Just the two of us (Number 5)

e2 E3/E4- Sweedish Job+ The magestic 12

Quinlin was already at Elliot's when Her brothers and Lila came home. Diego had a stab wound and Quinlin chuckled quietly. 

"Oh he isn't dead, "Five said as he looked surprised. He sat next to Quinlin. "Disappointed?" Lila asked. "Oh to see you, always," Five said as he smiled fakely. "So much hostility in such a tiny package. Did you cut yourself shaving? I could teach you to shave, like a big boy" Lila mocked. "No I just ran into an old friend," Five said as Quinlin wiped away the blood on his neck. "Pogo," she said Knowingly.

Five disappeared again and Quinlin wandered around Elliot's place.

[Next day]

" so what? You just let her go?" Diego asked Five as Lila looked at his wound. Quinlin had changed into a pair of jeans with and simple white top which she tied the knot in the end and a baby blue flannel. "Well, Vanya had a lot to process," Five said as he rolled his eyes. "She'll come around," Quinlin said as she sighed. She had her head in Five's lap as he sipped his coffee. 

"Right now, our priority is finding dad and getting answers, cause everything else depends on it," Five said. "Which for the record I found him already," Diego said but five cut him off. "And then let him go before we could have a meaningful conversation," he said. "He stabbed me," Diego said. "I'm surprised he waiting his long deigo, we've all had the urge," Quinlin said as she rolled her eyes. She lifted her head a little higher so it was on Five's chest as she watched her brother glared at her. "Good one," Lila said as she put her hand out for a High-five. The pair ignored it, sharing a brief look. 

'Hight five's weren't invented till the seventies'

"Good thing is, I know where he's going to be tonight," Five said smugly as he pulled out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Diego. "Where'd you get this?" Deigo asked as he snacked the paper from Five's hands. "Found it at his office while he was busy Stabbing you," Five said as he leaned back on the couch, Quinlin snorted softly and covered her mouth with the back of her hand when Diego glared at her. 

Diego laughed sarcastically before reading the invite out loud. "Hoyt Hillenkoetter and the consulate General of Mexico in Dallas cordially invite you to a gala," Diego said but Elliot cut in. "Woah, wait. Hoyt Hillenkoetter?" Elliot asked. "You know him?" Five asked. "We should go. Says there's gonna be a seafood tower" Lila said to Diego as they both looked at each other with a smile. "Ew, and I've heard that name too. Nathan had a thing for politics" Quinlin said as she sat up straight. "Nathan?" Five asked but as ignored. "No, Hillenkoetter is... one of the magistick twelve," Elliot said as he went to his desk and started scrummaging through it. 

"Wait, so their government?"Diego asked. "No, Shadow government, Kennedy was the first president to try and push 'em into the light," Elliot said. "Oh, here we go. Ah right here" Elliot said as he handed Five a picture. Quinlin looked at the picture as Five moved a little ahead so Diego and Lila could see. " I only count 11," Lila said. "Well, that's because they've only identified 11 so far," Elliot said. "Who's the twelfth?" Deigo asked.  "Holy shit" Quinlin muttered as she shared a look with Five and Diego. 

This could only mean one thing, Reginald Hargreeves. 

***********

They were all hiding behind a car as they looked at the entrance. "So, what's the plan?" Lila asked. "We infiltrate, we identify, we extract, double-time," Diego said as he peaked up from his spot and looked at the security. 

"What the hell is he talking about?" Lila asked the Pair behind her. "Find the old man and get out fast," Five said. "That's what I said," Diego said. "are you sure?" Quinlin asked him but he ignored her. "On me," Diego said as he went ahead. "After both of you," Lila said as she waved to Deigo. Quinlin looked unamused but Five was glaring at the girl.

