(MOAR WARNINGS!...BITCH :D...You'll understand in a bit...)
Tord sat and explained everything he could to Jet and Gray, crying the entire time.
"I-I walk through a hallway and found h-him and Lanie killing a guy! Th-there was s-so much blood..." Tord said, hugging himself. Jet looked at Gray with a worried look. 'This is so much for a child to be going through...even if he isn't really a child he still has the mind of one...' Jet thought.
"You okay? You're safe now, you know that right?" Jet said, rubbing Tord's back. Tord kept sobbing and looking down, but nodded anyway. Jet sighed and pulled Tord into a hug. Tord stood up on the couch and wrapped his little arms around Jet's neck and cried harder into his shoulder. It was silent for a while, except for Tord's sobs. Now Gray isn't a very emotional person, until it comes to Tord. He knew Tord wasn't really himself at the moment, but Gray still felt a tug at his heartstrings.
"I will personally make sure Edd and whoever this Lanie character is get as much pain inflicted on them as possible!" Gray said in a stern tone.
"NO!" Tord yelled, jumping off Jet.
"Please don't hurt Lanie...she my friend..." Tord said, sitting on his knees and looking down.
"Oh...alright? I'm still gonna beat Edd's ass though!" Gray said, balling his fist.
"Gray! Language!" Jet said, putting his hands on his hips. Tord looked up confused.
"What? All he says was ass...its not like I don't already knows these words mom..." Tord said with a smug look. Jet was surprised.
"Tord don't say things like that!" Jet yelled which made Gray laugh.
"Jet it's fine! You're being too prissy! Let him do what he wants!" Gray said, still chuckling a bit.
"Um? Excuse me!?" Jet said, now standing from the couch.
"I just don't think it's very good parenting to let a child CURSE Gray!" Gray now stood from the couch.
"He's not your child Jet! You're acting like his mom! Let the kid have fun!"
"Well I'm his guardian! And you are too! At least for now! We are in charge of him and what he does! And I do not want him cursing!"
"Bitch I'm his 'guardian' too! And I say he can curse all he fucking wants!"
"Do NOT call me that!" Jet said starting to get tears in his eyes.
"Aw the truth hurts doesn't it princess!" Gray said, stepping up to Jet, anger in his face. Jet's face of rage turned to hurt as he let his hands fall to his sides. Gray almost instantly felt regret.
"N-No Jet I-"
"No...I get it...I'll just...go..." Jet said, walking past Gray and towards the door to the stairs.
"Jet I-I'm sorry! I didn't mean it!" Gray said starting to walk up to him. Jet was silent as he looked at Gray, his eyes dark and emotionless, tears staining his cheeks and his brightness turned dull. He opened the door and left. Gray just stood there re-thinking recent choices. He looked behind him and saw Tord was gone.
"Tord?" Gray said looking around. He walked down one of the hallways and saw an open door. It was the door to the room they put Tord in the night before. He heard light sobbing as he opened the door. He saw Tord sitting on his knees on a chair. He was facing a window and had his head down in his arms. He was crying into them."Tord?" Gray said walking up to the chair he sat in and got on his knees next to it so he was at Tord's height.
"I-I sorry I causeded all that...I promise I won't say those bad words..." Tord said, picking his head up to show how much he was crying. Gray sighed.
"No it was my fault...I shouldn't have called Jet that...learn from my mistakes ok..." Gray said looking down.
"C-Can we go apoloagize to Jet?" Tord asked, looking at Gray with big eyes that nobody could say no to. Gray smiled and nodded. Tord reached his arms up and Gray picked him up, Tord laying his head on Gray's shoulder. They went to the stairs and walked down to the first floor. They asked some people if they've seen Jet and they said they saw him run outside. They walked outside and saw him under a tree on a hill staring at the sky. Gray slowly walked over, Tord now holding his hand. Tord let go and ran up to Jet hugging him tight. Jet yelped and looked over. He smiled and patted his hair.
"I sorry I cursed...I won't do it anymore I promise..." Jet sighed and slightly smiled.
"It's ok buddy...we shouldn't have been arguing over that anyway..." Gray walked over nervously and cleared his throat. Jet looked up and gave Gray a glare.
"Look Jet...I didn't mean what I said ok...you know how I get when I'm mad!" Gray said, rubbing his arm. Jet smiled at him too and stood up.
"Its...fine..." Jet said still smiling. He started to walk inside and Gray was confused. He didn't seem fine. When they got inside they put on TV for Tord (specifically Spongebob) and Gray asked if they could talk in another room.
"Jet you aren't just fine...I'm willing to talk about what happened alright! I admit it! I was an ass and I was wrong!" Gray said, making Jet roll his eyes and turn to walk out the room.
"Jet please tell me what's wrong...well I know what's wrong but please just talk to me!" Gray pleaded.
"I told you It's all fine..." Jet said, starting to turn the door nob.
"Jet common!" Gray said as he grabbed Jet's right arm. Jet yelled in pain as he snatched it away. Gray looked at him with a shocked and confused look. He proceeded to grab Jet's arm and pull the sleeve up while Jet protested. He saw bandages going all the way up to Jet's elbow.
"Th-These weren't here before..." Gray said as Jet snatched his arm back.
"You...did more?" Gray asked as Jet pulled his sleeve back down.
"If you want to call it that..."
"What does that mean?" Jet was silent.
