Chapter twenty
"Hey, guys!"
Marty was in the kitchen, shouting to her friends. Her friends ran into the kitchen.
"What is it?" Dea asked.
"Remember my dream was to go to New Zealand?" Marty said.
"Well, I'm going!"
Dea ran to Marty and they both jumped up and down.
"I've been working triple overtime, saving my money, and it has really paid off! Start packing, guys! We're moving to New Zealand!"
Everyone cheered.
"Let's start packing." Dea said.
Everyone ran home and got all their stuff to pack in boxes.
A week later, all we can see in Dea's house were boxes, lots and lots of boxes!
Dea was on the phone, talking to Marty.
"Yes. I'll tell them. Bye!"
Dea hung up, and went to the living room where the others were standing.
"Guys, Marty's already in New Zealand! She has a job as a waitress in a restaurant!"
"Congrats, Marty!" Double Dee said.
The next day, they were having a party.
The music was really loud and there were a lot of sweets.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
Dea opened it, and Jimmy stepped inside the house.
You know Jimmy, right?
Curlicue?
Sarah's friend?
The youngest person in the cul-de-sac?
I think you get the point.
Jimmy's 11 now.
He runs the cul-de-sac.
"What is all the ruckus? I heard three complaints from this neighborhood. You know the rules. Four complaints and you're out."
Dea smiled at Eddy.
"Eddy, c'mere."
Eddy went over to Dea.
"Do your stuff."
"Jimmy, you are the diaper rash baby who bugs Sarah all the time. You're so weak, you can't even pick up a for pound barbell! Yo mamma is so ugly not even rice krispies will talk to her!"
Jimmy got really mad!
"THAT'S IT! YOU'RE OUT! GET OUT! NEVER SHOW YOUR FACE IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD AGAIN!"
"Boy, that's a shame. Because we're moving to NEW ZEALAND!" Eddy said.
Jimmy was shocked.
"What, do we have to spell it to you? Alrighty then!" Dea said.
Amy, Ed, Eddy, Dea, and Double Dee spelled New Zealand simultaneously.
"N-E-W Z-E-A-L-A-N-D!"
They all laughed.
Jimmy left the house.
He slammed the door.
Dea saw something slide through her door.
"The telegrams are here!" She said.
Everyone cheered.
"There are four of them! Take one everyone!"
Everyone took one telegram except for Amy.
Double Dee read the first telegram.
"It says: GOOD LUCK ON YOUR JOURNEY SIGNED, THE KIDS FROM THE CUL-DE-SAC."
Marty read the second telegram.
"WE LOVE YOU GUYS, GOOD LUCK SIGNED YOUR PARENTS."
Amy read the third one.
"YEAH, GOOD RIDDANCE SIGNED BULLIES FROM THE CUL-DE-SAC."
Dea read the fourth one.
"This must be from Marty." She said.
She read the telegram out loud.
"Dear friends from Marty, Marty is…OH MY GOD!"
"What is it Dea?" Amy asked.
"Marty died yesterday. She was stricken by a…car!"
Everyone was quiet for a long time.
"Marty is…dead?" Double Dee asked.
"Yes, Double Dee…she's dead, but let's not cry…"
"WHY DID GOD HAD TO DO THIS!" Amy yelled.
Amy started crying.
Everyone except for Dea was crying.
Then, out of nowhere, a sad song came on.
FRIENDS
By Comicfreak1007
Genre: PopRock
Verse 1: Look at yourself in the mirror
You used to have a friend
But now your friend is gone…to heaven
Now the magic's gone
You're wondering what the cause is for the loss of a friend
Chorus: C'mon, c'mon, c'mon!
This is not the end
No matter what happens you'll still remember that friend
She had blue eyes and a sparkling smile
Hanging out with her made your life worthwhile.
Verse 2: Look at yourself in the face
You are sad, shocked, and out of place
You need to calm yourself…DOOOWN!
Chorus: Oh, C'mon, c'mon, c'mon!
This is not the end
No matter what happens you'll still remember that friend
She's 5'10"
She had brown hair
You wish that losing a friend wasn't FAAAAIR!
Verse 3: F is for all the fair things your friends did
R is for all the rights you gave your friend
I is for ignoring your friend when she is a nuisance and bad
E is for the excellence your friend did for you
N is for the naughtiness you friends sometimes do
D is for the dares your friend gives to you
S is the secrets you and your friends share
Step by step
Inch by inch
Brother, can your friend spare a pinch
BELIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVE that your friend is there
BELIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVE that your friend is beside you
BELIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVE that your friend is still here
BELIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVEEEE!
Your friend will always be in your heart
Your friend was here from the start
BELIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEVEEE!
Verse 4: Baby, c'mon, c'mon
Your friend isn't here, you have to be tough
Baby, c'mon, c'mon
Your friend isn't here, but you have to be TOOUGGGH!
(Song ends)
Everyone except Dea was crying.
They were crying for an hour.
Bet you guys didn't see that coming either, huh? This is not over yet! Please R&R! There will be a surprise in Chapter 22!
