Tom's POV

Whe... Where am I?

I s.. See shadows? Hello~

The shadow begins to form into two... Two boys?

I blink once or twice more and here a sound ring in my ears. "He's awake!"

I jolt my eyes open at the sudden shout and fall off the surface I was laying on.
I rub my head and groan as I open my eyes.

I see a boy with dark chocolate coloured hair along with dark brown eyes. He wore a green T-shirt with Dark green kevlar sleeves. He had a very cheerful smile and his eyes sparkled like diamonds.

I eyes turned to the boy beside him. He was a ginger, with freckles sprinkled all over his face. He was quite pale but not to the point where he was all white.

He had blue eyes, wore a silver hoodie and had a plaster on his left cheek. He had the same smile as the brunette and was slightly taller.

"W-Who are you...?" I stood up cautiously. "Oh yeah! We forgot to introduce ourselves!" The brunette place a hand on his chest. "I'm Edward Gold. I am eight years old. I like, cats, cola and Matt."

"MY TURN!" The ginger shouted and jumped in front of Edd. Edd giggled and took a few steps back. "I'm Matthew Harvard! I am eight years old. I like Edd and myself. I mean, who wouldn't like this guy~"

He said, obviously referring to himself. "He's a narcissist." I heard a whisper which made me flinch slightly. I was still too shy and confused to respond so I just nodded.

Matt looked at us and frowned. "Am not!" He then put his hand on my chest. "It's your turn."

I gulped and to a deep breath. "I-I'm... Tom. Thomas Ridgewall. I am seven years old, and I like Susan..." I said shyly. Edd tilted his head. "Who's Susan?"

"Oh its my bass! My parents gave it to me-- WAIT WHERE ARE MY PARENTS?!" I suddenly panicked when I realised I didn't know where they were I looked around the room I was in to find them.

"You don't know?" Matt looked at me while rubbing his elbow. "W-what do you mean I don't know." I stuttered, trying to calm myself down.

"They're dead...." Edd said quietly but loud enough for me to hear. "What do you mean by they're dead?!" I felt the panic return to my system.

"Well apparently, when you and your parents were on the way back home. You crossed through an alleyway. And a mugger jumped out of nowhere and pulled out a gun."

"He said that if you didn't give any money he'd pull the trigger. Apparently your father refused which ended up in death. You passed out from too much shock."

My hands clamped over my mouth. I could not believe. They're dead...

They're dead. They're dead. They're dead. They're dead. They're dead. They're dead. They're dead. They're dead. They're dead. They're dead. They're dead.They're dead.They're dead. They're dead. They're dead. They're dead. They're dead. They're dead. They're dead.

They're actually dead...

I walked backwards until I felt a slam. I hit the door. Unable to process what they had told me, I slid down the door. Tears streaming down my black eye sockets.

They ran up to me to comfort me. "I-Its fine. We'll never leave you! Let's be good friends from now on." Edd smiled. Which made me wipe my tears with my sleeves. "T-- *sniff* Thank you *hic*"

They smiled and pulled me into a group hug. "Your things are on they're way so don't fret" Edd reassured. I nodded and squeezed tighter. Never gave I ever made friends this fast before.
