Meet the Family)

When everyone was able to move their limbs in an orderly manner without yelping in pain, the family began moving through the park. Five seemed to naturally lead the way, and though his hand was linked with Kali, she was a step or two behind him.

Kali sighed, glaring at the fifth person to stare at them as they walked past, all dressed in dark clothing and fashion that surely was not era-appropriate, "What are we actually doing?" 

"Ruminating," Five answered simply,

"Why is everyone staring at us?" Klaus questioned, staring back at a couple who were walking down stone steps beside them -- clearly watching the group intensely,

Diego leaned over to Klaus, hissing his words, "Because we look like the damn Village People just lost a fight," Just as he finished his sentence, he grabbed Klaus's hat who instantly protested. 

Allison winced back at the boys, stepping away from the group who came to a natural pause, "You know what? I need to go find Claire. I will catch up with your guys later."

Vanya jumped in front of Five to get to her sister, "Hey, Allison, no. First, let's get somewhere safe, clean up those cuts, and then we'll go find her."

Though Luther's attention was elsewhere, specifically the banner handing on a building just insight. One that showed all the Sparrows staring down at them, "Man, I hate those guys. Look at 'em with their... stupid smug..."

Klaus leaned up to Luther, whispering encouragement, "You can do it. You can do it."

Luther nodded with a forced blink, "s...s...smug... smugness,"

Both twins scrunched their eyes closed. Klaus sighed and patted Luther's shoulder, "Keep working on it, big guy. You'll land one, eventually." 

Luther shook off the comment, "But honestly, what are we doing? We can't stand here bleeding out in this park,"
