T'was late on a Thursday. Edd and Matt are fast asleep, and Tord is sitting on the curb with nothing but his thoughts, a gun in his hoodie, and a dim lamppost. It's almost midnight. It's almost morning. And Tom hasn't been seen since three o' clock. [What I mean by "light" is that it's not straight to the point shipping, it takes a little while to happen. | An AU of sorts where the events of The End haven't happened yet. Tord isn't sure whether or not he wants to carry through with his plan of world domination. | TW for alcohol use, drug mention, violence/blood, and swearing.]

there's a murderer in town 👀👀 and this murderer, fires exactly four bullets during this timeline of events (hence the title). On a night where all four boys are trying to stay safe from the attacks, Tom is sent to a bar to go fetch a drunk Tord, but things go slightly downhill from there. ((The introduction has the important introduction stuff tbh)) note; the chapter names are 1 - 5 in French for anyone who doesn't know. [AU Situation; the same old same old; tord didn't ever leave, and the boys live at separate flats. | TW for swearing, death threats, suicide, and gun violence. ]

this is the story about how I became friends with the smartest kid in school. the story about why he was so smart. the story about how he took over the world, and made me his second in command. how my friends died trying to overthrow him. and, y'know... everything in between. it's.. lengthy, but that's only because I remember every last detail like it was yesterday (and the present events are just as explanatory), even though this happened over the span of five years. [AU Situation: It's similar to a highschool au but it's also an au where tord succeeds at taking over the world. all of this is in tom's POV. | TW for swearing, a bit of nsfw (there's a warning), a bit of blood, and communism™.]

Tom can't take this anymore, can he? He's losing his mind thinking about it. Thinking about him. Him. Him him him him. What was his name? Oh right, how can Tom forget? He could never forget what he had done to Tord Larsin, the Red Leader.
