I finally was able to finish chapter 7, sorry for the delay again. I was looking over my previous chapters that I thought was lacking, and I had trouble figuring out how to make the story better. I know I could work on other projects, but that would mean taking away time for this story. Also the main issue was improving my writing and mixing in digimon into the plot, while keeping It still feel like Ed Edd N Eddy. Now that is over with, it's time for questions.
Seeing as how you said Mechanorimon will have a different digivolved form, does that mean Hyokomon's final form shall change too?
No, Hyokomon's line is perfect for Ed it stays.
Who is Eddy's partner?
I will keep that a secret until the digital world arc. The only thing I can say it won't be a digimon that has been partnered before, so no Shoutmon, Agumon, or any others.
How long till we get to the digital world arc?
I am trying to tie up loose ends, so I would say chapter 15 they will depart on their grand Ed-venture.
Please don't hesitate to leave a review, the more reviews the quicker I write. It is through your reviews I know how well I am doing and what to change. Now on to the chapter and if you liked the new opening leave a review on this chapter.

Chapter 7
ChasEd Off into the Sunset! Catch me if you can!
It has been several days since the encounter with the ravenous Cyclomon and during this time spring break ended and the Eds once again had to return to school. The Eds have made progress in repairing Mechanorimon, but their progress with the auto pilot system was unfortunately more difficult. The main issue was finding a computer to code the necessary base in which the system would run on. They would need a computer for that and parts you wouldn't hope to find in a junkyard. Then there was school that kept the Eds preoccupied, but that caused the issue of leaving the immobile mech digimon alone. Hyokomon offered to stay along with Mechanorimon until they finish the motor functionality system, secretly he was happy to be away from Sarah and Jimmy who constantly played with when they could get their tiny hands on him. This meant Hyokomon would be staying in the junkyard so the Eds had to sneak food, which was tricky but they managed through with little issues.
THURSDAY
It was good day so far for Double D. He has finished several homework assignments for today and gym class had be canceled and everyone was given free period. Normally he wouldn't be pleased missing an opportunity to learn, but physical activity and him rarely ever got along. Double D decided to spend his free period at his personal haven, the school library. He arrives at the front doors of the school library. As the Ed enters he finds that the hall is entirely empty. This was due to how early in the day it was, students regularly started free periods later in the day. He looks to see the librarian, Miss Terrance, the only one present today. She was in her late fourties with little crows feet on her face behind the small black reading glasses, with a thin and tall build, her hair blonde slightly graying, she was wearing a white blouse and slacks. The librarian was currently reading a book, but looks over and finds the young Ed entering the library. She smiles at the boy and greets him with slight pep in her voice.
Ms. Terrance: Ah! Eddward always a pleasure to see you.
The hatted Ed responds to the polite greeting with one of his own and asks the Librarian.
Double D: Good morning Miss Terrance. How are you on this fine school day?
Miss Terrance turns her full attention to the young student. She was curious as to why he was here at this time, so Miss Terrance gets directly to the point asks him.
Ms. Terrance: I am doing well today, thank you. May I ask what you are doing here so early?
Double D calmly explains himself to the teacher as he didn't want her to assume he was skipping class.
Double D: Unfortunately our gym teacher has personal duties to attend today, so the entire class received an early free period today.
She chuckles lightly fully well knowing Double D's dislike of physical activity. Miss Terrance looks down on the boy with a teasing grin on her face.
Ms. Terrance: You must be thankful for that I am sure.
Double D has a slightly embarrassed look on his face and responds reluctantly to the statement.
Double D: I would be remiss if I said I wasn't slightly relieved.
The Ed boy turns his head and takes another quick look around the library to see if he was disturbing anyone. There was no one sitting on desks reading, no younger students reading in story corner, and books being checked out or returned. To his surprise when his gaze reaches over to the computer stations he find several computers lying on the ground. They were older model from the previous generation, but the school had kept them to up to date with the best software. Double D asks Miss Terrance about the devices currently on the ground.
Double D: Miss Terrance If I may ask what is going to happen to those computers lying over there?
She looks over to the various pieces of equip with a lack of interest in the subject.
