❝CERTAINLY DOESN'T SOUND LIKE A COOL VILLAIN.❞

Wednesday, 8:15 am
(... again)

"Lyra this is no time for jokes."
"Wait, wait, wait, wait..."

   Luther and Klaus said at the same time. Everyone looked at Klaus.

   "We, excluding Lyra, all died fighting this thing the first time around. Remember?"

   "Klaus shockingly has a point," Diego finally said something, "What gives us a win this time?"

Next thing you know a wave of electricity starts crackling in the air. Lyra was about to control it but stopped as Five came out of nowhere.

"Je- Jesus!" Allison screams.

"Five?" Lyra asks in confusion.

"Oh great," Klaus releases a breath of relief, "I'm not the only one who sees it."

"Five, where have you been?" Luther asks the boy.

Five rolls over, but before Allison and Luther catch in, Lyra comes and rescues him with het powers.

"Who did this?" Luther confronts. Five takes the coffee out of Allison's hand. "Irrelevant." And walks away.

Well... he limps... while sipping Allison's coffee.

He turns to look at the rest of the academy, plus Lyra.

"So, the apocalypse is in three days." He says. "The only chance we have to save our world is, well, us."

"The Umbrella Academy." Luther says.

"Plus Lyra," Klaus chimes in, earning a smile from the model.

"Yeah but with me, obviously." Five adds, Lyra mentally rolls her eyes. He sounds like a child.

Well... he does look like one.

"So if y'all don't get your sideshow acts together and get over yourselves, we're screwed."

The whole Academy, plus Lyra, were speechless.

"Who cares if Dad messed us up? Are we gonna let that define us?" The others didn't answer, well Klaus shook his head. "No."

"And to give us a fighting chance to see next week, I've come with a lead." He lifts up a paper.

"A paper?" Lyra says something. "Is it the secret formula to the apocalypse? How is a paper gonna help us?"

"It says who was responsible for the apocalypse." Five answers here question.
