Copycat {Number Five Fanfic}

6. Pity Party

Diego's place
3rd person.

Five woke up with a huge headache and no clue where he was or how he had gotten there. He rolled over on the hard bed to see Luther sitting in a chair by the bed. "Morning pukey."

He laughed at Five. Five rolled his eyes as he had figured out what happened last night. "Ha Ha, very funny." Five out his feet to the floor feeling all groggy.

"Last night was something huh." Luther tried to ease his way into the subject.

"I don't really remember." Five rubbed his head as if it was going to make his headache dissolve.

"You told us a lot." Luther Chuckles as he watched Five become uneasy.

"Like what?" Five asked curiously, preparing himself for shame.

"Well, you want to have kids with Iris, you have killed lots of people, and there's an apocalypse on its way." Luther said making Five face palm himself, then groaned in pain and rubbing his head again.

"So I covered most things." Five looked at his hands.

"So when's it supposed to happen, this apocalypse?" Luther asked in disbelief.

"Well I can't give you the exact hour, but from what I can gather we have four days left." Five said shamefully.

"Why didn't you say something sooner?" Luther started to get defensive.

"It wouldn't have mattered." Five's hopes were gone.

"Of course it would, we could have banded together and helped to try to stop this thing." Luther didn't understand.

"For the record, you already tried." Five's voice was soft and slow as he spoke, unaware if the information of their deaths would affect Luther's look on the matter.

"What do you mean?" Luther sat back a little, knowing Fives words would impact him. Five looked for a way to tell his brother.

"I found all of you, your bodies." Luther looked in concern.

The rooms vibe changed after Five had said this. "We died." Five's face held pain as he watched his brother process, as Luther looked away in shock.

"Horribly, you were together. Trying to stop whoever it was that ends the world." Luther looked back at Five curiously.

"Wait, how do you know that?" Luther asked curiously.

"This was clutched in your dead hand when I found you." He tossed the eye to Luther.

"Must have ripped it out of their head, before you went down." Five waited to continue.

"Who's head?" Luther asked him eagerly.

"Like I said, I don't know." Five shrugged.

"What's to serial number on the back, maybe you could track it?" Luther hadn't known that's what Five had been doing all along.

"It's a dead end, it's just another hunk of glass." Luther handed back the eye. Diego threw the door open.

"That piece of shit! Do you have any idea of what you just did?" Diego charged the two, going to walk passed Luther but being grabbed in the process. Diego kicked his legs and swung his arms trying to get out of Luther's grip. After name calling and yelling Luther finally put Diego down. "Our brothers been pretty busy since he got back. He was in the middle of that shoot out at Griddy's. Then at Gimbel Brother after the guys in masks attacked the academy looking for him." Diego was furious.

"None of which is any of your concern." Five had seemed annoyed with what Diego had said.

"It is now, they just killed my friend." Diego's eyes watered. "Who are they Five?" Five's brothers stared down at him.
