Chapter 28 **I do not own anything of Nirvana, except a very sexy picture
of Kurt in my planner ^_^**
The Halloween Dance was bigger than anyone expected. It was held in the skool cafeteria, and with all the tables and random stalls gone, it was huge! The whole room was covered in black paper, with orange streamers and silver party glitter all over the floor. Teenagers were everywhere----some dancing, some sitting down in the back, some making out and some causing fights. Everyone was in some type of costume, though.
Dib and Raye arrived, arm in arm. Dib was dressed up to be a homicidal maniac(A/N: Haha, can you guess which one?), and Raye was an angel. In her long, silky sleeveless pearl dress she looked like a doll, and her hair fell over bare shoulders loosely. She looked down and sighed. Dib smiled and placed his hand under her chin, causing her to look up at him.
"Don't worry, you look great! If it means anything, you look like a goddess to me." She cracked a small you're-the-sweetest-guy-in-the- world smile, and laughed. "Ok, well then, let's go!" They walked into the party hand in hand, as a band walked onto the stage.
It was a small, all-women band made up of three. The drummer was a slightly pale lady with straight, long black hair. The bass player was a short, blonde-haired chick with green/blue eyes, and the lead singer/guitar player was a tall woman with short raven hair and sincere almond eyes. She was Hispanic, and had glasses that somewhat resembled Dib's. All the women were in their early 20's, and were dressed up as Tokyo Club Girls.
After setting up, the lead picked up the microphone and cleared her throat. Dib stared at her intensly, trying to think where he's seen them before. Moshers and techno geeks cheered as she began to speak.
"First off, I'd like to wish everyone a Happy Halloween! It's my favorite time of the year, and not just for the candy mind you! I love doing shows in costume, and for all you garage-bands, don't worry you'll get to experiance what I'm talking about here soon 'cuz I know you'll make it!"
Dib knew someone in a "garage-band." His name was Mike, who was a senior and owned a metal band. He didn't talk to Dib that much, but often gave him complements on his trench coat or something. Raye looked over at Dib and noticed he was staring at the band. Passive-agressivly, she pulled him away to the punch line.
"C'mon, I'm thristy!" she said with a hint of jealousy. He stared at her with a slight smirk in his face. "Don't be jealous, it's just, well, I've seen her before. I just cant'........." "Place her?" Raye finished for him, and he nodded. "I've seen her, but not in a band." Raye shrugged her shoulders and as he was trying to get some punch, she dragged him away as quickly as they came to the dance floor.
-------------------
Zim and Kia walked in the building, and he heard the band play their own rendition of Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit." They were an odd couple---Since Kia explained the "truth" about Halloween (A/N: Remember the Halloween Spectacular of Spooky Doom?) he decided to come as his Irken self. Kia, on the other hand, was dressed like Alice in Wonderland in a blue-and white checkered dress with a white apron around her.
Walking into a dark corner where no one was, Zim grabbed his arm in pain. "STUPID earth-children and their GROSS, DISCUSTING candy-bags of DOOM!" Kia shook her head slowly and sighed. "Ok, so what's our plan?" He kissed his wound, and stared at her with his ruby eyes. "Our plan, yes. You distract the Dib-stink, and I try to trigger Raye's activation chip." He didn't really want to turn it on, because once the machine inside was activated, she wouldn't be herself anylonger. She would be, he didn't want to think of it at that moment.
As the two walked inside the dance, the lead singer stopped singing and grabbed the microphone once more.
"Allright, now here's the newest single from our now-on-sale album, Fire Fire!" At first, the rythm was soft and slow, the bass keeping a steady beat while the drums tapped on the cymbles ever so lightly. Then, when the guitar came in, everything blew out into a hard rock/techno like melody getting constantly faster and harder.
There's something going on, Something I can't explain I know it deep in my heart but it's something I can't name.
In the middle of the first verse, she caught her eye on Zim slinking about and stared at him, never letting her eye off of that green body.
Are you following me again? Huh?
Dib walked over to the punch line again by himself to grab a drink, when he saw Kia walk over with a gleam in her eyes. He took a deep breath when she leaned over the bowl to scoop her a drink. "Why, hello again Dib! So how've you been?"
While Kia was trying to have a long conversation with Dib about nothing, Zim looked for Raye. He pushed people out of the way, and finally saw her sitting in the back, twiddling her thumbs. With a sad sigh, he quickly put on a fake smirk and walked up to her.
Are you following me again? Ok?
She heard someone approach her, and thinking it was Dib, she looked up only to see Zim standing there with some punch he stole from some random kid out to her.
Are you following me again? You're as sweet as a sin.
