The party was going along smoothly. Gaz saw the house's robot eye dart along the walls, scanning everyone that entered. They seemed to be having fun; Skoodge actually made a good DJ. GIR walked around emitting multi-coloured lights from his eyes and snacks from his head. Gaz stood off in the corner with a stopwatch.
"Time's up," she said, knocking on the closet door. "Who's next?" she yelled, and another guy came to replace the last one. Zita slipped her a five to keep going and closed the door behind her.
"SKOODGE!" Gaz bellowed. "EVANESCENCE!" she said, requesting a song change. Some old parts of her were still there, if just buried a little deep. Skoodge motioned for her to come to him. She rolled her eyes and walked over.
"Got a title in mind?" he asked. "I'll be happy to put you in a special queue…" he said, shaking a jar with a few coins and dollar bills on the bottom.
"My party; my songs. Going Under," she said, pointing to a song on his display. She walked back over, enjoying the new song. Kids rushed to the stand, throwing money into the jar, begging for a song change. She knocked on the closet again. "Time's up, let someone else in, Zita,"
"You heard her; beat it!" said a girl's voice from in the closet.
"Really, Zita? A girl? You really will make out with anyone, won't you?" Gaz said, opening the door. She saw Zita sitting there with a stupid look on her face. She walked out, stumbling, and made her way to the dance floor.
"Hey, Gaz! You want your five minutes?" said the girl remaining inside.
"Tak, you know most girls don't kiss other girls, right?" Gaz said.
"Really? I don't see why, but then again, I can barely tell the difference between guys and girls on this planet anyways…" she said, standing. Gaz cringed when her song was over and 'I Kissed a Girl' came on. Apparently Skoodge had a special queue for people who'll show her breasts.
"What are you doing here, Tak? I don't remember inviting you," she said, although Zita invited most of the people here. Well, everyone here except herself.
"I saw bright lights and instinct took over. Oh, the punch could use a little more sugar," she said.
"Try Skoodge's" Gaz responded, crossing her arms. For some reason, Zita and Gretchen were the only girls she could even begin to tolerate, but Tak was extremely far from tolerable.
"So, I heard Zim and Dib got in a gunfight. How'd that end?" she said, but she already knew the answer to that. She probably had the house or GIR tell her.
"Terribly, but you knew that already, didn't you? Look, I don't want another fight," Gaz said, when someone stepped behind her.
"Yeah, that'd be two in three chapters! Kell needs a break," he said, but when Gaz turned he was gone.
"That hell was that? Anyways… I don't want to fight. Just go enjoy the party; I don't really care at this point," Gaz said, stepping out of the doorway. Tak stepped forward, not leaving the closet.
"Come on… you know you want to try at least once," Tak said, and Gaz nearly vomited.
"Hell no! You have five seconds to get out of my sight before I beat you into a pulp!"
"Come on, Gaz! Fan service…" said the voice again. She turned and found no one talking to her again. Was she going crazy?
"No? Oh well. My offer will always stand," she said, placing her hand on Gaz's chest. Gaz slapped her on the back of the head as she passed.
"The hell was that all about?" asked someone behind her. She found someone there, finally, and it was Skoodge.
"Nothing; Tak being a slut. I thought you were doing the music?" Gaz asked.
"I got a few minutes. I made a killing off the Evanescence song. Wanna play another? I might be pushing it, but I think I can make a hundred bucks off your music tastes!" Skoodge said, and Gaz had to laugh at that. "So, may I guess why Zita paid twenty bucks for Katy Perry?"
"Tak,"
"Aww, I wanted to guess!" Skoodge said. "Anyways, music. Gotta go!" he said, running back to the stand. Although, with his short legs, it looked more like waddling. Soon a couple wanted in the closet, and Gaz was back with timer in hand.
A door burst open, flying across the room. Gaz turned to see a figure coming out of the shadows of the base beneath. It stepped forwards, and the music stopped and people turned to look at it. A large crowd formed around it, and Gaz ran to see who it was. The figure stood there in the middle of a clearing of people and Skoodge came to stand beside Gaz. A rumbling came from outside, and a few went to go see it instead of the figure that came from below.
"IT'S A SPACESHIP! DIB WAS RIGHT!" one of the kids yelled, and the crowd panicked. Gaz and Skoodge ran to go see who it was, and Skoodge gasped. He knew who it was, but Gaz had never seen the ship. She had never seen a ship so massive. It landed, crushing homes under its massive weight. It was at least five blocks wide and stretched on for what seemed like miles. It seemed unbalanced on the streets, like it could topple at any moments, but a generous amount of landing gear kept it in place. A large ramp descended from it, and smoke poured out of it. Lasers spread across the remaining buildings, not burning or destroying anything. Two figures came out of it, and the figure from below dashed out the front door to meet them. The figures from above and the one from below met, and it looked like harsh words were said. The figure from below came back, raising a finger as it pointed at the large crowd.
"THIS PARTY IS OVER!" Zim yelled. "GET THE HELL OUT OF MY HOUSE!"
So, kinda clear who the new guys are. Sorry its mostly dialogue, but you know. And yes, I actually wrote myself into the story. I know, I know, kind of a cheap shot, but that's how I roll. I kinda did it to be humourous and to prevent another fight, because I didn't want to do another one just yet. And yes, I'm a guy, in case you couldn't tell from my writing style. Don't expect me to make another appearance in the story, unless upon request.
So, no one died. I didn't lie, someone will die and soon. It's not the figures from above, they weren't introduced when I said someone would die.
Also, even though I think IZ is set some time in the future, I mentioned Evanescence and Katy Perry. Why? 'Cause I don't know what songs will be released in the future! Also, I like Evanescence and Perry's song fit the moment, so it worked perfectly. If it makes you feel better, you can re-read it with those songs in mind/on your iPod/YouTube. It's what I did when writing it :E
