NOW PLAYING:Jamiroquai-Cosmic Girl-Guess who's heart's in zero gravity!
"Watch where you’re going, Superman!" snapped Daisy as Eddy knocked her for the 8th time accidentally on purpose. They swung through the air like two conkers on a string.
"Oh yeah, This is what I’m talkin’ about!" he yelled as he soared through the air. He swung as high as he could and juttered when he felt the gravitational buzz in the pit of his stomach. Swooping back down, he held his arms back and dived down fiercely like an eagle.
"Ha! Dorky’s toast!" sniggered Kevin, watching from the side with a huge bottle of Cola.
"Yawn!" sneered Eddy as he zipped towards Daisy.
"Eye-candy, hold the Mayo!" he bellowed as he cupped her up in his arms just as she was about to land.
"What, you-put me down, you meathead!" She squirmed, pushing him away as they flew upwards towards the ceiling. "Let me go!"
"Let you go? Sure!" said Eddy smartly before pulling his hands away. Daisy screamed as she bombed to the ground and swayed side to side at the end of her bungee rope. Kevin, Edd and Rolf rushed to her aid. Daisy collided with Edd with a terrible thud, knocking him down, but not before tangling him up in her bungee rope along the way.
"Sorry, Double Deeeeeeeee!" she yelped as she levitated weightlessly like a balloon.
"Hang on to your spleen, -tom-boy Daisy-girl! Here comes Rolf!" He cried as he leapt towards her on her way down. He wrapped his legs around her as he wrestled with the buckle at the back. Melissa dragged Edd to the side like a carcass.
"Rolf,get your butt out of my ear!" Daisy pleaded. He catapulted around and chewed on the clasp. “Be careful, Rolf! Oh Lord...” Melissa fretted for her little sister as she found Rolf legs entwined around her ribcage as he wrestled with her bungee rope.
"You’re sick, Rolf!" laughed Eddy as he whooshed past them.
"Behold!" beamed Rolf as it clicked open. He steadied the missile-like Daisy by scraping his club-like feet along the ground. He scooped her up protectively while Kevin wobbled a threatening fist at Eddy.
"What I wouldn’t give to cream that little gimp!" he snarled under his breath. Daisy blinked in astonishment.
"You have gone crazy, laugh-a-minute Ed boy!" scolded Rolf as Daisy looked out from under the shadow of his chin like a baby bird, her arms clung around his neck. She glared icily at Eddy.
"Ooh if looks could kill!" he cooed, swinging his untied bungee rope flirtatiously. "Man, you can’t half get around fast with that broken foot, Kev!" scoffed Eddy enjoying Kevin’s uneasiness. Rolf’s reprimanding falling on deaf ears.
Yeah well it’s just sprained, ain’t it?" snubbed Kevin. "Like your brain, dweeby!"
"Really? Your foot’s not broken?!?" interrupted Melissa. "Well that’s great, now we can run the casino properly with you and Eddy as joint managers!"
"What, are you nuts?!?" shrieked Eddy, palpitating.
"Better practise your 52-pick-up, Dork Dorkk and Dorky! Nea-ha-ha!" he cackled wickedly as he and Rolf took Daisy into the den for some Cola.
"What in the name of Uncle Sam’s Undershorts are you doing, putting him as joint manager alongside me?!?" demanded Eddy, standing on Melissa’s hips and clinging onto her shoulders.
"In case you’ve forgotten, Eddy,,," she stated firmly, prizing him off. "He DID give you 150 jawbreakers"-
"Yeah, for 50% of the prof"-
"AND..." she interrupted. "To be honest I kinda feel bad for the guy, I mean to have a drinks machine land on your foot and be decked in the face in the space of 3 days isn’t what I’d call lucky, would you?"
"Are you serious?!?" he pleaded, on his knees. "I haven’t done anything bad enough to deserve this! He’s a lunatic, I’ll go crazy, he tortures me, he’s mean, he’s ugly, he doesn’t share!"
"Neither do you, what’s your point?" she said, arms folded. “Double Dee told me all about his birthday and you forgetting, how could you?”
“Oh please, it’s nothing...” Edd laughed in modesty.
“Course it’s something, Double Dee, he’s meant to be your best friend!” Melissa argued.
“Ey-ey-ey, toots!” Eddy snapped. “I’ve had a lorra stuff on my mind hee, okay so just can it!”
“Well Kevin didn’t forget his birthday, he went for a whole 20 minutes without calling him a dork!”
“He did?!?” Nazz perked. “It’s a miracle!”
~She stood up for me...~ Edd was amazed. ~No-one ever stands up for me...~
" Yeah well, I can see why Nazz jibbed him, the sucker..." Eddy muttered spitefully. Edd pulled him to one side. "I didn't stay up all last nite and make 150 counterfeit jawbreakers for nothing..." Edd muttered to the side with a competitive glint in his eye having watched Eddy deteriorate. Something about Melissa’s defending of Edd spurred him to wanna kick some overdue tail.
"Shall we investigate?"
"Double D’s got a plan, Eddy!" yelled Ed as he hoisted Eddy over his shoulder.
"Where are you three going?" asked Melissa as she and Nazz headed for the DJ booth.
"I’m going to check the machines are in working order…like you asked." Stammered Edd.
"Did I?..." She pondered." Oh well, okay. We’ll just be down here then if you need anything."
“Whoa...”Nazz stood agape.
“What?” Melissa and Edd asked her.
“Your hair, Mel...” Nazz pointed. “It’s blue!”
“Oh! So it is...heh!” Melissa shrugged awkwardly, tucking the rebel tresses back under her hat.
"My life is falling apart." Eddy lamented as He, Ed and Edd made their way to the rafters. The trio marched through the skywalk, over the balcony and into the control deck where the lighting panel sat.