"Hello Raye." Her eyes widened as she flashes of the night before played through her mind like a pervertive movie. "My god! You.......you took advantage of me!" He laughed evily. "It takes two to tango, dear. I see you're not wearing the earrings I gave you, what a shame, they look so great on you." He went to touch her face, but she slapped his claws away.
"Get away from me." Deep down in his squiddly-spooch, he felt hurt by that comment, but outside his smirk just grew wider. "But I thought you and the Dib-beast were having problems? Isn't that why you came to me? Because you wanted to know the truth about your past? Because you wanted me?" Suddenly, she couldn't move or speak. All she could do was look into his deep ruby eyes.
My love for you is as hot as fire You're all I want, My one desire. I want your fire, Those sweet lips are a flame burning my heart, everytime they call out my name
"Raye........."Then his eyes changed. Even through the ominous front he put up, she could see the saddness in his eyes. His eyes that matched her own.
----------------------
After being in Kia's absorbed conversation, something didn't feel right to Dib. A part of him was growing numb, and he broke his eye contact with her. "Look, I need to get back to Raye, she's waiting for me." For just a split second her face boiled up in a deep hatred, but no one noticed since she immediatly snapped back into her happy-go-lucky mood. As Dib turned around to go check on Raye, she grabbed his hand quickly and turned him around to the dance floor.
"Dance with me!" she cried in a high-pitched voice as she dragged him to the middle of the group. And as much as he wanted to get to Raye, as much as his side felt numb, some invisible force coming from Kia pulled him to her and never let his eyes off of hers.
---------------------
As she was singing, the guitar player watched the short green kid hypnotically, never taking her eyes off him. Something was wrong, and she knew it. All three of them did. She could feel the cold metal of her black gun strapped to her leg by her garter, underneath her short, Japanese Skool-Girl outfit grow warm with anxiety as the song was coming to a close.
--------------------
"Raye, there's something I want to tell you," he hissed into her ear.
Come to me, I want you to see.
Paralyzed, she watched him take a small, key-like device from his pack. Suddenly, for no reason at all, she got deathly scared as he came closer with it.
Come to me, I want us to be.
"Don't be afraid. You can't run away from who you are forever, but before I turn you on, there's something you need to know." He stroked her cheek lovingly, and leaned in to kiss her as she watched with horror.
Come to me, Break it off, Put the past behind me, All I want is for you to touch me, so soft.
He was so close to her now, she could smell his breath, which was kinda like what new money smelled like. (A/N: Have you ever smelled a brand new dollar? I love the scent! Or maybe I'm just weird? O_o)
My love for you is as hot as fire You're all I want, My one desire. I want your fire, Those sweet lips are a flame burning my heart, everytime they call out my name
"Raye, I love you." His hand moved from her face down to her tattoo, and a sharp blade came out from the tip of the key. A single, silver tear ran down his cheek as he stabbed the key straight into her heart.
-------------------------
Uh-Huh....
Suddenly, Dib's legs gave out as he fell to the floor. A couple people stopped dancing and asked if he was alright. He looked up to see Kia looming over him, and then as he stared into her dark eyes, he felt as if something in his heart just died.
Uh-huh Fire Fire
She smirked as he looked through the crowd to see Zim standing over Raye, and something inside quivered with terror.
Uh-huh Fire Fire
He tried to get up and run to her, but by the time he got there, it was too late.
--------------------
Raye's eyes went completely blank. He turned the blade upwards, then pulled it out completely. Standing back, he watched her. Every single living thing within her body died. As her body turned off, memories started playing in her mind like a movie.
Surprisingly, the first thing that came to mind was Dib.
The day she walked into the classroom. The uneasy stares of the kids. Dib's silent smile. The note he passed to her. His blushing face when he met her on the swing. Laughing with him after the movie. Sitting on the rooftop staring at the stars. Kissing him for the first time. The sweet taste of his mouth. When he comforted her from Bob's wrath. When he promised her. When he took her to Punkin' Dougnuts. How he held her that night. The rose he gave her. When he made love to her for the first time. How his nervous body moved ontop of hers. When he told her he felt home. When he walked her back to her house and confided in him about her past. The dream. When he saved her again from Bob. When she was in the hospital. The card he gave her with the ghost drawing. How he stayed by her side loyally the whole three days. When he gave her the ring she was wearing. How she yelled at him after the fight, and how they made up later. His dreamy, Pisces eyes. Those beautiful lips. God, that wonderful mind. The last thing she saw was Zim. Zim standing there with his intense ruby eyes.
Uh-huh Liar Liar
As her vision faded and as her body shut down, as she retreated to the back of her mind, a single tear rolled down her cheek slowly, staining Zim's shoulder as he pulled away from her dead body.
