This is a collab that brave kid and I worked on a little while ago(He had the initial idea and I wrote the script) which is the first in a series he and I will be working together on in the future. Please enjoy!(BTW brave kid, thank you very much for this story suggestion. I had a lot of fun working on this story with you, and I very much appreciate it. I look forward to writing future stories with you.) :)
In a galaxy far away there sits a planet called the Cat Nebula, which is inhabited by a peaceful group of aliens who very much resemble hairless cats. One such, whom our story concerns, is an interplanetary reporter by the name of Zoran. Zoran had enjoyed his job, but lately there had been a steady decrease in newsworthy events. As he sits at his desk, typing away at an article, Zoran breathes deeply and lets out a hearty sigh. Nothing interesting seems to happen around here anymore. he thinks. Oh, to be able to visit a new planet!
Just then, his boss calls over the P.A. system, "Oh, Zoran, I'd like to see you in my office, please." Zoran gives a small gulp, anticipating bad news, but reluctantly makes his way to the boss' room. Upon entering the room, the boss addresses him, "Zoran, I have a very important task for you."
"Yes, sir?" he replies curiously.
"Well, it's come to my attention that our paper is in desperate need of new material. As such, I'm assigning you a reporting job on the distant planet of Krygorr-5."
Zoran's eyes light up. Oh, how long he had waited for an opportunity like this! "Oh, thank you so very much, sir!" he replies excitedly. "This sounds so very intriguing!'
"I'll need for you to be ready by noon." the boss replies.
"Certainly, sir. I shall be ready soon." Zoran replies.
After packing his suitcases and bidding his family a kind goodbye, Zoran hops into his spaceship and begins his journey. Little did he know, unfortunately, that things weren't to remain smooth sailing for long, because hiding around a nearby corner was Eeks, an evil hamster alien from another planet. Upon hearing the news, he begins to schemingly rub his paws together. "So, Zowan's been offered a reporting job on Kwygorr-5, eh? How vewwy intewesting!"
Eeks was a rival reporter who had often resorted to dirty tricks to get his stories. He and his kind hated the cat people and would do anything they could to get the better of them. The evil hamster hops into his own spaceship and takes off after Zoran's retreating vehicle. "That Zowan's gonna be in for quite a supwise!" He punctuates his sentence with a nasty laugh.
