Chapter two: Changing of Friendships (of doom)
Aye, it's me again! Chapter two is in pursuit, Lilo and Stitch cast (sadly no crew) will probably show up next chapter or so. Yay! Sorry it's been so long if anyone really missed it, I've had writers block major. Anyway, I still don't own Invader Zim, Jhonen Vasquez still owns it. Nick is the producers. I also don't own Lilo and Stitch, all characters and trademarks belong to Disney. Evil capitalist scum! Anyway, enjoy!
And now a thanks to my reviewers! This is a little bribe to keep you reviewing ;) : dekujama, thanks for the review! Yea sorry about the changing of the speaking thing, I tried to have that different to show it was a flashback, but I guess it didn't work. Ah well no harm in experimenting huh? Ashsema! Glad you liked it, I thought it was complete crap so thanks so much! Yes I agree, friendships are fickle like that aren't they? And I pictured Red as being VERY stubborn and tried to be "macho" anyway he could. And also having an ego as tall as he was! So naturally he felt threatened by Purple's growth spurt and became jealous. Poor Red. Cinn, Zel, and Zir, thank's for the reviews my friends! I will probably be asking for help before long Zir, so thanks for the offer!
A few month's later, and no conversation from the two ex-bestest best friends, the alarms sounded once again as Zim killed, yet another Tallest. Red and Purple looked at each other nervously wondering what were going to happen to them. There was an announcement made by Vas calling Red and Purple to the control room. Red and Purple got up quickly and ran to the main control room looking up at Vas with anticipation. He gazed down at them and frowned.
"Hello boys, as I'm sure you've herd, Zim killed Tallest Spork, a tragic death. Zim got into the zoo and let all the animals loose, a giant Trog got loose and trampled Spork twitched as he remembered anyway, he said that if anything should happen, he wants you two to be Tallest. He said you two make a great team and are perfect for Irk."
Purple gave Red a little 'I told you so' look, but Red looked outraged.
"Forgive me my second, but did you say BOTH of us are to be Tallest?"
Vas nodded and thus the reign of the Tallest Red and Purple began. They were given one more day of being 'normal' Irkens then a full day of ceremonies, including the very painful removing of three fingers one to prove to Irk that the planet could be ruled with only two fingers, showing superiority of the Tallest, and the rest of the Irken race. This was tradition; it has been around since before Muyuki's legion.
For the last day of being normal, it was miserable for Purple. Red still wasn't talking to him, and giving him more of a cold shoulder then ever before. Purple has received the silent treatment since the day the world found out Purple was the same height as Red. Oh he'd do anything to change it, anything. But the truth was, he couldn't. Sighing, Purple walked about the ship all by his lonesome self-pretending to look happy because everyone was congratulating him. A few people who attended the academy and were close to Red (though not as close as he used to be) glared at him and gave him the cold shoulder. Finally he found an empty lounge and sat down on a round chair, much like the one's Dr. Evil uses, and stared out into space looking depressed.
Red didn't care that Purple was missing for three hours. He didn't care that Purple wasn't at dinner, or that he was at the room when he went to bed. Why should he care? That jerk betrayed him after all. He specifically told him he didn't want to rule together, and then he goes off and grows a few feet. It's impossible, hmpf, some "growth-spurt". Irkens just don't grow two feet within a week! But maybe he genetically altered his height? Red grinned evilly at this intriguing idea. If he can investigate into this and prove he's rightfully Tallest, he can rule Irk by himself, and Purple would be sent to their prison planet; Vort! Red quickly ran into the selected research lab that had all the secret files. No one dared to stop a soon-to-be-Tallest. He grinned and looked up at the main computer.
"Computer, list all of Purple's last medical records within the past year."
A beep of confirmation could be heard and then all of Purple's medical records showed up. Red searched for hours and scowls, as he found no evidence, which could only mean one thing, Purple's height was legal. This frustrated Red very much and sat down in frustration not knowing what to do, he guessed there was nothing to do but to get a well deserved nights rest.
The next day the both soon-to-be-Tallest woke up feeling upset. Purple was still hurt that Red was angry at him, and Red was still angry at him for trying to take away his lone glory. On top of that, Red was tired, and no one wanted to be around him when he was tired, that is, if you wanted to live. The two Irkens were rushed up to the royal changing rooms of doom, where they were to be gowned for the first time in the traditional Tallest robes. Red's eyes narrowed as his and Purple's eyes meet, Purple quickly looked away.
"Red, I'm...I'm sorry, I didn't mean to grow..."
Red scoffed. "Pft, yea right. Just give it a rest ok Pur?"
Purple sighs and nods. Red could be so thick headed sometimes, well, most of the time. After what seemed like hours the two emerged from the changing rooms and scowled at their new uniform. Red very much preferred the Irken invader uniform, and Purple missed his casual cloth's of being a scholar. And now, the ceremony was about to begin.
Crowds of Irkens that traveled across many galaxies just to witness the Ceremony, were gathered around the great hall, the room where the Great Assigning was held many years into the future. As soon as the room was packed as it could be, an announcer's voice came over the PA system.
"Ladies in gentlemen, wiggle your antennas in salute for the ceremony is about to begin! Afterwards spend all your monies on useless but cool STUFF of Red and Purple!"
The crowd roared with cheers as Vas came on stage. He gave the traditional introduction of how Spork died, gave a moment's silence for respect of Spork, and then introduced Red and Purple. After a long list of all their accomplishments, a platform came down with a waving Red and Purple standing on it. The crowd's cheers grew louder, nearly deafening the two tall Irkens. Purple seemed like he was trying to hide his joy, while Red still looked pissed off, and made no attempt on trying to hide his anger. The official ceremony began as soon as the platform landed, and Vas continued his speech. Purple had a glazed look of boredom, while Red pulled out a hand-held game and started playing, ignoring looks of disapproval from his former superiors, and soon to be advisors. The crowd however, didn't mind the two tall one's lack of respect due to their utter boredom. At long last, Vas's two-hour speech and introduction was over. Now the really hard ceremony was about to begin, the removal of their three fingers. It was a ceremony that would change their friendship forever...
--- Well that's it! Sorry it's so short, I just had to get it out and try and defeat writers block! Mmm yep, see you all soon I hope! Thanks again to all my reviewers!
