▪︎ It's Not Her Fault ▪︎

|So I decided to skip some parts because this is when the storyline starts to change. We'll be at the part where we're trying to save Alison. To the part where shes stitched up.|

"Luther let me help! I think I can fix her." I don't know how I fixed my arm last time but I do remember that I made my arm start working again. Maybe I could do that with Alison and get her voice working again. It can't hurt to try.

"How are you going to fix her? Her vocal cords could be permanently damaged." Luther crossed his arms. Before I could say anything we heard a whimper. It was Alison. Luther rolled over to her and held her hand. She needed to say something, I grabbed a note pad and handed it to her.

She wrote "VANYA." Luther and I were both confused because we didn't know where she was. Then she wrote "POWERS."

"Wha-" Pogo came out of the darkness.

"It's time I tell you the last of your fathers secrets."

Alison and I were sitting in the lab. ( IDK what to call it, where she got fixed)

"I think I can fix you." Her eyes widened and she wrote, "How?"

"Last time I did it I was touching the wall, maybe if I put my hand around your throat it'll work?" She shrugged. I put my hand around her throat and thought about healing her. Vines wrap around her neck and she tilts her head back.

"Y/n?! What are you doing?!" I heard Luther say. It did look like I was strangling her.

"I'm fixing her! Or attempting to." She puts her hand on my wrist and smiles slightly. I get pulled off of her by Luther. My vines getting sucked back into my arm. I feel weaker than before. Allison then began writing.

"What's wrong with you? First Vanya now you! Why are you trying to kill her?!" Luther was angry. Allison threw her note pad at his head. I feel dizzy I look an Allison to see that the scar is gone. I rush over to her.

"Can you talk?!" She shook her head.

"I can try again but that took a lot of energy out of me." She shook her head. She wrote, "Don't do it if it's going to hurt you." I nod my head.

"Speaking of Vanya, she came over wanting to see if you were alright. I took care of her." Luther said.

"What? Where is she?!" I exclaimed. Allison cocked her head in Luther's direction.

"I put her in the basement, in the chamber dad used to keep her in." He reported.

"So you mean to tell me that you put our sister in a place that she was hidden when she was a child when you know that she just found out about her powers recently?" Luther nodded his head. "She doesn't need to be locked up, she needs our love and support you fucking imbecile!" I ranted.  Allison wrote, "Take all of us to her, now."

Vanya was laying on the cold hard floor. Luther brought Diego, Klaus, Allison, and I all down to see her. She wakes up and starts panting. I try to run over to the door but Luther grabs me.

"Watch it, buddy." Diego scolded Luther for putting his hands on me. Vanya soon runs over to the door and starts banging on it. She was distressed but the sound is inaudible. It honestly made me want to cry.

"You locked up our sister because she has powers." Diego seems a bit skeptical.

"Pogo has always known, along with Dad."

"Why would they hide this from us? I mean am I the only person that didn't even know that this place existed?"

"Dunno, maybe because she's stronger than all of us. I didn't know this place existed until now. This place shouldn't even have existed in the first place." I cross my arms as Vanya is still banging on the door. She looks at me, she's giving me these eyes that say "please help me." Then I get an idea. I signal her to wait a moment. Vanya nods slightly.

"He hid so much from us." I put my hand on Klaus's shoulder.

"He hid it because he was afraid... of her."

"Our father was nothing but a coward who couldn't handle someone as strong as Vanya, it's all his fault she doesn't understand it's his fault she's like this. Before all of this happened she was the sweetest girl ever. Maybe if she had help from the begging this would have never happened." I chimed in.

"Yeah I agree with Y/n, this is Vanya we're talking about! The girl who cried if we stepped on ants as kids."

"It's difficult to accept--" Luther started, "It's not difficult it's impossible to accept."

"They are right we can't keep her without proof." Diego put his hand on my shoulder making sure I don't attack Luther. Luther looked dumbfounded at what Diego just said. "Wha--what more proof do you need?"

"How about I just open the door and ask her? Maybe we can actually find out if she's as dangerous as you're making her out to be." I reach for the door,  but Luther grabs my arm and pulls it away.

"Yo man what did I just say to you?" Diego goes to face Luther ripping his hand off from my wrist. Diego intertwines his fingers with mine. Then Diego's caring side came out.

"Even if you're right, she still needs our help, and we can't do that if she's stuck in a cage." This shows he genuinely cares about her.   

"Yeah and for all we know she might be struggling, with this new power. It must be scary, maybe even terrifying."

"Luther, don't you remember what it was like when you turned into Mr. Monkey man? Wasn't that scary?" I asked him.

"This is different, I never tried to kill anybody."

"Everybody deals with things differently, Luther."

Allison then finally writes " Let her go." Luther goes on about how he can't do that.

"She stays put." Diego grabs my hand and drags me upstairs. Allison is being carried away by Luther. I need to save her.
