"2D!" Noodle squealed as she jumped into his arms. "I've missed you so so much!" he said hugging her tightly. "How did you get here?" said Murdoc coming into the scene. "Russel found me" she said pointing to the window where Russel stood outside. "Look at you! You're so…grown up!" 2D said examining her from head to toe. She smiled at him. She had been 14 the last time they saw her, now she was 20. "So you're a woman now, eh? You don't look like the little Noodle we once knew" said Murdoc. She smiled back at him too. She was so happy to be with her old band mates again. It had been about 6 years. Noodle couldn't help but hug the both of them, she didn't want to let go. They were her family, she had no parents, born from a test experament in a lab, they were her only family.
Noodle couldn't wait to explore her new home on plastic beach. It was different from Kong Studios. It probably wasn't as big but there was still plenty to see. She found her room which had all of her old things in it. Like her radio helmet. They kept that all these times? She remembered how much she loved that helmet. She would never want to take it off. She skipped off to 2D's room. She wondered why 2D had a room deep down in the water, since he hated whales and all. She sat on his bed. It smelt like butterscotch and cigarettes. She giggled at that. A man who always smelt of butterscotch. She liked it though. She got up to find more interesting things. She finally found the bathroom, which was suprisingly small and clean. And the kitchen, which seemed different now that Russel was too big to fit inside the house. And some closets filled with junk.
She found Murdoc's room and went inside. She thought he should be a bit more tidier. All this junk piled around everywhere, boxes in the corner, things all over his bed. She didn't find anything interesting in here so she left to find something else to raid. She went down to the recording studio, which was really filthy. Why can't men clean up after themselves? She shook her head dissapointedly, because she knew eventualy she was going to become the 'maid' of the house. Once she had mess with everything in the room she thought it was time to leave and find something else. She ventured around the house untill she stumbled upon a room called 'The Study Room'. It had a nice view of the beach with its big windows. She went over to the fish tank and saw all the little grey parahnas. But in that bunch was a little pink one. That one became her favourite. It was different than all the others. Noodle had always liked 'different'. She turned around and saw the jute-box that they had back in Kong Studios, it even had all of their songs on it. She then turned her attiention to the book case. She walked over to it. "I wonder what kind of things they read now a days" she said mindlessly to herself. As she was going through the books, she noticed one had been missing from its place. She looked around. She stepped back and stumbled on something. A book. She picked it up and examined it. 'The Bastard'. She then looked at the book then back at the book shelf. The book looked like it could fit in the spot, so she gently squeezed the book in place, then, voila! It worked! The book case slid to the side. Noodle peeked down and saw nothing but what seemed to be an endless staircase. "Welp, no time to waste" she said as she started marching her way down the stairs. Walking didn't seem to be doing the trick, so she started jogging. But jogging didn't seem to be getting her anywhere, so she started running. But she was still taking too long to get to the bottom, so she sprinted, as fast as she could. "Gee, how many stairs do there need to be?" she thought to herself panting and running.
"FINALLY" she gasped. She bent down holding herself up by putting her hands on her knees. "there had to been about 5,000 stairs!" she panted. She bent back up and looked around the room. "Ooh, how curious" she said skipping around to every corner of the room. There were screens above with almost every room in sight, a big book, which seemed to not want to open, a huge war table that lit up bright and green, and some old boxes in the corner. "What is this room?" she wondered to herself. It smelt like Murdoc though. His scent was so strong, you could smell it a mile away. After a while the room started to get creepy, even thought she lived in a place before filled with zombies and tons of creepy shit. She saw a door and walked over to it, thinking about having to walk up all those stairs, this door might make things a bit easier. She wasn't sure what was behind it, but still, anything than those stairs. She walked in slowly, and found herself in an engine room. There were so many big things made of metal and connected to wires that sparked up. A man kept making loud banging noises with his hammer. She wanted to tell the man his bum crack was showing, but being rude wasn't her thing, so she left it for someone else to tell him. Also, where did he come from? Does he live here? I mean, he can't come all the way out here to 'fix' something then leave. Whatever though.
