(Play Ed, Edd n Eddy BGM #2)

It's one fine weekend in suburban area called the cul-de-sac in Peach Creek. The sky is blue, the birds are flying, a girl in her underwear can be seen in a win... pardon me... (SLAP!). Anyway, we focus the story to a young man, 18-years of age leaving his home. He is tall with a slim yet fit body, he had a blue shaggy hair and blue colored deadfish eyes, he wears a black t-shirt with red sleeves underneath, black pants and white tennis shoes. This is Marcus McGee also known as Marcus the Kane.

This four boys are his best friends when he mysteriously arrived in Peach Creek six years ago.

"Sup guys!" Marcus greeted with a grin.

"Salutations Marcus!" Double D greeted back, "I would say it would be a fine day if we weren't in this predicament." he stated.

Marcus nodded in annoyance. Two months ago, he along with his friends discovered their awesome abilities during the time they were messing around the dump site. Marcus gain the ability to wield gasoline which can cause massive explosion while Eddy has the ability to produce fire, Double D gain the ability and knowledge of alchemy, Ed's ability is to use electricity and Rolf's ability is transforming his body like a rock.

The five boys would use their abilities for pranks but all fun must come to an end when a man discovered their abilities and asked their parents to send them to his camp to train their abilities which their parents comply much to Eddy's dismay.

"This is a bummer! Why do we have to go to camp?" Eddy grumbled in annoyance, "I blame our parents for this." he growled.

"Eddy! Our parents decided to sent us to camp for our own good." Double D scolded.

"How is going to camp good!?" Eddy snapped.

"Yeah!" Marcus said in agreement.

"Think of it you two, it's our chance to fully learn the capabilities of our powers and as well accept this as a punishment for all the misdeeds we did." Double D explained.

"Rolf agrees with sock wearing Ed-boy, we must all face this punishment like a man!" Rolf said in agreement towards the brainiac.

"I'm not in my happy place." Ed whimpered.

"Don't worry, I bet their are cool things to do in camp that we might enjoy besides... what's the worst that could happen." Marcus reassured with a casual smile.

Suddenly a camouflage bus pulled over in front of them, then the roof suddenly opened with a large muscular arm coming out before grabbing the five boys making them scream in fright as they got pulled inside the bus. Seconds later, the door open with the same arm comes out grabbing their bags before pulling it in.

"YOU JUST HAVE TO OPEN YOUR BIG MOUTH!" Eddy shouted as he began to choke Marcus.

"Ngok! Ngok! Ngok!" was Marcus' reply.

"ENOUGH ROUGHHOUSING!" a voice boomed at them.

The five boys slowly looks up to see Major Richard Stronghold looking down on them, "MY APOLOGIES FOR GRABBING YOU BOYS WITHOUT CONSENT BUT WE MUST MAKE HASTE! CAUSE I, MAJOR STRONGHOLD WILL BE THE ONES TRAINING THE FIVE OF YOU HOW TO USE YOUR GIFTS PROPERLY!" the Major explained loudly.

"And my life shine before my eyes." Eddy whimpered.

"E-excuse me Major, but what do you mean by Gifts?" Double D asked curiously.

"Like a birthday gift." Ed chimed in.

Then the Major punches Ed on the head hard, "FOOL! SINCE YOU ALL DON'T ABOUT WHAT A GIFT IS, THEN I SHALL PROCEED TO EXPLAIN EVERYTHING FROM THE START!" he yelled.

Then the major proceeds on explaining everything from the two Gods to formation of the Heroes Coalition.

"So that's what our abilities are, they're called Gifts." Marcus muttered.

"And those who possessed Gifts are called Blessed, very fascinating!" Double D said.

"Kinda ironic that we are called Blessed when those two stupid Gods never gave it to us." Eddy sgrumbled.

