Chapter 2: Problem at Lowee
(Over at Lowee's Basilicom Library)
Mina: "Thank you so much for helping me with this mess, Double D."
Edd: "Oh that's quite alright, Mina. I figured after I help tidy up here, I could study the marvels of Gamindustri's knowledge. It's not every day you could study another world's wisdom."
Mina: "Sure, anything for a kind young man."
Edd: "Oh no need for the praise, I'm just happy to help out."
Mina: "How nice of you. I wish your little friends could've helped out."
Edd: "Oh they would've but, chores seem to be their weakness I suppose."
Mina: "Oh, I understand. Still, they are your friends; they could at least find the time to help out."
Edd: "Its fine I assure you, after all, they make up for it by having such kind hearts."
Mina: "Hmmm. If you say so, then I believe you."
A Lowee delivery man comes in with a large package….
D. man: "Excuse me, Ms. Nishizawa. A package came for you in the mail."
Mina: "Hmm? But I did not order anything."
D. man: "It just arrived over at the office. There was no return address neither. Should I throw it away?"
Mina: "No, that does quite alright, just sit it over there, thank you."
The man lays the package down then leaves
Edd: "What do you suppose it is?"
Mina: "I have no clue. Maybe it's for Lady Blanc. *checking the box to find nothing wrong with it*"
The box then shake
Mina: "Oh my!"
Edd: "D-Did it-"
Mina: "I believe it did."
Double D did the original door knock beat
Edd: Bump, bu-bu-bump bump….
The box knocked back the end beat…
Bump bu- Out pops out Ed and Eddy
Edd: "Ahhhh!"
Mina: "G-Goodness!"
Edd: *takes time to recognize them* "Ed? Eddy?"
Mina: "Goodness, it's just your friends."
Edd: "I guess my calculations were a little, off about them."
Mina: "Indeed."
Eddy: "Hey, Double D! What ya been up to?"
Edd: "Eddy, show some respect. This is the Oracle of Lowee you're standing in front of."
Ed: *pause* "Uhhh, the follicle?"
Edd: "No, Ed. The 'Oracle' of Lowee; she's like the vice-president of this great land."
Mina: "Well, more like the Ambassador, but thanks for the compliment."
Eddy: "Sweet! Hey Ms. Oracle-"
Edd: "It's Madam, and her name is Mina Nishizawa."
Ed: *reaches out to Mina for a handshake* "Nice to meet you Madam Mina Ninipicklewa."
Mina: *handshakes Ed's hand while giggling* "It's Nishizawa, but you can call me Mina."
Ed: "Okie dokie Madam Mina."
Mina: "Mina's just fine, Ed."
Eddy: "And I'm Eddy! Big Ed and I were wondering, since you're like the leader of this country, we thought if you could-"
Double D interrupts
Edd: "Stop right there mister."
Double D gives Eddy a mean look
Edd: "You two wouldn't happen to just waltz right in here just to ask around people for change to buy jawbreakers, would you?"
Eddy gets nervous
Eddy: "Uhhh, well, ya see I-"
Ed: "Awww c'mon Double D, me and Eddy need to fill our empty bellies."
Edd: "I'm terribly sorry about this, Mina."
Mina: "No need to apologize. If its candy they want, I do have some leftover Jawbreakers I was saving for Ram and Rom later, but I guess they won't mind."
Eddy gets excited
Eddy: "For reals?!"
Ed: "YAY! Jawbreaker for Ed, Eddy!"
Eddy: "We're finally getting some jawbreakers, Ed!"
Mina: *giggles* "I take it they like jawbreakers a lot."
Edd: "More than anything in the world."
Mina: "Follow me, I will show you to the jawbreakers."
Eddy: "Right behind ya, Ms. Oracle."
Ed: "Oh goodie goodie!"
Edd: "just like old times."