 "What? I can't be polite?" Lila asked as she fake pouted. "Cut the crap. Alright? Our dimwitted brother might buy your bullshit but we don't trust you for a second" Five gritted out. "O ye of little faith," Lila said as she smiled. "Stick it up your ass," Quinlin said as she fake smiled. Lila chuckled and followed Diego. Quinlin sighed and Followed Five inside. 

Five grabbed the champagne glass from the waiter and took a sip. "You still look 15" Quinlin reminded his softly making sure no one heard her. Five rolled his eyes and walked away. "Okay," she muttered to herself as she went to stand near the stairs area. She crossed her arms over her chest as she looked around the consulate. 

"All alone?" A voice came from beside her. She turned her head and saw Grace, the real one. "Oh... No. He's just doing something" Quinlin responded as she shoved the Urge to jump up and hug the woman. "Men," She said in her Texas accent. "Amen," Quinlin mumbled, "You here with someone too?" Quinlin asked the lady. "Yeah, He's in a meeting," She said as she sighed. "Well, he should never keep a beautiful woman waiting," Quinlin said as she smiled causing Grace to smile as well. "Quinlin" She introduced herself as she outstretched her hand towards the older woman. "Grace" The lady responded as she shook her hand. 

Quinlin spotted Five in the crowd and turned to grace. "I'm going to get a dance before he runs again," Quinlin said as she nodded to Five. "Can he dance?" Grace asked amused. "totally, His dad had this saying, 'you never know when Paso double could be a matter of life an death'" She said as she shrugged. "Weird, I know. But I should go" Quinlin said Quickly. She turned to grace, "It was nice meeting you," She said before walking away. 

She reached Five and looked at him pointedly. "Come one, one dance," she said as she pulled him to where everyone was slow dancing. "Quin," he said as he shook his head. "Please, We haven't slow danced since we were,10," she said as she pouted and he sighed but gave in.

 He put his right hand on her waist and her's rested on his shoulder and their left hands were interlocked. He pulled her a little closer and they slowly swayed to the music. Five was glancing around in search for the Magistic twelve. "Hey, You can save the world in a few minutes, focus on me," Quinlin said as she glared at him. He suddenly twirled her and pulled her close. "Watch it," he said, no malice in his voice. "or what?" She asked teasingly, he looked at her and smiled. 

"Let's go save the world" Quinlin whispered in Five's ear as she turned around and walked to the stairs. Five chuckled and followed her. He blinked them into a cupboard in the room, where the 12 were having a meeting. Quinlin and Five watched them talk and Five leaned forward. "Dad" he whispered and all conversation Halted. Reginald walked to the cupboard and Five blinked them out before they got hit with the stick. 

"Shit" she heard Five said and she turned around and saw one of the swedes. "This day just keeps getting better and better," she said out loud as the swede grabbed Five and shoved him into a wall but Five blinked away before contact and appeased behind him, he kicked the back of his knee making the blonde fall. Quinlin Kicked him in the face and Five was thrown at her feet. The swede tried to punch him but five blinked behind him again. Suddenly five's hands were blue, his energy spluttered as the swede walked up to him and began beating him up.

Quinlin ran to them but was grabbed but another person who locked their arms around her neck. Diego showed up and another swede followed, beating him up. Quinlin was suspended in the air and she tried to catch her breath. She glanced behind and saw Deigo being cornered and Five, who was ahead of her was getting punched. 

Suddenly Lila appeared but instead of Heading Diego, she helped Five. Five looked down and saw the car and made eye contact with Quinlin. "Go," she said horsly and Five grunted but blinked out. Lila looked at the pair before running out behind Five. "Fucking bitch" Quinlin said as she kicked the swede holding her in the groin. He fell to his knees and she roundhoused his face knocking him out instantly. "Go with Five," Diego said as he stopped the swede attacking him. Quinlin nodded and sprinted down to where Five was. Just in time for hearing him yell out in ancient greek. 

"Homer?" She asked out of breath. Five nodded and kissed his teeth. 'Was that him?" Diego asked as he ran in. "yeah" Five said as he huffed.
