(The cover is not mine, I do not claim it or own it) This story will contain violence, swearing, abuse, and angst. If you do not like any of these things, please do not read the book. To make you aware of what is included, here are the ships in this story: Matt x Matt (of course) Tom x Tord (aggressive, not soft) Paul x Patryk And possibly others. •---------• Once the news of Red Leader returning to the world alive arose, Edd, Matt, and Tom immediately knew that something terrible would happen. The threat of Tord destroying their lifetime of adventures and laughter along with the rest of the world scared them, and nobody was prepared for what happened next. Will this world descending into chaos tear apart the best friends, or will they stick together and fight off this new threat? Read to find out.

Rich, loved, popular, basically the guy of everyone's dreams. Tord Larrsin. Tord Larrsin is the most popular and loved guy in highschool. The guys wish to meet his standards and the girls just wish to be with him. He was great at almost everything. Kind of poor, loner, unpopular, the guy no one had a second thought about. Tom Rosewood. Tom Rosewood is the lonely kid no one really pays any attention to. The type of person to sit in the back of the class and barely say a word all day. But you know what they say. The quietest people have the loudest minds. When Tom and Tord actually cross each other's paths, a lot of things seem to change for the both of them. Including their feelings. Warning: Will probably contain swearing, suicidal/depressing thoughts, and self harm. I also own no art I put into this fanfic.

(oof) Tom is a normal guy hanging with his normal friends. At least, that's what he wants them to believe. Due to his "unique" appearance, he was tested on after his parents died. Unfortunately, one of those tests failed miserably, and now Tom is stuck with a horrid demon in his body, one that only activates if he is afraid. Not being afraid is hard, especially for him. Even though he's gotten better at controlling his fears, he worries for Edd and Matt when they fight. He knows it's because of him. Edd has been more abusive and furious with Tom with each passing day. And it's hard not being afraid when Tord joins the picture. As his childhood bully, it isn't hard to not have fears about him.
