Gone 2 Long (Number Five)

Man on the Moon

Well it's the next day and Five still hasn't come back from his little adventure or whatever he's doing.

My stomach is bruised and my forehead has a knot from the pool sticks that bitch jabbed me with. As for the bullet to the shoulder. I was just lucky it grazed the top of my shoulder and all I had to do was stitch it up.

I changed into a navy blue t-shirt tucked into a fake leather skirt with my fake leather jacket and heeled combat boots. And walked out of my room.

As I was making my way toward the staircase I heard voices. It was Allison and Luther standing around mom. I walked over to see mom dead.

I was never really close to mom but I still cared. "They did this to her. All to get to Five. Well too bad they won't live long enough to find him. If I see them they are dead." I said walking down the stairs.

I decided to go to the courtyard to exercise my powers.

First I started by fixing up the plants cause God they were looking ugly. I gave them water. I used the wind to get rid of the leaves that littered the place. I then froze the ground and did a little skating and then to melt it I started a fire and put it out with water.

I decided that was good enough and walked into the house. I saw Luther and Diego walking together.

"I'm assuming purely on the fact that you too are together and not fighting that you two are going to look for Five." I said. They nodded. "I'm coming with you." They didn't dare protest.

So we walked to Five's van.

"This is it. He's still here. This is Five's van." Luther said as we walked up to the van.

Luther tried opening the door to no avail. Diego then took one of his knives and picked the lock and the door opened.

Both of them tried going in at once which didn't work.

"I'm one." Luther said. Getting in as Diego unlocked the back door.

We both got in and searched the van. There was no sign of Five.

"Well during the shoot up at our house I popped Delores here and she isn't here now so Five has been here after the shoot up. But that's the best I got." I said

Diego was looking through a book and then whistled. We looked at him.

"I know where to find Five." He said holding up a public library book with lots of math equations written in it.

We got out of the car and walked to the library. We got there and walked in and holy shit it was huge a whole four stories.

"Let's split up." Luther said. "Wow. Good thinking." Diego said sarcastically.

I went with Diego. Though I did have an appreciation for Luther now he still wasn't my favorite.

We were at the top floor and still no sign of Five anywhere.

"Anything?" Luther asked. "No." Me and Diego said.

"You wanna know why I left?" Diego asked Luther.

"What? What are you talking about" Luther questioned.

"Why I left the Academy." Diego said.

"Yeah, cause you couldn't handle me being Number One."

"No. Because that's what you do when you're 17. You move out, become your own person, grow up. Scar here got lucky and got to do it at 13." I glared at Diego.

"Don't glorify being trapped and alone on an island for over 16 years. I never got to have a life or grow up. Mention it in any sort of happy positive way again I'm gonna grow the thorniest vine I can and have it throw you at that wall." I said pointing to the wall.
