11. THE THEATER
CHAPTER ELEVEN: THE THEATER
---
Five was walking down the street towards the Academy when suddenly the sound of explosion in the distant was heard which 'cause him to stop before he spotted a newspaper that blow towards his feet before stopping.
He picked it up before his eyes widened when he saw the date "Shit" he said as he realized that it was not over and he blinked away.
---
Luther, Klaus, Diego and Allison all watched in horror as the Academy had collapsed to the ground.
There was nothing left, everything was in ruins.
"Mom! Mom!" Diego shouted as he dropped to the ground and tried moving the rubbles around. "Klaus, come here. Help me search" he said "Diego" Klaus said softly before he grabbed Diego's shoulder trying to pull him back "Just stop it. Stop" he said and Diego turned to him "No, what--what are you--" he said turning back, trying to move the rubbles of the Academy "Let me go. What are you doing? Let me to" he said, turning back to Klaus.
"Stop, stop" Klaus said, pulling Diego up on his feet "She's gone. She's...She's gone, okay? She's..." Klaus said softly "What do you wanna do? You wanna--wanna...walk away from this?" Diego said, stuttering the last bit and Klaus shook his head slightly "No" he said "What about Pogo?" Diego asked "Just--" "He didn't make it" Luther said, cutting Klaus off as him and Allison walked up to them.
"What?" Diego asked and Luther let out a sigh "Vanya killed him" Luther said "But Vanya wouldn't--" "No, I saw it" Luther said, cutting Diego off "Just before we got out" Luther said "Mom. Now Pogo" Diego said before sitting down on something.
"Guys" Five said as he came running through the rubbles towards them, holding a newspaper in his hand.
"This is it. The apocalypse is still on. The world ends today" Five said "I thought you said it was over" Luther said "I was wrong, okay?" Five said before he held up the newspaper "This newspaper, I found it in the future, the day I got stuck. The headline hasn't changed" he said "No, that doesn't mean anything. The time could've been altered since that newspaper came out this morning" Diego said.
"You're not listening to me" Five said annoying "When I found it, I assumed this place came down along with everything else" he said before he looked up at the night sky, pointing at the moon "But here we are. The Moon's still shining, the Earth is in one piece, but not the Academy" he said and Klaus grabbed the newspaper from him "I'm confused" he said "Then listen to me, you idiot! Vanya destroys the Academy before the apocalypse. I thought Harold Jenkins was the cause, but he was the fuse. Vanya is the bomb. Vanya causes the apocalypse" Five said "We have to find her" Luther said.
Then a helicopter blades whirring was heard "We gotta go now" Diego said as the helicopter was shining down at them "Regroup at the Super Star. Go!" Luther said as he ran after Allison while Five blinked away.
---
"So you kids have being lying to me?" Lara asked as Mitch have told her the whole story "We are really sorry mom, but we just wanted to save the world, be heroes" Mitch said "You two could have gotten killed" she said "We know, but we came out without a scratch" Andy said "You kids still lied to me, went behind my back to help some guy you don't know" she said "His name was Five Hargreeves and he is a member of the Umbrella Academy. We get to meet the others and they are actually not that bad" Andy said "Therefore we want to spend more time with them" Mitch said which cause Lara to widened at her eyes.
"I'm sorry what?" she asked "We want to hang out with them some more" Mitch said "Nope, not gonna happen" Lara said as she shook her head "Why not mom. They are like us" Mitch said "And they are not that bad as I thought they were" Andy said "I don't like Reginald. You two know I told him how he tried to take you two away from me" she said "Yeah, but he is dead" Andy said "Please mom. Maybe this can be good for us, they can teach us things that no one else can and they might be able to help us with our powers" Mitch said "Isn't that what you want?" Andy asked and Lara let out a sigh "We are so sorry we lied to you mom, and you can ground us, but please let us hang out with them" Mitch said.
