Pure Souls
By: Jennifer Gay

Summary: An Ed, Edd, ‘n’ Eddy/Sailor Moon crossover… Yes, yet another one. This one will be focused on Eddy and… you’ll probably figure it out. He and the other two Ed’s are 22 in this story… And, here’s something else extra special; the story will take place in Juuban, Tokyo; in the year of 2009.

Disclaimer: I do not own Ed, Edd, ‘n’ Eddy or Sailor Moon at all! All I own are a couple of OC’s that will show up, and the group of villains that will appear… but that’s pretty much it!

Chapter 1: New Arrivals

It was a somewhat quiet morning here in Tokyo, Japan as we come upon a little Shinto shrine in the little subdivision of Juuban called Hikawa Shrine. It was here, in the house that was built on the shrine that we could see a room where there was a huge, fireplace like area, with a fire currently being fully active in the room.

And, praying and sitting in front of the fire, was a woman in her early twenties; she had a calm look across her face as she prayed. She had long, midnight black hair that went to her waist. She wore something that a priestess would wear; which would make sense for her, because she was the head priestess of the Hikawa Shrine.

“Rin, pyou, tou, sha, kai, jin, retsu, zai, sen…” the woman chanted as she made a few movements with her hands, “O sacred flames, show me the face of the new enemy…”

The fire in front of her grew bigger at the woman’s response as it started to produce an image to her. But, much to the woman’s frustration, it only showed two silhouettes of what she was looking for; one of them had a strange hairstyle too. The image then disappeared as the fire died down back to its normal size.

The woman made a sigh as she got up from where she was sitting down at, “Well, so much for an answer to my visions…” she muttered as she then took a bucket of water nearby and tossed the water onto the fire, making it go out instantly.

She puts down the bucket of water as she started to walk out of the room, but not before looking back at where the fire once was, “I just hope the vision is wrong…” she stated as she then left the room she was in.

Suddenly, she started to hear her cell phone ringing in the pockets of her priestess clothes, which perked up her attention, “Huh?” she questioned a little as she started to find her cell phone through her pockets, “I wonder who that could be…?”

The woman soon found her cell phone as she checked who it was that was calling; it was a friend of hers, Usagi Tsukino. The woman made a sigh as she answered her cell phone, “Hello?”

“Hello, Rei-chan!” stated the voice on the other line, “How are you?”

“Oh, I’m just dandy; besides the visions and all,” the woman named Rei replied, “Why are you calling me this early in the morning?”

“I was calling you to remind you about going with us to the airport to meet Ami-chan’s new training student,” Usagi replied, “You know, the one from America?”

“I already know this, Usagi-chan,” Rei stated back, “He’s coming in at ten this morning, right?”

“Oh, right!” chirped Usagi on the other line, “So, I’ll meet you then, okay?”

“Alright; bye, Usagi-chan,” Rei stated as she hung up her cell phone, placing it back in her pocket as she did.

Rei made a sigh as she looked at the wristwatch on her left wrist; it read nine-thirty, “I better hurry up and meet them,” she muttered as she walked towards her room to get ready…

Meanwhile, high above in the skies of Japan, we could see a plane, packed full of people that were going to Tokyo, Japan. But, out of all of these people, there were a couple of people that stood out in First Class. It was three men, all of them seemed to be around the same age of twenty-two; they were all sitting side by side of each other.

The first person was a tall man with a red-tinted buzz cut, a unibrow and had bright, hazel brown eyes. He was wearing a red and white striped t-shirt that was underneath a long, green jacket that went a little past his waist, baggy blue jeans, and black tennis shoes. He was the one that was sitting near the isle.

The second person was a middle sized man that had only three strands of black hair coming out of the back of his white-striped, black sockhat and had dark, jade green eyes. He wore a red-orange t-shirt that went past his waist, purple carpenter pants that went to his knees, and blue tennis shoes with long, red socks that went to his mid calf. He was the one sitting in the middle of his two friends.

The third and final person was a man that seemed to be just a smidge too short for his age. He had three, long strands of dark, almost navy blue-colored hair that stuck out more than the rest of his slightly shaggy blue hair and had dark, ice blue eyes. He wore a yellow t-shirt that went right to his waistline. The shirt had a purple collar and a red stripe coming down the right side of his shirt. He wore baggy blue jeans with a silver wallet chain coming out of his front left pocket and also wore red tennis shoes. He was the one sitting next to the window.

