Author's note: This chapter is the longest one yet, so brace yourselves lads. There was supposed to be more in this chapter too, but I couldn't fit it in, and frankly, I figured it was better to wait for another chapter(s) to put the stuff in. This was fun to write, but man... it took a WHILE... so, I hope you all enjoy this one. :D
Chapter 16: IT'S A RAID!
What the heck is this title even? Alright, I guess we'll roll with it, even if it's silly...
Where were we... oh yes.
Chris arrived to Eddy's house, and told Eddy that they would need help in order to get prepared for a certain something.
Eddy didn't exactly understand what he meant, so he needed to understand more.
"What the heck is going on?! Why do we need to 'prepare'?!"
Chris kinda was stuck, as he wasn't fully certain as to how to explain the events.
"Alright... get ready for a story you'll enjoy. Probably. Maybe."
Chris then proceeded to explain for around 20 minutes how when they originally did the whole stunt 2 days ago, Double D made a mistake of finding Marie's diary and taking it on accident when they had to escape. Then, the two boys ran into the issue of how the heck they were to return it. Chris mentioned the whole plan he did with Double D, where the latter would distract Marie from the trailer, and the former would then proceed to get the diary inside the trailer, somehow. Chris mentions the fact that he had a conversation with May, and that Lee caught him, but he escaped by using one of his tricks.
"How the heck did you do that?!?! If only me and the boys had that, they would never catch us! Show me this!" Eddy said, talking about the way that he escaped from Lee.
"I'm not gonna waste it right now dude. I have only 2 left. I haven't made any in a bit, but they last. Until you use them of course, ahahaha."
Eddy then says, "So, what's sockhead doing?"
Chris laughs before saying, "Are you ready for this?"
Eddy responds, "Say it!"
"He... oh my lord..." Chris tried to speak but couldn't help laughing.
"Alright... he's basically in love with her now."
Eddy is not exactly happy with this news, as, in his eyes, the Kankers were always annoying, disgusting and ugly girls he just didn't like, and his friends didn't exactly like either. He was extremely disappointed in Double D.
"WHAT!?! That's IT!" Eddy said, getting up from his seat and to his door.
"Whoa... where are you going?"
Eddy says, "We're going to save sockhead! This is enough! Are you gonna let him just get mindcontrolled by Marie!?"
"I actually gave him the advice to not... you know, get into romance things, but either he gave in to his feelings, or... Marie... you're right. I'm willing to listen to them, but if Marie is forcing this on him... oh boy, Double D is in the DEEP..."
"Let's go get Ed! He'll help us out!"
"Alright then. Let's go."
Speaking of Double D and Marie...
The two of them were still talking about things, but Double D was only becoming more nervous, because in his mind, Marie was going to want answers at some point, and he wouldn't want to say anything. And... wow. Double D is terrible at hiding his nervousness, as Marie catches on to this, and proceeds to ask, in a calm tone,
"Is something wrong?"
"No no, everything is completely normal!" He quickly responded, throwing Marie off.
Of course, Marie doesn't buy this, not one bit.
"Come on, you can say what's wrong. I'll listen."
Double D simply didn't care anymore about what Chris would say, as, quite frankly, he was sick of the constant lying. So, he turns to Marie and says,
"Marie... there's a lot more to this... I guess you could call it conversation that we are currently having."
"You want a marriage between us? Oh Eddward, you shouldn't have!" Marie said very excitedly, but obviously kidding.
Double D just froze.
"I'm just playing with ya silly! What's going on?" Marie said, grinning at him.
Double D couldn't even register where these emotions for her were coming from. Again, he has not once in his time of knowing Marie, ever felt this way. Regardless, Double D explains... well... basically everything, just like Chris did with Eddy. Double D just goes into the details of how he took her diary by accident, when he realized he still had it, when Chris found him in the restroom, the entire plan he and Chris made to return it, the details, and basically everything. Oh yeah, and Double D also mentioned the fact of Chris's whole thing about how he was warning him to avoid anything romantic with her, and how he agreed, but didn't fully understand why Chris was so rough on her. Double D mentions the earpieces too, and that that's how he and Chris having been talking on and off for the whole plan.
