Double D was lying on his bed and his hat lay on his chest. He went through what almost happened to him over and over again in his head.

"Not good, not good, NOT GOOD!" Double D said to himself as he used both hands to pull at his short dark-blue hair, "How could I let this happen!"

*FLASHBACK*

It was a nice and peaceful day in the cul-de-sac. Double D was sitting under a tree and reading a book on bugs. The other kids were going about their own thing. Kevin was doing some tricks on his bike, Nazz was skipping rope, Jonny was playing chess with Plank, Rolf was doing chores, and Sarah was playing house with Jimmy. It was a pretty normal day in his mind, except for the fact that Eddy and Ed were nowhere to be seen. Double D figured they were probably goofing off somewhere. He continued to read, being completely unaware that they were hiding in the tree that he was under. Eddy had a very devilish prank in mind, which involves a fishing pole and Edd's hat. Eddy slowly lowered the hook and was able to snag it onto his hat. He then quickly reeled in the line, pulling Double D's hat right off his head. He dropped his book and covered his head. Mainly the part if his head that almost made it look like he was covering his ears. Double D looked up to see Ed and Eddy laughing while Eddy was still holding the fishing rod with Edd's hat attached to it.

"Eddy, give it back!" Double D yelled.

"Ah come'on Edd, lighten up!" Eddy said.

"I'm serious! Give me back my hat!" Double D said as he was beginning to lose control of himself.

"No!" Eddy said somewhat jokingly.

"Give it BACK!" Double D said finally losing control.

Unseen by the cul-de-sac kids, Edd had knocked Eddy out of the tree with one of his "invisible" hands. Eddy landed flat on his back, not seriously hurt but left baffled by what had just happened. The rod landed right in front of Double D. He quickly grabbed his hat and ran straight for his house.

*END FLASHBACK*

Double D then glided his finger tips across the horn-like protrusions that were growing out of his skull, "It would have been bad enough, had they seen my horns, but also had managed to see my extra appendages? I can't even imagine what woulda happened. I can't allow myself to lose control like that again or I'll end up like—"

Suddenly, the doorbell rang. Double D quickly put his hat back on and headed downstairs. He figured it was Ed and Eddy either coming to apologize or to ask about what had happened. As he came to the door, he looked through the peep-hole. What he saw sent him into shock. A girl a lot older than he was standing in front of the door. She had long pinkish hair, was wearing a BIG T-shirt that managed to hide her exposed body, and had horns similar to Double D's on her head. He realized that it was his older half-sister. In a flash, he opened the door and stared at her.

"Lucy?" he said in shock.
