The students sat in class as the informational video played. The boy screamed and screamed and hopped and screamed from bladder strain. All but two of the students were in a disturbed, hypnotic silence. Dib, who remained uncaring, and Zim, who sat sniggering at the stupid hyumin wormbaby's stupid foolishness.
There was a dry buzz from the front of the room as the digital projector shorted. When the screaming abruptly stopped, Dib looked up. Half of the children in the classroom were nearing emotional exhaustion. A few passed out. The young paranormal investigator sighed, happy that the assault on his ears had ceased, yet annoyed at the fact that the projector had broken. He stood up. "I'll fix it," he muttered. With his father being who he was, it was hard for Dib to not have a knack with machinery.
He stepped forward to be greeted by another dry buzz, louder this time, as the player burst into flames.
He frowned deeply as the sprinkler system flooded the classroom to whining cries of, "Dib broke it!"
Do not be alarmed! I promise, the page is fully loaded! The peculiar thing about this story - besides its characters, of course - is that is DOES have a plot, sort of, but it's not broken into chapters. It's broken into MOMENTS. Which means that almost every chapter is painfully short. After a while, it WILL all come together, but bear with me until we can get into the swing of things, eh? BECAUSE these moments pass very quickly, I will post two moments every time I upload (after this upload, of course). Which should be every week or so.
Also, I want you guys to keep an eye out for all the allusions included in the story. There's one in this chapter, to start you off, but I won't be as generous in the future if you're playing this game with me. You have to find them on your own.
I don't even know if anyone reads these things...
