Five and Diego came out of the barn and approached the Handler, Lila, and you. Five froze for a split second when he saw you standing beside Lila and the Handler. What he noticed first were your eyes. They were different.

"Her eyes were different."

Five sighed. 'So the looney-tuned asshole was right.' Diego glanced down at his brother. "You okay?"

Five nodded. "Yeah. Let's get this thing over and bring back (Y/n) to our side."

The Handler chuckled. "I love the smell of that fresh country air, don't you darling?" The Handler asked Lila with a slight nudge.

"Makes me want to vomit," Lila replied in anger.

"What do you want?" Five asked. He and Diego stopped just a few feet away from you, Lila, and the Handler.

"To watch you suffer," Lila answered him with a glare.

Diego furrowed his eyebrows. "What about me?"

Lila turned to him angrily. "You're not even worth my wrath."

"Easy." The Handler warned calmly. "We're here on official business."

Five faced the Handler. "And what business is that?"

The Handler smiled as you started to talk. "Since the Handler is now the head of the Commission, she has decided to eliminate the criminals responsible for the assassination of the former board of directors."

Five turned to you in surprise as his expression fell and he realized what you were talking about. Diego scoffed. "Yeah, right. We didn't kill the board."

"Uh, actually, Diego, that's not entirely accurate." Five cleared his throat as he glanced up at his brother.

"You didn't tell them?" The Handler questioned earning a shrug from Five as an answer. The Handler slightly gasped. "Oh, Five."

"Five, what the hell did you do?" Diego questioned Five.

"What I had to to get my family home." Five answered Diego then faced the Handler. "Until somebody reneged on our deal."

"Somebody wouldn't have reneged if somebody could've met a simple deadline." The Handler argued. "Alas."

Your eyes slightly widened as you looked at the Handler in surprise. And for a split second, your eyes went back to normal.

"You set me up to fail." Five hissed.

"No, you set yourself up to fail, friend. You and your brothers and sisters. Kinda the running theme of your little life, isn't it?" The Handler slightly chuckled.

Diego shook his head in disappointment and turned to his brother. "Dude, I can't believe you killed the board of directors. You have no idea how messed up the Commission is right now."

The Handler's smile disappeared and was replaced with a frown when she heard what Diego has said. "Messed up? Who's saying that?"

"Everybody," Diego answered. "Christ, even the janitors think it's going to shit."

"That's not all he killed," Lila told Diego as she glanced at Five. Diego and Five looked at her in confusion while the Handler gave Lila a warning look and you were glancing at her. "What are you talking about?" Five asked.

"Don't play dumb, you prepubescent piece of shit." Lila hissed.

Lila glared at Five while Five gave her a mocking smirk. The Handler rolled her eyes and took a deep breath while placing her briefcase down. "Enough. The point is, all of you are going to die today, hm?"

"Oh." Diego slightly smiled. "Well, I don't like your chances. Seven of us, three of you."

The Handler stared at Diego for a moment before nodding. "You know, you're right. Let's change that." She snapped her fingers causing thousands of assassins to appear behind you, the Handler, and Lila with briefcases and guns in their grasps.

Diego and Five widened their eyes in surprise as more assassins appeared. Just a few meters away, Klaus, Luther, and Allison saw what happened. Luther gasped. "Oh, my God."

Five glanced at you and you weren't bothered that he could be killed by the assassins behind you. It was your mission after all. To kill Number Five. It always has been.

Diego leaned down to his brother. "So, what do we do now?" He asked.

Five glanced up to Diego. "Well, we got two choices: fight and die now or run and die later. Either way, we're food for worms."

"Preference?"

"Wouldn't mind a few more minutes breathing air through the old windbags."

Diego nodded until he turned his head to the Handler when she spoke. "All right. Let's get this over with, shall we?" She pulled out a red cloth from her pocket and raised it, showing it to Diego and Five.

Diego and Five started running away. "Run!" Five exclaimed. You saw the other Hargreeves siblings in the distance running away as well when they spotted their two brothers sprinting.

The Handler chuckled softly before dropping the cloth. The assassins let out their battle cries and ran towards the Umbrella Academy, shooting their guns right at them. You watched as they miraculously and luckily survive the thousands of bullets.

You, Lila, and the Handler were just watching. Klaus, Luther, and Allison managed to hide and cover from the bullets while Five and Diego continued to run. "We're not gonna make it!" He noticed Five grabbed his shoulder and arm. "What are you doing?"

