You guys make it back to the hotel. Before you even had a chance of getting out Five opens the car door grabbing your wrist harshly and forcefully pulling you into the hotel Klaus following behind

"Five, stop! That hurts!" You hiss out trying to yank your wrist back but his grip tightens. You look at Klaus concerned as he has the same expression

"Five, stop." Klaus stops Five in his tracks by running in front of him and holding his shoulders. Fives jaw clenches but Klaus just motions his head towards you who was wincing in pain from his tight grip. Fives expression softens as he loosens his grip

"Sorry" Five mutters before moving his hand down to yours interlocking his fingers. He jogs up to the bar with you jogging beside him and Klaus behind.
"Okay, gather round, people. Where is—Where's every—Where's Luther?" Five questions spinning round as he lets go of your hand. You jump up onto the bar sitting crossed legged as you just shrugged

"Haven't seem him" Allison Replies taking a sip from her liquor

"Who knows?" Diego also replies standing up to join us at the bar as well as Viktor

"Anybody know where—Okay, you know what? We got bigger problems to worry about right now." Five says opening up the book Klaus gave him back in the car. You jump off the counter and find yourself a bottle of vodka which you happily took and walked back over to Five standing on the opposite side of each other. You on one side of the bar him on the other. You leaned on it as you took a swig from your bottle containing Vodka letting the liquor burn your throat

"Like what?" Allison questions sarcasm laced in her tone

"This" Five says sternly looking at Allison dead in the eye which sent shivers down your spine because of how serious his voice became. He opens the book to reveal a bunch of pages with women on them

"Who are they?" Viktor questions looking at the book with loads of different women on different pages

"These are our mothers." Five answers turning each page to show everyone who there mother was. Klaus stops Five from turning the page as he puts his hands down on the book desperately

"That one's mine" Klaus mumbles looking up at everyone. You look down at the book with a blank expression not really caring on who they are. You take another swig from your bottle

"They're all dead. They all died on the exact same day, October 1st, 1989" Five explains. You raising an eyebrow at him

"That's our birthday" Viktor states the obvious

"No shit" you snap at Viktor. Five blinks behind you slapping your head and blinking back to his original position. You groan rubbing the back of your head
"Prick" you mutter under your breath

"Not anymore, it isn't. They all died before we were born" Five says to Viktor

"That's dumb. If we weren't born, how can we exist?" Diego questions Five not believing him

"Because you guys like fucking up timelines" you respond rolling your eyes and finishing the rest of the Vodka. Five glares at you and you just shrug

"Exactly" Is all Five says as he crosses his arms his glare now gone to Diego who is leaning on the bar same eye-level as Five

"What are you saying?" Viktor questions confused. Fives glare vanishes as he turns to Viktor

"I'm saying, when we jumped here, we created a time paradox. Alright? Not just any paradox. This is the grandfather paradox." Five explains motioning his hands everywhere. His tone serious but your face scrunches up in confusion. You were drunk as you finished an entire bottle of vodka in under a few minutes so your brain wasn't already in a good state now Five is spewing nonsense to you

"The fuck is a para...para...par..." you slur out your words not remembering what he literally just described

"Paradox?" Five questions looking at you with a tiny smirk on his face

"Yeah, that thing. What the FUCK is a parasol?" You question getting the word wrong again.

"Parasol? P A R A D O X" Diego buts in yelling as he spells out the word for you

"Paradox" you slur out grabbing onto the bar for support as your body can't take this much alcohol in just a few minutes.

You may be asking...why did I down an entire bottle of Alcohol in just under a few minutes? Well truth is... I have no clue.

"Yeah, what the hell is a grandfather paradox?" Klaus questions for you since you were already distracted by a dust particle floating towards you

Everyone just stays quiet as tension starts to build. You started giggling at everyones serious expressions which made them face you. Five rolled his eyes as the others looked at you amused
