Ch.1

Going it alone

This is my first Ed, Edd n' Eddy fic, so please go easy on me and R&R!

Double D was in his room re-alphabetizing his bookshelf. Not only did he love reading, but he also loved to be organized.

"Alright, just one last book" he said to himself. He pushed the last book into the end of the bookshelf. "There, Z for zoology."

His door swung open, crashing into the wall and causing the bookshelf in collapse on top of Double D.

Ed ran over to the squashed Double D and waved a piece of paper in his face. "Double D! Look what me and Eddy found!"

"Ed, could you get this off of me?" asked the choking Double D. "This is actually very heavy!"

Eddy punched Ed in the head and grabbed the piece of paper out of Ed's hands. "Take a look sockhead! There's gonna be a downhill go-cart race in three days, and the winner gets a thousand bucks! We've gotta enter!"

"Yes, that's nice Eddy" said Double D. "But can one of you please get this thing off of me!" Ed picked up the fallen bookshelf as if it were as light as a feather and flung it away, crashing through Double D's window.

"See? All better!" said Ed as he dragged Double D to his feet.

"Thank you Ed" said Double D. "But you've destroyed my window in the process!"

"You welcome Double D!" exclaimed Ed.

"Who cares?" asked Eddy as he gave the flier for the go-cart race to Double D. "We've got a race to prepare for! Ed, you can get the parts for the cart, Sockhead, you can build it, and I'll be the one cruisin' thought the finish line!"

"Eddy it seems you've overlooked one of the rules" said Double D.

"Overlooked?" asked Eddy. "What are you talkin' about?"

Double D pointed to one of the sentences on the paper. "It says here that the cart must be designed, built, and raced by the same person or else you'll face disqualification!"

"So what?" asked Eddy. "How are they supposed to know who built it?"

Double D took another look at the flier. "It says here that we also have to submit a tape showing that shows you doing all the work."

"Why'd they make that part of the rules?" asked Eddy. "It's so stupid!"

"The rules may seem absurd to you" explained Double D. "But those are the rules, and if you want a chance to win the thousand dollars, you're going to have to follow them."

"Fine! I'll do it myself!" shouted Eddy. "I'll win the race while you two watch me from the sidelines!"

"Um, but Eddy" said Ed. "I wanna enter too!"

"What?" spat Eddy as he grabbed Ed by the neck of his shirt. "What do ya mean you're enterin'?"

Ed pulled out a comic book and shoved it into Eddy's face. "I must buy the Galactic Space Pirates DVD, which includes all eight seasons of the TV show along with deleted scenes, director's commentary, five hours of extras, character interviews, and a fifteen minute trailer for its upcoming movie! Galactic Space Pirates DVD good for Ed!"

"That DVD costs a thousand dollars?" asked Double D.

"No" answered Ed. "I'm using the rest of the money to but jawbreakers and gravy! Yum!"

Eddy burst out into laughing. "Ha! Like you could even build a cart! I guess Sockhead can watch on the sidelines while I smoke you and win the thousand dollars for myself!"

"Not quite Eddy" said Double D. "I'm afraid I'm going to have to beat the both of you!"

"What are you talkin' about, sockhead?" snarled Eddy.

"Well, you see" explained Double D. "I'm saving up for new science equipment, and this go-cart race will give me just enough to do it!"

"Well, if that's how it is, I'm crushing the both of you!" shouted Eddy. "I'm outta here!" He stormed out of the room, slamming the door behind him.

"Oh dear" said Double D. "I hope Eddy's alright. What do you think Ed?" Ed just stood with a blank look on his face.

"Ed, are you alright?' asked Double D?"

"I must make my go-cart Double D!" yelled Ed as he pushed past him. Ed dove though what was left of Double D's window, breaking the remainder of the glass and ran home.

Double D look about at his wrecked room. "Mother and Father won't be happy about this! I might have to use some of the winnings from the go-cart race to repair my room."

That was my first chapter, hope you liked it! Ch.2 is coming soon! R&R!
