Entering the lobby, Inanna wished that she had stuck around on the seventh floor for a while longer as she quickly realised that she was the third one back, Reginald Hargreeves being the first — he was stood by the hotel doors, with his back turned towards the elevator, reading the information that was scribbled down in his notebook — and Anna, who was sat on the stairs, being the second. Though, the closer she got to the receptionist desk, Inanna noticed Klaus laying barely conscious on the floor.

"Klaus!" Inanna whisper shouted his name, abandoning her plan to stay quiet until the others returned, as she ran over to Klaus who had been killed on the other side of the hotel, yet had somehow found his way to the strange and ever changing hotel.

Inanna crouched next to his head and turned his head towards her. "Hey" Inanna repeatedly patted his cheek trying to wake him. "Klaus-".

Klaus's eye peeled open slowly "Please stop" Klaus spoke groggily as he placed his hand over Inanna's which was sat on his cheek.

A small smile grew on Inanna's lips. "You're alive" Inanna mumbled. He was immortal, Inanna had known that, but that didn't explain how Klaus had made it to the hotel, not after being Kugelblitz.

Klaus shook his head, "No, we're dead" Klaus opened both his eyes, watching the smile fall from Inanna's face as one cracked on his. "I'm kidding..." Inanna glared at Klaus and pulled her hand from his. "I'm sorry, I had to".

Klaus chuckled quietly as Inanna stood up, extending her uninjured hand out to him and the elevator opened with a ding, revealing Lila and Viktor who had found each other after being separated from Diego and Allison.

"Oh my God, Klaus" Viktor shouted running over to Klaus and Inanna while Lila went to Diego at the bottom of the stairs after he called her name. "Are you okay?" Viktor asked.

Viktor took hold of Klaus's left arm, helping Inanna pull him to his feet. "How'd you get out?" Viktor asked.

"Klaus!" Inanna turned her head towards Allison as she called her brother's name and ran over to them. Just as surprised as the others to see him alive.

Allison grabbed Klaus's right arm, helping Inanna and Viktor — more so Viktor as Inanna struggled to help — pull Klaus to his feet. "We thought you died" Allison said.

Klaus groaned as he stood up. "If only" Klaus muttered. "Hey" Klaus mumbled.

"Hey, you okay?" Allison asked.

"Yeah, I think so".

Inanna let go of Klaus's hand and Allison gripped his arm tighter, holding him up as Five exited the same lift Inanna had exited with Sloane and Ben next to and behind him.

Five spotted Inanna almost instantly, firstly noticing Lila and Diego who were stood closer to them, and felt the sick twisted knots in his stomach unwind themselves.

Five's smile mirrored Inanna's as he untucked his hands from his pockets and Inanna left Klaus's side to hug Five. Five had wanted to blink over to Inanna, but decided against it, incase he ended up accidentally hurting her.

Inanna hooked her arm over Five's shoulder, placing her hand on the back of his head as he leaned his forehead against hers and wrapped his arm around her waist, pulling her into his chest.

"Hi" Inanna's voice was soft. The greeting being the only word she could force from her throat as her thoughts stumbled and tripped over each other. Though they had only been separated for a few minutes, those passing minutes seemed like a lifetime, especially for Five who had been worried that something worse would happen to his wife.

Five's smile only grew larger, tugging at the cut on his cheek which would bruise in the coming days. "Hi" Five responded as he cupped Inanna's face and pressed a kiss against her temple, letting his fear of losing her again dissolve now that she was in his arms and no more harmed than she had been.

Inanna slipped her hand into Five's as she turned to walk next to him, keeping her arm pressed against his while they followed Sloane and Ben who had gone to Klaus and the others.

"You look like hell" Viktor said to Five before flicking his eyes over to Inanna who looked much worse.

"Why don't you try killing a guardian?" Five retorted.

"We just did" Viktor gestured to Lila as Lila joined them with Diego at her side.

"So did we" Ben said.

"Klaus, I thought you were dead" Sloane spoke for everyone, including Anna who had joined them reluctantly.