Five spatial jumped further away from the assassins with Diego. "Five, I think I'm gonna puke."

"No time!" Five yelled. He and Diego hid behind a red tractor, ducking when some bullets pass by. "What now?" Five asked.

"We blink into the house, man!"

"Okay." Five held Diego's knee and tried spatial jumping but he was out of energy. Diego noticed Five struggling to use his powers. "What?"

"Shit, I'm out of fuel." Five sighed in defeat. "I'm too tired."

Diego glanced behind and then loomed at Five. "Go! I'll... I'll cover for you."

Diego stepped out from the tractor, leaving Five. "Diego, what are you—"

"Go!"

Five hesitated but he immediately ran away while Diego pushed his arms out, stopping some of the bullets that were in their way to shoot towards him and Five. Five managed to enter the house for safety and Diego moved the bullets' direction, exploding something in the distance. Five hid under the table and placed his hands above his head to avoid the glass shattering around him.

Vanya flew out from the barn and collected enough sound waves to send a huge energy blast towards the assassins.

Lila, just in time, created a force field to protect herself, you, and The Handler. Thousands of assassins that the Handler brought along to the fight were dead.

Vanya exhaled sharply and the rest of the Hargreeves siblings slowly came out from their hiding places. "It's over." Allison breathed. Diego smiled in relief until he noticed the force field in the distance. Five looked closer in the window while Vanya furrowed her eyebrows in confusion.

"How are they doing that?" Luther asked as his eyes narrowed.

The Handler turned to Lila. "Your turn, dear."

You watched as your adoptive sister floated in the air and her skin turned pale along with her eyes. The Handler was smiling proudly as Lila mimicked Vanya's powers. Five slowly stepped back while Diego's smile disappeared.

"What the hell?" Vanya questioned.

"That's not normal," Diego whispered as he stepped back.

Klaus, Luther, and Allison immediately ran away. Five's eyes widened and quickly ducked. "Shit. Shit." He whispered.

Lila released the same energy blast that Vanya had made and the Hargreeves, except Five, were sent flying away. Vanya hit her back against the barn, Luther landed towards the roof of the house where Five was, Allison landed in a wagon of hay, and Klaus was about to hit the snowy ground.

"Catch me! Catch me! Catch me!" Klaus screamed in panic. "Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow!" He yelled and closed his eyes. But he didn't hit the ground and was miraculously saved by ghosts. Klaus sighed in relief. "Oh, thank God."

Meanwhile, Diego wasn't lucky to land on a wagon of hay or to be saved by some ghost. He landed harshly on the ground and a tractor flew right towards him. His leg suddenly got stuck.

The Handler cackled as Lila powered down and floated back to the ground. "Aah! Well done, darling." She cheered. She turned in the direction where the Hargreeves are. "Let me know when you've killed them all, will you?"

Lila presses her lips into a thin line. "Okay, mum." She walked away, leaving you and the Handler. The Handler turned to you and smiled. "You know what to do." She winked.

You nodded wordlessly before disappearing into thin air using your powers. The Handler picked up her briefcase and slowly walked towards the farm.

Luther groaned painfully as he tried to get up. Five walked towards him. "Luther, are you all right?"

Luther opened his eyes and groaned. "Oh, I think I swallowed my tongue."

Five rolled his eyes and scoffed softly. "Luther, if you swallowed your tongue, you wouldn't be talking, you big moron." Five helped Luther to stand up. "Come on, on your feet."

Luther stood up and Five helped him balance. "Hey, what the hell happened? What was that?"

Five looked back at the field. "She must've redirected Vanya's energy wave."

"Yeah, I know, but how? And (Y/n) didn't even bother helping us."

The chimney bricks started collapsing which caught Five's attention. His eyes widened. "Luther, watch out!" Five pushed Luther away and took the hit.

"Five!" Luther yelled as he removed the bricks to find Five. "Five!"

Lila spatial jumped inside the house to find Luther standing up from the pile of bricks. "What are you?"

Lila shrugged. "Someone who wants to kill your brother."

"Well, that's understandable. Diego can be a lot to handle."

"Yeah, I was talking about Five."

Luther glanced down where Five was. "Him, too." He replied. "But, unfortunately, they're family, so you're shit out of luck." Luther threw a punch towards Lila but she caught his fist with ease. Luther strained. "How is this possible?"

