"Dad" she breathed with her hands in the shaking table. Her dad swallowed and stood up as a panic surged through him to act. "Frances follow me and don't you dare stop." He raised his voice.
They had ran, Frances following her dad and they ran into Klaus and Pogo. "Are those explosions coming from?" Klaus whipped his hand around to Pogo as he placed a caring, panicked hand on Frances' shoulder.
"Vanya!" Luther answered as he came into the room with Allison reluctantly behind him.
"We need to get to safety outside of the academy!" Pogo directed.
Diego had an arm around Frances.
Diego and Frances both stepped back then ran as Luther directed them to get mom too.
Klaus followed them. It sounded like thunder, the sound of the academy shaking.
"MOM?" Diego, Frances, amd Klaus ran frantically away from crumbling wall and brick, Frances under her dad wing like a bird and Klaus following close by. "You really think Vanya would do this?" Frances cried. Her question was one that really didn't need an answer but her dad provided her with one, "I don't know." Is all he said.
They ran a quick turn into the hall, and a piece of ceiling fell on Klaus' head.

"Klaus!" Frances moved from her dad and pulled his arm up, distancing herself from the breaking ceiling another fell on her dad knocking them both down. She shook them and they both attempted to stand. Frances shook more frantically in panic, "get up now! Now!" Diego tried to look up but was hurt too bad, but Klaus did look up and also tried to shake Diego. Frances had tried to pull them with no success, but it seemed as if a power had pulled them away from the huge chunk that fell. And that power most definitely wasn't Frances. Frances stood up and brushed off her pants and coughed up the dust, and so did her uncle and dad.

This time Klaus helped Diego stand and run to safety, Frances keeping watch for danger as she followed.

The trio made their way into an alleyway next to their house away from the skeleton of the building. Frances looked up at the academy, breathless from the running. "Hey you just saved my life man." Diego coughed and chuckled at his brother. "Okay great." Klaus replied with a sigh of relief. "Dad!" Frances interrupted, "mom!" Klaus concluded. "Mom." Diego said. She was staring down at her screaming sons, and terrified granddaughter. She just waved as the building was preparing to just be ash and stone. Diego ran into the exploding building in attempt to save his mom, and Frances and Klaus ran after him. Diego had layed upon the stone and fire, flipping bricks. Frances watched her dad struggling, she didn't know what to do.

"Klaus, Frances come here and hell me search." He demanded.
"Diego- stop no" Klaus pulled his arm.
"Stop no! What are you doing?"
"Stop! Stop." He pulled him up.
"She's gone, she's-"
"What do you wanna— wanna w w w walk away from this?"
"No."
"What about Pogo?"
"He didn't make it." Luther joined in.
"Are you saying Vanya-" Frances asked immediately.
"Yes, Vanya killed him."
"Vanya wouldn't." Diego spoke.
"I saw it, just before we got out,"
"Nah uh nope." Diego refused.

Five ran over to the, through the rubble with a paper.
"Guys, this is it. The apocalypse is still on. The world ends today."
"I thought you said it was over?" Luther spoke.
"I was wrong ok? This newspaper, I found it the day I got stuck in the future, the headline hasn't changed."
"No that doesn't mean anything." Diego denied.
"You're not listening to me, when I found it I assumed this place came down with everything else. But here we are, the moon is still shining the earth is in one piece, but not the academy."
"Who cares." Klaus grabbed the paper.

"Then your aren't listening to me, Vanya destroys the Academy before the apocalypse. I though Harold Jenkins was the cause but he is the fuse.. Vanya is the bomb! Vanya causes the apocalypse."

"We have to find her." Luther said.
Lights and helicopters flew over. Frances, shielding her eyes said "we have to leave right now."
"Regroup at the superstar, let's go." Luther said.
Frances followed her dad.
—————
"Everyone needs to prepare." Luther spoke.
"For what?!" Diego questioned,
"To do whatever it takes to stop Vanya." Allison struck him on the chest with paper.
"We may not have a choice Allison!"
"Bullshit." Frances and Diego said at the same time, they turned to look at eachother with squinted brows. France turned to look at Luther, "follow your own words Luther." Diego added, "there's always another choice."
"Yeah like what?" Five said looking at Diego. "I don't know." Frances rolled her eyes with a small smile she bit back.
"Look whatever we decide we need to find Vanya and fast, she could be anywhere." Luther added.
"Or here." Klaus held up a paper.

"That's right, her concerts tonight."
"Hello-" a woman interrupted
"-my manager says if you're not gonna bowl, you gotta leave."
She walked off.
"Whose turn is it?" Diego called.
"Oh for-" Luther complained and threw a bowling ball and ironically hit a strike. Frances booed him.
She's our sister
Allison wrote on paper and showed it to Luther.
"We are the only ones capable of stopping this thing." Luther answered.
"What about me?" Frances interrupted.
The siblings all looked at eachother and didn't say anything.
"....we have a responsibility to dad." Luther continued.
"To dad?!" Diego turned immediately.
"He sacrificed everything to bring us back together." Luther defended
"I'm with Luther in this one." Five joined.

"- we cant give her a chance. There are billions of lives at stake, we are past just trying to save one."

"Hey you know guys.. uh I think maybe I could be of help." Klaus joined,
"Now is not the time-" Luther fussed.
"No, let him finish, he save my life today."
"Is that true?"
"Yeah, yeah I did take credit for it but I fact the real hero was Ben."