Five sat his hand on Klaus's shoulder as Klaus nodded. "Yes, yes, I'm alive and amazing, despite Dad's attempts to bash my brains in-" Klaus waved his hands in front of his face, "-but tearful reunions later. What you guys need to know right now is that-" Klaus turned his gaze to Inanna. "Dad killed Luther".

Inanna pulled her bottom lip between her teeth, feeling as if the others were staring at her, although they weren't. Five glanced at his siblings, assessing their silent reactions of shock before squeezing Inanna's hand lightly, encouraging her to speak and reminding her that he believed her.

"It's true" Inanna kept her eyes on Klaus, afraid of the reactions that came from the others. "It wasn't a guardian" Inanna could truly feeling the stares burning into her skin with her confession spilled finally.

"What?" Diego was the first to speak with a shake of his head.

"Reginald killed Luther. Murdered-".

"And you let him?" Anna shook her head as she crossed her arms over her chest. Inanna turned her head to look at Anna who already had been told about the deal in the hotel room before Anna disappeared. "And then you didn't say anything? You have powers, it wouldn't have been-".

"He almost killed me" Inanna dropped Five's hand and pointed to her wounded arm.

Anna half shrugged. "And how many times have you threatened to kill Luther?".

Inanna hadn't expected the blame to be put on her by Anna, if anyone, she expected Ben or Viktor to accuse her of Luther's murder.

Inanna scoffed. "I told you in the hotel room" Inanna pointed at Anna. "I told you about the stupid deal he tried to wrap me up in, I told you just about everything before we-".

"How many times?" Anna repeated her question.

Inanna didn't know the answer. She couldn't recall how many times she had threatened Luther's life in the weeks she had known him.

Five wrapped his hand around Inanna's forearm, tugging her back towards him as Anna dropped her arms to her sides. "Inanna didn't kill Luther" Five stated.

Anna rolled her eyes. "And I'm supposed to believe you? The husband?" Anna shook her head as her lips tugged into a smirk and Five glared at her, his stare challenging her to continue.

"You don't have to believe Inanna or Five because Luther told me himself what happened" Klaus nodded at Inanna and Five. "Dad killed him and Luther feared that dad would murder Inanna. He sent me back here to make sure that didn't happen".

"He did?" Inanna's lips turned up into a faint smile as Klaus nodded.

"And he-" Klaus pointed towards Reginald at the end of the lobby. "He locked me out of the tunnel, and he rang that stupid bell!" Klaus shouted extending his arm out to the bell, pointing at it with his finger.

Inanna patted Klaus's back as she and Five stepped around him, being followed by Anna and the others with Five's piercing stare set on their father.

"What's your plan, old man?" Five asked with his arms out to his sides and a tight lipped smile.

"We don't have time for this" Reginald argued.

Sloane stepped ahead of Inanna and Five, stopping in front of Reginald. "You killed Luther!" Sloane shouted to her father.

"I had no choice. You refused to come together as a team" Reginald said darting his eyes across those in front of him. "But it could have been avoided if Inanna had accepted my deal" Reginald held Inanna's gaze, his fingers holding open his notebook in his hand.

Five glared at Reginald, clenching his fist at his side as Reginald hummed with a nod of his head, and Inanna averted her gaze from Reginald to Anna, who had stepped off to the side, standing closer to Reginald than the others.

"Another word to my wife and I'll kill you" Five threatened.

"Careful, Five" Anna tilted her head as Five glanced to her. "You wouldn't want to start something you couldn't finish, right?".

Just as fast as Anna's eyes flickering a threatening orange, Inanna stepped in front of Five, her eyes glowing the same shade as the woman's in front of her.

Anna chuckled as her eyes faded back to their usual blue. "It's adorable how you-" Anna pointed at Inanna. "-think you actually threaten me".

Inanna didn't noticed at first, not earlier when Anna had interrogated her over Luther's death, nor when she had spotted that Anna was alone in the lobby with Reginald, but she noticed it now —Inanna wasn't certain but it added up and she could only assume that while Inanna was fighting a guardian with Five, Sloane and Ben, Anna was sealing a deal with her father.

