Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

That was the sound that woke Eddy up early on that fine September saturday morning.

"Hello!" Bang. "Hello!" Bang. "Hello!"

"Ed, will you kindly stop that? You could try OPENING the door, instead of running into it." Double D remarked coyly as he opened the outside door to Eddy's bedroom and stepped aside for Ed. Ed missed the open door completely and slammed into the side of the house instead.

"HELLO!"

"Oh dear..." Double D groaned, rubbing his right temple. It was much too early in the morning to feel a headache coming on. Eddy groaned long and loud, pulling the blanket up over his head.

"Come on you guys, you know the rule about saturdays! I get to sleep until two pm and you LEAVE ME ALONE!" Eddy was exhausted from a long week at school and he loved to use his saturdays to recharge and catch up on missed sleep.

"Eddy, sleeping that late in the day is simply not healthy. You know the old saying; 'Early to bed, early to rise, makes a man healthy, wealthy and wise'!"

"Well I sure as heck ain't wealthy..." Eddy grumbled under his breath, sitting up in bed. He stretched, popped his back, and let out a bear yawn. In the midst of rubbing the mist out of his eyes, it suddenly hit him.

"Wealthy."

"Pardon?" Double D asked, cocking his head slightly.

"Wealthy! I totally forgot!"

"Oh no... You're thinking again, Eddy. What's going on in that labyrinthine mind of yours?"

Eddy quickly bound out of bed and made a beeline for his closet. He started digging through clothes to find his signature yellow bowling tee shirt with the red stripe, and baggy blue jeans.

"I need you to start cooking up another one of your brilliant scams, sockhead, it's time to make some money!" Double D cocked his head in confusion.

"I need to find a way to make some fast cash so I can...uh, well," Eddy cut himself off and started to rub the back of his neck, biting his lip.

"So you can what, Eddy?" Eddy looked around the room suspiciously before leaning in close to whisper to Double D and Ed.

"Well ya see, it's my mom's birthday in a few days and I told myself I was gonna get her something real nice this year. Ya know...to make up for all the years past when my gifts weren't that great." Double D clasped his hands together and a love-struck smile split his face.

"Oh Eddy, that's so thoughtful of you! I'm sure your mother will be thrilled!"

"Tch, yeah, well she ain't gonna be too thrilled if I got nothing to show on her birthday. So start thinking, sockhead. I need a brilliant scam asap!" After he was fully dressed he slipped on his shoes and grabbed a jacket, suddenly more eager than ever to start the day. "Well, are you guys just gonna stand there? Come on!"

The other two followed Eddy outside and they began wandering down the sidewalk, away from Eddy's house.

"You know Eddy, you'd think we would have moved past the scams?" Double D started to ask, flicking at the gap between his teeth with his tongue. "After all, we've finally made amends with everybody in the cul-de-sac and I believe trying to once more weasle them out of their money would only cause an uproarious situation that you're not prepared to deal with."

"I'll be fine Double D, it's for a good cause this time."

"You could always try making something for your mother?"

"If you suggest knitting..."

Double D could only smile and chuckle softly.

"Either way, it's very kind of you to be thinking of your mother like this."

"Yeah yeah, just don't let it get around. If people found out I was all soft for my mom they'd lose respect for me."

"...Nobody had any respect for you to begin with." Double D remarked flatly.

"Well now they do, and I wanna keep it that way. So come on, work with me here and think." Double D rolled his eyes good-naturedly.

"I'll definitely try, Eddy."

As they were walking along, the tranquil silence that filled the air was shattered when a moving van came tearing down the street. It caused the wind to momentarily pick up and nearly knocked Double D over.

"What the heck?" Eddy questioned out loud.

It was a We-Haul truck. It stopped in front of the old orange house next to Kevin's, that had been empty for as long as anybody in the cul-de-sac could remember. Someone finally bought it? Or was, at the very least, renting it?

Double D's face lit up.

"Oh this is wonderful, gentlemen! This could mean a potential new friend for all of us!"

"LET'S GO SAY HI!" Ed shouted boisterously, right into Double D's ear. Double D pulled the sides of his black beanie down over his ears, wincing in terrible pain.

"Ed, please! Don't shout like that!"

"I wanna go say hi Double D, can we can we CAN WEEEE?" Ed looked down at the shorter boy with large, dewey puppy dog eyes. Double D suddenly grew uncomfortable under that pleading gaze that he knew he could never say no to. He swallowed and felt a bead of sweat run down his temple.

"Well, uh, Ed, it's...it's a very nice thought, and I'm sure they would appreciate it. But we should give our new friend some time to settle in before we just go barging over-"

"Ahh quit yer yappin' and come on Double D. Let's go say hi and get this over with." Eddy grabbed Double D's arm and started dragging him in the direction of the moving van.

"But Eddy we really should give them time to-!"