There was a minute silence before Lara nodded "Okay" she said as she looked up at her sons who smiled "But you two will be grounded for a month. No more sneaking out at night, no more using your powers in public" she said "No more" the twins said "And this month where you two are grounded, no video games. Only used your computer for school. And only homework and school for that period of time, got it?" she asked and they nodded "We promise" they said "If you two follow that for a whole month, you can vist the Academy" she said and the twins smiled before they jumped out of the chair and hugged their mother.
"Thank you. Thank you mom" they said "You're welcome Sweethearts" Lara said before they pulled away.
"But you two gotta promise me that this will not affect your school or learning. I still want you to do as an amazing job in school, okay" she said "We promise it will not affect school" Andy said "Good. After school when you have finished your homework, you can go over there and that also includes weekends and holidays" she said and the twins nodded before the two went back to their seat.
"By the way mom. We want to invited Five Hargreeves for dinner next week" Mitch said and Lara looked at him "Why?" she asked "'Cause we like him and we want to introduce you to him" Mitch said "I think you two will get along" Andy said "You two are not trying to set me up, are you?" she asked and the twins glance at each other "You two can't set me up with someone you have only know for seven days" she said "So is that a no?" Andy asked and she smiled "He can come for dinner 'cause I would like to meet the guy that got my boys so happy and got them to skip school" she said and the two smiled.
"Can we go call him?" Mitch asked "No, not right now. You two can either call him or tell him after a month. You two are still grounded" she said and the kids made a sad face.
"Don't give me that sad face, I'm still really mad at you two but since you two told me and I didn't find out another way. You are not getting punish that hard" she said as she looked at them.
"Come, right now we need to clean up and then go to the theater otherwise we will be late" she said and the two nodded before they help their mom clean the table.
---
Five and his siblings all arrived at the Super Star Lanes Bowling before they started to talk about a plan in how to save the world.
Luther was sitting on one of the two connected chairs and Allison sat on the chair next to the two that Luther was sitting on while Five was sitting on a chair between the chairs the others was sitting on.
"Look, I hate to be the one to say this, but everyone needs to prepare" Luther started "For what?" Diego asked "To do whatever it takes to stop Vanya" Luther said and Allison hit him with her notepad. "I--" Luther said before letting out a sigh "We may not have a choice, Allison" he said to her "Bullshit" Diego said as Klaus pulled out the newspaper "There's always options" Diego said "Yeah, like what?" Five asked as he looked at Diego "I don't know" he answered.
"Look, whatever we decide, we need to find Vanya. And fast, okay? She could be anywhere" Luther said, getting up. "Or..." Klaus said, looking up from the newspaper slowly "Here" he said and they all looked at him.
Diego stood up and you all walked over to see the newspaper. It showed a foto of Vanya with her violin and the concert name above her.
ST. Pluvium
Chamber of Orchestra
Vanya Hargreeves.
"That's right. Her concert is tonight" Diego said.
"Hello" a woman said and they all turned around to look at her "I hate to intrude, but my manager says if you're not gonna bowl, you gotta leave" she said and they noticed the manager standing behind the counter with a pair of bowling shoes before he slammed them down on the counter.
"Whose turn is it?" Diego asked "Oh, for..." Luther said before picking up a bowling ball and he turned to the manager, before he without taking his eyes of the manager, threw the ball behind him carelessly, causing it to bounce across multiple lanes before going in, hitting all ten pins.
Five's eyes widened when he saw the titled in the newspaper "Shit" he said "What?" Luther asked "Mitch and Andy is at that theater tonight they are gonna watch that concert" Five answered with the sound of worried in his voice.
"Vanya is gonna perform there and if she is gonna start there then Mitch and Andy will...." Five said before he stopped himself, not wanted to finished the sentence "We have to stop her before she hurts them" Five said with a the sound of desperate in his voice "Since when did you care about others than yourself" Luther snapped at Five "Since I met them" Five snapped back.
Allison then tapped on her notepat as she showed it to Luther.
'SHE'S OUR SISTER'
"We're the only ones capable of stopping this. We have a responsibility to Dad" Luther said "To Dad? No, I've heard enough about--" "He sacrificed everything to bring us back together" Luther said, cutting Diego off.
