety.
"He's right. There has to be something we can do"
Dib thought as he walked Zim home.
After a long walk, before they reached Zim's home, he came up with an idea.
