'During Extreme Weather Conditions, a climber must possess the wisdom to determinate when evacuation is inevitable.'
Grace rang the bell as the eight children walked down the stairs. They entered the dining room before standing behind their seats. Lilith ran down the steps quickly and jogged to her seat while fixing her hair. Right on time, Reginald walked in and stood in his spot at the end of the table, across from Vanya. "Sit!" He demanded as they all listened and started to eat as each of them started doing their own thing.
Luther and Allison were googling eyes with each other, Diego was carving something underneath the table, Klaus secretly rolled a joint, Ben was reading a book, Landon and Vanya gave each other looks trying to make each other smile, Lilith playing around with her orb while Five looked around at everyone before keeping his attention on Reginald.
It was silent as no one conversed, the only thing that was heard were utensils and the record, until Five jammed his knife into the table making a thud, causing everyone to look at him.
"Number Five?"
"I have a question."
"Knowledge is an admirable goal, but you know the rules. No talking during meal times. You are interrupting Herr Carlson." Reginald said.
"I want to time travel."
"No."
"But I'm ready! I've been practicing my spacial jumps, just like you said." Five continued as he spacial jumped next to Reginald' side. "See!"
"A spacial jump is trivial, when compared to the unknowns of time travel. One is like sliding along the ice, the other is akin to descending blindly into the depths of the freezing water and reappearing as an acorn." Reginald stated, taking a sip of his drink not even glancing at Five. Lilith took in the information as Five stood there angry and confused, "Well I don't get it." Five mumbled to Reginald.
"Number Nine! Do you understand?" Everyone's attention turned to Lilith as she took a sip of her drink, "I haven't heard of it." She muttered, a bit annoyed.
"Hence the reason you're not ready. One of the smartest people does not understand it." Reginald confirmed causing Lilith to glare at him.
"I'm not afraid." Five retorted.
"Fear isn't the issue. The effects it might have on your body, even on your mind are far too unpredictable. Now, I forbid you to talk about this anymore." Reginald said, finally looking at Five.
Five shook his head before glancing over to Lilith, who immediately caught his eye. They both gave each other a nod with Five turning away to run as Lilith got up and ran after him.