Luther pushed his fists more but Lila didn't budge. "Gotta believe in yourself, big boy." Lila threw Luther out of the house, destroying the house's walls.

Allison spotted Luther crashing down the ground. "Luther!" Allison cried out. "Luther!"

Allison got down beside him and tried to help him up. "Luther, Luther, Luther... are you okay?"

"Oi," Lila called out when she stood just in front of the holed wall. Allison turned around and saw Lila smiled. "Hi."

Allison stood up and faced her while Lila stepped out of the house. Lila approached Allison. "We haven't officially met. I'm Lila." She introduced gleefully.

"Yeah." Allison smiled. "It is so nice to meet you." Her smile disappeared and quickly threw a punch towards Lila's face.

Lila was unbothered but smirked. "Yeah, I like you." Lila quickly kicked Allison's face. Allison faced her. "Is that the best you got?"

The two started fighting, kicking, and punching each other. Five managed to get out from the pile of bricks and groaned in pain. "What the hell." He sat up and pushed the heavy bricks away until he was brought back to the ground.

Five choked out and frantically looked everywhere to see who or what was choking him. He raised his hand up to clutch something and he felt an arm. His eyes widened. "(Y/n)?"

You showed yourself and gripped your hands tighter against Five's neck. "Hello, Number Five."

Five jolted his knee up, hitting your stomach causing you to groan in pain and let go of Five. Five gasped for air and stood up immediately, holding his neck. "(Y/n), for the love of God, snap out of it!"

You stood up and showed your sword made from your powers. Five sighed tiredly. "Come on, that's not fair."

You charged towards him and he immediately spatial jumped, reappearing behind you. He grabbed your shoulder and before you could react, he spatial jumped with you.

Five arrived at the barn with you. He panted heavily and he quickly looked around for you. "(Y/n)?" He asked worriedly. He was suddenly hit by an energy blast from behind. Five looked behind him and saw you with your hands glowing. His eyes widened. "(Y/n), what are you doing?"

"My mission is to kill the person who's responsible for the deaths of the Board of Directors and Atlas Jericho Carmichael." You stated before attacking him but Five quickly spatial jumped.

Five reappeared behind you and kicked you away. "Sorry!" He immediately apologized. You dropped to the ground and glared at him causing him to flinch. "Looks like your mission is to kill me, huh? Some things never change."

He noticed a round device on your nape. Five stretched his hand to remove it but you tackled Five to the ground and lifted your sword up, preparing to kill him. You quickly shoved it down until Five yelled. "(Y/n), wait!"

You stopped, the tip of your energy-sourced sword was just a few inches away from his neck. Five breathed heavily as he stared up at you, his eyes softened, and a smile was formed on his lips. "Vous ai-je manqué, darling?"

Your eyes flickered back to your normal ones as your eyes widened in shock. "And what if I did?"

"Nothing it's just that... I missed you more."

His longing stare finally broke you out from your trance. Five quickly destroyed the device behind your neck to avoid being controlled again by the Handler. You looked around in confusion before looking down at Five. "Five?"

"Hey, love." He slightly chuckled, his hands resting in your thighs. You smiled in return until your eyes rolled back and you collapsed just beside him as your sword faded into dust. Five sat up and took you in his arms, cradling you. "Hey, hey, (Y/n)? (Y/n)!"

"Calm yourself down, Five, she's not yet dead."

Five looked up to see Lila entering the barn with a knife in hand. "My adoptive sister is tougher than she looks."

Five looked down to your unconscious state as Lila sighed. "This isn't gonna be quick. You're going to suffer for what you did."

He scoffed at Lila. "Lady, I got no idea what you're talkin' about."

"Ronnie and Anita Gill," Lila replied, her voice slightly trembling.

Five shrugged and shook his head. "Mean nothing to me."

"1993, East London." Lila continued. "You hog-tied them and you shot them in the head."

Five took a second to realize the people that Lila was talking about as he recalled the events that happened. "The flower merchants." His eyes widened in realization. "They were your parents?"

"And they never did anything to anyone. They didn't deserve to die like that." Lila told Five as tears welled up her eyes.

"You're right, all right?" Five nodded. "I killed them. But I killed a lot of people over the years. It was all just a job. All right? That was never personal."

Lila scoffed. "'Never personal', my ass. Yeah, I've killed. It's always, always personal."

Five shook his head. "That's why you're not cut out to be an assassin."

Lila walked closer with her knife towards Five, threatening him. "Bet your life on that?"

