(Y/n)'s pov

We all walk outside everyone having their own umbrella except Luther, Diego, and me. I was sharing with Five. We all gather around Luther, who stood in front of us all with the urn.

I suddenly get a vision. I see Luther and Diego fighting, and then Ben's statue gets knocked over.

BEN'S STATUE!? HELL NO! NOT HAPPENING! NOT TODAY!

"We need to move. Like over there or something." I point at a different spot
"But this is dads favorite spot?"
"I'm sorry, but I do not care. I am not risking Ben's statue."
"What?"
"Vision. Future. Now move."
"Okay, okay. Come on." Everyone then moves to a different spot.

"Did something happen?" Mom asks. Everyone looks at her, confused by her question.
"Dad died. Remember?" Allison was the only one willing to answer.
"Oh. Yes, of course." She smiles. Allison looks towards Diego.
"Is mom okay?"
"Yeah, yeah, she's fine. She just needs to rest. You know, recharge."

Then Pogo finally walks out and looks up at one.
"Whenever you're ready, dear boy."

Luther looks at the urn before taking the lid off and pouring the ashes out. I look over to Five.

"That was a little... anticlimactic. Don't you think?" I whisper to him. I see Five smirks slightly, and I turn back to Luther proud of myself.

"Probably would have been better with some wind." Number one states.
"Does anyone wish to speak?" Pogo speaks up, but everyone turns away, avoiding the question.
"Very well. In all regards, Sir Reginald Hargreeves made me who I am today. For that alone, I shall forever be in his debt. He was my master... and my friend, and I shall miss him very much. He leaves behind a complicated legacy-"

"He was a monster."Diego interrupts. I have to force myself not to laugh, but I end up making eye contact with Klaus, who is doing the same, and I burst out into giggles with him. Five bumps into me, attempting to get me to shut up, but I don't. Diego continues when we're done.

"He was a bad person and a worse father. The world's better off without him."
"Diego." Allison hisses.
"My name is Number Two. You know why? Because our father couldn't be bothered to give us actual names. He made mom do it."
"Would anyone like something to eat?" Mom tries to ease the tension.
"No, it's okay, Mom." Vanya answers back quickly.
"Oh, okay." She smiles at Vanya.

"Look, you wanna pay your respects?" Diego steps out in-between everyone. "Go ahead. But at least be honest about the kind of man he was."
"You should stop talking now." Luther states sternly. Diego turns to look at him.
"You know, you of all people should be on my side here, Number One."
"I am warning you." Luther takes a step towards Two.
"After everything he did to you? He had to ship you a million miles away."
"Diego, stop talking." Diego continues, stepping closer to Luther.

"That's how much he couldn't stand the sight of you!"

Luther then swings at Diego, and them now fighting. Pogo shouts for the boys to stop, but they continue.

"We don't have time for this." Five gestures for me to walk back inside with him.
"Yeah, I don't care anymore. Ben's statue is safe, and that's all that matters." I then turn around and walk beside Five back into the house.

I was in the kitchen with Five and Klaus after the funeral. Five was searching the cabinets for something while Klaus was... doing something weird with a guitar.

"Five, what are you doing? And Klaus, where the hell did you get a guitar?"
"I'm looking for coffee."
"I don't actually know where it came from."
"What?" Five turns to me.
"What do yo-."
"I was talking to Klaus." I interrupt before he continues. He looks at me angrily and turns away.

"Yeah, it just kind of popped up. I don't know."
"Okay. Whatever." I shake my head disappointedly. Then Allison walks in

"Where's Vanya?" She asks.
"Oh, she's gone."
"Really? Damn. I didn't get to say bye."
"That's unfortunate." Five states, but I have a feeling it's not about our sister.
"An entire square block. 42 bedrooms, 18 bathrooms, but no, not a single drop of coffee."
"Dad hated caffeine."
"Well, he hated children, too, and had plenty of us." Klaus and I laugh at what he said.
"The man is right, you know." I look at Five amused. He just stares back, annoyed.

"Come on, Eight. We're taking the car." Five grab my wrist to pull me out of the room.
"Where are you going?" Klaus sits up slowly. Ir was like dad mode turned on or something. It scared me a little. Five stopped in his tracks and turned to Klaus.
"To get a decent cup of coffee."
"Yay! I've never tried coffee! Is it good?" Five just ignores me. Allison crosses her arms at Five.

"Do you even know how to drive?" She questions. Five faces her leaning forward a little.
"I know how to do everything." With that, he turns around and blinks us into the car.

"God damn it." I lean forward, holding my stomach from the nausea.
"Five you're supposed to warn me before you do that!"
"Didn't have time." He starts the car.
"Didn't have time, my ass." I wait for the pain in my stomach to go away until I speak again.
"You know, that was very cocky of you back there. 'I know how to do everything.'" I try to mimic his voice.
"Shut up. You're acting like a child."
"Do you expect me not to? I didn't have any sort of childhood. I was in a fucking coma dude. Didn't talk to anyone for years."
"Neither did I and you don't see me complaining."
"Whatever." I pause for a moment. "Im curious though. What did you see... in the future?"
"I'll explain it to you later."
"Why not now?"
"Because."
"Okay then."

We then pull into the parking lot of Griddy's Doughnuts. We used to sneak out and come here all the time. It was the only place we knew besides the mansion.

We walk in and grab a seat. Five hits the bell a few times.
"Calm down will you? The lady's... unclogging the sink." Five just rolls his eyes. Then a man walks in taking the seat on the other side of Five. Shortly after the waitress comes out.

"Sorry, sink was clogged. So what will it be?" She looks towards the man.
"Told you." I whisper to Five.
"Shut it." I just smirk at him.

"Mhm. Sure. Can I get the kids milk or something?" The waitress glances at us and then back to the man.
"The kids want coffee. Black and the other with two sugars and a creamer." The lady looks at us weirdly.
"Cute kids." She looks between us and the man for a moment. Five giving her a creepy ass smile. I nudge Five to get him to stop and look at the lady giving her a sweet smile.
"Sorry for my friend here. Thank you, ma'am." She looks at us one more time then goes to prepare what we asked for

"Damn, Five. Do you have to be so rude and creepy?" I hiss at him.
"Yes." He looks around and then at the man. "Don't remember this place being such a shithole. I used to come here as a kid. Used to sneak out with my brothers and sisters and eat doughnuts till we puked. Simpler time, huh?" The man looks around to make sure he was talking to him before answering.
"Eh. I suppose." The waitress then walks over.
"Here." She hands us our coffee and the man whatever he ordered. But she stands eyeballing us until the man spoke.
"I got theirs." He then hands the lady money.
"Thank you, sir." I nod towards him. Then five starts again.

"You must know your way around the city."
"I hope so. I've been driving it for twenty years."
"Good. I need an address."
