Anything But Human

Chapter 1

The front door slam shut. Tom who's obviously drunk made it back to his apartment. Having there home blown up obvious a bad thing has happened to them, but the goodside is he don't have to face Edd and Matt when comes this late.

Y'know after everything that has happened everyone can still be there normal selfs. At least it seems to be in Tom's perspective, not like he can read minds after all. He stumbled to his room, and flopped on his bed once he got there.

It was getting harder to keep his "inner monster" contained, no matter how cringy that may sound it's true in a literal sense. Tom been so good keeping that thing bay and the one time it got out, when Edd and Eduardo got super powers. Now the fucking bastard don't want to stay contained, after all these years of trying to be normal something always got to fuck it up some how.

He'll have to deal with it in the morning, maybe he'll get an idea to deal with the problem.

...

It was morning only find his arms coated in black fur. Thanks to his hangover Tom ran to his bathroom just to throw up, well that just great. Tom got up, looks in the mirror, only to find himself with purple horns and floppy ears.

"Oh come on, now?! Why now!?!" Tom yelled at himself.

Tom tried to calm himself, 'ok think, it's morning, so maybe I can text Edd and Matt that I'm sick, no... Edd been protective lately, he might to take care of me' he was thinking to himself before a knock at his door. Shit

"Tom you there?!" Edd yelled,

"Um, yeah! I'm not going out to day!" Tom quickly yelled an excuse.

"Why not? Can you come for breakfast at least?"

"No! I can't, I'm having, uhh, a hangover!" Well necessary that's not a lie. After that he heard a rather disappointmenting sigh,

"Tom..."

Tom's ears lower, recently Edd been more motivated to help to with his drinking problems. Don't get him wrong, Edd always told Tom about this, but after losing a 'friend' been more talkative about the topic. Matt was even getting in the conversation, trying to get him to do something else than drinking.

Though Tom have tried to stop drinking, but than he realize it's hard to stay sober. He can't help but to feel guilty for not stopping by just about Edd's voice. That doesn't matter now, now he have to hide this... Form first before anything.

Once Tom sure that Edd left, he immediately went to look around his apartment. There got to be something to help him reverse this. If you haven't noticed this... Thing only comes out with mere emotions. But it needs a lot of it to truly affect him, so why is he in half form now?!

He needs to look for something to calm his nerves, Susan perished with their old home, at least Tommie Bear still exist. But Tom needs to find him first, he really needs to keep the bear in his hoodie pocket again.

Digging through the already messy room, with many alcohol bottles, found Tommie Bear. After he went to get some painkillers for his massive headache.

"Finally" Tom muttered.

He got on his bed and hold the bear close. Tom tried to not look at his arms, or any part his body. That will just decrease the chance turning back to normal. Instead he laid down and cuddled Tommie Bear, maybe he'll wake up without his tails and other parts of the monster.

...

"Matt, I'm really worried about Tom." Edd said in worry. Tom haven't come for half the day.

"Hmm... Maybe he's sick." Matt replied, looking away from his mirror.

"He said have a hangover, but hangover don't last this long... If that's the case I need to check up on him!" Edd as he got a ran to his Tom's apartment.

"Wait! Edd!" Matt followed.

When Edd got to the front door and pulled out a key.

"Sense when you had a key, do have a key for my room?" Matt question.

Edd ignored him and opened the door, only find a mess of an apartment. He quickly made his way to Tom's room as Matt is on his trail. When got to Tom's room he was met with a surprise.

There was a nest of blankets and other soft items. Tom rest in the middle, having Tommie Bear in his arms. Not to mention Tom has a different appearance, he have a black tail, paws and purple tinted floppy's ears, plus completely purple horns.

Not to mention he seems to have gotten smaller than Edd remembers. Before he could say anything Matt jumps in.

"Aww, how cute!" Matt said as he pet Tom, earning purrs from the purple horned creature.

If that wasn't enough, Ringo came in the room, hopped on the bed and snuggled against Tom. Edd sighed, it was rather a cute sight. Was this the reason why haven't Tom got out today?

"But why though..." Edd muttered to himself.

Edd got closer to the three, yup Tom have definitely gotten smaller. Out of curiosity he decided to touch the furr on Tom's arm. It was soft, like really soft, but before he got a chance to pull away Tom grabbed his arm and cuddle close to it.

Edd nearly yelp by the sudden action, it happened to quickly and neither he expected it. But seeing Tom so relax calmed him, Tom had his arm close to his face, most likely enjoying his scent.

Sure the big question is how did this happened to Tom, but what's the harm by just enjoying this for a bit. Not like that he can think of any.

He felt Tom shift for a bit before he groaned. Both Edd and Matt looked at him, he's waking up. Edd tried to pull his arm away but Tom's gripp was like iron.

Welp this will be tough to explain...
for both parties.
