The car ride took almost an hour and it was getting dark out. Al didn't tell you much about where you were going, so you only knew that they were going to help with Matt and they were old friends of his. Well, one was.

He pulled into a driveway and two people came outside to greet you. One looked like a teenager and he had weird coloured hair. You couldn't tell if it was grey, black, or brown. He also wore black clothes and a red scarf and had dark red eyes. The other person was taller with blond hair and red eyes and he was wearing a red button-up with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows and black pants. You still didn't understand why almost everyone you met wore black and red so much. The taller one came over to your door while the shorter one went to Al's.

"You didn't really explain why you were coming." He didn't seem very happy about you guys showing up.

"I'll explain when we get inside."

The shorter one flung open your door and said, "Hi, (Y/n), I'm Egil! That's Markell over there. Do you want to come inside?"

"Sure..." He freaked you out a little bit. He looked and acted really excited, but something seemed...off about him.

His smile widened a bit when you answered and he unbuckled you before putting you on the ground, "Come on, I'll introduce you to everyone!" He speed-walked to the front door and held it open for you.

The house seemed like another mansion on the outside, bu the inside was pretty dark and looked a bit like a giant cabin. You could see into the living room from the door and saw the fireplace going, but no one was in there. There were a few chairs in there and some pictures above the fire, but not much more. You could also see a bit of the kitchen. It wasn't much either. You could only see a piece of the table and the sink from your position. He started up the staircase and you followed.

"My brothers are up here somewhere."

You hummed a reply. When you got to the top of the stairs, you looked around. There were lots of windows but most of them had the curtains covering them. You two walked down the hallway in silence. You came to a room with a little red dragon on the door. He knocked on it and said, "Big brother, are you in there?"

"Yeah, come in."

He opened the door and you stared at the colourful room in front of you. The walls were light blue and the carpet was white with a few stains here and there. The dressers were dark brown with engravings on the front of the drawers, the bed was huge with multicoloured pillows, a red blanket, black sheets, and had purple curtains like one of the fancy ones on tv. There were also lots of pictures and posters on the walls.

There was a boy on the bed who looked a little older than Egil. He was wearing a red sailor suit- looking thing with black pants and red eyes. He was watching something on tv and smiling but he didn't look at us.

"This is (Y/n). (Y/n), this is my big brother Loki."

He finally looked over at us, "Oh, hi, (Y/n). Markell said you'd be coming over."

There was an awkward silence as he looked back at the tv.

"Well...we should go now."

"Alright."

He led you to the other end of the hallway and he knocked on the door, "Bernard? Thurston?"

"Are they also your brothers?"

"Sort of. It's more like half-brothers."

"I don't think they're in there."

He frowned, but it was gone instantly, "Well, you don't need to meet them yet, anyway!"

You hummed another response. You were getting tired, but you figured you wouldn't be able to sleep until the car ride home. The two of you went back downstairs and went towards the living room. On the way down he mentioned a kid named Petar who I might like to hang out with. You got downstairs and saw Al, Markell, and two men who you assumed were Thurston and Bernard sitting in the chairs that were now moved to look at each other.

He pointed to the two as he said their names, "That's Thurston and that's Bernard!"

They all looked at you and Al motioned you to come in. You walked over to him and he said, "(Y/n), me and the rest of my family used to buy weapons from these guys. They're going to hook us up with some really cool new ones to help keep you safe, okay?"

"Can I have one?"

"That was the point."

Egil spoke up, "A flamethrower is always a good weapon."

"We're not giving a flamethrower to a child!"

"Bombs?"

"I was thinking more like a dagger but it all depends on what you've got."

"We should have her try some to see what'll work, that okay?"

Al looked down at you then back to Thurston and said, "Yeah, that's fine. I should call Gil over first, though."

"How long were you planning on staying?" Markell rested his head in his palm.

"Just until we get what we need."

He sighed, "How long will it be until he gets here?"

Al glanced down at his phone and saw the text messages from Gil, "Oh, uh maybe an hour?"

"Fine, let's get her suited up. Egil, bring her back up to Loki."

"Okay!"

He grabbed your hand and started walking to the steps. He looked over at you and whispered, "Be excited, it's your first weapon! I remember when Markell gave me my first weapon. It was way back in the 900s when I was about your age," You didn't understand how he could've been alive so long ago, but you let him continue the story. "It was only a wooden sword, but it made me so happy to finally be like him and Loki! It was also really fun to set it on fire once I got a real one..." You looked up at him and saw he was no longer walking, just staring off into space with a huge grin on his face. He continued talking slower than before, "The fire spread to the grass and then to the house...All the...those people screaming..." He started laughing and you ran to Loki's room.

"Loki!"

"Yes?"

"Egil is scary!"

"Nah, he just has some weird interests."

"He's talking about fire and people burning though!"

"Yeah, that'd be one of those interests. I assume you've never heard of a pyromaniac."

"No...what's that?"

"Egil."

"Oh."

"Don't worry, he won't hurt you...probably."

I don't know if the Awesome Trio would still be a thing in the 2p world, but I'd guess those three would be linked somehow. I'm sorry if the characters are a bit OOC or anything, I don't know much about the 2p Nordics other than the fact Iceland is great.
