"Weird." i say as we walk up to the door, "12." "Five,
y/n. I've been waiting for you two." she says in a singy tone. I follow five as he walks through the door, i shut it after i get in behind him. I look ahead, that old woman from the doughnut shop was tired up onto a chair that sat across from the heart shaped water. "You must really like doughnuts." he says. She starts to shout through tape, "Help me!" is muffled. I sigh, "It's been a while." The handler says. "Three days." he says, "For you, maybe. But for me, it's been a lot longer since i've seen those adorable little shorts." i scrunch my nose up at her words. "Well, you've had time to heal." she sighs as she rises up. "Luckily, for us, time.. is the one thing my organization has an abundance of." she says, walking down the steps. "Got your message, by the way. Nice packaging, but so much for commission protocol." She chuckles softly, "There have been.. a lot of changes since you left the commission." she says, walking closer and closer to us. "You really did some damage." she stuffs a chip into her mouth. "The briefcases we're all but destroyed, to say nothing of it, highly trained personnel you killed. After all, what is an institution if not for-." he cuts her off, "What do you want?" "To be happy. To have a simple.. unfettered life, to.. do the work my superiors require. But.. your being here, well, it complicates all that." she says as she walks over to sit down on the couch. "Billions of people are going to die tonight." i say, the woman starts whimpering. "You can change that." i say.

"Tonight, tomorrow. So little different in the scheme of things." she puts her hands out in a shrugging possum. "Don't you remember the commissions raison d'etre? What's meant to be is meant to be, or, as i like to say, que será, será." "It's bullshit in any language." five says, "Why did you call us here?" "I wanna offer you a choice." i sigh, "Everyone's going to die tonight, but... unlike the rest of the world, you two have a way out." she smirks. "You can abandon your family and skip ahead to the apocalypse, take a walk about for a few decades wondering if i'll come back and offer you a job again, or you can stay here, with your family, and.. die a horrible death." she laughs as she smiles. The woman starts whimpering again. "While you weigh your options, just know your siblings are fighting for their lives without you." "You brought us here to pull us away." he says in realization. "It's been nice knowing you, Five and y/n." he grabs my hand as he spatial jumps away.

We land in the middle of the theatre, the sound of the violin playing filled the room, apart from the shooting. "What's with all the lollygagging?" five asks, walking down the rows. "Five! Get down!" Luther shouts, i duck but wince in pain as something sharp hits me in the shoulder. "Ah, fuck." i shout. "Shit, y/n." he mutters, looking at my arm. "Stay down." he says, peaking over the seats. "Five- what the- i thought you bailed on us?" "I had an errand to run." The feel of liquid running down my arm was cold and terrible, as well as the pain throughout my arm. I reach to take off my jacket before wrapping it around my shoulder and arm, tying the sleeves as tight as i could. "You know these guys?" "Yeah, i do." "And?" "Well.. we're screwed." Five says, looking back at the armed men. "Guys! It's cha-cha!l Klaus shouts as he rushes in. "It's cha-cha- she-." "Klaus! Get down!" Klaus quickly sucks down. "Stay." he says as he spatial jumps onto one of the guys backs, "get down!" i couldn't help but feel sick to my stomach, but something catches my eye.

I reach up a bit to see Klaus, and.. ben? Suddenly tentacles reach out of him, swinging and grabbing at the men, crushing and killing them. My mouth widens, "Holy shit." I grin, but it's taken away as i notice cha-cha walking in. Diego quickly charges at her, i look around for five. "Five!" i shout, i finally spot him rising up between rows of seats. "Oh, my god." "It's him, ben." He continued swinging the men until they were all dead, letting his tentacles crawl back inside of him, he quickly disappeared. My breath was hitched, and i quickly look to my side as i noticed a bright blue light. "Vanya." Her suit was turning white, so was her violin and bow. The building was rumbling and the material was crushing and falling. The music got increasingly louder, and blue shined from Vanya.

"Are you okay?" he asks, shaking me lightly. I nod slightly, "Fine." "Oh, welcome back. Where were you?" Luther asks, looking over at Diego. "Honoring a memory. So how do you wanna end this thing?" he shouts out. "We surround her. We come at her from all angles." "So it's a suicide mission." "I guess so." i respond to klaus. "Bud, but one of us could get through. It's the only chance we've got." "Are we all in?" "Yeah." "All right. Allison?" she shakes her head, "Stage left. Stage right." he says. "You guys take the front." I follow after Five, who ran and ducked behind a row of seats. I swallow the lump stuck in my throat, "Now!" Luther shouts out, everybody charges at her, five spatial jumps, and i slowly but swiftly do the same, re-locating in front of her. She swipes her bow left, causing us to all fly back, but quickly stop mid air as we're all being held by white lines coming from Vanya. I gasp for air before gritting my teeth as i feel the force of being pulled in closer. I feel a fear make it's way down, my body was in excruciating pain. All i felt was a burning sage flood throughout me, causing me to gasp for air i could hardly get. Suddenly i disconnect before falling down and hitting the floor. I gasp for air once more, but faster and faster i grip for it. I can hear the others scatter to their feet as they run towards Vanya who was now lying in Allison's arms. I couldn't move, i mean, i could, but i didn't want to. My body ached, and so did my arm especially. I felt too weak to rise, "Is she alive? She is? Yeah?" "Oh, thank god." "We did it. We saved the world." i shake my head slightly.

"Y/n." five says, dropping to his knees next to me, "You alright?" he asks, reaching for my hand. "No, actually. Never been worse." i grin and he sighs, It goes silent for a moment, and i sit there as i take in the silence. I find balance on my knees as five lifts me up, i inhale and exhale deeply. "Uh.." i look over to see Klaus staring up, causing me to look in the same direction. "Guys?" i look up as i notice the larger, burning rock heading towards us. I groan, "It never ends does it?" "You see that big moon rock coming towards us?" "That's not good." luther says, "No shit." i glare at him. "So this is it, huh? So much for.. saving the world." he finishes after pausing. "If only Sir Reginald could see us right now, huh? The umbrella academy." "A total failure." "Atleast we're together at the end. As a family." "This doesn't have to be the end." Five says, everyone looks back at him. "What? What are you saying, five?" "I think i have a way outta here. But you gotta trust me on this." he says. "Yeah, i don't think so." "No." "Well, then we might as well accept our fate because in less than a minute, we're gonna be vaporized." "I'd listen to him." i say "What's your idea then?" "We use my ability to time travel, but this time i'll take you with me." "You can do that?" "I don't know. i've never tried it before." he responds.

"What's the worst that can happen?" "You're lookin at it, a 58 year old man and woman inside a child's body so there's that." he scoffs. "Oh, what the hell? I'm in." "Yeah, whatever. I'm in." "Me too. Allison?" he looks in her direction before nodding. "What about ben?" "Great, yeah, he's in." "Ok, great. Letter, grab Vanya." five says, they all reach in to help her grab her. "wait, should we be taking her? I mean, if she's the cause of the apocalypse. Isn't that like taking the bomb with us?" "The apocalypse will always happen and Vanya will always be the cause unless we take her with us and fix her." everyone is silent for a moment, exchanging glances. Five grabs my hand as i grab Diego's with my other hand. It goes in a circle of everyone holding hands. Five squint his eyes, blue electricity fills up in a ball, he shouts as the blue waves get bigger and bigger around us. "It's working!" luther shouts. "Hold on! It's gonna get messy!" I glance around, only to notice everyone in their younger bodies, please end like this.