"Let me get this straight, you pressured him to return my diary, and you were willing to talk to me, AND still kiss back, even if he told you not to?" Marie, overwhelmed by this info, said.
"Yes, after all, I was more interested, per se, after what occurred yesterday, as I've never seen that side of you."
There was strange silence for a couple seconds until Double D says,
"Marie, I will now apologize for stealing your diary. I really value that people can maintain their personal belongings without someone coming inside their household-"
That endless amount of word spitting was cut off by Marie pulling him in for a EXACT 30 second kiss. Of course, Double D decided to return it, yet again, but he got shocked even more then the first time, as he expected her to become insanely angry to the point where he was scared if he would even live. Hahaha, well... he's getting something completely different. Anyways, after the long kiss, Marie stares at him with a amorous smile, and Double D finds what is going on nearly impossible to register. So, he decides to break the silence, again, and says,
"Marie, why did you do that? I thought you would've-"
Marie covers his mouth with her finger, and says,
"You were honest."
Clearly, Double D couldn't get better circumstances than what is getting right now. He was basically on Cloud-9, as everything was going perfectly for him.
"But... don't you think you would've been a bit angry at the fact that someone stole your diary, and could've peeked inside?"
"Did you peek inside?" Marie asks.
Marie, he didn't.
"What?"
I was there was he had it the whole time. Just saying.
"While that was out of the blue, you can been assured that I have not seen any of the contents within the diary. I value your privacy." Double D said.
Double D then says, "Marie... do you believe what I said?"
"Of course! I trust you. And I doubt your friend would've admitted everything, in fact, he just would've hid everything. By the way, what are you doing to do about the whole 'no-romance' thing, even though you said that Chris knows? And, just saying, he is not going to have an easy time convincing me out of it, so don't worry muffin. But what's your plan?"
Double D didn't exactly want this to go to waste either, so he says, "I will attempt to convince him that you are more special beneath the surface level of what he might assume. After all, I do believe that people can change, and change can be a good thing, as it leads into great friendships, and relationships."
Marie felt like the happiest girl in the world, which isn't very usual for her. I mean, she could hardly believe that he was standing up for her, even with the past history. In fact, she then proceeded to say,
"You're so sweet! But... I guess maybe... do you like me...?" she said while grinning at him.
Double D was stuck. Did he want to tie the knot? Wait a bit? Would he friends understand this sudden relationship? Well, his decision came.
"Marie, will... umm... you see..."
Double D decided to stop himself, as he decided to show, not tell. What does this mean? Oh boy... he decides to do something that will be impossible to believe. Well, he leans into Marie's face, and he VERY reluctantly puts his arms around the middle of her... and goes in for a kiss. The first time he's ever done this, EVER. And Marie? She's now on Cloud-9 herself. As expected, she gives him the kiss back, and so, I guess you can say... a knot has been tied. Well, Double D makes sure of this by saying,
"Marie, will you be my girlfriend?"
Marie hugs him tightly and simply says, "YES!"
They hug each other in their little love bubble, and Double D just felt like he did the best accomplishment in his life. Yeah, he's more nervous then he has ever been in his life, but still, he managed to get his first girlfriend, but also, he managed to pull through, even through odds that seemed against him. Clearly, he got lucky, but also, he should really be thanking himself for being honest. Marie? She's just happy to finally have Double D as her boyfriend, plus, the fact that Double D, even with their past history, stood up for her mostly, couldn't make her feel happier than she did.
"Marie, may I go in for another..."
Marie cuts him off, and says, "Yes."
Double D leans in again, and well... now the two of them are 100% even. Marie kisses him twice, and so has Double D now. That's their 4th kiss in a row too, and by this point, it's pretty obvious, they are sealed together now.
But then, the door comes broken down REALLY hard, in it seems like a gag. Double D jumps, and Marie also gets shocked, as this seemingly came out of nowhere. Who did this?
