A/N: Remember, feel free to comment! Let's get right into it!


Reader POV 2nd Person:

Your earliest memories are filled with nothing but the Umbrella Academy, unfortunately this doesn't make them good memories. Your siblings and father could never seem to stand you, which quite frankly you've never understood. Since you can remember you've been treated like an outcast by everyone besides Klaus and Ben, but since Ben's passing Klaus had slowly started distancing himself from you. This makes being with the Umbrella Academy absolutely unbearable at times because even if you weren't not locked away like Viktor or sent to the moon like Luther, the hatred was and is very much present. Unsure of what you ever did leaves you with nothing to fix it. Is it because of your powers? Is it because you tend to get along with Klaus the best? Is it because you sing in the shower sometimes? You just don't know...

You're number 8 meaning you're the weakest, which you're reminded of every single day of your existence. With the gift to control the weather it can be somewhat unpredictable at times, making some issues pop up on occasion- one being the random lightning strike to yourself. Luckily no lasting damage has been done... Well lucky for you at least, your family would probably celebrate if something were to happen to you. They believe your gift to be useless, your father of course is the strongest believer of such. Another problem with your gift is that your emotions can sometimes affect it. Thankfully it's only very powerful emotions that trigger your powers. When you're angry you summon a thunderstorm, when you're happy- a soft breeze, when you're annoyed- a drizzle, when you're sad- a hailstorm, and when you're embarrassed- a rainbow appears above your head. Severe embarrassment is your least favorite drawback from your gift, the rainbow only making your embarrassment worse by highlighting it for others to see. Sometimes you dread having to feel emotions due your powers projecting them, though it rarely happens anymore after you've spent your entire life learning to control it.

On the other hand- being number 8 does have its perks such as not being used in every mission. You have no qualms fighting considering you've been trained for years, but not having to wake up and dread the day because of a mission feels pretty good. When Ben was alive you and him would hang back at the Academy most mission days. Those days were always your favorites, a plus being that it would annoy Klaus to no end. He would always claim that you guys were "leaving him out of bestie hangout time." You miss those days...

You've been stuck in 1963 for a few years now- building your own life away from your siblings. However, you can't help but worry for them... you arrived in the past all on your lonesome, not a clue if they're even alive anymore. You figured there was no point dwelling as you got to work building the life you've always wanted and became an artist. You managed to make it pretty big. Sadly, this led Five right to you. He was quick to explain that he needed to find the rest of your family and get them out of there before another apocalypse occurs. Though he didn't fail to get a dig at you by muttering about how you'd never be able to help him, hence the need for your other siblings. At least he came to find you and decided against leaving you stranded in 1963. The two of you eventually found the scattered siblings and after a battle for the ages against the commission, the Handler, and a strange woman named Lila, you all jump through time again.

Little did you know that your life would forever change after that jump...
