The Boy and The Psycho

Number Five

"-and helped you stop this thing." I awake to the booming of Luther's voice.

I sit up slowly and grab my head. Already feeling the hangover kicking in. I scoot over and snuggle into Five's side as they continue they're discussion.

"For the record, you already tried." Five states.

"What do you mean?" Luther questions.

"I found all of you." Five says looking from Luther then down to me. "Your bodies."

"We die?" I ask beginning to get more concerned than I was before.

"Horribly." 

Luther and I stare at each other for a second. Taking in the new information.

"You were together, trying to stop whoever it was that ends the world." Five continues as Luther and I stare into each other's eyes.

"Wait, how do you know that?" Luther asks breaking our stare.

"This was clutched in your dead hand when I found you." 

Five unwraps the eye from a cloth in his pocket and holds it up then tosses it to Luther.

"Must've ripped it out of their head right before you went down."

"Whose head?" He asks still examining the eye.

"Like I said, we don't know."

"Well, there's a serial number on the back. Think maybe you could try--"

"No, that's a dead end." I tell him and grab Five's hand and begin tracing circles on the back of it.

Five chuckles. "It's just another hunk of glass."

Luther hands Five back the eye and Diego busts open the door.

He stomps down the stairs angrily. "Piece of shit."

Luther rises out of his seat and I tighten my grip around Five's hand as we both sit up straight.

"Do you have any idea what you just did?" Diego shouts at Five.

Diego lunges at Five and I on the bed. Just as he is about to get to Five Luther grabs him and holds him back. 

"Nope, let me-- Get your ape hands off of me!" 

Luther lifts Diego off of the ground as he tries to attack Five.

"I can do this as long as it takes you to calm down." Luther says calmly.

Diego stops flailing around and looks at me. "Fine."

Luther drops him on the ground and looks at him. 

"Now, wanna tell us what you're talkin' about?" I ask as I stand up next to Luther.

"Well, sis, our brother's been pretty busy since he got back. He was in the middle of that shootout at Griddy's, and then at Gimbel Brothers, after the guys in masks attacked the Academy, looking for him." Diego points his finger between me and Luther's shoulders.

"None of which is any of your concern." Five says from his seat on the bed.

"I know, I was there." I tell Diego while ignoring Five.

"You were? Well, now it is my concern. They just killed my friend." Diego looks down at the floor.

Luther and I turn around facing Five and Diego stands behind me very closely.

"Who are you, Five?" Luther asks. 

"Because now you've dragged Fiona into it without her knowing the full truth." Diego says from behind me. He pulls me close to him and comes into the middle of me and Luther.