"Ed, you moron! Don't slam us through the door like that! Jesus!"
It's no other than Chris, Ed and Eddy! This could get complicated.
"Oh, greetings gentlemen! Are you all alright?" Double D said concerned, with Marie staring at the sudden break
Eddy got up first from Ed's sudden crash, and said, "No! What the heck are you doing with Marie!?"
Chris jumps up too, and covers Eddy's mouth before saying, "Nope, NOT GONNA HAPPEN."
The manner that Chris said the last three words actually kinda made Eddy nervous, so he decided to not bother with talking anymore. Ed gets up too, and just, stands there... he seems to be worried about something, but it's not exactly clear WHAT, though. Anyways, Chris then proceeds to talk to Double D, by saying...
"Alright, well... what did I miss? Were you two having a moment?"
Double D looked embarrassed, and Marie looked annoyed, but the former was the one to speak, by saying,
"I suppose you could imply that. But Chris, please! I want to reassure you that I fully trust Marie, and that she's changed for the better!"
That statement wasn't the smartest thing to say, because Double D had little evidence of this. Chris then said,
"Okay, you know what?"
Double D was worried that Chris was going to go off on the whole thing, but Chris proceeds to say,
"If you trust her... I guess that's the more important thing. Not my opinion. Then again, it's not like you two are dating, because tha-"
"We actually are." Marie said, bluntly.
Glass is glass, and glass breaks. And glass broke the moment those words were said. No one in that room that wasn't Marie or Double D could believe what they just heard. I mean, to the three boys, they are just the flat out opposites, and them getting together seemed unrealistic beyond unrealistic. Chris, hardly believing this, says...
"Ah... wow. Just even I thought nothing could surprise me. How did this occur?"
Double D said, "By simple conversation and honesty of past problems, I would say that-"
"You just bonded like... that?" Chris said, snapping his fingers before saying "that".
"I suppose you could say that." Double D simply responded.
"Wow. And well... maybe I should address the elephant in the room, per se."
Marie was staring at him with an obvious expression of annoyance, as the fact that he had tried to make Double D avoid the whole romance thing... wasn't exactly a good thing to be known for right now. So, Chris cleared up the air a bit by saying...
"Yes, I know. But I'll explain everything soon, because... we might have an issue."
Marie says, "What?"
Before Chris answered, he noticed Ed... still standing there. But he was sweating bullets for... some reason? Chris decides to investigate what's going on.
"Ed?"
Ed does not respond.
"Lumpy! You there!? We need ya!" Eddy said, joining in.
Ed still doesn't say anything.
Or...
"They're coming..."
Ed said this insanely quiet, and Chris Eddy didn't hear him.
"What?" both boys say in unison.
"THEY'RE COMING GUYS! WE MUST HIDE, COLLECT THE SUPPLIES, AND-"
Chris cuts him off by saying, "CALM DOWN DUDE! Who the heck is... oh no."
The "they" that are coming are no other than Lee and May Kanker, who managed to find the 4 lads in Double D's house. Marie was stuck, as explaining herself to her sisters was going to be a much harder task to do than say. But then again, she didn't exactly wanna leave Double D mixed again on her, although she might be exaggerating, as... well, you've seen what's occurred on this day. She had a couple of valuable seconds before her sisters arrived though, so she told the 3 boys,
"Let me go to them and I'll make up an act. Okay? Play into it, all of you."
"This is gonna be fun! Hahaha." Chris said. Sarcastic or not? Does it matter?
"Double D, I'm gonna need you." Marie says.
Double D has no time to think before she walks out with him in a headlock and she yells out towards her sisters,
"Girls! Look who I found just waiting for a kiss!"
Marie, to put extra emphasis on her point, kisses Double D on the lips for a second. Of course, Double D would've entered a euphoria normally by this point, but he couldn't exactly do that, as his, Marie's and everyone else's cover would be blown, and he doesn't want to risk that. Lee then yells out,
"Well... great job Marie, and looks like you've found the other boys aswell."