As she was exploreing, she found another door. She opened it and walked right into a little closet. Well, it wasn't a 'little' closet. It was big, and full of big guns, and amo, and more mechanical things that she wasn't sure to make of. She went though everything in that closet. So many curious and interesting things to look at. Where did all this stuff come from? How did they get all of this stuff? So curious. She was walking and looking through all of the guns when all of a sudden- THUMP!
"ouch" she said rubbing her face. "What the heck was that?" she said turning around. She gasped. "oh my goodness! What the heck is that?" she stood up off the ground, and peered into the creepy figure. It seemed to be another human. A…a female too! But what? She wasn't moving. She slouched, her eyes closed behind her…purple hair? And pale skin…almost the same color as Noodle's. she backed up. This 'thing' seemed to look just like Noodle! How weird. Where did this come from? As she back up more, she could see tons of colorful wires hooked up to this 'other Noodle'. They were flickering with electricity. What was this thing? She placed her hands on the things 'face'. It was so cold. It had skin, eyes, a nose, a mouth, ears, hair, a body, with arms, legs, feet, hands, fingers, toes. So strange. Then Noodle thought to herself. "Robot?". "But why? And why look like me?" she thought even more. The robot's eyes flickered bright and its body twitched. This scared Noodle sinceless and she high jacked it out of there. The robot looked terrifying. Noodle was actualy scared of it. But it looked just like her. But why so evil?
"Murdoc!" she squealed as she jumped up to him. "What?" he groaned. "Theres some weird monster that lives down in the engine room closet!" she exclaimed. "What? Who? The Cyborg?" he chuckled. "Cyborg?" she repeated. "It looked just like me! It looked scary too" she stammered on. "Care to explain?" she said crossing her arms. Murdoc sighed. "Well, you see, when you left I made a cyborg robot replica of you, to sort of…'take your place'. I thought you had left forever so I needed someone, or 'something' to fill in for you. So I created the Cyborg Noodle. She is also used as a personal body guard." "So, you replaced me?" she said looking into Murdoc's eyes, a look that she had only given him, maybe once, and it made him feel as if he had betean a dog. "Well not like that, just to, err, 'help' me while you weren't here" he scratched the back of his head. "oh, okay, I understand" she said putting her arms down and sighing.
Later that day, while Noodle was in her room, doing whatever it is Noodles do, she became a little curious. She hopped up out of her bed and sprung off to the elevator. She pressed the button that took her down to the engine room. And im sure you already know what she is going for- she wants to see that Cyborg. She walked out of the elevator and down over to the closet. She slowly slipped inside the closet and stepped up close to the Cyborg. It was still slouched down, its eyes were hidden behind its fringe, just like Noodle's was. She looked around the Cyborg. "Where is your 'on' switch?" she said examining it everywhere. "Maybe if i-" she said unpluging all of the cords attached to the robot. The robot's head perched up, stiffly. Noodle watched in amazment. The Cyborg's body twitched and flickered with bolts of electricity. Then it stood there, stiff as a board. The Cyborg turned around and faced Noodle. Its eyes blinked a couple times, and so did Noodle's. Noodle slowly pulled and hand out torwards the Cyborg. As she went to place a hand on its cheek, it grabbed her hand and squeezed it tightly untill Noodle let out a yelp. She didn't know it could be so 'mean'. She ignored the fact that it almost just broke the bones in her hand, and she went back to examining the robot. It stood there without any motion as Noodle looked all around it's body. She was so facinated by this 'thing', this big piece of metal that was disguissed as a 14 year old Asian. Noodle got up to eye level with the Cyborg, their faces only a few inches apart. Noodle smiled at it, but it only stared, stright through Noodle.
"What can you do?" Noodle said still smiling at the thing. The Cyborg opened it mouth, and a little gun nose peered out. Noodle looked at it, then as she heard a weird noise coming from the cyborg, she quickly ducked before the gun shot out.
"No! Don't do that!" Noodle said taking cover. Surely someone had to of heard that loud bang. The Cyborg closed its mouth and again stared at Noodle, who was hiding behind some crates. The Cyborg slowly walked over to Noodle's 'hiding place' and stood next to her. Noodle just looked up and stared at it. It was such an interesting creature. Even thought it has harmed her twice now in only a few minutes.
