Y/n: What happened?
Diego: It was dad.
(There were tears in his eyes, which concerned Y/n. Whatever happened had to have been bad.)
Y/n: What?
Diego: Dad killed Ben.
(They all went silent. They knew Reginald Hargreeves was a monster, but murdering their brother? That seemed too far.)
Y/n: What happened?
Diego: We were sent on a mission to stop a Moldovan arms dealer. Dad claimed he had a "deadly weapon. It was being held in a shipping container before it was bought and dad sent us to destroy it. He told us we had to keep the weapon contained and not to open it. When we found it, we were preparing to blow it up when guards found up. Ben said he could handle it so we went to fight the guards. When we got back, Ben was on top of the container. He has heard someone inside and opened the lid. He found a girl inside who said her name was Jennifer. Ben wanted to help her. He got her out but before we were going to leave, Dad showed up, and shot them both.
(Five and Y/n looked at each other in shock. Dad killing Ben coupled with the realization that he was in fact her father made the extremely overwelming. The weather began to shift as rain began to pour from the skies. As quickly as it started, it stopped, but the ground began to shake as the pain turned to rage. Her eyes shined red for only a moment but as the red faded her eyes still showed anger. The ground shook as the doors to the house flew open and Y/n rushed inside with Diego and Five close behind. When they got back to the room they found Allison, Luther, and Viktor screaming at Reginald as Reginald tried his best to justify the actions of the "other" him.)
Luther: You are no diffrent than the other Hargreeves!
Diego: You're both fucking psychopaths!
Y/n: You're a monster.
(For some reason, that hurt him. He just stared at Y/n looking sad and for the first time Y/n was almost convinced he did have emotions... almost. Abigial stepped in front of her husband protectively to stop any more insults.)
Abigail: It's not his fault. Reg is not responsible for what happened to your brother and that poor girl. I am.
