The New Student
Zim was at school, listening to Mrs. Bitters' dreary "horrible" lecture about the "horrible" world and how it would implode on itself. Then the phone on her desk rang. When Mrs. Bitters was done with the phone conversation, she announced, "Class, it seems we have a new 'horrible' student. Her 'horrible' name is Luna. Give her your 'horrible' welcome." With that, a small girl walked into the classroom. She was a very pale girl with white hair bound in a ponytail with a light blue bow. Her eyes and her dress were that shade of blue. She was very shy. "Hello, Luna." The class greeted her. Mrs. Bitters assigned her a seat next to Zim. Then she continued her "horrible" lecture. Zim glared at her with suspicion. Luna just smiled at Zim. Dib had a dreamy look on his face.
In the cafeteria, Zim was sitting by his lonesome, picking at the icky slop the skool called food. "May I sit next to you?" A voice squeaked out. It was Luna. Zim, all of a sudden, asked, "Why would you want to sit next to me? What are you up to? Are you an enemy spy working for the Moonies?" "Actually, it's because I noticed you don't sit with anyone." Luna replied. Zim sighed, "I guess" She sat closely to his left and opened her lunch satchel. "Don't like the skool food, do you?" She asked. Zim replied, "Actually no." Luna's luch satchel contained bread that had a bluish-white crust. She broke it in half and gave Zim one of her halves. Zim decided to eat it. It was delicious and it didn't make him sick. It was sweet, almost like honey. She also had light blue noodles, which had a vinegary taste. His body also accepted it.
It was time to go home. It started raining and Zim could not leave the overhang. "May I walk you home, Zim?" Luna asked. Zim asked, "How can I? The water harms me." "I have an umbrella. It'll protect you from the water." Then she brought out an umbrella. It was light blue with white lace. She walked Zim to his place first, and then went to her own place, which was across the street from his. It was a white house with blue shutters and blue window frames. It looked cheery with a lot of flowers. The flowers on her yard were highly unusual. They were white with blue edges, and in the full moon, they sparkled.
