Heyo! CillianChamp here, and welcome to the second chapter of this story. I uses the episode Cleaniness Is Next to Edness for the first few minutes of this chapter. This chapter marks the beginning of the Eds' big adventure and I want to give this story a good start. This chapter continue where the first chapter left off and I want to see if you guys can enjoy it.
So thank you so much, guys, I hope you'll enjoy this chapter, and I'll see you at the end of this chapter.
The next morning, Edd is sleeping soundly when a shoe flies in through the window. It bounces around the room and hits him on the head. He gets up and goes to the window. Beneath the window stand his friends.
"Hey! Rip Van Winkle!" Eddy shouted. "Get cracking, will ya? We're late for school! We're starting high school today!"
"An early bird catches the peanut, Double D!" Ed shouted.
"School? I hate the bearer of bad news, gentlemen, but school doesn't start in the next two weeks." Edd said, showing them a calendar where the first day of high school is marked in two weeks.
Eddy jumps up to look at it.
"Two weeks? Ed, you dolt, you woke me up for school two weeks earlier?" Eddy asked, letting go of the calendar and plummets to the ground as he spoke.
"It wasn't my fault, Eddy! My belly told me it was Bottomless Gravy Day in the cafeteria. Bad belly!" Ed said, spanking his belly with a fly swatter. "Bad!"
Eddy grabs the swatter and brings it down on Ed's head repeatedly until Ed is as deep in the ground as he is.
"Your head's bottomless!" Eddy said, angry.
"Bad belly, Eddy!" Ed cried, running away.
"C'mere, you little..." Eddy said, chasing Ed in anger.
"Belly!" Ed cried.
"Lovable oaf. Oh well. Best begin my day, I suppose." Edd said.
Edd walks to his closet. There, he selects various showering materials, including a bathrobe, a shower cap, some soap, and a loofah. The last thing he picks is his Saturday hat. He exits his room happily.
"And last but not least, the shower. Oh, how I adore its sprinkling splendor, its cascading cleansing, its steamy serenade. An imperative step to each and every day." Edd said, smiling.
Edd opens the door and has to clutch to the doorknob to keep himself from falling. Somehow, his bathroom has disappeared.
"MY BATHROOM! Demolished! Dismembered! Disintegrated! A sticky note." Edd said, beginning to read the note. "Dear Eddward, the shower is out of order due to renovations? Have a nice day, love Mother and Father."
Edd looks back at his bathroom.
"Oh, dear!" Edd said.
Outside of Eddy's house, Eddy throws Ed out of his bedroom window.
"Scram, Ed!" Eddy shouted, slamming the window and heads back to bed.
Ed face against the window.
"No lie, Eddy! It wasn't my fault!" Ed said.
"Beat it!" Eddy said.
Eddy tapes a copy of Jiggy Jiggy over Ed's face. Ed smiles.
"Weekend wrecker." Eddy said.
"Of all the inconsiderate!" Edd said, entering Eddy's house. "Without even a word, Mother and Father, in all their wisdom, felt it necessary to renovate our bathroom! I ask you! Do I even exist?"
Just then, Ed opens the door with his shoes.
"Eddy! The belly is evil, the belly is cruel!" Ed shouted.
Eddy throws his alarm clock at Ed, forcing him out.
"Eddy, I know this may be difficult and normally I wouldn't ask this of you, but, may I use your shower?" Edd asked. "I took the liberty of bringing my own toiletries. Mind you, I will require a clean towel, preferably cotton as poly-blends irritate my skin."
Ed is scratching at the door like a dog when it suddenly slides open, and Edd is tossed out.
"Hit the road!" Eddy shouted, Edd lands in some leaves. "Windbag.
Eddy closes the door again.
"Did your belly lie too, Double D?" Ed asked.
Edd dusts himself off.
"Not to be rude, Ed, but I desperately need to find a shower. Oh, messy messy messy." Edd said, walking away.
"Eddy?" Ed asked.
When Eddy goes back the sleep, the girl wakes up in bed. She looks around his bedroom. Then, she sees Eddy sleeping until he wakes up.
"Morning, my name's Eddy. I'm really glad you're feeling alright." Eddy said. "You had me and my friends worried there. I had to save you from falling.