-----------------------
Zim did what had to be done. Now, he just stood back and watched the Irken's perfect killing machine come alive. Raye was gone---- not dead, but sleeping, so to speak. Her long raven hair turned into short, silver strands of artifical metal. Out of her back, 8 mechanical legs emerged (Kinda like Zim's spider legs) and wrapped around her body in a cacoon of steel and bolts.
Some people started screaming when they saw what happened and others cheered, thinking it was some cool special effect. Dib violently grabbed Zim by the shirt and shook him hard. "WHAT THE HELL HAVE YOU DONE!?! WHAT'S HAPPENING TO RAYE!?! DAMN YOU ZIM! DAMN YOU!" he screamed over and over as a grinding sound came from inside the metal cover.
----------------
The three girls threw their equipment down, and stared at eachother. Nodding, they jumped off the stage prepared for what was happening next.
-----------------
Suddenly, the legs popped straight out of the cold grasp like eight giant needles poking out of her side. Zim was right-----the Raye they knew was gone------this was a machine. A woman stood there with nothing on but a body suit made out of pure metal and bolts, with the Tallests symbol painted in a deep black ontop of her chest. Her boots were made of the same material, only the platform heels were extremely tall and four thick spikes jolted out of them ominously. Her skin was as white as milk, and her eyes were not that of a humans. They were filled in completely blood-red, and all emotion from them was blanked out.
----------------------
Dib stood there with mouth agape, and for some reason he could think of nothing else but his promise.
"Raye...no matter what anyone says, I love you more than anything in this world and nothing will stand inbetween me from you."
He couldn't move------he was paralyzed in her cold stare. Zim had ran off somewhere, but he didn't care about that right then. The machine "Raye" slowly put out her right arm infront of her, and a LARGE sword-like blade magically appeared in her hand. Behind his glasses, he started to cry. As the tears ran down his cheeks in steady streams, he thought of her childlike face and the night before.
"Just, don't be mad at me anymore, I can't stand it............"
Forcing himself to speak, he yelled out to her in a cracked, determine voice as she raised the sword above her head.
"Don't give up Raye! I know you're in there, I can feel it! Wake up Raye! I love you! No matter what anyone says, I love you more than anything in this world and nothing will stand inbetween me from you! I'll come for you, I promise!"
He closed his eyes, preparing for the worst as she started lowering the sword down towards him. When he thought he was going to feel the cold steel of her sword, it never came. Infact, he heard a single gunshot and a "TING" of it digging through the metal to the skin underneath.
He opened them again and looked behind him to see a the lead singer. She was wearing a long, flowing black trench coat and held a smooth, glistening black gun out infront of her. Smoke came from the end, where a fresh bullet was shot into Raye's arm, causing the sword to evaporate. He could see her dark almond eyes beneath her transparent glasses and looked down at her knee-high boots. They had 3" heels and tied up, but had three big clamps going over the front. Underneath her coat, she wore a black and white striped shirt with a black, pleated skirt. A silver necklace of the Eye of Horus hung loosely from her neck.
She lowered her gun, and grabbed Dib, pulling him back. Suddenly, the roof over the cafeteria was torn open like the lid of a sardine can. A HUGE version of a Voot cruiser stood silent in the star-lit sky, and radiated a blue light ontop of Raye. It started to lift her off the ground, and he ran up and grabbed her hand. He flinched at her touch, it was as cold as dry ice. They lifted farther and farther up into the air and he couldn't stop staring into her eyes. Those eyes. Those dead eyes.
Suddenly, the myserious woman grabbed Dib tightly and pulled him back down to the cold ground. As his hand pulled away from hers, he felt something appear in his grasp. Falling on the woman, he stared straight up at the machine as it was starting to disappear in the the ship. He could've swore he saw a single tear drop from one of those zombie eyes, but it could've been a mind trick as well.
"Raye! I love you!" He yelled, as she disappeared completely, leaving him alone in the dark room. Everyone was quiet. Nothing moved. He opened his hand and saw the ring he gave her in his palm, the ruby sparkling as if it was alive. Closing his eyes and through his tears, he promised on that love that he would get her back.
"Umm, excuse me? Could you, ummm, maybe get off of by stomach? I can hardly breath......." a small voice squeaked underneath him, and he gasped, jumping off the woman beneath him. She coughed a bit as he helped her up. Suddenly, everyone started cheering.
"That rocked!" some random kid screamed, and another yelled "Those was the best special effects ever!" Even Christie who was leaning on her crutches screeched "That was the best party ever!" The woman laughed. "My partners are making everyone think it was a show, so don't worry about that." Looking up at her, she wiped the tears from his stained face gently. That's when he knew where he saw her from. "My name's Lan, and I'm on your side," she said gently to him. He sighed and looked up at the stars. The ship was gone with Raye, leaving him with nothing but hate and determination in his broken down heart.........
