Hello everyone! I'm back! But.. not my usual fics. Well, Not the same category as usual. Just to explain this a little so you know what's going on throughout this story, Licorice is the main OC I use for all my fics if you haven't read my past ones, if you don't like OCx or just plain oc stories, Stop reading. Now. So, Licorice is different then the chars on IZ, She is an anime char! -dundunDUNNN- IF you don't like anime, Stop reading. NOW. I don't want to get any s*** about how anime shouldn't be collided with this blahblahblah. I have tried very hard to get the anime/iz thing to blend together.. So yes, Licorice IS taller, I did make her slightly shorter, I'm saying that the main chars [besides gir] is probably 4 feet, Licorice is 4"9. And there is MINOR Tokyo Mew Mew crossover, not enough to put in crossover stories. when it comes to the half animal part, Anime in general can be half animal, not just Tokyo mew mew. So anyway, enough with my introduction, ON WITH MY FIRST IZ STORY THAT MAY BE OOC, DONT KILL ME FOR IT! -bricked-
We start with a dimension that is very clean, the people are smart, everything is green, and walking in a well-attained park is a girl that always stood out even in this kind of world, not particularly in a bad way, but sometimes not in a good way. She had long waist-length black hair, and red eyes, people wondered WHY she had red eyes, after all, it isn't a usual eye color. But what stood out the most, is her ears... and tail? Yes, she was part black cat. Nobody knew why, but that's beside the point. She walked along, keeping her head downward so she didn't face anyone, every once in a while someone would point her out as the "cat-freak", occasionally just the "cat-girl" She had likers and haters. She reached a building that was out of the ordinary, hard to explain, it was different colors of pink.. she walked in, down some stairs and into a very metallic-looking area, nowhere was there one person but her, still she tiptoed to a very unrealistic looking.. machine? If you could call it that, in the middle was blue-ish green beams of light, it had multiple settings, it stated them as "1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th dimension" It said on the top scrolling by "You are in the 5th dimension"
"I wonder what that means? I wonder, what this thing is at all.." She whispered quietly to herself as she traced her fingers over the metal part of it. She walked all the way around it staring in awe at the beams of light that came down in the middle of it, they sparkled immensely, and sometimes would actually change colors slightly.
"Well.. I guess I better not touch it anymore.. It's probably not a good idea."
She stood there for a moment staring at it for a while longer, before eventually turning around to leave. Big mistake. By turning around too fast she bumped into a control on the.. machine. It twisted a little knob and it started making weird noises. She turned around to see, and on the top scrolling bar it said "3rd dimension" Suddenly lights of all colors came out of it flying in different directions. She fell over and stared at it silently as she couldn't say anything, the colors wrapped around her and she passed out, she flew through a tunnel of odd swirling, twisting colors before landing in the middle of a park.. If you could call it a park, the grass was hardly green, the benches were made with rotted wood, it looked all unclean.
Eventually she woke up; she slowly sat up and held her head. It throbbed with odd pain that she hadn't felt before. She tried to adjust her eyes as everything was a blur. When her eyes went to normal, she gasped and jumped up. She looked around at the horribly un-attained city that she was in, the... people...ish.. things.. looked so much different, they looked unclean and unintelligent compared to where she came from. Then her eyes widened..
"Third... Dimension.." She whispered out, the portal must've taken her to this different place. She could hardly remember anything. She put her hand back to her head as the throbbing started again in her head. She started walking, wobbling almost constantly with her eyes just open enough to see where she was going. She passed by people who stared at her very oddly.
"Apparently to them I'm odd.. to me their odd..." She thought, she wondered how she would get out of this world, if at all.
She walked for a while, to her what seemed like miles, she reached a very plain, ugly looking building, she couldn't make out what it said because her eyes still slightly blurred. She reached a tree and sat down underneath it.