Chris takes this as his time to react, although how he would do this is something that he would have to improvise for the most part really. Before he can think about that though, Lee says,
"So, you're the one who left without even saying bye! Where are your manners for a girl?"
"That's the stupidest thing I've heard. And I have manners. Not for you though." A daring Chris said. Yeesh.
"Oh okay." Lee said.
Clearly something was gonna go down, as Ed, Eddy, and Chris walked down to the middle of the cul-de-sac, where Lee, May and Marie, who was holding Double D "hostage". Obviously just for the act, but you know.
Chris said, "Marie, let him go! He's not your stupid property."
Marie responds by saying, "Hmm... I think I'll claim him as such, right muffin?" She says before kissing him... again. Double D doesn't show it, but he's having a hard time pretending for this act, as... well... it's not exactly the same as it normally, right?
"Dude... if you don't let him go, I'm gonna smack-" Chris was saying until Lee, cutting him off says,
"You don't get to make the choices here boy! Why don't I show ya?"
"Oh man, what's going on here?" Kevin, from his door says,
"Wait, is that not the new-kid-Chris-boy Rolf was introduced to a mere moments ago?" Rolf, with Kevin says.
"We've met him weeks ago Rolf, not moments." Kevin says.
"Hang on, why haven't I've seen that guy before?" Nazz, who is Kevin's girlfriend, asks.
"Oh right... I haven't told you about him. Well... wait a minute well ya?" Kevin tells her.
Chris realizes that everyone's is starting to notice the commotion dead center in the cul-de-sac. So, he says,
"Just give Double D back! He doesn't belong to you, Marie! I'M SERIOUS!"
"Jeepers Sarah! What's that all about?" Jimmy says, peeking out of a window, seeing what was going on.
"Stay out of it Jimmy, looks like trouble..." Sarah says.
"If you want him back, you'll meet us at the Pit, right girls?"
Everyone, and everyone means everyone, couldn't believe what they just heard. I mean, I'll just repeat it, glass is glass, and glass breaks. Chris doesn't know about the the Pit at all, but before Chris can ask any questions, Eddy steps in and says,
"Oh, we'll be there, and you'll regret taking him Marie! You hear me!"
Lee grins at Eddy, and says, "You have 5 minutes. Or... I think Marie can have all the Double D she needs..."
That sounds very... unsettling.
Chris then says, "What the hell... I can't even believe you just said that, like... WOOOOW."
And the sisters and Double D go to the pit, for... reasons that aren't very clear. Chris turns to Eddy and says,
"WHAT IN HELL'S NAME IS THE PIT!? EXPLAIN, NOW!"
Eddy simply says, "Relax! It's just a fighting place! It's where Double D fought Jimmy one time, and he lost! It was one of the most hilarious things ever!" He says before laughing.
"Don't do this Chris! The Kankers will make you into a flattened pancake! I've seen it..." Ed said, weirdly serious.
"Ed, I'll be fine. Those 3 hardly seem 'difficult' to deal with."
Kevin joins in on the conversation and says, "Chris, man... you've no idea what you've gotten into."
"Oh hey Kevin, what's up? I assume you and everyone else saw what occurred?"
"Hi there dude, I'm Nazz. What's your name?"
"Wow. Surprised there's another person I haven't met yet. Hello there. Well... I would say we have time to talk, but I gotta save a friend."
Eddy then says, "Chris... they're Kankers!"
"I don't care dude! Look, isn't he your friend too? Yeah? Then we have to get him back! No matter what. One thing you should know about me is, well... I don't ever leave a friend behind. This applies to Double D, as it does all of you. So, we are going to save him!" Chris said, lifting his fist in the air.
Inside Chris's mind though... he thought that what he said sounded more cool in his head, not out loud.
"Marie... I'll kill you if this backfires." Chris says in his mind.
Eddy, deciding to assist Chris in... some way, says, "Gentlemen and lady, let's go!"
