It Fell From the Sky
Welcome to the sequel of my Ed, Edd n' Eddy fic: We Have Your Brother! I hope for this one to be my longest and greatest Ed, Edd n' Eddy fic yet! If you haven't read my past EENE fic, you should because you might not understand some of the things in this fic. Anyways, please R&R!
A warm, sunny day graced the cul-de-sac, beckoning the kids outdoors to have fun. However, the cul-de-sac was empty with no kids playing in it. Instead, the kids were in the woods, crowded around Eddy, who stood at the base of one of the many shade-providing trees.
"Step right up folks, you know you want to!" exclaimed Eddy. "It's time for the greatest game on the face of the earth: Find the Ed!"
Sarah folded her arms and glared at Eddy. "Oh yeah? What makes it so great?"
Jonny nodded in agreement. "Yeah, and what are we supposed to do?"
"Ed has hidden himself somewhere in the woods," explained Eddy while holding up an empty jar. "With a small fee of a quarter, you compete against the others to find Ed!"
"That's stupid!" replied Kevin. "I'm outta here!"
"But that's not all," added Eddy as Kevin walked away. "The one who finds Ed gets half the quarters in the jar!"
Kevin immediately rejoined the kids as they crowded closer to Eddy. "Really?"
The shortest Ed nodded. "It's that simple."
"I wanna play!" exclaimed Jimmy as he yanked a quarter out of his pocket.
Nazz nodded in agreement. "Yeah, me too!"
"Rolf shall be the victor of this contest!" said Rolf as he placed his quarter in the jar. Eddy shook the jar, producing music to his ears as he heard all the kids' quarters jingle inside. "Okay go!" The kids cheered aloud, racing deeper into the woods to find Ed.
Double D watched as Sarah tripped Jonny as he tried to hope over a bush. "What a wonderful idea Eddy! Sure, you might not get as much money, but it'll keep the kids coming back to more of our scams. By the way, I haven't seen Ed all day. Did he arrive while I was busy?"
"No, he's still at his house," replied Eddy. "This is the part when we split before the kids know they got tricked. It's jawbreaker time!"
The sock-headed Ed put his hands on his hips. "Eddy, for once can you do something that doesn't involve swindling the…" He looked up at the sky, his eyes growing wide. "Eddy, what's that?" Eddy looked up to see a large, fiery orb hurtling downward from high in the sky, soaring past the woods. It smashed into a pile of junk in the junkyard, causing the ground to shake as it dug into the earth.
"I-Is that a meteor?" asked Double D, his science-loving genes taking over. "Eddy, let's go see!"
"Seriously, why does stuff like this happen when we're about to buy jawbreakers?" grumbled Eddy.
Double D rolled his eyes. "You know, we could receive money for finding it." His small friend rushed past him, nearly knocking him over in the process.
By the time Double D arrived, Eddy and the rest of the kids were already there. They all stood, gazing at the sleek, metallic orb. It was larger than one of their houses.
"What do you think it could be?" asked Nazz."
"Maybe it's a message from the flesh-eating slugs of Jupiter's southern region!" exclaimed Ed. The kids looked at him quizzically.
"Ed, when did you get here?" asked Double D.
The tall Ed stood a moment in deep though before chuckling. "I ain't got a clue Double D."
Jonny looked at his wooden friend. "What's that plank? You wanna touch the space thing? Okay!" He extended the wooden board until it touched the metallic surface of the sphere. A metallic claw extended from it, grabbing Jonny and tossing him and Plank into the air. Jonny held Plank tight as he spun helplessly in the air before falling into the open mouth of the sphere. Five more arms popped out from the sphere, as well as two bug-like eyes and a large, circular mouth. The beast howled demonically, causing the kids to scream in fright.
Ed, however, giggled happily. "Cool, a Transformer! Transformers! Robots in the dis…"
"Run Lumpy!" shouted Eddy as he pulled Ed behind a stack of metallic waste. He turned to Double D. "Double D, can't you make something to, you know, kill it?"
"Eddy, we're dealing with technology from a different planet!" noted Double D. "I doubt anything in this junkyard can compare to what we're up against!" He sighed, picking up a scrap piece of metal next to him. "But I have to try! I just need you guys to keep it busy." The kids turned their attention to the monster as Jimmy and Sarah's screams reached their ears.
