1 I'm Small But I'm Big

1.1.1 Chapter Two

Nachos Are Good



Years have gone by so fast, and so has training. Teenie was small, but she tried hard to accomplish everything that was required for an Irken to become an Invader. Since Teenie was so small, she's been held back in training courses over and over because of her size, so her training is taking a lot longer than usual. A lot of the Irkens in training make fun of her small stature.

"Could you get any shorter, Teenie Weenie?" mocked an Irken also in training, by the name of Scoot.

"Stop calling me by that ridiculous name! It's Teenie, not Teenie Weenie!" Teenie tried to smack him, but Scoot was a lot taller than her.

"How many times have you been held back? One hundred? Two hundred? And you're still on the middle courses?" Scoot laughed at Teenie; Teenie sighed.

"Well, at least I've only been held back because of my size, and not my intelligence, unlike you!" Teenie glared at Scoot as he growled.

"Yeah, well, those tests are hard!" Scoot snorted.

"Easy as pie, Scoot. I've known this stuff by heart since the first courses I took! I know every maneuver, every rule, and every situation! But my feet cannot reach the pedals, and my arms can barely reach the levers in certain aircrafts of the Invaders." Teenie sighed.

"Ha! That is so pathetic! I bet the Tallest will banish you soon!" Scoot walked around Teenie.

"You're right. This is my 170th year here! I've barely grown much at all since a baby. Where will they send me?!" Teenie panicked.

"Somewhere small, most likely," Scoot laughed once more, "See ya around, Teenie Weenie! Today I move to the last few courses, and I'll be finished!"

Scoot ran off laughing leaving Teenie alone sitting on a rock.

"HEY TEENIE!" screamed some voices.

"What? Oh no! Not you guys again!" Teenie shrieked and ran.

It was the younger Irkens with things similar to hockey sticks to us humans, ready to use Teenie as their "puck."

"I will not be your ball again! I will not! Go away!" Teenie screamed as she ran.

She was small, but very fast and ran a lot faster than them. Soon she was caught in a dead end, and one of the little Irkens smacked Teenie with the stick causing her to fly through the air like a baseball.

The Tallest were in their little office type thing. Red was reading something, and Purple was sucking on a drink.

"Purple, you know what year it is, don't you?" Red asked Purple, lifting his eyes off of his reading.

"Year of the Tiger?" Purple said looking over at Red.

"Tiger? What are you talking about?" Red said raising an eyebrow.

"I…. Don't… know…" Purple stared blankly, blinked, and took a sip of his drink.

"… well, anyway, it's Teenie's 170th year here on Irk, and well, she's barely grown much at all…" Red tried explaining.

"Oh, you still want to banish her? But she's one of the smartest Irkens we have! She would be a genius to use in ID1, and ID1 isn't for many years now! Surely…" Purple said, trying to convince Red.

"I know, but she is small, and she's… weird. I'm going to call for her now… she shall be banished today," said Red ready to push a button, but before he could something smashed through the window smacking Purple in the head.

"Aagghh!! Get it off me! Get it off me!" Purple stood up waving his arms franticly like a maniac on fire.

"It's just Teenie. The little Irkens must've used her has a ball again," Purple sighed and shook his head.

"Oh," Purple took her off his face," Why does she always have to hit me?!"

"Because you're Purple, of course," Red took Teenie into his hands and placed her on a table type thing and sat down.

"Well, that's a stupid reason," Purple mumbled sitting down,"You're red…"

"Teenie, we're glad you could drop in—" Red started to say.

"Those brainless little Irkens used me as their ball again!" Teenie said, looking angry.

"We know, we know. Teenie… there is something important we must say. Purple?" Red looked over at Purple.

"Well… Teenie, it's your 170th year here, and you haven't grown much at all…" Purple started saying.

"And, well, we're sorry but we have to banish you. We were hoping you would have a growth spurt, but you never did," Red finished.

"We're sorry…but, uh… um… here's some nachos!" Purple said handing a box of nachos to Teenie.

"It was nice to have you, really!" Red smiled.

"That's… it? That's it?! You're just going to banish me because I'm small?!" Teenie yelled steaming.

"You were lucky we didn't destroy you when you were broken out of your tube! If it wasn't for Purple whom thought you were cute, you wouldn't be alive! Now we're just letting you off on banishment!" Purple leaned over Teenie and growled at her.

"We're sorry, Teenie, but—"

"You're an embarrassment to our race. Wherever you land, could you not tell them you're Irken? We couldn't let other planets know that sometimes a really small Irken is born by miscalculations… they may try to conquer us! Welp, time for you to go!" Red explained.

Red pushed a button as two other Irkens dragged Teenie off. Purple sighed and sucked on his straw. Red yawned and sat down again, then looked at Purple.

"I wanted those nachos…" Red snorted.
