WARNING: CHAPTER CONTAINS MAJOR DISTURBING SCENES
Careless
It was morning and Nix was waiting for the bus to arrive. He hadn't spoken ever since his incident in his room and he wondered if he should call a paranormal investigator just to get rid of whatever invaded his personal space.
He then remembered he himself wasn't exactly normal and he would be giving himself away rather than the thing that assaulted him. Ann and Mike would think he'd lost it and was insane. Nix didn't want to be placed in the category Dib was in, the crazy category.
Mike had smirked at him when the horrible human caught a glimpse of the scar he received last night.
The bus screeched to a halt and Nix silently entered after Mike. Since Nix's bag was stolen, he decided to try something new and place his homework in his PAK.
As usually the kids screamed insults at him, but it was worst when they spotted his PAK and started calling him gay.
The same kid that called him a mutant yesterday had noticed that his PAK was pinkish in color and screamed, "HEY CHECK OUT THE GAY FREAK'S BACKPACK, HE LIKES PINK!"
Snickering could be heard, and a volley of paper balls came flying his way, smacking Nix in his face and back. Nix sat down on the floor and kept quiet, several of the pieces of papers rolled down the isle and landed next to him.
He picked up, uncrumpled one and examined it. It had a picture of him wearing pink and the word fag written on the top, his eyes twitched beneath his goggles and he gritted his teeth back in to a snarl. Nix growled in anger crumpled the piece of paper and ripped it to shreds in rage.
The bus later stopped at Hi Skool, Nix was careful to check for any hidden humans hiding behind the bus door, just before he exited the contraption. He didn't feel like having his face collide with the pavement again.
Nix sighed and placed up his hoodie in an attempt to hide his face, but he knew it was completely pointless because most headgear wasn't permitted in the school, with the exception of religion.
He walked in to the crowded school hall, walking past several popular girls and cheerleaders that pointed, laughed and gossiped about him. A few jocks from the football team joined a few of the girls and started making out in the hallway.
Nix was surprised he made it to his locker, and that he was able to see where he was going. Everyone was taller than him and it would be easy to get lost in the endless flow of humans.
Nix was probably the most unpopular kid in school, even more unpopular than the nerds who had a liking for homework, science and role-playing games.
He was smarter than all of the nerds put together, because his PAK gathered all of the necessary data needed for his assignments, that's if he paid attention and he completed most of the work in less than five minutes. But he kept all of that information to himself and didn't show off like the nerds did, even if he was called to answer a question; he was basically considered dumb and deformed.
Nix typed in his locker combination (the lockers no longer have regular locks). He opened his locker, making sure no one was sneaking up on him to surprise attack him and shove in his own locker.
To his relief there was no one, just two dorky nerds talking about comic con, lord of the rings collectibles and which magic the gathering card they had.
He gathered up his text books, closed his locker and jumped, dropping his books in surprise to see Dib standing there.
"AHHHHH, WHAT THE HELL DIB!" Nix yelped and fell backwards landing on his PAK with a loud thwack.
A few of kids turned their heads towards the sound, but many people quickly lost interest and continued with their conversations.
Dib looked at him with a grin, but it faded quickly when he saw the scar trailing down Nix's face, "What happened to you?"
Nix's eyes widened beneath his goggles, he couldn't tell him or he'd be sounding as crazy as him, he quickly collected his books, "Uh, nothing!" he quickly replied and ran to class, leaving Dib confused.
Nix arrived just as the bell rang. Mrs. Bitters narrowed her eyes at him, expecting him to be late to send him to the underground classrooms.
Dib was less fortunate and arrived 5 seconds late.
Mrs. Bitters swiveled her attention to Dib, "Dib, why are you late?"
Dib's brown eyes showed a look of absolute terror and panic, "Um I had to use the bathroom?"
The demonic crone glared at him and towered over him casting an unnatural shadow over the frightened teenager, "That's a pathetic excuse, for an unlikely horrible child of prof. Membrane."
"But I had to go," Dib rose a shakily finger.
"NO, EXCEPTIONS! You go to the underground classrooms until I feel like looking at you again," she hissed, and slammed her hand onto a button that appeared near her desk.
A robotic claw appeared from the ceiling, aiming for Dib's neck. The terrified teenager dodged the claw quickly and dove behind a nearby desk.
It was funny how Nix's fate always ended up in screwed up situations. Dib happened to dive behind his desk and the claw grabbed him by the neck instead.