"Thank you very much for saving me. Oh, I'm sorry. My name's Marissa." The girl said, introducing herself as Marissa.
"Marissa, that's a very nice name." Eddy said.
"It means "of the seas" in Latin. Tell me, how long have I've been passed out?" Marissa asked.
"Only for a few hours. We saw you floating down towards us, and we had to save you." Eddy said.
"Oh. And who are your friends?" Marissa asked.
"Ed and Double D. Ed can be stupid but he's a great friend. He loves horror movies. And Double D, he's smart and also a great friend." Eddy said.
"I would love to meet them." Marissa giggled.
"You can. But first, let me take a shower." Eddy said.
While Eddy's taking a shower, Marissa looks at Eddy's magazines and read them.
Edd walks down the street. He trips over a sign and lands in a mud puddle.
"Oh, for heaven's sake..." Edd said. He looks at the sign. "Le Jimmy's Beauty Salon? How fortuitous!"
Edd looks to the salon.
"Jmmy's a young man of upstanding hygienic caliber!" Edd said.
In the salon, Jimmy is working on Jonny.
"Voilà!" Jimmy said.
"I feel weird." Jonny said. He checks the hairstyle in the mirror. "Hmm...WOWZERS! That sure looks snazzy, Jimmy!"
"That's Le Jimmy/ Now sit still, you're ruining my vision of you." Jimmy said.
At the reception desk, Sarah was there.
"Welcome to Le Jimmy's, where we have the comb and you don't. We have duct-tape waxing, a Le Jimmy specialty. Ketchup and mustard manicures, and spaghetti relaxation baths." Sarah said.
"Rock and roll, huh Plank!" Jonny said to Plank, smiling.
"Yes, well, this is all sounds very luxurious, Sarah. But all I require today is a shower." Edd said.
"Is that right?" Sarah asked. She flips through a coloring book. "Le Jimmy's has an opening in three weeks.
"THREE WEEKS! Oh nonononono, I'm afraid you don't understand. I need a shower immediately!" Edd said.
Edd tries to run past the receptionist, but she hauls him back.
"Three weeks, bub. Take it or leave it!" Sarah said.
"Um, okay Sarah, you've, um, certainly made your point, yes indeedy." Edd said. He surreptitiously glues Sarah to the ground. "With that, um, I'll be sure to, cooperate fully? Yes?"
Instead, Edd runs away.
"Showershowershower!" Edd said.
"HEY!" Sarah said. She tries to chase him, but can't, as she is glued.
Jimmy is using hairspray on Jonny.
"Jimmy, I beseech you, I need..." Edd said, being cut off.
The hairspray gets in Edd's mouth, and he coughs.
"...a favor!" Edd said, continuing to speak. "All I need for is a shower! Find it in your heart, lad! At this very moment, there are millions of dead skin cells immeshed under the threads of my robe!"
"Go away." Jimmy said, resumes with the hairspray.
"STOP THAT!" Edd said, yanks the can away. "Please forgive me, I'm not myself.
Edd tosses the can off, and it lands on Sarah's head.
"You hit Sarah in cold blood. DON'T HURT ME!" Jimmy said.
Jimmy turns to run and slams into his cabinet of treatments. The cabinet topples and falls onto Edd and Jonny.
"Is Le Jimmy's a scream or what?" Jonny asked, smiling.
"Jonny, may I uses your shower?" Edd asked.
"Nope!" Jonny said.
"They've ruined my salon, Sarah!" Jimmy said, dumping some water on Sarah, waking her up.
"Look at me! Is a shower too much to ask?" Edd asked.
Sarah growls. She is dragging the concrete with her as she advances on Edd. Jonny luxuriates with Plank in the pool of pasta.
"You're on, buddy! I'll take the dirty kid for a quarter!" Jonny said, smiling.
Edd flies out of the house and hits a dumpster.
A miserable Edd is walking in the lane. He stops upon hearing a tune.
"Rolf! Finally who will understand my plight!" Edd said.
Edd approaches Rolf.
"Someone who can sympathize with the soiled suffering I've endured!" Edd said.
Edd tries to get Rolf's attention.