"This is just so weird..." The throbbing in her head started to ease and her eyes started to avert to normal. She laid her hand beside her and started to observe everything around her. There seemed to be alot of kids around the building.
"This must be a school" She thought to herself as she looked at it, completely un-maintained, she shivered just looking at it, it definitely was not what she was used to seeing.
"Hey, look, it's some weird freak-thing!" Some odd looking kid ran up to her, still a distance away, pointing amongst a few others.
"E-excuse me?" The cat-girl honestly quite politely said, she wrapped her tail around her and stared at them.
"You heard what I said, what's your name... weirdo" They laughed as they stared at her odd appearances.
To be honest, she's quite shy, but she still doesn't like to hear that from anyone. She stood up with her fists curled and stared at them; her eyes almost seemed as if they glowed slightly.
"Look, my names Licorice. I'm not here because I want to be, I'm not even sure why. To you, maybe I'm weird, but to me, YOU'RE weird. So please. If you have insults, take them somewhere else because I don't want to hear it!" She was much louder then usual. It seemed as if everyone just... stopped. And stared. Like they never heard someone talk back to them before or something. She ignored that.
"I'm just gonna go in this ugly building and ask.. where.. apartments are or something.. I don't know" She whispered ever-so quietly as she whipped around, her hair swung to the side and flowed to her back, she literally stomped away as the three.. people just stared in awe as if no one had ever spoken to them in such manner.
She swung the rather heavy metal-looking doors open. She shook her hand in disgust since the door was so un-kept and dirty.
"Gosh, this is just so.. disgusting.." She talked to herself, she figured no one was inside, she was wrong. She stopped and stared at 2 people.. or.. well, one.. or two, she's not really sure. To be honest, they actually looked pretty normal compared to what she had seen outside. They definitely looked more intelligent. Except one was a lot different.. he had.. green skin? Oh well. She shook that fact off.
"Maybe they can help me.. they do look smarter then the rest" She thought once again to herself. She hesitated to walk up to them since they were fighting.. about something. She couldn't really understand. But she decided she would anyway if she wanted to figure out how to get out of here.
She took slow steps up to them until they heard footsteps and looked over.
"Um, hello. My name is Licorice. I'm kind of here.. by accident and I was wondering if you could help me?" Her shy mode became once again. She was never good at approaching strangers, but she knew she had to.
"Uhh.." Was all one of them could say, he had rather dark clothing, but something on his shirt that was.. yellow. She didn't really pay much attention.
"I- know it sounds weird, most people probably don't just stumble upon a place like this and get lost. It's really a long, unbelievable story that I'm sure no one wants to hear." She smiled shyly to both. Although the one with dark-ish red clothes on didn't seem to care much, except for waving some weird control around her silently.
"Riiiightt... Uh, what are you looking for?" The one with black clothes asked.
"Oh.. well.. I guess.. a place to stay? I don't know.. apartments.. hotel.. house, whatever. If you have anything that provides that service?" She tried to sound intelligent. She'd hate to sound like the people that walked around her. They both stared slightly for just a few seconds as if they hadn't heard of someone around her but themselves speak so intelligent sounding. It seemed they were both about to say something until a bell on the wall rang, quickly the doors slammed open as people rushed through and into a.. room. A classroom Licorice figured.
"Just, come with me, since you're new here you'll need to be in school." The one with the black clothes said, the other person was already gone aswell. He leaded off to the room quickly.
"O-okay..." She quietly said, following rather slowly.
"Oh, by the way.." The boy stopped and turned around quickly, causing her to stop.
"Yes?" She said nicely.
"I just wanted to tell you my name. My name is Dib"
"Oh. Well, Nice to meet you. I- think I already told you my name.. but incase you didn't hear, my name is Licorice. You can call me Lici though if it's easier." She spoke very politely; apparently no one had spoken so nicely before in this school.
Eventually they got into the room, still only about a minute late.
