Author's Notes: Just a project inspired when I got bored. While I have gotten a bad case of writer's block for my Edventure II fanfic, ideas for this one are fresh in my mind, and how could I let inspiration go to waste? So then, what to say about this one? Well, another crossover, but this time, I have mixed Ed, Edd'n Eddy with Zelda: Majora's Mask. My first chapter may be a bit boring, but I do hope you enjoy.

Edventure: Trouble In Termina

Chapter 1: Thieves from another World

Disclaimer: I don't own Ed, Edd'n Eddy or Zelda: Majora's Mask

…tick, tock, tick, tock…

The clock was the only sound in the otherwise very monotonous classroom. Everyone in class awaited silently. Double D sat down in his own desk, with his desk buried deep within a book. Ed, of course, sitting right behind him, was just living life in his own little world, facedown on an upside-down and drool ridden text book. Eddy, as usual, made his little tower of textbooks in the front of the desk to make sure the teacher didn't catch him catching some "Z"s. The Kankers all sat in a bored fashion, not reading, but simply lounging. Rolf and Kevin sat in the far corner, talking in a whisper amongst themselves.

"Let's see now…" Double D thought. "…the equation for time…E 9.87sin(2B) - 7.53cos(B) - 1.5sin(B)-"

"Now class, reading time is over." the teacher in the front of the classroom stated. Everyone looked up… well, almost everyone at least.

The teacher began to walk down the rows. "…sorry, I know how much you like to read, EDDY!" the teacher shouted, before taking his pointing stick and whipping it at Eddy's desk. The startled ed jumped and shouted "I'm up, mommy, I'm up!"

The class burst out into laughter as the smallest of the Eds suddenly realized where he was.

"Nice one, Eddy!" Kevin exclaimed, laughing.

Eddy growled with a blush on his face. The teacher walked back to the front of the room as the class slowly quieted down. Eventually, they all came to a silence, and for a brief amount of time, there was nothing but silence aside from the ticking of the clock on the wall.

The teacher looked around before continuing. "Yes, next week's topic will be time. We will be learning all about the amazing fields of time. So everyone, for homework, you will have a page essay on the mysteries of time."

The class all gave an exasperated groan.

"Oh, it not math or anything!" the teacher said. "My, if you kids actually went on and did something for once, you would all be getting the grades you get… well, aside from Eddward here."

Double D gave a smile, as the others all looked away in partial disgust. "Thank you, teacher."

"You are quite welcome, my star student." the teacher replied. "So then, all of you, you must write a single page. On this page, you will tell me what you think of time. How you think it can be used properly, and how you feel about it."

The school bell suddenly gave a ring. The class cheered and began to walk out the door.

"Goodbye everyone!' the teacher said. "And I hope you all have a good three-day weekend!"


"WHOO!" Eddy shouted. He, Ed, and Double D were all walking from the school and back toward the cul-de-sac. "Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, all off!"

"Yeah, a big fun weekend, like a vacation, just like old times, eh chums?" Ed asked, trying to hug them all. Both Eddy and Double D dodged. "On no, big guy, you ain't gonna break my ribs, not before vacation. Save it for when I need an excuse from class."

"Hug for Double D?" Ed asked. Double D gave a small gasp. "…why, thank you for the offer, but I am… well, not ready, and I need to get my gloves first." Ed shrugged.

"Whew…" Eddy and Double D thought at the same time.

"So, fellows…" Double D said as they walked. "How about that essay we have to write? The one about time? How do you two feel about it?"

"Meh, big deal. It's time." Eddy said.

"Did you know that some scientists even think there is a way to use the equation of time to manipulate it? What babble, eh fellows?" Double D asked.

"Oh, like in that movie: I WAS A TIME-DUDE?" Ed asked.

"No Ed, it's impossible to travel in time." Double D said. "I feel of time as a history book of things that have happened and things that will happen. Isn't that exciting?"

"…let me think…" Eddy said. They all stood there for a bit. After what seemed like a minute or so: "No." Double D frowned as Ed simply gave a laugh, of course not understanding what was going on.

"What I do know is that we got about a zillion scams to run this weekend!" Eddy shouted. He grabbed both of the Eds and twisted their heads to face the cul-de-sac. "See that? We'll be making a fortune off this place if it takes all three days!"

Double D broke free of Eddy's grip. His head was already aching. He knew that more of this annoyance was bound to come his way, so he threw caution to the wind: "…and how do you plan to do that?"

"Ah, I was hoping you'd ask!" Eddy shouted. "Come on over to my garage, boys, because I got the scam of a lifetime!"


"…um… what is that?" Double D asked.

Eddy brought them to his garage. There was a set of masks lying on the floor. All made of simplistic art supplies, and various in shapes, sized, and colors.