Five moved back with you as he raised his hand up in defense. "Hang on! Before you even lay that butter knife on my skin, you wanna blame someone? Blame the Handler, alright? She faked the kill order."

"Bullshit. I saw the kill order." Lila argued. "A.J. Carmichael ordered it, and you carried it out."

"Lila, listen to what I'm telling you, alright? The Handler gave me the kill order. She came on the job, which she'd never done before. You're Commission. You know execs never go on jobs, but that day in London, she was there. Ask yourself why." Five explained.

"Stop trying to muddy the waters." Lila hissed.

Five looked down in realization. "I never realized what she was up to at the time, but... now it all makes sense."

"What?"

"She never cared about your parents. She was looking for you."

"Why?" Lila whispered.

"'Cause, you're one of us." Five looked at the person who talked while Lila turned around to see Diego coming to the barn with the rest of his siblings. "The Handler stole you, Lila. Just like our asshole father took all of us."

Lila shook her head. "No. It's not the same thing."

"You're right. Because he didn't have our parents murdered." Diego replied. "Listen to me, Lila. You were born October 1, 1989, the same day as all of us."

Lila noticed everyone stepping closer to her except for Five since he was still holding you. "Stay back!" Lila yelled.

"Hey!" Diego exclaimed. "Hey, stop! Wait. Lila, stop."

"I trusted you. I got you a job, I even introduced you to my mother, and then you took off on me."

"Because I needed to save the world!"

You slowly woke up and saw Five looking down at you. He brushed your hair away from your face and smiled. "Hello."

You weakly smiled back. "Hi."

Diego sighed. "The Handler's using you, Lila."

"You're wrong." Lila shook her head. "She raised me."

"She raised you because she wanted how powerful you are." You told her, standing up beside Five. "She didn't care about you and me. With you by her side, she feels powerful because she has an ally with powers."

"She loves me!" Lila exclaimed and turned to you. "She loves us for God's sake!"

"Yeah, you know what?" Luther asked causing Lila and you to turn to him. "Love shouldn't have to hurt this much."

You and Lila stared at him for a while until Lila opened her mouth, pretending to vomit. Luther's smile faded. "All right. I tried."

"He's right. We have to kill her." Five replied as he prepared to attack Lila until you stopped him. "No, Five!" You held his arm and looked at him. "I got this." You turned to Lila and stepped forward. "Lila..."

"Stay the hell away from me, traitor." Lila hissed. "You were supposed to be in my side!"

"Look, I know how you feel." You reassured. "Believe me, I didn't want to believe that the Handler lied. I didn't really have anyone to relate to nor a shoulder to cry on."

Five stared at you as you continued to calm Lila down. "But Lila, you got me, okay? Look, we may not be sisters by blood but we both know we see each other as sisters whether we like it or not. You told me the truth about A.J. meaning you still care about me."

You glanced to the Hargreeves siblings and smiled. "And now, if you could just calm down and listen, we can be a family." You turned to Diego. "Right?"

Diego nodded and smiled back at you. He looked back at Lila to catch her attention again. "Hey, Lila. The truth? The Handler's dangerous. And you're scared of what she'll do with all that new power. That's why you dragged me to the Commission. Because I know what it's like to love dangerous people."

You turned around to see Five who was already staring at you. He gave you a faint smile making you smiled back. His pinky finger slightly reaching out for yours to hold.

"Difference is..." Diego looked around at his siblings and smiled. "...they love me back."

Lila quickly shot her knife up threateningly to Diego. "Shut up."

"The only thing the Handler loves is power, Lila." You spoke up. "We both know that."

Diego nodded. "Now, the minute she can't use you, she will turn on you, and deep down, I know you know that."

Lila shook her head. "You don't know me, Diego." She glanced towards you. "And neither do you."

Diego stepped closer to Lila and stared down at her as her knife was slightly poking on his chest. Lila slightly lowered her knife down. "Don't I?" Diego asked. Lila's eyes welled up in tears. "I know that we can be your family... if you just let us."

Lila sniffed as she looked at every one, unsure about the idea. You stepped closer to her and held her hand, gesturing her to drop the knife. "I got you, Lila. You'll always be my shitty sister."

Suddenly, gunfire was heard. The Hargreeves were shot down to the ground. You and Lila exchanged looks and ducked in cover until you both saw the Handler with a gun in hand. She stepped inside the barn while Lila crouched down to Diego's side and you went to Five.

