Chapter .2.
Noodle!!!
The bruise was still fresh on his head. It always puzzled 2D how Murdoc could cause so much pain by nothing more than a mere slap. He filled his bowl with stale cornflakes and milk as he gazed in awe at how much bacon Russel was scarfing down.
"Yo 'D!" said Russel "Pass me that milk!"
2D passed the milk down the table to Russel and was amazed to see him pouring it all over his bacon and eggs. It was disgusting. 2D crinckled his nose at the sight of soggy, milked bacon.
"How can you do that?" he asked.
"What? It all ends up in the same place don't it?" laughed Russel with a mouth full of breakfast.
"Ugh that's lovely" 2D said sarcastically.
The intresting but equally as gross conversation was interupted by Murdoc bursting into the kitchen in a disturbingly, happy mood.
"Morning lads!" smiled Murdoc as he sat at the table.
"Why you so happy Muds?" asked Russel
"I am happy because, unlike face-ache here-"
2D gave Murdoc a dead-eyed look from across the table.
"- I've pulled some strings and got us a new guitarist!" beamed Murdoc as he crossed his arms and laughed to himself.
Hearing all this made 2D feel even smaller than the day before. He knew he messed up but Murdoc couldn't help but bring it up once more to make him feel more crappy than he already did. Still, life goes on. 2D knew complaining about the insults would just make it worse so he decided to leave it.
"So who is it?" asked 2D as he scratched his head "and when are they getting here?"
"Well to tell the truth, I don't really know who they are. I just spoke to their manager and he said he'd send 'em down." laughed Murdoc, it was like he knew he screwed up.
And he calls me a stupid little worm? 2D thought to himself at least I would know who i'd hired.
"But don't you worry lads!" smiled Murdoc "i've heard whoever it is is really really good!"
Suddenly, there was a loud knock at the door. All three of the Gorillaz lept out of their seats and ran towards the front door. 2D was the first to reach the steel, front door which had the words "Kong Studios" spray painted over it. He was just about to turn the handle when Murdoc roughly pushed him aside.
"Move aside ugly!" he laughed as he opened the door.
"Delivery for the Gorillaz!" yelled a delivery boy.
More importantly, there next to the boy was a large, cardboard FedEx box, filled with tiny holes.
"We didn't order nothing!" growled Murdoc
"Oh! I think you'll find you did" smiled the boy. He got out a clip board and a pen and bravely handed it to Murdoc. "Sign here please sir!"
"Grrr Fine!" snapped Murdoc as he snatched the forms from the boy. He mumbled swear words under his breath as he signed.
"Pleasure doing bussiness with you!" smiled the boy before running back to the van and speeding away.
The band gathered around the box and stared in wonder as to what may be inside.
"Russel, you didn't order another dead dog did you?" asked 2D.
Suddenly, the box began to rattle and shake. A small, faint giggling could be heard coming from the inside. Murdoc pressed his eye to peer in through one of the air holes, trying to get a better look. He flinched back in pain as he felt the cargo poke his eye.
"OW! Sweet Satan!" he exclaimed "There's a bloody Gremlin in there!"
"Don't be ridiculous." sighed 2D as he to made his way towards the box.
2D began to open the lid of the box. Bit by bit, the brown tape was thrown to the floor having been ripped from the body of the box. Once it was all gone, the box was now able to be opened. 2D went to touch the roof of the box when all of a sudden it burst open itself. The band all fell back in terror, almost wetting themselves in the process. There, standing in the box was a little asian girl who looked about 10 years old. 2D was the first to make his way towards the new arrival.
"Hello sweetheart." he smiled "what were you doing in that box?"
"..." the girl said nothing.
"Hello?"
"..."
"Little girl?"
"NOODLE!!!!!!!!!!!!" yelled the girl.
2D fell back in shock. He really wasn't expecting that reaction to a simple question. Murdoc began to laugh as he saw 2D shaking on the floor.
"You spineless little slug!" he laughed "Get scared by a nipper did ya?! I'll handle this."
Murdoc walked up to the girl and tried, that's tried to look less threatening.
"Listen love, we're not buying no chocolate bars or nothing so go bother someone else."
"NOODLE!!!!!!!!!" the girl yelled again
"We 'aint buyin' no noodles either! Now go on!"
"NOODLE!!!!!!!!"
"Why you cheeky little!-"
Without warning, the girl leapt out of the box and landed straight on Murdoc's foot. (by the way, he's not wearing shoes)
"AAAHHHH!" he howled. The little girl giggled as she ran straight passed 2D and Russel and through the open front door of Kong Studios.
"Grab her!" ordered Murdoc.
On that note, all three of the Gorillaz ran after the sparky little girl. Wherever she ran she caused distruction. She ran through the kitchen, causing knives, forks, plates and food to fall and hit the floor. In the game room, countless televisions and stereos were knocked to the floor. Thankfully though she didn't get 2D's game consoles. In the recording room she began to press all the buttons and caused a short circuit of all the functions.
Finally she came to 2D's room. She dived onto the bed and began to bounce up and down like a hyper kangaroo.
"NOODLE! NOODLE! NOODLE! NOODLE!!!" she laughed as she bounced.
The band finally caught up to her. 2D was actually quite amused at this funny little girl. She clearly didn't care what anyone thought and she wasn't intimidated by mad-Murdoc. Murdoc on the other hand had lost his temper with this kid as soon as he laid eyes on her.
"Right! That's it!" he growled "I've had enough of this!"
"Calm down, calm down" said 2D "I'll deal with her."
2D walked up to the bed and the hyper, bouncy child.
"Little girl-"
"NOODLE!!!" laughed the girl
"Come on sweetheart I think you should-"
"NOODLE!!!!!"
He could tell that talking was no way to get through to this kid, he decided to play it crafty. He reached into his pocket and pulled out a large, pink marshmallow (which he was saving for later).
"Here darling, have a sweetie." he smiled nicely at her.
The girl stopped bouncing and stared at 2D with a confused look on her face.
"Come on darling, you can have it." smiled 2D.
The girl's dazed look soon turned into a large, cheesey smile. She suddenly leapt onto 2D, who luckily caught her before she fell to the floor, and took the Marshmallow from his hand. She scarfed it down.
"Arigatou! Onii-chan!" she smiled.
