Iris were sitting on the bed, staring at a blank space. "Are you okay?" Five asked as he entered with his hands in his pockets.

"Would you believe me if I said yes?"  She replied flatly.

He shook his head in denial. "No."

"Then that's your answer." She sighed in annoyance.

"You want to tell me what happened there?" Five asked as took a seat in front of her.

She just paused. Five know there's something bothering his sister. He just stay there waiting calmly for her to be ready to tell him.

"Well... no one knows about this. Not even our Ben." Iris said as Five listen to her carefully. "When we're kid, I really want to know about my origin like my mother and where I came from. That night, dad wasn't around. So I used my power to go into his office. And I found a file with my name on it..."

Iris paused for a moment. Five patiently waiting for her to continue knowing that it must be hard for her.

"You wonder why they got Iris too, even though in this timeline all of our mothers are dead before we born." Five nodded. "Well turns out I don't have a mother." Iris continued.

"What? What do you mean?" Five asked in confusion.

"It's all in the file... Dad was in the hotel obsidian room at the time. I figured it must be the White Buffalo Suits. And he heard the sound of babycrying from door to the other side." Iris explained referring to the door to the seven bells.

"He hesitated at first but he eventually went inside. The room was dark than but he can still see his surrounding. That's what he described on the file. He keep following the voice of the baby's cry. And at the darkest side of the hotel... he found a baby... surrounded by shadow and darkness... He found me there."

"While you guys were born, I appeared out the darkness inside of that room. Like I meant to appear for something... And then dad took me home. That's how it became eight of us. I wish I never know about it. I think it's best that way." Iris explained.

Five was speechless. He didn't know what to say. His only question was how can Iris be there. "Why you never tell me about this when we're kids?" Five turned to his sister.