"What did he offer you?" Inanna grabbed Five's forearm, keeping him behind her as she spoke to Anna.

"What makes you think I would have accepted one?" Anna asked.

Inanna glared at Anna as her hand fell from Five's arm, "You're me!" Inanna argued.

Inanna had thought about accepting Reginald's deal, but she didn't as she had Five and chose him over something which wasn't promised, Anna, however, had lost her Five. She had lost Delaney and Inanna could only imagine that Reginald had offered Anna a chance to be reunited with the woman she loved.

Reginald stepped towards Anna and looked between the two red heads. "Children, please-".

"All of your stupid myths and stories" Ben interrupted Reginald. "There were never seven bells or Norsemen. You brought us here to die!" Ben shouted.

"That's not so" Reginald argued with a shake of his head. "Somewhere in this hotel is the key to resetting the universe. We just need to find the sigil!".

Five glanced down to the floor as Inanna's hand brushed over his forearm again, although Inanna knew he was right behind her, Inanna needed the physical confirmation that he hadn't moved.

"I don't care about your sigil! None of us do" Sloane said to Reginald as Five further examined the floor.

"We barely survived that guardian with his stupid helmet and his sickle!" Diego shouted.

Five fleetingly pressed his hand against Inanna's waist before he stepped away from her, and ran towards the stairs that led up to the balcony.

"The guardian we killed had an axe" Viktor said, looking to Lila who had aided him in killing the guardian.

Sloane turned to look at Viktor. "Ours had a sword".

Lila and Diego glanced to each other. "There's one left" They spoke simultaneously, realising that the guardian which had cut two of Diego's fingers off still lurked around the hotel.

"We have to go after it" Sloane stated.

"Because that worked so well the first time" Ben argued.

Klaus rubbed his head trying to rid himself of the pounding headache "You got any painkillers, or could you just please shut up?" Klaus asked. "Could you keep it down to a dull roar?".

Inanna stepped closer to Klaus as the others went back and forth, arguing over the final guardian, and while Five looked over them from the balcony. Inanna didn't take her place next to Klaus, turning her attention to Five on the balcony and spotting the realisation on his face.

"Hey, I found the sigil!" Five shouted from the balcony. "It's on the-" Five's voice was drowned out by the loud shattering of glass that broke above them as the final guardian fell through the ceiling, throwing one of its many weapons at Five.

Inanna averted her gaze from Five to the guardian while Five cried out in pain as his hand which had been holding the railing of the balcony was sliced clean off. Five fell onto his side and his hand landed on the floor behind him.

The others turned as the guardian landed on its feet in front of them, it's sickle that hung from a chain, held in its hand. Reginald ran behind one of the many pillars, hiding himself from the guardian's view and leaving his children to battle.

The guardian swung its weapon at Klaus, slicing his stomach open. Klaus fell forwards onto the floor, with a sharp pain filled groan. The chain fell from the guardian's hand, and as he grabbed three explosives from his armour, flinging them towards, Allison, Viktor, Lila and Diego, he tore another smaller sickle from his side, throwing it at Inanna.

Inanna fell to the floor with the others as her breath caught in her lungs with the sickle that lodged itself in her chest.

Inanna couldn't move, and though she was still alive, she could feel the blood building up in her throat, pushing her closer to her death. And as her vision slowly dulled, Inanna didn't fight it, even if she wanted to, she couldn't, but she didn't try. It wasn't how she had wanted things to go. Inanna had wanted to die at Five's side, with her hand in his while they reminisced over their life together, but there was only so much she could handle, and she had overstepped her limit.

Ben fell to the floor in front of Anna, who had frozen, her eyes focused on Inanna who lied lifeless, with a trickle of blood that had begun running from her mouth, down her cheek and onto the pattern floor, only then feeling a sense of relief wash over her as the paradox psychosis, which had taken control of her body the day Inanna had arrived in 2019, died out into a light buzz, before completely disappearing with the last beat of Inanna's heart.