"Um, Rolf? Excuse me? A moment of your time? Can I trouble you for the use of your shower!? So I can start my day on the right foot?" Edd asked.
Edd gingerly steps into the soil Rolf is tilling.
"ROLF!" Edd said. His robe gets caught in the machine. "Oh dear. Rolf, stop!"
Edd shoots off and lands in a bunch of black glop. Rolf pulls some potatoes out of his ears and examines them.
"Aah, too early, yes? The fermenting has yet to begin." Rolf said.
Rolf puts the potatoes back in.
Edd is drowning in the glop which is behind three cows. It is pretty obvious what the glop is. Edd makes his way to the lane and falls there.
"The milk of human kindness has abandoned me!" Edd cried and gone insane. "Shower shower shower. Shower shower shower. Shower shower shower. Shower shower shower."
Edd has worked his way down the land. The word "Shower" is written in filth along the fence boards.
"Shower shower shower. Shower shower shower. Shower shower shower. Shower shower shower!" Edd said.
Edd's eye twitches, and his image of himself shatters.
A crazed Edd picks up a trash can and dumps the refuge over him. He then proceeds to wallow in it.
"Greetings, microorganisms." Edd said, completely disguisted and horrified. "Hop aboard! Welcome, bacteria! Oh, happy day!"
Edd places a fish's head over his head.
"Eddward!" A voice said.
Edd turns and faces a hallucination of himself; this hallucination is clean.
"What are you doing?" Hallucination asked.
"Dive in, oh vision of my former self! There is more than enough filth to go around." Edd said.
"I'll have nothing to do with your self-degradation, thank you, as I stand for cleanliness. Moral fiber. And all that is decent and neatly folded." Hallucination said.
Edd pours rotten milk into his underwear.
"Zip-a-dee-doo-dah." Edd said.
"Stop it, stop it, stop it!" Get a grip on yourself, mister!" Hallucination said, upset. The head slides down Edd's body. "That's disgusting!
Edd leans in.
"May I use your shower?" Edd asked. His rotten breath wafts up to the hallucination.
"Good lord! Stinky, stinky, stinky!" Hallucination said, disappearing.
"No shower for me!" Edd said.
Nazz hauls a trashcan to the curb. Edd runs down the street and grabs the bag.
"For me? You shouldn't have." Edd said.
Edd rips the bag open and dumps the waste out on his head.
"Double D? Is that you?" Nazz asked, pinching her nose.
"No. Not really." Edd said.
"No offense dude, but you could really use a shower. Let's get you a washcloth, okay?" Nazz said.
Nazz leads Edd up her driveway into her house.
"A sh...shower?" Edd asked, awestruck.
Inside, Edd walks on laid-out newspaper that lead to her bathroom.
"The bathroom's through here. See?" Nazz said.
In front of Edd lies a bathroom so clean, sleek, and shiny that even his former self could find no fault within.
"A radiant angel has smiled down upon me!" Edd said, approaching the shower.
"Whatever." Nazz said.
Nazz pulls the curtains apart, and Edd's eyes bulge.
"Here you go. And don't forget to wash behind your ears." Nazz said, leaving the bathroom.
Edd looks at the shower. Strung up along it are various feminine undergarments. Edd knows that he cannot shower here, even though it is a perfect bathroom otherwise. This, for him, is utter torture.
Eddy walks out of his shower, ready to start the day.
"Oh yeah, baby, nothing like a shower to get you ready for a new day." Eddy said, until he sees something. "What the..."
Eddy goes over to the window and lifts the magazine. Outside, Ed is filling a tub with water from a hose.
"Look what I found on Nazz's lawn, Eddy!" Ed said, gestures to the dirt pile formerly known as Edd. "It looks a lot like Double D.
Eddy sniggers and runs outside. He is about to mock when the scent reaches his nostrils.
"Pee-yew! You reek, sockhead." Eddy said.
"He smells worser than the sandwich under my bed, Eddy!" Ed said. He proceeds to eat some gunk off his dirty friend.
"You got that right, Lumpy! Or like your three-month-old gym socks." Eddy said.
Ed has his nose pinched.
"Or like my head on a rainy day, huh, Eddy?" Ed said.
"Ha ha, very funny. Can we get on with this, please?" Edd asked, annoyed.
