A/N~ For this part, it will include the older Five's lines as well. 


-"Do you remember that, uh, little mansion just outside the city limits? Where we--[chuckles] Yeah. Yeah, well, it turns out the wine cellar was untouched. Picked up a few cases of your favorite Bordeaux...Ah, that's an exaggeration. I don't drink too much...You know, I work hard all day. I--Why would you even say that?"-

***

-"I can't give you the exact hour, but...from what I could gather, we have four days left."-

-"It wouldn't have mattered"-

-"For the record, you already tried."-

-"I found all of you...your bodies"-

-"Horribly"-

-"You were together, trying to stop whoever it was that ends the world"-

-"This was clutched in your dead hand when I found you. Must've ripped it out of their head right before you went down"-

-"Like I said, I don't know"-

-"No, that's a dead end. [chuckles] It's just another hunk of glass"-

"-None of which is any of your concern"-

-"They work for my former employer. A woman called The Handler. She sent them...to stop me. Then, soon as Diego's friend got in their way, well, fair game."-

-"That would be a mistake, Diego. They've killed people far more dangerous than you."-

-"Well, it's a long story."-

~the future~

-"Who the hell are you?"-

-"Tell me why I shouldn't put a bullet through your head right now!"-

-"I don't understand"-

-"You saying that I...I could actually leave here? [stutters] Go...Go back?"-

-"If you can alter time, why not just stop all of this from ever happening?"-

-"That's insane. The end of everything?"-

***

~the present~

-"They turned me into the perfect instrument for rehabilitation of the time continuum. Or 'corrections,' as they called them. I wasn't the only one. There are others like me. Beings out of time, fractured, extracted from the lives that they knew. I don't know how they got there. But I do know that none of them were as good as me."-

-"They didn't realize it, but I was biding my time, trying to figure out the right equation so I could get back. If I could just get back, I knew I could stop the apocalypse. Save the world. So I broke my contract."-

-"Yes."-

-"No code. We took out anyone who messed up the time line."-

-"It was the only way I could get back here."-

-"Jesus, Luther, grow up. We're not kids anymore. There's no such thing as good guys or bad guys. There's just people, goin' about their lives. But when the world ends, all those people die, including our family. [sighs] Time changes everything."-

***

-"You okay?"-

-"[chuckles] More than one, from the looks of it."-