Diego stood up, blinking away the smokey tears that had built up along his waterline and the guardian flung an explosive at Anna. The bomb hit the floor by her feet and Anna fell to the floor next to her brother, gasping for air as the smoke filled up her lungs and she grabbed at her throat with her hands.

Diego attacked the guardian, but with nothing but his bare hands and desperately trying to use the guardian's own weapons against it, Diego fell like the others, leaving Sloane as the last one standing.

The guardian turned towards Sloane and it pointed at her with its sickle before stepping over Diego's barely conscious body to kill her.

Sloane's power shone from the palm of her hand as she extended her arm painfully out in front of her, stopping the guardian mid step, with her other hand still holding her wounded side.

The metal of the guardian's armour creaked loudly as Sloane constricted the guardian's movements, and Sloane groaned in agony, gritting her teeth together.

Sloane's power weakened as she strained and struggled against the guardian, but when her power faded from her palm, Luther appeared behind the guardian — being brought back temporarily by Klaus, who laid across the lobby, his hand shining a vibrant blue — grabbing it's arm which held the sickle and stopping it from killing his new wife.

"Nobody hurts my wife, you son of a bitch" Luther spoke to the guardian as it turned its head towards him.

Luther grabbed the guardian by its waist before tossing it over his head. The guardian flew over Inanna and Klaus and landed with a loud thud in the pile of broken glass on the hotel lobby floor.

Luther hugged Sloane, their smiles mirroring one another's as they embraced for what Luther knew would be the last time and Reginald Hargreeves, who was just as shocked as he had been when Klaus returned, stepped out from behind the pillar to face Luther.

"All those years I stayed loyal to you. You wasted my life on the moon, and for what? To use me on this stupid mission?" Luther asked his father.

"You did have a purpose. I left you to guard the most precious thing in the universe" Reginald argued.

"And what was it?" Luther asked, moving his hand from Sloane's shoulder to the back of her head.

"You'll soon understand. You all will" Reginald shouted at his children as they began slowly sitting up with wide eyes, and opened mouths at Luther's return.

"And Inanna? Help us to understand that" Luther didn't look over his shoulder to the red head, knowing that she laid dead behind him as he had stepped passed her to save Sloane from the guardian.

"She had a choice" Reginald argued.

Luther shook his head. "All Inanna wanted was to spend her final moments with the one person who has always loved her, and you took that from her" Reginald casted his eyes down to Inanna briefly before looking back at Luther. "Tell me that you don't see a child who has been fighting her entire life".

Reginald didn't respond but it didn't matter what Reginald thought. Luther knew Inanna didn't deserve to die the way she did, nor be treated as disposable by Reginald Hargreeves, because she wasn't, not to Luther and the others who had grown to love her much more than they had imagined in the weeks they had known her.

Luther pulled away from Sloane, placing his hand on her bruised and cut cheek with a smile on both their faces, but as his body began disappearing, as if he wasn't real, their smiles vanished too.

Luther looked over his shoulder to Klaus, mumbling out his brothers name. "I can't... hold it" Klaus spoke faintly through gritted teeth with a shaky hand.

With little to no time left, Luther turned back to Sloane, placing his arms around her back as she hugged him tightly.

"I will love you forever. Okay?" Luther spoke softly and Sloane nodded as her tears fell down her cheeks, running over the cuts which had been left by the first guardian she had fought with Inanna, Five and Ben.

Sloane closed her eyes, unable to watch Luther disappear from her arms, but when she reopened them to find him gone as Klaus took his final breath — which would not be his last — Sloane wished she had kept her eyes open just to see him for a second longer.

Five leaned against the wall of the balcony, hiding the pain that coursed through his body, with his tie tied around his arm to slow the blood loss the best he could. Five looked down at the others, instantly spotting Inanna's lifeless body, with a pool of blood surrounding her, which grew every second.

"No" Five couldn't utter another word, feeling as if his heart had cracked open once again.

Five had lost Inanna more than once and he had grieved her once. Five was familiar with the hole Inanna left behind when they were apart, however, something about the way Inanna looked oddly at peace with his death made him believe that this time, if he survived, he wouldn't see her again and no amount of hoping would change that but his siblings were still alive and so was the guardian.

