Modern time
I walked to my room and opened the door. To my surprise it looked the same. There was no dust and everything was clean. I plopped myself on to the bed and started to doze off.

I woke up to someone shaking me. "What! Why are you shaking me?" I said in a sleepy voice.
"Ok Alaya if I tell you what's wrong, you promise not to freak out?" I shook my head confusingly.

"Ok?" Diego sighed and gestured for me to go to the mirror.
I shrieked as soon as I looked at myself.
"Why am I my thirteen year old self again?!" I started to feel my hair as I stared at myself in the mirror.
" I don't know I-" Diego tried to talk but I storm out of the room. I was so scared I didn't even know Diego was till talking.

Ok I need to calm down. I know I look like a FRICKING THIRTEEN YEAR OLD... you know what imma go clear my mind.

I grab my bag and leave the academy. I was walking towards griddy's doughnuts until I saw someone else in the same school outfit I was in.
I walk towards that person and to my surprise it was five!

I was so happy but angry at the same time. I tapped five on his shoulder. He turns around and gasps.
"Alaya?" He jumps up and was about to hug me but I slapped him in the face. Tears was starting to fill my eyes. "What was that for?" He holds his red check.

But I missed five so much and I pulled him into a tight hug. I started to breakdown on his shoulder. "W-where have you been five?" We pull away from each other. " you left me by myself for 17 years five!" Tears were streaming down my face.

"I-I am sorry I didn't know this would happen. I didn't mean to leave you." We both say down next to each other.
I wiped the tears of my face. " I've missed you."
We both sat down on the two stools.

It was awkwardly quiet until Five vigorously pressed the bell. Someone walks the the door. An old shaggy man placed himself next to five.
"Hey five...how have you been?" I broke the silence.
"Oh I am great." Five says with a straight face.
I could tell that five was hiding something from me he is my best friend.

"What did you find in the future?" He turns to me with a sad expression on his face.
"Five are you ok?" I asked worried. "Yeh um about that... the world ends." I froze in shock and fear. I didn't know what to say I was speechless.
"Oh o-ok..." The waitress Agnes eventually came out to serve us.

"Sorry sink was clogged... so what'll be?" The old man pauses for a second to think.
"Uh, give me a chocolate éclair." The worker turns to us. "Mhm sure. Can I get the kids a glass of milk or something?"
"The kid wants coffee. Black." Five scoffed. I nudged five to give respect to the worker.
"I'll have a cup of tea. Thanks." I smiled at her.

"Cute kids" the worker chuckles nervously and walks off.
"Don't remember this place being such a shithole." Five said. "We used to come here with all our brothers and sisters." The old man looks at him weirdly.
The memories of them started to to flood her brain. All of the good times... and the bad.
I was out of focus, five and the man continued to talk.

Agnes walks in with our orders. Five was rummaging through is pockets to find change. "Don't worry it's on me." I place down the money for five and I. "No take it back." He grabbed the money and shoved it back in to her pocket.
"No I insist." We continued this until the man eventually paid for us.
"Thank you" I said smiling at him.

"You must know your way around the city" five was inspecting the mans logo on his jacket.
"I hope so. I've been driving it for 20 years."
Five took a sip of his coffee. "Good. I need an address .

The man left the shop and it was five and I alone... again. It's was still awkward as in I just found my missing brother. We both took a sip of our beverages in sync.
"So five what was that address for?" I ask curiously. "Oh this it's for something."

I felt a gun pointing at my head. I turn around to see many people dressed in black bonding weapons. Five and I looked over at each other for reassurance. I knew what five would do so I was clenching my cup ready for five's signal.

"That was fast. I thought I'd have more time before they found me." Five was ready to grab anything close to him.
"Okay so let's all be professional about this, yeah? Both of you on your feet and come with us they want to talk." The man dressed in black says. I wondered in my head "who the hell is he talking about?"
"I've got nothing to say" five sounded so innocent.
"It doesn't have to go this way. You think I want to should a couple of kids? Go home with that on my conscience?"

I knew that five would kill them all. "Well I wouldn't worry about that. You won't be going home." I said looking up at the guy.

Five grabbed the knife I stabbed the man in the throat. I grab the cup and smash it onto the other mans head leaving him unconscious. Bullets were flying everywhere. I jumped onto a mans back and cracked his neck.
Five blinks onto the table. "Hey assholes!" They point the gun store five.
"Over here bitches!" I call out making them turn around to me.

Five blinks next to be and grabs one of the mans gun and shoots one of them. He blinks in between two of them making them shoot each other.
Five went to sit down on the stool and grabbed a knife. I noticed that on the the men were still alive so I went over to him and cracked his neck again.
"Who were those assholes?" I ask out of energy.
"They were people who are after me. Hey can you cut open my arm I have a chip in there."
I looked at him in confusion but did it anyways. I took out the chip with my telekinesis. He fixing his tie and then we blink away.