Ed picks up Edd and drops him into the tub. The water almost immediately turns into sludge.
"Let's get that custard out of your belly button, mister!" Ed said, pulling out a grater.
Edd shivers as Ed approaches.
"Wait, Ed. Lemme go get a camera!" Eddy said, laughing..
Marissa walks out a bit where she watches Ed and Eddy washing Edd. She starts laughing a bit.
"You okay?" Eddy asked, smiling.
"Yeah. This is so funny." Marissa laughing.
Edd looks at Marissa in shocked.
"Good lord, you're awake." Edd said.
"Good lord, you're awake." Edd said in shocked.
"Yes. My name is Marissa." Marissa introduced herself to them. "I would like to thank you boys for saving me."
"It's my pleasure, Marissa." Edd said before he introduces himself. "My name is Edd, but with two Ds."
"And I'm Ed." Ed introduces himself.
"Nice to meet you too." Marissa said as she smiles. "So, you guys live around here?"
"Yeah, the Cul-de-Sac is our home." Eddy said, smiling. "We have some great memories."
"That's right." Edd said, smiling. "Hey, Eddy, can we continue our game from last night?"
"Oh, right. Our game, let's do it. It's your turn." Eddy said, smiling.
"What game?" Marissa asked.
"Oh, I've came up with a game involved with our great memories." Eddy said, smiling.
Edd closed his eyes and remember something.
"Okay, I have one." Edd said. "Remember that time you tell Sarah and Jimmy where babies come from?"
"Oh yeah! I remember!" Eddy said, remembering smiling.
"Ooh, ooh! I remember that day!" Ed said, smiling. "That's easy. Babies come from storks! They fly through the night, carrying bundles of joy in their beaks that..."
Eddy shuts Ed up by grabbing his head and tears it off. He tosses it away. Ed's body follows it.
"That's not where babies come from. It's more complicated than that." Edd said.
"Really?" Ed asked, trying to get his head.
"Babies don't come from storks. You know how I was born, don't you?" Edd asked.
"Uh, no. Not really." Ed said.
"Well then, I will tell you. Babies come out of their mother's wombs. That's how they're born, and that's where they come from." Edd said to Ed.
"Geez, Double D. You know all that?" Eddy asked.
"Yes, Eddy. My parents told me so." Edd said.
"At least my one is better. Let's hang out in my room." Eddy said.
"Okay." Marissa asked
"As soon as we're done cleaning Double D." Eddy said.
"Oh? What happened?" Marissa asked.
"He got himself dirty looking for a place to shower." Eddy said to Marissa.
"Oh. I see. Well, why don't you just let him borrow your shower?" Marissa asked.
"That is a good point. But, it's too late, but we can use the hose." Eddy said, smiling.
Ed and Marissa gasps the idea.
"Oooo, this is a good idea!" Marissa said smiling. "Okay, I'll go get the hose. Ed, stay back from Double D."
"Okay." Ed said smiling.
Marissa grabbed the hose and points at Edd.
"Okay, on the count of three, I'll fire, boys. Three, two, one, go!" Marissa shouted.
Marissa sprays the hose at Edd, removing the dirt from him. He is now wet and the shower cap fell off him. Ed and Eddy are shocked to see them.
"My eyes! They're burning!" Eddy shouted, covering his eyes.
"You stop that!" Edd said to Eddy.
"Does it hurt, Double D?" Ed asked.
"Oh shush!" Edd said, grabbing his wet shower cap. "Now, I'm gonna go home and get dress, I'll be back in the few."
Edd leaves Eddy's house and start heading back to his house in wet clothes. Marissa turns to Eddy.
"What's your thinking about where babies comes from?" Marissa asked.
"I might as well tell you." Eddy said to Marissa.
Marissa smiles at the idea and wonders what his version is.
Edd arrived home in time before his parents and sees his clean clothes on the floor. He picked them up and grabbed a towel. He quickly rushed into his room, dry himself up and get changed into his clothes.
Ed, Eddy, and Marissa enters his garage. He turns on a bare bulb in his otherwise darkened garage. Marissa smiles.
