Chapter Four- Lira's Marvelous Idea
The band looked at her, stunned that Lira was even paying attention to the song, let alone call it crap and waltz out of the studio.
"Well fo' star'ers, maybe you could start it off with a evil laugh, Murdoc's o'course, and then start playing the song. Then, Del comes out of Russel's hat n' starts rappin' n' Murdoc runs away since gorillas are comin' after 'im. Tha's Del's doin' obviously. At tha' end, Noodle kicks ther' ass n' the song ends," Lira stated and started to play with one of the antennas coming from Noodle's helmet.
2-D drooled and shook his end, "Tha's wicked Lira, how'd you cum up with tha'?"
Lira shrugged, "Ice cream?" She laughed.
Murdoc looked at her helplessly, "WHY DO I 'AVE TO BE CHASED BY BLO'Y GORILLA THINGS! WHY CAN'T IT BE STU-POT!" Murdoc pointed to 2-D with a fierce look in his eye that made 2-D shrink in his seat in fear.
Lira smirked, "'Cuz it's mo' 'ilarious with you runnin' than 'im. 'nuff said, let's go get sumthin' to eat, I'm starvin'!"
Thunder rolled, rain poured down on Kong Studios. A relentless storm that lasted the night plagued Lira with no sleep. She tossed and turned on the floor in Noodle's room but just couldn't get comfortable. She sighed and sat up on the mat and pulled her pants on and smoothed out her tank top.
Rubbing her eyes, she opened the door and made her way to the kitchen, maybe a little water or something would help her sleep. Better yet milk, she heard from mothers that that helped, a glass of milk before bedtime, and some biscuits (cookies). She smiled; it had been so long since she one. Lira opened the fridge door and placed her hand over her mouth to stifle a shriek. Inside lingered a brain, a severed finger, a cucumber, an eyeball, some fruits towards the back, some ham and beef, and an intestine? (AN: What IS that? O.0)
She closed the door and panted slightly, 'Note to Lir', don't eva' go in ther' again!' She looked up to see Russel come in and grab a glass and filled it with sink water.
"You can't sleep Lir'? Sorry 'bout tha' fridge, freaky eh?" He smiled and offered the glass to her.
She grinned gratefully and took the glass and drained it in one gulp, she gasped and looked at Russel and blushed.
Russel chuckled, "I'm gonna go back t' m' room, you can stay here if ya want. Later." He waved and yawned, clutching a teddy bear with one eye missing. Lira waved back to him and sat down coughing slightly. She looked out towards the landfill and watched the lightening making the landfill flash like a scene in one of 2-D's zombie movies. Shuddering and rubbing her hands frivolously up and down on her shoulders; she put her head to the table and closed her eyes, drifting off to sleep…
Lira dreamt of her being in the Gorillaz instead of Murdoc, getting all the glory while he was lurking in the backround. She also got her 2-D, and when they finally kissed…she felt someone shake her.
A cheerful Noodle waked Lira with green tea in her hands, waving at her with a large grin etched upon her face. Lira yawned and took the tea gratefully, hoping that she wasn't blushing from her dream. She sipped calmly and looked around. 2-D wasn't up yet, neither was Murdoc, it was only Russel, Noodle, and herself.
After Lira finished sipping, Noodle announced, " Lira-Sama nomu! Lira-sama ureshii, hai-deska?" (Lira gulped! Lira's happy, right?)
Lira shook her head slowly. Noodle returned the gesture with a puzzled look, "Nani Lira-sama?" (What Lira?)
"Lira-sama, uhh… iye ureshii, Lira-sama inki-na," and placed her mug down and looked at her legs. "I feel like I'm takin' advantage of you, m'sorry…I think I should leave. Also, I've done things that I know I shouldn't have..." (Lira's not happy, Lira's dreary.) She pushed her chair in and got up to leave.
Noodle looked at her and spit out most of her tea, Russel looked at her and sighed. He came over, placed his right hand gently over her shoulder and said, "Nah Lira, you're da best man, you came up wit' a lota stuff fo' da band, Murdoc'll be mad if ya leave now. N' besides, ya make 'D feel happy. You did nothin' man, what'cho takin' 'bout?"
Lira blushed madly and looked down. It was true, he wasn't taking as many painkillers with Lira around and he did seem more cheerful but still, she wasn't just here for Murdoc. Noodle patted her on the back saying, " Kudaranai koto wo iwanaide, Lira-sama." (Don't talk rubbish, Lira.) She hugged her, "2-D-kun taikutsu, demo Lira-sama yasume yorokobu 2-D-kun." (2-D's always down, you relax him with happiness Lira.)
Lira smiled but frowned soon afterwards, "But one thing, I wan' m' own room-"
2-D yawned and entered unexpectingly, "Theres'a room next t' Noodle, 'ow 'bout ther'. Noodle n' Rus' can go n' shop fo' stuff while you stay wit' us fo' tha' Clint Eastwood video." He stretched his arms a little and sat stood next to Lira.
Noodle jumped up and took Russels hand as they walked out of the room. Noodle smiled mischievously, she had a few ideas for Lira's room and she was going to like it, now all she needed was Alan the Interpreter to translate her sayings so Russel could understand. They didn't need him much since Lira understood.
As they left Lira leaned her neck from side to side making cracking noises and moaning slightly, sleeping with your head on a table was not fun or comfortable.
"So 'D did ya 'ear the conversation?" Lira asked with a crack from her neck.
"Eh, sum of it, it wen' mos'ly in one ear n' out the otha'," 2-D laughed as Lira cracked her neck sharply and swore rubbing it. "Why ya ask Lira-love?"
"Oh nuthin', jus' curious is'all. Jus' curious…"
O.O What was Lira talking about that something that she did? What do you mean she isn't just here to visit Murdoc? FORESHADOWING! Whoops, I'm not supposed to point out that I'm foreshadowing... .;;; I'm smart...
