Five and Lila grunt when they drop onto the floor, their teeth immediately chattering as they look up from the snow-covered grass they were on and biting cold winds. It was just a snowy tundra and Five cursed when they dropped too far into the past, hiding the worry on his face with frustration. He was worried about getting back you
"Oh, brilliant idea, Lila! Welcome to the Ice Age!" He yells at her, shoving her to the side in annoyance as they both get up, him holding onto the briefcase. The cold made him wish he was back with you, with your warmth, back in bed just laying with you.
Lila turns behind her, a smile of relief on her face before shoving him back to get his attention. "Shut up and just look." The little assassin glares at her as he huddles from the cold, hugging himself before turning back behind him with her.
"The Commission..." Five whispers, a look of shock and concern while Lila just laughs, starting to trudge through the snow and wind towards The Commission building. "Shit..." he sighs, walking after her. The snow crunched beneath their feet before they were able to head inside away from the cold, Lila laughing in shock.
"Holy shit..." she looks around in surprise at the dilapidated and run-down building, Five a little more concerned with narrow eyes and pursed lips. "I was just here. How long was I bloody gone?" Lila asks and Five frowns.
"Its seems the grandfather paradox is affecting everything." He sighs out, setting the briefcase down and rubbing his wrists. "Even places out of time." Five thought him rubbing his wrist and the anxious feeling was from the major powersurge that went through him but he didn't know it was something else entirely.
"Is that possible?" Lila looks at him with concern now.
"I stopped tracking what was possible a long time ago." he sighs softly.
He knew he had the tendency to hold onto things tight and to never let go no matter how small, that fear wired into his brain for his entire lifetime. And he especially had that fear overcome him when he fell in love with you. He wouldn't dare try to track how it was possible that he was able to have you, he just knew that he was never going to let go. He couldn't.
Five picks up the briefcase again, rubbing his hand over his heart as he followed Lila deeper into The Commission when sudden loud rumbling shook the building. The two supers quickly jump back to dodge the heavy and sharp debris that broke from the roof due to the harsh winds, coughing from the dust that disperses.
"We better get moving. I'll check the Infinite Switchboard." Five breathes outs, starting to head up the stairs.
"And I'll check Herb's office. Little cockroach would survive anything." Lila replies, starting to walk off but turns back to Five as he climbed the first set of stairs two at a time. "Bye!"
"See ya." he replies back nonchalantly, not looking back and quickly heading up.
