Night had fallen on Kakariko village, and most of the residents were sleeping peacefully in their homes. Inside one house were our heroes. Link, who was sleeping with his sword nearby in case any trouble arose, with Navi sleeping in has green cap. Ed, who was snoring and drooling on the floor. Eddy, who was curled up and dreaming of being famous. Edd however, who had been labeled to the wall for trying to label everything again, was stirring from slumber. He woke and looked around at the dim room before struggling, trying in vain to break free from the wall.

"Curse that Eddy for sticking me to the wall like a decoration." he grumbled under his breath before looking at his friends. "Ed! Eddy! Link! Help me!" he whispered at them. Link was the only one to respond as he slowly sat up and looked around, his hand near his sword.

"What is it?" he asked in a groggy voice.

"I apologize for waking you Link, but I urgently need to use the lavatory!" Edd whispered.

"Use the what now?" Link asked as his eyes adjusted to the dark.

"I have to go to the bathroom!" Edd whispered bluntly as he struggled against the labels keeping him on the wall.

"Oh...okay." Link yawned before standing up and walking over towards him.

"Thank you Link." Edd said in gratitude as Link pulled the labels off.

"This wouldn't have happened if hadn't of tried to stick these strange things everywhere." Link mumbled as freed one of Edd's arms, allowing him to help peel the labels off. After a few minutes, Edd was free from the wall. "I think the bathroom is out the door and to the left."

"Thank you." Edd whispered.

"Thanks for telling us, because now I gotta go." Eddy grumbled as he sat up out of bed and followed Edd.

"Who's there?" Ed asked as he quickly sat up off the floor. "Is it time for breakfast?"

"No. Everyone just has to use the bathroom." Link muttered before walking out the door.

"Okay." Ed said before following them.

'Maybe I can get some sleep now.' Navi thought before curling up in Link's cap. The boys each used the bathroom one at a time before coming back to the room and lying down. They laid there for a good fifteen minutes before Eddy growled.

"Ahh, I can't sleep now!" he said in irritation.

"Me neither." Link added as he, Edd, and Ed all stretched.

"Maybe we should climb Death Mountain now?" Eddy asked.

"Not at night. That would be too dangerous." Edd said.

"Oh! Oh! How about the Graveyard?" Ed suggested with a smile.

"The Graveyard?" Link asked. "Why there?"

"What if we discover something amazing inside?!" Ed repeated.

"Like...treasure maybe?" Eddy asked, a grin flashing across his face.

"As 'fun' as that sounds, I'm quite content on staying here." Edd said as he began to sweat.

"What's wrong? Scared?" Eddy asked in a mocking tone.

"...Yes." Edd answered meekly, causing Eddy to laugh.

"I bet that there's all kinds of zombies and ghosts and other spooky things out there!" Ed ranted in glee before grabbing Edd and running out the door, with Edd protesting the whole way.

"I guess we're visiting the Graveyard." Link said as he put his cap on his and his sword and shield on his back.

"Guess so." Eddy added with a grin as the two of them followed Ed.

-Graveyard-

The four boys stood at the entrance to the Kakariko Graveyard. The whole area was littered with headstones here and there, a wooden entrance at the front. Ed was smiling, Link was wary, Eddy was sweating, and Edd was trembling so bad he couldn't hold still.

"Okay, this is a little creepy." Eddy said, now thinking that this was a bad idea.

"Whatever's out there, we can fight." Link said as they slowly stepped into the Graveyard.

"Okay, I've seen enough! Let's go back!" Edd muttered in terror.

"It's just a bunch of graves." Eddy said, trying to sound brave.

"Bring out the zombies!" Ed yelled.

"What's a zombie?" Link asked.

"Who's there?" someone called from behind them. Everyone turned to see-

"ZOMBIE!" the Ed's yelled, different reactions on their faces.

"Hehehe! That's a new one." said the bald, hunchback man carrying a shovel as he approached them. "Don't mind the scary face. I'm no bad guy." Link sheathed his blade while Ed grinned at the man, leaving Eddy to try and wake Edd up. "The name's Dampe. I'm the gravekeeper here."

"Gravekeeper?" Link asked.

"That's right. It's my job to keep this place in order." Dampe said with a smile. "So, what brings you four here?"

