(Marys POV)

I lay down a start crying in my pillow. Me and Ben were so close. We would do everything with each other..

(A few hours later)

I woke up, I must've fallen asleep. It's 8:00Am. Wow, must've just slept through the hole day yesterday.
I still can't get over the fact bens dead.
I just don't understand why he did that.
I should've taken the hit, not him. I was supposed to be injured.

Why didn't I shove him aside? Why did I let that happen to him.

I hear a knock out the door Inturupting my thoughts.

"Go away" I said.

"Ms Mary.. I have news.. "

Pogo? Why is he here? He never comes to visit us. He's usually with 'father' doing some shit.

"Pogo? " I questioned,
Pogo walks into the room.

"Ms Mary, I know this is very difficult for you to comprehend. We are all hurting.. This loss is a terrible terrible thing. For all of us.." Pogo says, I couldnt  help but tear up a bit.

"So.. This is why we are having a funeral and 3:00 pm today.. We would be very happy if you would join us.. " pogo says.

I sigh

"Okay.. I will be there.. " I say.
Might as well be there for Ben. He was always here for me.

(A Few Hours Later)

(Luther's POV)

I can't believe it.. He's dead.
Its all Mary's fault. She's the one that was supposed to die. She was annoying anyways, ever since she came here.

I don't understand. Why didn't she shove him out of the way? Why did Ben even do that?

I think it's bullshit. We all know she's the problem. (IT'S ME, HI, I'M THE PROBLEM IT'S ME okay I'll stop)

(Fives POV)

Even though me and Ben weren't close and I was always jealous if him. I miss him. He was my brother basically.

Father called me to his office. Why? Did I do anything wrong? I don't think I did.

I walk into fathers office with racing thoughts.

"Number five, sit. " I sat down in a chair.

"Did I do something wrong father? " I ask him. "No, you didn't. I just need to talk to you about something. " he Replies.

Oh. Great.

"So.. Plainly, you know about the accident about number six's death. "
Father says,

"Yes sir... " I say not wanting to go deep with this conversation. Honestly, I'm curious what father has to say.
"Well, since Number Eight doesn't have a ppartner, I was wondering if you would take place of her partner. " Father says blankly going through folders and papers.

I was shocked. Is this actually happening?

"U- uh- yes sir." I say, still bursting with excitement. I can't wait to know Mary better. I've always tried to be nice to her, she hates me for no reason.

"What? Why stutter? You've always liked her, correct? " He says not even looking up at me. He's too busy at the files.

How did he know that?

"Yes.. Sir.. " I say still confused on how he knew.

"Well it's quite obvious, isn't it? " he says finally looking at me.

Before I could answer he cut me off.

"Well, your dismissed number five. "
He says dismissively.
Well okay.
"Yes sir." I say and walk out.

Now, I've got to break the ice with Mary.