The man sitting next to the window only made a sigh as he looked out at the window beside him; he saw the city of Tokyo beneath him, ‘Geez, what a huge city, compared to Peach Creek.’

Suddenly, the three men could hear pilot turning on his microphone through the plane’s speakers, “Hello, this is your captain speaking. We will be landing shortly, so please fasten your seatbelts before we land, thank you.”

“Oh wow, we’re almost there!” stated the man who sat on the outside of the three as he turned to the man who sat in the middle, “Aren’t you excited, Double D?!”

“Yes Ed, I am excited,” replied the man that was named Double D, which was actually his nickname. The man named Double D then turned to the man glancing out the window, “Aren’t you excited too, Eddy?”

“Huh?” questioned the man named Eddy as he turned to Double D, “Oh, yeah, I am,” he replied, “But you should be the most excited, Double D; you’re training to be a doctor here.”

Double D chuckled a little at Eddy’s statement, “Well yes, I know,” he stated, “But I’m just keeping my feelings on the inside for now.”

It was about ten minutes later that the three men; or the three Ed’s, got off their plane. It only took them a few minutes to get to where they would find their luggage; which was not lost within the crowd of other luggage from other passengers. After getting their luggage, the three of them soon trailed to the front entrance of the airport.

“So, Double D,” Eddy started to say as the three of them continued to walk towards the entrance, “This chick that’s picking us up; what does she look like?”

“Well, I know she’s around the same age as us,” Double D replied, “But she went into the medical profession very early; I think at the age of nineteen or so…”

“Hey, I didn’t ask for a history lesson,” Eddy interrupted with a bit of a snap, “I just asked what she looked like; so we can find her in here, ya know?”

“Oh, sorry…” replied Double D with an apology and an embarrassed look on his face, “I really don’t know what she looks like.”

Eddy made a bit of an irritated sigh, “Geez, I’d expect something like that from Ed.”

Ed, in the meantime, seemed to be keeping his thoughts to himself; he kept looking around until he spotted something up ahead of them, “Hey, there’s a sign with your name on it, Double D.”

“What?” questioned both Double D and Eddy as they turned to where Ed was looking at.

And, it was just as Ed had said; there was a sign up ahead that said ‘Eddward Johnson’. It was also written in English as well and it was also being held up by a person, which they could not see because of the crowd around them.

“Well, that’s a bit convenient,” Double D stated as he turned to his two friends beside him, “Well, let’s get going.”

Ed and Eddy only nodded their heads as they soon trailed off with Double D towards the sign with Double D’s name on it. It was when the three Ed’s got there that they saw not one, not two, not even three; but nine women standing there, with one of the tallest women in the group holding up the sign.

One of them was a twenty-two year old woman. She had two, long blond pigtails that had a weird hairstyle on the top. She also had bright, ocean blue eyes. She was wearing a dark blue t-shirt underneath a long sleeved, white denim-like jacket that went to her waist; an ordinary pair of blue jeans and a pair of dark blue and white tennis shoes. She also had a ring around her finger. (Usagi Tsukino)

The other woman was also twenty-two years old. She had dark, ocean blue hair that went to her chin and ears, which looked a little bit like a boy’s haircut, and had bright, sapphire blue eyes. She was wearing a baby blue t-shirt with a long sleeved white undershirt, ivory-colored cargo pants that went to her knees, and baby blue and white sneakers. (Ami Mizuno)

The third woman was also around the age of twenty-two. She had long, midnight black hair that went all the way down to her hips, and had bright, majestic violet eyes. She was wearing a blood red t-shirt with a pair of rose-colored cargo pants that went down pass her knees and black and red sneakers. (Rei Hino)

The fourth woman was around the age of twenty-two, but had the height of an older woman. She had shiny brown hair that was pulled back into a high ponytail with a sea green ribbon and emerald, green eyes. She was wearing a short, green sleeveless top with a mock turtleneck, a pair of white shorts, and white and green tennis shoes. She also had a pair of red, rose-shaped earrings. She was also the one holding up the sign. (Makoto Kino)

The fifth woman looked to be the age of twenty-two. She had a long, blond hair with a bun that was tied with a red ribbon on the tip of her head. She wore a short sleeved, white t-shirt that was underneath a pair of blue jean overalls with a pattern of a yellow star on her left knee. She also wore a pair of yellow and white tennis shoes. (Minako Aino)