"We couldn't sleep, and my friend here wanted to visit the Graveyard to find ghosts and stuff." Link explained.

"I see," he said as he looked at Ed. "So, you want to meet ghosts boy?" Ed enthusiastically begin nodding his head. "Well that's simple. Just pull on a few gravestones and a Poe's sure to pop out. But!" he yelled before Ed could run off. "If you find one, defend yourselves. The spirits don't like being disturbed."

"Noted. Thanks." Link said.

"And also, be wary of that large gravestone in the back." Dampe warned. "They say that a hidden secret only accessible to the Royal Family of Hyrule, or those with a connection to them, is hidden inside the grave it conceals."

"Thanks again." Link said before he and the others tried to wake Edd up.

"What happened?" Edd asked as he shook his head.

"We ran into a gravekeeper that looks like a zombie and you passed out." Eddy summed up.

"Oh, so it was just a person." Edd said in relief.

"He said that ghosts come out sometimes if you mess with the gravestones." Eddy finished, making Edd tremble again.

"And that there's something cool hidden beneath the big one back there!" Ed stated while pointing his finger at the big gravestone in the back.

"Let's go! I bet it's loads of treasure!" Eddy said as he greedily rubbed his hands together while walking towards the grave. Link and Ed followed, the latter dragging a reluctant Edd behind before they stood in front of the grave. "What's this say? I can't read this."

"It must be in their n-native language." Edd stuttered.

"Let me see." Link said before reading it. "It's basically what Dampe explained. If we prove we have a connection to the Royal Family, we can enter."

"How do we do that?" Eddy asked.

"We can play that song we learned back at the castle!" Ed said.

"That's right. It's a melody that only members of the Royal Family should know." Edd stated. Link nodded before he took out his ocarina and began to play the song. He stopped when he noticed the grave begin to crack as the ground trembled beneath them. Without warning, lightning struck the grave, blasting it to pieces and sending our heroes away.

"What was that?!" Eddy yelled as they looked at where the stone once stood, revealing a hole that lead deep underground.

"We have found the entrance!" Ed yelled in triumph.

"NO!" came two ghostly shouts. The boys looked around before two ghosts appeared from the two gravestones that were on both sides of the giant gravestone.

"AH! GHOSTS!" Edd yelled.

"So, Ganondorf still seeks our research!" said the one in red.

"And so he sent his henchmen to rob the Royal Family's grave!" said the one in green.

"WE WILL NOT ALLOW THIS!" they both shouted before they each pulled out a sword. "EN GARDE!" The boys barely had time to draw their weapons before the ghosts were upon them.

-Link and Edd-

Link and Edd were battling the Poe in red as it lunged and thrust with it's sword.

"Ah! NO! Stop!" Edd yelled as spirit slashed his Deku stick to pieces.

"DIE!" yelled the ghost before he thrust at Edd, only for Link to step in and began to fight against him. "Hmph! As if I'll lose to you!" growled the ghost.

"Double D! Snap out of it!" Link yelled as he continued to fight against the Poe. Edd was still shaken from his near death experience before taking a few deep breaths and searching his pockets.

"Drat! I only have a single Deku Nut!" Edd cursed before gripping it tightly. "I have to make it count!" He waited until the right moment during Link's fight before the two of them were in a deadlock. "LINK! DUCK!" Link didn't know what Edd planned, but listened and ducked, which allowed Edd a clear shot with the Deku Nut.

"AHH! I'M BLIND!" yelled the Poe before Link rammed his sword through the spirit, causing it to shrivel into a little flame with a face.

-Ed and Eddy-

"BEGONE, FOUL SPIRIT!" Ed yelled as he swung his Deku Stick at the Poe in green, only to miss as the spirit vanished.

"Missed me!" said the Poe before stabbing Ed in the butt, making the boy jump skyhigh out of the Graveyard. "Now, to finish your shrimpy companion!"

"Oh, that's it!" Eddy yelled as he began to swing wildly at the Poe, only for it to laugh and disappear again. "That was pathetic."

"Oh yeah?!" Eddy yelled as he turned to fight him again. "Well this time, I'm gonna-"

CRASH!

Eddy stopped when Ed landed right on top of the Poe, smashing it into a tiny face flame.

"That hurt." Ed simply said. The Poes defeated, the boys regrouped as the spirits began to talk to them.

