The Restless Dream of You

(My Entry for Yami-Shin's Contest on dA)

Summary: Note, if you are not too comfortable with Yaoi (Don't worry, it's nothing too hardcore if you decide to read; just a bit of fluff), then I suggest you should not read this story. While in detention, Eddy has a strange nightmare about Double D. Can he stop the nightmare before it comes true?

Disclaimer: I do NOT own Ed, Edd, 'n' Eddy at all! That's as straightforward as I can say it.

Chapter 1: The Detention and the Strange Dream

It was a somewhat beautiful fall afternoon here in the little community of Peach Creek as we zoom in on one of the local schools; Peach Creek Jr. High. And it is in the detention hall of this school where we start this story. We see a lone student sitting in the detention hall, currently on the verge of sleeping.

He was a boy that seemed to be just a smidge too short for his age of thirteen and had only three, long strands of dark blue hair on his head and had foggy, ice blue eyes. He wore a yellow t-shirt that went right to his waistline. The shirt had a purple collar and a red stripe coming down the right side of his shirt. He wore baggy blue jeans with a silver wallet chain coming out of his front left pocket and also wore red tennis shoes.

His name is Eddy Skipper Wendell (AN: Wendell is the last name that I came up with for him). He is currently here today on being blamed for something he did not do. Apparently, someone decided to paint all of the toilets pink in the boy's bathroom. Why? We have no idea. But when they did a locker search, they found a dab of pink paint in Eddy's locker. Putting two-and-two together, they punished him with one week worth of detentions two weeks from now. Why two weeks later instead of next week? Well, next week was Fall Break in the school system; so with all of their kindness, the school decided to not ruin his Fall Break (AN: Oh joy!). Eddy still claims that he did not do it, saying that someone planted that there for him to get into trouble. But as usual, the school did not believe him.

Anyway, Eddy was currently on the brink of taking a nap, but he knew he could not; he was in detention, after all. Plus all he could think about was who could have done the acts against him. He was also thinking about what he was going to do this Fall Break. And before he knew it, he laid his head down on his desk and fell fast asleep.

Darkness, that is all that Eddy could see at the moment as he scanned the darkness around him, "Huh? What the heck?"

Soon the darkness around him disappeared as another place formed around him; he was now standing in his neighborhood of the Cul-De-Sac. Everyone was out in the center of the Cul-De-Sac, all talking to each other about something. Everyone also had a look of sadness on their faces. Eddy also noticed that Ed and Double D were missing.

"Huh?" Eddy questioned slightly as he came up to the crowd of kids, "What the heck are you guys--"

"When does the service start again?" asked Jimmy to Sarah. Eddy soon stopped to listen to what they were talking about.

"I think it starts around four o' clock," Sarah replied to him as they soon walked off from the scene, "That's what his mom said."

'Huh?' Eddy thought to himself, 'What are they talking about?'

"Geez, Plank and I've been thinking how he would react when he hears the news," Johnny stated, "Ed took it pretty hard when he heard what happened."

"Rolf thinks Big-Mouth-Eddy would be upset once he wakes up," Rolf stated back as they too walked off from the scene.

Eddy soon started to feel very uncomfortable, 'What…?'

"So Kevin," Nazz started to ask Kevin, "Did they ever catch the guy who… robbed him?"

"No, I don't think so," Kevin said as they also walked away from the scene, "The guy who killed Double D is still out there somewhere…"

That statement made Eddy's heart stop in its place, "What?!" he exclaimed with shock. He then remembered something, "T-This has to be a--"

But before he could finish his sentence, he saw a bright flash of light, "… Eddy Wendell!"

Eddy jolted up from where he rested his head, "Ah!" he exclaimed rather loudly. The detention teacher was now over him.

"Do not go to sleep in detention!" the teacher said with irritancy in her voice, "You will now stay longer because of you little nap."

Eddy made a growl at the teacher but soon lets it go as a thought came to him, 'Why did I have that dream just now?' Soon another thought came to him; a feeling of distress washed over him, '… I gotta talk to Double D after I get outta here.'

Wow, intense! O.O Please note that this is my first attempt at something like this. And please, no flaming me. It's for a contest. Flames are not nice to me...
