Fanon:Big Nate and the Big Event (footnote: my first fanfic story on there!)

Chapter 1

“I can’t believe school starts today”, I said.

“Neither do I” Teddy replied.

“Hey, guys, cheer up!” Francis said.

“Yeah, right, like we’d like to back to school!”

“Oh c’mon, Nate, didn’t you miss all those guys for the whole summer?”

“Sure, I missed Chad and Dee Dee, but Gina, Chester and Kim? No, thank you”.

As the first period, we had advisory with Mrs. Godfrey. I thought it’s gonna be the worst period of my life.

“Welcome back to school, people!” our teacher said. “This year, a new student will join our class”.

A girl stood up from her desk and came to the chalkboard.

“Everybody, this is Coco, she’s from Mexico”, Godfrey continued.

We all thought it’s gonna take a while, when she’s gonna find a friend, but on the first break, she seemed to chatter with Teddy a lot.

We had P.E. as the next period. While we were changing in our sport clothes, I said:

“It seems someone liiikes you!”

“Cut it out, Nate! Coco and I know each other only for an hour!” Teddy answered.

“Dude, you talked with her a lot on that break. That means something”, Francis noticed.

“We just both know Spanish language! It’s good to talk like that!”

When P.E. lesson started, our coach said, we’re gonna train pitching and batting. Coach paired me with Coco and told me to be the batter. When my partner stood on her plate, I said: “Bring it on!”

Turns out, Coco throws really hard. I noticed that she almost hit Kim Cressly with the ball. Man, she so strong, no wonder, why Teddy buds with her.

Chapter 2

When I got home, I suddenly saw Gordie on our living room’s sofa. He was pretty shivery.

“Want some tea for you to cheer up?” Ellen asked him.

“No, thanks”, he answered.

“What happened?” I asked.

“I don’t want to talk about it”, Gordie replied.

“I’ll tell him”, Ellen said. “Gordie got fired”.

“WHAT?! Why?!”

“Klassik Komix cuts bugdets and some employees must lose thier job”.

“We have to do something!” I decided.

We went to the shop to talk with Wayne. I asked:

“Couldn’t you wait with sacking those people?”

Wayne mumbled something. He said that the store didn’t sell enough of comics and it’s missing 10 thousands bucks.

“I see, that people don’t like the store’s comics. Can we make one contest?”

Wayne mumbled, asking what contest is it.

“We can make a contest for the next comic selled in the store. It’s gonna be likable, so the store is gonna make more money, and buh-bye bugdet cutting”.

Wayne showed a thumb up, which meant he agrees.

“So, it’s a deal. We’re making the contest”.

Chapter 3

Next day, I was sitting in front of my desk on maths. I saw Teddy, who wanted to pass a note to me. He wrote:

“Nate, Francis and I saw who’s gonna start in our contest. Come with us at the recess, you won’t believe it. Your bud, Teddy”.

On the break, I asked:

“Okay, what’s going on?”

“Come and see”, Francis answered.

“WHAT?! This is an outrage!” I screamed.

One of those contestants were Nolan and Zach from Jefferson! Maybe you could take it, but hey! Their strip is about the so – called J – knight, who has to fight the Evil Bobcat! How rude is that?!

Later, I tried to find Randy.

“What do you want?”, he asked.

“Pass this note, to your friend, Nolan, please. And don’t you dare opening it!”, I said.

In this note, I wrote:

“Hey, Nolan! We need to talk. You, Zach, me and my friends, at the Cluffy’s Cliff, tommorow, after school”.

The next afternoon, Francis, Teddy, and I were waiting for Nolan and Zach. They finally came after while.

“So, you want to fight?” Zach asked.

“First, tell us about your strip!” I replied.

“Oh, this? You know why? ‘Cause we’re cool. Bobcats are never cool”.

“Now, yes, I want to fight!”

“Guys, relax!” Francis said. “How about two – hand touch?”

