Beyond The Clock || Number Five x Raven (fem reader)

CHAPTER 7

Raven sat down on the other end of the sofa and looked at Five's arm. "Is that blood?"

Five looked at the wound as well. "It's nothing."

"Why are you here?"

"I've decided you're the only one I can trust."

"Why me?"

Five thought about his answer before saying it. "Because you'll listen. And I think you could actually help me."

Raven sighed and stood up, walking to the bathroom. "Okay." She grabbed some supplies to clean and fix the wound on Five's arm and came back.

"Show me your arm." "Why?" "Because you're bleeding and I don't want your blood on my sofa."

Five looked at her.

"I don't want to see my siblings hurt. Let me clean it up for you." She said softly.

She put antibacterial on a cotton pad and softly rubbed it over the wound.

Five was staring a her, but quickly stopt when he realized he did.

"When I jumped forward and got stuck in the future, do you know what I found?"

"No." Raven said.

"Nothing. Absolutely nothing."

Raven looked in his eyes. What does he mean 'nothing'?

"As far as I could tell, I was the last person left alive. I never figured out what killed the human race, but... I did find something else. The date it happens."

"The world ends in eight days, and I have no idea how to stop it."

Raven had no clue what was going on. Is the world really ending in eight days? If so, how would she be able to help him?

She was left speachless. The only thing she could say was: "I'll put on a pot of coffee." And with that she left to the kitchen, leaving Five behin in the living room on the sofa.

~*FLASHBACK OF FIVE WANTING TO TIME TRAVEL*~

Grace put on a record player and ringed the bell. This ment it was time for dinner.

The children came running down from the stairs and walked to their seats.

Luther was sitting next to Diego, next to him sat Raven. Next to Raven was Five sitting. On the other side of the table was Allison sitting in front of Luther, next to Allison was Klaus and next to him was Ben. Vanya was on the end of the table, next to Ben and in front of Five.

Sir Reginald Hargreeves walked in and took place on the head of the table.

"Sit." He said. The siblings sat down.

Everyone was busy eating. Luther was giving Allison lovey dovey eyes. Diego was carving something in the chair with his knife, and Raven watched him do so. Klaus was rolling a new cigarette, and Ben was reading a book.

Five looked like something was on his mind, but nobody noticed. Untill he smashed his knife on the table. Everybody stopped with what they were doing and looked at Five.

"Number Five?" Reginald asked.

"I have a question."

"Knowledge is an admirable goal, but you know the rules. No talking during mealtimes. You are interrupting Herr Carlson."

Five threw his untensils on his plate. "I want to trime travel."

"No"

"But I'm ready. I've been practicing my spatial jumps, just like you said."