Ms. Terrance: Ah those, where to begin recently the three PCs have had several issues, the monitors are being replaced due to the warranty no longer existing, the cable need to be changed for manually safety preoccupations, a pair of computer mice, and the keyboard is missing keys.
The Ed boy knew it was crucial that he obtain those parts, it would was needed in finishing his friend Mechanorimon's motor function system and having a computer around would really help him in researching digimon sighting. The only problem being the issues Miss Terrance mentioned, but surely with some tinkering he can get the computers up and running in no time flat. Double D, seeing the opportunity laid out in front of him to obtain the necessary computer he and his friends needed, asks the school librarian.
Double D: Miss Terrance I hope it wouldn't be too troublesome to ask if I am purchase the old computer equipment from the school.
Miss Terrance scoffs at the notion of the young man having to pay for such faulty equipment that was meant to be thrown away. She knew how much the kind boy and his friends struggled to get quarters for those jawbreakers.
Ms. Terrance: Come now Eddward we were already planning on tossing these old things aside, you can have them no questions asked. Besides if you had the money to buy the equipment you wouldn't need to get involved in those quick cash schemes with your friends.
The Young man is exhilarated to hear that, he gives the Liberian a hearty hand shake and thanks her prominently for the gift.
Double D: Thank you very much Miss Terrance!
Miss Terrance however is humble simply states the case to the young child. She knew of much he helps his friends and is thankful for that, her opinion of them is slightly negative. Her view of Ed is that he is naïve and innocent, but his wild imagination causes most of his trouble. Eddy however was a mixed subject, he is impulsive, reckless, and rude, but she has been working at the school long enough knew where he got that from and blame the source for Eddy's behavior.
Ms. Terrance: It is no trouble far from it in fact Eddward. Now would you like some help moving all this old junk to your locker.
Despite the thought of assistance from an adult sounding tempting, Double D knew he had to decline. After all who would look after the library in her absence, also the idea of an girl seeing his locker frightened him several times over. He steeled his nerves and replies calmly to Miss Terrance.
Double D: Thank you for the offer, but I will have decline I have some friends currently not doing anything. I will be back shortly with the assistance and mode of transportation.
MEANWHILE
The two remaining Eds are walking around the school looking for some sort of activity to do. They diverged from their brainy friend after he suggested that they spend their free time in the library. To them that was insane and so they went their separate ways in search off something to do. So far all Ed and Eddy accomplished was walking around the school, which made Eddy grumble about their situation being like gym class. Hesitantly Ed turns to Eddy with a minor look of worry as if he misplaced his favorite comic book.
Ed: You know what Eddy?
Eddy looking aggravated by the enternal boredom that was their free period.
Eddy: What is it now Ed?
Ed suddenly has philosophical attitude with a complete seriousness to him.
Ed: It's days like these that make you really think.
However Eddy was not taking Ed serious at all. He crackled and laughed with a small grin on his face.
Eddy: Think? You? What a riot!
Instead of Ed shrugging off his actions like Eddy expected, he seemed genuinely hurt by this. Eddy, in one of his rare moments of consideration for his friends, decides to listen to what Ed has to say.
Eddy: Alright , what is on you got on that peanut you call a brain?
Ed starts with a simple question that he sounds reluctant in voicing it to anyone.
Ed: How are gonna beat the bad guys?
Eddy is both confused and agitated by the question he was asked. The leader of the Eds couldn't make heads or tails of what he was asked.
Eddy: What the heck are you talk about Monobrow?
Ed explains himself while maintaining his composure so that Eddy would take him seriously.
Ed: The demon lords of the digital space Eddy, they mighty be making plans with evil time as we speak.
Having already gotten feed up with the conversation, Eddy demands the muscle of the group stop walking around it.
Eddy: Tell me something I don't know, just get to the point Ed!
Ed's composure is slowly fading away and revealing a worried and disheartened attitude. The Ed boy is looking worse than when his mom saw his report card. He looks dejected and lose any tone of positivity in his voice.
Ed: I just don't know what to do Eddy. Ed always wanted to fight evil monsters, but now I don't know if Ed will be able to protect everyone. What if they hurt Sarah, Mom, Dad, or Eddy and Double D?
Eddy was stunned by what he was hearing, had Ed really been thinking about all this. He didn't even bother to interject and just let Ed continue to vent to him.
