It was still quiet, neither of us speaking, when the door busted open. A bullet went through the wall behind us. Five shoved me under the table to avoid being shot. I slid my top back on and he buttoned his shirt and fixed his tie. "Are you okay," he asked. I nodded as another shot rang.

I looked over the table and there she was. The Handler. "You two just don't listen, do you," she laughed, "All I asked was that you two didn't get as close as you are." She shot at the table we were behind. Five grabbed my hand and stood. "All you did was control our lives," he yelled, "All this place does is control lives!" She gave him a smile and shot at him.

A bullet struck his side, going through. I screamed as he fell, bleeding out on the ground. "You fucking bitch," I muttered at The Handler. She smiled as I reached for my coat pocket. My knife was in there. I grabbed it and went running at her, stabbing her arm.

She stumbled back and pulled the blade from her arm. She laughed and hit my face with the end of her gun. My nose was broke. I felt it. I kicked her in the stomach when I regained my composure. She fell and I grabbed Five's hand and pulled him along.

I threw him into the car and started driving. "Do you even know how to drive," he asked weakly. "Nope!" I sped out of there and onto a highway. I had no plan on where to go. I didn't know where I was going. "Hey, dumbass," Five yelled, "I need medical help!" "Fuck, you're right." I drove, not very well, to a liquor store. Being under the legal age, I had to rob the place.

I came running out with bottles and yelled for Five to start the car, which he did. I jumped in and drove away as the owner yelled. "What the hell will liquor do to help," Five asked, clearly annoyed. "I don't know. My dad would drink when in pain. He was alcoholic though," I tried opening the bottle but I couldn't, "Here, open this for me."

"Great. I'm either going to die from your reckless driving or this gunshot and honestly, I'm ready," he said as he opened it. "How are you ready," I asked as I took a drink and swerved in and out of traffic. "I won't have to deal with you being a fucking idiot," he said while gripping onto the door, "Just take me to the Academy. I someone to help since you can't."

I got lost twice. "Since, I'm clearly going to die," Five said, "The apocalypse is coming in six days. I don't know what is going to cause it. I've been trying to figure that out." "What," I yelled in a panic, "How the fuck do you know?" "Time travel. I look eighteen but I'm actually fifty-eight." I coughed on my drink. "FIFTY-EIGHT? Five, I don't think this is right." "It's fine. You're legal." "But, that's a fourty year difference." "Just let me die," he groaned.

I eventually made it to the place. He wasn't dead. Yet. I knocked on the door. Monkey man, Luther answered the door. "What do you want? Where's Five?" "Dying," I pointed towards the car. He panicked and grabbed Five. I sat on the couch as Luther brought his brother downstairs.

"What the hell happened to him," Allison asked me. "The Handler shot him." "Why?" I couldn't say why she did. Oh, she did it because I fucked your brother. I couldn't say that, it's weird. "Just a grudge, I guess," I told her. Klaus sat next to and whispered, "I don't think it was a grudge." "Shut up" I whispered back. He laughed and took a drink from one of the bottles I brought with me.

When Luther came back up, Five was still downstairs getting fixed up by his mother. "Did he tell you guys about six days?" They all looked at me confused. "So he didn't tell you. Okay, basically, the world ends in ten days." "How the fuck do you know," Diego yelled at me. "He told me. Time travel. He doesn't know how though."

The room went silent. "Do we," Klaus started, "do we die?" "I don't know. He didn't say." I took a drink of my stolen liquor when Five came upstairs while yelling. "Fucking idiots! You all don't know how to do anything right!" He was stained in blood. "(Y/N) almost got me killed," he screamed at me. "You're the one who started it all," I yelled back. "And you all are just fucking stupid! The only one who is smart is Ben and he's dead!"

Five kept yelling for a while. "Okay, Five, we get it," I yelled, "We're all fucking useless." He went quiet. "If you would ever tell us anything, we would help," Vanya said, "but you're too busy having sex with (Y/N) and getting shot." "No one ever said we had sex," I shouted at her. "It's kinda obvious now because of that reaction," Klaus said.

"Here's the thing," Five yelled over us, "It doesn't matter what's already happened. The world ends in six days." "We know. (Y/N) told us," Diego said. "Not only that but we have the commission after me and her. Most likely you all too."

We all sat there and tried making sense of all of this until everyone left. The only ones there left were Luther, Five, and I. Luther went on about the moon until Five yelled at him to shut up and we all went to lay down.

Five told me I could sleep with him. He slept in his shorts and a tank top. He looked nice when resting. I've always seen him awake and stressed out. I laid behind him, crossing my arms in the shape of an "X" over his chest. He was cold. I felt his breathing as I drifted asleep.