Jimmy cowered helplessly as the beast clutched him in one of his claws while Sarah struggled to free herself from her bonds. The beast quickly tossed them upwards, sharing the same fate as Jonny and Plank.
"Sarah!" yelled Ed as he ran at the beast. "You ate Sarah! Give me back my baby sister!" He began to pound the metallic creature with a combination of punches, kicks, and head butts. "Gimme back Sarah! If mom finds out, she's tell my dad and he'll just sit there watching TV and say 'not now, I just got home from work'!" The monster slammed his claws against both of Ed's sides, causing him to collapse. The creature simply scooped him up and flicked him into his mouth.
"We lost the big Ed boy!" shouted Rolf as he chucked a bottle at the monster, which simply bounced off of it.
Kevin growled with aggravation. "We're not doing anything to hurt it!" He picked up a broken pair of hedge trippers from the ground. "I'm going for the head, cover me!" He ran towards the right side of the octopus-like monster, climbing up the pile of trash and junk, the red hat-wearing kid aimed himself at the monster's head.
Meanwhile, back on the ground, Nazz grabbed a broken alarm clock, tossing it at the monster. It bounced off of its left eye, causing it to yelp with pain. Glaring at the blonde girl with its one good eye, he whipped one of its arms at her.
"Get off of me!" shouted Nazz as the monster pulled her into the air.
Although Kevin was originally aiming for the creature's head, he made a quick change of plans as Nazz's screams met his ears. "Leggo of her!" He slashed at the arm holding Nazz, only for another arm to grab him. With two captives in its grasp, the octopus chucked Nazz and Kevin into the air and swallowed them.
The foul beast shall pay for devouring my comrades!" shouted Rolf. "In the honor of my country, I shall defeat you, wretched scourge from the sky! Come Eddy, let us battle together!"
"I'll pass," replied Eddy as he cowered behind a stack of trash. However, Rolf was already rushing at the beast, a rust hoe in his hands. The monster grabbed the hoe, picking it up and Rolf, who still hung onto it. With a quick flick of its claws, Rolf lost his grip and plummeted into the jaws of the octopus monster. "Ed boys! Avenge Rolf!"
"Um, Double D," said Eddy nervously. "We could really use that handy invention of yours already."
"Just a quick adjustment," said Double D. "There, it's done!" The machine was only bout half the size of the monster, but it had a chainsaw attached to one arm and a sledgehammer on the other. A claw snaked its way towards Double D, grabbing him by the ankles.
Double D gave a yelp of dismay as the creature held him in the air. "Eddy, do something!" The monster tossed Double D into the air and into him mouth.
Eddy cracked his knuckles. "Time to do some damage!" He climbed into the control box in the center of the machine. "Hmm, it's kinda comfy. It even has a cup holder!" He turned his focus back to the monster, gripping the handles that controlled the arms of the machine. "Let's see you try to eat me now!"
The octopus monster swiped at Eddy with one of his arms, only for Eddy to slice the arm off with the chainsaw arm of his machine. The monster howled in pain, grabbing Eddy by the machine's leg and pulling him close. Using the arm with the sledgehammer, Eddy whacked the monster in the head, stunning it momentarily. With the monster disoriented, Eddy took the liberty of cutting off another arm. The creature screeched in agony once more, unable to do anything as Eddy went to work on the remaining arms. With a final slice, the creature's last arm plummeted to the ground.
"Ha! Take that!" taunted Eddy. "What are ya gonna do now?" The octopus creature began to vibrate briefly before six new arms popped out of its sides. It gave a howl of anger as it glared at Eddy.
"What? No fair!" whined Eddy. The monster gripped Eddy's machine's arms and legs with its arms, pulling them off with a quick tug. With one of its free arms, it grasped Eddy tightly, tossing him into the air.
"Aw man," groaned Eddy before falling into the dark abyss of the monster's mouth.
Eddy moaned softly as he slowly began to open his eyes. Picking his head off the cool, concrete ground, he looked around the room. The rest of the kids were there too and were beginning to wake up. "Where are we?"
I hope everyone enjoyed the chapter! I'll try to make this fic even more action packed than my last one! Please R&R!
