We're Monsters[[DISCONTINUED]]

Not Quite Right

    Tom growls, Josh trying to grab Tord. Alex holding Edd back. "Let me help!" Edd tried to get out of Alex's grip. "I'm sorry! I'm sorry I can't!" He keeps holding Edd back, regret seeping through his face, like Josh is making him do so.
   "Move along pipsqueak." Josh growls under his breath. "I'm not a pipsqueak!" Tom snarls, more of his monster features growing, bit caring if it's slightly hurting him. "Yeah, you are, you're just so tiny!"
   "Josh stop! Let's just go home! Mom's coming home tomorrow, let's just wait till then!" Alex yells. "Not without getting rid of him!" Josh growls back in response.
   "You don't get rid of me so easily." Tord cocked his head, his body slowly changing to his demon form. Horns growing out his head, the long thin tail growing outwards, the wings flowing out his back. "Just come and get me." He flaps his wings, smiling at Josh. "You little-"
   "Just get out." Tom's voice turns more into a low growl, turning himself into the half monster form. "That's what you are, ha! Weakling!" Josh snarks, Tom snarling in response, jumping towards Josh. "Don't make me do anything that I might regret-" Tom gets cut off, Josh using his magic to throw him against the bookshelf, making a dent in the self, Tom falling to the floor, immediately Alex lets go of Edd. "I don't know what your problem is! Leave us alone!" Matt growls, Edd runs to Tom, seeming in pure pain.
   "Alex do something!" Edd turns to him, anger the only thing on his face, yet he's staying with Tom. "He can't do anything, and neither can you." Josh smirks, grabbing Tord by the front of his hoodie. "He said leave him alone!" Alex flicks his wrists sending Josh in the air quickly as Matt calls the police, Tom has turned back to human form after hitting the bookshelf, Tord turning himself back. "Alexander! Put me down!"
   "No! Josh I'm sick and tired of you pushing me around! You're 20, move out of the house and get a life!"

Matt's POV

   After the police arrived, Josh was arrested, for destruction of someone else's property, and for what he did to Tom, they took him to the hospital to check for spinal damage, Edd, Tord and me, sit in the waiting room, well I guess waiting. Alex and his mother walk in, surprising me.
   "Boys, I am so so sorry, I was never informed of this violence." Alex's mother walks over to me giving her apology. "No no, it's fine. I just-" I stop talking and just nod, I didn't want to say anything else. Alex walks over to Edd, putting his hand on his shoulder. "Edd I'm-"
   "Don't touch me!" Edd growls, slapping Alex's hand off, surprising me. "Edd come on he's trying to apologize!" Tord quickly says what I was about to say. "No! I just-"
   "Matthew, Thomas is fine now, I just need you to check him out." The doctor walks in, Tom in a wheelchair, hopefully that's just because the hospitals always do that, even with Tord. It was his arm, not his legs. I quickly run over and check him out. "We're doing a family meeting when we get home." Edd walks out to the car without the rest of us, I help Tom out as Tord insists to help him to the car. No one talks during the ride home, and when we got home, everyone went straight for the couch, Tord taking off his hoodie, just in his tank top. Family meeting, Edd standing up, being the one who called it. "What is it Edd?"
   "Tord, we need to talk about this. One that's a pretty big decision." He puts his hands in his hoodie pockets. "Which is?" I raise an eyebrow looking at him.
   "There's humans and monsters, everyone knows that. I was thinking we could be, um, more open about it. They'll be able to tell. Matt can't even see himself in a mirror, people are suspicious about me, being some magic type, and Tom and Tord with their anger problems-"
   "I don't have an anger problems Edd!" Tom rasps, his voice cracking. "Okay, okay just. I think it's something we really need to think about." Edd nervously smiles "I really feel like it would help us."
   "Dad said he didn't want us telling people, but I guess we can consider it. Anything else? It's late." I yawn. "Matt, we need to talk about Alex and Josh."
   "Edd, not this. Please?" Tom mumbles. "Tom, we kinda need to talk about it." I half smile. "This damn-" Tord starts talking but cuts himself off.
   "So many bad things would of never happened only if we told people! Oh ho!" Tom sarcastically yells at Edd, his voice still extremely raspy. "Edd you know nothing, so stop acting like you're an expert when you aren't! The bad things that have happened to this family has nothing to do with the fact we haven't told anyone!"
   "Tom can you stop yelling?" I stare at him, ad he sighs and growls at me, "Edd, its 10:30, can we please go to bed, talk about this in the morning?" Tord yawns, stretching out. "Fine, well goodnight." Edd starts walking up the stairs, using his magic to close the doors. "Hey uh, Matt I'm gonna take a shower, so, um, can you um, help me with the arm?" Tord nervously asks, "Hehe, yeah sure thing, Tord." I smile helping him take off the prosthetic. He has bit of a problem taking the prosthetic off himself, which is understandable. I'm not even quite sure how it works.
   "Thanks, I'll go ahead and take my shower." Tord takes the two and runs up to his room, Tom still sitting on the couch. "I'm gonna sleep on the couch, go ahead and get ready for bed I'm fine." Tom mutters grabbing the blanket already half-asleep.
   "Good night Tom." I turn of the lights and head to my room, hearing the shower turn on, as I go to bed, under the covers and drift of to sleep.

This chapter was for some reason extremely difficult to write! I know the chapter title might not fit the story very well, I just suck at making chapter names. :3
