Back at the Dojo, the alarm went off again, which meant that they had to deliver a package. 'Well, so far for a relaxing day guys', Burn sighed and they all powered up. Ed could tell that nobody was in the mood to deliver something right now so he volunteerd to do it himself. 'Come on guys, you all deserve a break. I'll be back in 10 minutes!', Ed said to them. Deets, knowing that Ed couldn't be alone after what had happened last time when he was alone, protested against it. 'You're not going alone Ed, it's too dangerous.' Ed understood why she thought like that but tried to convince the others that he was going to be okay. It didn't help though. 'No Ed, Deets is right, you can't be alone. I will go with you. The others can stay here and rest.', Burn said. Ed knew that he wasn't going to win this so he agreed. 'Let's go.', Burn said, and they went outside to deliver the package.
While they were on the road, Ed was in deep thoughts about what could have happened to him. He knew it wasn't normal that he almost jumped out of the window while seeing a big blue light, which seemed to have total control over his body and mind. He also didn't understand why he couldn't remember what had happened before he blacked out.
Burn saw that Ed was thinking about something and felt sorry for the young teenager. Weird stuff had been happenening to him lately, and Burn saw that it was changing him. Ed got a bit more mature because of it. He wasn't always the happy kid anymore, but more serious.
While both of the boys were in deep thoughts, a vehicle with clowns in it passed them and jacked the package out of Burn's hands. Ed saw this and he immediately followed the clowns with high speed. They shot pies at Ed but he dodged them all. When he had reached the vehicle he suddenly heard something speak to him. Attack Burn, the voice said to him. Ed looked around him to see where the voice was coming from but he didn't see the source of it. Attack Burn, the voice said again to him, a little bit harder this time. 'What? No, I won't attack him, he is my friend!', Ed said in confusion. The voice got angry and began to yell at ed. Attack Burn! Destroy him!. Ed began to feel strange and it was like something was trying to gain control of his body and mind again. 'No, I won't ever attack my friends.', Ed said and he did everything he could to stop the voice from controlling his body.
Ed didn't notice that he had stopped and Burn stood at his side, not knowing what was happening. 'Ed!, Burn screamed at him. Ed didn't seem to notice Burn calling his name and he began to yell. 'No I will not do that! Go away!', Ed yelled and he fell to his knees. Burn started to panick and shook Ed's shoulders. 'Ed, please stop!'. Ed now began to puke and a black fluid came out of his mouth, of which he spilled a bit on his shirt. Burn's eyes grew big and he knew that the black fluid couldn't be a good thing. You won't win this fight Ed. The world, including your precious friends, will be destroyed because of you!, the voice said.
After a few minutes screaming and lying restless on the ground while Burn was trying to calm him down, Ed finally passed out. Burn was relieved that he had stopped screaming and thought it was best to bring him home and to tell the others what had happened. He didn't care about the stolen package right now, because his friend was more important to him.
Back at the Dojo
'Ed and Burn are gone for a while now, don't you guys think we have to go and check on them?', Deets said concerned. 'Relax Deets, Fizz said. They're probably getting a milkshake or something. They'll come back.' Deets still wasn't convinced but tried to relax a little.
'Hey Burn!', Loogie said when he saw Burn walking into the living room. Deets looked behind her and immediately noticed someone missing. 'Where's Ed?', Fizz asked. Burn didn't really know what to say to them. 'Uhm, well yeah.. You guys might want to come with me. Something bad happened today.' Burn saw the confused looks on everyone's faces, so he motioned them to come with him to Ed's room.
Inside the room, they saw Ed lying on his bed, panting. 'What happened?', Deets asked Burn. 'Well, we were in the middle of a delivery when the clowns showed up. They jacked the package out of my hands so Ed tried to get it back, but suddenly he started saying things to himself like 'no I will not do that' and 'they're my friends'. I tried to snap him out of it but it was like he wasn't able to hear me and he was lying on the ground, screaming. This went on for about 5 minutes untill he puked black fluid and after that he just passed out.'
The room went silent and nobody understood what was happening. Deets went to Ed's side and saw some of the black fluid on his shirt. 'Was this the black fluid you were talking about?', she asked Burn. Burn nodded. 'Fizz, do you know what it is', Deets asked and Fizz went to Ed's side as well. She looked at the fluid, trying to recognize it. 'No, sorry. I have no idea what that is', she said sadly.
'So what are we going to do now?', Burn asked. 'I don't know. I wish Ol' Skool was still here. He could've helped us.', Deets said. 'Maybe we can go to that creepy old doctor?, Loogie said. He seemed to know a bit about Ed's destiny, too.' 'You mean Dr. Hong!', Dr. Pinch said. They all looked up at Loogie. 'Loogie, that's a great idea!', Fizz said. 'Yeah, he might know what's going on with Ed. Let's go guys!', Burn said.
Everyone wanted to go outside until Fizz stopped them. 'Wait! Someone has to stay at the Dojo to look after Ed. You guys can go, I will stay here.', she said to them. Deets was about to protest because she wanted to stay with Ed, but figured it would be best to just agree with Fizz before someone noticed the little crush she had on Ed.
At the house of Dr. Hong
Burn stepped to the door and knocked on it. At first, it seemed like no one was at home, but after a minute the big doors went open. Dr. Hong appeared at the door. 'What are you doing here?', he asked them. Burn stepped forward a bit. 'We are here to ask you something. It's about Ed. Strange things has been happening to him.' The old man looked at all their faces one time and then motioned them to come inside. They all followed him into the house.
'Please, sit.', he sat to the teenagers. He himself also sat down. 'Tell me, what strange things are happening to Ed.' Burn decided to tell him, because he had seen it all happen. 'Well, me and Ed were busy delivering a package when a clown stole it from us and Ed tried to get it back. A few seconds later Ed was talking and screaming to himself and said things like 'no I will not hurt them' and he fell on the ground. I couldn't snap him out of it and all of the sudden he started to puke a black fluid and passed out.' Deets decided to step in and said: 'Also, a few days earlier, Ed almost jumped out of the window. He said that it felt like something was controlling his body and mind!' They all waited for Dr. Hong to give them an explanation. He looked up at the children and said 'I truly don't know what's happening to him, I'm sorry.' Everyone looked down, defeated. 'Did something happen before that could have caused all this?', Dr. Hong asked them. 'Yeah something did, Deets said. A while ago, Ed was in a red van trying to get a package back, but he suddenly fell out of it and went unconscious. We saw nothing hit him, he just.. fell while grabbing his neck'. Dr. Hong processed all the information he got from the couriers but couldn't find a solution to it. 'Is it possible for me to speak to Ed in private some time?', he asked them. 'Yeah, i guess so..', Deets said, not wanting anything to happen to Ed again. 'Good. Send him to me when he's ready. I'll be waiting.', and with that, Dr. Hong walked the teenagers to the door and waved them goodbye.
'I hope this will all be over soon.', Burn said, and they all headed back to the Dojo.
