This girl is a slave driver! She won't let me stop typing so here's the next chapter X.X'
Enjoy~
It was dark and warm in the whales mouth, but there wasn't much light. Just that of the blow hole up above. 2D was tense as he looked around the mouth. Sharp teeth on one side and a large dark hole on the other.
"Wot 'ave I gotten meself inta?" He whimpered, the pain in his thigh momentarily forgotten. "Ehem, Noodle l-love? A'e you th-the'e dea'?" 2D's voice was small in the dense, humid air. He doubted she could hear him, even if she'd been sitting directly in front of him.
"Mm…?" He heard a tired sounding Noodle near the back of the mouth. "T..2D-san?" She crawled across the tongue towards the singer.
"Love? Dat y-yew?" He saw a flash of purple under in the light from the blow hole and grinned. Noodle scrambled over to him and hugged him relieved.
"I was sooo scared something was going to happen..." Noodle's voice shook a little and she sounded as though she had been crying.
"I's ok now, love. I'm he'e and I aint gonna let this bloody whale be tha death o' me. O' yew, fo' that matte'." 2D gave the young woman his best gap-toothed smile he could muster in the mouth of a whale that was more then likely swimming out to sea. "Now 'ow should we get outta he'e?"
They stood up in the rocking mouth, 2D ignoring the pain in his thigh and limping badly. They made their way over to the large teeth. They were shut tight, like an impenetrable gate. 2D sucked on his lip through the gap in his teeth as he stared at the size of the white razors. As high as his thigh and as wide as his forearm is long.
Noodle looked up at the man, admiring him for his heroic actions. He'd been yelled at by Russel, beaten by Murdoc, shot by Cyborg and swallowed by his worst fear, all for her. A dark red crossed her face and she turned quickly back to the teeth.
"Oi, wot's that?" 2D asked, pointing to something painful looking protruding from the gums. It was long and dark with a pointed end stuck in the swollen red gums. She looked at it closely and wrinkled her nose with a frown.
"Looks like it hurts…" Her hand brushed over it and the whale jerked, letting out a deep moan. "Oops! Sorry!" She yelped, putting her hands over her mouth.
"Hm… Maybe if I take dis out it'll let us out?" 2D reasoned, grabbing the black thorn-like object and pulling it out in a quick motion. He fell back against the tongue as the whale let out a long groan and began to move his tongue along the sore spot.
His teeth opened ever-so-slightly as he pressed on the spot, which Noodle noticed. "2D-san! When we touch the wound he opens his teeth!" She clapped slightly, suddenly not thinking about dying in the belly of the whale.
He ran to her side, waiting for the whale to move his tongue enough to get back to the wound. The moment there was room both leaned over and poked at it. The teeth opened again, more then last time but still not wide enough for them to fit through.
Each time they touched it the whale would moan louder and his teeth open wider until there was finally room enough for them to both climb through. His teeth closed, squishing them between them and his lips. 2D grabbed Noodle's hand and squeezed them both right through it's large silver lips.
They surfaced in front of the whale, scrambling onto its forehead and sitting between its eyes. Both breathed in the salty air gratefully, not even noticing how smelly the whales mouth was until they were back out.
Noodle hung upside down over the whale's eye, smiling apologetically at him. "I am sorry for the pain, whale, but we had to get out." She patted beside his eye and it replied with a throaty 'uuuuurgh'.
The singer beside her chuckled, looking down at his leg and sighing. He'd been trying to ignore the pain in his thigh, but the salty water on it made it begin burning again. Popping open his pain pills, he dropped a few in his mouth and swallowed them.
After a few moments the pain dulled considerably and he sat back up, glancing over at the purple-haired guitarist beside him. She was smiling and humming along with some random song under her breath.
"Well, shall we swim back to shore?" She offered, glancing at the twenty or so feet between the whale and the shore.
"Su'e." 2D took a deep breath, readying himself for reentering the water.
With a splash both were well on their way to the shore. The first thing they noticed when they stepped up into the ankle deep water was the Cyborg watching them with wide eyes from a few yards back on the beach.
She was pointing at them and trying to form a decent sentence, but instead it came out as a number of choked words. "How?" She forced out, unable to so much as turn to face them.
2D merely grinned and shrugged. Though he knew it wasn't going to be more then another minute before they would have to go straight back to the 'fight the cyborg' game. As of now, though, he was just happy to be back on the beach with Noodle by his side.
Well, Taylors gone now, but I decided to go ahead and finish this chapter. Yeah, again kinda crappy but I have a lot of other things on my mind right now so…
Some one should totally give me a Muds/Noodle one shot idea! I really want to write/draw them together, but I don't know what to write/draw…
Thanks for the reviews on the last chapter, btw! I got..er… four, I think, so lets see if we can make it five or above this time ;D
