Five was holding a huge bowl of cereal as he was walking down the hallway with you close to him.

He had refuse to leave you out of his sight as he was still scared what Reginald would do to you.

He knew what people was capable of doing if they are desperate, and that a person with nothing to lose and everything to gain is dangerous.

"Does this mean that we're going to die now?" you asked and Five looked at you before he nodded.

I see it in your eyes
You're losing all your light
Each day feels longer than the day that came before

"But don't worry, we will see each other again in whatever afterlife there is" he said.

You can't see a way out
You've run out of time now
You've lost your heart inside this war

"Does it hurt, dying?" you asked "It's faster than falling asleep" he replied "We will be dreaming?" you asked "I think so" Five replied.

Never give up, don't give up now
There's still hope in the darkest hour
Never give up, don't give up now

"Will I see you in the afterlife?" you asked "Of course you will" he nodded "And there we will be together forever" he said.

I'll take this pain for you
I will pull you through
I'll be with you 'til the end

"I don't want to die" you said "I know Cupcake, but sometimes it isn't really up to us. And don't see it as dying, seeing it as leaving this world to be in a new and maybe even a better one. See it as you are going on an adventure" you looked at him.

Through the fire and rain
I will be your strength
I'll be with you 'til the end
With you 'til the end (oh)
With you 'til the end (oh, oh)

"But I promise you that you are not gonna die alone and scared or in pain. I'm going to be with you, all the time, and we're gonna go down together" he said "Will I feel it when it happens?" you asked "No. Not this way" he shook his head.

"It will go fast and you wouldn't notice it happening. The only thing you will feel is my arms around you. And then you will be in the afterlife" he said "Will you be there?" he asked "Of course. We will all be there together, you wouldn't be alone, not for a minute" he said and you smiled "Will my parents be there?" you asked and he nodded lightly.

When your fears are not fading
And there's parts of you breaking
I'll hold the pieces all together with my hands


You looked down before you let out a quiet sob.

Though the night feels lonely
I won't leave you behind me
Deep inside I know I can't

"Hey" Five put down the bowl before he walked over to you and crouched down so he was in eye level with you.