"Okay, here it is." Eddy said, looks around warily. "You know that lint you find in your belly button? Well, if you don't clean it out, it grows! And when it gets big enough, it runs away behind the couch! It waits there, jiggling, and gets even bigger! Then, it grows into a baby! And at night, they come out and feed on table scraps! That's why babies smell so bad."
Marissa laughs at Eddy's version.
"Oh, my god! I'm sorry... I just... can't stop laughing!" Marissa said, laughing.
Marissa continues to laugh just as she, Ed, and Eddy continue to wait for Edd to return.
Edd's parents came home with a van. Their names are Carla and Lennard. Carla is Edd's mother, and Lennard is his father. Edd walks downstairs in clean clothes.
"Greetings, mother and father." Edd said. "You're home."
"Hello, dear." Carla said to Edd. "You're a bit wet."
"Yeah, I was filthy while trying to find a shower, so Ed and Eddy cleaned me up by using a hose." Edd said.
"Oh, that's okay." Lennard said. "Listen, we're about to renovating our bathroom, you want to help?"
"No, thank you. I'm about to go out and hang out with my friends." Edd said.
"Okay, dear. Be back by sunset." Carla said.
"I will. Goodbye." Edd said.
"Bye, Eddward. Have fun!" Lennard said.
Edd leaves his house and goes back to Eddy's house. There, he meets up with Ed, Eddy and Marissa in his garage.
"What took you so long, Double D?" Eddy asked.
"Well, you see, Eddy, I was drying myself off with a towel. My parents are about to renovating the bathroom." Edd said, explaining.
"That's... uh... good for you, Double D. Now, come on! Let's go to my room." Eddy said.
The Eds and Marissa enters Eddy's bedroom.
"So, Marissa, can you tell us about yourself?" Eddy asked.
"Sure." Marissa said, smiling. "My full name is Marissa Isabelle Scarlett Smith."
"Whoa, that's a long full name you have here." Eddy said, smiling.
"It sure is." Marissa said, smiling.
"Where are you from?" Edd asked.
"I'm from San Diego." Marissa said, smiling.
"You're from there?" Edd asked.
"Born and Raised. My parents, my brothers, and I live there." Marissa said.
"Oh, cool, you have a brother?" Ed asked, smiling.
"Yeah, his name is Mark." Marissa said, smiling.
"Interesting." Edd said smiling.
"Ooh! Ooh! What are your hobbies?" Ed asked, smiling.
"I love to draw pictures, write stories, animate animations, make movies, and do some modelling." Marissa said.
"Oh cool!" Eddy said, smiling.
"Indeed. You're very creative, Marissa." Edd said, smiling.
"Thanks." Marissa said, smiling.
"Is there anything else you would like to hare, Marissa?" Eddy asked.
"Sure." Marissa said, smiling. "I'm the descendant of the original princess of the city of Tombanus. It's a castle in the sky."
"You're the descendant?!" The Eds asked in unison.
"Why, yes. Yes I am." Marissa said, confirming.
"Wait. If you're not the princess, who is?" Eddy asked.
"I don't know. Even if I do, I won't tell you her name." Marissa shrugged.
"Fair enough. So, why are you back your home, Marissa?" Eddy asked.
"That's the problem. Several men in green and camouflage uniforms came and separated me from my parents and my brother. They kidnapped me and took me to their airship. Luckily, I managed to escape, and that's how I ended up here." Marissa said, explaining why.
"Oh, dear. That's not good." Edd said.
"I know. Listen, those men are coming after me. They're planning to kidnap me." Marissa said, fearfully.
"Kidnap you? Why?" Eddy asked.
"They wanted me because I'm the last descendant of the family, and they wanted me to open the gate where the Statue of Morality is." Marissa said, explaining the details.
"You mean they want to be immortal?" Edd asked.
"Yes." Marissa said, confirming the truth.
"Well, this is getting terrible for you. It already sucks for us. All of the kids here are leaving the cul-de-sac because they're moving into their dorm rooms at their new schools." Eddy said.
The Eds know that everyone in the cul-de-sac are leaving. Kevin and Rolf got a high school scholarship at the Norwood Academy, Nazz, Sarah and Jimmy are going to Briarwood Prep, and Jonny is going to a psychiatric school.
