Phase 3

Noodle's POV

This was not like the last time. It was NOTHING like the last time. Before it had been fun, everyone smiling and being together, even my damn monkey was in it, smiling like mad (I wonder whatever happened to him). 2D had been wearing something that looked like a cross between a cowboy and top hat, but he was amused, you could tell just by looking at him. Murdoc had a grin on his face but not letting his long tongue out of his mouth, which I was grateful for. Russel didn't look happy but that's because I think he had realized I wasn't a little kid anymore that needed his protection. I had a smile so giant on my face, it was almost embarrassing now.

I put the precious photo down back to its spot on the desk, I had the exact same one in my bag of stuff. I arrived at Plastic Beach a week ago to find that disgusting excuse for a robot who had taken my place. She looked pretty life like but that's what was most gross about it. Murdoc had set to work to try and commemorate the time when we were all together once again and got a photographer out to point nemo.

"Noodle! Get down 'ere! Time ta take te damn picture!" Murdoc yelled from wherever the hell he was.

I walked into a sort of living room thing where a chair, carpet and small scale version of plastic beach was set up. A photo of Russel was in the background because we couldn't get him in the house. Personally I thought we should take the photo outside so that he could actually be in it. He had shrunken quite a bit after being denied super fast jellyfish for a week or so, but still too big to get through the doorway. Murdoc sauntered in the room with everyone filing behind. The cyborg me had a somewhat creepy grin on her face, as if she planned something horrible to happen while we took the picture. 2D wore a small yellow scarf around his neck a jacket similar to Cyborg's but with long sleeves and a sailor hat to put it all together, it looked kind of cute, in a dopey singer kind of way that made 2D, 2D.

I was to sit on the floor, Murdoc in the chair, 2D behind the chair, and Cyborg beside Murdoc. We took our positions and the cameraman directed Cyborg to bend over towards Murdoc more. Her smile grew and I shivered, thinking of what my look alike could be thinking about. She put her hands on her knees, accentuating what a small chest I once had. I kept staring at her in disgust only looking forward when the man was taking the picture. Cyborg smiled wider as if teasing me and boy did it piss me off. She shifted closer to Murdoc and it pushed me right off the edge.

"You stupid cyborg! Stop trying to use the non existent sex appeal you have because its creepy! It's the exact same appeal that I have so I would appreciate it if you didn't do it. And you!" I stood and spun to Murdoc who looked shocked at my sudden out burst, "why would you make a cyborg THAT realistic?! You made a little drum machine in place of Russel but no you needed an entirely new Noodle to replace the old one! One that will follow every single on of your sick orders! And speaking or Russel where is he?! Oh right, he's outside! Here's a crazy thought why don't we take the photo outside so that he can actually be in it instead of that cheap picture from 6 years ago?" I yelled in Murdoc's face. 2D was cowering behind the chair and I felt slightly bad, but it wasn't like I was yelling at him.

Cyborg stepped between me and the bassist, "master Murdoc does not wish to be spoken to like that. If you go any further I will have to resort to violence." She stated. "I must ask you to go-" I cut her off as a resounding smack echoed the room. I had punched her on the right side of the face with all my strength, making her stumble backwards.

"Let's get this straight, Cyborg. I am the original, a copy will never outweigh me. So don't tell me what to do," I towered over her and as I looked into her eyes I saw a flicker of emotion. Fear? Maybe, but I was not interested in that. When she didn't make another move I turned back to Murdoc. "Let's go outside." I beckoned the photographer to follow me and greeted Russel when I had exited the building. I told him he was going to be in the picture and he seemed happy which made me smile underneath my mask. 2D shed his jack edand scarf, leaving him in a striped shirt and his jeans. Murdoc went from a black shirt to a white shirt and Cyborg changed into pants.

The man with the camera insisted both me and Cyborg sit down with everyone behind us. She seemed ashamed, sporting a frown and tucking her head between her shoulders. I made sure my mask was pulled down and that Murdoc wasn't doing anything too retarded behind my back. He seemed very rigid as he stood there and 2D had a vacant expression on his face. Russel looked at everyone and pulled an eyebrow up in confusion. The picture was taken like that and I thought it was much better than the first.

The cameraman was sent back to the mainland and within a few days we got both versions of our 'family portrait'. I had them both, I had all our pictures together in order and I probably wouldn't forget this one. After my yelling Cyborg had taken to following me around, it was like she was trying to see what I thought of as appropriate and not. Murdoc drank a lot and was the same but who cares, I've been handling him like that for half of my life. Russel shrank enough to get into the building, which was a plus for him when it rained. 2D got moved out of the basement, my own request, and usually bunked in my room to keep him out of Murdoc's way. In the end I think all I had to do was actually tell them what was wrong so they could fix it. Families weren't supposed to be about bringing each other down. It was about lifting them up and helping them on their way. And that's why I considered every photo we had ever taken together, one of a family.

So what did yah think? It's based off of the two Plastic Beach photos of them all and the one from phase 2 just search 'Gorillaz family portrait' and you'll see all of them pretty quick

Read and review! :) love you guys