"ANYWAY, I AM A BLESSED JUST LIKE YOU BOYS BUT UNLIKE YOU, I USED MY ABILITIES IN DOING GOOD RATHER USING IT FOR USELESS PRANKS. AFTER I HAVE MET LOUIE, I WAS GIVEN WITH THE RESPONSIBILITY TO HELP THE BLESSED USE THEIR POWERS FOR GOOD! I WILL DO MY BEST TO MAKE SURE THE FIVE OF YOU BECOME STRONG AND RESPONSIBLE! I AM TURNING YOU BOYS INTO HEROES!" the major explained loudly.

"Umm... sir. Can I ask you a question, aside from training... are you perhaps recruiting us as well?" Double D asked.

"YOUR RIGHT! ALL OF THOSE WHO TRAINED FROM CAMP WOULD BECOME MEMBERS OF THE HEROES COALITION!" the major answered, "SO WHAT DO YOU BOYS THINK?" he asked.

"This is so cool! My long dreams of becoming a hero is finally coming true!" Ed cheered.

"Rolf's confused! But the son of shepherd would appreciate joining this cult you call Heroes Coalition." Rolf stated in determination.

"While I one not for violence however I solemnly agreed to take part of this endeavor." Double D admitted.

"Well... as long as don't get bored, then I'm in." Eddy said with a blank look.

Marcus let's out a smirk, "Fuck! If the guys are in to shit, then so am I." he replied.

The major smiled at their answers, "GOOD! I CAN SEE A BRIGHT FUTURE WITH THE FIVE OF YOU! NOW ONWARDS TO THE TRAINING CENTER!" he yelled as the bus sped up to its destination.

bzzzttt...

As the bus arrives at it's the destination. The boys along with Major Stronghold got off the bus, the boys slacked jaw as they were greeted by an amazing sight. In front of them was a large facility that almost resembles a castle.

(Play Star Wars The Throne Room Theme)

"That's the camp?!" Marcus exclaimed indecorously.

"HAHAHA! WHAT? DID YOU BOYS EXPECT THAT CAMP IS ALL ABOUT TENTS AND BARRACKS? WRONG! THE TRAINING CAMP IS FAR DIFFERENT FROM THE USUAL CAMPS YOU SEE!" Major Stronghold explained loudly.

"I take everything back... this place is awesome!" Eddy admitted with glee.

The boys and Major Stronghold then enters the huge building and went straight forward to the receptionist's desk. Behind the desk is a young woman, she a slim body and average height. She has a blonde hair tied in a bun and has blue eyes, she wears a blue uniform jacket, skirt, black tights and black high heel shoes. This is Penelope von Steiner.

Heroes Coalitions Secretary

Penelope von Steiner

"Ah! Major Stronghold, I'm glad your back." Penelope greeted, "Who might this boys be?" she asked referring to the boys.

"THIS BOYS ARE THE NEW RECRUITS PENELOPE! I WANT YOU TO CALL FOR A GUIDE AND HAVE THIS BOYS BE SHOWN AROUND THE PLACE." Major Stronghold replied.

"Absolutely." Penelope complied grabbing a phone.

"I WANT YOU BOYS TO TAKE A LOOK AROUND THE FACILITY TODAY AND MAKE YOURSELVES COMFORTABLE! YOUR TRAINING WILL START TOMORROW." Major Stronghold told them.

"Thank you, Major." Double D replied with a smile.

The Major then left the entrance hall as Penelope spoke, "You boys may wanna take a seat on the couch over there and wait for your guide to arrive." she said.

"Thank you Miss Penelope." Double D said as he and the boys went towards the couch.

Penelope giggles, "Such a polite young man." she commented.

As everyone sat on the couch which surprisingly fits for the five of them, "This camp turns out a lot better than I expected." Eddy commented.

"Yeah. I don't think I can survive sleeping in a tent." Marcus muttered.

"Don't relax yet gentlemen, training starts tomorrow, I don't think it'll be that easy... well for the most of us." Double D reminded.

"Rolf can't wait and show the people in this castle what the son of shepherd is made of." Rolf said in determination.

"Hero! Hero! I'm going to be a hero!" Ed chanted over and over again.

"We get it Ed! So stop chanting!" Eddy snapped.

