Ordinary, but something [The Umbrella Academy]

CH 8: The Day That Wasn't

Five never came back. It's been a day since we last saw him. Luther and I have been talking, and we think it's time to tell the others about the apocalypse, seeing how it's only 3 days away now. So Luther is currently gathering the others while I wait in the living/bar room. Diego was the first to arrive. "Oh, it's you."

"Hello again." I gave him a short wave.

"Do you know why Luther is gathering us?"

"I do, but we need everyone here. It's about Five."

"Oh, are you annoucing you're dating?"

"We're not dating..." I sigh loudly, throwing my head back.

"Who aren't you dating?" Alison walks in, coffee in hand.

"Five."

"Oh wow, he moves fast. It's only been a couple days." Luther walks in, Klaus trailing behind him.

"Good, you're all here. So the world's ending in three days."

"Shouldn''t we wait for Vayna?"

"I'm meeting with her later, I'll tell her then. But three days?" Alison hands Luther a coffee, being handing one to everyone, excluding me.

"That's what Five had."

"The old bastard did mention the apocalypse, come to think of it." We stared at Klaus as he sat on the floor. "He just left out the part about how soon."

"But can we trust him?" Alison questions. "I don't know if you've noticed but Five's a little..." Her makes a gesture, signing his gone loopy.

"Our little psycho." Klaus sighed with love.

"Really? How you guys forgotten he was alone for over 40 years?" They all just looked at me. "I don't get why you don't trust him."

"You're dating, you're opionin on him doesn't count." Diego drinks his coffee, eyeing me.

"We're not... Why do I even bother..."

"He was pretty convincing." Luther backed me up. "If he wasn't trying to stop an apocalypse, those lunatics wouldn't be after him."

"That's why they're after him?" 'Five really needs to tell his family these things...'

"What did Five see?" Luther looked a little uncomfortable.

"Uhhh, well.. Apparently, we all, minus Victoria, fought together against whoever was responsible." He stared at them all unsure. His clicks his tongue, standing up and walking away from Alison. "Okay, so here's the plan." Everyone caught on he trying to avoid something. He mumbles into his coffee.

"Wow, your entire family doesn't say shit..." I mumble to myself, Klaus hearing me. 

"What aren't you two telling us Vicky?" Luther looks at me, shaking his head slightly.

"They desiever to know Luther."

"What happened?" Alison asks again.

"We died." The others looked surprised, looking between us. 

"Wait, how long have you known?"

"I learnt yesterday."

"And you?" Alison points at me.

"Oh, three days ago?"

"And you kept it from us?!" Diego raised his voice.

"You guys attacked me the first time you saw me!" Everyone but Klaus looked down. "Excuse me for not telling you, but this is my second time meeting some of you. You're still strangers too me, I can't walk up to you and tell you, you're gonna die. You wouldn't believe me because you don't know me."
