Just a quick author's note: This is a humanstuck AU that I hope you all enjoy! I'm really excited to post this, so please R&R! ENJOY!
Tavros Nitram was twelve years old when his accident happened. It was a normal day and, as usual, Tavros was alone. He was outside in the field, quietly twirling some grass around his fingers, and looking slightly forlorn.
"What are you doing?" a voice asked from behind him.
Tavros jumped, "I-I...uh..."
"You look bored," a girl with long black hair said, "Want to play a game with me?" her blue eyes flashed as she looked at him mischeviously.
The boy blinked, not sure as to what he should make of all of this, "Uh...s-s-sure?"
"C'mon, I know a really fun game. My name's Vriska by the way," the girl said, holding a hand out to help him up.
"I'm T-t-tavros," he stood up and followed Vriska to the edge of the sidewalk, "W-what are we doing?"
"We're playing a game of chicken," Vriska said, tossing her hair over her shoulder, "You go stand in the road and when a car comes wait until the last second to jump out of the way."
Tavros hesitated, "This doesn't seem like a g-good idea..."
Suddenly, hands were shoved into his back forcefully, "Go!"
Not being the most graceful child in the world, Tavros fell into the road, and groaned. He turned his head slightly, saw the flash of a dark purple truck, then a sharp pain went through his upper torso, and everything turned black.
~~In the hospital~~
"I'm afraid you'll never walk again," the doctor said gently.
Tavros had been awake for only ten minutes. Ten minutes. That's all it took for his entire life to fall apart. He clenched his eyes shut, but couldn't stop the tears, and began to sob. No longer would he be able to run or jump or play like a normal kid. He would be a freak. In a wheelchair.
A gentle hand patted his back and Tavros knew that his older brother, Rufioh, was doing his best to help the child cope. Tavros hid his face in his hands and his shoulders heaved as he emptied himself of tears. After a few more minutes he was completely empty of anything and just laid down in the hospital bed. Rufioh still sat next to the bed, but didn't interact with his brother at all. Tavros realized that this was going to cost a lot of money; something they didn't have.
"I-I-I'm s-s-sorry Rufioh," Tavros choked out.
Rufioh sighed and rubbed his forehead, "I just don't understand what possesed you to do that."
Tavros flinched, "I-I w-w-was j-j-j-just trying t-t-to play w-w-with someone."
"Tavros there was no one there!" Rufioh snapped suddenly.
His eyes watered again and he turned away from his brother. Vriska had left him in the middle of the road, after he had been run over by a truck, and no one would believe him if he told the truth. Tavros closed his eyes, wanting to shut out everything in reality, but failed as the scene before he had gotten run over flashed over his eyelids. Purple. Horn. Pain. Black.
Sadstuck in the beginning :( Poor Tav. But yeah...this is my Gamtav story that I've been working on for a while. I should have a few more chapters up in a bit. In the meantime R&R! ^^
