Light jazz music was playing in the background as Five lead his family minus, Stan, Diego and Klaus over to the bar.

You and Five was standing behind the counter in the bar while Five was giving them a glass short each.

Viktor, Lila and Luther was sitting by the front of the counter while Allison was standing by the counter.

Every 30 seconds, Five would glanced at you, making sure you didn't get Kugelblitz.

"So this Kugelblitz, it's...?" Viktor asked "The end of everything" you said "Every rock, every star, every atom sucked into a radiant black hole" Five said "Randomly collapsing matter every moment in time across all existence till nothing's left" Lila said "It's like someone press the reset button" you said.

"Hate to say I told you so, but..." Five said as he picked up a bottle of whiskey "It's your favorite phrase, Five" you said as Viktor and you took a sip of your glass while Five took a sip from the bottle.

Lila picked up her glass before she looked around to see if she could spot Diego but she couldn't see him and she put down her glass on the counter.

"You know, it's impressive. Whoever knocked off your mums, hated you all enough to end the entire univers" she said "We don't know that" Viktor said as he shook his head.

"It doesn't matter who created the thing. We just have to kick its ass" Allison said "Oh really? How?" Luther asked and Allison glanced at him "Are you and Diego gonna punch it in the Kugel?" he asked before he took a sip of his glass.

"Good one" you said before you and Luther highfive.

"Beside Allison, it's not that simple. A Kugelblitz is probably one of the worst anomalies there is. Takes more then a few punches for it do disappear. I don't even think the manual has something on this. Does it, Five?" you asked "Not that I know of" Five said.

"The best plan is to go back in time and eliminate the paradox" you said "And destroy whatever it was that took out our mothers and stop the Kugelblitz before it starts, but we can't do that" Five said "Briefcase is kaput" you said and Allison turned her head to Five "And why the hell can't you just jump us out of here?" she asked and he looked at her "Last time I tried that, we all got trapped in time. Do you really wanna risk that again?" he asked but Allison didn't answer.

"What's plan B?" Viktor asked "Don't know. Maybe find out where the Kugelblitz is" you said "And then what?" Allison asked "We don't know" Five said.

Then Klaus came over to you all "Gimme that" Klaus said as he took the bottle from Five.
