Red Lightning: Bonus Chapter!

Before the Storm


Ed, Edd n Eddy were down at the creek, in there latest scam, the sun was singing, the birds were shineing, the lobsters were drowing, and the paint was drying. Eddy had decided to make money by painting benches. Double-D had to go behind his back and ask permission for the painting, and was planning to give Eddy a quarter later, saying it was from the park.

Ed was covered in green paint, and Double-D had some smeared on his hands, which he took surprisingly well.

"Weird weather..." Eddy said absentmindedly.

"Come on guys, you're almost there!" Ed called out.

[Eddy's POV]
Oh my god! I just saw Double-D get hit by lightning. He's just lying on the floor. Why am I stopping. I should keep running. But I don't. I look up, it look's like the Storm's clearing up. Whew, for a second I thought I was gonna get h-