"Five?" You asked as you lightly shook him. Five coughed up blood and looked at you. You smiled in relief until you started panicking. "Five, stay with me, okay? Stay with me." You caressed his cheek and tears started falling down. "I got you, darling."

Your eyes widened when the Handler shot Lila coldly and emotionlessly. The Handler turned to you and smiled. "Hello, darling."

Your hand summoned a made-up dagger from your powers. "You killed her. You killed my sister!"

The Handler rolled her eyes. "Oh, please, she's just your adoptive sister."

"Lila and the Hargreeves are all I have." You glanced down at Five before glaring at the Handler, clutching your fingers to your dagger. "And you just killed them."

You flew towards her and managed to stab her gut but you also ended up being shot. The Handler pushed you away from her as your dagger disappeared and you fell right next to Five. You looked down at your wounded stomach and laid your head down, groaning in pain.

Five reached his hand out to you slowly as he saw you coughing up blood. "(Y-Y/n)..."

You turned to him and smiled. "I'll see you... when I see you... darling." You slowly closed your eyes and stopped breathing. Five clutched his eyes shut as a tear rolled down from his eye.

The Handler groaned in pain from the stab wound you made on her. She approached Five and noticed him still breathing. "Oh, good." She commented. "You're still alive. Lucky you. You got to see how this all played out."

The Handler aimed her gun at Five until someone shot the Handler first. Five gasped in surprise while the Handler turned around to see Axel with a gun, aiming it at her. He shot the Handler multiple times, finally ending her life.

Axel approached the Handler's dead body, looking down at her until he spotted Five who was still struggling to stay alive. Axel aimed his gun at him, ready to kill Five.

"This doesn't have to be the end. We use my ability to time travel." Five remembered his own words back in 2019.

"You're the genius who said we should jump. Right? You're the one who got us stuck here." Luther's words rang in his mind.

"Maybe your appetite is disproportionate to the size of your abilities. Start small. Seconds, not decades." And finally, he remembered Reginald's advice.

Five started using his powers, blue aura surrounded his fists as he watched everyone who was dead being back and alive again. He focused on going back in time for just a few seconds and got up, slowly running to turn back time.

Everything was back just a few minutes ago. Five looked around and looked down at his body to see him with no bullet wounds.

"I know that we can be your family... if you just let us."

Lila sniffed as she looked at every one, unsure about Diego's idea. You stepped closer to her and held her hand, gesturing her to drop the knife. "I got you, Lila. You'll always be my shitty sister."

You looked away from Lila when you noticed Five by the entrance instead of being behind you. "Five?"

Suddenly, the Handler appeared to shoot everyone but Five immediately stopped her by taking the gun, disarming her, pointing it towards her. The Handler raised her hands in surrender while Five's siblings jumped in surprise.

"It's true, isn't it?" Lila asked the Handler. "What Five said."

When the Handler didn't answer and sent a death glare towards Five, Lila got frustrated. "Answer me! Is it true?"

"Well—"

The Handler was about to answer but Axel came in and fired his gun at the Handler, shooting her and ending her life instantly. The Handler fell to the ground, blood spilling out from her mouth. Lila gasped, her tears rolling down from her eyes. You stood beside her and massaged her shoulder, comforting her while the Hargreeves siblings were left shock and stunned by what happened.

Lila spotted the briefcase and quickly tore herself away from you, running after the briefcase. "The case!" Luther yelled and started chasing after Lila but Diego stopped him.

Diego blocking his brother's way causing Luther to tackle Diego instead of Lila. Lila glanced at Diego and you. You shook your head. "Lila, please..."

Lila stared at you for a moment before using the briefcase to get out of the barn and possibly hop into a different year and place.

You sighed in defeat while Five faced Axel, pointing the gun towards him. You noticed Five slowly lowering the gun down until dropped it. "Enough."

Axel looked around before nodding and lowering his gun as well. "Tillräckligt." Axel dropped his gun before walking out of the barn.

Luther looked down at Diego who was still below him. "I almost had her. Why the hell did you stop me?" He questioned.

"Because..." Diego looked up at Luther and smiled. "I love her."

Luther and Diego stood up but before Diego could even fully stand, he noticed a bracelet on the ground that Lila had left. It was the same bracelet that Diego made back at the mental institution where he and Lila first met.

Klaus gasped in disbelief as he raised his arms. "Who the hell was that guy?" He asked in bewilderment.