Ed: I'm scared Eddy, what happens if Ed messes up and only starts to weigh down everyone?
It took sometime for Eddy to process all this information. He wondered what could have started all of Ed's uneasiness. Then he remembered all the close calls against the digimon. Eddy figured that with all the times Ed kept getting taken out of the fight and leaving it up to his friends must be affecting his morale. Once he figured this out he found the solution just as fast. Eddy turned up his charisma and puts an arm around Ed's neck and pats his cheek saying.
Eddy: Take it down a notch will ya Lumpy, everything is gonna be fine. Let your old pal Eddy handle the plans and you won't have to worry about a thing.
Just as quick as his mood change before Ed reverts back to his usual happy self.
Ed: If you say so Eddy!
The two were about to embark in search of something to do, but were stopped when they heard a familiar voice behind them.
?: Hold It!
They turned around to address the person behind them face to face. As the Eds face the voice they see it is Kevin wearing the school hall monitor sash with a note pad in hand. The jock was looking at them with securitizing eyes as if they were planning something suspicious, his voice filled with distrust.
Kevin: What are you dorks up to now?
The leader of the Eds was quick to be defensive and aggressively told off Kevin.
Eddy: None of your business Shovel-Chin!
However the baseball caped kid wasn't having any of what the short Ed was saying.
Kevin: It is my business when dorks are skipping class. Because, as you dorks keep forgetting, I'm the school hall monitor.
This meant little to Eddy and he stood his ground firmly. Not giving Kevin an inch, scammer decides to rub it in his face that they got a free period and he doesn't.
Eddy: Go stuff it Kevin didn't ya hear they canceled gym today, so you got nothing.
The two glare hatefully at each for some time until light ringing can be heard. This confuse all three children looking for the source of the sound. The Eds look into their pockets and see that is was their digivices, but to Kevin they just look liked phones. Ed and Eddy take a look at the caller ID and see it's Double D, Ed even went as far to shout it out.
Ed: PHONE CALL FROM DOUBLE D EDDY!
Eddy begun to rub his ears, sore from Ed's shouting, and sarcastically replies to taller friend.
Eddy: Yeah thanks for stating the obvious lummox!
Kevin was still hung on the fact that the Eds were the first ones in the Cul De Sac to have phones. Ever curious Kevin attempt to probe for information, but ended up sound desperate and jealous.
Kevin: Where did you get those!?
Feeling a little smug from Kevin's jealousy, Eddy replies with a cheeky smirk.
Eddy: Wouldn't you like to know?
Ed and Eddy answer the group call, and Eddy is the first to respond with his causal greeting.
Eddy: What's up sockhead?
This only got on Kevin's nerves more and more. He was not someone that you just ignore, he was the most popular kid school, the headquarter back on the football team, the coolest kid on the block, and his garage was literally filled with jawbreakers. There was no way the Eds had something he didn't, he could handle that so he shouts at them.
Kevin: HEY DORKS YOU BETTER NOT IGNORE ME!
Although Kevin was loudly shouting at the Eds, Double D was unable to hear him due to Eddy muting both his and Ed's digivices. So Double D carried on talking as if no one else was speaking, he sounded extremely thrilled.
Double D: Gentlemen I have procured several computers and the necessary equipment and am I need of assistance in transporting them to my locker for storage.
Having grown used to Double D's complex way of speaking it didn't take Eddy even a second to understand what he said. Eddy instantly unmuted his phone and voices his complaints to the brainy Ed, all the while he sounding increasingly furious.
Eddy: HOLD IT EINSTEIN! How much did you spend on all this stuff?!
The sock headed boy cringed at his friend's loud declaration. He understood just how uptight Eddy was with what little money the were able to scavenge together. Double D collects himself and replies carefully to Eddy.
Double D: Ease yourself Eddy, Ms. Terrance gave them to me free of charge seeing as they would have been disposed of anyhow.
To say that Eddy was happy was putting it lightly. The small Ed boy pump his fist in the air and with a wide smile on his face congratulates his pal.
Eddy: Alright Sockhead!
Double D was pleased with the praise he was getting from his friends, but remained firm for the task ahead.
