We're Monsters[[DISCONTINUED]]

The Unexpected

   "I already said, an old friend, remember the name Mike." The book disappears, as well as the voice, Edd starts shaking, slowly walking to the couch. "Mike?! What? He wouldn't, no he couldn't!" Tord starts pacing, noticing Edd's odd behavior. "Edd, you alright? You know whatever he was saying isn't true, you are pretty skillful, and Mike, I mean, whatever that was, doesn't know jack shit."
   "No Tord! I already know it is, I know it's true. I'm nothing special. I can't turn into anything, I'm not a monster like you guys, stupid magic.." He slightly whimpers. "Edd. Wizards are the only ones that can do magic. You are special Edd! You are great at it, don't think otherwise." Tord puts his hand on Edd's shoulder, only for him to push it off. "Just, leave me alone for a bit Tord." Edd tells him, slightly shaking. "Alright Edd, call me if you need anything, okay?" Tord mutters, slowly walking up the stairs.
    Edd stare at his hand, making the slightest movement of magic, the green, glittering aurora wrapping around his finger like a rope being tightened. "Nothing special." He wipes his eyes from the tears, laying down on the couch. He puts his head up, trying to fall asleep.

   "Papa! Papa! Look!" A soft voice giggles. "I did it! I actually did it!" It laughs again. Edd looks around, seeing himself, when he was younger. Back to when Paul and Patryk would take them in the woods to practice. "Hey! Good job Edd!"  Paul pats young Edd's head, he just successfully turned an apple into an orange, "I knew I could do it!" He laughs. "Oh yay, you turned an apple into an orange. So amazing." The little Tord groans. "Tord be nice to your brother! At least he's trying." Paul sternly tells Tord. "Yes sir." He mumbles.
   "Tord, apologize to your brother. Right now." He points his finger at Tord then at Edd. "Whatever, sorry Edd." Tord grumbles, crossing his arms. "Tord! Say it like you-"
   "Papa, it's fine! Can I show daddy?" The younger Edd jumps up and down. "Of course! He's washing the dishes with Tom, alright?" The young boy runs into the house to find Tom hugging Patryk, seeming like bad timing, but he ignored it. "Hey! Hey daddy! Look, I turned the apple into an orange! I did it daddy! Hehe! I did it!" He smiles. "Didn't I do good? Right daddy?"
   "Oi! Great job Edd! Tom, isn't that awesome?" Patryk puts his hands on his shoulders. "Hehe, um, yeah. Good job Edd." Tom's voice sounds like we was crying, but still happy.
   "I'm becoming a skillful wizard! Aren't I! Haha! I can't wait to learn more." Edd smiles and laughs, Patryk pulling both Tom and Edd into a hug. "Tom, I'm sorry." Edd whispers, Tom just hugging Patryk and Edd. "W-What? What are you sorry for?" Tom turns his head slightly, Patryk getting out of the hug. "Edd, what, are you sorry about?" He says, trying not to say it sternly. "Bragging. I was just saying how I'm such a skillful wizard, and Tom can't-"
   "Edd, I love h-hearing your awesomeness, as you said. My brother is a skillful wizard." Tom nervously laughs.

   Edd jolts himself awake, still managing to cry as he was asleep. "I...I was a skillful wizard." He mumbles, Matt standing over him, fixing his hair in the camera. "Heh, I was a skillful wizard."
"Was? Edd, you still are, what were you mumbling about?" Matt mutters, mostly focused on fixing his hair. "I thought you were upstairs, with Tom?" Edd sits up. "Tord wanted me to keep an eye on you, he wanted to check up on Tom." Matt half smiles, closing the camera. "I'm fine. You shouldn't have to worry about me." Edd dizzily stands up. "How long was I out?" Edd hold his head, trying to stoop his dizziness.
   "Three, four hours? Tom started feeling better so him and Tord went out to get a few things." Matt turns his head to the phone that starts ringing. "Oh. Okay." Edd mutters, Matt picking up the phone. "Hello? Yes this is a he, um it's Matt- yeas Tom and Tord are my brothers, wait what?! Are they okay?" Matt's voice went from normal to scared really quick. "Matt, what happened?!" Edd suddenly jolts out of his dizzying phase. "Tom and Tord were in an accident! Oh god, we'll be right there!" Matt turns off the fine, grabbing his coat.

~At The hospital~

   "Dear god. Are they alright? Tord had to go into surgery, holy crap." Edd paces back in forth, not seeming to help Matt who was having trouble. "Hello you two, come follow me." One of the nurses leads the two to a room, opening it. "Oh thank god. Tom!" Edd runs to Tom giving him a hug. "Hehe...hey Edd." Tom cough up.
   "Be careful, we don't want him popping the stitches." The nurse chuckles, walking out of the room. "Tom, what happened? Who was driving?"
   "Tord was driving, and this truck, it slammed into the side of the car, flipping us over, multiple times, I think. I was knocked out...." Tom says pretty tired. "What happened to Tord?"
   "He ended up getting flung-flung out of the car, that's all I-I know." Tom stutters. "He was flung out of the car?! Is he okay?" Edd's eyes quickly widen. "I-I don't know." Tom looks down. "He came to the hospital with me. T-That's all I know! I'm sorry...."
   "Tom, we're just glad that you're okay, just glad you're okay." Matt hugs Tom. "Excuse me, but I need to talk to you three." The nurse walks in. "You're brother is Tord, no?"
   "Yes, he is? Is he okay? How is he?" Matt quickly stands up. "He, has to have his arm amputated, we already tried to save it but, we couldn't I'm sorry." She stands straight up. "His, arm amputated?!" Edd looks at the nurse, surprised. "Yes, we wanted to tell you before you saw him, he's still unconscious from the accident.." she looks generally worried, or at least sympathetic.
