Previously:"But luther, We have to find the others and fast! The world ends in 10 days.....and we have no clue how to put a stop to it", i wept.
"I don't give a shit", Luther snarled through gritted teeth.

Luther began to walk away from us, his body dissolving into the crowd, as he headed towards the bar. Me and Five stood up swiftly, bounding through the thick crowds, with Five attempting to grab my hand (but failing). We followed Luther as we were close behind him. Luther became clearer to us as we became in close proximity. He leaned his body against the bar, which was covered with crumbs and beer circles, as he picked up a half-empty beer glass. Five and I stood next to each other, both our elbows on the bar as my hands propped my head up, Luther's hulk-like body towered beside us.
"Luther! What the fuck is wrong with you? We just told you the world's gonna ends again in 10 days", Five spat.
"Yeah...lets be honest here, you're always saying that", Luther sighed in frustration.
"Well, so far, We've been right", I growled.
"Look", Luther began. "If both of you want to save the world so bad, then just do it, I've already got a job far more important than that 'saving the world' shit!"
"Hold on a second! You work in this dump?", Five hissed.
"Yes I do! Well...my boss owns the place. Anyways, I'm his body man", Luther spoke proudly as he put his hands on his hips, then stood up straight, smiling slightly.
"Pfffff", I scoffed as I broke out into a hysterical laughter. "Five, i bet that's like a personal masseuse!". At this point my stomach was starting to hurt from my cackling, my arms were wrapped around my abdomen.
"I knew this would happen, Look, both of you can mock me all you want, but I take very good care of Mr Ruby!", Luther snapped.
"Wait...", Five paused as he took a hissing intake of breath. "Ruby!? The Jack Ruby".
"Isn't that the gangster who shot Oswald?", I whispered to Five.
"Yeah, the one and only", Five announced loudly, shoving his hands in his pockets, as he cocked his head round to look up at Luther again. Five's scowl was only growing.
"Well I guess after all these years, that monkey DNA has finally spread to ur brain, and probably taken over your mind", I said playfully, as Five sniggered at my response.
"Hey, you two need to watch it! Trust me, Jack's a very good friend"
"Luther, you're Number One. νούμερο ένα. Remember?", Five said sternly as he stood up from his bar stool.
"There is no Number One....Not anymore anyways, Not here in 1963, this is a fresh start for me",Luther sighed. "Look, I've been stranded here alone for a year, what did you expect?", he added, making me roll my eyes and bite my inner cheek in frustration.
"Look Luther, we understand, got it? You watched Vanya kill Pogo, the world vaporised, then we dumped your big gorilla ass in the wrong timeline. But we're very sorry, okay?, i snarled through gritted teeth, my back teeth grinding together.
"The umbrella academy needs you, Luther! We're asking for your help", Five calmly begged.
Luther stood there, staring blankly at us, blinking every couple of seconds. He let out a large sigh, as he rubbed the corners of his face with his fingers. "It doesn't need me. It never did, alright"