"…Are these from the art room? Last I saw them, they were on display." Double D said, stroking his chin. "Though if memory serves they were reported stolen from the room…" his voice began to grow suspicious. "…last week."

"Aw, it was just a prank." Eddy said.

"And now you want to sell stolen property?" Double D asked.

"Aw, they wont miss them, they are just stupid masks." Eddy said.

"Oh, oh! Look at this!" Ed shouted. He reached for one of the masks on the floor. "Oh, is this my monster mask?" Ed asked. He was referring to one of the masks Double D had made a while ago for a costume that made Ed believe he was a monster.

"Ed, please don't wear that thing again." Double D said. "The last time you did, you really-"

"Oh, please?" Ed asked. "Come on!"

"Quit it, both of you. We all got masks to sell and none of you are helping!" Eddy shouted. "Double D, go home and get some stuff for a stall. Ed, go and get all the comic books you've got! Meet me back here and we'll set up!" Eddy said. He took all of the masks and placed them into a sac. He gave a swerve and hoisted them all onto his back. "

Ed ran off laughing in the direction of his home.

"Double D, that means you too, now get goin' already!" Eddy shouted.

"…oh, fine, anywhere to see where this little Edventure goes." Double D sighed. He began to walk out of the garage and toward the street.

He was a few feet away from Eddy's house when he suddenly heard a quick moving sound. Though hard to describe, it was like the sound of something rushing through the air, and added to it, the sound of an echoing vibraphone. Double D gasped and swerved to his right, that's where a light post was. In his haste, he could have sword to have caught sight of what appeared to be a stream of white light, and another of light purple. They both flew behind the light post and vanished.

Double D shook his head. "…what in Sam Hill was that?" he asked. Double D tilted his head, with the gravity tugging at his sock hat. …my word, I hope I am not seeing things."


By afternoon, Eddy had the stall set up at his house. It was nothing short of the usual little ramshackle stall with a mis-spelt sign "Mascs." Eddy had set all the masks on the table, about ten or so. Ed had his face in a comic book while Double D stood there, trying his best not to show how embarrassed he was.

The other neighborhood kids all showed up to the spot.

"So, this is what you were talking about?" Sarah asked. "Not a big deal."

"It's art, what fun!" Jimmy said.

"They are cute…" Nazz said. "…but don't these masks look a little familiar.

Eddy gasped and looked toward Double D, who only replied with an "I-told-you-so" expression. Eddy looked back, sweating a little.

"They remind Rolf of Rolf's old country!" Rolf shouted.

"So, how 'bout it?" Eddy asked. "All here for just a quarter."

"Not interested." Kevin said.

"Oh, wait!" Eddy shouted, hold up his hand. "…uh, Ed!" Eddy shouted. "Why don't you tell them about the masks?"

Ed looked at Eddy. Eddy quickly pointed at a page of Ed's comic books.

"Oh yeah!" Ed said. Double D sighed and looked away.

"In the void of space, Zorba the two headed space mutant…" Ed started.

Double D looked into the sky, as the sun was already setting. "…time goes by so fast."

"…what?" Kevin asked.

"So, how about it?" Eddy asked, holding up the monster mask. "The Zorba Mask for a measly quarter?" he held out an empty jar. Kevin sighed.

"Well, this is going nowhere fast." Double D thought.

Suddenly, there was the sound of a whoosh! Double D awoke from his trance. Everyone looked around for the source.

"…what was that?" Jimmy asked.

WOOSH!

"It's the curse of Evil Tim!" Ed shouted.

"Ed, give it a rest!" Eddy shouted, also trying to find the source.

WOOSH!

This time, it had made itself visible. Two streaks of light, one white and purple were zooming to and from around them.

"It's that thing that I saw before." Double D thought.

With a sudden bang, the two of them rushed through the crowd of kids. They hit Jonny first. He gave a yelp of surprise, falling to the ground and releasing his wooden friend. Both of them hit the pavement at once. Everyone looked over at him. He was clutching his stomach, giving a moan.

But before anyone could say anything, there was another bang. Nazz gave a shriek and slowly fell down as well. Kevin immediately rushed to her side. "Nazz! Are you ok?"

Eddy now looked serious. "What the heck is goin' on here Double D?"

Double D looked near a state of panic. "I honestly don't know!"

With another bang fell another kid. This one was Sarah. She gave a loud yell before fall to the floor in agony. Jimmy and Ed both rushed to her side. "SARAH!"

This time, the purple and white streaks struck both Ed and Jimmy. They screamed and fell on the ground.

"Show thyselves, you impudent evil!" Rolf shouted. Though upon those words, he was quickly struck. He spiraled in the air and hit the ground.

Kevin gasped. "I got to go and get help!" He jumped on his bike, only to sudden get struck. He fell from the bike and hit the pavement almost instantly.

