'Is anyone truly innocent?'


I rubbed my eyes trying to adjust to the light. I didn't know how long I was sleep for. I looked seeing Five still working on more equations.

"Nice dream?" 

"More of a flashback than a dream," I said standing up and wrapping my arms around his chest.

"About?" he asked still writing on the wall.

"When you first asked me to date you," as I spoke Five stopped writing and I saw a smile grow on his face. 

Five spun around so he could hold me. "You took that chance."

"I took that chance," I smiled giving him a kiss.

When we broke apart I started helping with the equations. 

"Oh, I think i've got something Delores," Five spoke up after a while.

I walked over to him looking at the problem. "It's tenuous but promising," I smiled.

Just then I started to hear foot steps. I looked over at the door to see Luther walking in. 

"What is all this?"

"It's a probability map," Five answered.

"Probability of what?" 

"Of who's death could save the world," I said jumping down off the bed. 

"We've narrowed it down to four," Five pointed to the wall.

"Are you saying one of these people causes the apocalypse?"

"No, I'm saying that their death could prevent it."

"oh... I'm not following," Luther whispered looking at me.

"Luther, time is fickle. The slightest alliteration in events can lead to massively different outcomes in the time continuum. As The Butterfly effect," I explained.

"So all we have to do is find the person with the greatest probability of impacting the timeline, where ever they may be, and kill them," Five added.

"Milton Green. So who's he? A terrorist or something?" Luther asked, walking closer to the wall.

"I'm pretty sure he's a gardener," I said shrugging my shoulders.

"You can't be serious," Luther said looking at me in disbelief.

"Look, this is madness, guys. You- W-where did you get that?" Luther asked when Five pulled a gun out from under his bed.

"In dad's room. I think he used it to shoot rhinoceros, it's similar to the modal we used at work."

"Nice, shoulder fit and highly reliable," I said making him nod.

"But you can't. This guy Milton is just an innocent man-"

"You don't know that," I said cutting Luther off. "Is anyone truly innocent?"

"It's basic math. His death could potentially save the lives of billions. If I did nothing, he'd be dead in four days. The apocalypse doesn't save anyone."

"We don't do this kind of thing-"

"We are not doing anything. Amelia and I are," Five said.

"I can't let you two kill innocent people, Five. No matter how many lives you'll save."

"Well, good luck stopping us," Five said walking away.

As I went to follow him Luther suddenly grabbed me by my neck hanging me out of the window. 

"You're not going anywhere," he threaten.

"Mettimi giù! Lutero!" I yelled as he tighten his grip. I felt myself struggle to breath. (Put me down! Luther!)

"Put. Her. Down." Five threatened pointing his gun at Luther.

I felt my eyes water as he held on tighter to my neck. This was going to leave a mark.

"Put the gun down. You're not killing anyone today. I know she's important to you, so don't make me do this." 

"Go-god damn it Luth-Luther p-put me the fuck do-down!"

"It's either her or the gun. You decide." Luther said making Five's hands began to shake.

Suddenly Luther let me go. As I started to fall Five immediately spatial jumped and successfully caught me.

"I can keep doin' this all day."

"You're a good person, Five. You risked everything to get back in to save the world. No man would risk that."

"Fuck you," I mumbled as my anger started to bubble over.

 "There is one way. But it's just about impossible." Five sighed.

"More impossible than what brought you two back here?" 

I didn't think negative of Luther but him hanging me out the DAMN window made me dislike him. And hearing him talk wasn't making it any better. So I used my power to throw random things in Five's room at him.

"Ow what the fuck!" he groaned rubbing his head.

"Ecco cosa ti prendi per avermi appeso fuori da una fottuta finestra!" I yelled. (That's what you get for hanging me out of a fucking window!) I was still pissed so I threw a big book at his head. "Questo è per avermi lasciato." (That's for dropping me)


(An)

To be honest I really didn't know what gif to add so I just added the candle. 

I think it looks nice tho.
