Parasite Chapter 3: Tainted Air, Gliding Monster, an ed, edd n eddy fanfic

Tainted Air, Gliding Monster

"YOU IDIOT!" is the shout that could be heard from miles around as Eddy choked Ed in his hands, "It's your fault we are in this mess!" "But Eddy, I just wanted to have some adventure!" Ed cried pleadingly, "Have mercy!" "Eddy." Double-d said in his normal voice, "This isn't helping us, we might as well salvage what we can and attempt to find a way off of this planet." "But the computer slab told us to collect data of the mutants here and thwart Shadow's plans!" Ed told his friend as Double-d looked annoyed with the eyebrow of his hat lowered.

"Yeah right, like that's gonna happen. I mean everytime we face him we're with the Golden Hotel, an army, or at least a hero; there's no way we can do this on our own! He's an evil genius without a body, we are just three adolescent boys! We should leave this to the robots!" Double-d told his dimwitted friend. "But there aren't any robots left." Ed said simply watching his companions faces drop.

"Ew, what's that smell!" Eddy piped as he covered his nose, "It's like rubberbands burning!" "I can't breathe!" Exclaimed Double-d as he headed for the remains of their wrecked miniship, "Head for the ship! We should've checked the air here before heading out! How stupid!"

Ed closed the door and landed in his seat with a thump! "Breathing is good, I want to make a habit out of it!" Eddy exclaimed relaxing his back into the captain's chair and sighing pleasantly, "Wait, let's send an SOS guys, they'll sure send a rescue crew for us!" "Indeed they would, if the controls weren't fried…EDDY! You're the worst pilot in history!" Double-d told him angrily. "Well, I didn't see you helping mr. Perfect!" Eddy shot back. "I just wanted to see what everyone was looking at!" "SHUSH!" Ed hissed with his finger over his mouth and a frustrated face, "Listen."

Chirp! Chirp! CAW! These were the barklike caws that the three compadres heard from their dwelling. Immediately Ed slipped into a space suit under his seat as Eddy said "What the!" and flipped open the hatch above letting the foul air flood in. The other two found suit under their seats and got them on while Ed scanned the noise making creature with the computer slab.

Crilore:
Type: Bird Dog
Crilores seem to be a mix between oversized hawks and monsters. Sending out barklike caws and chirps to their companions; packs of them can come together and tear just about anything apart to feast upon. Their moster monster-like jaws filled with rows of razor sharp teeth allow them to even bite through diamonds. These creatures aren't the brightest around, but can be considered a threat in flocks.

Shcrapt! The Crilore snapped at where Ed's face had been before his friends had pulled him downward. "Take this!" Eddy shouted popping out and shattering the skull of the creature with a pipe. It let out one last desperate caw as it fell over desceased. "Aw, man!" Eddy shouted closing the hatch and falling backwards into the captain's chair. "I'll get them!" Ed cried about to throw open the hatch, but was stopped by Double-d. "Watch this!" he commanded pressing a button on the ship's control panel.

The three rushed over to a window just as the birdlike monsters were gassed and melted by the pipes in the sides of the ship. "This is a useful device, unfortunately we can't use it anywhere, because we can't fly it." He explained closing his eyes, "First, let's do something about this air here though. I ran a diagnostics of the planet a bit earlier and this seems to be the only part that has a poisonous atmosphere, so it must be being caused by some device. So let's shut it off." "Alright, but how?" Eddy asked. "The map on the computer told me the source of the air is coming from within a huge abandoned structure almost directly in front of us about a mile away. That's where we'll head. Also, I found some guns stored away beneath the floor that we can use. As far as I can tell they have unlimited ammo, but they can overheat so be careful."

"YEAH!" Ed cried finally excited that he gets to go on an adventure, "Let's shut down that pollution device!" "Alright boys, let's roll!" Eddy commanded throwing open the hatch and leaping out blasting a few Crilores in his way.

"My lord!" Edd gasped in amazement, "It's a laboratory!" Indeed it was. After blasting their way through a few hordes of Crilores they came upon the structure which the pollution was coming from, but it wasn't what they expected to see. Ed had imagined a huge crater with chemicals, Eddy a gas leak, and Double-d a machine. Instead a huge laboratory the length and width of three football fields side by side and the height of the Christler Building. Foul, tainted air leaked out of the cracks, windows, and doors of the building while Crilores swirled about its top.