"Listen here, sockhead. If we don't go over there and say hi to this chick right now, Lumpy's gonna spend the rest of the day bugging us about it and probably blubbering while he's at it, and I'm not about to listen to any of that. So let's just go say hi and make monobrow happy. Capiche?"

Double D then cleared his throat and recited with a most perfect Italian accent, "...Mi irritare fino agli estremi confini della terra." (You irritate me to the ends of the earth.)

"Bless you, Double D."

Cue hawk screech sound effect.

Eddy simply shook his head and uttered his classic "Shut up, Ed," before grabbing the tall imp's jacket sleeve and dragging him once more in the general direction of the moving van. Double D rolled his eyes so far back in his head that he swore he could see the inside of his hat. But he followed along anyways, with his arms crossed over his chest, giving off the indignant attitude of a stubborn five year old.

The three boys stopped in front of the moving truck just as the large hatch door slid open. For a few moments, there was some unintelligible conversation coming from inside and they all exchanged confused looks and shrugs. Not long after, two men in uniform trodded out and began hauling boxes into the house, two at a time. Double D promptly yanked the other two aside so they wouldn't be in the way of the gentlemens' work.

"I tried to tell you this would be a bad idea Eddy; we're perfect strangers who are going to be nothing but obstruents to these fine gentlemen who are trying to do their jobs!"

"Can it sockhead, just help us find the kid so we can get this out of the way."

"May I help you?"

Double D was the only one brave enough to swallow and look up nervously to find a rather tired, disheveled looking woman standing over them. Her dark brown curls were pulled back into a tight, professional looking bun, and red wire rimmed glasses were perched on the bridge of her perfectly dainty nose.

Edd cleared his throat briefly and stepped forward a bit. He tried his best to disguise the nervous quaver in his voice.

"Salutations, and good morning ma'am. My name is Eddward Vincent and these are my good friends, Eddy Sampson and Ed Hill." He gestured to each Ed respectively. Ed smiled brightly and flapped his arm ridiculously while Eddy gave only a half-hearted flip of his hand.
"We couldn't help but notice that you just moved in, and we would very much like to be the first ones to welcome you to our lovely little community of Peach Creek." He flashed the woman his nervous, gap-toothed smile, and held out a shaking hand. This earned him a small smile and a chuckle from the woman in return. She met his hand with her own and shook it warmly.

"Well thank you Eddward, that's very kind of you." She suddenly felt a bit embarrassed about her appearance; here she was standing in front of three impressionable young boys in nothing but a skin tight tee shirt and pajama pants. "Ah, you'll have to excuse my appearance." She explained briefly. "I've been driving all night and I'm awfully tired."

"I can imagine that you are. Now my friends and I were wondering..." Double D peered around the woman and caught a glimpse of their station wagon. It appeared to be empty. "Wasn't there somebody else with you? We'd like to say hello to them as well."

The woman smiled a little bigger this time and shook her head.

"Yes, I do have a daughter. I believe she's about your age as well. She was so excited to see the town that she ran off exploring as soon as she got the chance. Why don't you run along and see if you can find her?" The Eds exchanged eager looks with eachother. A new girl in town? A girl besides Nazz, Sarah and those evil Kanker Sisters?

However, Eddy's attitude quickly changed and he let out a long groan.

"Come on guys, I don't want to spend all day running around!"

Double D paused for a moment, before a devilish grin split his face.

"Oh, but Eddy." He started in an airy, mocking tone. "You ARE the one who insisted that we come over here and say hello. You ARE the one who wanted to make Ed happy. You wouldn't want to see Ed upset because we weren't able to say hello to our new friend, would you?"

"Please oh please Eddy? I want to meet our new friend so very much!" Ed's bottom lip jutted out and his big brown eyes filled with tears. He whimpered loudly and sniffled a few times.

Eddy's gaze flitted back and forth between Double D's smug expression and Ed's sorrowful one. He bit his bottom lip and let out another groan, this time in defeat.

"Alright, alright, fine! Let's go..." He grumbled, shoving his hands deep into his pockets and scuffing the pavement with the heel of his shoe.

"HOORAY!" Ed scooped up Eddy and threw him over his shoulder. He began to run off aimlessly, laughing his signature goofy Ed laugh.

"HEY!" Eddy pounded a fist on Ed's back in protest. "HEY! PUT ME DOWN YA BIG LUG!"

Double D could only smile and felt his cheeks flush a little from the secondhand embarrassment his friends had just caused him. He turned back to the woman once more.

"You'll have to excuse them. They can be quite...interesting, for lack of a better word."

"I think they're refreshing. They add life to this little cul-de-sac. I can tell I'm going to like it here." She paused for a moment to look around and take in her surroundings a bit more. "But you should run along before they leave you behind. We're the Brown family, by the way."

"It certainly was a pleasure to meet you, Miss Brown."

"You can call me Nichole." She offered him a wink.

After exchanging another handshake and goodbyes, Double D was on his way, going as fast as his weak little legs could carry him.