And so... everyone decides to go to the Pit, including Jonny and Plank, who came with Rolf, Kevin and Nazz. The group of 8 had no idea what the heck this whole thing could lead to, but once thing is for sure... there's no rest for the wicked right now. Either way, Chris still has tricks up his sleeve, and he's gonna need a lot more too, if he is to get Double D from Marie. Then again, he was kinda mixed as to if Marie is still acting, or if this was Marie's "lustful" side coming in again.
Speaking of Marie and the whole act...
"Whatcha plan to do with him Marie?" Lee asked.
Marie grins at Double D, who leans up against a tree, before she says, "I think I'll have some alone time with him. You two, get ready for the rest of them!"
May and Lee proceed to do so, and Double D actually begins to worry if Marie is still "acting", per se, or if she's gone back to that lustful side. Deja vu?
"Marie?"
Marie laughs a bit, before saying, "I'm just playing with ya Eddward! I'll just do this."
It's just a long kiss, and although Double D isn't in the best of circumstances, he certainly did enjoy it. Heck, he entered a small euphoria, and pulled his girlfriend closer, and decided to enjoy the short, yet sweet moment. Marie's mind raced with several thoughts. She couldn't believe still that she and Double D became a thing, especially considering the circumstances. They both basically have the same thoughts, just in different ways for thinking, if that makes any sense. Regardless, they stop after 30 or so seconds, and Marie's proceeds to say,
"Let's just keep up the act until we can get them away from here. Ok?"
Double D shake his head as to say yes. And so, the sisters and Double D essentially just wait, but the group of 8 might wanna hurry, as Lee could get impatient.
"They here yet?" Lee says.
"Not yet Lee." May responds.
"Ahem."
Eddy says that appearing into the view, and entering the the Pit circle. Everyone else also comes in, but before anyone gets a chance to say... anything, Lee shouts,
"So, who wants to be first to save Double D here?"
Ed says, "What does that mean guys?"
"It's basically a fight proposal. This is not gonna be fun..." Chris says.
Kevin spoke to the boys, saying, "I'm sorry dudes, but I value myself, and I ain't going near them. One of you has to do it."
"What? Argh, fine. What about you Rolf?"
"Chris boy! Clearly you have not heard about the stories of the blood-haired girl and her brethren..." Rolf said, in a panic-like tone.
"I have. I don't care, all we are here for is Double D. Nothing more."
"But what's the plan Mr. Macho? They'll tear us apart!" Eddy responded.
Chris came up with a basic idea, but he wasn't sure it was going to be the best of ideas, however he didn't exactly have time to think much, as he hears Lee shout,
"Marie, you seem to want to take Double D to the trailer huh?"
"DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT! WE ARE COMING! JUST... one second!" Chris yelled out.
"Good lord... alright lads. Kevin, you can take the rest of your crew and just watch I guess, since you don't wanna risk any beat downs from those 3. If you change your mind, feel free to join, it's your choice. Eddy and Ed, you two have to be the first to... I guess fight the Kankers, because I'm going to make some things that will help out in case you don't succeed."
Chris pulls out a bag from his pocket, and says,
"This contains ingredients for certain things that can help us, but I'll need time to make them. Trust me, these can mean the difference between victory and defeat."
"But Chris, my mom says I can't fight girls!" Ed yells out.
Chris decided to pull a trick on Ed's mind that isn't exactly hard to do.
"Psst. Ed. You hear that...?"
"No...? Who is it!? Aliens?!" Ed asks.
"It's a voice, speaking to you... I can hear it saying something like 'if you are to fight, you get all the gravy, comics, horror movie-"
"COUNT ME IN!" Ed says.
"That was easy. Anyways, Eddy, you ready?"
Eddy reluctantly accepts this, before he does so though, he tells Chris,
"If this backfires, you are gonna owe us big time!"
"Alright sure. Get out there, hurry! They're getting impatient..."
And so, Eddy and Ed go out into the pit, and Lee proceeds to say,
"Ahh... my little man wants to go first?"
