7An: Hey guys. I've been in a rough time now and I apologize for not writing any short stories or that Return To Earth ZADR at all lately. Basically what I'm trying to say is that I will be posting later and later since my family and I are going through insanity. At least I'm still sane...Stay with me for now and I'll try to post more stories on here.
''Get out of here! You are a disgrace!'' The owner of the bar pushes him out and he stumbles from being intoxicated. He hiccups and has a flushed face and walks down the street; holding onto a beer bottle in his hands and drinks it.
''Bah who needs hem! I'hve got taht guy at...what'z namee agaien? Membrianopoop? Yeh that's et!'' He laughs weirdly and enters a dark part of the park and sits on a bench; looking up at the purple and black sky.
If you could already guess by now, then congratulations. Dib was now a legal 24 year old man living by himself and usually goes out to the bar to drown himself away. But it gets carried away and he gets drunk, disturbing nearby customers and getting thrown out again. What happened to the paranormal investigator we all knew and love? Well...you can blame Dib's father on that one.
Membrane forced him to stop being a paranormal investigator. He kept telling him that he should be something even greater; a doctor or maybe even a therapist. He just sighed and went along with him. Besides, it has been 3 years since he's been ranting on and on about it.
So Dib went to Law School and he actually finds interest in it. It took him 2 years to become a lawyer and he got paid well, started his life on his own in Florida, and he's moving up in his career. He never lost a single case and got plenty of achievements and awards.
He was basically the number 1 lawyer in the state of Florida.
Today, Dib looked the same as he was before. His black scythe hair on top of his large head, deep hazel eyes, and big round glasses on his pale face. His clothing was changed a little though. A dark blue t-shirt, black skinny jeans and black combat boots. Of course when he's working, he's wearing a fancy suit with a tie.
Dib stood up from the bench once he feels confident on walking home and stumbles over to his house. Late night drivers honk their horns at him in greeting since everyone knew him. Dib just hiccuped and waved.
Dib reached his house and entered with his keys rattling and the sound of the door opening and closing. He shrugged off his suit jacket and moved to his bedroom and took off his suit pants to reveal his blue boxers and lays on the bed. "That case with the wife murdering her husband was a tough one..."
He sighed heavily and stared at the ceiling and looked over at his bedroom window. He could stare at the stars for hours; examining on how they sparkle. For some reason, he can't seem to look away, as if they're hypnotizing him into place; literally. Dib always wondered what was beyond those stars. Planets, Aliens, maybe even something beyond the black hole.
Just beyond his thoughts, he sees a twinkle of some sort and Dib runs to the balcony and opens it; looking up at it in amazement. "That's new...I've never seen anything like that before." The twinkle comes back and the star gets bigger as it heads straight for Dib.
His eyes widen and he stared at the star and noticed it was some type of meteor; making a explosion in his backyard. He quickly slipped on a pair of pants and ran out to see fire around the object. The flames soon died down when he noticed a purple ship..
"W-What?" He took a cautious step forward when the cockpit of the ship opens and a green figure leans over; crawling out of the wreckage, looking up at Dib with his glowing orbs.
"P-Please...h-help me..." It spoke. Dib, however, was shocked. The green figure looked rather short and had green skin. There were two black antennas on his head and his red eyes for orbs seem to be glowing in the dark night.
Dib moved over and carefully picked him up in his arms. He looks rather hurt... He frowns and walks into his house again and placed him on the couch, going through his bathroom to look for medical supplies to help him.
He moved back to the living room and took the aliens torn and burned shirt off to see the flawless, glowing, and green skin. He blinked and noticed he didn't have a bellybutton or nipples and shook his head, wrapping bandages around his torso.
The alien slowly opened his eyes and looked at Dib; his eyes half-lidded from being weak. "T-Thank you..." Dib looks at him with his hazel eyes and smiles, "Your welcome."
He sighed and closed his eyes, "...Most people would've killed me by now...Why didn't you do the same?"
Dib blinks and looks at him with wide eyes and a small smirk, "Because I'm different." He finished wrapping the bandages around him and brings out alcohol and a cotton ball to clean the green blood on his head.
The alien opens his eyes again to look at him and winces from the pain of the alcohol. "I don't see how you look different..." Dib just made a laugh.
"Not physically but mentally. My emotions feel that I don't need to kill you. You seem harmless enough." Dib looked into his eyes once the blood was clean and smiles. "So what's your name, little alien?"
He smirked from the nickname, Little Alien but smirked none-the-less. "My name, Human, is Zim..."
