Flashback
3rd POV
"Sorry I'm late!" (Y/n) called out as she threw her school bag on the couch and quickly dug through it for her training clothes.
Reginald sighed, "Hurry it up, Zero, you're already behind the others. Number Five is waiting upstairs. Go begin practicing your bubble shield."
Yes, even ol' Reggie accommodated to calling (Y/n) 'Zero.' He found it more convenient to refer to her as a number like the others during training.
(Y/n) quickly ran to the nearest bathroom and changed her clothes. When she had finished, she tied her hair back and splashed some water in her face. In all honesty, she wasn't having a great day. Scratch that. She wasn't having a great week, overall. Bending over the sink, she sighed and tried to erase any thoughts from her head.
'Right. Focus on training.'
"Finally," Five huffed, "What the hell took you so long?"
"I lost track of time, sorry..." (Y/n) mumbled in response.
(Y/n) loathed having to practice with Five, but Reginald insisted that this was the best way for her to master creating and moving shields around other people. He was heavier that Allison, Ben, and Vanya, but lighter than Luther, Klaus, and Diego. Plus if she ended up dropping him, he could easily space jump and avoid certain death.
"Let's get this over with." Five said as he positioned himself near the balcony. "Don't drop me."
(Y/n) took a deep breath and held out her hands. A bubble messily formed around Five, flickering on and off, then disappearing completely.
"What the fuck was that!?" Five frowned.
(Y/n) shot him a glare and tried again with no avail.
"Jesus, are you even trying today?" Five rolled his eyes, "Why aren't you focusing?"
"I am focused!" (Y/n) argued, although it seemed like she was trying to convince herself rather than Five. She held her palms out once more but still failed.
"Bullshit."
"You're not helping, Five!" (Y/n) yelled angrily, shoving Five back.
"How am I even supposed to help you? You're hopeless. You can't even focus on forming a simple bubble." Five sneered in (Y/n)'s face.
"Stop being an asshole."
Five laughed sarcastically, "I will when you stop waisting my time."
That was the last straw for (Y/n) and she grabbed ahold of Five's collar. Unfortunately, at her sudden actions, Five lost his footing, taking (Y/n) over the ledge with him. He immediately wrapped his arms around her and teleported them to the dining room.
"Are you INSANE!?" He scolded, "You could've gotten us both killed, dumbass!"
"You're right. I'm sorry." (Y/n) mumbled.