"I'm with Luther on this one. We can't give her a chance to fight back. There are billions of lives at stake. We're past trying to save just one" Five said.
Allison wrote something down on her notepad before showing it to Five.
'SO YOU'RE OKAY WITH HURTING VANYA'
"No, but I agree with Luther, there is no choice" Five said and Allison wrote something down again before showing it to Five.
'SHE'S YOUR SISTER'
"I know that Allison. But Mitch and Andy will be there and they are good kids and I care about them. They don't deserve to die like that. They have saved my life two times already. I can't let them get hurt" Five said as he looked at Allison "Sometimes to protect the people we love, we have to make some different decisions" he said.
"Hey, you know, guys, uh...maybe I could help" Klaus said "Now is not the time" Luther said "No, let him finish" Diego said and Luther looked at Diego, furrowing his brows "He saved my life today" Diego said as Klaus got up from the chair.
"Is that true?" Luther asked Klaus "Yeah, yeah, I did....take credit for it. In fact, the real hero...was Ben" Klaus said making Diego turn to him, furrowing his brows as Five leaned back in his chair, taking in a breath as he furrowed his brows while Allison shook her head.
Klaus let out a sigh "Today...Listen. Today, he punched me in the face. And earlier at the house he was the one who saved Diego's life, not me" he said as he stood next to Diego.
"You are unbelievable, Klaus" Luther said "You want proof, is that it?" Klaus asked before he grabbed a bowling ball "All right. I--I'll give you proof" he said before he sniffed while moving the ball around in his hands.
"All right, it's showtime, baby" he said and threw the ball up in the air causing Five to move aside "Catch" Klaus said but the ball fell to the ground with a thud before it started bouncing across the floor.
Klaus looked at the floor before he put his hands behind his head while everyone just look at him, like he was an idiot "Is there any way to silence that voice in your head that scream out to be the center of attention?" Luther asked and Klaus turned to him "You know, I liked you a lot better before you got laid" he said causing Luther's eyes to went wide.
"Which was a complete...It--It wasn't his fault, 'cause he was ridiculously high, right?" Klaus said and Five raised his brows as he looked between Allison and Klaus.
"And--And the girl, she thought he was a furry..." "Stop" Luther said and Klaus scratched the back of his head "Okay" he said.
Luther looked at Allison who grabbed her notebook before walking away "Allison, wait" Luther said, following after her, like a puppy.
"My family is so stupid sometimes. I really wish Mitch and Andy was here. At least they act like adults" Five mumbled.
"Are you worried about the twins?" Klaus asked as he looked at Five "I don't know what is wrong with me. I just met them, but I feel connected to them in some way and my instinct is saying to protect and watch for them" Five said as he ran his fingers through his hair in frustration "It's funny how quickly people can connect. Maybe there is a reason to why" Klaus said and Five looked at them "Don't worry. We will fix this and those two boys are smart and strong and they are also more smarter and more mature than kids that age. They will be fine" Klaus said.
"Excuse me! Excuse me" a woman said causing Five to turn his head to see a woman with red hair and glasses standing with a younger boy who also had glasses on. He was holding a bowling ball in his hand and had a blue present ribbon on his shirt.
The woman walked up to Five, stopping a few feet away before she squeezed her kid's shoulder. "It's my son Kenny's birthday today, and...Uh...wouldn't your son be happier playing with kids his own age?" the woman asked causing both Five to furrowed his brows.
"Assuming it's okay with your two dads" the woman said as she looked at Klaus and Diego.
Klaus looked at the woman before he looked at Diego, raising his eyebrows while Diego was looking at the woman, raising his eyebrows too.
"I would rather chew off my own foot" Five said and the woman's face fell "Let's go Kenny" she said and the two left.
Then there was a whooshing and a clunk sound causing Five to look at a lane nearby before he got up and walked towards the lane.
"If I was going to date a man, you'd be the last man I would date" Diego said "You'd be lucky to get me" Klaus said.
Five grabbed a capsule and saw his name was on it "How the hell did she find me?" he asked and think when he took a candy from the bowl.
