Chapter 4: The Strange Happening
Royix and the Eds raced after the Dusk, which went over the wooden fence. Royix turned to his friends and said," you guys give me a boost,". They nodded.
Ed and Eddy were on top of the straining Double D, who was trying to hold his three friends up. " hey..." Edd said with a deep breath." Royix...is...this...good enough,"
Then Ed, the strongest of the group grabbed Royix and tossed him over with ease. Of course Royix landed flat on his face."Oops! Ugh...sorry Royix!" Ed called out over the fence. but got back up and dusted himself off. " it's ok big guy," Royix said.
Royix looked around and saw there was a big acre of woods behind the fence and chases the creature deeper into the forrest, which was cluttered with a bunch of junk hanging off the trees and piles of aluminum cans.
The Dusk swerved around each tree, knocking some things off of them to hit Royix which he managed to maneuver around, though he did stumble over a couple of cans but regains his balance. It was as if the creature wanted him to follow it so he picked up the pace, stumbled over a tire that was lying around.
Royix eventually reaches a big strange old house and in front of it was The Dusk. The boy moves forward then here's a weird voice in his head." We have come for you, My Liege,"
This made Royix jump back, this situation was starting to bother him.
"What do you mean?!" Royix questioned.
The Dusk opens its mouth and lunges for the boy, who swipes his sword at the creature but it does nothing.
"Oh this is bad..." Royix said in a worried tone." It's no use!" Now he knew he was a goner breathing heavily trying to figure out what to do.
Then Royix looks down at the sword in his hand as data started swirling around it. " What the..."
Soon there was a flash of light revealing a Keyblade in his hand." Whoa!" The Eds will never believe this one, even he was having a hard time believing it.
"What...is this thing?" Royix said to himself, still trying to figure out what the heck was going on. Was this some sick joke set up by Eddy, though Royix doubted it. This was real.
Royix looks straight at The Dusk, who darts right at him, then as if by instinct he swung the weapon and The Dusk vanished on impact then the stolen pictures from the camera came flowing down to the ground.
The Keyblade disappears from Royix's hand then he walked over and picked up the pictures. Royix climbed back over to the other side of the fence as the Eds helped him down carefully.
Eddy sees that Royix had the pictures in his hand then walked over to take a look. "What's this supposed to be?" He questioned.
"This was when I helped Rulf on his farm," Royix said." He gave me one of his chickens afterwards and we both took a picture with it,"
Double D began to speak"It's a really nice photo..." Then he stops and realized what he had just said. " Whoa!"
"you just said "photo"," Ed said in excitement. " yay! We can say photo again!"
"So," Eddy asked." Didya happen to get a good glimpse at the jerk that stole these?"
Royix tried to think but was having a hard time to figure out what happened.
"There's not much to say," Royix stated making Eddy smack his own forehead in frustration. " the pictures were just...laying there,"
Eddy groaned and said." Then how in the world are supposed to prove that it wasn't us that stole these?"
Eddy then gets a glimpse of the next picture, it was of a younge girl with red hair and blue dress and was rather beautiful and she was standing side by side with Royix, Eddy then reaches for it and says." Hey what's this one?" as he snatches it out of his hand to look at it then chuckles." Oh...and whose this, your girlfriend," Eddy teased." Hey you think she has a friend?"
"You actually look pretty happy in this one," Ed said.
"I do not," Royix argued.
"Anybody else find it kind of weird that all of these pictures are of Royix?" Double D asked.
"Hmm, I guess that's why they thought it was us," Ed suggested.
"So wait," Eddy asked." Kevin wasn't spreading going around spreading rumors that it was us?" He placed his hands over his head." All of this makes my head hurt,"
Royix looked puzzled why would someone go out of their way to steal pictures of just him. " you mean they're all of me?"
"Looks like it," Double D answered. Then shows Royix the picture in his hand." See?"
"Look!" Ed exclaimed." It is you Royix! It is!"
"That's right," Double D said." All of them, every single one. Wouldn't it kinda weird if someone stop the real Royix," he joked.
"Are you kidding?" Eddy laughed," what would anyone want with this poor schlub," jabbing his thumb towards Royix as he teased.
"Thanks Eddy," Royix with a hint of a laugh," really appreciate it,"
"My pleasure," Eddy said with a smirk as the four friends laugh.
Eddy and the other two Eds left, with Eddy sounding like he was planning another scam.
Royix smiled and shook his head before joining the Eds. Soon, he put his hand over his eyes to block them from the sun then he heard a voice.
"Where... am I?" Yori's voice asked.
Royix wiped around," w-who said that?"
"Who are you?" The voice asked, then the screen scrambles.
Xatigev walks up to the DiZ, who is sitting at a desk with a ton of lit up computers with different images on it.
"Blast it," DiZ said frustrated." The Head Pixie and those miscreants in The Organization have found us out,"
"But what would the nobodies want with some useless pictures?" Xatigev asked.
"To them they're nothing but data," DiZ answered." Those foolish nobodies wouldn't know the difference." DiZ sighed and told Xatigev." We're running out of time, Head Pixie and the rest will find him eventually. Serena must hurry,"
DiZ leaned back in his chair and crossed his arms as he eyed the image of Royix on the screen.
