Eddy sat outside on the swing set rocking back anf forth. Looking down at his shadow.

"What's uyp with that?" Marie asked.

Eddy didn't answere. But kept on rocking back and forth.

Marie jumped on the swing next to him.

"I've never seen you act like that before." She said smiling.

"What do you want marie Kanker.." He asked.

Marie didn't answere.

Eddy got up from the swing. Heading for his house.

"Eddy wait." she said pulling his arm.

Eddy stopped in his tracks facing Marie.

"What hapened to Sarah? You almost killed her." She said looking worried.

"Go back to your sisters Marie, And leave me alone." He said pulling his arm away, He walked toward the middle of the culdesac and smacked his front foor shut.

Marie stood there puzzled wondering.

"That was weird.."

NEXT DAY

"Eddy! Get up its time for school!" His father yelled across the room.

There was no answere. And no sound of movement.

"Eddy!" He yelled again. No answere.

He got up and smacked his hand on the door then turned the nob, It was locked.

"Eddy open this door!" He yelled.

"I'm not going to school!" He yelled under his covers.

He smacked the door down, a loud bang touched the ground. Ringing threw Eddy's ears.

His father walked up to Eddy and pulled the covers off him.

"What's your problem son?" He asked demanding.

Eddy looked up at his father in a dark stare.

"Nothings wrong, Just leave me alone.." He moaned.

He pulled the covers back over him and tucked in tight.

"Son you have to go to school. Is there something wrong?" His father asked.

Eddy looked up at the roof.

"Where's mom.." He mumbled.

His father made a warm smile.

"He is in Heaven looking down at us smiling. Thinking "I have raised a wonderful child." He answered.

He pat his son on the shoulder.

"I'm not gonna make you go to school today, You can stay home if you want, But your going back tomorrow." He said walking to the door.

"Count on it." He said again, He pulled the door up and smacked it shut.

Eddy did a long sigh and laid back on his pillow. He went threw his minds of the disturbing thoughts and stories he always thought about. Then he would remember a song his brother taught him before she died.

Mother mother, can you hear me, I keep trying just to find me, all i know now, all you've shown me, endless questions,hopeless ending...

A LOUD honk suprised him. He jumped up and ran to the window.

"Come on Eddy!" Ed yelled threw the bus window.

Eddy placed his hand on his forhead rubbing it.

"I got nothing better to do.." He said to himself.

Ed stood there confused. Like as if thats never new..

"I'm not going to school today!" Eddy yelled threw out the traffic noise.

Ed scratched his head confused,

"He said hes not coming." Ed told Double D.

Edd gasped and pushed Ed out of the way.

"But Eddy! You must go to school!" He yelled.

Eddy smacked the window shut and jumped back on his bed.

"Maybe we should just leave him alone for now Double D." Nazz suggested.

"But no one should miss school." He said nervously.

Nazz shook her head.

"Let the dork stay home. He almost killed a child. I don't blame him for not showing his face around the school." He said."Besides, as usual he might DORK up the place.."

Edd frowned.

"Alright.." He moaned.

Edd sat back down next to Ed.

The lady closed the door shut and started the engine again. They road off to school.
