Lines Between Us: Chapter 30-
*Biz's pov...*
A lot of kids are asking about you. They want to know what happened and why there is barely any connection between us. We haven't told them the truth, but some are getting impatient. What should we do?
-Faith and Gabriel
I pondered this note for a while. I know that I'm in Vizion and all, but I'm still a part of Earth. I figured that I would set things straight.
I found my laptop in a box under my bed and decided to make a video.
*Time Skip-brought to you by Lights, Camera, Action!*
The screen started black.
"There have been rumors floating around lately. Most of you have heard of these. Some of you may have started them. I just want to clear things up and tell you all the truth."
I turned on the camera to show myself in human form.
"You may know me as Zarina Zipler: A girl who was just like all of you. I was harassed and called an alien. No one really knew that they........were partly right."
I transformed into an alien.
"I am only half alien, because of my father. But I'm no different from any of you. My intelligence does not change, and neither do my feelings. Who am I, you ask?
Well, I am Captain Biz of Vizion, a project dedicated to preserving peace throughout the galaxy. We've thwarted many attacks towards Earth. This goes unnoticed for you, as most of you are busy with other tasks such as school.
I tried to be in both worlds, but it turned out that I was needed in the alien world more, so I dropped out of Riddle School."
I sighed and continued on.
"I realize that most of you will think this is a fake. Most of you won't realize my true message. Most of you will forget everything I said. Well, there's one thing I don't want you to forget: You can't judge a book by its cover."
I stopped the video there and was about to edit it, when I heard a voice call me from outside the room. I quickly went to see what was going on.
*Chiz's pov...*
I walked into the room, expecting to find Biz as usual, but I didn't. She's probably at some sort of meeting with the other leaders.
I looked at her desk to see a laptop with a note on it. The note said:
Do NOT touch this or else!
-Biz
I really wanted to see what it was, so I touched it. A video popped up and I watched it. I was shocked when I saw it. I decided to make it a little bit better by adding to it.
"You guys don't know me, but that's okay. I'm Chiz, Biz's assistant. I know you have your personal opinions, and I'm not saying anything to offend that, but I thought you'd like a second opinion.
I grew up in slavery on my home planet (insert name here). I was heavily abused and I never thought I would see freedom. A civil war broke out between Vizion and the government. Vizion won the war which, in turn, set me free. I owe my life and more to my Captain, for she led the attack that won that war. I didn't want to tell her because I was afraid of what she would say. She did not get mad like I thought, instead she was there to support me. I owe her a lot, and my pile of debts keeps climbing. She really is a good person.
I better end it here before she comes back."
I stopped the video there. I quickly edited it so the two parts were seamlessly one whole thing. I closed the laptop and moved over to my bed and pretended that nothing happened. Just as I predicted, the door opened.
"Jiz, it's the blue button. The red one triggers the alarm!" Biz said before closing the door.
"When did you get here?" Biz asked, the question directed at me, of course.
"I got here a moment ago. I decided to wait for you to come back." I answered, "By the way, what are you doing there, Captain?"
Biz was back on the laptop again. I pretended not to know what she was doing in hopes of not getting in trouble.
"That's something you don't need to know, Chiz." Biz replied, her eyes on the laptop screen.
"Wait a minute! Was it this long before? I thought it was about two minutes less than this. Unless... you were tampering with my laptop, weren't you?" Biz said, turning her attention to me.
"I'm sorry, Captain. My curiosity got the best of me." I replied.
"Did you add something to it?" Biz asked.
"I may have added something, yes. I wanted to help make the presentation better." I answered.
Biz watched the piece of the presentation that I added. I was starting to feel really embarrassed! I knew I was in trouble.
"Chiz.....Did you mean all this?" Biz asked, turning towards me.
"Y-Yes?" I quietly muttered. I was so embarrassed that I could barely speak!
"Are you blushing?" Biz asked with a slight giggle.
"N-No." I stuttered. My cheeks only blushed more. This caused Biz to giggle a little more.
"So, shall we send it?" Biz asked.
"If I don't look too embarrassing, yeah." I replied.
She pressed a key on her laptop and sent the video down to Earth. Let's hope they believed it.
*Faith's pov...Yay! Haven't done this in a while!*
It was middle school reunion and I was very excited! Will Biz come again?
"Do you think Biz will come again?" I asked my brother, Gabriel, as we entered the room.
"Faith, I really don't know. Last time, she was shot in the shoulder! I wish she could." Gabriel replied.
"Because you like her." I said, "You like-like her."
"No! No, I don't!" Gabriel replied.
"I saw the way you danced with her!" I responded.
"Again, I don't have a crush on her! She already has a boyfriend! I remember she told us last time we saw her." Gabriel answered.
"Fine." I muttered.
"Ladies and Gentleman, we are about to announce this year's homecoming king and queen!" the announcer said.
Homecoming king and queen!? I know homecoming was last week, but still! We already graduated from Middle School! Or is this how reunions work?
"Our homecoming king is............ Gabriel Eggtree! Do we have a Gabriel Eggtree?"
"WHAT!?" My brother and I said together.
Gabriel shrugged and went up to the stage. Everyone clapped and cheered.
"The homecoming queen to go with our homecoming king will be....... Zarina Zipler! Do we have a Zarina Zipler?"
I quickly ran towards the stage.
"I'm not Zarina Zipler, but I have a message that she sent since she could not be here." I said as I attached my phone to the projector.
Her message was heard by everyone in the room. Muttered voices filled the room afterward.
"Whoa! So, she's an alien?"
"She saved the world? Cool!"
"I wish she was here."
"I'd like to sign up for that!"
I smiled at Gabriel who smiled back at me. We had just changed history for us all.
