The Blue Dancer //Book Two// - Umbrella Academy - COMPLETED

Valhalla

3rd Person POV

It's morning time

Vanya and Sissy were still in bed and Harlan was still asleep

Lilly sits at the kitchen table, drinking a glass of chocolate milk and looking at newspapers from the week

Not fun at all, but hey, what else can you do in 1963 Dallas? It's not like she had a phone on her

She looks through the paper and sees an advertisement...or rather a notice about a girl who had turned up and was missing away from her family...it was Vanya

Some part of Lilly hoped Vanya was looking for her as much as Lilly was looking for her sister...but Vanya didn't remember anything

Lilly stares into space with thoughts circling her mind

Beep beep

Lilly's focus is pulled and she looks up

She gets out of her chair and makes her way to the window, looking through

A man gets out a a car and starts walking towards the house

It must be Carl

"Uh oh." Lilly says

She turns and runs

She makes her way upstairs and gets to Sissy's room

She knocks on the door

"Your husband's home!" Lilly calls to the two in there

"Shit!" She hears from inside

Lilly leaves the hallway and goes back downstairs

"Oh, you should have seen it, honey." Carl says, excited. "He said, 'All the HoJo's in the Southwest District.' and I said, 'All the HoJo's?' cause I wasn't sure if I heard him right. And he said, 'Yup, all the Hojo's!'"

Lilly walks into the kitchen

"Vanya, did you hear the news?" Carl asks excited

Sissy turns around from the food she was cooking and sees Lilly there

"That ain't Vanya, Carl." Sissy tells him

"What're you talking bout?" Carl asks, looking back at Lilly. "She just...dyed her hair blue? What's with that?"

Just then, Vanya walks in behind Lilly

Carl's jaw drops

"Holy god..." Carl breathes. He looks back at Sissy. "There's two of em!"

"Yes." Sissy says with a slight laugh

"How did this...when did you...who are you?" Carl asks Lilly, putting his hand out to her

"Lilly Hargreeves." Lilly tells him. "Vanya's twin."

"Well I can see that." Carl says. "What's with the blue hair?"

"Oh, uh..." Lilly trails off, looking to Vanya

"Blue's kinda her color." Vanya says, shrugging

"You remembered?" Lilly asks

"Well, no, but you're blue all the time. You only wear blue and your hair is blue...context clues." Vanya says

"Oh." Lilly says, looking down

The twins move to sit at the table
Harlan sits across from Lilly playing Operation

"Well, twins, you are looking at the man who has closed the biggest deal ever for Waterton Shower and Shower Accessories Limited!" Carl tells the girls excited