Nix tried to scream but the claw choked him making it impossible to utter a sound. He tried gasping for breath as the claw brought him up to the ceiling.
The classroom was quiet with shock.
Mrs. Bitters stared at Dib, "I guess you're lucky this time, but next time you pull that stunt you'll be going down with him."
Dib would have laughed at Nix and screamed "score one for humanity and none for horrible hideous aliens" but Nix looked innocent. Nix hadn't even mentioned anything about bringing upon earth's demise. Somewhere in his conscious Dib felt guilty.
Nix clawed vigorously at the metallic appendage as he was plunged into the darkness of the ceiling.
For a few seconds he was suspended in the dark then as soon as he was grabbed, he was released and sliding down a tube. He twisted and turned, scrapping his knees and elbows in the process. He then fell into a dimly lit room, slamming head first into a desk and collapsing onto the floor in pain.
His vision was blurred and he could see three dim ceiling lights swirling then coming back in place. He could hear a few voices in the room, around him.
"Hey, who's that," a squeaky male voice said.
"I don't now, but he looks freaky," a female voice replied.
"Hey, that's the new kid," a tougher male voice said.
"Are youse a sure about dat maun, it don't look human," a male with a heavily accented voice answered.
The tougher male's voice seemed irritated, "You're sounding like that freak Dib, that kid is just horribly deformed and he has dafism too. I think that's another word for midget."
"It's dwarfism Torque, not dafism. Dafism isn't a word," the squeaky voice corrected.
"Shut up, NERD! Or do you want me to shove your smart ass down the toilet again," the human named Torque growled, making a cracking sound with his knuckles.
Nix groaned and painfully sat up rubbing his aching head.
"Look dat little maun's awake," the human with the accent exclaimed.
Nix looked around and saw who was making all the racket, there was a cheerleader, a very thin nerdy looking kid with glasses wearing a yu-gi-oh shirt with jeans, a big boned football player and a darker skinned teen wearing a pair of glasses sitting on top of his braided hair who wore a big black shirt with a gansta mickey mouse on it.
Other than the humans, he was in a dark musty classroom that looked abandoned. There was no teacher, instead a computer sat in the middle of the room making soft beeping noises with occasional flashes of green light.
This room, the stale smell, the dim light, and the sheer quietness of the classroom was disturbing.
But what he saw in the corner of his eye, terrified him. An inky black figure slinked past his view and he could hear a soft gurgling sound coming from one of the dark corners in the room. He began to sweat and he felt a chill crawl up his spine.
His eyes widened in terror beneath the goggles and he shook uncontrollably. How is it possible? It had followed him, but what did it want from him? Why was it doing this to him?
"Um, kid are you are right?" the nerdy kid asked, pushing up his glasses.
Nix didn't care if he was going to be considered insane, he wasn't going to die down here. He jumped up and grabbed hold of the startled teen's shirt, pulling him down to his level, "WE HAVE GET OUTTA HERE RIGHT NOW! IT'S IN HERE AND IT WILL KILL US!"
Torque shoved the nerd away from his grip and picked him up by the hoodie, then began shaking him furiously, "LISTEN HERE YOU CRAZY MUTANT RUNT! There is nothing down here; we've been down here 2 hours longer than you!"
The shaking caused Nix to become dizzy, bile rose up his throat and he puked all over Torque's uniform.
Torque quickly released Nix and pulled a disgusted face, "Ugh that freak ruined my uniform. I'm gonna kill him!"
But before he took a step forward something wet hit his face, Torque wiped it off quickly, but more dripped down on him, "what the hell...what is this?"
Torque continue to wipe the liquid off, but stopped when he heard a scream.
The cheerleader had a mask of terror covering her face, "BLOOD, THAT'S BLOOD!
Torque looked at the liquid on his hands, and noticed for the first time his hands were covered in the crimson mess. His eyes widened with fear, the cheerleader was crying in the heavily accented teen's arms, the nerd was hiding underneath a desk, but that Nix freak was standing there with an unreadable expression. It was hard to tell on his ugly mug, but he knew it was his fault.
Torque charged towards Nix grabbing him by his hoodie again. This time the blood soaked through, burning the Irken.
"YOU! THIS HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH YOU! Torque shrieked, glaring at Nix with hatred.
"I don't know what's going on, we need to go now!" Nix complained, between clenched teeth.
