The three remained completely quiet. Ed squeezed both of his friends and backed into the corner of the room.
"This is all your fault, sockhead." Eddy whispered to Edd.
"Edd felt his face heat up. "My fault? Funny, isn't it, how it's always my fault when yet another of your amazing scams goes awry."
"Yeah, well, I didn't see you try and stop me." Eddy said completely unaware of Edd's constant warnings. "You should have known it would go bad."
"And boy did it go bad." Ed chimed in.
Their talking seized upon hearing a creak in the hallway. They were going to be in here forever if they didn't know what was happening. Eddy spotted a glass on the refrigerator. He slid Edd over towards the door and handed him the glass.
He pressed it against the door and heard shuffling around the hallway. Rolf was muttering to himself while Kevin told everyone to be quiet.
The only thing that Eddy could hear was his own heart pounding, not only from being in his brothers room, but what the kids may do to them if they were found.
Edd started looking calmer when he heard Kevin say that they weren't here.
Just when they thought they were going to get away, both of them heard a crunching noise. Ed found a piece of buttered toast and was unaware of the noise it made.
The glass slipped out from Edd's hands and landed in his puddle of sweat.
In a matter of seconds the door began rattling around as the kids finally found their victims.
"We are not one for this world!" Ed screamed after realizing it was his piece of toast that caused them to get caught.
Edd ran to the windows and opened them. Eddy ran in front of him only to claw at the cemented bricks. "What's with my brother and these stupid bricks?!" Eddy exclaimed not even noticing that he was walking into Edd.
They tripped over the rug which revealed a ventilation shaft. They were running out of time as Edd noticed the door coming loose from its hinges by the second.
As Edd and Eddy struggled to open the ventilation shaft, Ed was thrown off the stuffed camel and slammed into the wall.
"More bricks, Double D!" Eddy yelled when he tried to escape through the vent. His brother really made it hard for someone to escape his room.
"Ooh, this-a-way guys!" Ed yelled grabbing the two of them. He put them face to face with a red alarm box.
"'In case of movie break glass?'" Edd read.
"Bingo!" Eddy said smashing the glass i seconds. "My bro is always prepared."
What he pulled out was a lone peanut. His brother always did this! He made every plan have a flaw in it because he thought it was funny. His misery was his happiness.
A fist smashed a hole through the door and in poked the tattered face of Kevin. "End of the line, dorks!"
Eddy threw the peanut to which it landed in Ed's mouth.
"It was just a scam, Double D, how could it go so wrong?" Eddy yelled, so terrified that he actually latched around Edd in full fear. "Eddy, the laws of probability can be a real mean..."
Ed got their attention when he bit down and broke the nutshell.
It was a key! "It must be for my brothers car!" Eddy said opening the passenger side door.
"Eddy, we're too young to drive!" Edd soon ignored his own warning when a piece of the door planted on the ground.
All three of them got in the car. Eddy was able to get the key through the ignition, but when he turned it, nothing happened. The car was working when he set it in this spot, but that was eight years ago.
Rolf smashed his head through the door, breaking the chains along with the impact. "Rolf's vengeance will be slow and painful, like Papa's charcoal anecdotes, Ed boys!"
The cul-de-sac kid's smashed through the door. Edd found it a relief that none of them were dead, but they all looked horrendous,
As Edd and Eddy cringed in fear, Ed had an idea and immediately took into action. He smashed his feet through the floor of the car, like one of those Flintstones cartoons.
Just when Kevin grabbed the mirror, Ed ran from the room and smashed through the wall of Eddy's house.
Kevin, Rolf and Jonny fell to the grass and took a moment to collect themselves. They were all injured enough already from the scam.
"They're getting away, guys!" Nazz yelled seeing the Eds begin to destroy the cul-de-sac as they tried to escape.
Rolf let out an ear piercing whistle, which Wilfred immediately came to. "There is no escaping the son of a shepherd!"
Sarah and Jimmy peaked behind the house. They watched the Eds run past in the car. What happened to the kids? Rolf had the side of his body bitten off. And Nazz, was she naked under that box?
"Yowzers, what do you think they did this time, Jimmy?"
"Whatever it was, it must be worser than ever."
The two youngsters followed at a distance so they wouldn't get hurt.
The Eds were almost at the end of the cul-de-sac. It would be safer to get away from her. The kids looked hostile this time and didn't look a if they were fooling about killing them.
"I think I'm gonna be sick!" Edd yelled gripping his seat.