"Yeah! Bring it!" Eddy said, trying to sound intimating. Secretly though, he didn't exactly want to do this, because the last time that he "won" per say against the Kankers was when he yelled at them to leave Double D alone one time.
"Oh man, he's gonna get thrashed!" Kevin says, chuckling a bit.
Lee yells out, "Alright, here's how it'll work! Two rounds, and you lose if you don't get up after 10 seconds. May, you'll be counting down for whoever is down. If you win, you get Double D back. If you lose twice, then I think Marie will have more fun with her Double D. Unless you have another person who wants to try, like Big Ed there."
Eddy says, "Deal."
And so, they get into position for a fight, and May yells out,
"Go!"
Eddy tries to get the first move, but Lee grabs him, and...
"Oh jeez... AHH!"
Eddy essentially just gets twirled in the air, launched up in the air, and he is launched up until Lee moves out of the way and he hits the ground pretty hard. Eddy refuses to give up that easy, as he charges into Lee, which DOES ends up hitting her, but she gets him into a headlock, before lifting him up, and SLAM! Onto the ground. Eddy is kinda wanting to quit, but he decided to try one more thing. Since this wasn't against the rules, he tried to throw a rock at her leg, which surprisingly ends up hitting. He then throws a hit at the FACE, and he ALSO lands this hit! This shocks everyone, but Eddy doesn't exactly have much time to react, as he then gets grabbed pretty hard, and Lee essentially hugs him... really hard, to the point where Eddy let's out a scream,
"AHHHH!!!!!"
"I love you too, hehehe." Lee says, kissing him, as to add insult to injury. Eddy at this point is WAY too wasted, and not in the way you're thinking of. Eddy tried to get up, but his body didn't really want to assist with that. May starts to countdown...
"10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5..."
"Come on..." Eddy thinks, but ultimately he fails to get up. And...
"...3, 2, 1! Lee wins!"
Back at the crowd area, where everyone was sitting down, they all had different reactions to what just occurred.
Kevin says, "Dude! He looks completely beat up! Eddy! You still there with us man!"
Rolf says, "Loud-mouth Ed boy is to be sacrificed to appease the Blood-haired Kanker girl!"
"Rolf, calm down, that's unlikely what's gonna happen. Also, that kiss at the end... that was just disturbing dude..." Nazz said, slightly disturbed.
Jonny then says, "What's that Plank? Chris? The new kid? Find him? Alright buddy..."
Jonny gets up and decides to talk to Chris, who was almost done with making his extra tricks.
"Hiya Chris!"
"Oh hey. What do you want Jonny? I'm busy making some stuff for when I decide to go up."
"Did you see what happened to Eddy? Holy moly!"
"Yeah... Lee is not gonna be liking her life when I'm ready to deal with her, I SWEAR. Still... what do you need man?"
"Plank wants to give you an idea!"
"You mean... your wood friend?" Chris said, dumbfounded.
"Yeah!"
Chris kinda needed some comedic relief, so he said,
"This is gonna be good. Alright, what's your advice?"
While that's going on, Eddy well... lost, and Lee says,
"Up for round 2 little man?"
Eddy gets up finally, but he's not nearly in the best of positions compared to the first round. He however, says,
"Shut it... I'm ready for you Kanker!"
Eddy was hoping that whatever Chris was doing to prepare himself, ended up in them getting Double D back, because this is all gonna be for nothing if they don't win in the end. Lee then says,
"Okay shrimp. May!"
"Round 2! Go!"
Aw crap, here we go again. Eddy didn't exactly think as to what he was gonna to do. So he just, runs towards Lee, and Lee trips him, and picks him up and does the accordion trick she did before. However this time, she throws him up after just a few notes, and KICKS Eddy to a tree, slamming very forcefully onto it. Lee then picks himself and throws him onto the ground, and she THROWS HERSELF onto Eddy, pretty much in an attempt to crush him. Eddy feels like he can barely feel himself, but he then says, weakly...
"Why... you little..."
