Leela's New Look
(This is my first futurama fanfic so don't be surprised if it sucks. Be considerate, and enjoy!)
Chapter 1
Leela had been looking forward to starring in a play for a few months now. After a lot of rehearsing, she was prepared. She had invited everyone to see her star in The Lonely Girl which was to be a tragic play about a girl who never fit in and was all alone. Leela felt like she could relate to this. At the theater, the Planet Express crew arrived. They all paid for their tickets at the front. Zoidberg started walking in without paying.
"Hey!" an employee yelled at him. "What do you think you're doing?"
"Wait!" Zoidberg cried. "I know the star! I shouldn't have to pay right?"
The man pulled out a stick and chased Zoidberg away.
"Uh oh!" Zoidberg shouted. "Woob woob woob woob woob!" He scuttled away.
Backstage, Leela was preparing and putting on her makeup. Fry, Bender, Professor Hubert Farnsworth, Amy, and Hermes were getting into their seats.
"I can't wait to see Leela in action!" Fry said to Bender. "I haven't been this excited since the time I stuck 40 cranberries in my mouth!"
"Ah, I remember that." Bender said. "Ah, those 5 days of you choking were the best days of my life." Bender chuckled.
The lights dimmed.
"Welcome to the theater of 3003." a voice echoed through the theater. "No disruptions during the play, no smoking, drinking, and for the love of God, people, don't spit on the people sitting in front of you. Enjoy the tragic play of The Lonely Girl."
The curtains rose and there stood Leela.
"What a sad life I have been living." she began speaking the lines in her script. "Oh if only I--"
"BOOOOO!" Bender yelled throwing millions of potato chips at Leela. Everyone started laughing and Leela ran off the stage crying. Even Leela's friends were laughing at what had happened.
The next day, everyone was at work asleep while Hermes was pointing at a chart explaining unimportant facts.
"And that's why you all will never get a raise." Hermes said coming to the conclusion in his presentation.
Fry and the others yawned and woke up.
"Anyone know where Leela is?" Fry asked.
"Haven't seen her since last night." Amy replied.
What's going on losers?" a harsh sounding voice called to them. They turned around to see Leela, but she looked different. She had eyeliner on, but it looked like she had been crying causing it to smear. Her lipstick was a charcoal black color. Her tank top was blackand had symbol of a broken heart on it, and she wore a black skirt with many fish nets. Her boots were the same though.
"Good Lord!" the professor cried. "Satan's come early for me!"
"No you idiot." Leela said, her voice still harsh. "It's me, Leela."
"Leela what's with you!" Amy asked. "Don't you know black is soooo not the in color this year?"
"I should dress the way I feel." Leela said folding her arms. "And I should express my anger whenever I feel like it!"
Leela saw Fry's Slurm can and grabbed it. She was prepared to smash it into her head.
"Leela wait it's--" Fry tried to stop her.
Leela tried to slam it into her forehead but ended up becoming unconscious.
"--not empty," Fry said finishing his sentence. "But it was GONNA be!"
"I don't understand." Amy said looking at Leela's unconcious body. "Why would feel so depressed?"
"Maybe because she's sick of looking at all of your faces!" Bender said. "I know I am!"
"Hm..." Zoidberg started thinking. "Maybe I should follow Leela's ways and express my anger and sorrow through clothing."
"Nobody cares what you think, you filthy lobster!" Hermes yelled at him.
Zoidberg scuttled away going "Woob woob woob woob woob!"
