I completely understand if this chapter seems rushed. This is the journey from Seattle to Plastic Beach. Yes, the whole thing. It lasts two weeks. This chapter may seem short, if so, I apologize.

Chapter 2

Russel gave me a mask.

Not just any mask, a mask with a kitty face. Well, I don't know what it is to be honest, but I have to wear it to cover my face. I know why- it's my eye. My eye is bruised and bloodshot. Ame's forcing me to wear it because it makes me look cute. I have to breathe from my mouth. I don't really like it.

This outfit I'm wearing is really futuristic- black and white stockings, a short white dress with four randomly placed pockets, and white spacey gloves. I actually like this new wardrobe for some reason. He finally let me grow up, I have so many bikinis it's not even funny. I may as well wear some of the bikini tops as regular shirts. It's hot anyways, and I need a tan.

Day 2 of our journey rolled around, and Russel got bigger, both in width and in height. I'm slightly worried about what he's eating.

On the third day, our boat was no longer in the water, it was on Russel's head. He's about thirty feet tall now. I'm more weirded out than when I had that creepy dream seven years ago where I lived in a world where lettuce could talk to me. It was scary, and really unexplainable.

He just keeps growing. It's the 5th day now and Ame almost fell off the boat and into the ocean. I know that Russel's going to kick some Satanic arse when- or if- he shrinks back down to normal size.

One night I lay in my small bed in sort of a melancholy mood. I had another random flashback.

It is October 2004. I looked behind me as a familiar voice called my name. "2D-sama!" I called. I ran into his arms. He picked me up and we both hugged. It had been a couple years, at least. "I missed you very much!"
"Noodle, luv! Yew speak English now! Yer so old now. Las time I saw yeh yew wos like, tha' high!" he showed me with his hand how tall I was.

"I am not much taller now."
"How old are yeh now?"
"I am thirteen, I'll be fourteen pretty soon."

"Wow, gettin' old dere."

"Guess so."

I opened my eyes again and frowned. I went to the window. "Russel?" I asked. Russel is about 100 feet tall now.

"Yeah?"
"How long until we are there?"
"I'd say about five days. I can faintly see it now."

"Okay."

There was an awkward silence.

"I miss 2D-sama so much."
"I know ya do."
"I stayed up all night when we left, I went to go look up the album, Murdoc is torturing him!"

"That's not good."
"Yeah, he said something like, 2D is in a glass room surrounded by a whale."

"Oh. Get some rest Noodle."
"I will."

I layed down again and slept for about an hour. Each night, I had flashbacks, and each night, we got closer. Four days, three days, two, one.

One morning I woke up and we were within 100 feet of the building. Upon arriving at the building, Russel bent over and let me off. I found the entrance easily, and went inside. The lift was right there, and a little strange-looking midget in a white suit greeted me. I poked him then went into the lift. I was grateful that '2D's room' was a button, and pressed it. When I got there, there he was, wearing a white hat and a reddish shirt and jeans. His curtain was closed, and he was sobbing. "Why, oh why did th's hafta 'appen? I miss 'er, I need 'er back. Please, bring 'er back."

I approached him slowly.
"She...she wos so young an'...! Noodle. I need yeh luv! Oh, I wish yew were...'ere..."
"Wish granted," I said. He turned around and I silently gasped. His eyes weren't normal, they were white. I knew he was scared right away. He knew me, even with the mask.

"Noodle...? Is...is tha' yew...?"
"Hai. It is me."
"No, 'm seein fings. 'M seein fings..."
"You are not seeing things." I sat down next to him, and did something I never thought of doing.

I kissed him.