"The sigil is in the lobby floor" The others turned to Five, including Anna, who was inhaling and exhaling deeply, once she had managed to catch her breath. "It's the stars!" Five shouted.

"Children, find a star on the sigil. Stand on it!" Reginald order.

Klaus bolted up with a loud gasp as his eyes shot open. Klaus wrapped his arms over his chest and shook his head, trying to rid himself of the cold that chilled his immortal body.

"Ben, now's your time, boy!" Reginald shouted at Ben as he stood up, clutching his stomach and Anna stood up next to him. "Quickly!".

Sloane was first to step onto one of the stars, with a far away expression that casted over her face. Anna went to stand on another, but stopped when Reginald shouted at her.

"Not you, Anna!" Reginald shook his head.

Anna stepped back, allowing Ben to take the star she was going to stand on. Although she was confused, unsure of why her father didn't allow her to complete the sigil, she didn't argue.

"Seven points, seven of us?" Viktor asked as he staggered over to one of the stars. "We're the bells?" Viktor asked.

One after another they stepped on the stars, which lit up underneath their feet as a high pitch, machine like sound whirled around the hotel.

"No!" Reginald shouted at Allison, similarly to how he had with Anna when Allison went to take her place on the last star which was partially covered by Inanna's pool of blood. "Not you".

Five ran down the stairs, holding his severed arm as the guardian stood back up, placing its broken helmet back over its face.

"Hurry!" Reginald shouted looking at the guardian with panic. "It's the only way to stop him!".

Diego and Lila stepped onto a star, neither of them able to look at the red head who lied lifeless in the middle of the sigil.

"Number Five, quickly!" Reginald shouted pointing at the final star.

Allison and Five looked between each other and the final star as the guardian swung its sickle, preparing its attack once again.

Five blinked into the middle of the sigil, stepping into Inanna's blood that painted the last star red. Five screamed with his head tilted up to the ceiling as blue bolts of energy tore through his body and the others, connecting them to each other before it hit the guardian like lightening.

The guardian fell to the floor with a hole burned through its chest and cockroaches ran from its deflating body, scurrying off to the corners of the hotel.

Anna turned on her heel, watching as the hotel that they stood in transformed into a bright golden chamber that resembled the hotel while Five and the others stood on the sigil with their heads titled up, staring at the lights that shone on them. Their suffering gasps, as the machine inflicted pain on them, filled Anna's ears.

Reginald walked passed his children to the only piece of furniture that still stood in what was a hotel moments before; a desk, as a touchable, light blue screen curved over it.

Anna and Allison looked at each other before averting their gaze to Reginald as he pressed random buttons, and keyed in things neither of them understood.

Allison looked back at her siblings, noticing the clear pain that they were all enduring. Reginald had never mentioned that Allison's family would be tortured and she could only assume that Reginald had purposely left that out. "This wasn't part of the deal. You're hurting them" Allison said to Reginald as she pointed at her family.

"I can't stop now" Reginald argued. "It'd shut down the machine" Reginald only briefly glanced to Allison as Anna walked around Sloane and Lila, joining Allison and Reginald at the desk.

"What machine? I don't understand" Allison flickered her gaze to Anna, hoping that she would understand but Anna's confused shrug told Allison that she did not.

"The hotel was just a facade. We're stuck inside a machine in another dimension" Reginald spoke, hoping to clear up the confusion but instead it only made things worse.

"Another what?" Anna's eyes widened as she glanced over her shoulder to Sloane who was struggling just as much as the others.

"Another dimension" Reginald repeated. "Whoever created the universe built this place".

Anna ran her hands through her hair, tugging at the strands. Anna had many questions, all of which she didn't think Reginald would answer before he completed his task, but the main question was, how did he know about the machine? If it was made by whoever had created the universe, Anna wanted to know how her father had stumbled upon that knowledge and 'legends and myths' would not suffice.

"What does any of that have to do with them?" Allison asked.

Reginald pressed a button on the screen and the others screamed out in agony. "The particles inside their bodies are the only things that fuel the machine" Reginald said as the orange particles that had given his children their powers were torn from their bodies.

