One time in history class, we were covering the civil war, back in February because of black history month, we covered Harriot Tubman, Fredrick Douglass, Tuskegee airman and last but not least, the civil war. since we lived in Massachusetts, my history teacher talked about the Massachusetts 54th regiment the first colored regiment. then he mentioned the movie "glory" good god, that movie made me cry... Morgan freeman and Denzel Washington at their finest :D the soundtracks was always my favorites out of any movie. it proved that it doesn't matter if your black or white, we can all fight for freedom. one of my friend's great grandfather fought in the 54th and that just gave me Massachusetts pride. i loved the character's even though some of them are fictional, the character "Thomas Searles" was one of my favorites, not strong but brave, and willing...hell he was the first volunteer in the regiment (movie) and made an epic quote near the end of the movie. alot of the action scenes are inspired by this movie and the soundtracks too, i may adopt the character "Thomas Searles" in this story and i may even ask you to listen to some of my favorite soundtrack during action scenes, (not all of them are from glory) i wont be doing that all the time though. anyway, heres the story...
Chapter 2: Prejudiced
Tak landed within a hotel landing pad, after she checked in she took a look at her room. it was fairly clean, twin bed, shower (yeah irkens don't die from water too) television, she sat at her bed and pulled out a device of some kind, she pressed a button on the side of the device and it opened a holographic map of the UK, however there was a warning on the map saying "arrur" which meant "Error"
Hmm, his Pak cant seem to be found, oh well that only delays me a bit. The informant said he was doing some sort of research here in London. Sigh* well, were to begin?
Tak decided to leave the hotel, and interrogate people that the informant mentioned that he was associated with.
first was a historian, a professor in the university of London. strange...why would he care about human history? whats going on in his mind?
Tak left the hotel, she went on her way to her speeder then she bumped into a human man.
"HEY WATCH WHERE YOUR GOING! STUPID IRKEN BITCH!"
"I beg your pardon? it was a accident, and i don't need to take shit from you right now"
"I WAS CLEARLY IN YOUR VIEW! MAYBE YOUR FUCKING BUG EYES IS WHATS CAUSING THIS!"
"listen asshole, your talking to a Irken diplomat, someone who is going your fucking head in jail for insulting me like that! now if you will excuse me i have business to attend to"
tak really doesn't want to cope with this idoit, she attempted to walk away
"NO IRKEN BITCH IS TELLING ME WHAT TO DO!"
the man threw a fist at her, tak quickly countered it by grabbing the hand and throwing him over her down to the ground and put her knee on his neck
"im sorry what did you say?"
the man attempted to speak, but the pressure from Tak's knee is choking him
"i don't know why we bother trying to ask human's for help, you are ignorant, weak and undisciplined"
Tak releases the man, he quickly got on to his feet and ran to a nearby ally. that man was a really racist he did not to say all that extra stuff about Tak being Irken are all humans like this?
later as she walks down to the park, Tak heard yelling in the background. it was a Irken refugee and a human cop with a helmet that disguises his voice
"please sir, all this stuff, its all i have left"
"Irken civilian, by order of UNEA court , all Irkens possession are being confiscated for evidence"
"evidence for what? what did i do wrong?"
"all irken's must do as follow, allow me to confiscate your possessions, you will have them returned in over a month"
"a MONTH? NO! please! this is all my stuff, i don't have anything else to support on!"
the irken tried to push the cop away from his luggage, the cop did not take it well
"you have resisted higher human authority, prepare for physical judgement"
the cop pulled out his electric baton and started beating the irken
"NO! STOP! PLEASE!"
the cop continued until the Irken was bleeding from his mouth and nose, the Irken began crying.
"Very well, we will acquire your possessions in 24 hours, this time we are willing use lethal response if you resist"
the bleeding Irken nodded "yes...officer"
"heh heh heh, good now get out of here" then the cop walked away
Tak was mad, how can he do that? why are Irkens being treated this way? Tak wanted to rip that cop's spine out and ask him for his possessions
Tak walked past the park and made her way to the university, Tak entered the university then when to the receptionist at a nearby counter.
"pardon me madam, where can i find *looks at a note* Thomas Seenums?"
the woman just stared at her, then she pointed to a sign behind Tak, the sign shocked tak it said: NO IRKEN;MU IRKEN
"are you serious?"
"we are indeed, please leave the premises this is a human ONLY building"
"i am a diplomat, surely you can make some exception"
"no Irkens, leave now or else i will get security"
If Tak could, she would've snapped this bitch's neck fight off the guard and beat the shit out of get the info and leave. but she wouldn't waste time like that,
now waiting outside the university, Tak became frustrated and punched the wall, only hurting her self because it was made from bricks, suddenly she heard a voice behind her
"hey now, why are you so mad?"
she turned to see a dark skinned man, who had a English accent.
"who are you?"
"now now, i believed i asked a question first"
"I-I'm just mad of...of-"
"how you're treated here?"
"yes exactly, how?-"
"i have been against it since the day i could talk"
"wha-...who are you?"
"my name is Thomas Seenums, and may i ask your name?"
"I'm Tak Omeksreda, i have been loo-"
"i know you have been looking for me, and i know your looking for him. Omeksreda you say? that is Irkish for Silverstride am i right?"
"Y-Yes mister"
"such a beautiful name"
A shade of dark green came across Tak's face no one has really complimented her before
"now i have a few questions for you" Tak said.
"ask away madam, come walk with me, i know you need to see him, and i can lead you to him"
"I see why...Zim...spoke to you, you are not like the other humans"
"why do you dread his name? has he done something to you?"
"yes he has, but that was a long time ago. it is my mission to retrieve him to my Employer"
"ahh, so while we walk to his home, what questions do you have for me?"
"what did Zim want from you?"
"he wanted...Guidance, he wanted to know if there was humans that are not like the ones you met today, and i told him there was. one such as me should not judge those because of their race but for their character, almost what Martin Luther king would have said"
"erm...martin who?"
"a great man, with great wisdom, he nearly unified the US by preaching to the blacks, that the whites were our brothers, and that we should give our brother love and respect instead of prejudges and hatred"
"he sounds too peaceful...not like the humans I've met so far"
"with comes technology, so was our pride in ourselves. we are too arrogant, we believe that we are better than you Irkens now that's why we treat you like that, it isn't necessarily Inhumane"
"how do you know where Zim lives?"
"if you had read the sign at the front counter you should know, Irkens are not allowed in colleges or have any form of higher learning, Zim would always wait for me after school was over and ask me to come to his home for human lessons"
"Zim, was really into human history wasn't he?"
"indeed, we are almost there"
Tak was somewhat anxious, she hasn't seen Zim for a long time, but she is hoping that Zim would resist going with her so she can have a excuse to beat the crap out of him
"here we are" said Thomas
it was a apartment complex, like the hotel Tak lives, it was fairly clean. however it was in a bad part of the neigboor hood
"he should be at room 35b"
Thomas took his leave
"hey wait, were are you going?"
"i believe it is none of my business between you two, if you need me im always leaving the university after 4 PM"
Tak nodded, Thomas was now out of sight, Tak walked in the apartment. she took an elevator to level "b" then look for room 35. she found it, she took a deep breath, and knocked the door... (somewhat hard)
Tak didn't know why, but she kept her left hand on her MR12 Pistol holster...
Well thats it for this chapter! I hope the last names wernt too crappy, this wont be the last of THOMAS SEENUMS (lol "nums") anyway remember that you can PM me your own character, also i bet you guys will like the next chapter :D Grurae Horrariior - VAL