"Enough site seeing, let's go!" Eddy shouted as the other two followed him through a door and into a darkened room. Caw! The Crilores cried at the intruders as they entered and swooped towards them, their mouths agap. "Duck!" Ed said crouching and shooting through one of their bellies. "Hyah!" cried Double-d somersaulting, flipping around, and shooting about fifteen in the face. "Come on!" Eddy lastly commented as he shot twenty down without moving an inch.

Crawkam! A new creature entered the battlefield and was scanned. Ed leapt around and read the info as his friends tried to damage it.

Arlongo Parasite:
Type: Energy Collecting Device
Supposedly one of the many end results of a series of expirements conducted by King Shadow, Jack Kite, Shelaunda, and Masks. This species of parasites can creep inside walls and through floors with its centipede abdomen and can fly with the use of its wings on the back of its thorax. Although it can still suck energy it does so by ramming one of its two arm tetacles down the captive creature's throat or other opening. Normally this will kill the creature, but they will supposedly not feel it because of how fast the action is. It can also kill the victim by the scythelike tail and its weakpoinst are its joints or seven rectangle eyes.

"Guys! Aim for its joints or eyes and don't let it tentacles touch you!" Ed screamed. "Say what! Ugh!" Eddy said spinning around and being hit in the back of the head by a tentacle meant for his throat. "You monster!" Double-d cried firing at its limbs and eyes blinding and paralyzing it at the same time. "Hiyah!" Ed cried finishing it off with a slam of his fist causing the thorax of the creature to crumble and it collapsed to the floor, "Run!"

The large parastites began popping out of the ground and falling from the walls as the boys rushed through about seven hallways before stopping at a room with a glass wall in it. On the other side was a skeleton of what looked to be a human with a laser gun in its hand. "Well," Eddy said out of breath and panting as he sat down, "Looks like we lost those things for now, let's take breather."

After sitting around for a while Ed got bored and smashed the glass to the other side of the room. The other two gasped as Ed threw himelf towards the skeleton to grab the gun. "Thank you." He said to the skeleton as its head fell off and he fused the gun with his own. It was then that Eddy noticed guns just like that one scattered all over the table they sat at and tossed one to Double-d. They fused their guns with the new ones as well and then Double-d asked, "This place looks like a containment chamber, well, before Ed broke the glass. You know, like to keep creatures in and stuff?" "Say, you might have something there, sockhead." Eddy told his friend

Just then a Crilore dropped down from a vent and attacked. Blam! It's body fluids decorated the wall as one of the new gun's shots passed through its head. "OW!" Eddy yelled as one of the creatures mawed his suits armpiece off, "Take this!" Another one down as Eddy shot the Crilore's chest, "Run… again!"

They were off again, but not for long as they entered a room with huge capsules in it. In each capsule appeared to be either a Crilore, a parasite, or a very horribly mutated animal. Ed scanned them and said, "Most specimens showing low life reading or are dead and the fluid they are in appears to be cold stasis." Chrashing! One of the capsules shattered and a mutant Crilore jumped at them, fell over, and died. "We'd better leave." Double-d said before some parasites came and sucked all the remaining energy from the corpse.

Upon entering the next room the boys found even more stasis tanks. "All low life readings, except…" Ed told them as he walked over to a tank in the middle of the room, "this one. Its life readings are off the charts." Inside the large capsule sat an or with a brain like substance inside its body. What looked like wires were connecting to the lifeform from all sides. As Edd's face approached the glass the brain turned and then shot out of the glass at him latching the its tentacle wires onto his body and inserting the into his back.

Quickly thinking Eddy and Ed managed to tear the creature off and throw it against the wall. "Oh, wait." Ed told them as he got out the scanner just before the delicate creature deceased.

Nucleor:
Type: Electricity Giver
These small brainish creatures collect and store energy from anything around them even if they are encased in objects and transmit the energy into electricity. Usually used by King Shadow's crew to light their bases and other structures they had to mutate octopuses with unrecognizable DNA to get them to work just right. Be careful with fulgrown ones as their electric waves can kill people in one blast.

"Thanks Ed, Eddy." Double-d sighed and they began to head for another room. Clang! A vent fell to the ground as an Arlongo Parasite entered along with many tinier ones. "Let's go…this……way………" Eddy tried to say but saw three Crilores blocking the entrance they had emerged into the room from, "Aw man…" Instead of leaping at the Eds, though, the Arlongo Parasite leapt between them at the deceased Nucleor. "Of course, it must've scensed the immense energy burst when you guys killed that octopus thing. It probably has been feeding off the energy of all the creatures in stasis, that's why the life readings were always low." Double-d explained quietly as they watched the beasts suck the up the remains of the creature.

