"She was a genius of sadness, immersing herself in it, separating its numerous strands, appreciating its subtle nuances. She was a prism through which sadness could be divided into its infinite spectrum." - Everything is Illuminated

A girl who's mental health deteriorated over the years as she struggled to cope with the loss of her brother and the trauma of their childhood. 

Now, a grown woman living a dreary, monotonous life with her service dog alone and the occasional night out with Klaus, but nothing much else - finds out her siblings waited THREE DAYS to tell her that Five was back, and alive. 

She's already at the end of her tether. 

And then her brother tells her the apocalypse is coming.

On the first day of October 1989, forty-three women around the world simultaneously gave birth. None of the women showed any prior signs of pregnancy. Sir Reginald Hargreeves, eccentric billionaire and adventurer, made it his personal mission to find and adopt as many of these children as possible. He got eight of them with that one set of twins that maybe came from the same mother but in appearance, they were as different as anyone could be. Number Four and Number Eight...often used as the main subjects of experiments when it came to power. Sir Hargreeves' main focus was however on the young Number Eight which eventually led to the girl disappearing in the storm of her own powers. But what if she somehow comes back after the death of her father? What if she gets reunited with her twin and what if the boy she thought she lost and who she used to have a crush on came back as well with the news of the nearing Apocalypse? Season 1 ✔ Season 2 ✔ Heya, I decided to write this as I am quite obsessed with TUA for some time now and I picked up enough courage to write a fanfic about one of my ideas. I do hope you will like it As I said this is just one of my ideas so there is a possibility I will write another TUA fanfic in the near future. And now a bit of a TRIGGER WARNING this fanfic contains mention of blood and violence and other stuff basically like the serial itself. I don't own anything or anyone just my OC...okay that's about it...enjoy.

Well his kind of twin but they don't know that. They can't seem to put two and two together. I mean there are lots of clues, almost the same powers and same looks, you would think they would of figured it out by now. But I guess having Five disappear does cut your investigation short. Until he comes back and brought with him a whole world of trouble for all the siblings. *** Started-2/3/19 Finished-10/3/19
