Lila: Watch me. 

Luther: Lila!

(Lila walks away towards her family, ignoring Luther calling after her.)

Lila: Okay. Come on, everyone.

(Lila's family, along with Claire, Grace, and the twins run to Lila, gathering around her as they grabbed her hands and put hands on her shoulder.)

Lila: Stand around me, okay? 

(Five and Y/n looked at her with disappointment. She knew the risks, she knew the world would just end again if she went with them. She was solving nothing.)

Five: Lila, don't do this. 

(It was a last ditch attempt to get her to see reason but she looked back at him like he wasn't even there.)

Lila: Hold onto me. 

(Once she did a quick check to make sure everyone was holding on, she blinked. In a flash of purple light she and the rest of them were gone. Y/n looked at Five.)

Y/n: We can't let her get on that train. 

Diego: What do you  mean you can't let her?!

Y/n: Diego, I know you love her, but she is as much apart of the problem as we are. She goes with them, the world will end again, and we don't know if there will be another way out. She's putting everyone at risk. 

(Diego looks like he's about to cry but he shakes his head.)

Diego: I just want them to be safe.

Y/n: I know, but if Lila goes with them, we can't guarantee that they will be. 

(Diego just nods and Y/n goes up to Five.)

Y/n: We have to try and stop her.

Five: How are we supposed to change her mind?

Y/n: I don't know, but we have to try otherwise, we will die for nothing. We have to get to the station before the train come.

(Five nods at her and grabs her hand. In a flash of blue light they both disappear, leaving their family in silence.)