"Oh dear." Marissa said.
"I know. It sucks, man. But it's kinda cool. Four whole years without them." Eddy said until realizes something. "Hey, Marissa."
"Yes?" Marissa asked.
"Do you know how we can get to Tombanus?" Eddy asked, smiling.
"Yeah. We can get there. This crystal can find the entrance. But we need to find a way there before those military agents get here." Marissa said.
"I know one ride that'll get us outta here before they do." Eddy said, smiling. "Requiem for a Whiplash. Come on! Let's go to the junkyard."
So, Ed, Edd, and Marissa follow Eddy out of his house, and they all start heading to the junkyard.
At the junkyard, the Eds and Marissa rebuilt a fearsome rollercoaster.
"There she is. You want an escape, you got it! Welcome to Requiem for a Whiplash!" Eddy said, introducing the ride. "Hop it."
The Eds and Marissa hop into the shopping cart. Marissa removes her shoes to trip the wires that hold the cart back. The cart starts to move onto the ride.
"Okay, here we go, guys." Eddy said.
"This is a bad idea!" Edd shouted.
"Here we go!" Eddy said, start screaming.
The ride starts. The Eds and Marissa go down the hill full tilt.
"Faster pussycat, faster!" Ed shouted.
"Ed, give it a break, will ya?" Eddy shouted.
"You got it, Eddy!" Ed said.
Ed sticks his head out behind and rips up the boards with his teeth. The cart goes off a hill, and the Eds and Marissa fall out. Marissa and Eddy land on the board. Edd lands on top of them. Ed lands on top of his three friends.
"Giddyap, horsey!" Ed shouted.
The cart lands on top of the Eds and Marissa and flips right-side up. The wheels fall off, and the axles spark against the wood.
"Let's sing a song!" Ed said, not scared at all.
The cart slides into a giant half-cylinder and stops dead. The cylinder tips over and points at the sky. A ticking, like that of a time bomb, is heard.
"Oh, dear. Curse my avid inventing." Edd said, scared.
"What?" Eddy asked.
A bell rings, and a spring shoots the Eds and Marissa skyward as they exit Peach Creek and land somewhere in the middle of nowhere.
"That was amazing!" Marissa said, hopping out of the shopping cart. "Have you guys done that before?"
The Eds hop out of the shopping cart as well.
"We made scams for money." Edd said.
"Really? You guys must be creative, huh?" Marissa asked.
"Yeah! That's right. We're creative scammers, we are." Eddy said, smiling. "Some of our scams succeed, and some fail, but we all put our best efforts into them. Why don't you ask Double D what's his middle name?"
"What's his middle name?" Marissa asked.
"Eddy, don't!" Edd said to Eddy.
"Marion!" Eddy said, smiling.
Marissa ended up laughing at Edd's middle name.
"Marion? That's a girl's name!"
"Yes, ha ha, very funny. Well, can we continue our game?" Edd asked.
"Okay, do you remember the time when you had hiccups?" Eddy asked, smiling.
"Hiccups? Me?" Edd asked, dumbfounded.
"It lasted for two days!" Eddy said.
"I'm sure I would have remembered involuntary spasms of my diaphragm, Eddy." Edd said.
"Wait! I remember something I forgot!" Ed said, holding up a spatula. "See? A flipper."
"That's a spatula, Ed." Edd said.
"Cool! From when we spray-painted that gold jewelry!" Eddy said, smiling.
"Incorrection!" Ed said.
"Ed's right, Eddy. This is clearly from when we bartered eggs from Rolf." Edd said, holding the spatula.
"Wrong!" Ed said, grabs the spatula from Edd. "Oh look, a flipper!"
"It's a spatula, stupid." Eddy said.
"It reminds me of when we made that giant pancake! Drool I must. Yum." Ed said.
"We never made no giant pancake!" Eddy said, angrily.
"Did too! Proof: a flipper." Ed said.
Eddy angrily attacks Ed.
"Gentlemen, please. This game was meant as a commemoration of friendship, a retrospective of days gone by." Edd said as the duo fights.
"What else do you guys remember, Double D?" Marissa asked.