"Not in my brothers car you're not!" Eddy yelled.
Just then, Plank landed on the front of the windshield. The boys screamed at seeing the creepy boards painted, but faded smile, stare deep into their souls. "Let 'em have it buddy!" Jonny hollered with his head still trapped in a bear trap.
Ed swerved the car until he leaped in the air. The car came crashing on top of the sides of the lane. It just kept rolling along.
Edd tried to catch his breath, beginning to hyperventilate. Were they actually going to skip town? Would his parents actually come home for once and see he wasn't there? They actually spent some of their time with him before working got in the way.
"So much undone, unsaid," he belted out. "Mother and Father will be so annoyed.
Suddenly, Ed screamed in pain and began to slip out from the car. Rolf was following underneath with his teeth sinking into Ed's leg. This would be his first kill.
"They got me guys! I'm a goner! Save yourselves!" Ed whined. Eddy watched as Ed's fingers slipped one by one. Were the kids going to kill him? As he watched his last finger slip off, the memory of their first meeting came to his mind.
"See yah!"
"Ed!" In an instant Edd and Eddy grabbed their friend and will all their strength pulled him out of the grip of a maniacal looking Rolf.
"Curse you, Ed bo-" Rolf smashed into a dumpster as the Eds were ricocheted into a forest of trees, smashing them to pieces until landing in the junkyard.
Kevin was perched high above and watched the red car run past. He quietly made his way down the trash and saw the other kids coming. He made jesters about what they were going to do. They agreed and Kevin was off first.
Before Eddy could glance at his rear view mirror, Kevin smashed against the car rocking it off kilter. Edd looked at Kevin, seeing that the boy was no longer there. The devil looked as if it had replaced him.
Kevin rammed the car a third time making it somersault off a pile of junk. Eddy gripped the wheel as he was thrown out the window and was literally running along side it.
This chase was more insane than anyone thought. As soon as Eddy was spun back inside, the car broke through the junkyard, and spun out of control down the creek.
"Prepare for Rolf's water-laden bladder!"
"Plank's freaking out!" Jonny screamed at the back of everyone.
"Double D, you got any great idea's?!" Eddy shouted. Edd wasn't able to answer the question as he was getting car sick into a bag. His face took a pale coloring when he saw Kevin's head reach for the door handle.
"How do you like your faces, fried or scrambled?"
The door was thrown open. Ed wasn't loosing without a fight. He shut the door and Eddy rolled up the windows. It would hopefully keep them safer from just a little longer.
Their hearts jumped at the sound of thumps on the top of the car. Wilfred's tail speared through the top.
The head of the car was ripped off.
Exposed!
"Time for payback!" Kevin yelled.
"Plank wants first crack at 'em!"
"Rolf will use their hides as a crutch for Nana's goiter!"
"Like, thanks for the help up here, guys? Duh!" Nazz said upon nearly falling off the car.
"It wasn't me, Eddy did it!" Ed yelled before his head disappeared into his shirt.
"In your dreams!" Eddy baklashed. He struggled for a moment, knowing to himself that this whole thing was his fault. No, it wasn't. Nothing was ever his fault. "It was Double D!"
Edd was left alone to face the kids as both his friends hid. From the corner of his eye, he noticed the playground.
"Uh, excuse me," he spoke, as always being polite. "I'll be right back."
Edd grabbed the merry-go-round which spun them all around. One by one each kid let go of the car and went flying in different directions. The hood ripped off leaving only Kevin.
His devilish eyes almost reminded Eddy of his brother when his last scam took a turn for the worst.
"You dorks ain't seen the last of me!" Kevin hollered when he was thrown off the car.
Edd's fingers slowly slipped off one by one.
Once they did, they catapulted through the sky, over the trees, until the kids could no longer hear them.
"DOOOOOORKS!" Kevin screeched at the top of his lungs. "I can't believe it. I almost had them!"
Sarah and Jimmy watched from a far and listened to the older kids from a far. Jonny slowly slipped away as Rolf ranted off and Nazz followed Kevin.
The children were alone as they all left to hunt down the Ed's.
"Golly gosh, Sarah, they're gonna hunt down the Ed's! What on earth did they do?"
"I don't know, Jimmy." What were they going to do to Ed? Would it be worse then one of her poundings?
"Think of what they'll do to them, Sarah. It'll be worse than soap in your eyes. Worser then polyester chafing!"
"Let's have a picnic and watch!"
Both children agreed and walked off through the now destructed cul-de-sac.
