We made it back. I look up to find Five, Elliott, Vanya, Luther, and Diego all looking at us

Klaus- is it just me or did we all get hotter?

Me- I mean look at Diego, the hair fits

Diego- yeah yeah

The family reunited after three years and I felt happy for them. We went upstairs to listen to Fives plan. I listened in but also thinking of possible things to do, but soon everyone was arguing.

Five- you all die!

Luther- excuse me what?

Five- I saw it, you all die from a nuclear bombing

Me- woah...

He then gives a speech on how we need to work together. But Luther just flat out leaves. Five then disappears, leaving me, Vanya, Allison, and Klaus.

Klaus- who's up for tacos? Vanya tacos?

Me- I'll grab a meal on the way

Vanya- I'm in

Allison- wait for me

We all left Elliott's place to grab food. We then went to Allison's barber shop to hang out at. I was sitting in one of the spinning chairs.

Allison- want me to give you a trim Percy? It looks a little long

Me- does it look bad?

Allison- no, no not at all

Klaus- put it in a ponytail

Vanya- it looks long enough

Allison hands me a hair tie, I wrap my hair in it and turn around to them. Klaus gasps

Klaus- holy hot

Me- really?

Vanya- your hair looks nice up

Me- thanks

I look back in the mirror

Me- although Allison, could you possibly trim up the dead ends. I haven't had a haircut since... I can't remember...

Allison- of course

She sets a wrap over me and begins to trim

Me- I always wore a hat so I never really cared about my hair

Allison- well your hair is gorgeous

Me- thanks Alli

Klaus- hang on, I've got a very important question to ask you

Me- which is what?

I say as Allison tilts my head

Klaus- have you ever had alcohol?

Me- never tried it due to me being scared of my...you know

Klaus- it doesn't hurt to take a shot though, I mean it's just liquid

Me- I guess it shouldn't hurt to try

Vanya- but what happens when you get a bad reaction?

Me- I guess Klaus will have to take me to the hospital again

Klaus- although this time I'll be staying

Allison took the cover off my shoulders

Allison- how does it look?

Me- cleaner

Allison- that's good

I turn to see Klaus handing me a shot

Klaus- you'll like it, if it doesn't melt your face

Me- it won't do that

I take the shot and take a deep breath. I close my eyes as I swallow the shot in one sip.

Vanya- well?

Me- I feel fine, for now

Allison- I didn't like that last bit

Klaus- it's fine, the hospital isn't far

Klaus hands me another shot, I take it in one swift movement

Klaus- calm down, this is your first drink

Me- and it's not bad

Allison- you know... give Percy the whole bottle

Vanya- why?

Allison- I mean we only have six days left, might as well make it last

Klaus- I guess, I can always get more

He hands me the rest of the bottle

Klaus- knock yourself out, not literally though. Please don't

We all laugh

Allison- what should we do for our last six days?

Vanya- I know what I'm going to do... I'm going to tell Sissy I love her

Klaus- atta girl

Allison- and I'm going to be honest with my husband

Me- that's a good idea

Klaus- does that mean I have to confront my cult?

Me- wait cult? That's what you were doing?

Klaus- yes, I still am very sorry

Me- I said I forgave you, it's alright

I sat back

Me- wow...a cult

Klaus- they give me a headache...

Me- that's why you need to confront them

I offer Klaus and Allison a glass. They both drink from it.

Vanya- what are you going to do Percy?

I stop drinking and wipe the remence from my mouth

Me- I am going to tell my someone that they are the one

Klaus chokes while Allison gasps
