A Pamphlet

It was just an accident; that's it. They didn't mean for it to happen; it just did. The three heroes of our story, the Eds, were in a class room. The room was blank and grey; like all color was erased from the room. It was cold, like all the fun in life was sucked from their souls.

Double-D turned to the left, and saw Lee; she turned to the sock headed boy, and spoke. "Why'd you do it?" the Ed felt his heart race, his face got sweaty "We didn't mean to…" he said; "You always don't mean to." Lee cried… and lit on fire.

Double-D woke with a start; he was covered in sweat. He breathed heavily.

He felt a drop of sweat fall off his chin. His clock was ringing non stop; he turned to his clock; it read seven fifteen. He felt the warm sun beat down on his face through the window.

It was a calm, winter day; the reason the sun was warm is because of no clouds. A very rare thing; Edd walked out of his house. He wore his signature sock hat, grey jeans, and an orange jacket.

"Hey sock head!" Eddy ran up to the smart Ed "How ya doing?" he asked. "I'm fine." Edd put his backpack on his back; they walked to Ed's house. Eddy wore a dark yellow jacket, with a pair of black jeans.

As they reached Ed's house, they felt a wave of guilt wash over them. After everything that's happened, they always feel guilty. They walked through the snow; the sound of crunching ice being heard with every step.

They walked past the side, and went to the back. They used the old entrance; feeling a bit nostalgic. They saw the same room, with mold, grime, and the smell of decaying butter.

"Ed!" Double-D yelled; they saw Ed, sitting on his bed. He was fully dressed; wearing a green leather jacket, and purple jeans. He was reading one of his many comics; 'I was an ice robot from the sevens dimension'.

"Ready to go, lumpy?" Eddy asked "Sure am!" Ed got up, and walked out with them. They walked past the Peach Creek Estate, which was now fully finished.

They went past the park n flush with caution. It wasn't like a few years back, when the girls would just kiss them. The girls would maul them if they went anywhere near the park n flush. Eddy looked at his watch; it said seven fifty eight. The Kankers sleep till nine, so they're safe.

The tree leaves, though few, were glistening from the ice that covered everything. But Double-D felt a small bit of warm light fall upon his cheeks.

Eddy turned to his left, and didn't see Ed. he looked back, and saw Ed; he was staring at a squirrel, in a tree. "Double-D…" Eddy nudged his friend. The sock headed Edd saw Ed, and they both ran to him. Eddy put his hand over Ed's eyes, while Double-D pulled him away.

"I'm sorry… I couldn't help my self." Ed apologized as they walked past the forest. "Ed, I understand. We all have been through it." Double-D said; they saw the school in sight. Usually, Double-D would be thrilled; but he felt down every time they went. As they walked through the doors, a sudden chill went through their souls.

The room went quiet from their presence. Rolf put his head in his locker, while Johnny hid Plank. Kevin slammed his locker, and walked off; mumbling. Ever since what happened, Kevin hasn't talked, or even bothered them. At first, it was a strange feeling; not having their bones crushed each day. But in time, they got used to it.

Jimmy and Sarah walked into their lockers, and closed them. Sarah hasn't beaten the Eds up either. The days just seemed to blur together now; Eddy didn't try to scam anymore. No one would talk to him; well except for his two friends. It seemed like the world was just one big continuous day.

By lunch, the Eds had already had enough. It was oatmeal day; but as luck would have it, the oatmeal was cold. Everyone was shivering with each bite. Eddy tried to pick up the spoon that was in his meal; but it was stuck. He turned to Ed, who was staring at the oatmeal.

Ed felt a slight shock of heat go through his forehead; the oatmeal started to melt. Ed took a small bite, and licked his lips.

Kevin looked over, and gritted his teeth "Dorks…"

By the end of the school day, the Eds were sitting on the steps of the school. Ed was looking at his hands; they were warm; probably from staring at them for so long.

Kevin. Johnny and Rolf were hiding in the trees "So here's the plan…" Kevin started. "We strike them down, and put them in Rolf's under ground lair. That way, we can make them talk; we'll find out how they make things burn." The others nodded.

The Eds got up "How about we go to The Big Peach?" Double-D asked. They walked past the trees; Kevin, Rolf and Johnny jumped out "Time to go."

"Eddy?" Double-D said "Yeah?" Eddy asked "I suggest we… run!" the three ran into the woods. The snow crunched as their footsteps; they felt their faces get hot from the adrenaline pumping through their bodies. Kevin, Rolf and Johnny weren't far behind. They could see the Eds running past the now leafless trees.