He manages to get up and run into Lee, which does work, to Eddy's credit, and to more of his credit, he manages to slam her into the wall, and to finish his combo, he gets a hit to her face! But Lee only chuckles before grabbing him, and then knees him in the chin, and then hits her head onto his, which does hurt Lee a bit, but she isn't exactly hurting as much as Eddy is right now. Eddy at this point is nearly finished, but Lee, yet again in pity towards him, simply kisses him for 10 seconds, and drops him to the ground.
May starts to countdown again, "10, 9, 8, 7, 6..."
Eddy doesn't bother with the countdown, and says, "I'm out!"
"Okay then. Lee wins the 2 rounds!"
You would normally hear cheering or clapping, but well... yeah that didn't happen.
"Hey Eddy! I love you too!" Lee yells out.
"Agh!"
Eddy then proceeds to find Chris, who is just now finishing up his conversation with Jonny,
"Alright... if you and Plank insist."
"Good luck out there!" Jonny says, before leaving.
"Holy cow Eddy! You look like a bruised up banana!"
"Enough already! Chris, you better be ready, because you'll regret making me go-"
"Relax you dingus. I am. Ed, you don't need to go. I'll handle this nonsense. Oh yeah, Eddy, patch yourself up dude."
Chris throws a little aid kit for Eddy, which Chris can only hope Eddy knows how to use the supplies in there. Either way, it's now his turn to get out there.
Meanwhile...
"Oh my lord! Eddy!"
Marie tells Double D, "Yeah... Lee probably should've gone easier on him... poor Eddy!"
Double D gets slightly annoyed at the way Marie sounded, as she sounded more like she was enjoying this.
"You can't possibly be rejoicing in this senseless amount of violence! This is beyond inhuman!"
"You've got a point... but I think we need to find a way to get you back to your friends. Even if I don't really want to." Marie responds, grinning a bit.
"I'm messing with you. But who's gonna go next?"
Back to Lee...
"So, anyone else up? Or Marie can take Double D now?"
"No. I will go." Chris said.
"Ah... so, finally ready to see face-to-face, eh?"
"Shut up moron. Let's get this started."
Lee laughs a bit before saying, "You're gonna regret that. May!"
May says, "Round 1! Go!"
To Lee's surprise, Chris starts with a REALLY fast flying kick, that sends Lee flying, until she gets her grip back onto the ground. Lee then runs towards him, but he simply moves out of the way, and swipes his leg to trip her, and he pushes her away, though not very hard. The crowd's reaction though is another story.
"Whoa! Look at those maneuvers! This looks like it's gonna be a good one!" Kevin said.
"The Chris boy has awoken the beast!" Rolf said.
"How does he even do that...?" Nazz asked.
Back to the little battle, Lee is progressively getting more angry, as Chris kept on successfully getting more blows than she expected. She most likely got too cocky after her fight with Eddy. Regardless, Lee was pushing her limits a bit, as she kept trying to hit, but Chris seemed to always have a counter. But her defeat came when an uppercut and a direct hit to the face, and shortly after another flying kick towards the stomach. To ensure the win, so to say, Chris delivers a series of quick punches to the stomach area, and so, Lee goes down.
"Had enough yet?"
May starts to countdown, "10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1... Chris wins Round 1!"
The crowd actually ends up cheering this time. Funny, isn't it?
"Alright then... don't think you have it easy though!" Lee says.
And so, May proceeds to say, "Round 2! Go!"
Chris actually does a different start. He throws a smoke bomb to make himself disappear. But where? Lee doesn't even see him in her line of sight. And a different start, it is, as Chris start with a flying kick to the back, not the front. Lee is already starting to get annoyed, so she gets back up to actually start throwing punches, in which he lands two, but they are only effective a bit. Chris slams her, and starts to do simple dirty combat, hitting her in the face, and saying,
"LEAVE, MY, FRIENDS, ALONE!"
Lee manages to get him off, and kicks him away, but he quickly recovers. He does another smoke bomb trick, but this time, it throws Lee off, because she was expecting another blow at the back, but Chris just striked at the front with several quick punches. Of course, this doesn't occur without a reaction. Lee grabs his throat, but Chris simply kicks her away. At this point, Chris says,
"This has gone on for enough! This ends, NOW!"
