CHAPTER SIX: SAME OLD, SAME OLD
---
Thunder was rumbling and it was raining when you and Five went outside to the courtyard with the rest of his siblings before standing in a circle.
You were standing on Five's left side as Klaus was standing on Five's right side.
Everyone except for Luther and Diego was holding a black umbrella each, except for Klaus who was holding an pink umbrella.
The familiar statue of Ben marked the courtyard, your eyes wandered to it almost instantly, an uneasy feeling forming in the pit of your stomach, you tried your best not to cry.
BEN HARGREEVES
MAY THE DARKNESS WITHIN YOU FIND PEACE IN THE LIGHT
Then you could feel someone grabbing your hand and you looked to the right to see Five looking at you "You okay?" he asked and you shook your head "I know you miss him, so do I" he said "I miss him a lot" you said and Five wrapped an arm around you, pulling you closer to him.
"Did something happen?" Grace asked and you all looked confused at her "Dad died. Remember?" Allison asked "Oh. Yes, of course" Grace said, looking down as her smile faded "Is Mom okay?" Allison asked and Diego looked at her "Yeah, yeah, she's fine" he said before looking back at Grace while Klaus pulled up a smoke with his free hand "She just needs to rest. You know, recharge" Diego said.
"Whenever you're ready, dear boy" Pogo said, looking at Luther who was holding the urn which contained their father's ashes.
Luther opened the urn before he flip it upside down causing the ashes to fell straight down on the ground, making a pile.
"Awkward" you mumbled while Luther looked around at the others awkwardly "Probably would have been better with some wind" he said before he looked at you "Y/n, you wanna send them off?" he asked "I think he's fine right where he is. Beside he don't deserve to be sent off" you said.
"Does anyone wish to speak?" Pogo asked, breaking the silence "I will" you said and they all looked at you "Reginald, you were a terrible father when you were alive. And you were a terrible father when you were dead. May you rot in hell, your heartless bastard" you said causing Five, Klaus and Diego to try to hold in their laugh.
"In all regards, Sir Reginald Hargreeves made what 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 said, cutting Pogo off and Klaus laughed at Diego's words.
"He was a bad person and a worse father. The world's better off without him" Diego said "Diego" Allison said "My name is Number Two. You know why? Because our father couldn't be bothered to give us actual names. He had Mom do it" Diego said.
