Another update! Whoo! Sorry, again that this took so long. Haven't been up for the mood to write. Well, I keep going back and forth to my writing mood. But manage to finish this chapter at least. Like always, I hope you all love it, peeps.


The room fell silent when Noodle's words were spoken. Noodle kept her head down, scared to witness what the expressions were on the bandmates' faces. She had finally had the courage to tell them what was going on and seemed a little happy about it. Maybe because of the stress she was holding for since the beginning of this week and now, finally being able to relax. But she didn't have the courage to look at them. With all the questions they would ask her, but she knew it was going to happen, one way or another.

Heaving a ragged breath, Noodle slowly looked up to see the eyes of 2D, Murdoc, and Russell. They all stared at her with looks of confusion and concern.

The room was silent for about thirty minutes until Russell broke the silence.

"What, babygirl?..."

Noodle closed her eyes and repeated what she said again. "I'm going to die this Friday."

This made all three of the men to think what would cause Noodle to think this. Did someone threatened her? This thought made Murdoc twitch.

"What does this bloke look like?" Murdoc asked, clenching his sharp teeth together. He did care for Noodle. She was the one human being that he gave a damn, and if someone was threatening her life, he would find them and have a nice, long 'chat'.

Noodle looked at Murdoc with a confused expression.

"What? Nobody has threatened to kill me, if that's what your asking."

Murdoc relaxed a bit, but it only brought more confusion into the mix.

Russell had a thought, a horrible thought. What if she thought of...

"Are you thinkin' 'bout killing yourself?" Russell asked quietly. How he said it made Noodle's heart break, and triggered her to tear up again.

"No." Noodle placed her head in her hands, shaking. "Oh god, no."

"Then tell us why you think your going to die?" Russell was desperate to know.

Noodle had manage to calm herself down. "I don't think it. I know it." She shrugged a little, laughing out a bit. Her shaking became less, but she began to have this faraway look, like she was trying to concentrate on something.

"Like I know that there will be markings. Weird ones."

All three men looked at each other. "Markings?"

Noodle nodded, still having the faraway look. "And nightmares will become reality. And..." Noodle shook her head, breaking out of the trance. "I-I don't know." She placed her head in her hands, "I'm just so tired."

Russell sighed, rubbing her back, trying to reassure her. "Noodle, look at me."

Noodle shook her head, not wanting to look at anyone in the room, but she felt a large hand gently grip her chin to look up, and she met the eyes of Russell. Her tears showing again.

"Nothing and nobody is going to kill you. We all will make sure of that." He smiled.

Noodle wiped the stained tears and smiled back a little. But she knew better. She knew they couldn't help her, but it made her feel good that they all would protect her. "I just want to go to sleep."

Russell nodded and got up, and tucked Noodle into bed. He gave her a kiss on the forehead, and both him and Murdoc walked out of the room.

2D stayed put, trying to take everything in. Markings? Nightmares becoming reality? It was so much to take in all at once, and he felt a migraine coming in. Noodle rolled over on her side, slightly crying, gripping the bedsheets tighter to her. "Noods?"

"Hmm?"

2D bit his bottom lip, walking over to where Noodle lay and sitting down on the edge of the bed. "Wot yew mean 'bout nigh'mares coming alive?"

Noodle sighed and rolled over on her side to face him, her teary eyes meeting his black ones. "I don't know what I meant by that. Just crazy things that I thought of. Nothing more." She smiled lightly. "It's all in my head."

"Oh." Was all he could respond. He knew it was late, and that he should leave her to sleep, but with what she was saying about her dying and everything...he didn't want to leave her alone. While he was busy thinking, Noodle fell asleep. Her breathing was off, like she was taking short breaths, and it was going quick. He frowned. She wasn't herself anymore, and it bothered him. He remember when she was full of life; laughing and smiling like no tomorrow. But now seeing her talking about her death tomorrow frightened him. Suddenly, the bed started shaking a little and he looked around to see what would cause it to shake, but found nothing. 2D looked over at Noodle and saw that she had started crying again; her heavy breathing and crying making the bed shake.

2D got himself fully on the bed, and pulled Noodle close to him. She wrapped her arms around him and cried; her tears staining his shirt. He held her for a while, before feeling her breathing go slow. 2D leaned back and looked down at her, and saw that she had cried herself to sleep. Sighing, he laid down and made himself and her comfortable. Tomorrow was the day Noodle said she would die. The day that she would disappear forever, and leaving him in the world without her in it. This made him hold her tighter. Maybe it was just her imagination or something. He did hear her say it was all in her head, so maybe it was something that wasn't going to happen at all.

Closing his eyes, he began to fall asleep, cradling Noodle in his arms.


Again, I feel like this could've been better. I just didn't like the talking scene for some reason :/. But I finally got this chapter up. That means that there is only one chapter left...

And Cooliochick... I know that your knowing what I said about the markings and dreams. *Snickers*

Hopefully, I will have the last chapter up soon. Hope you peeps like this! And one more thing. Thank you for everyone that has read and reviewed this story! I'm glad you all liked it! Makes me feel giddy when I see reviews. *Smiles brightly*