Chris proceeds to throw another bomb, but it isn't one of smoke. It's a STUN. And he manages to hit Lee, and proceeds to hit her directly, but not with his fists, but with secret nunchucks he had in backup. Chris simply performs some normal blows, before hitting a REALLY hard blow, then throwing the chucks for 2 more hits, and for the last blow, he does a flying kick, by first running towards her, and launching himself for a hard hitting kick. That does not sound like something you can easily recover from. Because it's not. Anyways, that occurred, and the crowd is shocked at what they just witnessed.
May begins the countdown again, "10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1... and Chris wins the second round!"
"I didn't exactly want to do that. But I had to." Chris says.
Eddy runs in and says, "Holy cow! Chris, that was incredible! How did you learn all of that?!"
"Not right now. I'll tell you later. But I guess now Double D comes back to us! Those were the rules!"
Marie comes out, and says, "Have him! Whatever..."
Marie winks at Double D for a quick second, and she throws him towards the boys. Double D gets up and says,
"CHRIS!? What have you done? You realize the amount of pain you've inflicted onto Lee? I haven't seen this much pain since that one time i accidentally dropped a heavy book on her foot! I demand that-"
"Please stop. And I don't exactly do that stuff for fun. I'll explain later. For now, I guess we're in the clear. She's not getting up from that."
"Not yet! Lee, this is where you will never bother us again! DO YOU HEAR ME?!" Eddy says.
"Whoa, Eddy! Stop!" Chris says.
"No! MOVE IT OR LOSE IT!"
"Eddy, realize what you're doing! You're clearly under some influence of rage or something! Stop it!"
"I SAID NO! LEE, THIS IS WHERE YOU WILL BE-"
"Eddy, if you not gonna fight this rage, I'll beat it out of you. One round May!"
"Okay... Round 1! Go!"
"WAIT, WHA-"
Chris simply strikes at Eddy, but he kept in mind to go easier than normal, as the point wasn't to beat him to a pulp, it was just to get out his rage for Lee, as this "act", if it even was one at this point, had gone on for too long. Anyways, save you some time, Eddy stood no chance, as he either tried to do hits that were way too predictable for Chris, or got hit hard by Chris. Secretly though, Chris held back quite a bit, so that Eddy wouldn't need more aid. This fight was less than 20 seconds, as Eddy, after a hit to the face, says,
"Okay okay! I stop!"
"Chris wins that Round!" May yells.
"You cooled down now?"
"Yeah... I'm fine." Eddy says.
Double D says, "Chris! You must fix all the damage that has occurred here! This is so inhuman!"
"How exactly am I supposed to do that? Hmm...?"
Double D was pretty much in a checkmate position right there. Not very smooth, are ya?
"We're done here. Let's go back home. We have a LOT to talk about, and resolve. Oh, and answer too." Chris responded.
Kevin catches up to the boys and says, "Can we join with? Also, Chris, that was rad!"
"Enough already. I got it. It was cool. Ahahahaha. Sure, come join us."
And so, the group of 9 had all decided to join up and go to Double D's house, because oh boy they had stories, discussions, and many other things for some good old conversation.
Oh yeah... can't forget the Kankers.
Lee recovered shortly after her sisters helped her get back to the trailer, where she says,
"That... is gonna cost them..."
Marie got lucky though, as her relationship with Double D was luckily only known to Ed, Eddy and Chris still, and her sisters had no idea of it yet. Which was good for her, as the moment that Lee discovers the relationship... Marie might be stuck. May simply says,
"Lee, but you saw what happened out there! He just-"
"SHUT. IT." Lee says.
"Just rest for a bit, and watch TV. I'll make something..." Marie says.
The two sisters, Marie and May, were stuck. The former had her secret relationship, and the latter was wondering if Chris would even hold his promise to help her out with Ed. When everything collides... it will get messy.
What the heck is gonna happen now? Hmm...