"Excuse me." a gentle voice said as the boys turns to see Yoshika Miyafuji approaching them, "My name is Yoshika Miyafuji and I'll be your guide in touring the Training Camp." she said with a smile.

"Well it's pleasure to meet you Miss Yoshika, my name is Eddward with two Ds which is why everybody calls me Double D and right behind me are my best friends, Eddy, Ed, Rolf and Marcus." Double D introduced himself and everyone.

"Sup!" Marcus greeted with a devious smirk.

"Greetings! She who will guide us." Rolf greeted.

"Hey." Eddy greeted with a blank look.

"Hello! My name is Ed!" Ed greeted cheerfully.

Yoshika giggled, "Shall we start the tour?" she asked.

"Certainly." Double D replied in agreement.

The boys along with Yoshika left the entrance hall and made their way in a very spacious room filled with many gym equipment along with a few people inside.

(Play NXT Theme - Roar of the Crowd)

"The Training Camp is known for it's world-class strength and conditioning program. The camp trains around 40 to 60 trainees at any one time. The trainees are usually Blesseds but it also trains people who have a variety of experience levels, from beginners to experienced fighters across different worlds and universe." Yoshika explained.

"Nice~" Marcus cooed with a raised eyebrow.

"Aside from fighters, the camp also trains people in different departments such as culinary and medicine." Yoshika added.

"My! That is certainly a marvelous!" Double D said in awe.

"So do the big armed Major trains everyone hear by himself?" Rolf asked.

"Not at all. There are other trainers in camp that helps train people especially those with different expertise." Yoshika replied.

"Like a person who fight using a sword or those who uses firearms." Double D guessed.

"Correct Edd-san." Yoshika replied.

"So what's your specialty? Are you a Blessed too?" Eddy asked.

Yoshika shook her head, "No. But I'm actually a witch." she answered.

"Really? Rolf thinks you don't look like one." Rolf pointed out.

Yoshika giggled, "Actually I am a witch but to be accurate, I'm known as a Strike Witch. In my world, I'm a child soldier that uses magic to fight an alien called Neurois." she explained.

"Aliens? Cool!" Ed cheered.

Yoshika frowned, "No it's not Ed-san. The Neurois has been causing havoc in my world ever since it mysteriously appeared. Many lives and homes are lost because of that." she explained rather solemnly.

Upon seeing her sad face, the boys, Marcus and Eddy included, can't help but feel sorry for the girl.

Rolf then whacks the back of Ed's head, "Shame on you dimwitted Ed-boy! You dare praise such beings that destroys homes of others! Apologies at once or you shall suffer the three shoe besting from Rolf!" he chastised with a threat.

Ed looks down in shame, "I'm sorry." he apologized.

"It's okay... you didn't know." Yoshika reassured.

Marcus puts a hand on her shoulder, "Don't worry. I know your world is going on a lot right now but I'm pretty sure that everything will be all right. Heck, once my training is done, I will go there and help you out in fighting those Neurois." he stated.

"Really?" Yoshika asked.

Marcus nodded, "I'm gonna show those fucking Neurois who's the boss here.'' he claimed.

"Wow! Big talk to a guy who got chase by a chicken." Eddy snarked.

"That's just one time Eddy! One time!" Marcus shouted at his adopted brother..

Yoshika giggled as Double D spoke, "Well then... care to introduce us to other trainees." he suggested.

"Okay." Yoshika said looking around, "Over there!" she claimed.

To their left is a group of three boys, which are Danny Fenton, Jake Long and Randy Cunnigham working on different gym equipment.

"Jake-san! Randy-san! Danny-san!" Yoshika called out earning their attentions, "The new recruits are here, I like you to meet them." she said.

"That's so bruise! Hey bros, the names Randy Cunningham." Randy introduced himself.

"I'm Jake Long." Jake followed.

"I'm Danny Fenton." Danny introduced himself last.

"It's nice to meet you gentlemen." Double D greeted back.

"So how's your time in the camp?" Danny asked.

