I do not own Gorillaz

Sunny woke up feeling odd.

Like in a foreboding sense, she felt herself filling with excitement and dread. Not entirely sure how to put her finger on it, but she knew something would happen today. She shrugged off the feeling.

Like father like daughter.

She quickly got to work getting her chores done. Her mother had came home in a drunken daze and knocked over the lamp in the living room. Again.

Sunny was used to her mother doing stuff like that, and was always expected to clean up the mess that followed. She once asked her mom if she could use her powers to clean up the messes, but was told time and time again, that her powers were not for everyday use. They were for important things, like making Paula happy.

With the lamp fixed, and the rest of her chores halfway done, she continued to work thinking maybe if she got everything done and if her mom was in a good mood, she'd let her go and hang out with Tony.

Knock knock knock

Sunny whipped her head towards the door. Did her mom have a visitor coming over she didn't tell her about?

Knock knock knock

She debated opening the door. Her mother always seemed to get mad when she spoke to her 'guests'.

Knock knock kno- Murdoc!

Wait a minute. Murdoc?

Racing to the door Sunny opened it in one fluid motion.

There in the flesh was the Gorillaz themselves, Noodle stood waving at her with a happy glint in her eyes, Russel smiled at her warmly making his huge frame look less intimidating, Murdoc stood with his fist in the air, looking like he was going to knock on the door again, until he saw Sunny and he smiled genuinely, putting his hand down, 2D looked at her with hopeful eyes and beamed.

"'Ello love," 2D said happily. "Can we come in?"

"I-I uh-" Sunny stuttered. She wanted to ask what they were doing there. At her house. But she just nodded at let them in.

"So where's your mom at Sunny?" Russel asked after she had led them to the living room couch. "Or dad whoever you live with."

"Oh she's upstairs sleeping."

"Sleeping?" asked Noodle curiously, "It's two o'clock in the afternoon."

Sunny shifted nervously, "Yeah, she um, has uh, bad headache."

The others glanced at each other. "Sunny we came a long way to see you." 2D said.

Her eyes lit up, "All the way from the UK right?"

Murdoc laughed, "Of course love, only for you."

She frowned suddenly. "But….Why?"

"Well….We think-"

"WHAT is all this bloody racket going on down here."

Sunny blanched and was rooted to her spot in fear, her mother stumbled down the stairs, hungover and irritated. She thought her mom would be asleep for at least a few more hours, and by then the Gorillaz would be gone and she wouldn't be in any trouble. But Sunny never considered herself very lucky.

The band members seemed confused by both the loud voice and Sunny's reaction to it. They turned to the source of the noise and three out of four of them had the same reaction.

"Paula!?" 2D yelled in shock.

"What the hell!?" Murdoc shouted in rage at seeing her face again.

"What are you doing here!?" Russel boomed in confusion, voicing the other two men's thoughts.

"Wait." Started Noodle trying to assess the situation, "This is Paula?"

"Who let you all in!?" Paula screeched a ghostly white. "And how did you find me!?"

"I-I did mom…. I'm sorry I know you don't like them for some reas-" Sunny began and was cut off.

"Wait."

The Gorillaz eyes had turned hard, and if possible, Paula had gotten paler.

Murdoc opened and closed his fists trying not to punch something, "Did she just call you mom?"

Paula squirmed, "I-I don't uh-"

2D glared at Paula, "You're the one tha' took 'er."

She backed up, "But-b-bu-"

Russel cracked his fists, "You've lied to her all this time haven't you?"

She found herself back to the wall, "I-I didn't m-mean t-"

Noodle shook her head, "Shouldn't have done that."

Paula covered her face with her hands shaking.

Sunny was definitely not used to seeing her mother afraid. Usually, it was Sunny who did the cowering. And although she was totally confused as to why the Gorillaz were so mad at her mom, or how they even knew her mom, she knew she had to stop them before her mother got hurt. Sure she could be a bad mom sometimes but Sunny was positive her mother loved her, and that she didn't deserve to get beat up.

Running forward Sunny jumped in front of Paula, shielding her. "Stop, please!"

The band members halted to a stop, looking down at the girl in shock. 2D stepped forward.

"Sunny," He began slowly, "Your mum, she's no' who she says she 's"

Murdoc stepped forward as well, "That's right love, she's a fraud that's been feeding you lies. I dunno what she's told you but she is not your mother. When you were born you were born to two great parents who loved you so much."

"She told me that I had other birth parents, but that they wanted to get rid of me."

2D kneeled down in front of Sunny with a sad look in his eye, "No, no' at all. They loved you wif all their hearts. You jus' got taken away 's all."

Sunny furrowed her eyebrows, "Taken away?"

Murdoc put a hand on her shoulder, "By Paula."

"But…. My ma she…."

2D shook his head, "She did, she took you an' you've been livin' 'ere ever since it seems."

Sunny was dumbfounded, "So. Who are are my real parents?"

Murdoc and 2D looked at each other and nodded.

"We're your parents kiddo."