"Woe is us! Unable to protect the Royal Family's Tomb from Ganondorf's goons!" they both cried.

"If you two would shut up for a moment, you'd be able to hear us tell you that we're NOT Ganondorf's men!" Link yelled.

"Wait? You're not?"

"NO!" the four boys yelled.

"Oh...oops." said the Poes.

"We apologize for our abrupt behavior. Allow us to introduce ourselves. I am Sharp the Elder!"

"I am Flat the Younger!"

"Sharp and Flat?" Link asked.

"Indeed. In life, we were known as the Composer Brothers." Sharp explained.

"Sorry again for attacking you like that. We thought you were Ganondorf's men here to steal our research." Flat apologized.

"We're not here to steal anything. We only came here because we heard that a secret was buried here." Edd explained.

"I see," Sharp said. "Well, when we heard the song passed down by the Royal Family and only saw you four strangers in less-than-royal garments, we sort of..."

"Panicked." Flat finished in embarrassment.

"Hey, with a guy like Ganondorf trying to steal your stuff, I don't blame ya." Eddy said.

"If I may inquire, what research were you two trying to protect?" Edd asked.

"Well, we were called by the Royal Family to study the mysterious power in the song you just played." Sharp began.

"We couldn't figure that out after much studying though. But we did make a magical song of our own." Flat stated.

"It had originally been two songs. One to call the sun, the other to call the moon." Sharp said.

"And when we combined our research, we created a brand new melody." Flat finished.

"But that blasted Ganondorf wanted our research, and he killed us when we refused to elaborate!" Sharp said in anger.

"What is it?" Ed asked.

"It's," Sharp began, making the four boys lean in. "Down there." Sharp finished, floating over the hole.

"What? Why don't you just tell us?!" Eddy yelled.

"Because we don't know if others are listening." Flat whispered. "Better that you find it yourselves than have us speak it out in the open."

"He does make a fair point Eddy." Edd said.

"Let's go play music!" Ed yelled before jumping down the hole.

"Wait for us Lumpy!" Eddy yelled before he and the others jumped in after Ed.

"Do you think we should've told them about what else was down there?" Flat asked as he and Sharp returned to their graves.

"They're tough kids. They can handle it." Sharp said.

-Inside the Royal Family's Tomb-

The Eds and Link stared around at the creepy tomb that was littered with bones and such. A door stood atop high steps covered in ancient letters of some sort on the other side of the room, sealed with iron bars.

"Well this isn't spooky." Eddy muttered as they walked in.

"You're right," Edd mumbled in fright. "It's terrifying!"

"AHHH! BATS!" Ed yelled as he began to swat at the bats flying around him.

"Those are Keese! They're weak, but annoying!" Navi explained before one of them tried to eat her. "AHH! WHAT ARE YOU FOUR STANDING AROUND FOR?! KILL THESE THINGS!" After a few minutes, the last of the Keese fell to the floor, dead.

"That was fun!" Ed yelled as he held a broken Deku Stick in his hands.

"For you, maybe." Link grumbled as he, Edd, and Eddy rubbed the bumps that Ed left on their heads while swatting at the Keese.

"Can we please move on now?" Edd asked when the bars flew up, allowing them passage into the next room. "I'd like to get out of here soon."

"This song better be worth it." Eddy grumbled as they entered the next room. They walked down a narrow passage before coming to a room with jagged paths over poisonous green water.

"Let's not drink the water." Edd stated as he looked at the water in disgust.

"Look!" Ed whispered, his body barely containing his excitement as he pointing to a few figures standing still in the room making low moaning sounds.

"Bony bodies. No eyes! Bare teeth?! Moaning?!" Edd stated. "Gentlemen, I believe we've come across-"

"Zombies?!" Eddy finished.

"Ed must touch zombies!" Ed yelled as he slowly approached one.

"Ed! NO! STOP!" Navi yelled in panic before one of the creatures looked at Ed.

HRAAAAAAAAHHHH!

Ed froze in place after the creature released an nightmarish scream before it slowly advanced towards Ed.

"ED! WHEN YOU CAN MOVE, RUN AWAY!" Navi yelled.

"What was that?!" Edd asked as he and the others drew their weapons.

