Althea

After our run in with Allison and Luther. Five guided me to his room. Well more like I followed him. As we get in he looks up at me and shakes his head and looks back down to start packing up Delores in a bag.

"Woah, where do you think you're going now? Who were those people? Because by now, I've gathered enough information to realise those weren't security guards." I tell him closing the door and taking a seat on his bed.

"You need to explain, Five." I say with pleading eyes. "You have all the time in the world." He looks at me with shock at that statement.

"We hardly have six days left. We don't have all the time in the world, Althea. We're running out of time." He says with a smart angry voice. I look up at him in confusion. "The worlds ending? Is that what you're telling me?" I ask as he sits down on his desk in front of me. "Yes. Yes I am." He tells me with a smile.

"How do you even know?"

"I don't have the time to explain to you. You wouldn't understand. None of you would." He tells me. He grabs his bag and takes off out the window. I walk out of his room defeated and hear him starting a conversation with Klaus. I close his door and head to the kitchen.

When I get to the kitchen, I see Luther and Allison at the table. While mom stares off into space. She smiles as she sees me walk in.

"Mom, what were you going to say?" Allison asks. Mom looks back at her and then me "Eggs are ready." Mom says and I sit down at the table and Allison and Luther look over to me.

"Are you asking mom questions to see if she did it?" I ask them as mom sets down the plates for us to eat. They look at each other and back at me.

"If that's the case." I say taking a bite of my bacon, "Then you're wasting your time." I tell them getting out of me seat to walk over towards Luther's spot and drink his orange juice. "You could've had Allison's- wait he do you know about what we're doing?" Luther asks confused all of the sudden.

"Allison didn't try to accuse me of killing someone." I tell him setting down the glass watching him scoot it over back towards me. "Plus why wouldn't you ask a robot who knows everything that happens in this house?" I ask him walking out to see what Klaus was doing.

"What the hell are you doing in there Klaus?" I ask him peaking over the trash bin to see him digging for something.

He looks up at me in surprise "Nothing. Nothing. It's nothing really just doing some nice spring cleaning." He tells me standing up in the trash.

"Looks like you're looking for dad's dumb box." I tell him leaning against the trash bin.

"How do you-" I cut him off. "Because Pogo thought I took it." I say looking back at him. I look behind him to see Ben.

"Ben? Where the hell have you been?" I ask him surprised. "Been here the whole time. This guy hasn't been here mentally." Ben says pointing at Klaus. "That's why you haven't seen me in a while." He says looking back at his book.

"Anyways, this was fun, but I got to go pick up something. So you better find that thing before Pogo makes me." I tell him and start walking towards my car. "Bye Ben." I wave getting into my car.

--------
I walk into imperial woods and walk over to the back. "Hey Leonard, I'm here to pick up my chair-" I look over at the girl who's back was turned towards me. "Did you finally get yourself a girl?" I ask him as she turns over at me.

"Althea, shut up. Oh my god." He tells me chuckling. "Vanya?" I ask shocked

"Althea? What are you doing here?" She asks looking at me and then back at Leonard. "How do you two know each other?" She asks.
