Aai desided to just sent ZIR home while she head over to school. From across the street she watched all the kids enter the school. She noticed Zim and just had to laugh as she walked over. "Loser..." She mumbled to him as she walked by.
Zim growled back as he walked into the classroom and sat down.

“Class” crooned Miss Bitters, addressing the children. “Today I have a very special announcement, we have a transfer student from England who has come all the way from London. He will be in this class, observing the differences between how we teach this grade, and how he was taught in this grade.” The children looked at each other in confusion, chatter began and one girl raised her hand, “How old is he?” she asked, Miss Bitters narrowed her eyes. “That is irrelevant, however he is fifteen.” Just then Ace walked in, several of the girls blushed, nearly all of them giggled and one or two even fell out of their seats.
He ignored them all.
“Ace, please take a seat at the back of the class.” Miss Bitters drawled, even she looked vaguely impressed, he strutted down the aisle between the desk, pretending not to notice the love struck looks he was getting from the girls and the envious glares from the boys. He noticed immediately that the two green people he was looking for didn’t show the same sort of interest, there was no doubt they were his targets.
He sat in an empty seat in the back row furthest on the right. It was a very advantageous station, he could see both Zim and Aai in this seat without hassle. Many people turned to look at him again. But an icy glare from Miss Bitters had them all staring back at the blackboard very quickly. He took out a notebook and began to write things down, nobody noticed the rat in his pocket.

Aai looked at the new kid from the corner of her eye, 'weird..... Aai sighed, rolling her eyes, and began to doodle on a sheet of paper like she normaly did. She looked up to see Dib and Zim glaring at each other, Well, he's back to normal.... She thought to her self looking towards Zim.
"Hmm?" Aai's head turned towards Ace. I thought I saw........ a...mouse? She stared confused at his pocket, but shrugged and went back to listening to Ms. Bitters.

Ace reached into his pocket absent mindedly and stroked DIR, who nestled into his hand, this could have been considered affectionate, but in actual fact she was allowing them to talk telepathically, that was a feature of the prototypes, as long as there was physical contact between the two. ‘Are you getting all of this DIR?’ he asked, ‘It is all vital information.’ ‘Yes sir.’ she replied. He relaxed a little and withdrew his hand, continuing to scribble on his notepad.
It was really for show, all the information that could be seen, smelt or heard was being transferred straight to DIR. In time, he became bored, and started to draw up scientific diagrams for potential modifications and improvements to his spaceship.

"Doom, Doom, Doom-" The lunch bell rand as Ms. Bitters was talking. All the girls walked out giggling, glancing at Ace as they left, the boys sulked behind them. Zim and Aai stood up at the same time and walked out of the room. Neither of them looked towards Ace or Dib.

Dib got up to leave but Ace reached out and grabbed his sleeve, Dib jumped, he hadn’t even realised that Ace had left his seat. Ace glared at Dib, “You, what do you know about Aai and Zim?” he demanded. Dib didn’t like the tone in his voice, “Why should I tell you?” he asked, wary of this new kid’s strange behaviour. ‘Is this guy competition for me?’ he wondered, no, he wouldn’t tell this kid anything, he would be the one they would name the autopsy video for. “Tell me!” growled Ace, shaking the smaller boy. Dib wriggled out of his grasp, “No. I don’t know anything.”
Ace turned his back on Dib and strode out of the classroom, Dib was shocked by this sudden change in attitude, he walked out of the class in a daze and retreated to the cafeteria. “Did you copy all the information he has stored about the targets on his devices?” asked Ace, striding out into the playground. “Yes sir! Copied and filed away safely.” DIR replied faithfully. “Good girl,” praised Ace, sitting down in the shadow of a tree.

Aai was sitting in the top of a tree when Ace sat down bellow, 'Perfect She thought this was a perfect time to see if she really saw something in the classroom. She hid within the leaves of the tree.

A ringing noise came from inside Ace’s black jacket. Ace took out his ‘mobile’ and flicked it open, he pressed a button and a transmission projected itself out from the small screen. “Hello my Tallests” said Ace, bowing his head respectfully. “Hello Ace, how goes you mission?” queried the red tallest, “Successful so far, I have located the two targets in question, they do not appear to have made any indent in their missions to conquer this planet.” The purple tallest looked thoughtful, and the red one disappointed, “My Tallests, with all due respect,” began Ace, “This planet is pitiful, and it’s residents have already wrecked it beyond repair, is there really any point in taking it over? Couldn’t we just blow it up?” The Tallests shook their heads, “No Invader Ace, human slaves would be nice, and we want total domination of the whole universe, that includes this planet.”
Ace sighed, “Understood.” The Tallests cut the transmission, it appeared they really did want this planet, and here he thought it was just a way to get rid of that failure Zim and occupy Aai. DIR clambered out of his pockets, switched momentarily into a robot, and then became a raven. “Sir, another SIR presence had been sensed,” Ace tensed, scanning the area, “Where?” he asked. “Above us, sir,” replied DIR, Ace leapt to his feet and spun around, glaring up at the tree.

'Eep! Aai hid further into the tree, ' what a minute.... the tallest? He's... an invader? Why is another one here?' She thought to herself.

“DIR, x-ray mode.” He commanded, instantly DIR’s eyes became pitch black, she spotted Aai immediately. “Sir, the female alien is up there.” Ace sighed with relief, and let out a little laugh. ‘Oh, I thought it might be someone dangerous,” he brushed himself down and held his hand out to DIR, who flew onto it and then changed back into her rat disguise. He put her in his pocket and walked away, waving dismissively in Aai’s general direction.

Ace turned his head and smirked at Aai over his shoulder, “I meant exactly what I said,” he laughed, “That you are no threat to me,” he winked at her and then disappeared back into the school, drifting towards the cafeteria, mentally mapping the school’s layout.

Aai glared as Ace walked away. Aai crossed her arms and walked back to the tree. "ZIR" A small green rabbit jumped out of the tree. "Sir!" The rabbit stood up obideantly. "You know what to do now..." She said, "Well, this will be interesting." The rabbit nodded and jumped back into the tree.
Zim waited in the classroom.

As the bell to return to class rang, Ace walked into the classroom, he slowly walked past Zim, looking down his nose at him, and speaking in a voice only loud enough for DIR and Zim to hear, “Pathetic disguise Invader Zim,” he hissed, making his way down to his desk as if nothing had happened. DIR was alert in his pocket, he could feel her tense form, rigid. “What’s DIR?” he whispered, she could hardly tell him she had a bad feeling when she had nothing to back it up with, “Nothing sir,” she said, relaxing.
“Good, keep your eyes and ears open for anything useful” he said, “Keep an eye on Aai and he robot.” He said in a hushed voice, “Yes sir,” said DIR. She scanned for robotic presence, “Sir! Her robot isn’t with her.” Ace went rigid, “What?” he hissed, DIR was wise enough to know he didn’t actually want her to answer. He relaxed almost instantly, a robot was only as good as it’s master, and she was nothing troubling.
All the same, he put DIR in defensive mode, just in case.

Zim's head shot up, he turned to look at Ace, "What... did he say....." He muttered to himself.
"Zim, we need to talk later..." Aai said quietly as she walked by to go to her seat, noticing Zim nod when she sat down.