A few minutes later after she had been 'playing' with the Cyborg, Murdoc had waltsed through the door. "Cyborg I need you to-" his sentence was cut off after he had seen Noodle. "What are you doing?" he peered down at Noodle. "Just 'playing' with Cyborg" she looked up at him. "She was not built for 'playing'. Now go away, me and Cyborg have something to do" he barked at her. "But i-" Noodle was booted out of the room by Cyborg. "Master says leave" said the Cyborg with her cold empty robot-like voice. Noodle knew that the Cyborg was under Murdoc's command so she had no choice but to leave unless she wanted to get whooped by that robot.
Noodle and 2D were in his room playing video games. "Dang how do you keep winning?" 2D said turning to Noodle. "I don't know. I guess im just really good" she said with a proud smile. "Heh, yea I guess so." She said smiling back. "Well its 10:00 pm, I think you should go to bed or something." 2D said stretching. "But im 20 years old now. I don't have to go when you say so" she said with a smirk.
Noodle sat in her bed, thinking. She was bored and couldn't sleep. And toss and turned. Something was just keeping her from sleeping. She had waited a long time to finally be back in a warm bed, and now that she had the chance, she didn't seem to take it. She sighed and slipped out of bed. The floor was cold and it was dark and quiet in her room. She wondered out into the hall in her little night gown. It was dark, she never knew how cold it could be at night on a beach. She mindlessly walked down the hall to the elevator. She got an idea. She was going to see that Cyborg again.
She went down to the engine room, which was much darker and quieter and colder than it was durring the daytime. She stumbled over a few wires laying around on the floor, it was so dark. She felt along the wall for the door knob to the closet. She felt the cold handle and twisted it and fell inside the dark closet. She could hardly see anything, but she could still she the figure of the Cyborg she was once again standing there connected to all of her cords. She slowly walked over and started unplugging all of the cords. All of a sudden the Cyborg started twitching with bolts of electricity, and she stood straight up and started beeping. She sounded like a fire alarm going off, it was so loud. Then she started screaming 'Intruder Intruder'. "No! No, Don't do that!" Noodle shouted covering her ears. But the Cyborg kept going. Noodle tried covering the Cyborg's mouth but that didn't work. "Shh! Hush!" she kept trying to find ways to get it to stop. She didn't want anyone thinking there was a burgler or something in the house, even though who could get here? But no matter, she had to find a way to get it to stop. Every second it seemed like the Cyborg kept getting louder, to try and get someones' attiention. Noodle started to panic.
"SHUT UP!" she screamed in Cyborg's face, still holding her hands up to her ears. And the Cyborg obeyed. The Cyborg instantly stopped. Noodle thought the Cyborg was only under Murdoc's command but, she guessed every now and then it would listen to someone else, maybe if you screamed it at her. Noodle sighed in relief. "Thank goodness" she said wiping off her forehead. She went over to the door and peeked outside, left to right, to see if anyone was around or disturbed. But luckily no one had came. She walked back over to the Cyborg who stood their motionless, as if waiting for a command. From where it was so dark, Noodle could see it's eyes shining out light. Noodle sat down on the cold floor with her legs crossed. "Uhm…Sit?" Noodle said gesturing a hand out on a spot on the floor in front of the Cyborg. The Cyborg did as she was told, and mimiced how Noodle was sitting too. Noodle smiled. She enver had anyone obey here before. "Do you have a name?" Noodle got closer to the Cyborg in curiousity. "Noodle." The Cyborg said blankly. "Oh" Noodle said in a bit of dissapointment. Well what did she expect? It was a replica of her. "uhm…Do you know who I am?" "No" was all it said in reply. "I'm Noodle" she said with a smile. "Noodle" it repeated. "Mmm-Hmm" she nodded very happily. Noodle was very excited to be communicating with it for the first time. Although it was short with words. "How often do you get out? I mean, out of this closet" Noodle went on. "When master needs assistance." "Oh um, Okay, would 'Master' be Murdoc by any chance?" "Yes" "I thought so." Noodle kept trying to think of more conversation. "So is this closet like your bedroom?" "I guess you could call it a 'bedroom'." This was the longest, normal-person sounding sentence she has said so far. "What do you do exactly?" said Noodle curiously. "I protect master, plastic beach, and provide anything for master, any desire of his" the Cyborg blinked blankly. "What do you do for fun?" said Noodle giving her an anxious look. The Cyborg didn't know exactly what to say. She had never had any 'fun'. She knew what 'fun' was, but never experianced it. "Have you ever had 'fun'?" the Cyborg still stayed silent. "Come with me" Noodle said smiling and grabbing the Cyborg by the hand. Noodle tried running, but the Cyborg stayed at it's own walking pace, and the Cyborg was oddly very strong and wasn't going to budge no matter how hard she pulled.
