Yep, it's me again. I know my stories usually suck, but I really am trying to put work into these things. So R&R, tell me what I need to improve yadda yadda.
It was no secret that Kevin Dwayne McCready, hated Ed, Edd, And Eddy. Always spoiling the fun, always trying to take his friends' hard earned money, with pathetic, hand-crafted items, or some thrill ride that puts someone in the hospital. The Eds said that they were giving up "scamming" the kids after their showdown with Eddy's brother, Jason, and they all became close friends. Up until the first year of highschool that is. Eddy had found out that Kevin and Nazz were sleeping together, and when he revealed it to the school, Kevin challenged Eddy to a fight. So Eddy accepted, not thinking of the consequences, as well not realizing how much stronger Kevin became since their last fight. Eddy was hospitalized, and Nazz broke up with Kevin the next day. Kevin, once again hated Eddy, But Edd and Ed he later began to hate for other reasons. Ed accidently set his (Kevin's) house on fire, and Edd devised ways for Eddy to avoid, and sometimes even get back at Kevin. But that is the past. The children of Peach Creek, New Jersey, are now 16. Today is the final day of school for the year. And Kevin is about to do something that will change his life.
Kevin had an evil smile on his face as lunchtime came around. He walked to the lunch line, and the cook asked, "Pizza, or chicken?"
"Pizza please." Kevin replied.
Kevin walked over to the table where Rolf, Jonny, and some fellows from the football team, were sitting, and he sat down. Kevin has changed some over the years. His hair is like it was in Every Which Way But Ed, except it is shorter in the back. He has a small patch of facial hair on the chin, and he no longer wears his cap. He now has ALOT more muscle, and is now about 6ft 1". his green shirt has been replaced with a punisher tee-shirt, and his shorts are have been replaced with ripped up jeans. He also has black gloves with the fingers cut off.
"Hey guys! Wanna join in on a start of summer prank?" Kevin asked.
"Thank you no, Rolf must tend to Rolf's seasonal chores, as the soil speaks of a fine harvest this year!" Rolf replied.
"No thanks Kev! Me and parents are gonna wave signs outside of the nuclear plant later! Probably gonna be a repeat of every other year though." Jonny stated with sadness.
"What's wrong with every other year?" Kevin asked.
"We protest, the workers stage a shutdown, mom and dad get wasted to celebrate and forget the past week, the workers continue. It follows a formula." Jonny explained.
"Whatever. Just don't tell anyone there's gonna be a prank. Okay?" Kevin requested.
"You have Rolf's word, that Rolf will not say a word!" Said Rolf.
"My lips are zipped!" Said Jonny.
Later that day the Eds were in Edd's laboratory, where Edd was showing off his latest, invention. After about a minute of staring, Eddy spoke up.
"What the hell is it?"
"I'm glad you asked. It's a stasis pod!" Edd answered.
"What's a spacious pod?" Ed asked.
"STASIS pod, Ed. It's a machine that allows the subject to be preserved without aging for to a maximum of 120 years, without food or water." Edd explained.
"So it freezes people?" Eddy asked as if he for once had a clue as to what Edd meant.
"No. It exposes the body to a type of liquid glass that crystalizes at sub-zero temperatures and encases the cells that make us age, as well as encasing the subject in the "Cryoglass". But technically yes, it does freeze people." Edd explained.
"OOH! OOH! Like the Cryosleep chambers in 2001 A SPACE ODYSSEY?" Ed inquired, once again connecting reality, his to Sci-fi fantasies.
"Only similar to them, Ed. I suggest you two return home. I have to put the finishing touches on this." Ed and Eddy returned home, and Edd got on to the Stasis Pod's computer.
PRESERVE FOR [50] YEARS
INITIATE PRESERVATION [WHEN SUBJECT ENTERS POD]
Were the settings he put on it."Well,at dawn I will enter a perhaps happier life, in the future." Edd said to himself.
"But why would you wish to do this master?" Said an electronic voice.
Edd looked down at the desk, before turning to face a 4 ft tall android.
"I've told you countless times before, Albert. And I know that your memory pool isn't on the fritz again." Edd said.
Albert was the android Edd built three years ago. He mostly kept it a secret, which was fairly easy, since his parents, worked 14 hours a day, on weekdays. Albert had a circular brass body, humanoid robotic arms, and a computer screen, for a face.
"I am aware of this master, but you have friends here, your parents work all these hard hours, so that you may be with them, and judging by your percentages of sweat, pulse, blood pressure, and other things the author of this is too lazy to research, you sometimes enjoy when this "Marie Kanker" stalks you, like a leopard stalks it's prey. Not only that, but a catastrophy could take your life before you wake! Would you not like to live out the years that go by?" Albert spoke.
"Forgive me Albert, but we will not have this conversation again. Set to usual mode of security, and we will speak in the morning."
