Noodle hesitated before pushing the doors of Kong open, afraid of what she would find inside. It was dark and smelled like mildew, trash covered the floor and the jukebox lay on its side. She stepped cautiously over the garbage and broken glass, Noodle had a lot of work to do. She took the lift up to the kitchen and searched around in the cupboards and found some trash bags.
The kitchen was the easiest room to clean, seeing how small it was. The dishes were strewn across the floor, shattered into pieces. Noodle made a mental note to pick up some new ones later on.
All in all, it took a little over a week to clean the studio. She admired her handiwork, everything was just how it had been when she was last there. Except for the rest of the band. For the first time since she returned, she cried. She missed them, and the studio wasn't the same without them. Noodle sighed and walked out to the carpark, she found a car that would still run and hotwired it. She had her learners permit, but was quite certain she wouldn't get pulled over.
An hour later, Noodle pulled back into the carpark and started lugging groceries into the house, setting them in the lobby. When the food was put away, she started on the new dishes she'd bought, removing them from their packages and washing them before putting them into the cupboards.
Later that night, she was rummaging around in a box in one of the storage rooms, looking for some of her old things he'd packed away years ago. Noodle pulled some old papers out and spilled some on the floor. Reaching down to retrieve them, she noticed the blue folder labeled 'Demon Days'. She opened it to reveal music sheets and lyrics that accompanied them.
She flipped over the pages in turn and studied them. Did Murdoc write these? Or perhaps 2D? Noodle gathered them up into the folder and headed up to her room, playing the songs on her guitar. She smiled, maybe they could use this for a new album…
I forgot to add this in the last chapter, it explains how Demon Days was written.
Noodle from the future wrote everything down and left it for her younger self to find when she returned to Kong after the band split.
