chapter 11
1 year before Fives return
EVERYONE IN THE commission was meeting up by the staircase, all confused. No one had no idea what was going on. The Handler made everyone meet up here.
Five was starting to get worried. Edylenne didn't return from her mission. She did say she would be back soon. She hasn't come back yet.
He stood, arms crossed and worried. People distanced themselves from the old man, scared he was going to stab them. He didn't care. He only stayed by Edylenne his whole life anyway.
"You know what this is about?" A commission worker asked another worker.
The other commission worker shook her head no. Five also wanted to know what was going on. But, he had a feeling it was about his wife.
Finally, the Handler exited her office with mascara running down her face, and a tissue in her hand.
All the workers gasped, they were worried about her. Even Five was worried for her, surprisingly.
She came out sobbing her eyes out, and blew her nose into the tissue. She put the tissue in her pocket and finally started speaking.
"One of our fellow co-workers has left us. One of us has died." She made it dramatic as possible. Everyone at the edge of the stairs gasped and started whispering who they thought had died.
Five didn't want to think it was Edylenne. Besides, she wasn't the only person leaving that day. Everyday, commission workers leave and return from missions. So, it wouldn't be a surprise that it would have been someone else.
"I know. I know. It's very tragic. And, they were one of the best we ever had."
The Handler's eyes glanced at Five for a split second, and then looked back at the crowd. He had a very suspicious look on his face.
"They were amazing, brave, and loyal. Can't believe we lost this person." She went on.
Everyone was mesmerized by her words, but Five was not having it. He knew how evil she was.
"This person, it may be a shock to you. It was Edylenne Hargreeves."
Everyone in the room gasped. Five's expression changed quickly. The person standing next to Five looked at him, and said, "I'm so sorry for you're loss."
Five stood there, flabbergasted and shocked. She couldn't be dead? She was the most powerful Umbrella Academy kid.
"No." Five said, his eyes watering.
"I know, I know. Shocking, isn't it? Her briefcase exploded when she tried returning back here. If at any time this week, please make sure that her husband all the condolences. He really needs it."
He stood there with tears streaming down his eyes. He blinked into their room, and found a jacket that she wore a lot. He smelled it, and it smelled just like her.
His tears got on her jacket, and he broke out into sobs. He put the jacket up to his face and cried into it. He threw the jacket on the bed and sat in a nearby chair aggressively and put his hands on his head while still crying.
Five couldn't hold himself in and threw something on the floor that shattered. It was a plate. He cried and cried and cried.
"Edylenne, no. Shit, shit shit."