Double D: So could both Ed and you stop by the library with a wagon to help me in the moving.
Despite the fruitlessness of the gesture Ed salutes cross eyed to Double D sticking his tongue out.
Ed: Aye aye Double D!
As the were about to end the call Kevin decided to intervene in shouting with his voice filled with discontent.
Kevin: HOLD IT DORKS! You ain't going anywhere.
This confused the Eds causing the already moving Ed to freeze in mid air and fall face first to the ground. Dazed Ed with stars floating around his head vocalized his thoughts to his peers.
Ed: Huh?
Eddy growled at his rival with hate sowed to his voice.
Eddy: What gives Shovel-Chin!
His retort to short Ed was bordering on smug and snobbish Kevin speaks to three Eds with authority.
Kevin: You dorks are forgetting something, You know that phones are against school policy. So I guess I'm just gonna have to confiscate those from you dorks, yours's too Double Dweeb!
He proceeds to try and snatch the devices starting with the short Ed first. However Eddy wasn't going to just let him take it without a fight, he keeps the digivice out of Kevin's reach. The two continue fight over the device for quite some time hair was pulled, feet were shoved into faces, and the two rolled around on the ground. During all this the speaker phone was activated and Double D had enough of this meaningless squabbling. He clears his throat and addresses Kevin directly.
Double D: Actually Kevin upon reading the school handbook several time over I found it is frowned on to use cellular device during class hours, but not during free periods such as lunch. This was due to the fact that parents wanted to be able get in touch with their children incase of emergence. I also have registered our phones with the principal before spring break and he has graciously allowed us to keep them in school as long as we followed the rules.
Eddy held back his growing smirk as Kevin glared blaringly at the device. Eddy just couldn't help himself to be a little bit more confident and started to talk down to the jock, placing his hands are on his hips.
Eddy: HA! What's wrong Kev? Jealous that we have phones and you don't? Guess that makes us that much cooler than the rest of you chumps!
Kevin growls at the Ed and proceeds to drop him walking away. He looks over his shoulder at the two Eds, but is speaking to all three of them.
Kevin: This ain't over dorks, not by a long shot!
This threat didn't fazed Eddy however and he mearly shoos Kevin away motioning with one hand while the other is on his hip and both eyes closed.
Eddy: Yeah yeah yeah, I heard it all before super cop. Why don't you go back to waxing that dumb bike of yours, I mean it needs all the cleaning it can get to look as uncool as you Kev.
Kevin just growls and leaving trying to avoid causing trouble.
AFTERNOON
The three Eds exited their school as usual, Eddy was walking with an extra jiff in his step. Ed was lugging around a wagon carrying all the equipment they needed for Mechanorimon's autopilot system. Double D took a deep breath in and sighed in relief as they walked away from the school.
Double D: Another glorious and informative day of school wouldn't you agree fellows.
Eddy just stretches and turns to his friend to reply to with a bored expression plastered on his face.
Eddy: Geez Sockhead I don't know how but you really just get more boring as I know you. Fine I'll agree with you only cause we got to tell off ol'shovel chin you should have seen the look on his stupid face!
Eddy, reliving the memory of earlier today, begins laughing his head off as the continue onwards. The brains of the Eds however mood turns sour as his friend his heckling like a hyena. Double D sternly speaks to his friend in scolding manner.
Double D: Out of all things things that happened over the course of the day! Why must you always focus on the worst possible things Eddy?
Eddy looks over at Double D as he walked backwards.
Eddy: Oh come don't be such a stick in the mud. You can't tell me It didn't feel good to stick it to Kevin, back me up here Ed!
Ed who had a vacant look in his eyes and a small replies.
Ed: Gravy.
Double D pinches the bridge of his nose in frustration and sighs, he explains to his friends.
Double D: I was merely deescalating the situation Eddy, so that we wouldn't have the digivices taken away. Besides I do not revel in suffering of others like some degusting parasite.
Suddenly Ed jumps back into the conversation with vigor in his voice.
Ed: Oh! My grandpa got a bunch of parasites in his left earlobe!
