Chapter four – New Faces
"What's all this yellin' about?!" said the green-looking man as he stormed to the study from the double doors.
"And who the hell are you?" he continued as he stopped on his heels after seeing the penguin sitting on the armchair and drinking tea with Noodle.
"I..." the penguin started and stood up on the chair.
"Am Skipper. Who are you?" he continued with newly found confidence.
"I'm Murdoc, and this is my HQ," the man grunted.
Noodle cleared her throat loudly.
"It's our HQ," she stated to Murdoc with a dry tone.
"All the same, luv," Murdoc shrugged in a slightly odd manner.
"He's always like that," Noodle said to Skipper.
Skipper, the penguin, looked at the green-ish man called Murdoc.
He had a strong British accent and slightly hoarse, low voice. He was wearing only black jeans and boots and had a nearly burnt cigarette in his mouth, pitch black hair covering half of his eyes. He had the looks of a dirty rocker. And definitely the attitude of a dirty rocker.
"So," Murdoc said as he took the cigarette stud out of his mouth, threw it on the floor and stomped it out. Noodle gave the man a very disapproving look, but Murdoc didn't care. He lit another cigarette and continued speaking:
"Why the 'ell are ya 'ere?"
"That's what I'm trying to figure out," Skipper said, ignoring Murdoc's cold and unwelcoming tone.
"And Miss Noodle here said she wants to help me with that," the penguin continued.
"Is that so?" Murdoc asked without looking at whom he was speaking to, and that made Noodle and Skipper uncertain which one should answer.
After the two quickly glanced at each other Noodle decided to speak.
"Yes, so if you don't plan on being any help, you might as well go bother someone else," she hissed, but quickly covered her mouth with her hand.
"But leave 2D alone," she said more softly. Murdoc chuckled.
"Who is this '2D'?" Skipper interrupted the situation.
Noodle turned to him. "He's our singer. Murdoc bullies him, a lot," she stated sadly.
"It's jus' for his own good," Murdoc laughed.
Skipper had never seen Noodle, or anyone, look so angry before.
"If looks could kill..."-phrase came to Skipper's mind.
"Alright, I'm off," Murdoc stated and turned on his heels.
"Murdoc?" Noodle said after him and green-ish man turned his head.
"Please," the girl said quietly.
Murdoc chuckled and gave Noodle a wink. Then he walked away and disappeared back behind the doors he had come in from, blowing smoke on his way.
"Miss Noodle," Skipper said, and Noodle turned to him.
"Could we go see this '2D'?"
