This goes for Ch. 5 as well…forgot to put one on that heh heh

Noodle looked up quickly. A zombie had gotten into the middle of the road. She slammed on the breaks and they were both flung forward.

"'ow the 'ELL did it get out 'ere?" screamed 2D.

Noodle blinked. If it was one of the zombies from their landfill…oh man, this couldn't be good.

"How are we going to get it back?" asked Noodle.

This time 2D blinked, "erm….we aren't?"

"Well, we can't have it wandering the streets!" exclaimed Noodle.

"Oh, right," said 2D, "Les' jus' put it in the car and let is kill us!"

"Don't be a jackass," muttered Noodle, obviously perturbed by the new problem they faced.

"I say…that…," 2D was thinking out loud, "we tell Russ, 'e'll come, and kill the bloody bastard!"

"Plan solved," said Noodle, "or I could….you know...run it over right now."

They laughed. Until last year they had no idea you could actually kill a zombie, a living dead thing. Murdoc solved that mystery, while drunk, with a car, in the middle of the night. He came back laughing hysterically.

"I killed it!" he cried over and over again.

Everyone was sitting around him in the living room, looking at each other worriedly.

"Killed what?" asked Russel.

"Zombie!" barked Murdoc before he threw up the contents of his stomach.

None of them really believed him until Russel and 2D went out into the landfill and found, as Murdoc said, a dead…well, no longer active, zombie.

Noodle smiled at the memory of the two coming back so happy that the news was true.

"Ok," said Noodle, putting the car into reverse.

2D gave her a confused look. "They zombie's t'at way, luv…"

"I know, I know," said Noodle calmly. "I want to get some speed first and really knock it over…" she grinned.

"Uh-oh…" said 2D as he grabbed onto the edges of his seat.

Noodle shifted the car back into drive and stepped on the gas peddle as hard as she could and sped down the street until…

THA-THUMP!

2D banged his head on the top of the car, Noodle squealed with delight and the exciting feeling of adrenaline running through her. Finally she slammed on the breaks and the car screeched to yet another halt.

"Jesus Christ!" screamed 2D, "you drivin' like Muds!"

Noodle leaned back and laughed, "ah, thank you 2D, thanks, I take that as a compliment."

Noodle popped the trunk to the car, turned off the engine, and walked around to the back to be greeted by little bits of zombie everywhere. Quickly she got to work, placing the "zombie pieces" into the trunk. Half way through the job, 2D came out to help her, and to add to the 'fun work' it started raining.

"Ah, dammit!" cursed Noodle. "I hate the rain!"

"Get back in the car, luv," said 2D stuffing an arm into the trunk, "I gots the res.'"

"Thank you 2D-san!" cried Noodle, bounding over to him and giving him a hug.

2D looked down at her and smiled. He pulled her a little closer and ran his hands through her hair. She really was getting pretty, especially for fifteen. True, she was still short, a foot shorter than him, or around that, or something. He shook his head. Noodle, Noodle, Noodle….what were they going to do with her? They couldn't really do anything for now…well, the world tour and all, but after that, what? Were they going to go their separate ways again? 2D didn't think he could stand it. He felt like he was close to all the band members, but Noodle was special to him. Murdoc had ran up to meet with him while Noodle was waiting down in the car park singing, and told him everything, well, almost.

"The kid likes you," he said bluntly.

2D laughed, "Noodle? Nahhh."

"Tha's what I thought too," said Murdoc, "but she's serious….I tried to talk her out of it too, but knowin' tha' basket case…"

2D shook his head. Noodle was stirring up all this emotional turmoil lately. What was going on with her? And he was so much older than her too. What did she want with someone so old compared to her?

But standing here right now, he could tell, Noodle was special. She was going to grow to be a wonderful and lovely lady. He knew, deep down, that he was going to develop feelings for her too at some point, but, he didn't know. She was fifteen, it sounded so young to him. Fifteen…he could hardly remember being that age.

"Get in the car," said 2D as he finally let go of her.

He quickly collected the rest of the zombie parts, stuffed them into the trunk, and forced his body back into the car. The rest of the ride there was awkward. The swish-swoosh of the wipers forcing the rain off the windshield.

Yes, 2D thought, yes, let's give it some time…see what happens.

A.N: helloo everyone. Thank you for all the support and no worries, story isn't done yet. I want to finish this one up though, I have from here to the ending in mind. Then I want to start a new one…this is so addicting…

Anyway, thanks for the R&R, I feel so loved!