°•○●○•°

You, Diego, and Five approached Herb and Dot who arrived at the farm. "Herb. Dot." Five greeted.

Herb chuckled. "Hey."

Dot smiled. "Hi."

"Sup, Herbie?" Diego walked towards Herb and the two did their handshake making your eyebrows raised in surprise. "Hey! My man." Herb greeted gleefully.

"All good?"

"Good to see you guys." You told Herb and Dot. Herb turned to you and smiled. "Glad that you're back, Agent Red."

You shook your head. "Please, Herb. Just call me (Y/n). I'm no longer part of the Commission anyway."

Herb nodded. "Ah, yes. Alright then..." Herb grinned. "...(Y/n)." He turned to the Hargreeves brothers and sighed. "I can't believe it. Is she...?"

"Really dead this time?" Five asked, making sure if that was what Herb was going to ask. Diego nodded, answering the question. "Oh, yeah."

"Now that the Handler's gone..." You said. "...what happens at the Commission?" You questioned.

Herb struggled to answer but Dot looked down at him, encouraging him. "Just tell them."

"Eh—well..." Herb cleared his throat. "We need to elect a new board of directors. But, until then, I, um..." Herb sheepishly smiled. "I've been voted in as acting chairperson."

Dot squeaked softly and clapped her hands, cheering her friend. Diego grinned. "No shit. Congrats, Herbie. That's huge."

"You deserve it, Herb." You smiled and tucked your hands into your pockets.

Herb chuckled. "I'm so goddamn nervous."

Five smiled. "You'll do fine."

"Oh, thank you."

Five sighed as he glanced down at Herb's briefcase. "Herb, we need a favor."

Herb nodded. "Oh, sure, anything."

"A briefcase. Get back home..." Five looked up to Diego before looking at you who was still staring down at Herb. "...where we belong."

Herb and Dot looked around to see hundreds, if not, thousands of briefcases laying around the field. Herb stretched his arm out, showing you, Five, and Diego your options. "Take your pick."

After taking a briefcase, Five looked around for you while Diego continued to talk to Herb and Dot. He saw you picking up a briefcase from a dead assassin's body. The boy approached you. "We won't be needing two briefcases to get back to 2019. One's enough."

Your fingers wrapped around the briefcase's handle, gripping it tightly, and you sighed heavily. Turning around, you smiled sadly at him. "I'm not going."

Five shook his head and took your hand. "(Y/n), we talked about this. I am not leaving you here in 1963."

You set the briefcase down and placed your hands on his shoulders. "I'm not coming with you nor am I staying."

Confusion filled Five's face. "What?"

"I have to find Lila." You replied. "I have to find her and bring her back to 2019. I can't leave her out there all alone."

"But..." Five sighed as he set his briefcase down as well. "What if something bad happens to you? How am I going to know where you are and see you? I mean, I can time-travel anytime just to look for you and—"

You grabbed his blazer, pulling him towards you, and shutting him up by kissing his lips. Five's eyes widened and didn't have enough time to kiss back because you pulled away. "I can take care of myself, Hargreeves." You smirked and took your briefcase again. "Once I find Lila, I'll find my way back to you, I promise."

Five blinked his eyes in surprise before taking his briefcase in his hand. "You better."

You turned to leave but Five grabbed your hand and pulled you towards him, hugging you. You hesitated to wrap your arms around him but you hugged him, burying your face into his neck. Five sighed. "When you come back... will you learn to love me?"

You clutched your fists and lowered your head down. "No, Five. Not learn. Because I already did." You pulled away and smiled. "But I'll be sure to be brave enough."

°•○●○•°

Five carried a briefcase he took and pushed some buttons on the briefcase. He looked around at everyone who formed a circle. "Everyone ready?"

"Let's do it, yeah," Luther replied.

"Okay." Everyone held hands and Five prepared to use the briefcase. "All right."

"Wait!" Klaus exclaimed causing his siblings to turn and stare at him. Klaus smiled in relief before immediately walking towards a hat that was resting by the banister outside of Sissy's destroyed home.

Diego rolled his eyes and leaned down towards Five's ear. "Fifty bucks if we leave him here." He whispered.

Klaus returned back to the circle, fixing his hat, and nodded. He held Vanya's hand and everyone held hands again while Diego and Allison held onto Five's shoulders. Five looked around and glanced at the field before switching the briefcase on as electricity came out from the briefcase. Blue light surrounded the Hargreeves and finally, they were gone and out of 1963.
