Time for more of this, i've been working hard on this and i'm not gonna stop now.


Aaron woke up to another morning, it's been four weeks since that Hot Summer day and it's cooled off a bit, in that time Aaron had to help Rolf deal with homesickness (rather than making it a scam, Aaron just had a chat with him, he got to know how he felt and told him home is where the heart is in all basic terms to which Rolf was grateful for the help) and he had also tried to keep Double D from going insane due to the other two Ed's messing with him with sticky notes, he had told the Ed's to put Sarah's diary back so the four doesn't get beat up by her (Aaron's even a bit scared by her strength, though he does have a high pain resistance), accidentally doing a curse (Aaron still feels uncomfortable around crows to this day, he didn't help Ed break out since he doesn't really try to get involved in that (the other two Ed's, however, did get involved and got grounded for a bit), seeing the Eddy get beaten up with a fish while also seeing the kids do stupid stuff (he may not be that smart but even he knows what they did was stupid), and worked for Rolf for a bit before getting fired.

"Hmmm, wonder what the book has in store today?" Aaron asked himself tiredly

After exposing the book to high amounts of heat via a hairdryer, it was revealed that there were more facts about the clans. No stated names but it did reveal the types of magic that existed at the time, not much there besides another riddle on a page.

"'To find the truth, look within the azure eye.'" Aaron said to himself

Aaron sighed as he walked outside to see the Ed's waiting for him at the front door, Aaron walked over with a slightly bored look on his face.

"...You guys just wanna take a break from the book today?" Aaron asked, hoping they would say yes

"What do you say that?" Double D asked

Aaron shrugged a little while leaning on the doorway.

"We've been working on it a lot lately, if we take some time off, maybe we'll figure it out?" Aaron asked with a look of thought on his face

The Ed's looked at each other and then at Aaron, Eddy then shrugged.

"Fine with me, so what do you want to do?" Eddy asked with a bored look on his face

"Maybe a scam? No wait, we've been doing a lot of those... watch a movie?" Aaron suggested

"...A movie sounds good." Double D said with a content look on his face

"...Alright, you're picking the movie." Eddy said pointing a finger at Aaron

"YEAH, A MOVIE EDDY!" Ed said excitedly

Aaron simply shrugged while smiling at Ed's enthusiasm, they walked inside Aaron's house and the Ed's sat down as Aaron walked over to a small shelf.

"Let's see, we've got Return of the West number one and two, The Dark Quest, The Wizard Wars one and the admittedly terrible sequel." Aaron said as he looked at the movies

"Hmm, is there anything having to do with Science Fiction?" Double D asked curious

Eddy looked at Double D with a raised eyebrow.

"I like Science Fiction." Double D said

"...Let me check." Aaron said looking back at the shelf

Aaron looked around the shelf, he then found the perfect movie.

"Ah, a classic. 'City of the Wind'." Aaron said holding the copy of said movie

Aaron entered in the movie, he sat down with the Ed's and enjoyed the movie with them. Eating some chips, popcorn, drinking some soda Aaron had with him (he had an allowance oddly enough for doing some chores and he'd occasionally buy some drinks for him or some friends while saving some money).

After the movie was over, the Ed's were content with the movie. After that, they just relaxed and talked about some stuff relating to scams and all that, they later headed home. Aaron sighed as he got some things cleaned up, he then got dressed in his pajama's after taking a quick shower, he laid on his bed. Thinking about the book.

"The azure eye... could it be the gem?" Aaron asked himself

Aaron got up and walked over to the book, he pressed down on the gem with light pressure using his hand, a strange circle glowed on it a bit before disappearing. The gem opened up to reveal a strange glowing deck of cards floating in front of him with sparkles of light around it as a beam of light came out of the gem, Aaron was shocked as he looked at the cards. He grabbed the cards and looked at them, the backs had the design of a crystal with some symbols surrounding the outside, the fronts however...

"...All of these are blank?" Aaron said confused

Aaron shrugged as he set down the strange cards, going in a nice sleep.

Meanwhile

The cloaked man was walking through a small town in the area of Idaho, he sighed as the blinking got faster than it was four weeks ago.

"I'm getting close, i'll find him soon enough." The cloaked man said

He then continued to walk, knowing he was gonna have to try his hardest to get to him in order to do whatever he's supposed to do.

Back in Apple Ocean

Butch sighed as he took a sip of his soda, currently, he was still making a plan to invade the school's records during the school's football game.

"Jim, whatta think about this?" Butch asked holding up a detailed list

A boy wearing an open green flannel with a black t-shirt, dark blue jeans, and checkboard slip-on shoes. He had a blonde soul patch with blonde hair slightly messy on his head. He seemed to be a bit older than Butch when in reality, he was two years younger, his family always grew beards at that age for some odd reason. He was currently leaning on the wall, reading a book. He looked at the list and then at Butch.

"Sir, i don't think we should keep chasing after him. We've already caused him enough pain while he was here plus, why were we hurting him anyway?" Jim asked

"...I just don't like him, my family has never liked his family... i never knew why but i know this, i will always hate him." Butch said

Jim looked at Butch in silence and then he sighed as he looked back at the book.

"...Brilliant plan sir." Jim said, reading his book

"Bah, who asked you." Butch said

"...Whatever." Jim said

He then left the room with a sigh.

"Why would he hate him without a reason?" Jim asked himself as he walked out of the base of operations they had

Jim walked home, thinking about what Butch's doing.


Been a while since we've seen those guys, plus i've finally introduced Jim. Butch's left-hand man and guy who questions his decision to attack someone that didn't even do anything to them.

I'll see you guys in the Fandom.
