Ch. 8

Vanya arrived at her place and opened the door along with the lights.

Only to be surprised by Five who opened the lamp, waiting in the dark with Amura who was looking at him in disbelief.

"Jesus!" The woman exclaimed, almost having a heart attack because of the two.

"You should have locks on your windows." The boy said with his legs crossed.

"I live on the second floor." His sister stated while leaving her belongings on top of the cabinet.

"Rapists can climb." The green eyed boy replied that made Amura roll her eyes at him.

"You are so weird." Vanya said as she closed the door.

"He really is... we used his power to get inside by the way." The brunette agreed which earned a glare from her partner.

"That makes more sense." The woman just said and sat down beside the girl.

"Is that blood?" She asked, looking at her sleeve then at her brother.

Amura was taken aback while Five just looked at his wound, "It's nothing."

Vanya was worried but decided to just ask, "Why are you here?"

Her brother sighed before speaking, "I've decided you're the only one I could trust." He stated.

He then took a glimpse at the girl, "Within the family..."

The brunette had asked him earlier why they'll be stopping by Vanya's place.

And he stated that, "Out of all my siblings, she's the only one I think I could trust and help us... I'm just hoping that she'll listen and understand me."

"It's not that I don't trust us both to stop the apocalypse, but it's better to get more hands on this situation..."

"I thought Vanya has no power." Amura stated confused.

Five was out of words. He can't explain why he wanted to tell Vanya all the information about the apocalypse but the girl finally understood.

"Nevermind... I already know." She told him.

Five love his family to the point of only thinking of wanting to save them from the apocalypse for 45 years, and so he would like to at least one of them to understand him. One of them to know the difficulties that he experienced.

He didn't need a helping hand with the apocalypse, he needed a helping hand with his own thoughts and feelings.

He was probably going crazy back there, that it really affected him until today.

"Why me?" Vanya asked.

"Because you're ordinary." Five answered that earned a kick on the shin by the girl which he groaned at.

The boy sighed out of pain and changed his sentence, "Because you'll listen."

His sister looked at the two teens before saying, "Okay." Then she rushed to her bathroom to get some disinfectant, cotton and bandage from her medicine cabinet.

Then she returned to the couch with the things she brought while Amura and Five pulled their sleeves up for access.

The woman inhaled sharply when she saw their wound closely before she started to disinfect the brunette's wound first.

Who didn't even winced or showed any pain.

"When I jumped forward and got stuck in the future, do you know what I found?" The boy asked to his sister while observing the two.