"Double D, do something!" Eddy shouted, grabbing a hold of Double D's shirt. Though without warning, Eddy suddenly got struck. He gave a loud panicked scream, flying through the air, taking Double D down with him. Eddy immediately fell unconscious, though it seemed Double D was still awake. Though for the risk of getting hurt, he pretended to have been knocked out.

"What is going on?" Double d asked, still shaking in nervousness.

The two streaks suddenly came to a halt. Double D caught a look at them. They were both glowing balls, one was white, the other purple. Each of the floating balls, no larger then tennis balls, had four fairy-esque wings, and were flying over the fallen kids.

Double D gasped. "I must be seeing things!" he thought. "…what on earth are those…?"

Suddenly, there was the sound of something walking toward them. Double D opened one of his eyes a bit further to see what it was. Suddenly, at the front of the stall, a floating mask appeared. Double D wanted to scream in terror. Not only was the sudden appearance scary enough, but the mask was a horrendous looking thing. It was in the shape of a purple heart, with spikes coming out of the sides, and two huge, orange eyes. It was like seeing a monster. There was just something about those horrendous, piercing eyes that made him want to scream out in terror.

Then, something formed around the mask. A body. It looked like a scarecrow, made of straw and wood, with raggy old red cloths and a red hat.

"…Oh boy, you two fairies did great!" the masked scarecrow one said.

The two floating winged orbs both giggled, giggled of all things! "Thanks, skull kid!" the white one seemed to say in a female voice.

"Skull Kid? Fairies?" Double D thought.

The one apparently known as the Skull Kid walked toward the counter and looked at the masks.

"Let's see if these little kids had anything good on them." the Skull Kid said. He led the two fairies toward the countertop, and picked up a few of the masks.

"…oh, these are cool!" the purple fairy said.

"What do you care, Tael?" the white one said. "There's no way that big thing will fit on your face."

"Knock it off, sis." the purple fairy that replied to "Tael" said. "Why do you always have to wreck my fun?"

"Just being realistic." Tael's sister said.

"Tatl, please." Tael said.

The white fairy that was named Tatl sighed. "I swear, I'll never figure you out."

Double D watched as these fairies continued to talk and the Skull Kid searched the rest of the masks.

"…whatever they are, they seem to have dropped their guard." Double D thought. "…if I can sneak past them, I could try to attack from behind. Oh, but these three knocked out everyone else. What kinds of other things could they be capable of?"

Nonetheless, Double D slowly began to crawl on the ground, as disgusting as it was for him to do so. "Messy, messy, messy..."

The Skull kid picked up the masks and placed them in Eddy's sac. Then, moving on to the kids, he began to reach and take things of their person: "Sarah's Earrings, A barrette from Nazz, a shovel from Rolf, a key from Jimmy, Jonny's wooden friend "Plank", and a coin from Kevin.

"…this should do for the spoils." The Skull kid said.

"Ahem…"

The skull kid and the fairies turned around and spotted Double standing right there, with his arms folded, tapping his foot.

"Ah!" the Skull Kid shouted in surprise.

"…care to tell me why whatever you three are stealing from my friends?"

The three of them remained silent, merely starring at Double D. Double D decided he would rather not wait for this Skull Kid to act, Double D suddenly gave a yell and lunged at the Skull kid.

To his amazement and shock, the skull kid jumped very high and very fast. Double D fell on the ground, missing altogether. He turned around and spotted the masked scarecrow with the two little glowing balls in tow.

Double D gasped. He knew he could not let them get away, not now. He ran toward Kevin and grabbed his bike, but as he did, Kevin grabbed his foot.

"…no… way… dork… You… can't… ride my bike." he said.

"Sorry, Kevin, I must! I'll return it soon! I'll call someone to come and bring help!" Double D shouted. He jumped on Kevin's bike and pedaled off after the three thieves.

"Come… back." Kevin moaned, but fell back down.

Double D sighed. "I'm sorry!"

He then looked ahead and spotted the three of them rushing into the woods.

Double D kicked harder on the pedal, making it jump the curb and race into the woods. Thanks to the bike's outstanding wheels, he was able to through the rough terrain with ease.

"It's no wonder Kevin likes this bike so much." Double D thought.

He could no longer see the thieves, but kept on going.

"How did they escape so fast? Who are they… what are they? Where are they from? I have never seem creature like those in my life. Would be so amazed if I wasn't so ticked!"

Double D continued to race deeper and deeper into the woods, determined to find them…


Night had fallen now, casting the woods in darkness. Double D had not only lost the thieves, he had gotten lost himself.

"Great." he said, but continued to pedal. His school backpack, which he never bothers to remove, shook with every bump he made as he continued to speed down the pathways. As he turned another corner, he spotted some fog up ahead.

