"Ben. Is that really you?" Klaus asked with a bright smile, hoping it is actually him. Ben simply just eyed him weirdly in response.
"They are the Sparrows. My children." Reginald intercepted, making me even more confused. What the hell was going on here.
For some reason, everything starting rumbling and shaking. The sounds of electric waves were heard everywhere. We looked around and saw nothing that caused this and shrugged it off since it was probably the most normal thing that happened in the last few minutes.
"I'm sorry. What do you mean, your children?" Five asked, walking forward. "That's not possible, old man" I added after him. "Of course it is! I think I'd know, wouldn't I?" Reginald said in glee, which is not something that he would do in our time line.
"Everybody else can see Ben, right?" Klaus asked, still focusing on something that wasn't our case now. "Cute hat, Sundance." Ben said, sending glares to all of us. Klaus simply just tipped his hat in a mannerly gesture.
"They call themselves the Umbrella Academy, a group of scheming, perfidious malcontents who accosted me in the fall of 1963 when I was away on business in Dallas." Reginald stated. " Look, Five, what the hell is going on?" Allison intercepted. Five sighed.
"I don't know yet, but it's concerning."
"Is he telling the truth?" The guy in the middle of all of them said. I assume he is the leader?
"Not the part about us being perfidious." Vanya said, which I nodded in agreement. "No, we're amateur-fidious, at best." Klaus said. Of course he had to say something stupid to make us look worse than we already are.
"But we are his children. This is our house." Vanya continued, making the leader scrunch his eye brows in confusion. "Yeah, yeah. We, uh... We grew up here." Luther quickly added, being our leader.
"'Yeah, we grew up here.'" The smug faced looking guy mocked. I just wanted to smack him in the face.
Five sensed my anger and aggression on my face and squeezed my hand. It was going to be alright.
"I kind of think we would have noticed you." A pretty girl said. Luther looked at her like she was the girl of his dreams. Yuck.
"Hi. I'm Luther" He said out of a random and stuck out his hand. The pretty girl just smiled awkwardly at him, knowing if she did shake his hand, she would probably get kicked out.
"Okay. None of you belong here." Allison said, walking forward. She also looked angry.
Oh! Well, then. I guess we'll just pack our bags and move out." Another pretty girl said sarcastically who had shades on. Since when did everyone here get attractive, huh.
Another surprise. The cube can speak.
It started talking in basically gibberish, making us all give confused and weirded out looks. They all started laughing at whatever the cube said. "You slay me, Chris." Ben said. I looked at him extra weirdly for his strange humor.
3rd surprise of the day. Grace came out of fucking nowhere.
"I wasn't expecting company. This is the best I could do on short-" She said, but started glitching and saying "short" in many different language for some reason.
I looked at Diego. From all the tiny pep talks me and him had over the last 3 weeks, he always talked about Grace and how she was his only parental figure, as Reginald always neglected him.
He was walking up to her, confused but delighted.
"Mom?" Diego asked, staring at Grace as if she was a literal god.
"Mom? She's a robot, you perv." Another pretty girl said. Except this one had very black hair and looked like a badass.
"It's not a robot." Diego said in response in a very monotone voice. "Hey, don't you call him that." Luther responded to the pretty black haired girl.
"Or what?" "Come closer and find out"
They were both inching closer to each other as if a fight was about to go down. "Luther! Guys, chill!" I said, walking forward as well. "Oh look. Who is this little girl?" Ben said while looking me up and down. I felt like I was going to vomit in disgust.
"How about I hide that big Rubik's Cube up your ass?" Diego said. But something went wrong. Maybe it was just me.
Diego looked at all of us in a very calm and no-expression face, getting me confused. But I ignored it. The most important thing we have to do now is get to the end of this. Even if I possibly have to ignore my own brother who may be dying right now.
"You got 30 seconds to get out of our house." The leader guy said. "And if we don't?" Allison cockily replied. "Then we'll have to settle this the old-fashioned way."
"Look, we just fought a literal army. Okay? This doesn't need to get ugly." I said, making Ben look at me even more curiously. I was starting to get weirded out. Did he like me in that way? Ew.
"Let's all just calm down, and let's talk." Vanya added.
But of course, Klaus had to bring out his stupidity again. "Psst. Ben-er-ino." He said with a small innocent smile. He went from looking at me to looking at Klaus while flexing his jaw. "You look so much better alive than you do dead. Am I right?"
"Except that haircut." Klaus added on, finally making Ben get tipped over the edge. "What did you just say!?" Ben said angrily. Anger really did make him look a lot more mature.
"Come on, come on. Stop with all the hostility, Mr. Grumpy Pants." Klaus said, pretending not to see Ben getting more mad by the second. He got even more close to Ben, "Oh wow. Nice scar. Muy macho."
"You shut your mouth!" Ben yelled. "You shut your mouth and just hug your brother-" Slap.
Ben slapped Klaus straight across the face, making him dramatically fall back and roll onto the couch.
"Hey! What the hell? You didn't have to do that!" Luther yelled. "Oh, I'm pretty sure I did!" Ben replied, sounding pissed more than ever. "He did" The smug faced guy added, trying to support his fellow brother.
Marcus came and pushed Luther. Luther pushed back and attempted to hit him, "Back off!" He yelled. Luther went for a punch.
But instead, Marcus simply ducked and instead kicked Luther straight in the stomach. He fell back right into Klaus, who was getting up, but fell right back on the couch. With Luther falling on the couch too, the couch flipped back and fell.
I hissed at their embarrassment.
"Bad touch, Luther! Bad touch!" Klaus yelled, trying to get Luther to get off him. "Sorry" Luther said simply and got off him.
Reginald walked away too, somewhere where I didn't know.
God. Another classic Hargreeves fight was starting, this time with a new guest.