This weirded out the other two Eds. Eddy sports a confused look on his face, while Double D was left between grossed out and exhausted. Unbeknownst to the boys a small figure lurking in the trees was following them. It was small in stature and hidden by the shadows. It bears it extremely sharp teeth at the boys and blends back in with the shadows. They continue down the path until they hears some rustling behind them. Looking in the direction the Eds see nothing, already they boys are disturbed by the helplessness of their situation. Eddy reacts with slight paranoia looks all over where they heard the sound.
Eddy: What the heck was that!?
Double D investing further looks around attempting at finding the mysterious source of the sound. Ed scratches his head, puzzled by the mystery. He replies to the short Ed with a matter of fact tone in his voice.
Ed: It is definitely not a chicken Eddy. Ed knows a chicken when he hears one.
Then the sound appears in the opposite direction and they turn to catch a glimpse of what was making that sound. What they see freaks them out even more, crouching in the tree is, what can best be described as, a small demon glaring at them. The beast all together vanished from their sight. Eddy having a mini panic attack demands answers from anyone, he didn't care who.
Eddy: Where did that thing go and what the heck does it want!?
Ed jumping to conclusions decides he must be the one to answer Eddy's questions and share his massive knowledge of fiction with his friends.
Ed: It must be a follower of Evil Tim, coming to destroy us for we know too much of his plans!
The smartest Ed boy gaze hardens and turns to his with the intentions of clearing up the issue at hand.
Double D: Come now Ed it is clear we are dealing with an enemy of the "digital" variety not a absurd fictional creature.
Ed being the oblivious boy he was didn't know what Double D was implying.
Ed: Huh?
Sighing once again Double D elaborating more, as he is used to, the unibrowed boy.
Double D: It was a digimon that we saw pass us Ed overhead.
The digimon quickly moves out from it's hiding spot. It rapidly flies away from the Eds and heads straight towards to the Cul De Sac. Seeing this Double D panics greatly, fearing the worst.
Double D: Oh dear! It's heading straight for the Cul De Sac!
Not handling the lack of diligence, Eddy takes the lead and snaps at his best friends into action.
Eddy: So enough with the talking and lets go get it already!
The Eds rush to catch up to the mysterious digimon before it could reach the Cul De Sac. Sprinting as much as they could they shortened the distance between them and the monster, but are unable to close gap. All the while they still couldn't get a clear glimpse of what it looked like. It leads the three into many different obstacles along the way such as fences, trees, rocks, scrubs, and bugs. The Eds were getting desperate as they grew more and more tired from the exhausting chase. Along the way Ed reaches into his jacket pulling out several old, disgusting, moldy, and slimy sandwiches. The boy attempts to bargain with shady digimon while wiggling the revolting sandwich high.
Ed: Come to Ed mutant birdie of the digital plane and you will receive offerings of toe jam sandwiches for as long as you want!
Taking one wiff of that sandwich the other Eds' faces convulsed in disgust, Double D covering his face that changed green while Eddy was gagging. Double D justifiably upset from Ed's rotten sandwich and it's extremely horrendous smell shouts out his friend's name and demands an explanation.
Double D: ED! Why would keep something so vile and repulsive on your person! More importantly what would lead you to believe anything would want to or be able to consume those abomination of food!
Much to all the Eds surprise the digimon stops for a moment before immediately charging in their direction. The boys duck out of the way of the incoming digimon and roll on the ground. As they got up from the ground the Eds look around in order to find where the digimon went off to. They soon found it lurking in the nearest tree hunched over, devouring something in it's hands. Each had their own reaction to what the digimon jealousy, sickness, and anger. The reason for these emotions were quite clear, the digimon was eating all of Ed's sandwiches. It continues gorge itself sloppily, endless drool leaking from the monster's mouth. Ed dismayed by the theft cries out to the world.
Ed: MY SANDWICHES!
Double D looking as if he is on the verge of vomiting begins to turn more green by the second.
Double D: GOOD LORD I AM GOING TO BE ILL!
Eddy clearly annoyed by all the yelling and pointless banter made by his oldest pals. Making himself heard Eddy commands them.
Eddy: NOW IS NOT THE TIME! CATCH IT!
As the Eds were picking themselves up the digimon has just finished off the last of the sandwiches. It then flew off into the distance far beyond the view of the three boys. Eddy explodes with rage and yells at the top of his lungs.
