As Told by the Veterans

Chapter two

"Resistance"

Lee sat on her couch watching the third sequel to "Under the Sea". May came into the trailer panting.

"I looked everywhere Lee, they are hiding worth a sandwich in a diner!"

"Keep looking," her sister never even looked at her. May frowned. Marie came in madder than May.

"Lee? Get off your fat, miserable can. You're helping us too." Lee stood up and shoved Marie to the door.

"No I'm not, I said YOU do it. So do it. Those boys can't be that hid, you're just lazy."

"You are the one who's lazy!" Marie grabbed the remote from her prying hands and threw it on the ground. "You aren't my boss Lee!"

"Yeah I am," Lee tossed her and May out the door and slammed it shut.

"I guess she is Marie," May said with her face stuck in a tree trunk. Marie growled.

Edd gently brushed alcohol on Veronica's cheek. She watched him with a smile on her face. This made Edd loose his concentration and he stared back at her. Eddy came in the room. Edd truned to him, ready to taunt, "Eddy how do you plan to defeat the Kanker sisters?"

"Ha, you can be skeptic 'cause Ed, her, and I are the muscle that will handle these weapons. Ed?" Eddy looked to the door leading into the garage. No one came. Eddy got impatient real fast, "Ed get in here!" Ed came in with garden tools in his arms.

"That's ten ninety-five shipping and handling sir!" he said. Edd studied the hoe, the metal rakes, and the shovel alarmed.

"Are you serious? This could kill them."

"We won't kill them, we'll just scare to get our point across," Eddy put his finger on one of the rake spokes at "point".

"I hope so Eddy," Edd swallowed hard.

"Ok, we will separate them and take them down one by one. We'll beat them and stick the rakes to their necks and demand them to leave us alone." Eddy smiled at his 'genius'. He poked the end of the rake spoke again, "They will get the point."

"Enough puns Eddy."

It was the fourth of June, about six in the afternoon. We marched through the heavy foliage of the woods. Ed led us to the end of the trees and stopped. There, ahead of us, was our destination. The trailer looked like silver in the blazing sun. I tugged at my shirt for air.

"Quiet," Eddy led us to the side of the trailer. We stood under a window. He directed his index finger to the left and headed that way with his knees bent so his strands of hair were not visible from the window. He trudged to the steps of the door and beat the door with his shovel. I swallowed hard and sweat. This was it. The adrenaline ran through me. Ed licked his dry lips. Veornica tightened her grip on her rake. I looked at mine. Could I really use this weapon? Too late to turn back, the door squeaked open.

"Eddy!" May smiled, "We were looked for you short ca..." she looked at the shovel in his fists. Gazing into his eyes, she became nervous. Before she could yell for Lee and Marie, Eddy grabbed her viciously and threw her off the steps. She landed in a pile of moist soil as Eddy slammed the trailer door shut. He hurled his shovel above his head and turned to May. She lifted her head and turned to me leaning agianst her trailer. Then she looked at Eddy. He began to laugh maniacally. May stood and grabbed the shovel from him.

"That wasn't supposed to happen!" he backed up as she began to hit him with his shovel. Veronica hither int hte legs witht ht rake. Ed followed, giving her a timid strike int he arm. He did it so lightly that May did not notice. The blonde turned to VEronica. The trailer door opened and Lee yelled.

"WHAT'S THIS?"

"It's an insurrection Lee!" May intersected the shovel with Veronica's rake. Lee grabbed Ed's hoe, but he would not let go. He lifted the hoe with her on it and flung her behind him. Marie came out and hit Ed on the head iwth a frying pan. Eddy grabbed May's head and put his fingers in her eye sockets. Veronica took this opportunity and retrieved the shovel. Ed poked Marie on accident with the hoe. She hit him on the head again. I watched helplessly. I tried to move my legs to help Eddy and Veornica as Lee came back from her flight with a tree branch, but I could not move.

"Double D, stop standing there!" Eddy demanded taking the shovel from Veronica and hitting Lee's branch with it. Lee lifted the shovel off her branch and hit Eddy with it in the head. He went down, dropping the shovel. Ed kept accidently hitting Marie with the hoe when he dodged her frying pan so dropped it. She picked up the hoe and laughed with satisfaction. Ed ran off. May was about to be hit witht the rake Veronica manuvered so she grabbed it with both her hands. Veronica tried to shake her off, wobbling her around. Eddy backed up into Veronica, making her lose her footing. The rake fell out of her hands and into May's control. May, Marie, and Lee charged at Eddy and Veronica. Eddy held onto Veronica scared of the future pain. I was forced to do what I thought I could not.

Those jerks came at me. Veronica was sitting on my arm. We both stared up at the tyrants. They laughed shaking our weapons. Lee put the rake under my chin and lifted my head to make eye contact.

"Good job bunny. Now we're going to beat you too." I heard a thump and Lee fell over to my left. Double D stood in her place. I couldn't believe he had whacked her. He looked at May and Marie who began to hit him. He shielded himself with his rake.

"Run," he begged us as he tried to hold up the two. I listened, Ed passed me to the fight.

"Come on Double D!" he yelled shoving Veronica to follow me. Edd hit Marie's hoe as she almost hit him. May charged with the rake. Edd saw her and quickly dropped his rake to join us in retreat.

"Run away!"

"Come back cowards!" Marie yelled. I didn't look back, but followed Ed as fast as I could to who knows where. We needed to run, to any place. I looked to my right,

Double D was struggling to keep up with us. Ed ran fast, I was almost loosing them. I didn't want to, but I looked behind me. The Kankers were twenty feet away, but they were coming up fast.

"Oh no," I mumbled. We couldn't run forever, we needed some where to hide. We past trees and bushes, trees and bushes. I had an idea; I couldn't shout it. I needed to get ahead of Ed so that I could lead. So I used all my energy to run ahead of Ed. It was so hard, I wanted to stop, but I couldn't. Finally I did it. It turned left and they followed me. Then I ran right. I looked back. The Kanker's weren't in sight, but I could still hear their yells. This was my chance. I dived into a large bush that was i front of me insteadd of running. After laying there for a second with branches snapping under me, I felt three bodies land on me. We lay quiet. I could see th groud form where I lay, I hoped the Kanker's wouldn't see me. A pair of shoes ran past, then two more going left. I sighed, my brilliant plan had worked. But how long was it until the found us?