"Miss Yoshika is still showing us around but I must say the camp had already catch my interest." Double D replied in keen interest.

"Speaking of that... how hard is the training here?" Eddy asked.

"Oh boy... you guys better prepare yourself, the training sessions are a lot harder than it looks." Jake replied.

"Even with our experience in fighting, the training here is no easy task." Randy added.

"But the results is worth it, you'll get stronger if you trained hard." Danny reassured.

"Will take that advice to heart." Marcus replied.

After chatting with the three boys, Yoshika and the cul-de-sac boys continued their tour in the whole camp. After the tour ended, Yoshika then brought the boys in a large complex known as the Dormitory Village, this is where most trainees, heroes, student from Vanguard Academy and staff members stays.

(Play Sister Princess Theme - Reminiscence)

The group then enters one dorm building, "And this is where the tour ends, in front of you are the rooms that you'll be using during your time here." Yoshika stated.

"Oh thank God! We're not sleeping in any barracks." Marcus exclaimed in relief.

Yoshika giggled, "As for room arrangement, Penelope-san has arranged Ed-san, Eddward-san and Rolf-san in room 34 while Eddy-san and Marcus-san will be in room 45 along with another person." she stated.

"Well... that's good, though it would be better if the two brothers are in a separate rooms." Double D suggested.

"What's that supposed to mean Sockhead?" Eddy asked with a raised eyebrow.

"You know what I mean Eddy." Double D replied with a stern look.

"Wait! Brothers? You two are brothers?" Yoshika exclaimed in surprise.

"Yup! Though I'm actually adopted." Marcus replied with a casual smile.

"Really?" Yoshika asked.

"You see Marcus suddenly appeared in front of Eddy's yard without memories of who he is, and that's when the Mr. and Mrs. McGee decided to adopt him." Double D explained.

"And we were brothers ever since." Eddy smiled.

"Wow... isn't it kinda hard not knowing who you really are?" Yoshika asked in concern.

"Actually no... now don't get me wrong, I do wanna know who I really am but I'm not in hurry to find out plus I'm pretty much content with my life as a part of the McGee family." Marcus explained.

"I guess you're right, well then... I'll see you guys tomorrow. Good night everyone." Yoshika said as she left.

"Well it's best that we head to our rooms to rest before we start our training tomorrow, I'll see you gentlemen tomorrow then." Double D said as he turn around to walk.

"Rolf bids the scamming brothers goodnight ." Rolf following the brainiac.

"Bye guys!" Ed said following the two.

"Night bros!" Marcus replied.

"I think we should find our room." Eddy suggested.

After walking for a few minutes in the dorm's hallway, the two boys found their room.

"Found it!" Eddy declared as he opened the door.

Their room was a lot spacious from the inside, kinda like Eddy's room. There is a triple bunk bed in one corner with a closet right next to it, a couch in the middle with desk and a flat screen TV in front, there is also a bathroom in one corner and speaking of which, a person suddenly came out from it.

The person is none other than Rex Salazar, "Oh hey there! You must be my roommates, I'm Rex Salazar." Rex introduced himself.

"Sup! I'm Marcus McGee but call me Marcus the Kane and this is my brother Eddy Skipper McGee." Marcus introduce themselves.

"Skipper?" Rex snickered.

"Buzz off!" Eddy snapped.

"All right! All right! I'm just joking. So what do you think of the camp so far?" Rex stated.

"We just recently finished touring this place and I had to admit it's really rad!" Eddy commented.

"Our training starts tomorrow and from what we heard, it's going to be tough." Marcus stated.

"Well... I can't deny that it's tough but I think you guys will get through it." Rex reassured.

"Thanks." Marcus replied.

"Anyway... I think we need to unpack our things, so I can get some shut eye." Eddy suggested.

"I'll help you guys." Rex offered.

"Thanks... men, who knew going to camp will be this awesome..." Marcus commented with a smirk, "Being a hero sounds nice. Too bad, I'm not taking it seriously." he thought with a wicked smile.
