Dysfunctional ~ F.Hargreeves

65} Our Powers Are Back!?

(Start playing A Tender Curiosity for a cute little moment)
Five looked around at his surroundings, confused out of his mind as to where he was.
"Oh, there you are, Darling," Jenna rounded the corner, "I was looking all over for you."
"Where are we?" Five asked curiously.
"Our home, silly," She giggled and tugged him outside with her.
They exited what he assumed to be the dining room through a set of glass sliding doors out onto a beautiful back patio.
"Wow," His eyes widened as he took in his beautiful surroundings.
"I know right. It's all I've ever wanted," Jenna took a deep breath of her surroundings in and looked out at the water that buffeted against the shore line in their backyard, "Man, the Outer Banks are just stunning, aren't they?"

"This is a dream, isn't it?" Five let out a sad sigh, realizing everything seemed too good to be true.
"Yeah, you caught me," Jenna gave him a heartbreaking smile back, "I just wanted to see you again if I'm being honest."
"Why didn't you stay when Sy brought you to me?"
"I have other things to worry about right now, Sweetie," She caressed a delicate hand down his cheek.
"I can help," He leaned into her touch, "You know I can."
"Not right now you can't. Don't worry about me, though. I promise everything will be fine and you'll see the baby. I am past my due date, you know."

"How have you not delivered yet? It's been six years."
"I'll explain everything later. I promise," She leaned her forehead against his, "For now, you need to wake up."
"I don't wanna leave you..."
"You need to, though, Bubs. Small word of advice: don't trust Sy and don't take that Marigold. Okay? Can you do that for me?"
"I'll try. Please don't leave."
"I have to. I love you, Pocket Watch."
"I love you, Thunder Storm. Stay safe."
"Always. See you in your next dream. Just one of the perks of traveling through minds," She gave him a peck on the nose and disappeared.
(Stop music)

BEEP!

That stupid, fucking alarm clock.

BE-

Five slammed his hand down on his alarm and immediately grabbed his head due to the pounding headache that lingered there. He ran to the bathroom and threw up right as he reached the toilet. He wiped his mouth with some toilet paper and finished by swiping away the abundant sweat that coated his forehead. Everything in his system felt off. He wondered for a brief moment if it could've been Jenna's dream meddling, but she'd done it before and he'd never had a reaction like that. Once he felt stable enough to stand up and walk around, he made his way to work and started to investigate Sy Grossman along with his device to teleport Jenna.
"Sy Grossman?" His assistant walked in, "He checks out. He's a legit taxpayer."

"I'll be damned," Five stood up and instead of making his way over to the projector, spatial jumped into a weird subway.
"What the..." Before he could investigate more, he jumped right back.
"You feeling okay, Mr. Five?" His assistant peeked their head back in to check on him.
"No, I don't think I am," He croaked out and grabbed his coat, "Tell boss I'm taking a sick day. I already puked earlier and I have a feeling it's not gonna get better."
"Um..." Five brushed by the assistant, "Okay then. Hope you feel better, Mr. Five."
"Ugh!" He grabbed his stomach and ran to the bathroom to puke again.
I guess this is how Jenna felt with all of the morning sickness.

All of the Hargreeves started to arrive back at the Academy after another meeting was called.
"Someone explain what the hell is going on here real quick," Viktor demanded while Lila and Diego fought in the background.
"Well, Viktor," Five grunted, "That's what we're all trying to figure out."
"Oh god, don't look at me," Luther tried to shield his hairy gorilla body, which he'd regained, from his siblings.
"No one's blaming you, Luther," Diego tried to comfort him.
"No!" Luther exclaimed, "I mean, don't look at me! I'm hideous!"
"Look, at least you're back to your old self," Five said, "The rest of us feel like someone injected motor oil into our veins."
"It's so strange," Klaus commented, "Because I, for once, feel fantastic."
"Yeah?" Lila challenged, "Well, you think you got problems? Look at this."
