"AH ATHENA EVANGELINE EVANS we've been looking for you for quite some time now" she said in a sickly sweet tone of voice "we admire your sense of independence and strength" she began "and we know that we can bring you to your full potential here at the commission, we can make you stronger, powerful" her sickly sweet smile made Athena feel sick "that is why we are offering you a job here, in the correction facility"

"whats that?" Athena asked in a monotone voice

"well, thats when we go out into different time lines and eliminate anyone who threatens to damage the timeline"

"so like an assassin?"

"we prefer to call them the correctional facility" she tilted her head "come on Athena you could be the world's greatest assassin, or the sad lonely girl who couldn't save her family, Which one will it be Athena?" her posture stiffened immediately

She stared into the woman's eyes who still had that wide eyed smile all over her face "ill-ill take it" she said

this was the worst mistake she had ever made.

Seeing Agent Evans walking down the hallway covered in blood was not a rare occurrence whether it was her own or someone else's.

"A hard day?" Theo asked noticing how tense her jaw was

"you have no idea, god why can't people just let me kill them and die in peace, I'm telling you it would make my life a lot easier" she remarked

"well" Theo began putting down his newspaper
"would you go peacefully if someone was trying to kill you?

"a lot of people have tried to kill me"

"and your answer is?"

"no" she sighed defeated  "i wouldn't"

"that's what i thought Cariño"

Even after being given many opportunities to live somewhere else in the commision she always stayed with Theo, he made her feel safe, like she was a good,innocent person again, he had always treated her like a human being , not a child or a ticking time bomb

Today was her last day at the commission, they didn't know that though of course, Theo and her had made a plan to leave, it was all mapped out perfectly, what time they needed to break into the briefcase room, where they would go what they would do after (Theo promised her that he would take her to a big fancy restaurant and let her order whatever she wanted)

she had an easy target that day, some poor Italian guy that had damaged the timeline in some way, she didn't care, it was her last kill anyway

He was an easy kill, as anticipated , her briefcase sent her back to the commission but as she walked back to the gym something felt off. very of.she felt nauseous and the air smelt like death the closer towards the gym she got the worse the smell got.

"Theo?" she called out her tone uneasy
She opened the door. nothing.
"THEO?" she yelled
he wasn't in his bed, he wasn't blasting his annoying music he always played while cooking.nothing
she was about to leave the room when she heard a loud painful groan coming from the bathroom
her stomach dropped, she sprinted to the bathroom and was met with Theo sat up in the shower bleeding out, the bathroom was covered in blood and he looked like he was on the brink of death
"Dad? No no no" she murmured running up to him

"no, n-Cariño don't look at me turn away" he begged

"No,no- no please i can't do this again" she sobbed trying to compress his wound with a bit of her shirt she had ripped off "you can't die, please just breathe yea i'll get some help, you dealt with me for so long you can get through this right? yeah yeah you can do this just breathe"

he chuckled softly "i'm sorry babydoll, i think my time is over"

"No don't you dare say that let me just get some banda-"

"Cariño i am very old, i have had a very eventful life, i wouldn't say this is how i wanted to go but im glad that ur by my side, si? Sit down with me would you?"

She reluctantly nodded her head and sat beside the man she struggled to stop herself from attending to his wound

"who did this to you" she said with teary eyes

"Do you? do you remember those guys,  who laughed at you when you first arrived?" he asked in a dazed tone, his eyes fixed on the bathroom floor "said you were weak"

"you said you would let me beat them up if they ever did anything like it again" she chuckled softly at the memory tears falling down her face

"They said they needed to talk to me so i let them in we had a few drinks and than they just..attacked me of course i put up a fight broke a few bones but i just couldn't take them all..how pathetic i put my whole life into self defence and i couldn't take on a couple of idiots it was the leader that finished it though samuel king hes called big big man with a scar running down his face, a little like yours" he chuckled pointing at the faint scar that ran from above her eyebrow to her cheek before spluttering "anyway, enough about that lets just have a normal conversation, how was your day sweetie? Did you kickass?" he chuckled

She had a confused look on her face " yea..it was fine some italian man, pretty basic case i was trying to make it through quick because, it was supposed to be our last day remember?"

"Of course i remember, only this would happen to me today right" he chuckled with no humour "listen to me closely Athena, there's been a little change of plan with what we were supposed to do, i won't be there with you but i need you to do something for me, something big" his face went serious "save the world from the 2019 apocalypse, there's a man called five hargreeves the commission has been training.I need you to make sure he leaves the commission to save the world and go with him, i have all the equations and answers you need in my safe okay? I've been planning this for years, there's information on Five Hargreeves in there as well okay? Everything you need" he grabbed both her hands and looked at her with pleading eyes  "do whatever you need to do, to go with him. save the world for me Cariño, burn the commission to the ground"

"choke them on the ashes of the dreams they burned"

His eyes widened and he took a deep breath "it's close to the end for me, hold my hand Cariño please"

"no" she shook her head " no please" her voice barely audible  as she held his hand tightly

"i am so proud of you kiddo, okay, so proud" he whispered a tear making its way down his face before going stone cold

his breath slowed and his eyes once full of energy and life turned dull "Theo, Dad please no please come back, i can't do it without you, dad please" she begged her breath getting caught in her throat.His chest slowed and his eyes went blank "no dad" she begged rocking his pale lifeless body back and forth

She took a deep breath and let out a painful blood curdling scream "dad..no"

not only had she lost another friend she had also lost her father She took in a few painful breaths, wiped her eyes knowing that this is not what Theo would want her to do, he always told her she was strong, stronger than anyone he had met and now she needed to act like it stopped crying and her face changed into angry, bloodthirsty "i will kill every last one of them"

She entered in the code and grabbed the papers out, stuffing them in her pockets, she took one final look at her home knowing she would never see it ever again