It took longer than normal to get back to Noodle's room. But finally they arrived to her door. They both quietly slipped into her bedroom, and Noodle switched on a little lamp. She thought since it was late at night there was no need for so much light. Cyborg just stood in the middle of the room motionless with a blank stare. "This is my radio helmet from when I was 10 years old" she said holding up the melmet to Cyborg. But still motionless staring straight past her. "This is my mask" she said holding up the mask to her. Still motionless. "This is my tomochatchi pet from when I was 10 too" she said showing the little toy to her. Motionless. "These are all of my Richie Sambora and Johnny Thunders' records" she said with a proud smile. "I love them so much" she added. Noodle even showed the Cyborg her guitars and other instruments that she had a great skill for. She even brought up all of her video games which she enjoyed playing so much too.
Noodle sat down on her bed, dragging Cyborg with her. Noodle practicly jumped onto her bed, but the Cyborg was a bit more graceful with her sitting. "You're a good listener, you know that?" Noodle said with a friendly smile. Cyborg remained silent. Noodle knew something was missing. Only if she would communicate more, or at least look her in the eyes when she was talking. Noodle sighed. "Do you like video games?" Noodle said, and at that Cyborg actualy looked Noodle in the eyes. "I don't know." She said blankly. With a smile, Noodle slipped down off her bed and went over to her Xbox and slipped in some 2 player fighting game. She took one controller and handed the other to Cyborg. "okay, that button is to hit, that one to kick, that one to dodge, and all of these buttons can make combos-" Noodle had to explain every detail on how to play the game for Cyborg. Cyborg was very good at listening, she could memorize everything she said, as Cyborg was built for following very spicific rules and many things. If she was built to be a body guard, she was going to have to be built tough and very good at fighting and following orders. Noodle giggled as her and Cyborg beat the crap out of each other through animated characters on a TV screen. Cyborg just sat there pressing buttons, showing no emotion. "Yes! I won!" Noodle shouted in triumph dropping her controller and throwing her arms into the air. Cyborg just dropped her remote onto the floor and stood up. She looked down at the controller and directed her hand at it, her hand dissapeared and a gun came out- BANG! She blew the controller up into tiny pieces with one bullet from her arm. "Hey! Don't do that!" Said Noodle, slighty scared to raise her voice at it. Cyborg turned her head slowly at her, and stared. Noodle was a bit scared that it might punch her or something, but the Cyborg took back in it's gun and a hand took its place again. "Uhm…Maybe Video Games aren't really for you" Noodle said looking around the room for something else they could do. "Hey! I know! Guitar!" she said grabbing her guitar and handing it to Cyborg. "Show me what you can do" she said with an egear smile. She was interested to see how well it could play. The Cyborg put the guitar band around her shoulder and put the neck of the guitar is one hand and used the other to pick the strings. A nice little tune came from the guitar as she played it. Noodle giggled and did a little 'arm and torso' dance as she sat down and listened. The Cyborg just stood there and played. Noodle wished that she would laugh and dance with her. But she was still having fun with this big emotionless piece of metal and wires.
