Wicked

Chapter 1


The crowd stood in the open circle, cheering at the knowledge that they were told that the Invader of Earth was dead. They skipped around, raising their arms up, singing and dancing, until a short figure appeared behind the crowd. The people broke up into two rows so the figure could show himself down the empty middle between the aisles. The shadow walked closer, and closer, and once he got in the middle of the row, he pulled down his hood, revealing the head of Dib.

"I have news for you all. I have uncovered facts about him! Just look: he was actually from a different planet, born as a defect. Then, they sent him to Earth to be born there, and a happy couple received him, but they did not want him, because he was green. Then, he visited my dad- err, the Wizard- and when he learned he was actually Irken, he turned against him- I mean, the Earth!"

Dib panted. He had put the whole story in a nutshell and had almost broken his last promise to the Invader: to not clear his name, though they both knew the real story, that he was not in fact evil, but the twisted words of others led everyone to believe so. Dib shook his head, trying to clear his head of memories of the Invader. The thought of him made Dib shake with sadness of the death of his friend. Suddenly, the crowd whipped him away from his memories.

"That's not any cool info, Dib!" someone shouted.

"Yeah! Where's the good stuff? We already knew he was evil against the world!" another yelled. And with that, another shadow appeared. "Torque?" Dib confirmed as the figure appeared.

"Yep," Torque said. "And I have the real juicy stuff right here, everyone." He said, unfolding a paper with facts on it. "Let's see...Oh yeah. Dib was FRIENDS with the Invader!" Everyone turned at Dib, giving him glares of disgrace. Dib turned a shade of pink and tried to explain without giving anything away.

"Well...it depends on what you mean by friend! You see, we both went to Skool together, and it was a long time ago..."

"Like two weeks ago?" someone asked.

"Exactly." Dib said, looking up. "You see, it was at Elementary..."


Yay, Chapter 1! :3 Sorry it was so short, I just want to put the flashback in a separate chapter, cause that's what pretty much the whole rest of the story is. I promise the next one will be longer! Please tell me what you think of the plot so far, the next chapter will be out soon! And if you'd like, go ahead and take a guess at who will be who in the story. I mean, you all know who the Invader is, probably, but who will be the Boq of the story? Nessa? Take a guess. ^.^