"Your late, Dib" A rather creepy woman said, sitting at the teacher desk. Licorice stared; she wasn't going to like this at all.
"Sorry, but this is Licorice, she needs to be enrolled."
Licorice waved a little bit and weakly smiled. You could tell she wasn't enthusiastic at all.
"Fine, Licorice, Sit down next to him, I'll get you papers after. She pointed to the same other boy that she saw in the hall with the red clothes.
"H-Hai." Licorice said. Apparently a bad idea to speak in Japanese. The teacher somehow... flew in front of her; she backed up some and stared very oddly.
"What did you say?" The teacher asked in a very cold tone.
"I- said Hai.. It means yes in Japanese.. Sorry if you don't use that language at all here..." The teacher glared before going back over to the desk.
"Sit" The lady simply said. Licorice stared for a moment and then walked over and hesitantly sat down. She rested her arms on the desk and looked around; not realizing the boy next to her was looking at her slightly.
She continued to look around, ignoring anything that the lady was saying.
"It's just... so.. unclean... and.. gross.." She whispered, apparently too loud, the boy next to her looked over just slightly. He got out some weird remote-control looking object and waved it around her while the teacher's back was turned to them. Licorice wasn't paying attention but eventually she started to notice something with the corner of her eye, her cat ears went straight up and she looked over, little did the boy know.
"Um.. what are you doing?" Licorice whispered with a very confused-like face. He quickly stopped and returned to his normal sitting position.
"I... was just.. observing you... I've been.. doing uh.. Research on animal...human.. thIINGsss." He obviously was coming up with an excuse. Licorice stared at him oddly for a second before turning back.
"Oh, apparently I haven't told you, Licorice, his name, Licorice this is-" Before the teacher could actually say his name, Dib cut her off.
"His name is ZIM! He's an ALIEN IM TELLING YOU!" He jumped up on top of his desk and pointed at him. Licorice just had to be in between the two.
"I am NORMAL!" Zim spazzed out for a second before sitting normally again.
"Um.. o-kayyy.." Licorice placed her arms over her head and covered her ears, cat ears, that is.
"That's it, all of you are getting detention, all three of you."
"W-Wait, by three, who do you mean?" Licorice said looking back up.
"Dib, Zim, and you, Licorice."
"Why me? I didn't do anything!" Licorice yelled a little bit, staring in shock. She hadn't done anything but just sit there.
"You just did there. Now be quiet" The teacher continued to ramble on about stuff no one cared about, and probably didn't listen to.
"No wonder these people are so stupid..." Licorice thought to herself. She laid her head on her hand and fiddled around with a pencil until it was finally over. All the kids ran out of the room on the second, except for those three, of course.
"Now, I'm leaving, but I have cameras in here, and if you leave early, you'll get detention WITH me in here TOMMOROW" The teacher had pointed to moving cameras, and the other two besides Licorice cringed when she said that she'd stay here if they all didn't listen. Licorice just continued to fiddle with a pencil. And once she left, Licorice pulled out a few sheets of paper from the drawer in her desk and began drawing. She wasn't sure if she was allowed to do this, but she didn't care at all quite honestly.
30 minutes went by and Licorice had already thrown 5 drawings away. Suddenly, the sound of water hit the windows. Licorice looked over at the window and saw immense showers of rain, and no break in clouds for what looked like miles. Then, a large roar of thunder came across, almost shaking the building, and not more than a second went by and Licorice reacted, flattening her ears and quickly hiding underneath her desk. Not to mention, apparently Zim reacted too, just not as extreme as Licorice.
"What's the matter, ZIM, can't take a little rain?" Dib mocked him as he stared out the window. Licorice just rolled her eyes, but cringed again when the thunder came again.
"No.. I am happy that it's raining, infact... I can't wait for detention to be over.. IM STILL NORMAL!" He seemed to direct that towards Licorice, she didn't say anything. It actually took them a few minutes to realize she was hiding underneath her desk. They didn't even notice until they were done.. Arguing.. or whatever you would call that.
