Heeeellllooo!!!! Novalyn's back and better than ever! Me and my co-authors decided to make a few changes to the length of the chapters. So I'm editing the story. Well here's the new chapter 3! Enjoy!

Chapter 3: Secrets Out

Chapter recap: when we left Double D, he was slowly being killed by his aunt. He said he was going to see them all tomorrow. Well it looks like that promise was going to be kept.

The next day……

"He has to be at his house." Eddy said, annoyed {and worried though he would never admit to it.}. "Yeah, he probably is. Still that's no reason to bust in on him." Ed answered. You see in the two years since he was 12, he'd changed a lot. Along with cleaning up his room finally {much to everyone's elation} he had become smarter. I guess those times where everyone was stuck listening for hours on end to Double D's daily lectures actually paid off. Anyway they were at Double D's house now. "It's a perfect reason to bust in on him." Eddy answered. As usual Eddy does not knock and just opens the door. They see a shoe on the ground by the couch. They walk over and…

Meanwhile. . .

"LILITH!!!!!!! WHERE THE F$# ARE YOU?!!" Valeri Coco Chaves screamed. You see she and Lilith were best friends and they had been since the day they'd met. Valeri was a Hispanic tree-bark brown-eyed blond who was just Eddy's height and had the "mouth of the south" syndrome. She was sort of skinny with {as a guy would say} a nice rack and brownish skin. In truth she was very curvy. She was wearing her normal attire of a white three-quarter sleeved shirt with a pink tank top, a black pleated red feather trimmed skirt, and blue and purple seamed cowboy boots. "WAVERYN'S HERE TOO!" Valeri screamed again. The girl she's talking about was right next to her. The girl's name is Waveryn Theor Saturday. She is a very tall girl compared to Valeri and Lilith and best friends with them as well. She is just about Ed's height with autumn leaf red hair and a killer tan. Green with a hint of hazel eyes were staring down at her skateboard-riding companion or, as she was sometimes referred to as, the blond pain in the ass. But only Eddy called her this {because he had a huge crush on her}. Anyway, Waveryn was clad in her normal outfit of an army green tank-top, brown cargo pants, and dark brown steel-toed combat boots. "Oh! That's a great way to say we're here." Waveryn said sarcastically. "What did you say, green giant?" "I said I don't think they heard you in Australia, Napoleon!" Lilith had opened the door by now. "Why don't you two….." "DOUBLE D!!!!" Just then a piercing scream filled the air. "That came from Double D's house!" Lilith yelled as she ran out her backdoor while Waveryn and Valeri followed close behind. You see Lilith was Double D's back fence neighbor. So they hopped the fence and burst through his backdoor, walked into the living room, and found him. Laying there on his living room floor in a pool of blood, yet somehow still breathing even though he was laying on the floor in front of his couch bleeding from his neck slowly. Lilith just stopped breathing for a second. Valeri paled much like Eddy was right now. Ed and Waveryn were frozen on the spot. Lilith suddenly burst into action, picking him up and setting him on the couch. "Get me something to wipe his neck off, NOW!" "I'll do it!" "I'll need a first aid kit." "I'm on it!" Now it was just her, Eddy, and Ed. "Do you trust me?" she asked in a tone that said I-can-do-this-but-only-if-you-trust-me. Eddy didn't know what to say, I mean one of his best friends was laying there severely possibly fatally injured and she was asking for permission to save his life? It seemed insane to him so he didn't understand. But Ed did{Ed's spontaneous geniusness never went away}. "If you can save Double D, we do." "Do what you have to do to save him." Eddy added finally understanding that some people must not have trusted her to save their loved ones before. Lilith nodded acknowledging what they said. "AELON PETORES SOULOS KEYBET" As she said those words, a blindingly bright flash of light engulfed the room {luckily everyone else in the neighborhood had to go places today and weren't there at this time.} and everything went white. A strange circle with a star in the center of it appeared around Double D and Lilith. Symbols were on each point of the star. They came off the floor and started circling Double D and Lilith. Suddenly what seemed like skin-colored gloves ripped off the injured parties hand as well as the healers hands. It seemed that the stared circle was on the hands of both of them. One of the symbols started to glow and the brighter it glowed the more healed Double D became till the hole in his neck was a small pinprick. "KITEN." Then after Lilith said that word it all ended. Everything went back to normal. Valeri came back with a wet towel and Waveryn came back with the first aid kit. After they treated Double D they had a drink and Lilith started to explain what they were.

Well, well, well! I am going to stop right there for now. Do not hate me, because I have deal for you. You review, I post. It's that simple. So please review and remember f you flame you get eaten by my pet. {something flies by the gate at hyper-sonic speed}
