FLASHBACK

Five P.O.V

Another day, another bloody day in this hell with only me and Delores. I am still nowhere near finding out the equations to get me home, and I'm slowly losing sight of it. NO I can't think that I will get home somehow.

I was sat at my latest destination having a drink and talking to Delores when suddenly a woman appeared. I have been here for decades, so who the hell is this and how does she look so clean with all the smog and smoke? I held up my gun to her and looked through the scope as she was waving to me. What the hell is happening?

flashback over

I was sitting on Diego's bed looking around his room as Luther sat across from me.

"Before I forget, Violet said she needs to talk to you about something."

I gave him a nod before we went back to Silence, but it didn't last long. He started talking to me about what I said when I was drunk about the end of the world and I think it's time I told someone other than Violet. 

"When is it supposed to happen? "This... apocalypse"

" I can't give you the exact hour but... for what I could gather, we have four days left."

"Why didn't you say something sooner?"

I rolled my eyes at his stupidity. I mean, it's not like I can go up to them and say hay, the world is going to go up in smoke and flames in 4 days and I have no clue how or why.

"It wouldn't have mattered."

"Of course it would. We could've banded together and helped you try to stop this thing."

"For the record, you already tried. I found you all. "

"We die"

I didn't want to say it out loud, but it was time it had to be said. I just wish it wasn't Luther I was telling this to first.

"Horribly, you were all trying to stop whoever it was that ended the world."

"Wait, how do you know that?"

I pulled out the eye from my pocket. The last lead I had to solve this, the thing that kept me going for so long, was now just a useless piece of glass.

"This was clutched in your dead hand when I found you."

He took it off of me and started looking. He looked at the serial number on the back, asking about that, but I told him me and Violet already tried that and it failed. He handed it back to me, and I took one last look before putting it back in my pocket.

"piece of shit"

Diego slammed open the door and started making his way over to me. He didn't look happy. 

"Do you have any idea what you just did?"

Luther wrapped his big ape arms around him to stop him from getting to me and tried to calm him down. Great more drama this family is just full of drama. He finally calmed down, and Luther put him back o his feet.

"Now want to tell us what you're talking about?"

Our brother's been pretty busy since we got back and he's dragging Violet along with him."

He told me that Hazel and Cha-cha killed his friend, which is not good. Don't get me wrong, at the moment, it's not my biggest problem.

"Who are they five?"
