CAS: We're here to take up space and introduce this story.
OIR: I like taking up space!
CAS: OIR, go get the list of things we're supposed to do!
OIR: Yes, ma'am. (Disappears from the room)
LYA: Don't you know what you're here for?
CAS: Of course I do. We're here to introduce the story and get everything out of the way.
LYA: then why did you send OIR to get--
CAS: To get rid of her. She gets in the way at times.
LYA: Oh, okay. Anyway, let's do what we are here to.
CAS: We're going to do disclaimers and everything now, so we don't interrupt the story later. Aren't we brilliant?
LYA: We don't own Invader Zim. Jhonen Vasquez does.
OIR: (reenters the room with the list) They do own themselves, and me!
LYA: Yes. On with the next order of business--
DAL: Wait a second, you do know who else you don't own.
CAS: Lya, how could you forget? We don't own Dal, Ray, or Lez.
DAL: They belong to me, Dal the banished.
CAS: Yes, they do.
LYA: As I was saying, before I was so rudely interrupted (glares at Dal), we need to introduce the story.
CAS: Yeah, we're going to run a quick summary here.
LYA: Two years have passed since Zim came to Earth, and we're all in seventh grade.
DAL: Actually, I'm in ninth grade.
CAS: Anyway, there's a fight in the first chapter.
LYA: (mutters) I wonder who it's between?
CAS: (ignores Lya) And, later on, some other weird stuff happens.
DAL: (whispers to Lya) What's Cas's problem?
LYA: (whispers back) I'm usually the one who is stating all the obvious things.
CAS: You should probably know that this story has been planned to have 16 chapters, excluding this one.
LYA: Yes, something's really wrong with her.
CAS: You won't hear any more from us until the end of the story. We previously stated that we don't want to interrupt the mood of the plot.
OIR: What's wrong with her?
DAL: She's the energizer bunny. She keeps going and going....
CAS: You guys are going to like this story! We spent weeks writing it!
LYA: Cas, give it a rest already!
DAL: You're going to scare away the readers!
OIR: (jumps onto Cas's head) You finished the list already.
CAS: Oh, heh heh. Sorry, I got carried away.
LYA: One final warning, heavy fancharacter content and involvement. If you are against fancharacters, leave now and don't waste you're time reading it and our time with a flame.
CAS: Now, without any further ado, go ahead and read chapter one. OIR, go get us some popcorn.
DAL: Popcorn?
CAS: Yeah, humans eat the stuff at movies, don't they?
LYA: (sniggers) Yeah, but this isn't a movie.
CAS: Oh, well. OIR, hurry with the popcorn!
OIR: Yes, ma'am. (she disappears into the kitchen)
DAL: Let's just start already.
OIR: I like taking up space!