Eddy: GREAT IT GOT AWAY!
Double D tries to soothe Eddy's tantrum as much as he could by stating the facts.
Double D: It was inevitable Eddy, the digimon's absurd speed and mobility advantage due to it's aerial prowess made it all the more difficult to apprehend, then including the forest's natural foliage gave it plenty of room to hide, and not to mention it's size made it an even more daunting task for us. Despite our best efforts we were simply outclassed from the very beginning, still it was worth a shot.
Ed, still hung up on the fact that his food had been stolen, distraughtingly reminds his friends of so.
Ed: It took my sandwiches guys!
Double D looks as if he is about to relapse and then puke as he remembered all those atrocious sandwiches.
Double D: Please don't remind me of that Ed.
He turns attention to the elephant in the room.
Double D: Did either of you get a good glimpse of the digimon?
The lengthy Ed shakes his head rapidly.
Ed: Nuh uh!
Needless to say Eddy was mad, enraged by their failure.
Eddy: How could we the thing was moving all over the place!
Double D takes charge of group giving the game plan for how to deal with the digimon
Double D: It seems we best get the equipment to the junkyard immediately and see what we can uncover from their.
LATER
The junkyard despite the misshapen piles of old junk the place is as solid as concrete. Currently all is peaceful and quite, undisturbed by no one not even an ant. Then from the junk pile emerges Mechanorimon performing several parkour stunts. All while Hyokomon's laughter can be heard from the inside of the mechanical digimon. The two then turn to the nearest pile and proceed to smash it to bits. Hyokomon laughs louder while Mechanorimon shows slight concern with the noise they were making.
Mechanorimon: Hyokomon I know I allowed you to pilot me, but I am worried that we are making too noise. We might be seen by an innocent bystander or the police might arrive due to noise complaints.
The rookie level digimon sheepishly apologies to the mechanical champion.
Hyokomon: Sorry for over stepping my boundaries my metal friend. It is just so much fun smash things and I'm not strong enough to do it myself.
Tenderly comforting Hyokomon on his action Mechanorimon replies not blaming him.
Mechanorimon: I completely understand my friend. More often than not, I would dream of the day that I would be unrestricted and free from the limitations of my programming.
Hyokomon begging like a child asks his friend.
Hyokomon: So can we smash one more pile please?
Mechanorimon sighing tiredly answers the young digimon with a strong parental tone.
Mechanorimon: Very well, but only one more and that's it do we have an understanding.
The avian digimon starts excitedly thanking Mechanorimon over and over again.
Hyokomon: Thank ya! Thank ya! Thank ya! Thank ya! Thank ya! Thank ya! Thank ya!
With approval Hyokomon begins to ramp up Mechanorimon's right arm. Hyokomon takes notice of all the surrounding junkpiles and decides to destroy the largest junkpile. No hesitation whatsoever Hyokomon has Mechanorimon punch the pile and causes all the junk to be sent flying skyward. As the junk is falling the Eds arrive to meet the digimon only for metal to rain down hard on their heads. Ed gets his head stuck in a old broken grill, Double D is frantically dodging oncoming projectiles and Eddy being the one to take the blunt has a large boiler flatten his foot and then get smacked in the face with a satellite dish. After regaining their bearings Eddy shouts in raged.
Eddy: WHAT THE HECK IS GOING ON AROUND HERE!? I thought we told you to keep a low profile!
Taking full responsibility Mechanorimon goes over what occurred.
Mechanorimon: Apologies Eddy Hyokomon mearly wished to pilot me and I would be lying if denied wanting to stretch my limbs somewhat. Though in our merrymaking we might have ended up causing quite the mess.
Ed hopefully looks at Eddy with amusement in his eyes.
Ed: Eddy can Ed have a turn?
This question causes Eddy to lash out at his friends. Grabbing Ed by the collar Eddy stands on his chest glaring directly in his face.
Eddy: No way Lumpy! Your chicken and Sockhead's robot already caused enough damage anymore and we'll get caught.
Making his presence known so that the conflict will end Double D causes Eddy to get off of Ed.
Double D: Ahem! Eddy while I agree that keeping an low profile is of utmost importance, currently we have a time sensitive mission.
