"The thing is that I never asked to be born. I never asked to be a superhero. But here we are, trying to stop the end of the world. Just a normal Monday, right?" ~~~ Chase Barnes, previous known as Colette Hargreeves, doesn't refer to himself as normal. First of all, he's trans. Has been ever since he was about fourteen. He also spent his childhood as part of a child superhero team called the Umbrella Academy. But he hated being part of his father's experiment, so he left as soon as he turned eighteen and moved to San Francisco. He left his childhood behind, changed his name, and got married. He had never planned on going back to his childhood home. That is until he got word that his father had passed away. So he traveled back home, leaving his husband and cat behind to go to the funeral and see the rest of his family after several years. But when Number Five comes back and warns them of the apocalypse, he begins to think that he should have just stayed home.
