Demon Dib chapter five

     I woke up to see Chili poking my arm. He looked up at me with worry. "Master, you have bruises all over you, and your clothes are ripped." He pointed out quietly. I was laying on my stomach, I usually never lay on my stomach. I rolled over onto my back and yelped as pain shot across my body. Chili helped me sit up and he took off my coat and shirt and gasped. "M-master? What happened!?" he asked hysterically. I didn't want to worry the little guy so I quickly came up with something. "I...crashed my bike, while riding to the store...to get snacks." I answered. The look on Chili's face told me he didn't buy it. "Nice try master, you don't have a bike." he stared me down for a while. I sighed and told him everything that happened last night. He climbed up onto the bed next to me and stared up at me. "I think you should stay inside for a while, whoever those men were they were out to hurt you master." I managed to get my shirt back on then my coat. "I'm going to Jewel's house, stay here." Chili gave me a stern look but I brushed past him and down to the living room. I walked outside and ran across the street. It was a good thing Jewel lived right across from my house. I knocked on the door and her SIR unit, JAZ, answered the door and looked up at me. She turned around "DIB'S AT THE DOOR!!" she screamed. "Coming!!" I heard Jewel from somewhere in the house. a couple minutes later she came running to the door, in her disguise. Jewel is an alien like Zim, but she's different, she's a good alien, but has a demon form when you get her mad, I usually try to stay on her good side. She glanced at me "Oh my god! What happened?" I spilled out what had happened to me last night. After I had told her she got this horrified look. "So you blacked out and woke up in the woods?" She asked. I nodded I had decided against showing her all the bruises, I didn't want to scare her more. "I was hoping you could tell me what's happening to me..." She yanked me inside and slammed the door. She then pointed to the couch. "Sit." She commanded. I slid over to the couch and sat down while Jewel paced back and forth in front of me. "What did you do this time Dib?" She asked me. "I didn't do anything!! I just...uh...went to this factory...and..." She cut me off. "What factory!?" I flinched. "The old boarded up one in the woods..." She turned and faced me. "Then what??" She practically blew up at me. I tried to recall what happened after that. "I...I don't know..." She put her face in both her hands and groaned. I tried to shift so not as much pressure was on my back, once again it felt like it was on fire. I rolled over on the couch and laid on my stomach. Jewel started talking again, but I felt myself getting sleepy, soon her voice faded away.

     Everything was zooming by impossibly fast, trees, light posts, people as small as ants. Screaming everywhere, I focused on someone that looked familiar, green skin, red shirt, gray pak with pink spots. I knew him, he was the enemy. I swooped down and grabbed him by the shirt collar. He screamed and flailed, but I gripped him tightly. I soared back up into the air, my victim trembling in my grasp. He stared at me, fear was clear as day in his eyes. "D-Dib..?" He squeaked out. I glared at him and dug my claws into his neck, trying to get him to be quiet. I looked around and spotted a cliff, I landed there and placed the scared alien down. He scooted off to a hole in the cliff face. But that was ok, I could wait, after all, he had to come out, sooner or later.  I sat down at the entrance to the hole and peered in, he had his back to me, my reflection in his pak. I seen my self for the first time. Huge red leathery wings, bright solid red eyes, large fangs and claws. Now I knew why the alien was so afraid, didn't he know I just needed help? I prodded him with a claw and he cried out. "L-Leave me a-alone Dib beast!!" He screeched at me. I managed to drag him out after a while and sat on him so he wouldn't go hide in the hole again. "Ok Ok I'll do what you want me to do!! Just get off me!!" He screamed, clawing at the ground. I quickly sat up and grabbed his collar and launched off the cliff. Then spread my wings and lifted up into the air, I knew where I needed to be. I flew over the woods and into an abandoned looking building. I set the alien down and walked, on all fours, over to a large cage. I grunted for him to follow me, as he came closer there was shifting in the cage. "What is that thing?" He whispered. The animal lifted it's large furry head at the voices. It stared at the small alien and roared. I flinched and ran into an empty cage and crouched down. The alien stared at me. "What are you doing? Get out of there!" He scolded me. I whimpered and remained in the cage. I sensed those two people here again, lying in wait in the shadows.
