Hello people of the internet! I'm super excited to finally be able to post something and I hope everyone enjoys what I've written. This is going to be a KennyxOC fanfic and Eventual TweekxOC so if you don't like it don't read it. I have many more fan fictions that I will eventually upload, but I'm posting this first for my friend NikkCreatingBeauty because she really wanted to read it. ^w^
Ok so I know I just posted the first chapter but I decided to add the second part of the intro to this instead of spitting it into two chapters because this seemed really short.
Disclaimer: I don not own South Park or any of the show's characters. I only own my OC.
The first time Kenny noticed her was in the middle of 6th grade. Cartman had found out about the girl's fear of bugs and planned out a prank to make the girl's life miserable.
She had moved to South Park during the summer and had managed to stay off the radar for almost half of the school year due to her shy nature and apparent lack of social skills. Without a single friend she faded into the background enough for even Cartman to ignore her. Unfortunately for the quiet brunette, her mother called Wendy's mother and suggested a sleepover in an effort to help her daughter meet some children her age. Apparently the girls had taken a shine to her and decided to play 'truth or dare'. In retrospect, they should just call it 'truth' because the girls rarely took a dare. They probably asked silly things like 'what boys do you like?' and 'who's your favorite movie star?', but when it was the new girl's turn she was asked what her fears were. She had answered with a typical girl answer of 'bugs', but nothing about it was typical. The girls were completely unaware that it was more of a full blown phobia than a simple fear.
The girls at their school were not exactly known for being tight lipped so the fear was heard by Cartman as soon as the weekend had ended. After that he decided that they new girl needed to learn to respect the great Eric Cartman. Kenny, Stan, and Kyle just ignored his ramblings about giving the girl a scare and continued on with the rest of the week.
That Friday, the unsuspecting victim sat alone in her usual spot at recess as the fat ass snuck up behind her with a jar of bugs. Kyle, Stan, and Kenny kept their distance but still snickered as their friend pulled the lid off the jar and beetles rained down upon her. At the sight of a bug that had landed on her arm, she let out a wail and franticly began shaking them off. The children laughed as she ran screaming and fell face first into the snow. The beetles were definitely off but she didn't make a move to either run away crying or scream at Cartman, instead she continued to lay motionless.
The laughter died down and everyone was curious to know if she fainted so while Cartman continued to laugh hysterically, Kenny and his friends jogged over to see if she was alright. Being the first to get close enough, Kenny realized she was trembling and picked up the pace. The look on her face floored him and he felt a sinking feeling in his gut.
Her chocolate brown eyes were teary and wide with fear and she was hyperventilating. She didn't seem to be aware that he was kneeling next to her. Kenny patted her arm just as Stan and Kyle reached them and her response was immediate. She let out a cross between a sob and a scream and looked into his eyes. She was shaking more violently with fear and as he looked into her eyes he felt a strange feeling take hold of him. He knew it was guilt. For the first time ever her felt guilty for laughing at one of Cartman's victims.
"Go get the nurse." He instructed and Stan was off. It was deathly quiet in the playground, with the exception of Cartman's unrelenting laughter. She curled up in the fetal position and started whimpering softly when Stan reappeared with the nurse and the principal. The nursed crouched next to Kenny and spoke to the girl softly to calm her down while their principal turned to their fat friend.
"Eric Cartman, stop laughing this instant and come with me!" She yelled and the large boy wiped his tears as he walked towards them.
"Pfft- oh my gosh you guys did you see that? Sh-she fuckin' squealed like a little bitch! Ahahah!" Kenny glared at his friend and trudged up to him. He was feeling something else now, looking at Eric's smug face. He felt enraged with himself for not stopping the prank, but more so with Cartman himself for being an asshole. Cartman saw Kenny approaching and grinned.
"Dude! Kenny! She's such a bitch!" Kenny growled and punch Cartman in the face so hard he was sure he broke his nose. The fat boy screamed profanities at him and the principal called his name but he continued walking all the way home.
The following Monday nearly everyone apologized to her and some even gave her gifts. She shyly accepted the apologies and insisted that it was no big deal. The girls all tried to include her more, feeling guilty about letting her secret get out in the first place. Just like that she was suddenly pulled out of the background, but it also meant that Cartman would insult her along with the rest of the girls at their school. While he never pulled any physical pranks on her after the bug incident, he constantly called her ugly and insulted her looks. It was obvious that it was taking its toll on the self conscious girl, but she never reacted with much more than staring glumly at the floor. It wasn't until the last week of the 8th grade did she capture Kenny's attention again.
Cartman was sitting behind her loudly chewing some sugary gum, when he decided he would stick some in her hair. For him it was a pretty tame prank, but it was enough to make her snap. He roared with laugher upon her discovery of the gum and Kenny looked over in time to see the change in her eyes. It was like the shy girl had gained confidence within her newfound rage at the fat jerk. She stood and turned to face her tormenter, who was now mocking her between laughs.
In one swift movement she grabbed Cartman by the hair, threw him onto the floor, and proceeded to kick his teeth in. She was sent to the office but Kenny had never seen her look so happy. It was then that he knew she was finally going to fit in to South Park just fine.
The start of freshman year was the beginning of many changes in all of their lives. They didn't have as many crazy adventures after 5th grade, but any sort of weirdness came to a screeching halt when they started high school. It was like they were normal kids for once.. well as normal as they could be in South Park. They still had their fair share of weirdos living there and Kenny still died on occasion, just no more aliens or giant evil trapper keepers.