"He killed Luther" Five's voice was strained as he spoke through his pain to Allison. "He tried to kill Klaus. He's the reason Inanna is dead-" Allison dropped her gaze to Inanna who laid by Five's feet. "He won't stop until we're all dead".

The machine powered up even more and Anna shook her head at Allison, somehow managing to block out the screams of her siblings, silently telling Allison to let Reginald finish what he had started.

Allison ignored her subtle gesture. Realising then how different Anna was from Inanna. Inanna might have been cruel in her ways, Allison had witnessed Inanna's coldness first hand when Inanna had murdered Harlan but Allison knew Inanna had a heart and that if she was alive, Inanna would have stopped Reginald much sooner than Allison.

"Okay, you need to stop!" Allison shouted.

"I'm almost done" Reginald responded. "And when I am, you, Anna and I will get what we came here for".

"No, you're killing them!".

"Everything in life has a price" Reginald spoke with no remorse for his actions.

Allison's eyes glowed the same orange as Inanna and Anna's as she screamed for Reginald to stop, using her new enhanced power to try and stop him, but her power only echoed around the machinery that they stood in, refusing to meet Reginald's ears as it bounced off the screen.

"Allison!" Anna's eyes lit up with the flame that shone in her hand. Allison looked between her family and Anna, unthreatened by her. "I won't let you take this from us".

"He killed Luther and Inanna" Allison pointed to Inanna's body.

Anna shrugged. "That's not my fault. All they had to do was listen like you and I did".

"I didn't wish for this!" Allison pointed towards the others. "And I know you didn't either. You care for Sloane and Ben, don't let him do this".

The flame that hovered above Anna's hand grew in size, growing more fierce. "I didn't plan on you and I fighting" Anna darted her gaze between the flame in her hand to Allison.

"It won't be much of one" Allison narrowed her eyes, watching the flames that ran up Anna's sleeve. The flame twisted round Anna's shoulders before falling down onto her other sleeve.

"Stop breathing" Allison's rumour clouded Anna's brain, her words carrying through the air until they hit the red head's ears while she was focused on showing off her power.

Anna clamped her hands over her throat, for a second time in less than ten minutes, as her eyes glazed over white and her mouth fell open for a gasp of air that refused to entire her lungs.

Allison ran passed Anna as the red head fell to the floor, desperately trying to breathe, with her deep brown eyes trained on the sickle that was still lodged in Inanna's chest.

Allison tore the sickle from Inanna's body, spraying the blood onto Five's suit trousers and onto Inanna's face as she mumbled 'I'm so sorry' to her sister-in-law.

Turning back to Reginald, Allison shifted her hands on the sickle handle, finding the right grip as she closed the space between herself and Reginald again. Allison swung the sickle once she was stood behind him, slicing his head clean in half with the sharp blade.

The machine powered down as Reginald's fingers left buttons, the others fell to the floor, groaning loudly in pain and the sickle fell from Allison's hand as she gasped with shock. Her wide eyes staring at Reginald Hargreeves's robotic like brain and green 'blood' that ran down his head onto his suit. Reginald slowly fell lifeless onto the floor, falling next to Anna who laid moments away from her own torturing and slow death.

Five placed his hand on Inanna's cheek, holding in the grunt of agony that dared to slip passed his lips as he moved closer to his deceased wife. Five leaned down to Inanna and kissed her forehead, unable to stop his tears from falling onto her face as they ran down his own.

Five's bottom lip trembled and his brows furrowed as he took in every little detail of Inanna's face for the last time. Her light freckles, her vibrant blue eyes and every tiny scars that littered her skin like stars in the night sky. "I'll find you" Five whispered his promise, smoothing his thumb over her cheek.

A faint sound coming from the machine that Reginald had been working on, pulled Five's attention from his wife as he closed her emotionless and empty eyes to let her finally rest.

The sound continued as Allison walked over to the red glowing button on the screen. She had no idea what it would do, but she extended her hand out to it anyways, tempted to press it.