When Cyborg was finished with her little melody, Noodle giggled some more and clapped excitedly. Cyborg took the guitar off of herself and handed it to Noodle. "Okay my turn!" she said standing up, switching places with the Cyborg, and Cyborg sat down on the floor as Noodle did with her legs crossed and looked up at Noodle, with that blank emotionless stare that she seemed to always give her. Noodle couldn't wait to start playing again. She quickly put it on and started picking at the strings. Noodle was having so much fun, she liked having an 'audience'. She twirled around and shook her hips a little. She even hummed a little to match the tune of the guitar's sound.
When Noodle was done with her melody, Cyborg thought that since Noodle clapped she should too. But her's wasn't as 'happy' as Noodle's. "Arigato" Noodle said with a little curtsey. Noodle perched her guitar back up against the wall where it once was before they had started playing with it.
"Do you like to dance?" she said turning back to Cyborg. She only shrugged. With a big grin across her face, she went over to her boom-box and placed in a CD. A smooth techno song came on, and Noodle started moving her body to the music. But Cyborg stood there motionless, like she always does. "Come on! Dance!" said Noodle giggling and bouncing around. The Cyborg slowly started to move her hips around. "That's right! Keep going!" said Noodle encouragingly. One step at a time, the Cyborg mimiced every move Noodle did, waving her arms around, moving her feet and legs all around, shaking her hips, pumping her fists, and shaking her head. But something was missing. She was a good dancer, but, her dancing didn't see, 'lively'. She wouldn't smile, or talk, or even laugh. Noodle still seemed to be having a blast. She then grabbed Cyborg's hands and danced with her. Noodle had a huge grin across her face, but Cyborg just blankly stared at her.
Noodle went over to the Boom-box and turned it off with a press of a button. "That was so much fun!" she panted. Cyborg stood there, motionless, she didn't seem to be tired after all that dancing like Noodle was. Noodle looked over at the clock. "Geez, its 12:00 AM I think we should go to bed now." Noodle said walking over to her bed. The Cyborg then stood there and tilted it's head down. "What are you doing?" Noodle said sitting up off her bed. The Cyborg looked back up, "Sleeping". "Sleeping? Standing? Uncomfertable." She said getting up and taking Cyborg's hand. "People are supposed to sleep in 'beds'" said Noodle guiading her to the bed. "But im not a 'person'. I am not 'human' like you" said Cyborg sitting up on the bed. "Well true, but-" she couldn't think of the right thing to say to that, so she just simply laid down, knowing that the Cyborg would copy her, which she did. Noodle curled up on one side with her back facing the Cyborg, and the Cyborg laid there flat on her back arms to her sides and legs together. "Sweet drea- I mean uh, good-night" Noodle said turning off the little lamp that was next to her bed. "'Good-night'" she copied Noodle's words. She thought that since Noodle did it, it was something 'proper' to do at that time. Noodle closed her eyes and fell asleep, and Cyborg shut off and charged herself.
"Hey 2D have you seen Cyborg anywhere?" said Murdoc looking around everywhere. "Nope not at all" replied 2D. "Damn, where did that piece of scrap metal run off to?" Murdoc went down to Noodle's room. He heard giggling but that wasn't anything out of the ordinary. He opened the door and walked inside. "Hey Noodle have you- WHAT THE BLOODY HELL IS THIS!" "Oh, Hello Murdoc" Noodle said turning around to Murdoc with a smile. "Hello Master" said Cyborg who moved to the side out from behind Noodle. Noodle had covered her in pretty pink blush, glittery blue eye shadow, she had on mascara which made her eye-lashes long and black, and shiney pink lip stick, and her hair was put into multipul pony tails around her head. Noodle thought it looked cute but Murdoc thought it was treturous. "What have you done!" Said Murdoc picking up Cyborg and throwing her over his shoulder. "I was just playing 'make-overs' with Cyborg" she said putting her head down. "What did I say? You DO NOT 'play' with my Cyborg. You're 20 years old now, you need to grow up a little. Why don't you go bother 2D or something?" he scolded her. Noodle never liked being yelled at. And the way Murdoc did it always hurt her deep. It was like a father yelling at his daughter for doing wrong. And a lot of you know what that is like. "We need to get all of this CRAP off of you, lets go Cyborg" said Murdoc, martching out of the room with the motionless robot hanging over his shoulder, cursing under his breathe. "Bye-bye Cyborg" said Noodle waving her hand 'bye' to Cyborg with a dissapointed frown. The Cyborg didn't wave back, just slumbed over Murdoc's shoulder, and they were gone out of her room.
