Ch. 19

"Yeah, yeah, so you go back to 2019, as planned, but this time with the right math, so you remain a full-grown man." Luther concluded their plan to the two time travelling assassins.

"In exchange, we get that briefcase that you no longer need." He finalized with a smile, which the two only glared at.

"Timeline restored, paradox resolved. Everyone goes on existing happily ever after." Five added, trying to calm himself down.

"That's quite a bit to take in." The older looking Five stated.

Amura tried to act as if she was deep in her thoughts, she shouldn't just accept the latter's offer.

Though all of it is just a distraction, as she was already in hold of the briefcase.

"What do you think?" The younger Five looked at the brunette then at his old looking self.

"I think it was a thorough idea... Five?" She answered, then looked at the old man.

It took a moment for him to answer, shifting on his chair and glaring at his younger-looking self, "I think... I need to piss." He said and left, looking at the woman then at the briefcase.

Silently sending her a message to keep an eye on it.

The three of them looked at him retreat the table, earning a sigh from the brunette.

Luther looked at his brother, who was sweating buckets because of the paradox psychosis, "Oh. Well, besides the flop sweat, I think that went pretty well, am I right?" He asked while wiping the boy's sweat.

He shook his head and tried to remove his hand off of him, but he was distracted, "No, no, there's something... Something doesn't feel right about this."

"What... What do you mean?" The large man asked.

"They don't trust each other." Amura answered, taking a deep breath once again.

"But he's him."

"Exactly." Five said as a matter of fact.

"And he's starting to doubt me too... I mean, I know he will but... I didn't knew it'll be this soon." The woman stated, holding her chin while thinking.

"Do you ever feel guilty lying to Five?" The large Hargreeves gave her a judging look.

"Why would I? I was doing this to save our arse, if I could, I would gladly play with his feelings too." She smirked that earned a glare from the younger Five.

But in reality, she do feel guilty about it.

"Why don't you check on yourself for a moment? You seem so relaxed." The boy sarcastically smiled at her before rolling his eyes.

She gave him a look and leaned forward to whisper to them, "Oh... So me, acting like I never knew the two of you and acting like I never know shit, is so relaxing? I would have you know that I'll be the first he will kill if ever we fail to fool the old man."

She leaned back again and sat properly, using her powers to look at herself.

Apparently, because she was the one who switched her body from her past to time travel, she have the control of her other timeline self's power.

And because her past self don't have a clue on how to do it yet.

"Wait. You can kill her? I thought you lo-"

Five sighed and cut his brother off, "If Amura were to betray me, I will kill myself after I kill her."

Luther just pursed his lips, knowing that his brother is capable of doing that and that the woman was casual about it.