"Allison... Allison, don't touch that button" Five called to his sister. "We don't know what it does".

Viktor staggered to his feet and with the last of his energy, he called for Allison to stop as his power shone from his chest. "Don't make me do this!" Viktor shouted.

"Do you trust me?" Allison asked.

Viktor didn't respond but his power died down and Allison smiled. He trusted her. Viktor trusted Allison.

"Viktor, what are you doing?" Five shouted. "Stop her!".

Five and the others, except from Viktor, called for Allison to wait and to not press the button, all of them afraid of what would happen if she did. However, Allison ignored her family and pressed the button...

The elevator dinged before the doors slid open and Viktor led his family out of the small enclosed box, hearing the distant sound of traffic as they entered a small park which was decorated with colourful plants and green trees and bushes.

Lila laughed excitedly. "Cool" She said turning on her heel as she looked around at the park.

Five hurried over to a statute in the middle of the park which resembled his father, only realising when he stood next to it that it was in fact a statue of his father's head with the words 'Obsidian Memorial Park graciously donated by Sir Reginald Hargreeves this 1st Day of October 1989' on a large plaque.

The elevator opened another time, revealing Luther Hargreeves, alive and in his non-modified-half-monkey body.

"Luther?" Viktor's smile grew with joy and he crossed the small park to Luther as Luther questioned if they could see him.

"You can see me?" Luther repeated.

"Yes!" Viktor shouted.

"I'm alive?" Viktor jumped into Luther's arms and tightly wrapped his arms around Luther's neck. "I'm alive!" Luther shouted.

"Luther's alive!" Klaus clapped as he shouted.

Viktor grabbed Luther's arms as Luther placed him back on his feet. "That's not all, big guy" Viktor said looking at Luther's torso and arms.

"Huh?" Luther looked down at his own body as Viktor gestured at his chest.

Luther gasped sharply and he pressed his hands against his chest. "Oh shit! My body!" Luther gasped out his words as he extended his arm out. "I look amazing".

"Luther's all svelte now" Klaus commented.

"Wait. I gotta show Sloane" Luther turned around looking for his wife.

Five lifted his left arm, which had been cut off moments before, up to his face. "I got my arm back" Five said, looking at his arm with much confusion.

"This is so cool. W-wait. Where's Sloane?" Luther asked, unable to find her.

"Oh, she was, uh..." Klaus tried to recall when he had last seen Sloane. "She was right behind me-".

"When Allison hit the bloody button" Lila said.

"She's gone too" Diego didn't bring up Inanna or Anna, all of them knew well enough what had happened to both of them, though that didn't stop Diego from eyeing up the elevator door in hopes that Inanna would come back to life like Luther had.

"You know, I don't know about you guys, but I have not felt this good in years" Klaus spoke as Five walked around the statue in the middle of the park, his curious eyes staring at the city that laid outside of it.

"Does anyone know where the hell we are?" Ben asked.

"The hotel" Lila answered. "Or at least this is where it used to be".

"I think the old man did it" Five turned back to his family as he spoke. "I think he reset the universe".

Five didn't understand it. None of them did.

Diego held up his hand to Lila, showing her his fingers which were no longer missing. "You got your fingers back" Lila laughed as Luther began shouting his wife's name.

"Hey" Luther pointed at Five as he hurried over to him. "I don't care about any resets, all right?" Luther grabbed Five by his suit jacket. "I want my wife back. Where is she, Five?".

"I'm glad you're alive, but take your hand off me" Five responded.

"Not until you give me an answer".

Five raised his brow at his brother. "Okay, screw this" Five went to blink away from Luther, but nothing happened. He couldn't blink. "Something's wrong" Five stated looking around at his siblings.

"That's right something's wrong. You're about to get your ass kicked" Luther said still holding tightly onto Five's jacket.

"Yeah, kick his ass" Diego nodded excitedly.

"No, you moron. My power. I can't blink" Five said to Luther.

Luther let go of Five's suit jacket and Five straightened it out as Diego grabbed one of his knives. Diego spun the knife between his fingers, like he often did, but unlike all the other times, the knife clattered to the ground by his feet.

