Author note
This is part of another story that may take awhile to see the light so enjoy this little thing

Will was trembling, but not only because of the cold, the operation table was freezing and he was wearing only underwear, while strapped down there waiting for the Gleeful to arrive, he was afraid too, not only for him and the pain he will soon endure, but for Mason and Mabel too, it was a test, and he know it.

Fours years ago the twins arrived at the manor, and Will had to take care of them, something that didn't bother him at all, the six years old were nice but also extremely sad, they lost both parents, and Will after the first year did everything he could to make them happy, it wasn't easy, not only for their lost but also because they lived with Stanford and he was strict with them, especially with Mason, the heir of the Gleeful's empire.

However it wasn't until the twins turn ten and show affection towards Will that Stanford decided he needed to train them to be more like him, but of course he hide his true intentions under the lie that he was giving them classes of anatomy, and today was the big test, doing an operation in none other than Will.

While the demon was thinking the door open revealing the Gleeful, the twins were pale and when they looked at Will there almost naked they turn white.

Stanford took a pencil and drawn a line over Will's  torso before handed them gloves and a scalpel telling them they have to cut it open, remove a nail from Will's stomach, then close the wound with stitches, if they do it right they have a month of vacation before classes start again.

Mason and Mabel looked at Will, then back at themselves, they knew the consequences of disobeying but they couldn't do it Will was their only friend in that town, the only one they have, the only person who care about them in that insane house.

Stanford looked at them and smirk before repeating what he told them from the first day the training started

"He doesn't feel pain, his reactions are just something to manipulate you both, to make you feel bad so you go soft on him and then he will betray you, just like he did to me"

Stanford say and pull Will's hair  "isn't that right Will?"

Will winced at the pain and the words, of course I feel!, He wanted to yell, but looking at the twins and their teary eyes, he couldn't, he open his mouth, knowing he was condemning himself, he spoke with a soft voice

"It's t-true...I don't f-feel it.., d-don't worry about m-me..." He lie before smile at them

After that Stanford put a gag in his mouth to drown the screams and order the twins to begin

Hours later the twins leave the Laboratory to take a shower, both did what was expected from them however neither feel accomplished like they should, like Stanford said

Mason's hands were shaking he couldn't make them stop since he did the operation, he didn't wanted to, but Mabel could not carry that in her mind, do in a way of trying to make the horrid experience a bit better for his sister, he did the cutting, he regret it of course, he wanted nothing more than go to Will hug him and apologize, but he knows he can't, or else Stanford will find another way to force him to hurt the demon, something he absolutely despise

The next morning Mason is walking around in his room waiting for Will to come, like he always do to inform breakfast is ready, so he can apologize for the pain he was forced to inflict on him
