“It’s a good thing you had a second time travel device,Red.”“It’s always good to have a back up Thomas, you should know that, should you not?”“I suppose I should Red, but I don’t do I? I don’t work on whatever things you and your silly science and engineering crew is tinkering with.”Okay, Maybe Tom got him there but come on, you can’t blame Red for tinkering with things can you? If you had a whole ass science/engineering crew wouldn’t you tinker with things?“Whatever focus on the mission, Thomas. Get Edd back into the future before he can cause any chaos.”~Still no sign of Edd. It was starting to grind Tords gears. He was very impatient and agitated when things don’t get done quickly. Plus, he was getting stares from randos on the streets. He did not like that but I guess it’s the price for having half of your face looking like it’s melted and replacing your flesh arm with a human one.Aside from that they haven’t checked the diner, I think that’s what it’s called anyways. They might as well go there if there’s any luck, they’d find Edd detain him and bring him back.*crash bang wallop(I don’t know) insert lots of shouting*It was faint but Tom and Tord could just make out what it was saying..“I won’t go back to that soda bleak future!”
It was Edd. There was no time to waste. Tord grabbed Toms wrist with an iron grip and dragged him along to the commotion.Everything came to a stop when everyone and I mean everyone turned to look at the new comers.Past Matt was the only one to speak up.“Holy fuck what happened to your face!?”That pissed Tord off. Like really bad he hated his face being talked about.“Matthew, why don’t you ask your dear Thomas? Hm? Or has that incident not happened yet?”Matt just stayed fucking quiet after that.Future Edd spoke panicking.“Tord, you aren’t taking me back to the future! You can’t. I won’t go back to that cola free future! I have to kill my past self! Then we won’t suffer at all! Please Tord! If you still have some sort of heart like your soldiers Paul and Pat!..”Edd can’t speak about Paul and Pat like they personally are suffering about loosing something as stupid as cola?
Please if Tom wasn’t here with him, he would have shot Edd dead on the spot. Not like he wasn’t planning to eventually but he couldn’t due to the fact Tom would flip the table and tear strips off of him for killing someone he so closely cared about.“Thomas, my dear, try to convince Edward here to come back to the future! Would you try for me?” Tord was very persuasive with Tom when he wanted to be.“Ugh, fine. Edd please don’t make this anymore difficult than it has to be, I don’t even want to be in the past, both me and Red had important duties and meetings we had to attend to. If you do come back I’ll persuade Red here to give you a cola supply that may last for a month or 2? If you just come back I can make that happen with a click of my fingers.”Edd sighed.
“Tom, stop with false lies and promises that you and I both know will never happen, no matter how much you do your “persuasive” acts and actions for Tord he won’t do it. So come on we both know he doesn’t even love you! If he had a heart and cared about what you feel, he wouldn’t have asked you to persuade me, make promises that he can’t do. Do you think that power hungry man would stop at anything even if you asked so nicely?!”Tom remained quiet, he didn’t want to deal with the fact that Edd was being irrational about something so stupid! I mean come on! Tord does love him right? Yeah definitely! I mean sometimes even Paul or Pat sometimes even both will come up to Tom and tell him about Tords ramblings of him!“Edward, come on? You make me out to be some type of emotional abuser? I wouldn’t stoop that low if I truly love someone!” Tord was beginning to loose his shit. He had his hand on his holster for that future ray gun tech thing he had.“What the fuck?! Me and that communist bastard date?! Is the future really that fucked up. I hate the fucking bastard with all my guts. I would never date him, ever!”So past Tom was speaking aload of bullshit but he didn’t know that just yet.“Edward, I had enough of your bullshit! Why won’t you just LISTEN! Edward. Jeg vil ikke måtte gjøre dette, men du gir meg ikke noe valg. Hør på den første jævla tidspikken.”Tord ripped the future ray gun out the holster and shot Edd in the arm, he wouldn’t kill him, to valuable. Edd knew better to scream so he kept his mouth shut but as for the past group and Thomas they just stared at Future Edd in panick. Obviously they didn’t know if future rays did any permanent damage or if they could even touch it except Future Thomas who knew exactly what to do.He ran to Edds aid ripping off some of his shirt at the bottom to hold the bleeding of deep brooding blood from pouring out a damaged arm.“Edd, you’ll be alright. We’ll get the medics to patch you up as soon as we get back.”Another gun was pulled out and shot to open a green swirling portal, something out of Rick and morty.Tom held Edd up gently and walked him through presumably to the base or something.Tord walked to the portal with a satisfied grin on his face, just before he walked through fully, he said final words“So long old friends! We will meet again soon.”