Noodle sighed and went over to her bed and sat down, with her legs crossed, her elbows resting on her knees, and her head perched on her hands. "Meanie Murdoc" she huffed.
She got bored so she decided to go down to 2D's room. "Hey 2D" she said peeking in the door. 2D was on his bed shaking like a leaf. "Whats the matter?" Noodle said walking into his room. "T-The Whale!" "What?" "The WHALE!" 2D said taking cover under his blanket. "It's going to get me!" and said shivering like something fierce. Noodle tried not to laugh, because he was seriously scared of those darn whales. She got on top of his bed and pulled the curtains over the window so the whale was out of sight. "What whale? I don't see a whale" she said turning to 2D with a comforting smile. 2D perched up out from under his blanket. "Phew! I sure he was going to get me". Noodle giggled a little and sat down on 2D's bed next to him.
"got any 3's?" asked 2D looking up from his cards at Noodle with a hopefull look. "Go fish" said Noodle with a mischivious smile. "Gosh darn it" he said picking up a card and adding it to his 'collection'. "Got any 5's?" ask Noodle. 2D sighed and reluctantly gave her his 5 card. "That's it! I win!" she said throwing down her last 2 cards. "Is there anything you can't beat me at?" 2D sighed. "Maybe…but probably not" she giggled. "Hmph" 2D crossed his arms. "Awe, come on, don't be a sore loser" she said putting an arm over his shoulder and smiling. 2D couldn't help but smile again. 2D and Noodle were best friends, and even though she beat him at everything they did and played, he still loved playing games with her all the time. 2D put his arm around Noodle and pulled her down and ruffled up her hair. They shared fits of laughing and joking. They eventualy stopped playing and laughing and they had a chance to clam down. "Hey 2D…" "Yeah?" "…Why is Murdoc so grumpy? Why can't he have fun like us?" "Im not sure, I guess he just has a lot of work to do" "He never takes vacations?" "Well maybe but, I guess he just likes to take things seriously" "pfft, he doesn't take things seriously, well he does, but every now and then" " I don't know then, maybe its just his nature to be a grouch" "That's too bad, he should have some fun sometime". "2D…" "yes?" "Why does he get angry when I play with Cyborg" "She isn't a toy" "well yeah but, he doesn't even like me talking to it" "maybe he's just selfish" "maybe…but there has to be a better reason" "I don't know if I can tell you the answer. He got mad at me for messing with it too but, well, hes always yelling at me, but yeah I guess youre right if he got mad at you." Noodle sighed. "Well Murdoc doesn't like people messing with his things, you know that." "Yeah I know…but this is a Cyborg. A Robot. He shouldn't just keep her locked up in a closet all day" "Well she doesn't have any feelings, she is just a robot." "Well I still think it isn't fair to not let me see her". 2D sighed this time. "Maybe he doesn't want you treating it like some play toy? Maybe he doesn't wanting you getting 'attached' to it?" "I don't know, I think ill just go ask him". Before 2D could stop her, she had already walked out of the room.
"Murdoc?" she called for him as she had walked down the last few steps to the secret room. "What? I'm very busy" he groaned. "Murdoc…Why don't you like Cyborg being 'social'?" "Because she doesn't need to be social. She was made for working." Murdoc was fumbling through a book, he didn't seem to be paying any mind to Noodle. "Where is she anyway?" said Noodle looking around the room. And at that moment, Cyborg came down the stairs holding a big box, filled with nothing but rum. "I have your rum, Master." She said bringing the box of rums up to him. Noodle glared at Murdoc crossing her arms and tapping her foot. "I thought she was made for working". "Oh, hush up! She is working" he growled. "And besides, you were covering her up in make-up as if she was a doll or something". "But…but…" Noodle tried to say something, but Murdoc had a point. Noodle accepted defeat and walked back up the stairs. "I will see Cyborg, I don't care what he says" she spoke to herself walking back to her room.