The Crilores weren't there to eat the octopus however, they were far more interested in the meat of our brave adventurers. "GO!" came the voice of a staggering man in a blood stained lab coat as he fired at the Crilores. "Who's that?" Eddy asked, but was whisked away by his two friends. All he heard before vanishing up a staircase was the man shouting, "The frieght elevator's on the left once you get up there!"

"Guy's, LEFT!" Eddy commanded and shot through a door into the elevator room. "Wha…why are we here?" Double-d asked. "FOR ADVENTURE!" Ed and Eddy replied immdeiately, hit the up button, and the floor ascended towards the roof of the laboratory.

"Wonder why he told us to come up here." Eddy said to himself. A huge mostrosity of a bird about twenty feet long answered his question. The plant-looking bird flew over them darkening the sky above the collosium-like roof. Seeing the three bitesized creatures down below the creature took the oportunity to open its claw-like mouth and swoop towards heroes attempting to make them its next snack. "Fire in the hole!" Ed shouted blasting all of his shots into the gaping maw of the titanic monster.

"WAIT! I need to scan it!" he told himself sidesomersaulting and whipping out the computer slab as Double-d and Eddy fired after the beast.

Vrolgrall:
Type: Plant Bird
Through a series of great mutations and gene splicing epirements King Shadow's Pollution Existant subdivision of scientists were able transform a few Crilores into these immense polluting creatures. Planning to be used to pollute all the containment cells for the monsters of the subdivision they have set up a huge holding pen for the creatures in the very center of the laboratory. It has a weak point on its belly where its life support system resides.
Statis: 1 living 2 dead

"Guys, this monster's causing the pollution around here! Aim for the machine on its tummy!" Ed shouted jumping back in and fire at the power source. CRAWWWW! The beast cried as the shots struck the reactor head. The cry summoned nine Crilores from within and on the sides of laboratory to engage in combat against the eds. Struggling to keep alive the eds managed to disperse of the smaller birds just as the Vrolgrall decided to sweep back over the area and fire a blast of plasma from its mouth at the ground they shot from.

Managing to succesfully dodge the ray and fry the life support system again it summonded more Crilores to the arena. Tussling the birds again the eds managed to survive, but only with a bit of their lives left. Finally the Volgrall reappeared from one of the collosium doorways and fired at them again. The boys shot the machine a few more time while enduring the firery blasts of the monster and it summoned the final batch of Crilores.

"Woah, those are different, scan!"

Criloarsh:
Type: dog bird
These are Crilores mutated so much into metal platforms that they appear to have armour platings across their body. Blast there heads to kill.

This time, however, the Volgrall did not depart, instead it stayed and flew over blasting anything it could. Ignoring the smaller birds Ed managed to raise his gun enough to fire the last five times at the immense monster's life support system. BLASHM! The creature fell to its doom at the core of the arena where a gaping hole was. "COME ON!" Ed screamed ripping his friends from the jaws of the bird-like creatures and rushing towards the door to the elevator.

Just as they closed it a shockwave covered the entire roof disintegrating all the monsters on it into dust and the pollution stopped.

"Boy, that was some fight, I don't think I can walk another inch." Eddy remarked slinking into the room the Nucleor used to inhabit and was greeted by a bloodstained scientist and Arlongo Parasite and Crilore bodies decorating it. "What the?" Double-d asked. "Long story short: I held out in here for as long as I could, you guys beat the Volgrall I assume, the pollution stopped, and these creatures died when it went away." The scientis told them with a smile, his dark hair dangling in front of his young face, "Why don't you come with me to the cafeteria and I'll make you lot dinner?" The Eds took off their helmets and fainted from exhaustion.

Data Scans:

Criloarsh: Type: dog bird
These are Crilores mutated so much into metal platforms that they appear to have armour platings across their body. Blast thier heads to kill.

Well, I do hope everyone liked this chapter, I'm basing the story off of the story of a robot I made up called Tron. He survives the ships getting wrecked and goes on the eds' adventure. If anyone has a problem with me adding all the scanned creatures' info at the bottom of the chapter please say so and please don't base this story on the size of the other chapters, I know they were short. Let me know if any of you have suggestions of what I could do for the story or creatures I could add to make it better. Also the eds will eventually meet up with King Shadow and his friends, face them, and get off the planet. Please read (and if you can review) and have a nice day. Finally, Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, Felice Navida. Listen to the Ed, Edd, n Eddy Christmas special in spanish it sounds weird and Nazz sounds a lot older.