The three Eds turned to the left; they saw the old Urban Rangers camp. Along time ago, that camp was the place where kids became Urban Rangers; like in the fifties. Now it's just an old relic; the Eds ran into the small camp, and hid in a small tent. The tent was old, and ragged; it had a few holes on the top. It was no more a cozy tent for campers; but a bum's house.

The three felt their hearts race; they controlled their breathing. The sound of crunching snow could be heard from outside of the tent; they didn't move. Shadows could be seen. Kevin, Rolf and Johnny were silent; trying to find the smallest noise.

Double-D saw a small rock by Ed; he picked it up. He opened the side of the tent and through it at a tree. The rock hit, and made a sound "Get them!" Kevin yelled. The three bullies ran after the sound.

After a minute, the three got out; they sighed in relief. "Nice job sock head." Eddy complemented; they walked out. But Double-D heard a sound of crunching; not that of snow… but of paper. He looked down, and saw a small pamphlet; it said 'Whispering Rock'. "Yo; sock head!" Eddy yelled back; Edd was snapped out of his trance. He picked up the pamphlet, and walked on.

Soon, they reached Ed's house. They went into Ed's room, and sat down; Ed looked at his comics. Double-D took out the pamphlet "What ya got there?" Eddy asked "Nothing…" he looked at the piece of paper; it had dust on it. He took out a disinfectant wipe, and took off the dust. It showed the full name… 'Whispering Rock, Psychic Summer Camp'.

Double-D's eyes went wide "This is it…" he whispered "This is the answer!" he said happily.

Eddy and Ed looked at him in confusion "Listen…" Double-D started "You are born with a gift, though everyone treats it like a curse. Your mother's afraid of you…" Ed shed a tear.

"And your father's ashamed…" Eddy looked down "Come to whispering rock psychic summer camp. Out there, your gifts make you a loner… a monster… and circus freak. But here… they make you… and hero…" Ed and Eddy looked at Double-D with hope. "Black forest Idaho, from nineteen twenty one, to two thousand eight."

Eddy sighed "It could be a dead camp by now." Double-D looked at Eddy "Maybe, Eddy; but if it's out there… it may be the only thing that can help us control our powers." Eddy wiped the sweat off his forehead.

"Get packing…" Double-d said "We're going to Whispering Rock."

The Eds packed; Double-D made a map for them. By the next day, the three were asleep.

Sarah walked into the room "Hey you morons! Get up; it's time for school!" the three woke with a moan. The Eds got their bags, and walked out; they walked away from the school "Hey; where are you going?" Sarah asked. Eddy turned "We're going to Whispering Rock." They walked off; Sarah got her phone out "It's Sarah; meet me at the junk yard, Jimmy." She closed her phone.

The Eds walked into the junk yard, and past all of the broken things; Sarah, Jimmy, Nazz, and Johnny were hiding behind the junk. "Ready guys?" Ed asked "Yep!" Eddy said "Definitely." Double-D said.

The three walked into the old van; over the years, the Eds have been fixing it up. That way, they could use it when they got their licenses.

Double-D started the van up; it hummed from the sound of the engine.

The Eds smiled "Next stop… Whispering Rock Psychic Summer Camp!" they said in unison.

They drove out of the junk yard, and yelled happily "Whispering Rock, here we come!" Sarah narrowed her eyes. "Whispering rock… we need info." She took out her lab top, and set up her internet connection "Ok, whispering rock." She typed it into her search.

The screen showed a large camp, with the words 'Whispering Rock, Psychic Summer Camp'. "It says that this camp if for kids with mental control." Nazz tapped Sarah on the shoulder "What does that mean?" she asked "It means that it's a camp for psychics." She scrolls down. "This camp teaches kids to control their psychic abilities. If those Eds can control their powers… they could control all of us…"

The four kids ran to the park n flush; they knocked on the Kankers door.

Marie answered "What do you want?" she asked "It's the Eds." Marie clenched her fists.

They told the two Kankers about what happened; they walked to their neighbor's house. They knocked on the door "Hey Mr. Macklin! We need the sports car!"

The hand of a very old man appeared out of the door, and snapped his fingers. The ground opened, and showed a brand new sports car, with a hood. It was black with a red stripe on the side.

"Nice car." Johnny said "Thanks; he get's a seiner citizen, so he's stinking rich." May said.

They got in, and drove off.

But with the Eds, Double-D was thinking about the abilities his brain could hold. Ed was heating some popcorn with his mind, and Eddy was listening to music. "So this camp in gonna help us control our powers?" Eddy asked "It should." Double-D responded.

But behind them, the Kankers, and the kids were right behind them "You're gonna pay…" May and Marie said in unison "Dorks…"
