Operation: Karaoke

By Megumi, The Absconding One

*Megumi scurries around a room filled with tables laden with food, party decorations, and a very nice looking sound system with what looks suspiciously like a karaoke machine hooked onto it.*

Megumi: Food? Check. Music? Check. Karaoke? Check check! *snickers evilly* Now... What am I missing? Oh yeah! *claps*

*Zim, Dib, Gaz, GiR, Red, Purple, and various other members of the Invader Zim cast appear in a flash of bright light. All but two look relatively startled by the sudden change of scenery. Zim and Dib don't seem to notice, as they are currently engaged in a heated argument*

Zim: You stupid pathetic human wormbaby! Is it not obvious that Kermit, with his superior greenness, would win out any contest of skill that your puny little brain could fathom!

Dib: No way! Gonzo would totally kick the frog's green behind! Gonzo's the best!

Zim: Kermit!

Dib: Gonzo!

Zim: Kermit! Frog power! *launches himself at Dib, with that scary 'disagree with me and die' look in his red pupils.*

Dib: *sidesteps*

Zim: *crashes into wall*

Dib: *crows* Victory for Earth! *pause* And Gonzo!

Zim: Grr...

Everyone Else in Room: *stare*

Megumi: Ahem.

Zim/Dib: Hehehehehe... he... *embarrassed glances around the room*

Dib: Isn't that odd. One minute we're in your house arguing about the Muppets, and suddenly we're in a room with party decorations, food, a really nice sound system and... Oh no.

Zim: *glares at Megumi* Where are we this time, you stinking worm beast?!?!

Megumi: *smile* At your cast party, duh!

Dib: Cast... Party? Aw man... Don't tell me we've been drafted into another one of your fics.

Megumi: You're so smart, Dib! Have a lollipop. *hands Dib a lolly* Yuppers, ya'll are in my new fic.

GiR: Wheee! *cute look* Can I have a lolly too? Please? Please? Pretty please with a taco on top?

Megumi: Of course you can have a lollipop, GiR! *gives GiR a cherry lolly*

GiR: I love you!

Megumi: I know, I know. I'm highly lovable.

Zim: *snort*

Megumi: Really, I am! For instance... I'll bet... You guys *points to most of Dib and Zim's class* love me because I got a great bunch of caterers, and this is an all you can eat buffet.

*A cheer goes out from half of the crowd, and the run off to go stuff their faces.*

Zim: Cheap, Megumi.

Megumi: Well... Wouldn't all of you *points to the rest of the class* love me if I told you that my DJ *Fillmore stands behind a DJ table, looking cool and playing music* has lots and lots of music for all of you brainwashed preppies to dance to?

*The crowd cheers and runs off. Zim, GiR, Dib, and the Tallest are left.*

Megumi: You three are gonna love me because of...

Red: Well, because of what?

Megumi: That. *points*

*pause*

Red/Purple/GiR: Wooow! *run in the direction that Megumi points*

Purple: Dance Dance Revolution! Whoo hoo!

GiR: *having suddenly learned French for no apparent reason* Viva la revolution!

Megumi: That takes care of them. Now... You two.

Dib: It's no use, Megumi. No matter what you do, you'll never get us to like you! Never!

Megumi: Wouldn't you love me to bits and pieces if I told you that the person who does the best karaoke performance tonight won't be a part of my next fic?

*Megumi turns to look at our... Er, heroes, but they've suddenly vanished. Megumi smiles as she looks up at the stage where they are currently fighting over who gets the microphone first.

Megumi: Perfect! *snickers evilly, then pulls out a video camera* Blackmail, blackmail, it aint cheatin' if you're using that ol' blackmail...

A/N: Hehe... IZ Karaoke. I love my work, oh yes, yes I do. This is a sequel of sorts to my first IZ fic, 'Invader Zim Goes To The Movies', and a prequel to one of my new IZ fics. It's also a test, but that comes a bit later on. For now, sit back, hold on, and get ready, because Dib is singing first!