"Those are ReDeads! They freeze you with a bone-chilling scream, then jump on you before squeezing the life out of you!" Navi explained as Ed's body slowly began to move. Ed saw that the creature was near before turning and bolting away towards his friends. The four of them slowly backed away before the ReDead slowly turned and stood where it once was again. "They're blind, so they hunt by sound." Navi whispered to the shaken group. "If we sneak around quietly, we can kill them easily or avoid them all together.

"I vote for avoiding them!" Eddy quickly whispered.

"I second that vote!" Edd added.

"It's agreed! Everyone stay quiet, and let's sneak by them!" Link whispered.

"Can Ed still touch zombie?" Ed asked stupidly.

"NO!" they yelled before slapping their hands over their mouths. They looked to see if any of the ReDeads moved before sighing when they didn't budge. With that done, the four of them silently made their way through the room, making sure not to disturb the ReDeads. It was tricky with Ed forgetting what happened a moment ago and trying to touch them again before being restrained. Finally, they entered the door into the next area.

"Looks like it's the end of the line." Link said as he viewed the room. Inside was nothing but the Royal Family Tombstone in front of them, inscribe with words that none of the Eds could make out.

"What's all this garbage?" Eddy asked as he squinted his eyes at it.

"It's Hylian." Navi explained before reading the words. "Let's see..."

The rising sun will eventually set,

A newborn's life will fade.

From sun to moon, moon to sun...

Give peaceful rest to the living dead.

"Yawn." Eddy said in boredom. "Boring."

"I for one liked it." Edd stated.

"Poems make me sleepy." Ed said with half lidded eyes.

"Look here!" Navi shouted. The four of them looked to see a music bar and notes inscribed on teh Tombstone. "It's the Composer Brothers secret melody!"

"Guess that's my cue." Link said as he pulled out the ocarina and carefully read the notes. He played the notes a few times before he got the hang of it.

"That was it?" Eddy asked. "That's the whole reason we came down here?!"

"I'm afraid so Eddy." Edd stated to his angered friend.

"Hang on, there's more here." Navi said as she read more words.

Restless souls wander where they don't belong,

bring them calm with the Sun's Song.

"What does that mean?" Ed asked.

"Who cares?! Let's just go!" Eddy yelled before they all turned and left the room, putting them back in the room full of ReDeads.

"Uh oh!" Edd stated in realization. "I think they're more of them!"

"We can't sneak past them now!" Link said in a serious voice as he reached for his sword.

"Wait! The song! Try the Sun's Song!" Navi whispered.

"How's playing a flute gonna help us?" Eddy whispered harshly before Link played the song. After the last note filled the area, the ReDead's bodies shined, freezing them. "It turned them into lightbulbs?"

"It may be possible that the ReDeads despise sunlight, causing them to react like this to the Sun's Song." Edd theorized.

"It's like a zombie-sicle!" Ed said as he lifted up the frozen ReDead and waved it around.

"HA!" Eddy yelled as he pointed his finger right in a frozen ReDead's face. "Not so tough now, are ya? Whatcha gonna, huh? Nothing!"

"Eddy."

"Aww, big bad ReDead wants to scream? NOT HAPPENING!"

"Eddy!"

"Knock-Knock! Who's there? NOTHING!" Eddy yelled before laughing.

"EDDY!" Edd finally shouted.

"What?" Eddy asked with a grin.

"They're beginning to unfreeze!" Edd yelled in panic. Eddy looked to see that the light surrounding the ReDead was beginning to fade, causing Eddy's skin to turn ghostly white in fear.

"ED! DROP IT!" Eddy yelled as he and the others ran for the exit.

"Can't I take the zombie with me?" Ed whined.

"ED!" they yelled before pulling him along. They didn't stop running until they got to the hole they came in from and were shot back outside. The light looked slightly brighter as the sun slowly began it's rise towards dawn.

"Gentlemen," Edd started, his breath a little shaky. "I, for one, have had enough excitement for the time being. I believe I speak rather bluntly for all of us when I say...LET'S GET THE HECK OUT OF THIS FREAKING GRAVEYARD!" The others didn't need to think that over before the four of them rushed out of the Graveyard, with Dampe waving at them as they left.

"Come again!"

A/N: Sorry if Edd sounded a littl OOC, but I wanted to see him react like that.