"Why are you hiding?" Dib asked suspiciously to Licorice. Licorice's ears straightened up and she crawled out from underneath the desk, sitting down slowly.
"I.. um.. well.. I just don't..-" Licorice got cut off, she really didn't like that.
"Don't tell me YOUR an alien too!" Dib scooted his chair farther away from her. Licorice just stared in the most deathening stare.
"Are you kidding me? Not everyone LIKES water. And besides, if you haven't noticed, I'm part-cat. Hence the cat freak thing. Don't ask how, I just am." She turned her head straight and looked up slightly to see the time. 5 minutes left.
They all stayed silent until the last second struck. Licorice got up and was the first out the door. Apparently forgetting about the rain, she opened the doors quickly to walk out, and a large roar of thunder came over again. She squealed and slammed the doors shut, hiding up against the wall next to the doors. They both stared oddly at Licorice, more-so Dib, as he walked out of the doors, kind of like showing off the fact that he doesn't care about it raining or something.
"Come on you two, it's not that bad." He mocked both Zim and Licorice. Licorice stood up and faced him.
"Look, I don't know what you think your accomplishing here, but I, maybe just me, but I am definitely not going to hear from you all the mocking and stuff you're doing" Licorice stomped out of the doors, and took two rolled up umbrellas Dib had in his backpack, and pushed him down the stairs. She opened one up for her, and threw one inside the doors, apparently for Zim. She stomped off, walking through the puddles no problem; she had high boots on so it didn't bother her at all.
Zim watched as she walked off, also laughing at Dib at the same time. He opened the umbrella and hesitantly walked out, realizing that it was preventing him from getting wet, he walked right over Dib, laughing, and walking off.
As he walked back to his.. house, if it's called such, he spoke to himself, something that's pretty common for him.
"I wonder if that... HUMAN is really from here.. she's much more different then what's on this FILTHY planet."
He walked into the doors of his so-called house, throwing the umbrella into the street. He went down in some.. Tubular elevator down to a very machine-intelligent looking area. He sat down on a chair infront of a very, very advanced looking.. computer-like thing.
"GIR!"
"Yes, master?" A robot quickly came up with a very unintelligent lo on his face, seeming not to pay attention to Zim much.
"We have a new mission, Gir."
"TACOSS!" The robot ran around the room for a few seconds before running into a huge metal wire.
"STOP FOOLING AROUND GIR. We have to capture a HUMAN... I think.. one named, Licorice."
Okay.. so um.. That's chapter 1. I had writers block before I even started this chapter, I'm sorry if it bored you at all, I promise the next chapter will be better, and just so you know, Licorice may come off at first as a mary-sue, I'm not sure, I tried to make it not like that. But she's not, if I said all the reasons why it'd give off the secret of the next chapters to come. I have a whole plot in my head, it's just trying to make it into words, and still make it interesting. If you have any ideas, please, tell me! But please, if you don't like it, or didn't like it, DONT REVIEW! I'm asking this politely as possible because my past stories got many bad reviews, I understand constructive critism, and I do need it, but saying in the reviews I suck, my writing sucks, and my oc is a mary-sue, that isnt helping me. I warned you about anime at the beginning aswell, don't like it? Don't read it. Don't like ocs? Don't read it. For all of you who did like it and help me by reviewing to get it more popular so I can get more ideas, THANK YOU! Or, Arigato! [Thank you in Japanese] ^^
Oh and one more thing, or two, actually. I try to keep them in character as much as possible, but sometimes I can get a little off, again, sorry. And secondly, just so you know, when I use all capitals, or capitals for a certain word, it's like.. There yelling it. Because I know Zim yells.. a lot.. I guess.. So I try to keep that, and in words it's a little hard, so just thought I'd mention that. ^^
Chapter 2 will be coming soon, Bye! ^w^
