Ten Days

November 25th, 1963:

Five held on to Allison and (Y/N)'s as the vortex he created opened to take them from the theatre back through time. If they went back just a little bit they could do over what they messed up on and set things right. They had to set things right. It was only a mere few seconds after he had entered before the blue light of the vortex opened and spit him out onto the ground. He looked around for the rest of his family and (Y/N) but they were nowhere to be seen. Concerned, he looked back up towards the blue light frantically calling out,

"(Y/N)! Diego!"

It was no use. Five watched as the vortex closed and left him alone with no one else. As he stood looking at the empty sky he heard a commotion coming from the other direction. Turning around he walked out of the alleyway he was dropped in towards the road. As he approached he was met with a horrific sight. Tanks and soldiers running down the street yelling in...Russian? Five watches as fighter jets fly overhead releasing missiles onto the city. Bright orange explosions litter the sky as he spots a newspaper. Rushing over to it he crouches down on the ground and reads it.

"Soviets attack the US? No, this can't be right." Five says confused

Standing up Five moves more into the street looking up at the chaotic scene before him. He watches as soldiers fire upon each other, blood splattering out of them as they fall to the ground. This was not right.

"What the hell did we do now?" He asks himself

As Five continued to think about what was going on a missile shot from the tank he stood next to knocking him back to the ground. He fell on his back and pressed his eyes closed as his ears rang from the loudness of the explosion. It was as if someone had set off a flash bomb in front of him. When the ringing in his ears started to fade Five stood himself back up. As he did so he heard a voice call out,

"Five! You sick son of a bitch, where the hell have you been?"

Five looked over through the chaos and saw the figure of his brother Diego standing in front of an overturned police car. He didn't see much else but he knew he needed to go help. As he was about to run over a hand caught his shoulder and a voice said,

"If you wanna live, come with me."

Five turned his attention to the person who held him and saw an older version of Hazel standing there.

"Hazel. What the hell's going on here?"

"There's no time to explain. Those are nukes, old-timer." He replies pointing at the projectiles in the sky

"What about my family? And my girlfriend? I still haven't seen her." Five asks concerned

"You can't save 'em if you're dead," Hazel replies

Five looks over at the members of his family he can see before looking back to Hazel. If he was going to keep them safe then he had to leave them, it was his only choice. Quickly, Five grabs Hazel's hand, and the two of them warp away.

November 15th, 1963:

As you sat at Stadtler's restaurant with Charlie you looked over the Stadtler's Restaurant menu thinking of what you should eat.

"Charlie, what do you think I should have? A burger or grilled cheese?" You ask

"Grilled cheese is a burger without the meat. It's not a choice if they're practically the same thing." Charlie replies

"Choosing meals is important Charles." You joked

"Ew. Don't call me that." Charlie states "Also there are many more important things than the choice of a grilled cheese or burger."
