Y/n: I die in every timeline?
Booth Five: So far? Yes. I mean, look around. 30 or so Fives and you are the only Y/n. Most of the Five's here lost their Y/n's years ago.
Y/n: And you?
(Booth Five gave a sad smile.)
Booth Five: We had found one of the other 43 children that were born that day. He had the power to control dark matter. He wanted to take over the world. My Y/n tried to stop him and she did, but she died during the fight. Their battle is what destroyed the world.
Five: How many of the other Y/ns became the queen of the elements?
Booth Five: As far as I can tell, she's the only one.
Five: (turning to Y/n.) So what makes your death different?
(Y/n pauses and thinks for a second. She died, at least her body did. So what separates her from all the others? Why did she become the Queen when no one else did?)
Y/n: Marigold.
Five: Marigold?
Booth Five: What about it?
Y/n: The marigold is what teathered me to my human body. When I died, the marigold was taken out of me because of Dad's machine.
Five: You didn't die with Marigold in your body so you were no longer stuck on earth.
Booth Five: It's possible.
(The table goes silent for a minute until Five starts to get up.)
Five: We need to get back to our family. We need to stop this from ever happening.
Booth Five: Well, good luck with that. (Five grabs Y/n's hand and they both walk towards the door.) Guess tou don't want your brisket to go?
(Five and Y/n get back on the train and it only takes them one stop to end up back at their own timeline. Before they blink back to the academy they look at each other.)
Y/n: So this is it. After all the battles we fought, everything we've survived. We just have to let the world end.
Five: I guess so.
Y/n: So it all meant nothing?
Five: In the Grand scheme of things I guess not, but even if our existence does cause the end of the world. I'm lucky enough to have gotten to send that time with you. So yeah, us saving the world over and over again only bought us a little more time, but it was time we had together, so it was worth it.
(Y/n kissed him deeply, stealing the little more time she could with him before the end.)
