Here is the 5th chapter. Hope you aren't board with it yet. I am sorry that it is short. I don't want to make them long though; you might not read them then. But, I hope you all read this. And I hope you enjoy this. I am sorry if any of it offends you. Too god damn sensitive. Sheesh. Well, any way, in this chapter, Noodle gets what she wants, almost. Read and find out more. Also, a short flash back of Noodle's past.
Chapter 5: Treasure Hunt
Noodle woke up early and walked down to Murdoc's Camper. She pounded on the door and yelled, "Have you thought of anything yet?" It had only been last night that Noodle had found out Bry's last name. Bry Fallen. Today was Sunday.
Murdoc got up clumsily and answered the door. He was only half dressed, wearing underwear, but that was it. Noodle was use to it, and unimpressed, "Did you think of a plan yet?"
Murdoc shook his head, moving out of the way so that she could come in, "Well, it has only been a night, but I have thought of something." He folded his arms, "First, we go and punch that bar tender into telling us were they live. Then, we go and run over that dad of hers. We will bring the girl back here, and she could be our own personal bar tender!" He looked pleased with his plans.
Noodle thought it over a few times then shook her head, "No. I thought of something better last night, and it won't get us put in jail." She thought. Then she took a breath, "What we can do is, first, we will wait for her at the park. When she comes, we will tell her that we are the famous band, The Gorillaz. Then, we invite her to come over."
Murdoc looked away, "One problem, she might not believe us, she might be afraid of all of us."
They were both silent for a second. Then, in unison they said, "2D will be the bait!" They both smiled.
Noodle looked at Murdoc, "We can have 2D sit on the swing set and wait for her. He will have to look sad. He will have to keep his head down. If she sees those eye sockets, she might freak!"
Murdoc thought. Then he pointed to Noodle, "What about you? Why don't you sit on the swing set?" He asked puzzled.
Noodle looked down, "I don't think I could. I think I would wimp out." She blushed somewhat.
Murdoc smiled, "Alright. But what do we do when she starts talking to 2D?"
Noodle smiled, "We'll have him ask her to come over and meet us. We will be waiting in the car. Or, better yet, behind a bush. I don't want anything to go wrong!"
Murdoc gave a smile of approval, then he said, "Okay, but not until latter. I have to change. 2D is making lyrics today. You should help him." Murdoc said mockingly.
Noodle stuck her tongue out, "What car are we taking?"
Murdoc laughed as he pushed Noodle out, "The jeep, of course!"
Noodle went back to her room. She wanted to clean before the girl came over. A few thoughts ran through her mind like, 'What if she isn't there tonight?' But for some odd reason, she knew that the girl, Bry would be there.
'Today is Sunday; she wouldn't be in a bar, would she? No! It's the day before school.' Noodle thought. Noodle took a breath, "What about school? She goes to school!" Noodle fell onto the ground. She thought about one time she was in school. There was a fire drill that day. All of the kids ran out of school, but Noodle. She had come in school late. Never signed in. So no one knew she was there. She pulled the fire alarm. She wouldn't get caught. She knew it. So, when everyone had left the building, Noodle ran down the hallways with spray paint! All of the walls, lockers, doors on the first floor, had a nice long, horizontal streak going down them. She never got caught. But the school was hell bent on finding out who did it. Good thing Noodle cut the wires for every single video cameras in the school. It was perfect. A perfect crime, and everyone talking about it. But you wouldn't be able to boast to people saying that you were that one who did it.
Noodle sighed again, "I wonder if you get good grades, and don't show off." She pictured Bry in her head. "I bet you are not a trouble maker." She got up slowly. She held her knees and then took a few deep breaths, "I will find a way." She said to no one in particular.
2D was down in the kitchen. He had dropped a drink and was now mopping it up. He glanced to the side. Noodle had entered the room. Quietly, and slowly. 2D gave a sigh, "Are you sure you want to go through with this?"
Noodle grabbed a drink. She took a sip of it, then she looked down at the drink, "We are going there tonight, and you are going to be sitting on the swing waiting for her."
2D stopped mopping, "I don't want to."
Noodle gave him a look. A look that seemed to pierce through the very flesh of 2D. 2D sighed, "Fine. When are we going to do it?"
"We leave a few minutes before 6:00. I want to get there early, so we can get there before she does." Then Noodle set down the drink and got a paper towel wet. She gave it to 2D, "It'll get sticky. And your mops not even wet!"
2D looked at the mop, "It's suppose to be wet?"
Noodle walked away.
Later that night, 5:30 to be exact, Noodle, Murdoc, and 2D got into the jeep. Murdoc was driving. He promised that he wouldn't drive crazy. They drove down the street. They parked the jeep a bit ways down from one of the parks entrances.
They got out and they heard no singing. They ran through the woods. They stopped every so often to make sure no one was there, or Bry had not come yet.
Noodle had Murdoc and herself crouch down low by the bush she was in last time. She made 2D swing on the swing set. But always look down. She didn't want 2D's holes being seen yet. They were all in their spots. 2D swung slowly, and held his head low.
An hour passed. Then, an hour and a half. Noodle grew worried. Murdoc grew impatient, and had gotten up to pee a few times. 2D looked tired.
Noodle was about to give up, when she herd the faint sound of a sniffle. The girl named Bry approached!
Noodle watched. Bry was not looking happy. She looked as if she had been crying. Noodle felt kind of bad. 2D had also noticed Bry arrive and was swinging slowly now.
The girl seemed to not notice him at first but she ended up noticing him when she got closer. She sat down on the swing set. She noticed that 2D was making little sniffling sounds. The girl whipped her face and said gently, "Bad day?"
2D heard the voice. For some reason he wanted to look at the girl. She had a voice that was lovely. He forgot what Noodle had told him, he picked up his head, "You could say that." He looked at the girl right in the eyes.
The girl was startled. She got up. 2D saw the scared look on the girl's face. (OK, it is dark out, and you see some guy, your next to him, he has holes where his eyes should be. I would be freaked a bit.)
2D got up, "Wait. What's wrong?" He followed the girl, out stretching his arms.
The girl backed up. She was scared. She couldn't break her eye contact with 2D for some reason.
2D gently said, "I'm not going to hurt you. Don't run away!"
The girl gave a gasp; she backed up fast, (somewhat running). She tripped. Her head slammed into something. She didn't move.
Noodle ran from the bushes. 2D was already kneeled down by the girl. Bry's eyes were closed, she was knocked out.
Murdoc walked over. Noodle shook the girl lightly. Bry didn't stir. 2D was holding up the girl's head. He removed his hand. There was a little bit of blood. He showed Noodle.
Noodle looked at Murdoc, "We have to get her home! Now!" She looked down at the girl again. Then girl looked peaceful. Then again, blood coming from the head, she looked deader.
-Look at us
We've fallen
And now we can't get up
Look at you,
Your Fallen
I will wake you up
I will be your angel
I will be your guide
The only thing you have to do,
Is follow what's inside.
-From Noodle
The end of chapter 5! Yes, 11:10 at night! I am so tired. I always go to bed early.
