Inanna and Klaus followed after Five into the hotel and over to the bar where the other sat, wiping her eyes dry with the back of her hand.
"Okay, gather round people" Five said holding the book in his hand. "Where is-where's every—Where's Luther?" Five asked.
"Haven't seen him" Allison responded taking a glass from the bar man as Inanna stopped next to her, asking for whatever drink Allison had.
"Who knows?" Diego said.
"Anybody know where- Okay, you know what?" Five open the book and sat it on the counter. "We got bigger problems to worry about right now".
"Like what?" Allison asked.
Five pointed at a newspaper article which had been clipped into the book. "This" Five said. Five flicked over the paper to another newspaper article as his siblings surrounded the counter, all of them looking at the articles which spoke about the deaths of different women.
"Who are they?" Viktor asked.
"These are our mothers" Five responded.
"How do you know?" Diego asked Five.
"Because-" Five glanced to Inanna and she turned away from him "This is Inanna's mother" Five turned the page once more, stopping on a news article which was written about Inanna's mothers death — a black and white photograph of Iris underneath it.
On the page after was an article about Inanna's father and Inanna hoped Five wouldn't mention him. Inanna's father, Jonny, hadn't died the same way as her mother but he had been killed in a car accident on the same day while Iris had been driving.
"They're all dead" Five said, he knew Inanna didn't want to hear it, just reading it had shattered her, but Five had to tell his family. "They all died on the exact same day, October 1st, 1989".
"That's our birthday" Viktor said.
"Not anymore, it isn't" Five responded. "They all died before we were born. It's how dad was able to adopt Anna, she was orphaned at two months old".
"That's dumb" Diego said and Five crossed his arms, waiting to see what Diego had to say. "If we weren't born, how can we exist?" Diego asked.
"Exactly" Five said.
"What are you saying?" Viktor asked.
"I'm saying, when we jumped here, we created a time paradox" Five began explaining and Inanna sat her empty glass on the counter, willing herself to listen to him. "All right? Not just any paradox. This is the grandfather paradox".
"What the hell is a grandfather paradox?" Klaus asked. Nothing good.
Realising that it wasn't the best idea to have the conversation at the bar with strangers around them, Five lead them upstairs with a cup of coffee in his hand, starting up the conversation again once they were around the pool tables.