"Jet how many did you do?"
"It's not how many..."
"What is THAT supposed to mean?!" Gray yelled turning Jet's shoulders to face him.
"Jet...what did you do?" Gray asked in a calm tone. Jet started to tear up and looked away. Gray huffed and pulled Jet's sleeve up again, making Jet look up.
"G-Gray no..." Jet said as Gray started to unwrap the bandages. Gray gasped and wanted to jump off a roof at what he saw. There written from Jet's wrist all the way to his elbow was the word BITCH. Gray started breathing heavily and got tears in his eyes. He picked Jet up and hugged him yelling I'm sorry over and over. Jet broke down. He hugged Gray back and sobbed into his shoulder. They spent about 20 more minuets like that before straightening themselves up and walking out. It was around 3 now and Tord was obviously having trouble staying awake. Jet giggled.
"Guess he still needs naps...he's had a long day anyway..." Jet said walking over to Tord and picking him up.
"You know what Gray...I'm putting you in charge of this! Sit in that chair over there!" Jet said pointing to a chair in the corner. Gray confusingly did as told. Jet sat Tord in his lap and got a blanket and threw it over them.
"I'm turning on Marry Poppins...You're going to do this every day for nap time or whatever you want to call it..." Jet said, setting the remote down. Before Gray could pretest, Tord snuggled into Gray's chest and closed his eyes. Gray sighed and smiled, he gave a small nod to Jet as he gave a thumbs up in return.That night they had pizza and Tord told them a story about a guy named Robert who was his new best friend. He was a dog but a robot and could even talk to Tord. He said he dreamed of him so he wanted him to be real. They all sat on the couch and were going to watch a movie to try and get Tord to sleep.
"This one!" Gray said, the remote landing on Mama (they were on Netflix btw)
"Gray...that's a scary movie! We're supposed to be getting Tord to sleep not keeping him awake!"
"Aw he'll be fine!" Gray said, pressing play. Jet rolled his eyes and put a blanket over the three. It wasn't long before you could tell Tord was getting frightened.
"Gray I think we should turn it off..." Jet whispered. Gray looked at him with a naah face and shook his head. Jet growled and kept watching the movie. It got to a jump scare and Tord screamed and jumped six feet. He sat there for about 7 seconds before crying and hanging onto Jet.
"Gray turn it off!" Jet yelled. Gray nodded as he searched for the remote. He finally got it turned off and turned the light on.
"I-I sorry..." Tord whimpered.
"Why are you sorry? It's ok that you got scared." Tord lifted his head and looked to the side.
"I haded an accidentabent..." Tord said messing with his hands.
"Oh...it's ok sweetie it happens...HEY GRAY! CAN YOU GET ME STUFF TO CLEAN SHIT OFF THE COUCH!"
"LIKE WHAT?!"
"WE HAD AN ACCIDENT!"
"oh...ALRIGHTY I GOT YOU!" Gray yelled from the kitchen type place they had on the second floor of the main base. Jet looked down to Tord trying not to cry but failing.
"Aw Tord it's alright I can clean it up! We'll even get you a bath too!"
"No! I supposed to be a big boy not a baby..." Tord said, crossing his arms. Jet frowned and patted Tord's back.
"This is honestly all Gray's fault...he's the one who turned on the scary movie...let's go get you cleaned up alright..." Tord nodded and hopped off the couch and headed towards the bathroom. He got cleaned up and they went to bed. Of couse Tord ended up sleeping with them that night.Days pass and Gray, Jet and others from the base continue to make a plan for Tom and Edd. They made Robert in their spare time to keep Tord company. So he had a talking robot dog now.
They had the perfect plan. They would all go. Jet, Gray and 20 others to get Tom back. They were also working on an antidote for little Tord, but since it was Tord's invention it was quite difficult. They were going to leave in two days and they didn't know if they were prepared. Jet was a bit scared but Gray knew they were going to succeed.
"Tord it's nap time go sit with Gray and watch a movie..." Jet said crossing his arms. Tord just looked up at Jet and kept playing with his toys.
"Tord...don't make me count to three..." Jet said, putting his hands on his hips. It hasn't been long, but Tord wasn't the best behaved child so he knew what happened when three was counted to. Jet never liked to spank Tord so Gray usually did. He was the one who comforted Tord after. But once Jet did pop him on his arm when Gray wasn't around and you could see in Tord's eyes that it broke his heart."One..." Jet said, making Tord just glance up and continue playing.
"Two..." Jet said, holding up two fingers. Tord looked up again, but continued playing.
"Two and a half!" Tord instantly jumped up and ran to Gray holding his arms up. Gray chuckled and picked him up. He put a blanket over him and asked him what he wanted to watch.
"NOTHING! I don't need a nap..." Tord said, crossing his arms.
"Tord you don't have to go to sleep...you just have to sit and watch the movie..." Gray said, clicking on Alice in Wonderland. That lasted ten minuets and Tord was out...aaaannd so was Gray. Jet walking into the living room, drying his hands from doing dishes. He looked at the two sleeping and chuckled. He was actually enjoying life for once...This was a long chapter for me yes, but there was literally only one reason for it and that was to demonstrate how Jet, Gray and Tord acted while he was a kid. AANND it's easy to write angst ok! You all know it's true...if you have a character you made you want to hurt them for no fucking reason! YOU KNOW IT'S TRUE DON'T DENY IT!
