Chapter 10
••••••••••••
Dib rushed into his classroom and into his seat- just in time, too. He had nearly been late when he had started to go back to the 'crash site' from the other night, but had completely forgotten that he had school today. The bell rang and Ms. Bitters stood up from her desk.
"Children, today we will be introducing a new student," She groaned as always, "Zeg, please step up to the front of the classroom." At Zeg's name, Dib automatically looked up. He saw her heading up to the front, almost emotionlessly. Once she stood in front of the classroom, she simply waved and said hello. She wore a purple sweatshirt with maroon-tipped sleeves, and a maroon collar and bottom, along with baggy black jeans. Her hair was a golden-brown color and was pulled back in a loose ponytail by a purple ribbon. Along with all that, she also had a small, black backpack. Her eyes were a rich violet and were looking at the floor and nothing but it.
"My name is Zeg… I… will only be staying here for a few months, though I do look forward to getting to know you all b…" She said, but was cut off when the door to the classroom slammed open. Zim marched in, obviously not in a good mood, and stopped when he saw Zeg at the front of the room. On his face, he wore an emotion that was a mix of disgust and revenge. He pointed at her and one of his eyes twitched.
"YOU…!" He started, but he noticed that the whole class was staring at him, including Zeg.
You err… uhm… HI!" He squealed in a poor attempt to seem happy. The whole class still glared at him suspiciously. Zim slid into his seat and folded his hands on his desk, looking around casually.
"Zeg, please make your way back to your seat." Ms. Bitters said hoarsely.
"But I didn't even get to finish!" She whined.
"NOW!"
Zeg sighed sadly and walked back to her seat. Many of the kids laughed and threw wads of paper at her. Zim smirked at her and she just looked back sadly. Bitters started to drone on about how the worlds actions will eventually cause the Earth to combust in it's own errors. Of course, Dib wasn't listening. He was too busy letting his mind wander on about how he could get Zeg to tell him what truly happened that night before.
