As we rushed down, we saw Diego, Luther, and Pogo in the hallway. "What happened?" I asked, confused, my voice raised over the noise. "Did the explosion come from...?" Klaus came out of his room. "Vanya. Get to safety. Leave the Academy!" Pogo urged us. We exchanged glances and headed towards the exit with Diego and Klaus. "Think of Mom!" Luther called after us. The Academy began to shake, and explosions erupted.

"Rose, watch out!" Five shouted, trying to help us get out of the Academy as quickly as possible. Everything was collapsing and breaking apart. We made it outside safely, and I gasped for breath, clutching my wound as it started to burn. Five placed his hand over mine. "You have to hold on, okay? I promise you'll get to rest afterward." His voice calmed me, and I nodded.

Suddenly, the Academy was completely destroyed. Five pulled me into his arms, shielding me from the falling debris. "That's it for our house," I muttered. "Shit," Five echoed, looking around before spotting a newspaper. He picked it up, and I glanced over his shoulder. Our eyes widened. "This can't be happening."

We ran over to our siblings, who had gathered nearby. "Guys! The apocalypse is still happening! We didn't stop it. It's happening today," I said. "But you said we fixed it," Luther replied, confused. "I was wrong, okay? On the day I landed in the future, I found this newspaper with these headlines," the boy explained, but Diego shook his head. "That doesn't mean anything. Time could've changed after the newspaper came out."

"No, listen to me! I assumed the Academy was flattened along with everything else. But it's still standing. The moon is still there. The Earth is still intact, but the Academy isn't." Klaus grabbed the newspaper from Five's hands and murmured, "Confusing."

"Then listen to me, you idiot!" Five shouted. "Vanya destroys the Academy, even before the apocalypse. I thought Jenkins was the cause, but he was just the trigger. Vanya is the bomb. She triggers the apocalypse."

Suddenly, helicopters flew overhead, and sirens wailed. "We have to find her," I urged. "First, we need to get out of here, now!" As the police arrived, helicopters spotlighted us.

"We'll meet at the Super Star!" Five grabbed my hand and teleported us to the Super Star bowling alley.

Luther sighed. "We might not have a choice, Allison." "Nonsense. You always have a choice," Diego countered. Five turned to Diego. "Yeah? And what choice do we have?" Diego shook his head slightly, "I don't know."

"Whatever we do, we need to find her first. She could be anywhere." Luther stood up. "Or... here. Look at this." We all gathered around Klaus as he held up the newspaper with Vanya on the front. "Right. Her concert is today," I noted, but we were interrupted when a woman approached us.

"Hi. I don't like to interrupt, but my manager says if you're not bowling, you need to leave." She shrugged, her smile fake. I gave her a matching smile back. "Whose turn is it?" Diego asked. "Bite me," Luther muttered, throwing a bowling ball. "Wow, Luther actually did something. He got a strike," I said sarcastically.

Allison held up a note that read: "She is our sister."

"Only we can stop her. And we owe it to Dad, I think," Luther's voice was serious, but Diego rolled his eyes in annoyance.