"Well, one time, we embarked on a learning spree by disassembling various objects around the cul-de-sac and stumbled into a bizarre universe that defies the laws of physics." Edd said. "You see, I was taking some notes and Ed have stumbled into another dimension."
"Oh, another dimension?" Marissa asked.
"Why, yes." Edd said. "Eddy ate the sun, Sarah's mouth came off, Jonny's body tucks his disembodied head with Plank for a head, a three-headed Rolf and Nazz in a body of some kind of a purple reptile."
"Wow. That must be excited." Marissa said.
"It is." Edd said before turning to Eddy. "Eddy, it's your turn now to remember."
"Okay, well, all I remember is Edtropolis." Eddy said.
"Edtropolis? What's that?" Marissa asked.
"It's a cardboard city we built at the lane. It was really fun to use big city scams by using a shoe shining stop, Ed's Tattoo Parlor, and many shops and refreshments to scam the kids out of their money." Eddy said, explaining Edtropolis.
"Okay. What else is there." Marissa asked.
"Oh, oh! I remember something!" Ed said, smiling. "We done a séance."
"Bravo, Ed! A Séance!" Edd said, smiling. "I wonder what happened?"
"It was interrupted because I had to take care of Sarah. You know how angry she gets when I don't do so." Ed said, remembering.
That was just then, they heard a voice.
"Yo!" A voiced shouted.
The Eds and Marissa see a girl walking on the path. She has brown hair with a small ponytail on top. She is a type of street gang girl. She wears a jean jacket, black tank top, blue jeans, and black boots.
"What the heck are you four doing here?" The girl asked.
"What are we doing here? What are you doing here?" Eddy asked, angrily.
"Ah, had to get out of Lemon Brook. Do you guys know where I can get to Peach Creek?" The girl asked.
"Peach Creek? Yeah, sure. You go back to the intersection. You make a left at the dead tree. You're welcome." Eddy said, giving the girl directions to Peach Creek.
"Thanks." The girl said, until she sees Marissa. " Hey Marissa, is that you, girl?"
"Verity, hi!" Marissa said, smiling.
Verity walks over to Marissa. The two girls hugged each other. Ed, Edd and Eddy are shocked that the two girls know each other.
"I'm sorry. You two know each other?" Edd asked.
"Eds, this is Verity, my childhood friend. We grew up together. You can say that she's my first kiss." Marissa said, introducing to Verity.
"First kiss?" Eddy asked.
"Well, when we were ten, we were playing Truth or Dare with all our classmates and our boyfriends. My ex dared us to kiss." Marissa said, smiling.
"Yeah, I'm bisexual, and it's just a little kiss." Verity said, smiling. "So, tell me your names."
"I'm Ed." Ed said smiling.
"I'm Edd also, but with two Ds." Edd said smiling.
"And I'm Eddy." Eddy said smiling.
"Nice to meet you three. Call me Verity. I'm from Lemon Brook. I came out here in the woods to see the wonders of nature." Verity said, smiling.
"Really? We're going to find Tombanus." Eddy said, smiling.
"It's a castle in the sky where Marissa's ancestors live, right Marissa?" Edd asked.
"Yep, I have to get there." Marissa said.
"No way! Forget Peach Creek, I want in." Verity said smiling. "While me, Ed and Edd are away, maybe you could have some alone time with Eddy.
Marissa smiles, blushing excitedly.
"Then it's setled. Come on, guys! Let's go!" Eddy said smiling.
The Eds, Marissa, and Verity start walking to Tombanus, beginning their adventure.

The Cartoon Network Cinematic Multiverse, or the CNCM for short, is an shared multiverse based on several Cartoon Network shows and art set within this shared fictional multiverse. It will have crossing over common plot elements, settings, cast and characters. I chose to remake most of the Cartoon Network characters and adapt them into darker and edgier settings in this multiverse.

Also, I released a short story of Billy and Mandy called "The Demon Within: A Billy and Mandy Story" which begins the Billy and Mandy universe and serves as the prequel to one of my upcoming projects, The Journey of Billy and Mandy. If you guys would like to check the short story out, please do and I was hoping to make it a horror and scary.
Thank you so much, guys. I hope you'll enjoy this chapter. And I promise you that the next chapter will be out on January 4, 2024. CillianChamp out.
