The fire filled her home, chasing her out, still clutching her baby brother
in her arms. Suddenly a man appeared behind her.
"Hello," he said in a deep voice.
"Leave me alone, Lou," she said glancing around and trying to find where the voice is coming from.
"Were boarding the ship," he began
"I DON'T CARE," she shouted, "I'M NOT LEAVING IRK."
"Come on," he whispered, "We can go to a new planet, get away from the war, and you can marry me, we'll be so happy."
Then a laser gunshot fired, barley missing her. Then a large soldier ran up and demanded she hand over her baby brother."
"NO," she yelled, not caring if she got hit for it.
The war on Irk had been going on for so long, but looking around she was till surprised that their once powerful and lively empire was in ruins. All the pretty girls were being married to Craten soldiers and all the other people were being beat, put to work, captured, and eventually killed.
"Just give me the boy," The masked soldier demanded.
"Give it to him," said Lou quietly avoiding eye contact.
"What happened to you Lou," she said, her voice willed with anger and sadness, "You used to be part of the Rebellion, then this guy offers you girls and power, and you run to them, WHY, WHY, WHY LOU?"
Lou held her arms behind her back, but not without a fight. She thrashed and screamed not allowing them to take her or her brother. Finally she had to give in to his strength. The other soldier laughed under his breath as he gently lifted her baby brother out of her arms and began to walk back to the ship.
"NO," she screamed, trying to break Lou's grasp.
But the soldier had already boarded the ship and that's when Lou let go of her. She ran toward the launch pad, but it was no use, he had already taken off.
"Let's go Nicole," he said, pulling her towards another ship.
"What happened to you," the teenage Irken whispered again.
"YOU WAN'T TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED," he yelled, "I DIDN'T WANT TO STAND AROUND AND WAIT FOR THE END OF IRK TO HAPPEN. I WANTED TO SURVIVE. NOW YOU, MY DEAR, ARE GOING TO GET IN THAT JAIL SHIP AND COME AWAY TO CRETAN WHERE WE WILL LIVE AHPPILY EVER AFTER."
"NO," she screamed, and with one last tug, pulled out of his grasp.
She ran as fast as she could toward one of the ships, and pushing the driver away, she slammed down the gas.
"COME BACK WITH THAT SHIP," came the distant shouts, but she could not hear them very well over the roar of the engine.
She knew there was only one more place to go, to her other younger brother, Zim.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
You like? Cretan is the name of a different planet I made up. The people from there look kinda like spiders. Except Lou, he's Irken. Nik is going to be used as short for Nicole she is Zim's older sister and you will learn more about her and their whole family soon. I want to know if it was good. PLEASE R+R
