Chapter 3
When 2D woke up, he was in his bed wearing nothing but some boxers. He somehow felt… violated. Almost as if he had been forced to do something. Then he remembered the day before; when Russel had taken Noodle to the mall. Murdoc had… done that to him? He couldn't be sure, as he had passed out, but that was the way it looked. He glanced at his clock, a natural reflex for him, compliments of his insomnia. 3:02am was flashed in front of him in large, red numbers. Groaning, he made his way out of bed, knowing not only that he wouldn't be able to get back to sleep even with his meds, but the advantage this would give him. Getting up before everyone else, especially Murdoc, was needed for self-preservation at this point.
He quickly threw on a pair of PJ pants, grabbed and outfit, and, most importantly to him, put his switch blade in his pocket. He ran to the bathroom to shower and hoped that no one was up. Opening the door the bathroom, he did a quick sweep over it with his every, deemed it safe, and walked in. "I can't live my life like this…" Once in the shower, the young vocalist realized that he wouldn't be rid of the memories that easily, though after scrubbing every inch of his body, he did feel much better.
Running back to his room and locking his door, he finally found some sense of security. But what to do next? He decided he needed to find all of the weapons in his room.
Popping several pills into his mouth, he decided to start with the piles of clothes. He picked up clothes little by little and started searching the pockets and shaking them out on the floor. Squealing with joy, 2D picked up a small pocket knife. "I thought I 'ad lost dis!" Noodle had given him this small, opal-encrusted trinket after they had reunited at KONG studios. She had said that it was special, and could easily kill any living or undead creature that threatened him. He sighed and put it in his pocket, not knowing how many knives he needed.
Almost six hours later, 2D had finished his room and was now watching a movie called Resident Evil when a light knock sounded on his door. Startled, 2D hid under the blankets and managed to ask "Who… who's dere?" No answer. He assumed it was Noodle. She always came and got him if he slept too late. He got up and strolled to the door, happy that someone in this place gave a damn about him.
After opening the door, he realized his dire mistake as he glanced at the clock. 2D realized that it was only ten, and Noodle didn't come until noon.
"No…", 2D said softly.
Sorry about the late update! But I went to DC and Mom wouldn't let me bring the laptop, I have been watching the timer in the hell hole (which was VERY dissapointing), and there was a marathon of X-Play on G4! So sorry. I'll update soon, but I acctually WANT this cliff hanger! Tell me if the rating is appropriate please! And R&R, even if it is just to tell me that you read this.