The sixth woman there also looked to be around the age of twenty-two, if not a little bit younger. She had short, midnight black hair that went to her shoulders. She was wearing a short sleeved, lavender vest that went to her mid chest, while underneath was a beige-colored shirt. She was also wearing a pair of long, tan colored jeans and wore a pair of purple tennis shoes. (Hotaru Tomoe)

The seventh woman looked to be the oldest of the whole group. She had long, dark emerald hair that was in a bun at the top and went all the way down to her hips and had majestic, red-violet eyes that seemed to make her older than she originally appeared. She was wearing a white t-shirt underneath a short sleeved lavender dress that went to her ankles and wore a pair of lavender and white sneakers. (Setsuna Meioh)

The eighth woman there was around the age of twenty-six or so. She had medium length, aquamarine-colored hair that was pulled back from her face with a blue headband and had bright, cerulean blue eyes. She wore a white dress that went to her knees and wore a pair of dressy, white high heels. (Michiru Keioh)

The ninth and final woman looked too much like a young man at first glance. She had short, boyish blond hair and dark, navy blue eyes. She wore something different than the other woman beside her; she wore a white top that seemed fitted for a boy, and tan khakis that a boy would usually wear and a pair of white and tan tennis shoes. (Haruka Ten’oh)

“Whoa,” Ed muttered a little, “Are they all waiting on us?”

“I would think so, Ed,” Double D replied to his friend as they then started to walk up to the nine women.

It was the blue haired girl of the group that noticed the three men coming towards them, “… Oh! It’s Eddward-san,” she stated with a smile.

“Huh?” Where at, Ami-chan?” questioned the two young blonds of the group as they looked around to find him.

“There, the one in the black beanie,” Ami stated again.

Soon the whole group of women found themselves looking at the man in the black beanie. They soon realized that the man was not alone; having two other men beside him.

It was the woman with the long, midnight black hair that noticed something about one of the men, ‘Wait a minute… the short one there; his hairstyle is similar to the one in my vision!’ she thought with surprise as she lowered her head a little with another thought, ‘But, I’m not sensing an evil aura from him at all…’

“K-Konnichiha, minna-san!” (“H-Hello everyone!”) Double D greeted to the nine women in front of him as he bowed a little with a traditional Japanese greeting, “Kano dochira ka ga Mizuno Ami suru koto ga okoru?” (“Would one of you happen to be Ami Mizuno?”)

The blue haired woman named Ami only chuckled at his politeness, “That would be me, Eddward-san,” she replied, “And you know we can speak in English; if you can feel more comfortable with that.”

“… Oh, a-alright,” Double D muttered with a bit of an embarrassed tone in his voice. It was then that Double D gestured to Ed and Eddy beside him, “I’m sorry; I forgot to mention that two of my friends wanted to come with me. I hope you don’t mind that at all…”

“No, I don’t mind it,” Ami replied as she then gestured towards the other eight women beside her, “Oh, and these are my friends as well.”

Soon all of the women introduced themselves to the three men, “So, what are your friend’s names?” questioned Ami, noticing that Double D’s friend’s seemed a bit too quiet.

“… Oh! My name is Ed!” Ed greeted with a wide grin on his face.

“Uh… Oh yeah; and my name’s Eddy,” Eddy finally stated to the girls.

“Well everyone,” Ami started to say as everyone turned to her, “Let’s go back to the shrine, alright?”

The women of the group only nodded their heads as the three Ed’s made a confused face at what she meant, “Shrine?” questioned Double D as the three Ed’s soon followed the nine women out of the airport.

“Yes,” Ami stated back, “My apartment is too small for two people; let alone four. So you will be staying at the Hikawa Shrine,” she then gestured towards Rei, “Rei is also the high priestess there, and she said she would take you in.”

Rei only nodded her head, “Yeah, but I wasn’t expecting three people…” she made a little smile afterwards, “But that’s alright; I don’t mind the extra company.”

Soon the group of twelve arrived to the where the women parked their cars at, “Well, here are our cars,” Ami stated as she turned to everyone, “Let’s get going.”

Everyone only nodded their heads as they soon got inside their cars; with Double D, Eddy and Ed riding with Rei in her car, as they soon drove off towards the Hikawa Shrine…