Perplexed the mech digimon asks his human partner with a caring tone.
Mechanorimon: What is troubling you Eddward? Is it another digimon perhaps?
The one to answer Mechanorimon was Ed who signaled by making a circle with index finger and thumb.
Ed: Righto buckaroo!
Hyokomon shocked and worried asks the Eds.
Hyokomon: What happened are ya guys okay!?
Eddy huffs sticking his hands in his pockets and kicks the ground infuriated.
Eddy: The stupid pest got away after making us look like chumps!
The beanie wearing Ed boy takes a look back on the day with some positivity as they received crucial items that would help later on.
Double D: The bright side of today is that we have finally attained the computer we needed and I should be able to get it up and running with some help from Mechanorimon.
Still sore from the loss earlier and eager for vengeance Eddy orders Double D.
Eddy: Well hurry it up Sockhead! We still need to find that thing and get some payback.
Mechanorimon politely reassures Eddy.
Mechanorimon: Have no fear Eddy, Eddward and I will begin the preparation in repairing the computers immediately.
LATER
Eddy is rapidly pacing around the retro van grumpily, meanwhile Ed was reading comic books with Hyokomon. Growing evermore impatient Eddy starts banging on the back of the retro van loudly asking.
Eddy: Hey are you eggheads done yet or what?
Double D, slightly annoyed, replies still in the van with his digimon.
Double D: Not yet Eddy we still need a little more time to install new software and make sure the motherboard is working properly. Then all that's left is to see if it works.
Eddy still impatient goes back to marching back and forth. Several moments later Double D opens the backdoors of the retro to reveal a new computer built into the side of the vehicle. Showing his friends the freshly modified computer Double D says.
Double D: Gentlemen thanks to the efforts of both Mechanorimon and I Not only were we able to get the computer fully operational again, but we also improved it greatly!
Totally dismissive of Double D's boasting Eddy harshly says.
Eddy: Yeah, yeah tell us later Sockhead we got us a digimon to catch here!
While somewhat hurt over Eddy blowing off the hard labor both Mechanorimon and him put into the computer. Double D understood where Eddy was coming from and decided to ignore the rude attitude.
Double D: Well let me just search through any local news stories on that the description of mysterious flying creatures that appeared over the last month.
Ed curiously asks Double D.
Ed: Double D did you find the monster that devours the sandwiches of Ed?
Double D looks over the multiple news articles to give Ed a proper response.
Double D: While examining several articles Ed I discovered numerous sightings of our mysterious creature and as it happens they are all vague. No clear description of it's appearance, only distinguishing features like large teeth and it being able to fly.
Eddy sighs in frustration and throws his hands up.
Eddy: Great back to square on again!
Ed and Hyokomon take a look around before asking Eddy.
Hyokomon: What square Eddy? All I see is the van, right Ed.
Ed: Yepity yepyep my tiny chicken friend.
Eddy groans at the ignorance of the two before facepalming himself. Double D however was using this time to search any correlations between the sightings. When he was done Double D had found only one connection, but said connection left him squeezy.
Double D: Gentlemen if you kindly give me your attention I may reveal my new findings.
This peaked everyone's curiosity and Mechanorimon asked.
Mechanorimon: Oh dear! Eddward you are looking slightly ill is everything all right? What is it that you found?
Composing himself Double D speaks to his friends.
Double D: I am quite fine Mechanorimon, it is just that what discovered sickened me. My friends I have found connections with all the sighting, note earlier when we were chasing the digimon and it seemed would not able to capture it. Then suddenly It changes directions and barreled right to us after Ed pulled out his sandwich. after looking over each report of the creature it would always be feasting from sort garbage or rotten food.
Mechanorimon while calm on the outside is deeply disturbed on the inside, Eddy gags at the prospect, while Ed and Hyokomon are unfazed.
Eddy: So all we got to do is find the biggest garbage heap and we find the digimon right?
Double D hesitantly nods to Eddy.
Double D: Cc-correct Eddy.
Ed stands up pointing to sky.
Ed: I, Ed, know where we can find such a place! Onwards my friends to the dumps of garbage!
The hatted Ed boy shivers in fear and disgust replies with sarcasm in his voice.
Double D: Oh joy.
