Chapter two: Party in Japan:
    “Oh come on Basil. Please!” Aneko pleaded. “No Aneko. We’re not going.” Basil said serenely. Her roommate wanted to go to a party going on downtown. “Ross will be there.” Aneko said using her weapon on her roommate. Basil froze in shock. She looked up with big eyes. “Ross….is….going?” Basil asked. “Uh-huh.” said Aneko. *Basil has stars in her eyes* “Ross.” she sighed. “So are we going?” Aneko sighed. “Yes.” Basil sighed. “Yeahhh!” the princess cheered.
    “So let me get this straight, we’ll going all the way to Japan for a party?” Dolly asked. Gorillaz and co. were at the airport. “Yes.” said Murds. “Why?” she asked. He just ignored her. Murdoc looked over at Reese. She was holding Trevor in her arms. “Why are you taking the rugrat with you?” he spoke up. “Because I want to!” Reese snapped back. “Let her take the crumb snatcher if it keeps her happy.” Dolly cut in. “What for?” Murds hissed. “So we won’t have to her whining about his safety!” Dolly whispered to him. “Oh! I see.” Murdoc whispered back. Then with that, the crew boarded the plane and headed for Japan.
    Evening came quick over Kyoto. The crew was waiting eagerly to get in the community center. The Gorillaz and co. were also waiting in line. Noodle especially. She was going into the guitar contest. She wasn’t nervous, just excited. Finally, the cent’s doors opened. People were rushing in. The two groups just walked right on in.
The center was packed. Women and teenage girls with guitars were lined up for the contest. “This will be fun!” Noodle thought. Basil and co. were excited. “Wowww!” Aneko exclaimed. “Like it?” Tom asked her. “Uh-huh.” said she. “It’s only getting started.” said he.
    Tom was right. Everything was slow at first. But when the guitar contest began, the party got better. Noodle was the twelfth contestant. The first three were pretty good. Contestants four through seven sounded awful. Eight through eleven sounded a little better. At last, Noodle’s turn. Her song to play was “Ain’t Afraid to Die” by Dir en Gray. The guitarist sounded great. “Isn’t that Noodle from the band Gorillaz?” Aneko whispered to China. “I thought she was younger.” China whispered back. “Must be a spell.” the princess thought. Once her song was over, Noodle bowed and left the stage. The audience was amazed. The last three weren’t as good. Then came time to vote. The audience had to vote by applause. Noodle got the most applause. She won the prize money. “Are you glad I brought you to this contest?” Sky asked afterwards. “Hai.” Noodle said. “(I am).”
