@wheezydoll liked this for a starter.
School was out and the summer was theirs and to kick it off, they had decided to go down to the Barrens – a place they spent a lot of their time, to play. The first thing on the agenda was building a dam. It was pretty small, and not all that effective, but they were proud of their creation.
Or at least they had been until Bowers and his lap dogs showed up. Henry had looked pretty angry as he demanded to know if they had seen some kid run by.
Their answer hadn’t pleased him and after they trampled over their dam, Bowers punched Eddie in the face, giving him a bloody nose. Thankfully they left shortly after, not seeing Eddie as he gasped and struggled for breath only to find his inhaler empty.
They had been in such a situation before, where Eddie needed his inhaler only to find it empty, so he had taken to carrying one himself – just in case. Eddie was his closest friend after all.
“Calm d-down E-Eddie.” He said as he crouched down by his fallen friend, holding the inhaler out for him. “B-breathe.”
