Author's Note: This story features the characterization of the Ed, Edd, n Eddy cast by DeeRhymz (aka Vampire Meerkat on deviantArt). If you are confused about anything then go check her stuff out or you can ask me. It's all good. :)
Part 2:
Kevin let out an angry groan as he completely forgot about what he was about to say and turned to see Eddy standing on a crate a few feet away. Ever since Eddy had his growth spurt he certainly did not need to stand on anything to spread his already booming voice any further, but old habits died hard and the large teen often forgot he had outgrown his previous diminutive state.
Unfortunately the crate underneath him could not ignore his newfound girth and promptly collapsed after having valiantly held him up for a few seconds.
"Argh, what is this thing made out of? Sawdust?" griped Eddy, as he rose from the ground no worse for the wear after his fall. Double D then emerged from behind his massive friend and whispered, "Eddy. The product. We're supposed to be pitching the product."
"Huh? Oh right! Heh heh, Ignore that little setback folks! Here is the amazing gizmo we came here to show you all tonight! 3-D glasses are old-school and no one wants to stay home to watch TV on the weekends, so tonight we present to you the next advancement in entertainment!"
Eddy paused for a moment before he turned, lightly nudged Double D, and angrily whispered, "The glasses, Sockhead. Show them the glasses!"
"Oh!" gasped Double D, who blushed in embarrassment at his lapse in their presentation. He quickly reached into his pocket and pulled out a large pair of glasses.
"Behold, Smell-o-vision glasses!" boomed Eddy with a wide grin on his face.
Kevin took a look at the glasses and burst out laughing. Upon closer inspection, the glasses were huge and bulky, with what looked like a huge metal nose in front with strange metal appendages coming out of the nostrils like some bizarre mustache. The glasses looked more like a cheap Halloween accessory than the modern wonder Eddy had just described.
Kevin then shouted, "Hey Dork, what do they do? Hide your face so that others can watch the movie in peace?" Kevin continued to howl with laughter while Eddy's face flushed red with anger.
Eddy then turned back to Double D and hissed, "We're losing them. Show them what the glasses can do, Double D."
"On it, Eddy," said Double D as he approached Kevin and Nazz with the glasses and said, "Perhaps a demonstration is in order?"
Kevin glared at Double D as he growled, "Yeah right, take a hike Dor…"
Yet before Kevin could finish his sentence, Nazz pleasantly said, "Whoa, nifty glasses, Double D! What do they do?"
"Thank you, Nazz. Now if Kevin would be so kind as to help me with my demonstration."
Before he had a chance to refuse, Double D placed the large, heavy glasses upon Kevin's face. Double D then held up a picture of a rose and the glasses lit up in recognition of the image before them. The mustache-like attachments underneath the nose of the glasses began to extend to reveal mechanical arms. The arms snaked their way to a rosebush that was growing nearby and shortly returned with a freshly plucked bouquet.
The mechanical arms held the roses under Kevin's nose and allowed him to breathe in their sweet scent. Kevin smiled, unable to deny the pleasant aroma of the roses, which he then took from the mechanical arms and handed them to Nazz, who giggled in delight.
Double D beamed at the success of his invention as he explained, "As you can see, the glasses allow the viewer to have a more immersive experience by registering strongly scented images on the screen and then retrieving the source of said scent."
Upon seeing the success of the glasses, Eddy trotted up to Double D and said for everyone to hear, "You saw itself yourself folks. Smell-o-vision is the wave of future! Order your own pair from Double D now and Ed's going to be here in a few minutes with the rest of them in the van!"
Rolf, still munching his cheese, excitedly approached Eddy and asked, "Loud-mouth Ed-boy, do your fancy doodads also work on television sets? Nana watches home-movies my kinsmen mail in from the old country and often wishes she could once more smell the sweet stench of back breaking labor from the village."
"Uh yeah, take it up with customer services," shrugged Eddy as he pushed Rolf in Double D's direction. Unfortunately Double D had just moved out of the way and Rolf ended colliding with Kevin upon his motorcycle.
Kevin, still wearing the glasses, hastily pushed Rolf off of him and said, "Hey, watch it man!"
Just then, the smell-o-vision glasses began to light up, indicating that something with a particularly strong smell had come into their line of vision. Double D noticed this display and wondered what could have set the glasses off.
His eyes widened as he noticed the hunk of cheese Rolf was holding as he was good-naturedly apologizing to Kevin.
Before Double D could shout warnings to either Kevin or Rolf, the mechanical hands of the glasses extended outward and promptly seized the cheese from Rolf's hands. As they attempted to retreat with the cheese, Rolf angrily grabbed them and cried, "Poachers! Return Rolf's means of sustenance at once before he must invoke the wrath of a swift beating with Mama's combat boots!"
The arms of the glasses were not accustomed to being gripped so tightly and began to twitch and spasm out of Rolf's hands before then went flying straight towards Kevin's face. Rather hold the cheese at a reasonable distance from Kevin's face, as had been the case with the roses, the arms malfunctioned and proceeded to shove the putrid cheese straight up into Kevin's nostrils.
Kevin let out an unearthly howl as the horrible smell imbedded within his sinuses and filled his lungs. He threw off the glasses and repeatedly attempted to blow air out of his nose to dislodge the cheese, but this only succeeded in breaking it into tiny bits that were all the more difficult to loosen.
Kevin continued to gag and sputter, while Double D profusely apologized for the malfunction. As Eddy stared at the scene before him, a small giggle emerged from his mouth. The giggle was followed by a series of guffaws, and finally Eddy was on the ground, laughing hysterically. Eddy's laughter proved to be contagious as soon everyone in the drive-in was chuckling at Kevin's plight.
As Kevin returned to his senses and his eyes were still watering from the horrible aroma, he felt a tight pain grip his chest when he saw that Nazz was also softly giggling at the ordeal he had just gone through. The pain in his chest quickly spread throughout his entire body as he felt his blood begin to boil. He turned to Eddy, who was still rolling around on the ground laughing at what had just occurred.
This night was supposed to have been perfect, where Kevin would finally have the backdrop of a romantic movie and a beautiful night under the stars to at last ask Nazz a question that had been burning at the back of his mind for the past few weeks: Would she go the prom with him?
He had long debated what would be the best way to ask her, with the recent gift of his new motorcycle providing the ideal means. A night at the movies on his bike would be casual but special, innocent yet intimate, perfect for calming him down enough to break through his fears and let the girl he had cherished for so long finally know how he felt.
All that hard work had been lost by the childish antics of that one source of annoyance he hadn't been able to leave behind since childhood. That one source of irritation that he had tried to put behind him so many times, yet always found a way to newly torment him. A primal scream arose from Kevin's throat as he unleashed his pent up fury in a war cry, "DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORK!"
Author's Note: I'm sensing a bit of resentment from Kevin there. Leave your guesses on how that is going to turn out in the review section. Remember to READ and REVIEW and I guess we'll see in part 3 next Friday. ;p