It was 9:17PM And Kevin was preparing to execute his prank. He was getting set up listening to Electric Light Orchestra's "All Over The World" When he got a call from Nazz.
"Hello?" He said when he answered the phone.
"Hey. I overheard you at lunchtime today. What are you going to do to the Eds, Kevin?" Nazz demanded he tell her.
"If I told you, then you would try and stop me." Kevin replied.
"Damn straight. You can't torment them forever." Said Nazz.
"You know that we were equally humiliated when the flathead spilled our little secret." Said Kevin.
"We were young and stupid Kevin. And we still are. And now that think about it you could've very easily gotten me knocked up. In a way, what Eddy did was good for us." Nazz negotiated.
"You win... Last month, Jonny, Rolf, and I went back to the old gag factory, to do some scavenging. The coolest shit I found, was pack of a dozen cherry bombs. Word on the street is that Double Dweeb has an invention that could get him a scholarship for a private college. Those cherry bombs, were going into me blowing that invnetion sky high." Kevin explained to Nazz.
"Don't do it Kevin. Please. For me." Said Nazz.
*SIGH* "Fine. I won't. I'll find another use for the cherry bombs." Kevin lied.
"Thanks. And I really think you should talk to Eddy. Without it having to do with beating the crap outta him. Just try and be friendly, get stonned together for all I care." Nazz replied.
"Will do. I gotta go. Talk to you later." Kevin said before hanging up.
"Oh Kevin. I know the kind of person you are, and yet for some reason I still trust you." Nazz spoke mentally as she fell asleep.
Had Kevin listened to Nazz, he could've lived a fairly happy life with her, yet he had to be stubborn.
He had gone outside at around 2 in morning, in his usually apparell. He managed to get in the house via a window opened from the outside. Since it was such a nice neighborhood, nobody bothered locking any windows. Little did Kevin know that Albert was activated by a motion detector and when Albert detected Kevin with his sensors, he (Albert) thought that he (Kevin) was a burgler, so he began firing at Kevin with a Bolt Gun that Edd had made himself. Kevin was able to dodge most of the blasts, unaware that they weren't lethal.
"What the hell?" Edd shouted as he woke up.
Edd had secretly soundproofed he parents' bedroom, in case he accidently made something exlode, so they were oblivious as to what was happening. Edd rushed to the basement, in his nighttime apparell and he threw the door open. Albert took his sensors off of Kevin and onto Edd, but it was too late. Before Edd could do anything, Albert fired a bolt that Kevin was unable to dodge, and Kevin flew into the Stasis Pod.
"CRAP, CRAP, CRAP, CRAP, CRRAAAAAAAAPPP!" Edd yelled as he ran over to the Stasis Pod.
Kevin was dizzy and half-blind, so he did not have the strength, nor the time to escape, before the pod was locked. Kevin was covered in clear, thick, gel. As the pod got colder the began to harden, and contract. In a matter of seconds, the gel was crystallized and Kevin was cryogenically frozen.
"Uh-oh." Was all Edd could say for several minutes.
"I have assesed the intruder, master." Said Albert.
"THAT WAS KEVIN, ALBERT! YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO RECOGNIZE HIS FACIAL PATTERNS!" Edd screamed.
"Forgive me master, but the facial patterns you downloaded into me, are two years out of date! I was unaware that this was Kevin!" Said Albert.
Edd did not listen. instead he began to dial Eddy's cell phone number.
"Ugh... Sockhead, it's 3 in the morning! Why are calling me?" Eddy asked.
"EDDY! WAKE ED! SOMETHING HORRIBLE HAS HAPPENED!" Edd yelled and ended the call.
Usually, Eddy would just go back to sleep, but people change over four years. Edd quickly explained what had happened during the past hour, and told them to gather their fellow Peach Creekers, at dawn.
"So you are telling Rolf, that this chamber electricity, bolts, and welded metal, has frozen Kevin-boy until fifty years from the present?" Rolf asked.
"I'm afraid so Rolf." Said Edd.
"This computer says that there's an emergency awaken sequence! Let's just do that!" Nazz demanded.
"The emergency awaken sequence will kill him! When I was first testing the Stasis Pod that was the first thing I tried." Edd began.
"Kill him how?" Jonny asked.
"The cryoglass needs to breakdown overtime before it can be melted. If it's brokendown too quickly, then it'll rip him to bits beginning at a microscopic level." Edd explained.
Soon everyone's parents found out what happened, and so did the media. Edd then vowed, that when Kevin awoke, he would guide him through the future that would be the year 2052. It would be years for Edd, But only minutes, for Kevin. The screen showed transitions of seasons changing, people moving in and out of houses, those houses begining to fall apart, a gate being built around Edd's house, futuristic gang battles in the cul-de-sac, and skyscarpers being built, one of which had the title BraxCorp and since Edd's last was Braxton it suggested that it was his company. Edd was soon to return to his old neighborhood, which was now a part of the new city's historical district, to introduce Kevin to the future.