The first day of high school Stan, Kyle, Cartman and Kenny all compared schedules. Kenny sighed when he realized he wouldn't have any of his friends in his classes for most of the day. However, he didn't really care too much because he was just a background character to their group. He was never the first one Stan or Kyle or even Cartman invited to hang out, but it was to be expected with him constantly dieing. It was like he wasn't real.
After they separated he strolled into his first hour and sat in the back to hide from whoever his new English teacher would be. Not long after he had put his head on his desk to relax, did he hear someone collapse into the seat next to his and drop their bag on their desk loudly. He turned his head to see who his new neighbor was for the rest of the year and was surprised to see familiar brown eyes meet his gaze. She seemed… different. She had a more confident look in her eyes than she once had.
Her brown hair was up in a neat bun and she was wearing new black ear muffs. She was also wearing skinny jeans and a black band shirt under her large fluffy jacket. It was obviously a men's jacket and he vaguely wondered where she got it, she didn't seem the type to be getting around. He also noticed that she didn't have on any make-up, but she really didn't need it because her skin looked so smooth. If he didn't know better he would've thought she was too young to be starting high school.
"Um.. Are you ok?" She waved her hand in front of his face and he realized he had been staring. His face reddened and he nodded in reply, trying to hide in his orange parka like he usually did. "You're Kenny right?" He nodded again and realized he didn't know her name. In fact this was the first time he had heard her speak. Her voice was soft and sweet. She smiled and stuck out her hand. "I don't think we've ever formally met, I only know who you are because Wendy is dating your friend Stan. I'm Chiya." He shook her hand, giving her a lazy smile she couldn't see and they went back to waiting for the class to start.
It didn't take long for him to notice they had almost every class together. She continued to sit next to him in them all, even when Wendy or Bebe or any of the other girls walked in. He asked her once why she didn't want to sit with her friends and she shrugged telling him her friends were too loud. When they left for lunch he asked if she wanted to try sitting with his friends for a change. At first she looked hesitant, knowing every well that Eric Cartman would be there but she shook it off and followed him anyway.
Somehow she became a part of their group seamlessly and it didn't take long to find out that the girl cursed like a sailor when comfortable. It was surprising the first time she told Cartman to "shut his fucking mouth or she'd beat his fat ass again" because she was usually so quiet, but she had earned their respect and became part of the gang.
Fast forwarding a few years, Chiya and the guys were a tight knit group by the time their break before senior year was coming to a close. By then Kenny had gone through a growth spurt and thrown out his too small orange parka, trading it for a larger dark grey one. He also no longer hid under his hood, much to the delight of the female population of their school. Stan had become a star athlete at their school so he no longer wore his dorky poof ball hat, instead he let his shaggy black hair free and wore his lettermans jacket, which of course had his football number sewn into it. Kyle had finally found a way to tame his jew fro and didn't feel the need to hide under a hat anymore. He hadn't joined any sports so he hadn't bulked out like Stan, but he was the tallest and the scrawniest now. It fit well with his nerdy looks. He was usually the most put together of the group and with his new glasses his appearance screamed 'honor roll'. Cartman had undergone the most surprising transformation with his appearance. He was the same old asshole on the inside but on the outside he was a bulky football player. He was still the largest but a majority of it was muscle mass and they supposed all his talk about being big boned was true. Cartman had joined the football team to let out some aggression and it had helped improve his looks quite a bit, it was too bad he was such a bigot or he would've been more popular with the girls. Chiya was the only one who hadn't changed her look since freshman year, she still wore her beloved band shirts and skinny jeans with her big jacket with a fluffy interior (that Kenny now knew was given to her by an older cousin) and her black ear muffs. She was probably the only girl in the school that didn't wear make up or fix her hair, she preferred the natural look with a neat bun to top it off.
The group was excited for their last year to start, all for different reasons. The week before school was starting up they were busy preparing for the new year, and Chiya was home with her otaku mother watching some anime.
"Hey mom, what was your senior year like?" she asked in between episodes. Her mother paused and smiled at her daughter. She had the same youthful face as her daughter and her eyes were only a slightly different shade of brown under her maroon glasses. Her soft brown hair was cut in a short bob that framed her face well and had sight waves due to her allowing it to air dry. Her mother was half Mexican and a quarter Polish with a little German, French, and Austrian mixed in. She was an American Mutt, but it made for a pretty combination. They had a close mother daughter relationship and Chiya knew her mom was always there if she needed advice.
"Feeling a little nervous are we?" the older brunette chuckled. Chiya's face reddened slightly and she nodded. "I see, well my last year wasn't that great. I didn't have loyal friends like yours in high school besides your Aunt Dominique, but even she had moved before my senior year. I wasted the whole year trying to make new friends and hanging out with my boyfriend most of the time instead of trying to have fun before I graduated." she sighed with a look of sad nostalgia in her eyes. "It's different for everyone, but I think you'll be ok with the guys around. They have your back and besides you're like me, you're very secure with yourself so you don't have to spend the year learning who you are and what you want like most eighteen year olds. Just have fun and enjoy being a kid." Chiya smiled and rolled her eyes.
"I'm not a kid, mom." He mother chuckled and messed up her hair.
"My, you certainly didn't get your need to be and adult from me. It must be your father's genes. Just trust me and be glad you don't have to be responsible yet." With that her mother continued with the next episode of whatever they were watching and Chiya fiddled with her hair. Maybe she would go get a hair cut later.