----------------------------
A/n: OMFG THAT WAS LONG! 10 FUCKING PAGES! Wow, I think that was the longest chapter I've wrote so far. Well, the story's finally getting along now, and the plot thickens. **cries** POOR Dib! I hated to do that to Raye, but it had to happen. I feel kinda like Zim, not wanting to, but having to cuz it's my job. Hmm, yea well I can't say what's going to happen so HA! Squiggle in anticipation! Sorry for any typos, I know there's prolly alot. Also, I can't tell you who Lan and her 2 band mates are yet, but you'll find out in the next chapter, which is going to be SHORTER than this one, okies? I'll let you go wail in despair now, as I am. Bai! ~*~HappyNoodleGurl~*~
The Halloween Dance was bigger than anyone expected. It was held in the skool cafeteria, and with all the tables and random stalls gone, it was huge! The whole room was covered in black paper, with orange streamers and silver party glitter all over the floor. Teenagers were everywhere----some dancing, some sitting down in the back, some making out and some causing fights. Everyone was in some type of costume, though.
Dib and Raye arrived, arm in arm. Dib was dressed up to be a homicidal maniac(A/N: Haha, can you guess which one?), and Raye was an angel. In her long, silky sleeveless pearl dress she looked like a doll, and her hair fell over bare shoulders loosely. She looked down and sighed. Dib smiled and placed his hand under her chin, causing her to look up at him.
"Don't worry, you look great! If it means anything, you look like a goddess to me." She cracked a small you're-the-sweetest-guy-in-the- world smile, and laughed. "Ok, well then, let's go!" They walked into the party hand in hand, as a band walked onto the stage.

Dib knew someone in a "garage-band." His name was Mike, who was a senior and owned a metal band. He didn't talk to Dib that much, but often gave him complements on his trench coat or something. Raye looked over at Dib and noticed he was staring at the band. Passive-agressivly, she pulled him away to the punch line.
"C'mon, I'm thristy!" she said with a hint of jealousy. He stared at her with a slight smirk in his face. "Don't be jealous, it's just, well, I've seen her before. I just cant'........." "Place her?"

Zim and Kia walked in the building, and he heard the band play their own rendition of Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit."

Kia, on the other hand, was dressed like Alice in Wonderland in a blue-and white checkered dress with a white apron around her.
Walking into a dark corner where no one was, Zim grabbed his arm in pain. "STUPID earth-children and their GROSS, DISCUSTING candy-bags of DOOM!" Kia shook her head slowly and sighed. "Ok, so what's our plan?" He kissed his wound, and stared at her with his ruby eyes. "Our plan, yes. You distract the Dib-stink, and I try to trigger Raye's activation chip."

He closed his eyes, preparing for the worst as she started lowering the sword down towards him. When he thought he was going to feel the cold steel of her sword, it never came. Infact, he heard a single gunshot and a "TING" of it digging through the metal to the skin underneath.

He opened his hand and saw the ring he gave her in his palm, the ruby sparkling as if it was alive. Closing his eyes and through his tears, he promised on that love that he would get her back.
"Umm, excuse me? Could you, ummm, maybe get off of by stomach? I can hardly breath......." a small voice squeaked underneath him, and he gasped, jumping off the woman beneath him. She coughed a bit as he helped her up. Suddenly, everyone started cheering.
"That rocked!" some random kid screamed, and another yelled "Those was the best special effects ever!" Even Christie who was leaning on her crutches screeched "That was the best party ever!" The woman laughed. "My partners are making everyone think it was a show, so don't worry about that." Looking up at her, she wiped the tears from his stained face gently. That's when he knew where he saw her from. "My name's Lan, and I'm on your side," she said gently to him. He sighed and looked up at the stars. The ship was gone with Raye, leaving him with nothing but hate and determination in his broken down heart.........

A/n: OMFG THAT WAS LONG! 10 FUCKING PAGES! Wow, I think that was the longest chapter I've wrote so far. Well, the story's finally getting along now, and the plot thickens. **cries** POOR Dib! I hated to do that to Raye, but it had to happen. I feel kinda like Zim, not wanting to, but having to cuz it's my job. Hmm, yea well I can't say what's going to happen so HA! Squiggle in anticipation! Sorry for any typos, I know there's prolly alot. Also, I can't tell you who Lan and her 2 band mates are yet, but you'll find out in the next chapter, which is going to be SHORTER than this one, okies? I'll let you go wail in despair now, as I am. Bai! ~*~HappyNoodleGurl~*~
