Megorama

chapter 4

Meg wandered the halls of her school. She then gasped once she discovered a human girl who looked an awful lot like Connie D'Amico back in James Woods High School. Meg tried to avoid her, but found nowhere to go as the blonde girl was laughing, walking away from mutant students. Meg crouched down behind a locker with her book over her, gritting her teeth, hoping that the girl wouldn't notice her.

"Hi, are you the new kid?"

Too late. Meg had been discovered. "Yeah, I'm the new girl in school." Meg sighed, standing up next to a possible descendant of Connie.

"Nice to meet you." the blonde girl smiled.

Meg was taken aback. This girl sounded friendly and social toward her. Meg feared that any relative of Connie's would be all the same. Evil, selfish, vain, and taunting, just like the spawn they all came from. "Nice to meet you too..." Meg said, coolly.

"It's tough being the new kid sometimes, we haven't properly met, my name's Candy Damico."

The brown-haired girl winced a bit at the blonde girl's family name, but did well to hide her fear. "Hi, Candy. I'm Meg."

"Wanna come over after school and watch All My Circuits?"

"What's that?"

Candy gasped. "You never heard of All My Circuits!?"

"Uhh... yeah, I heard of it... I just never got to watch it because I came from a poor family before umm... Professor Farnsworth adopted me... H-He's my grand uncle." Meg covered up the best way she could.

"Oh, that explains a lot," Candy smiled. "Ask the Professor if you can come over after school. You seem like you'd be a cool friend to hang out with."

"S-Sure, Candy." Meg smiled. "I'd like that."

"Great!"

The bell rang suddenly.

"Time for biology." Candy remarked.

"I'm going there too, could I maybe walk with you there?"

"Sure, thing, I'd love to help a new kid!"

Meg smiled and followed Candy to class. Maybe befriending a Damico descendant wouldn't be so bad.

"Hey, guys," Fry spoke up after a while of flying. "You think Meg would want to go back home? I mean, her family kinda sucks based on what I heard."

"It's only the right thing to do, Fry," Farnsworth said. "We've been trying to send you back to 1999 for years so we could finally be rid of an annoying little twerp!"

"WHAT!?"

"Uh, nothing... Let's listen to some tunes, shall we?"

"Well, I say we take her in as our own," Bender admitted. "I could teach her how to be more like a robot, she could go to school here, and I could teach her what I know in my life."

"Bender, you're not teaching Meg how to drink, smoke, and gamble without having functional lungs and a liver." Leela said, sounding annoyed.

"Who said I was!?" Bender sat up. "Was it you, Zoidberg? You always sell me out!"

"Zoidberg didn't even do anything to kind, robot friend!" the lobster man said in defense.

"Right... It's always the quiet ones..." Bender looked around, suspiciously. He then looked back at Zoidberg. "Was it you?"

"Bender, knock it off!" Amy sounded annoyed, then smiled. "It might be a good idea to keep Meg though... It'd be good for both of us. We could be the sisters neither of us had growing up!"
