CH 7 Get the Cruel Shoeshine!
Luna was sitting on mat in her room. The floor was covered with mauve colored shag carpets. There were small windows on the wall, almost on the ceiling. Small beams of light shot through the murky air. Luna sighed and laid down. She suddenly felt a rush of wind, and saw a shadow on the wall. The shadow was of a girl. No, it was not Luna, it was a girl who was tall and thin, with hair at three different lengths. Luna shot up and the shadow disappeared. Just by instinct, she let out a big oh-my-god-it's-Chucky-with-a-big-old-knife scream.
2D was in the kitchen, making rice. The room was so silent, you could hear the rice softening (silence seems to be a reoccurring theme in this series). He put a wooden spoon in the pot and stirred. He pulled the spoon up to his mouth and blew it gently. He raised it to his lips to see if the rice was ready. The singer's lips opened and the spoon slowly went forward…
"AHHHHHHHHHH!" 2D jumped and let the wet Asian food launch into his face. He dropped the spoon and wiped his face with his tee and ran down to the room that Luna was in, the scream was too girly to have been Murdoc or Russel, and so it must have been Luna. 2D caught his breath and opened Luna's door slowly, not sure of what he might find. He poked his head in and saw Luna sitting up shaking.
"You okey, love?" he asked.
"I-is t-th-this p-pl-place haunt-t-ed?" she asked in a very shaky voice.
"Not with ghosts." 2D said. "I mean, zombies are always trying to get in." he walked over to the mat Luna was on, and crouched down to talk. "Look, your safer here than the orphanage you was in." he patted her on the head and gave her a hug to calm her down.
"You sure?" she asked, snuggling closer to him for safety.
"Positive." He replied giving her a quick squeeze. "Now get some sleep, unless you hungry, I made some rice."
"I am a bit hungry, now that you mention it…rice would be nice, thank you 2D." Luna said. 2D stood up and helped her up. "Can I look around a bit?"
"Um, sure." 2D said. "Jus', don' go in Noodle's room….we gotta clean it out." Luna nodded and headed down the corridor. The kitchen was right next to her room. "Ach! It smells really bad in here." Luna said pinching her nose closed. There was a big French stinky cheese wheel open on the table.
"It doesn't smell bad." 2D said. He got out two bowls from a cabinet. "Do ya want chopsticks Luna?"
"No thanks." Luna pulled out one of the chairs and sat down. 2D poured some of the rice from the pan into one bowl and gave it to Luna. Then he made a bowl for himself.
"Ow. Be careful, it's pretty hot." He said, sucking his burnt finger. Luna ate up her food and left the kitchen to explore her new home. The door next to her 'room' had a piece of paper taped on it. It read 'Noodle's Room' and then there was some Japanese scribbled on the bottom. Luna remembered she wasn't allowed in this room, but she really needed to go in. Maybe later Luna thought when 2D isn't here… Luna went down to the lobby and sat at a table she found. There was a little book on the table with 2D and Noodle's photo on the front. She took it up and read it.
