'A machine copy of something beautiful,

A deception so wonderful,

It never fails to steal attention away...'

2D's POV

Nights at KONG were very creepy, especially since my room was right near the cinema. There were all sorts of zombies perching in there to grab either one of us when we even tried to watch a film. Especially Noodle. They always seem to grab Noodz first. I have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA what an undead zombie would want with a vibrant, energetic 15 year old, but I was sure as heck I would never let their filthy hands touch my lil' luv. They can meet the wrath of my scythe! Oh, didn't you know? I have this black and silver scythe nestling in between my keyboard displays. Don't tell Murdoc though...

Suddenly, I could hear a faint scream from below my room, which woke me from my pill-induced sleep (no questions here...). I didn't bother with a shirt, so I ran out to the lift in my pyjama bottoms. The screams became louder and I instantly knew where. Noodle! I rushed into her room only to find that one of those retarded zombies was pushing Noodle into the wall, clutching places that NO zombie should ever touch of a girl and half of her clothes were ripped off her. 'No freaking way...' I thought. I lunged out at the zombie and tore its hand off

"EAAAAAAAAARGGAAAAAAAAAAAA!" It cried out, and disintegrated into a nearby plate of spaghetti.

"Noodle, luv, a'e yew al'ight?" I asked

"Toochi... I tried fighting it...I really did...I- it- t-tried to-"she sobbed into my shoulder.

"Shhh...Its al'ight, I've got yew... yew'll be ok, right, luv?"

"Stay with me, Toochi..." she pleaded

"Yew know that Russ will 'ave my 'ead on a silver platter if I do, luv. 'M sorry..."

"Well can't you stay until I fall asleep? Please Toochi, please?" She looked up at me with those beautiful emerald eyes I always melted into. They always reminded me of the gems themselves. Beautiful and pure...

"Well sure luv! Do yew 'ant me to sing somethin' for yew?"

"Can you sing me that little thing you made earlier? I really liked it, Toochi" she began to smile up at me, and I literally died and went to Heaven.

"Sure thing."

I began to sing the melody I had made by myself earlier on. I had named it 'Hill' but I think 'On Melancholy Hill' sounds a lot better

'Up on Melancholy hill, there's a plastic tree,

Are you here with me?

Just looking out on the day,

Of another dream...

Well you can't get what you want,

But you can get me...

So let's head out to sea, love,

'Cause you are my medicine,

When you're close to me...

When you're close to me... '

She drifted peacefully to sleep; I covered her with her Japanese blanket and left for my room. She's so gentle, like a flower... but I don't think a beautiful creation like her could ever love something like me .I'm quite ugly after all. I've been made this way by that old sod, Murdoc and his carelessness and everyone says I have 'pretty boy looks' but I'm quite sure I'm ugly. If I wasn't, Paula... my Ex, wouldn't have had to go to Murdoc to have her desires filled. Kids wouldn't stare weirdly at my face or my hair. I closed the door of my room and jumped into bed. 'She is my medicine... cause I feel so much better... if only she were close to me right now...' I slowly drifted off to sleep with thoughts of Noodle swirling my head. 'My flower...'

3rd Person

Meanwhile, Murdoc was in his Winnebago staring at a picture of Noodle in a purple swimsuit when they all went to the beach one summer to rest from their first album. He placed the photo on his belly, but slightly lower, and began to mutter things under his breath

'Oh Noodle...soon...very soon you will be mine... I can feel it...' He began to laugh softly which eventually turned into small sobs, he being tormented by his thoughts and emotions. A wave of worry came over him when he thought about what she thought about him.

'What if she just sees me as a father figure? That would be totally wrong... right? Does she think I'm revolting? Maybe I need to shape up a bit...does she think I'm mean? Does she think I drink too much? Do I scare her? Intimidate her? Make it seem that I don't like her at all? Perhaps ...Nahh! Dullard and Noodz could NEVER get together... He's too stupid to realise the blossoming beauty before him... but they have that sort of...bond that can't separate those two... It's different to a father-daughter bond like her and Lards and a little more than a brother-sister bond too... right. I've got to do something... or I'll lose my cherry blossom to that bumbling idiot. Tomorrow, I'll spend the day with Noodz, doing whatever she wants to do... even though it may annoy me to the ends of the universe... and WIN HER OVER. And establish a bond between us too. It's perfect. We'll be perfect. Finally, I have the one thing that can't be violently ripped from my grasp...I will never let her be taken away from me... never...' He placed the photo on his lips, then his chest and drifted off to sleep. One thing was certain to Murdoc. He wouldn't let his flower drift into another's hand. He would be doomed if he did.
