CHAPTER 9 THE DAY THAT WASN'T

Wednesday 8:15am

Violet P.O.V

We just got home after a very long and complicated afternoon, if I do say so myself. Luther had called a meeting with the family, so I quickly went to my room to get my note book and I joined everyone sat down.

"3 days"

He had just finished telling us about the end of the world, with a bit of input from myself. Alison was giving us all a coffee as he did so.

"That's what five said."

"The old bastard did mention the apocalypse. Come to think of it, he just left out the part about how soon."

He is a bit more himself, which is nice. Maybe after all this, I will actually be able to talk about what happened.

"But can we trust him? I don't know if you've noticed, but five is a little cho cho. "

I mean, I do agree there, but at the same time, I have believed him every step of the way and I don't really know why.

"Our little psycho."

"He was pretty convincing if he wasn't trying to stop an apocalypse, those lunatics wouldn't have been after him. Plus have you seen mini Diego hanging with five willingly for no reason"

They all gave me a look as I was sipping my coffee.

"What?"

"That's why they were after him?"

"Yeah."

I couldn't help but think about the 2 masked associates of five. I wanted to know what happened that was so bad that he is wanted by an awful lot of people, and what on God's earth is he doing now.

"What did five even see?"

"Uhhhh"

Oh, this should be good, but he should tell them rather than me. He is number one, after all.

"We all fight together against whoever was responsible." Okay, so here's the plan.

You could see he was holding something back from us all, and no one was buying it for a second.

"Wait, what?"

Everyone started shouting at one another trying to get more answers, even me. The Microsoft nerd was keeping something from me that he had told Luther and I wanted to know.

"Wait a tick, what actually happened the first time around?"

Yeah, what are you not telling us? Come on, big boy spit it out. "

He looked around at each of us and down to his coffee before mumbling under his breath and taking a sip of his coffee.

"We died."

Hold the phone. What the hell did he just say?

"What was that?"

"I said, 'Uh, we died."

We all started bickering about what happened and how and why, but it looks like Luther is in the dark just as much as we are.

"Hey"

We all shot our heads up to see Vanya, and I was so happy to see her, so I went over to her.

"Vanny, hay, I missed you so much. Things have been crazy, so I'm so sorry I haven't spoken to you in a while. I have been stuck with five, so it's been a long few days. "

"Aw, it's okay Violet, as long as you are okay."

I gave her a smile before I turned to the stranger.

Hi, I'm Violet Vanya's, sister. Who are you, if you don't mind me asking."
