Thunder roared and clashed the silence following a heavy splash of rain, it pounded harder than ever on the roof of Kong studios as though attempting to break through and drown them all. Despite being in a graveyard, the roof stood strong on all floors, but it didn't help out with the power outage and that was one thing Noodle and 2D didn't see coming.

One thought filled his mind with dread after hearing that horrible, inhuman shriek that he didn't want to believe…..she wanted…

NO! He shook the terrible thought from his head though it still taunted him with unbearable torture and not even medication could help him now as he stood there in the pitch-black darkness. He noticed after a few moments in the darkness and rain Noodle hadn't spoken since the lights died out on them and the scream. "N-Noodle?" he called in a shaky unstable small voice.

Silence.

He tried reaching out for her arm blindly but only grabbed air instead and realized that he was still holding Noodle's present in his hand quickly put it in his pocket and tried calling her again " Noodle?" his voice trembled with fear still reaching out blindly for her frantically.

Silence.

The only answer he got was the angry roar or thunder threatening to bring down more rain, and if Noodle answered his calls, he didn't hear them at all, or maybe………she got her.

STOP IT! He screamed in his mind pulling his blue hair and felt the tears swelling in his eyes at the thought of Noodle dead, lying on the floor motionless in a pool of blood, green eyes glassy… "NOODLE!" Thunder roared again and a shower of hail bombed the roof as though taunting his fear with cold delight. The sound of hissing nearby stopped him, and he went rigid and stopped breathing. No……..he whispered, cold sweat beading on his forehead and his mind turned dizzy and blank. "Sssssssss…….."

He couldn't move. He just couldn't move, he tried to move his legs, but they were stuck as though they were glued to the floor. "shhhhhh……" he heard a low chuckle behind him. It wasn't a humorous chuckle though, it sounded cold, emotionless, and hissed afterwards. The smell….the rotting smell of animal fur invaded the air, and 2D knew it well, it was fox and rabbit blood that she drained and by the stench it was fresh. She felt her dripping fangs, long curling fangs near his neck whispering "She will die!"

A light flashed in his eyes. "AAAHHHHHH!" The face in the light jumped at his shriek and grabbed his shoulder and shook him "2D-san!"

The singer stopped screaming as soon as he recognized the voice of the axe princess and her face in the flashlight became clearer though it was still draped in violet hair. Relief flooded through him and collapsed on his knees crying, hugging the girl's waist. Noodle looked surprised. "2D san" she raked a hand through his hair to soothingly "I'm sorry I didn't mean to scare you". 2D shook violently through his sobs hugging her waist tighter.

She hummed a soft melody to him, a melody that was so sweet and soothing that it calmed him down, easing his fears a little. He released her and stood up slowly and a bit clumsily. "Sorry for blubberin' on you like tha'. Noodle smiled in the flashlight's glow. "It's ok 2D" she patted his shoulder to comfort him. "I guess you couldn't hear me over the thunder that I was looking for some flashlights so we could find the emergency power" So that's why he couldn't find her. "Iss just I thought, I thought somfink got you" He left out the details on who he was talking about, but she'll just assume it was a zombie he was referring to. "I'm all right 2D san don't worry, no zombie is going to harm me, and the darkness can't harm you either" It's not the darkness I'm worried about, he thought grimly. "It's okay to be afraid 2D" she told him in a kind gentle voice handing him a spare flashlight. 2D smiled a bit feeing a little better as he turned his torch on (that's what they call them in London).

Noodle's wise beyond her years, Murdoc's voice rang in his head as a reminder, after all she was trained in martial arts and was part of some government project, for all he knew there was probably nothing in the world that could scare her not even…….. Something loud and heave crashed on the second floor interrupting once again, a perfect moment.

"Let's check it out" Noodle said and led the was upstairs wit 2D following behind her with the threat still haunting him with dread back in her room "she will DIE!"………………………

End of chapter 2

Sorry if that was a cliffhanger