"Ya know little maun, no one has ever escaped the underground classrooms. It's a plain on impossible ya know," the accented teen said, cradling the scared cheerleader.
"Has anyone gotten out alive?" Nix asked, shoving Torque off by kicking him in the tender spot.
Torque bawled over in pain, groaning about different ways he's going to kill Nix from attacking his sensitive area.
"Yes, but there was a case where some students had gone missing. No one had ever found them," the Nerd said, shakily from beneath the desk.
There was a loud creaking sound and the ceiling soon collapsed with a spray of blood. The nerd screamed like a girl and grabbed hold of Nix and began sobbing in his now bloodied hoodie. The tears stung him along with the blood, but what he saw brought his fears boiling back towards him.
The lights hung by one wire and flickered, threatening to burn out completely.
The intoxicating smell of rotting flesh, and screams of his fellow human prisoners ripped though the air. Everyone else was freaking out, but why was he so calm. He was more terrified in his life but he still stood his ground.
A human girl hung upside down from the broking ceiling. Suspended by networks of wires that dug though the decaying flesh. Her face was ripped off, showing pieces of her shattered skull and broken teeth. Her chest was cut open and lacked all her organs, the girl was missing her eyes and he stared at the empty sockets. His squeedly spooch, his only organ pounded uncomfortably and his antennae beneath his wig stood up from fear.
The cheerleader happened to take a glimpse of the corpse and screamed, "OH MY GOD THAT'S LUNA, IT GOT LUNA!"
Her cries were interrupted by a psychotic high-pitched voice. Two glowing cyan lights coming from a corner approached, the dim lights began to flicker and soon burned out completely before everyone caught sight of a small bloodied robot.
It was pitch back and Nix couldn't see until the nerd flicked on a flash light. The nerd was startled and let out a yelp only to realize it was just him. The nerd looked relieved but Nix's eyes widened in terror when he saw two cyan eyes behind the teen, the cyan eyes then changed to a blood red and there was a high pitched scream, "YAY, MONKAY! I THINK IMMA SAW YOU IN HALF!"
The nerd face turned into a look that Nix couldn't decipher but he knew he wanted to scream, "Help me" before he was dragged off into the darkness followed by a loud scrunching sound. The flash light broke and the nerds glasses clattered to the ground.
He wanted it all to go away, he closed his eyes and bit his lip, tasting the burning blood from that human.
All he heard was insane giggling and random words like, "Aw, WHERE'S THE TACOS. IMMA LOOK INSIDE YOUR HEAD!" Then there was a sickening Ccrunch, then screaming, and he also felt the cold hand brush against him. It all faded like nothing ever happened in a minute. He was stuck in the dark alone, but he could have sworn he heard someone breathing.
About 15 minutes later...
He was brought back up along with a surprise survivor, Torque. They were drenched head to toe in blood and Torque was crying like a baby for his mother. Ann had come crying with a stone faced Mike, police swarmed the whole entire school quarantining the whole building.
They were both cleaned and Nix didn't care if he burned from the water, he just wanted the blood off.
Nix and Torque were being questioned. Torque had a nervous breakdown and started crying again. The detective questioning Nix grew suspicious of him because of his lack of normal emotions to the situation.
Nix realized how bad he looked, he had never cried before and he doubt he could express the emotion of crying from fear.
Ann had hugged him and gave him some affection, but for some reason he couldn't give her any back.
He was tired of these humans always targeting him; he didn't care if this human had authority he snapped, "Why don't you leave me alone! You're after me because I'm different, so just FUCK OFF!"
He didn't know what to do when the human gave him a funny look, until someone he least expected came and covered him.
Dib ran up to the detective and explained that it was impossible for Nix to be a suspect because he had just arrived at school the other day and the body of Luna was at least three days old. The detective wouldn't believe word from a world known crazy kid, but Nix was soon released from suspicion after the detective received a few school records.
Nix looked at Dib, "I'm still mad at you."
Ok that's the second to last time you'll ever see bloody Gir again, he has one more appearance but after that no more. So Dib is feeling really sorry, hmm this is a beginning of a shaky friendship. No, there is no NADR in this story and the wraith is not the main threat in the story, it's just a bothersome pest. No Gir is not evil and will be appearing soon, Bloody Gir is a demented entity that is not exactly real in this story, just memory come to life. Please Review!