“Don’t be a weenie, Francis”, Teddy cautioned.

“Okay, you wanna fight? Let’s fight!” Nolan yelled and punched Francis in his face. Meanwhile, Teddy kicked Zach in his leg. But then, Nolan grabbed my shirt. He was about to hit me, but then…

“Hey, rat – breath! Leave’ em alone!”

It was Coco. We were so thankful, she came here.

“Or what?” Nolan asked in an obnoxious way.

“Or this”.

In a short while we could hear Nolan’s underpants’ yanking.

“You saw that?!” I asked.

“That girl… gave him a wegdie!” Francis shouted.

Nolan and Zach ran away.

“Thanks for help, Coco”, Teddy said.

“You’re welcome”, she answered.

Chapter 4

Maybe we won that yesterday’s fight, but that doesn’t meant, that Nolan and Zach will let go with their strip.

“So, what should we do?”, I asked. “We can’t let them humiliate us!”

“I know!”, Teddy exclaimed. “Let’s make a comic book for the contest!”

“Okay, but about who?”, Francis asked.

I was about to say something, but the bell ringed. This time, I didn’t mind, because we had art class.

Today, Mr. Rosa told us, to sketch a place we enjoyed last summer. I was tired drawing the 4th of July fair over, and over again, so I just drawed a place, where I wanted to be – the Peanuts – themed hotel in Japan (What? A real comic fan appriecates classics!).

When we stopped sketching, we had to show our artworks. Remember that new girl, Coco? Turns out, she’s a pro, her sketches are even better, than Artur’s! And then, I came up with a pretty good idea.

I thought we could ask her to draw characters of our comic book! On the another recess, I talked about it with Francis and Teddy. They said, they think it’s a good idea.

We went to the canteen and sit near the table. Later, Coco sat with us.

“Hey, Coco, we have a one question”, Teddy said.

“Go on”.

“Remember, when you defended us from Nolan and Zach? Those jerks of the J-Knight strip?”

“Yup.”

“We’re planning to make a comic book and defeat them in the contest.”

“And?”

“We’d asked you, will you be drawing charcters of our strip.”

“Really?”

“Yeah.”

“Sure.”

“Cool! So, let’s meet all of us after school. You have any siblings?”

“No, I’m only child”.

“Ok, let’s meet at yours”.

Chapter 5

We arrived to Coco’s house. Our friend showed us the way to her room. We all sat on the floor.

“So, about who should be our strip?” I asked.

“Maybe about some superheroes?” Francis offered.

“Ok. How many of them?”, Coco asked.

“Not four. It would be like we’re ripping off Justice League”, Teddy noticed.

“How about three of them?”

“Okay”.

“Now, let’s think of the leader”, Francis said.

“I got one. His name’s Steve and he’s an ordinary teen during the day. But when the sun goes down, he become a super – strong man”, I said.

“What about his qualities?”

“He’s often lightsome and clueless, but he’s a good man”.

“Okay, I imagined him, and drew him”, Coco announced and showed her drawing.

Steve was a blond with a combover. He had lots of muscles. He wore a red suit and light blue cape and shoes. The drawing was pretty cool.

“Now, what about Steve’s friends?”

“One of them’s name is Frank and he’s an African – American. He’s super – fast and he’s Steve’s best friend, since preschool”, Teddy said. “Unlike Steve, he’s responsible and he thinks before he does something, but as people say, opposites attract.”

“What does he wear?”

“A blue suit and green cape and shoes”.

“And the superhero #3?”

“This time, it’s a girl. Her name’s Claire and she’s Steve and Frank’s friend, since 1st grade”, Coco continued. “She’s really clear – eyed and her character is a transision, between Steve and Frank’s personalities. She has long, brown, vaved hair and she wears yellow top and shoes, blue shorts and a mask”.

“Okay, we’ve got our characters, so we have to make first pages of our comic!” I announced.

End of Part 1.
