Chapter 1: the stages of Egbert.

5th grade….. You are 10 years old.

You're at your best bros house to play a game of ghost busters. Your name is John Egbert and Dave is your best friend ever! The two of you have known each other since as long as you can remember in your young life.

You knock on his door on a hot Saturday afternoon. Your dad just started letting you walk to Dave's all by yourself so you feel pretty grown up. When some one answers the door you have to crank your neck to see who it is. Instead of eyes looking down at you it's a pair of weird anime glasses.

"Hey Egderp." Bro greets you. You always liked your best bro's guardian, he was super funny and was always in a cool mood.

"Hello Bro!" He reply cheerfully. He cracks a small smile and moves so you can come into his apartment. You can hear loud beats coming from the other side of the apartment so you run to Dave's room waving to bro behind you.
