We're Monsters[[DISCONTINUED]]

Sickness

Edd stares at Tord shrugging. "Our main focus is on Tom." Matt mumbles, still staring at himself in the camera. "Edd, go you get your spell book, just as a back up." Tord mumbles, looking at Tom. "Alright..." Edd seems reluctant, but runs up the stairs to grab the spell book. Quickly opening the door, starting to look for the book, not being able to find it, tearing his room apart, looking in every single nook and cranny.
"Tord it's not here! I can't find the book!" Edd yells back to Tord, worried. Edd looks everywhere, still not finding it. "Tord I can't find it! The spell book was on my dresser, and now it's gone." Edd's voice cracks looking for it. "I can't find it! It's not in its normal spot! My dresser!" He starts pacing back and forth, trying to find the book.
"Don't you have like, a spell to just, bring it to you?! It's sort of important to have it Edd! Tom needs it, or he'll have to wake up himself, and he'll most likely have another panic attack, and we don't want that, do we?" Tord grumbles. "I do! But I have to know where it is!" Edd yells, running back down the stairs. "Where's the last place you had it?" Matt closes the camera. "Right before school started, Tom and I were- crap! I left it at school! I'm so stupid!" Edd shames himself, "If anyone got their hands on it...." Matt looks at the floor. "Edd, you have to go find it, if someone finds it, it won't be good. What if another wizard gets their hands on it?."
"No.." Tom whispers, starting to slight shake, breathing heavy, but not awake yet "No, don't please, leave me alone..." He mumbles under his breath, trying to stop something. "Tord, what's going on with him? He's not changing, it's not a nightmare?" Edd walks over to Tom.
"I'm not sure, Matt, take the car and Edd to the school to see if you can find the spell book. I'll stay here with Thomas." Tord says, the two Walking out the door in a rush.
Tord stands and watch Tom, constantly shaking, saying incoherent phrases. Mumbling other things. "Ro deg ned Tom!" He walk over to Tom feeling his forehead. "Burning." He mumbles taking his hand off Tom's forehead. "No..." Tom mumbles once again, "Tord don't please. Edd..." he keeps mumbling, hearing his name, Tord perks up. "What did I do?" He whispers to himself, ignoring it, opting the medicine cabinet to get a few things.

~At The School~

   Matt and Edd arrive at school, few students leaving the school, other lingering and talking with friends. "Edd you look around the areas you may have had it, I'll talk to Mr. Davidson." Matt mumbles, looking in the mirror of the car, not seeing himself. "Mr. Davidson has a large mirror in his office, try and avoid it." Edd mumbles, Matt nods getting out of the car.
He walks into the school, avoiding the very few mirrors in the school, arriving in the principals office. "Hello? Mr. Davidson?" Matt walks in, Mr. Davidson sitting at the desk "Matthew, hello, why are you here?"
"Edd left one of his books here, and I was hoping that you've seen it?" Matt stays there, since the mirror resigns right in front of the chairs. "No, we haven't had any books turned in. If we do, we'll tell you. It's great you stopped by. Please sit down." He says putting down the paperwork. Matt slowly sitting down. Hoping Mr. Davidson wouldn't notice, but quickly standing back up. "I want to stand, if that's alright."
"Of course, I just wanted to talk to for a little." He raises his eyebrow at the fact Matt won't sit down. "Umm, about what?" Matt looks at Mr. Davidson confused, questioning him. "Your brothers. They seem to only stick to each other and act weird around certain things. Is there something going on that the school should know about? I'll make sure that we know all the information that we need."
"I'm not sure why, we're struggling to work in life without our dads, I'll talk to them about it I guess." Matt walks out, meeting back up with Edd in the halls. "It's not in any of my classes. I'm such an idiot!" Edd shames himself again. "Edd, you aren't stupid, that's like me saying I'm not good looking." Matt smirks. "Matt, you aren't helping!" Edd turns to Matt, seeming annoyed. "I'm trying to help our brother here! I don't know how else we can!" Edd snaps. "I'm trying and you're over heat being your stupid narcissistic self!"
"Edd, lower your voice, there's still people here." Matt puts his hand on Edd's shoulder, Edd slapping it off. "I don't care Matt! Let's just go! Okay?!" Edd grumbles, Matt slowly starting to walk to the car, getting into the car.
"Matt, you're not helping. I need that spell book. It's like a part of me. I just need it okay?" Edd sighs, buckling up. "Edd, we'll find the spell book, that's not something you'll have to worry about." Matt fixed the mirror to see the road, starting to drive back home, no talking on the way. Just Edd glaring at Matt, seeming almost completely unlike himself, in extremely unsettling way.

~Time Skip~

Tord sits in the chair watching Tom shake and shiver sleeping as Matt and Edd walk in. "Did you find your spell book Edd?" Tord stands up. "No, were you able to get Tom to calm down? Wake up?" Edd looks at Tom worried. "I got him to talk to me while you two were gone."
Tom suddenly wakes up, gasping, starting to hyperventilate. "Don't please!" He manages to cough out, sweating. "Tom, calm down. Please. We don't want you hiding this from us anymore. What happens when you get the nightmares?"
"I-I um." Tom stutters, looking up at everyone's concerned face, still not wanting to give away anything.
