Wow! You guys love this story I'm so happy! Sorry if I left it a cliff hanger there I wanted to go on, but my dad wanted the computer so ugh! Anyway here's chapter 3!

PS: It's dangerously close on who the mystery thing is so DUN DUN DUN!

Creak………creak…..creak……

The two band members crept steadily on the stairs with Noodle leading the way holding the torch, or flashlight to shine through the darkness, and 2D felt feelings between safe that the girl who fought like she could take on Bruce Lee was there, and regret and undeniable fear dropping on him like deadweight

Creak...creak...creak...

Part of him wanted to turn back, to tell Noodle to forget investigating on whatever made that noise upstairs and just carrying on to find the emergancy power and there would be light again once more, but knowing her, she'd want to double check on the monkey since he sometimes wandered around at night when not hanging around in Noodle's room.

creak...creak...creak...

Those stairs they were climbing seemed to carry on, 2D noticed, but it could be the dark and the dimness of the flashlight that was causing the illusion of neverending stairs, yeah that was it, that wasit

"2D you're kinda holding my shoulder a little tight there". 2D snapped outta his deep thinking and saw that he was clawing the girl's shoulder as though attempting to cut off circulation. "Sorry" he snatched his arm away flushing a bit and they continued till they got to the 2nd floor and it led to Russel's room (note I forgot where his room was, but let's just say it's here for now).

creak...creak...clink,clikk,clink.

2D's ears twitched at the last noise."Noodle, did you hear...?" He moved his torchlight to Noodle, but she wasn't there!

She was there a second ago! he screamed in his mind feeling his heart ready to burst outta his chest! He barely looked down for a second listening to the footsteps behind him, and...

Creak...creak...clink,clink,clink, clink

that noise again! He didn't want to look back, and was too afraid to look for Noodle so the first thing that came to mind was run down the stairs. He ran down that flight of stairs with the light of his torch dim,yet bright enough for him to find the room clearer, and found the recording studio and slammed the door bedind him,leaned on it with a rush of feeling tired. Being scared can do that to you after that adrenaline rush, he got that feeling all the time when he was being chased down by Murdoc twice a day.

But what about Noodle? It took him long enough to realize how stupid he was, so Goddamn stupid! He was so worried about himself he forgot about her life, she was the one who's life was at stake here! What if she was scared, or couldn't find whatever caused that noise, oh he couldn't sit there cursing at himself playing the "What if" game, he had to go up there and find her, and..

CLICK

the door was locked.The door was locked.

He jiggled the handle, but it wouldn't open, he banged the door, but all that did was tire him out. he started to panic There's gotta be another way out, he thought desperatetly there's got to. He saw the door on the other side and banged into some of Murcoc's bases (he's gonna kill me!) and zigged zagged through the mike room and tried that door, CLICK. even that one was locked. No. This can't be. He was trapped.

He needed another way out to make sure Noodle was still alive, for he had a terrible feeling that the noise upstairs was a way to distract her, while SHE, trapped him in this room. NO! he slapped himself in the face angrily, refusing to believe it. There's gotta be another way out. That's when he turned around, he nearly bumped into her...

2D gasped out loud at the demonic creature standing before him with that inhuman, hungry smile stretching her face, revealing white, dripping teeth that were long like toothpicks, yet thick like steel. Her cold, grey eyes like a snake were on him like she caught her prey cornered, and she did. her skin was greengrey, and slippery, her thin bony wrists and sharp claws that were 2 feet long draped on her side and her nose was thin the nostrils like slits, her lips were deadly black and shining with venomous thirst as she breathed heavily in the darkness in the torche's glare.

"hello sssssssssstuart" She rasped with a cold humoruous smile.

2D fell backwards on the floor causing some instruments to fall on him as he screamed in horror watching the girl cackling at him as though finding it amusing, deadly amusing...

End...I got it stuck on this Italic thing sorry...But again I had to leave it a cliff hanger, please review if you dare!
