'Empath' - Diego Hargreeves/ The Umbrella Academy

8 - The Day that Was

Parker's P.O.V.

"who the hell is Harold Jenkins" Diego spoke looking to five

"i don't know... yet" he chucked the coffee cup "but i do know that he's responsible for the apocalypse. so we have to find him and we have to do it now"

"How is he connected to what's going to happen" Luther added

"i don't know" five spoke

"wait so you just know his name and that's it" you commented

"There is probably dozens of Harold Jenkinses in this city" Diego looked in disbelief

"well, we just better start looking then" five answered

"im sorry, am i the only one that's sceptical here? i mean how exactly do you know all of this about what's his name?" you nodded in agreement with Allison

"Harold Jenkins. you know those lunatics in masks who attacked the house?/2

"oh yeah i think i remember those guys" Klaus faked thinking

"Yeah, the ones that attacked us while you were getting drunk causing parker to get shot" Diego play along looking to you when he mentioned you getting shot

"yeah them, they were sent by the temp's commission to stop me from coming back and preventing the end of life on earth

"the temps what?" you questioned

"my former employer, they monitor all of time and space, to make sure that whatever is supposed to happen.. happens"

"okay but that does sound pretty cool" you smirked to five

"they believe the apocalypse is coming in three days, so i went to commission headquarters and intercepted a message, that was meant for said lunatics 'protect Harold Jenkins' so he must be responsible for the apocalypse"

"what do you mean protect time and space" "where is this hazel, five?" "My skin is on fire" "do you have any idea how insane this sounds" everyone commented at once

"you know what else is insane?

i look like a 13-year-old boy

Klaus talks to the dead

Luther thinks he's fallen everyone in that overcoat

and Diego and parker refuse to admit their feelings to each other" he spat "everything about us is insane, it always has been"

"he's got a point there" Klaus commented laying down on the sofa

"We didn't choose this life we are just living it, for the next three days anyway"

"but the last time we tried to stop it we all died," Allison remarked "why is this time any different? why shouldn't i go home to my daughter?"

"because this time im here and we know the man responsible, guys we actually have the chance of saving the lives of billions of people.. including claire" five added making you all look to Allison

"you know her name"

"i do and i would like to live long enough to meet her"

"Alright, let's get this bastard" Allison piped up making you smile at her standing up next to her

"im with Allison" you spoke

"you had me at Gerald Jenkins" Diego spoke walking over to the two of you

"Harold Jenkins" five corrected

"you guys go om gonna look through dads files, i still think this has something to do with why i was sent to the mood" you all scoffed at Luther as you shook your head at him mumbling things about the moon