"…what is that? Fog?" Double D thought. "Strange, very strange. I have never seen such a strange formation of clouds before… but since the thieves were strange, and this cloud is strange, then maybe if I go in, I'll find the thieves!"

Double D pedaled at full speed into the cloud. As he raced through, he felt a sudden rush. It were as though he was suddenly flying, in a way. The bike sounded like the wheels where whizzing through air. Double D felt a sudden gush of wind against him as well. He let one hand go of the bike handles to grasp onto his hat. As he did, he had to close his eyes to protect them against the force of the wind.

"What is going on?" Double D thought, beginning to panic. "…did I hit a jump?"

His questions were answered as he could suddenly hear the sound of the tires of the bike hit the ground. He opened his eyes and saw himself emerging from the cloud, and into an unfamiliar part of the woods. Double D was still holding onto his hat, as he looked too and fro.

"Where am I? I have never seen these woods before!"

In his distraction, the Sockhead failed to look where he was going. He suddenly struck something, causing himself to crash. He separated from the bike, which flew and skid on the grassy ground. Double D struck the ground and sighed.

He looked back to see what it was he had hit and gave a gasp.

There, lying down on the ground was a boy, no older then he was. This was a boy dressed in green. He had a green tunic and brown boots, and a strange green hat that in a way resembled Double D's sock hat. He also had an old-style shield with strange designs and a small sword. This boy's blonde hair that was exposed from the outer rims of his hat was a mess. It seemed he was recently hit.

"Oh my word, I am so sorry!" Double D shouted, rushing to held the boy. Though as he got a closer look, Double D gasped. This boy had very strange eyes, pointed ears resembling that of an elf's.

"…uh… yeah, I'm fine." the boy said, slowly getting up. He shook his head.

Double D watched as the boy suddenly took off running deeper into the woods.

"Wait!" Double D shouted. "You're injured, you need to stay off your feet!"

"Sorry, there is no time!" the green-garbed boy shouted. "A skull kid and two fairies just stole my horse and ocarina! I have to go and stop them!"

"WAIT!" Double D shouted.

The boy stopped and turned around. "What is it?"

"Was it a guy with an evil looking mask?" Double D asked.

"Yeah." the boy replied. "Have you seen him?"

"I am in here chasing the rapscallion!" Double D shouted. "He attack and stole from my friends!"

"He gets around, doesn't he?" the boy said.

Double D reached for Kevin's bike and jumped back on. "Come on, I'll give you a ride."

"…um, what is that?" the boy asked with a confused look.

Double D cocked an eyebrow. "Why, this is a bicycle. Surely, you know of a bike?"

The boy looked blank for a moment. "…I'm sorry, no."

Double D gasped.

"And where did you get those strange cloths?" the boy asked. "…and your ears, they are so round, not pointed at all. Where are you from?"

Double D was astonished. "…uh, peach Creek."

"Where is that?" the boy asked curiously.

"Uh, USA? …Earth?" Double D asked, almost sarcastically.

"…USA?" the boy asked. "And what is this Earth?"

Double D gasped. "…my word… you have either a serious case of amnesia, or you are not of this planet."

"Or you are not." the boy said.

Double D shook his head. "Impossible, I am still in the woods. Yes, still in the woods just a few blocks from my house, I must be-"

"You are in the Lost Woods." the boy said. "There's no village for miles."

Double D's mouth was wide open. "Now look-"

"Excuse me, we're letting the thief get away!" the boy shouted.

Double D gasped. "Right! Come on!"

The boy jumped on Kevin's bike. Double D turned the pedals and sped off, toward a nearby tunnel.

The boy looked curiously at the strange machine. "…so this is a bike? Very weird."

"You are not to common yourself." Double D said, panting as he pedaled.

"Actually, my name is Link. I come from Kokori Forest." the boy said.

"Double D of Peach Creek." Double D quickly introduced himself.

"Ok, Double D." Link said. "Let's keep going."

Double D pedaled through the tunnel with great haste. At the end of it was another area surrounded by trees, with a huge tree on the opposing side with a hole leading inside of it.

"There, try there!" Link shouted.

Double D nodded and rushed toward a jump. The bike kicked off a jump and launched through the air. Both of them screamed they flew through the air right into the tunnel in the tree. At first, they were riding in darkness. Suddenly, Link cried: "LOOK OUT!"

Double D realized why. Up ahead was a ledge, which led to a bottomless pit as far as they could tell. He screamed and slammed the braked as hard as he could. The tires screeched and smoke appeared behind the bike, but to no avail. The wheels jumped from the ledge. The next thing either of them knew, both Double D and Link were falling into the dark void below…


Author's Notes: And don't worry, it's not going to be an all "Double D" fanfic either. The other Peach Creek kids will play a role, especially Eddy and Ed, of course! More on the way, but in the meantime, please review!
