~Harper's POV~

I finally found my mother and now she's missing.....

And it's all my fault.

I let out a sad sigh before there is a knock on the door "Hey," Five says softly as he enters the room "Luther made breakfast." "Thanks, but I'm not hungry right now." I sigh. Five frowns at me...it's weird to think he's my dad. He looks only 9 years older than me.....

"I told you, don't worry about (Y/N). She's tough, I sure she's fine." Five says, flashes me a hopeful smile. I look down "So what did Luther make?" I ask "Pancakes." Five grins. I grin back and stand up "I'll eat 1 or 2." I say, making Five chuckles.

~Meanwhile~

(Y/N) drags her feet as she walks on a quiet street. Only sounds were (Y/N) growling at anyone that happened to stare at her for too long.

Her head throbs as she finally reaches her destination. A lady greets (Y/N) with a bright smile "Hello, how my I help you?" She say. "Coffee." (Y/N) croaks, lifting herself onto a stool. The lady studies (Y/N)'s blood stained clothes "Hm...rough morning?" The lady asks, walking over to the coffee machine "You don't know the half of it," (Y/N) chuckles with an annoyed tone "I'll take that cup to go."

"Where are you going in such a rush?" The lady asks, handing (Y/N) her cup. (Y/N) could tell that the lady was judging her.....and it made her blood B O I L.

"Oh you know," (Y/N) says with a annoyed grin "I have to go talk to the lady that drugged me, retrieve what she promised me, take a shower because I am COVERED in blood, find all 5 of my siblings that are scatter around Dallas, find my husband and my 4 year old daughter, get us home, and prove my worth to everyone-so is it to much to ask for a d*** to-go cup?!"

The lady stares at (Y/N) before picking up a phone "Ugh.....pause." (Y/N) groans. Everything freezes and (Y/N) hops down from her stool "I wonder if I should kill you..." She mumbles, grabbing her coffee cup and head towards the door "Hm, nah-rewind." (Y/N) looks around in annoyance as time moves backwards around her "Play."

(Y/N) then walks out the door like nothing happened.

~Back to Harper and Five~

"Where'd Uncle Batman and Uncle Luther go?" I ask as Five stares at me. "What?" I ask nervously "She used her powers..." Five mutters, looking around "(Y/N)?" I ask. Five nods before standing "Where are you going?" I ask "WE are going to find (Y/N)." Five says, I stand up and smile weakly at him "Ok, let's go." I say before giving Five a pouty look.

Five raises an eyebrow before sighing and then chuckles. I grin when Five leans down "Hop on." He chuckles, I beam and climb onto his back.

~Time Skip~

We made it back to the restaurant to look for clues, but I couldn't help but blurt out a question.

"I am supposed to call you Dad now?"

Five stops and turns to look at me with a shocked expression "I just wanna know." I say with a shrug "I know....I know," Five says "I'm just not used to being a dad. You've seen how ours is." "Well....I think you and (Y/N) are pretty good parents, even if I show found out that you were my parents." I say with a smile. Five smiles at me "It might takes some getting used to, but yeah, I think you can call me Dad now." He says. I grin playfully "Alright Dad, then let's continue to look for Mom-man that is weird to say." I giggle, Five chuckles "It's weird hearing it."
