Flashback to The End

Spoilers for "The End" Pt.2 of Eddsworld

When I reached the bottom of the stairs, I flicked the light switch, making the room brighter. It wasn't good, but it was decent enough for me to hide and take shelter.

The walls were grey and filled with various cracks as the floor was covered with stains from food and drinks I had to smuggle in. And some of the stains might be my blood and tears. The furniture I found in the alleyway, so they were chipped and a little unstable. So I fixed them up a little bit, but they still sucked.

I had a desk on the left side of the room, a bed on the right, and in the back was a sofa. The sofa was the only thing that looked good because I stole one of Tord's magical cube thingies that he used to crush Tom two times in the past.

Tom also used one of them to try to stop Tord while he was in his giant ass robot. Which was really dumb. Because of that action, Tord fired a missile at him and I pushed Tom out of the way.

*Flashback*

I was in the grocery store with Edd and Matt when we saw Tom run by the store with an angry look.

"Hey it's, Tom..." said Edd

"Who?" Matt said as if he didn't remember who he was.

"I think something's wrong," Edd said concerned.

"I think your right." I said, "You guys check out our groceries while I go see what's going on." Then I ran out of the store before they could say anything else.

I saw Tom running down the sidewalk. Well more like jogging because he was running sorta slow. "Tom!" I shout as I ran after him.

He stopped running and turned around. "(Y/N)? What is it? Did Tord do anything to you or Edd and Matt?!"

As I caught up to him I said "Luckily no. But why are you running?"

"Look at this." he handed me a wanted poster. I looked at the picture and see Red Leader. Or should I say, Tord?

"I knew something was going on when he returned!"

"We need to get back to the house. Now!" and so we ran.

As we made it home, Tom kicked down his, now Tord's, bedroom door as we both glared at him. We both see he was in some kind of lab. "Ah! Tom! (Y/N)!" he said in shock before he talked in an annoyed tone. "What are you two doing here?"

"We were going to ask you the same thing!" Tom said as he pulled up the poster

"Why are you here?!" I demanded as I pointed to his picture.

He put his hands up "Okay, you got me." He said as he walked toward a big red button "I only came back to get something I left behind..."

"Left behind what?!" Tom and I asked

"This!" Tord pressed the button. Sirens blared loudly as something came out of the ceiling. Tom put his arm in front of me and pushed me back slightly. Tom is like a protective, maybe overly protective, brother to me. We would do anything to protect each other.

The box thing went over Tord's head as his army hat popped out. "My hat!" Tord said with a cheerful smile.

"Oh..." We said, not expecting that to happen.

"Why? What did you think I was going to do?"

"We...Errm..." We didn't want to tell him we thought he was going to kill us. That would be embarrassing!
