Gone 2 Long (Number Five)

The Day That Wasn't

Hi 👋🏻 It's me again. this chapter is gonna be really short cause i'm starting from the end of last chapter then starting it off just before Five comes back which is like the last 3 minutes. I was to lazy to do the whole episode so sorry in advance i'll make this chapter as long as I can.

That night I went home and I decided to hang out with Delores. I went some place where me and her could be alone and forget all this craziness.

I took me and her to the island and I showed her around the place I called home for 16 years. I showed her my hut, my favorite hang out spots, and my garden. All while I was drinking the night away.

After a few hours I was done showing her around and took us back to the Academy. Then I went to Five's room and passed out 'drunk as a skunk' is what Diego would call it.

And I woke up the next morning with a massive hangover but took some Aspirin and went to the family meeting.

WEDNESDAY. 8:15 am (...again)

"Hold the phone." Klaus said. "We all died fighting this thing the first time around. Remember?"

"Klaus, shockingly, has a point. What gives us a win this time?" Diego said.

After he said that some weird thing appeared out of no where and shortly after plop there was Five.

"Je-Jesus!" Allison yelled scared out of her mind. I just stood there processing what I was seeing.

"Am I still drunk? Am I seeing things?" I asked them.

"Yeah what she said. You guys, am I still high, or do you see him, too?" Klaus said.

I finally processed that what I was seeing was real and ran to help him off the bar.

"Five, where have you been?" Luther asked as I was trying to help him in his stumble off the table.

"Are you alright?" Allison asked.

"Who did this?" Luther asked.

"Ok, ok, we get it he's been missing I got questions for him too but give the dude some fuckin space damn." I said.

"We're just trying to figure out what happened to him Scar." Luther said.

"Irrelevant." Five said as he grabbed Allison's coffee from her hand. He gulped it down fast.

He then pulled me too his side I guess not forgetting what he said to me the day before. I kissed his cheek in reply and he gave me a small smile.

"So, the apocalypse is in three days. The only chance we have to save our world is, well, us." He said.

"The Umbrella Academy." Luther finished.

"Yeah, but with me, obviously. So if y'all don't get your sideshow acts together and get over yourselves, we're screwed. Who cares if Dad messed us up? Are we gonna let that define us? No. And to give us a fighting chance to see next week, I've come back with a lead." He said holding up a piece of paper.

"I know who's responsible for the apocalypse. This is who we have to stop." He handed the paper to Allison.

I walked to my siblings to read it. Allison she read it aloud.

"Harold Jenkins?"

"Who the hell is Harold Jenkins?" Diego asked. Five just slurped more coffee saying nothing. I walked back up to him and his arm wrapped around my waist again.

"Clearly he is responsible for the apocalypse as Five just said." I told them is a duh tone.

"You know what I meant Scar." Diego said to me. "Now who is he Five?" He asked.

This was gonna be a long day...