"That's not good" Diego muttered staring at his knife.

One after another they all tried to use their powers but all of them failed to do so.

Klaus held his hand out in front of himself, not yet realising that he was missing his tattoos on the palm of his hands.

"Alakazam... ghosties" Klaus waved his hand, trying to conjure the dead, but similarly to his brothers, nothing happened. "This means I'm mortal again? Aw man!".

Five pulled up his sleeve, after noticing that Klaus no longer had his tattoos, and like he had expected Five's wrist was bare, with no hint of there ever being an umbrella tattooed on his wrist.

"Wait! Wait! How do we get 'em back, you idiots?" Ben asked.

"Where's Inanna?" Luther asked, his question directed at all of them.

"Luther" Diego shook his head. "You saw what happened to her".

"And?" Luther's eyes widened as he looked to Five who had averted his gaze to the floor, not wanting to talk about his wife. "I died and look at me. Alive!" Luther shouted poking his thumb into his chest. "How many times has she died and come back? Like a million times, okay so-".

"Once" Five interrupted his brother. "She has died once and come back. Every other time was a near death or-".

"Well that's still one more time than most people, Five" Luther subtly glanced to Klaus who had died more times than anyone. "I bet she's going to walk out here any minute and explain-".

"She's dead" The words tasted like poison as they left Five's mouth, but he couldn't stand to listen to Luther being so hopeful. "The Handler killed her at Sissy's farm, the only reason she came back was because I rewinded time and saved her but now..." Five didn't continue, feeling his throat tighten as his eyes glossed over with his salty tears.

It fell silent for a moment between the family, all of them accepting that maybe, like Five said, Inanna was truly dead.

"I gotta... I gotta go find my wife" Luther spoke up.

Luther exited the memorial park through the closest archway as Klaus called after him. "No! Luther, you can't go. You were dead five minutes ago. You're fragile!" Klaus shouted. "I gotta go after him" Klaus said to the others before following Luther.

"No. Wa- Klaus, wait!" Diego shouted.

Ben raised his hand by his head. "I'm out, bitches" Ben shouted.

"Guys, come on" Viktor shouted looking over his shoulder to Ben as Ben exited the park in a different direction to Klaus and Luther. "We should stick together and figure this out-".

"What are we supposed to do?" Diego asked.

"Live our lives?" Lila suggested.

Diego took hold of Lila's hand before leading her out of the park, with only a simple nod being given to Viktor and Five who stood either side of the Reginald Hargreeves statue.

Five and Viktor silently stared at each other, daring the other to say something but as Five turned to leave, heading in the opposite direction to the elevator, no words were shared.

Viktor stared at the statue with hatred in his eyes. "Asshole" Viktor muttered to the statue of his father before he too, like the rest of them left the park.

The memorial park fell silent and empty once Viktor left, like it often stood at night, with only the distant sound of traffic interrupting the peaceful quiet, but in the dimly lit park, late in the evening, the elevator dinged open one last time, revealing the new and reset universe to a young red headed woman.

"What the hell?".




Hi! I'm so sorry it's taken me so unbelievably long to write this last chapter. I was procrastinating it because I didn't want to finish this fic and then have to wait until s4 came out.

Thank you all so much for all the love that you have given Divorce, Inanna, Finanna and my other oc's. Your comments have truly made my days much happier and i'm going to miss them and you all. I love you!!!

But with that being said, I cannot wait until s4 comes out, I have a lot planned for Inanna and Five, including them becoming parents and because I cannot wait any longer (it has literally been eating me alive for weeks), I thought i'd introduce finanna's children...

Ivy Inanna Hope-Hargreeves and Elliot 'Ellio' Fye hope-hargreeves.

Danielle Rose Russell is the only person I can imagine as Ivy but for Ellio i am torn between Dylan Sprayberry (who fits the character) and Mark Mckenna (who looks similar to aidan). The face claims may change when s4 comes out and Ivy and Ellio may also be aged down but this is who i have settled with at the moment.

Anyways, see you all when s4 comes out! Bye for now <3
