Having searched the whole library for Five and Angelica, the two brothers were beginning to get very aggravated as they turned up empty handed as they regrouped together on the top floor of the library.

"Do you ever stop talking", Luther genuinely asked Diego in annoyance, sick of hearing his voice.

"Where are their parents?", a woman's voice piped up, her question carrying from around the corner.

Not replying to Luther's previous question, Diego walked off in the direction of the voices that were coming from around the corner.

"Wow, that was easy", Luther ironically spoke to himself, following after Diego who'd walked off.

"I'm gonna call security", a new voice belonging to another woman decided, the two women then walking away and past Luther and Diego.

The two turning around the corner after the women and stopping as they were met with the sight of Five sprawled out on the ground with both of his arms wrapped around Angelica and the top half of a mannequin, and an empty bottle of whiskey laying on the floor next to them.

"Are they--"

"Drunk as skunks", Diego cut off Luther with a side smirk on his face, finding humor in seeing the almighty Five wasted.

"So, how do we go about this?", Luther asked his brother, looking between the two teen like adults and the hunk of plastic.

Not answering Luther's question, Diego stalked forward toward Five and Angelica's unconscious body's and kneeled down in front of them, tapping Fives leg slightly and getting a huff in return from the half asleep boy...man...still not too sure on that one.

"You can only keep one, Stud", Diego reasoned to the highly intoxicated Five, a chuckle in his voice as he told him this.

Sleepily mumbling some sort of gibberish, Five just tore his arm off of the plastic mannequin and turned onto his side as he then clutched onto Angelica with both hands, curling himself into her.

"Well...", Luther coughed in surprise, having not expected that, though on further thought they had been pretty close in the van earlier.

"I'll take the doll", Diego then insisted to Luther, reaching down and picking up Delores from the ground quickly, walking away and leaving Luther behind to deal with the other two, Five and Angelica.

Walking through an alleyway, both Diego and Luther were holding the people and top half of a mannequin in their arms as they were trying to think on what to do and where to go next, Five and Angelica both blacked out in Luther's arms while Diego carried Delores in his.

"Well, we cant go back to the house", Luther stated the obvious to Diego as they tried to theorize on where to go so they could let Five and Angelica wake and sober up before questioning them. "It's not secure. Those psychopaths could come back at any moment."

"My place is closer", Diego told him, adjusting his grip on Delores. "No one will look for them there."

Belching in his arms, Luther glanced down to see Fives eyes blinking up at him as the boys?...mans? grip tightened around Angelica.

"If you vomit on me", Luther warned Five after hearing his belch.

"You know what's funny?", Five ignored Luther's warning as he belched again, preparing to monologue them. "Ah! I'm going through puberty. Huh. Twice. And I... I drank that whole bottle, didn't I?", he now questioned himself on his own actions.

"Well, that's what you do when the world you love goes bye-bye. Poof, it's gone", he drunkenly ranted to his two brother, huffing out air as he said poof. "What are you guys talking about?", he then mumbled with less enthusiasm.

"Two masked intruders attacked the Academy last night", Luther enlightened him to their most recent predicament that Five had missed out on.

"They came looking for you. So I need you to focus", Diego told Five seriously turning to face them, having to walk backward as he snapped his fingers in Fives face to attempt to get his attention. "What do they want?"

"Hazel and Cha-Cha", Five said with some pizzaz to his voice answering him vaguely.

"Who?", Diego's brows raised at the peculiar names of the attackers.

"You know I hate codenames", Luther grunted.

"Ah, the best of the best", Five hummed as he thought of the two commission lackies. "Except for me, of course", he praised himself, gloating to them as always.

"Best of what?", Luther asked, not too sure if he really wanted to hear Fives answer.

"You know, Delores always said she hated when I drink. She said it made me surly—"

"Hey!", Diego snapped, cutting his tangent off as they all then stopped in the middle of the alley.

"Hm? Yeah?", Five mumbled back having not been entirely listening.

"I need you to focus", Diego told him strictly, leaning down to meet Fives hazy eyes as he questioned. "What do this Hazel and Cha-Cha want?"

Five didn't reply to Diego's question, seeming to find some type of humor in it as he just stared right back into Diego's eyes with a creepy smile plastered on his face.

"We just wanna protect you", Diego tried to get through to him, glancing slightly to the still passed out Angelica. "The both of you."

"'Protect me.'", Five spat back at him. "I don't need your protection, Diego. Do you have any idea how many people I've killed?", he rhetorically asked him, not waiting for his answer.

"No. I'm the Four frickin' Horsemen", he nick named himself, waving his arms around in the air loosely. "The apocalypse is coming!", he called out loud to them in an omen.

Belching once more afte this statement, Five then turned his head back over Luther's arm and vomited, throwing up which then awoke Angelica finally.

"Eugh!", she moaned out in disgust, trying to push herself as far away as she could from Five while being held in Luther's arms on top of him.

"Well, we know now who holds their drink best out of the two", Diego laughed, mostly at Luther's misfortune.

"Oh, i'm not drunk", Angelica informed him and Luther, sadly having zero alcohol running through her veins, she was stone cold sober.

"What!?", both Luther and Diego spat out to her shocked.

"Yeah, Five won't let me drink", she answered sleepily to the two of them with a pout, not too happy herself with not being able to drink either.

Holding up a finger Five then belched out. "It's because she is on meds", he declared in his own defense as to why he wouldn't let her drink any alcohol, beginning to drift off back to sleep.

"Why am I even carrying you?", Luther questioned Angelica, though he didn't receive an answer from the girl as she'd already fell back asleep in the short time.

Leaving Luther then to huff out loud at the annoying girls antics which in turn had Diego laughing at his expense as the two adult looking teens fell back asleep in each other and Luther's arms.
