Man On The Moon

"

Oh Jesus!" Grant exclaimed.
Five held up a knife on his throat,
"One chance. That's all you've got. One chance to tell me exactly what's going on in that lab" Five demanded
"I...I manufacture prosthetic devices for fake patients. I bill the insurance company and then sell them for cash on the black market" He stuttered.
"Including the eyeballs?" Daniel spoke Grant pauses.

"Answer him dimwit" Five demanded
"Yeah, they're my biggest seller. I mean they sell like hotcakes,I...I've got a list, a waiting list probably 20 buyers"
"So the serial number I told you"
"Uh, could've already been bought" Five sighs
"Yes, off...off the books"
"I needed that list, Lance. Names and numbers, and I need it now!" I rolled my eyes, this guy is getting boring.
"I dont have it. I mean, not on me. The only copy's in my safe at the lab"
"Well , you better start the car then before he cuts your throat" I adviced Lance.
"Okay"
"Now"
We drove off.

================================

"Like I said, Master Luther, Number Five hasn't lived in this room since he was a boy" Pogo spoke.

"Yeah, I know, but we need to warn him. He doesn't even know we were attacked,And Daniel's with him, He doesnt know they're looking for him," Diego interupted him.
"

What are you doing here?" They both glanced at Diego.
"Uh..Do you know about Mom?" Diego scoffed.
"Well, It looks like you got what you wanted, one way or another, right?"

"Wanna tell me what you're doing here?"
"Looking for Five and Daniel" Diego spat.
"Let me guess, you're gonna save the day" Luther retorted.
"It's what I do. Asshole"
"Really? Last time I checked, you mopped floors" Diego stopped dead in his tracks.
"And what do you do? Sit on the moon for four years, waiting for orders?"
"Boys this wont help us find Five and Eight" Pogo intervened but they ignored.
"Keep on being a loyal soldier after everything our father did to you"
"What? You mean save my life?" Luther reminded
"No, I mean...turn you into a monster"
Luther snapped as he punched a whole on the closet.
"Cant hide it anymore, champ" Diego spat.
"He had a difficult decision to make, and he made it"
"Grow up. Luther. Were not 13 anymore"
"That's what leaders do, by the way"
"He sent you on that mission all alone"
"Almost got you killed"Luther interupted him.
"Yeah  well atleast he was there"
"Where were you? You and the everyone else in this family? You walked out"
"And thank Christ I did, or I would have ended up just like you, let me ask you a question." Diego spoke.
"When you watch one of these nature shows..."

"Diego please" Pogo spoke.
"Does it turn you on?"
"So what?, Is he just an animal to you now, Diego, huh?" Luther pointed at Pogo.
"Enough" Pogo snapped
"This house was attacked. We barely got out with out lives. And Grace,she wasnt so lucky" Pogo spoke

"Both your brother's are missing, and this is how you rise to the occasion? Take your nonsense  elsewhere. Now" Pogo demanded.
"Sorry,Pogo"
"Yeah, sorry, Pogo"

================================

Luther and Diego arrived at the van where Five and Daniel once occupied,
They opened it but they both had a hard time entering because of their leader battle bullshit.

Diego found a note at the backseat.
"I know where to find them" He said showing the equations Five wrote down in Vanya's book.
Five and Daniel arrived as well as Lance, they noticed that the place was on fire so they both ran to the building.
The building explodes throwing Daniel And Five a few feet back to the street.
Five and Daniel grunts in pain.
"Daniel you ok?" Five spoke.
"Fine, you?"
"Im alright"
"What now" Daniel spoke glancing at the destroyed building.
