"What?!"

Five lead me through the rubble to an opened up area.
I looked around, I didn't want to believe what I saw.
Lying around us were five dead bodies.

"It migh not be them, we have no proof-"

Five cut me off.
"But we do have proof."

Five walked to one of the bodies, I followed.

The body was a man, about 30 years old.
He had dark, scruffy hair and a little facial hair.
He was wearing a colourful t-shirt with a denim vest jacket, the rest of him was covered in concrete.

Five grabbed his arm and showed it to me, there was an umbrella tattoo.
The same tattoo all of us got when we were about 12.

It was Klaus.

"Wait, you said there's five, which means someone's missing."
I said.

"Vanya"
Five replied.

"I couldn't find her body anywhere"

"Does that mean she might still be alive?"

"That's highly unlikely"
Five sighed and stood up, still looking at Klaus, lying still on the ground, all life completely drained from his body.

Five started walking away to examine the rest of our family.

I crouched down next to Klaus's body and held his hand in mine.
I noticed he had new tattoos on his hands, the word hello on his right hand and goodbye on his left.
I looked at the ghost charm on my charm bracelet Five gave me, the one the represented Klaus.

Klaus was my second favourite sibling, Five will always be my favorite, seeing him like this was something I never thought I would need to see.
He was always so happy and ... loud, really REALLY loud.
He would never shut up, no matter what you do.
There was one time he was completely silent though...

*CRASH*

"Oh my God, Klaus"
Vanya yelled.

Five and I finished the dishes and ran to the bottom of the staircase wear Klaus was spread across the bottom of the stairs, Blood dripping out of his mouth and nose making a small puddle of the wooden floor.
Vanya was a few steps up from where he was lying, she was running down the stairs when we arrived.
Allison, Luther, Diego and Ben showed up a few seconds later with mum and pogo.

"Everyone out of the way"
Pogo said as the rest of us stood back.

Mum crouched down beside Klaus.
She turned around.
"Luther, could you carry Klaus to the medical room for me?"
She said.

Luther nodded.
He picked up Klaus and carried him away with mum.

We all turned and looked at Vanya.
"What happened?"
Allison asked.

"He tripped we were while cleaning and fell all the way down the stairs"
Vanya replied.

"Hmm... I wonder when Klaus will learn how to walk properly"
Five said with a smirk.

I looked down, trying not to laugh.

"Why are you all standing around still?!"
We all looked up to see dad standing at the top of the staircase.

"Klaus is gone now, get back to your chores immediately"

"But y/n and I finished the dishes"
Five said.

"The find something else to clean or do"
Dad replied before disappearing back into the second floor of which he came.

Everyone went back to their chores and left Five and I standing at the bottom of the staircase.
I looked at Five.

"So... what do we do now?"

He looked at me and looked around.
"Well... we could clean up the paddle of blood Klaus left for us"

We both looked at the blood in front of us.

I sighed.
"I'll go get the mop"

I walked away to get the mop and Five and I cleaned up the blood.

The next day

"So, what happened to Klaus?"
Diego asked, we all looked at Klaus who had wires around his head, clamping his jaw shut.

"Mum said he broke his jaw"
Luther replied.

"He'll be wired up for thw next six weeks"

Diego's face lit up.
"Six entire weeks of peace from Klaus's constant talking!?"

Klaus tried to talk but the wires stopped his mouth from opening.

We all looked at him and yelled of excitement, throwing our hands up in the air.

"NO SPEECH FOR SIX WEEKS"
Five and I yelled together, high five and laughed.

Year : 2019

I held Klaus's hand close to my chest, tears streaming down my cheeks.
All I wanted was to hear his
His voice one more time, I didn't care how annoying his voice was, I just wanted to hear him speak... just one word.

"Y/n!"
Five called.

I quickly wiped my tears and looked up at him.

"Ye-yeah?"

"It's getting dark, we need to find a place to sleep."

I stood up and made my way to Five.

Once I got to him, we started walking, I don't know where yet, but we were going somewhere.