He let out a sigh before he digged through his pockets, taking out the candy wrappers and opened it to reveal a tracker.
"She's good" he said with a smile before he dropped the tracker on the floor and smashed it with his foot.
He opened the capsule and grabbed the fortune cookie inside before he opened the cookie and read the message.
Time marches on...or does it?
Rain Quail, RM 12
Five then turned around before blinking away.
---
Mitch, Andy and Lara arrived at the theater and they could see that the whole theater was almost full.
"I have some special places. Up at front" Lara said before the twins follow their mother and they sat at the second first line before sitting down.
The curtains opened to reveal the orchestra and the twins' eyes widened when they saw Vanya with her violin bow. But she looked different, her eyes were white and her skin was pale.
Mitch and Andy glanced at each other "Do you feel that?" Andy asked and Mitch nodded "She have powers. I didn't knew Vanya had powers" he said "Either did I, but they are powerful, I can feel them" Andy said "And they are active" Mitch said before he looked at his mom who was sitting next to him "Mom, can we please leave?" he asked "Nope, it's just getting started" she said "But--" "Hey, you two wanted me to take you with me and I would have said that you are allow to leave, but take this as a punishment" she said before she looked out on the stage.
"Do you think that Vanya---" Mitch whispered to his brother "I think so" Andy said "We have to warn Five and his family" Mitch said.
The twins wanted to warn Five and his family, but since they didn't knew the number to either of the Hargreeves and they refused to leave their mom, they have to stay, but was ready to protect their mom if Vanya did something.
---
Five walked into the motel, before they walked over to the room and towards a door that was on ajar.
The sound of water bubbling was heard as he opened the door and stepped in, closing the door behind him before walking farther in.
He let out a sigh before he stopped in the middle of the room as he saw Agens strapped to a chair with tape over her mouth.
He remember who Agens was. She was the one that owned the diner 'Griddy's Doughnuts.
"You must really like doughnuts" he said as he spotted a table filled with doughnuts "Help me" Agens mumbled from the tape.
"It's been a while" The Handler said as she laying on the bed "Three days" he said "For you, maybe. But for me, it's been a lot longer since I've seen those adorable little shorts" she said "Well, you've had time to heal" he said as he stared angry at The Handler.
He was really furious at her, for what she did, what she took from him.
She let out a sigh before she got up and walked towards a table that was few feet in front of Five "Luckily, for the both of us, time...is the one thing my organization has abundance of" she said as she looked at him.
"Got your message, by the way" Five said as he hold up the message "Nice packaging, but so much for Commission protocol" he said as she grabbed a shrimp tail from the small table filled with food before she let out a chuckled.
"There have been...a lot of changes since you left the Commission" she said and stepped closer to him.
"You really did some damages" she said before eating the shrimp tail and she crossed her arms in front of her chest "The briefcases were all but destroyed, to say nothing of the...highly trained personnel you killed. After all, what is an institution if not---" "What do you want?" Five asked, cutting her off.
"To be happy. To have a simple...unfettered life, to...do the work my superiors require" she answered before she turned around and walked over to the couch "But...you being here, well, it complicates all that" she said and sat down on the couch.
"Billions of people are about to die tonight" Five said and Agnes let out a whimpered sound "You can change that" he said "Tonight, tomorrow. So little difference in the scheme of things" she said and Five rolled his eyes.
"You used to be tough and heartless, Five. What happen to you?" The Handler asked "Nothing" Five said "Did something change you or did someone?" The Handler asked and Five looked at her "People are going to die, you can still change it" he said "This apocalypse need to happen, therefore I can't have anyone trying to stop it" The Handler said.
"Is that why you want Mitch and Andy to die?" Five asked "So you have meet the twins. They are lovely, aren't they?" she asked "You know they are the only one with the power strong enough to stop the apocalypse. You know that they are a big threat to you and The Commission. The stronger they gets, a bigger threat they becomes, so you want to get rid of them" Five said before he took a deep breath "Why?" he asked "They are too powerful" she said "That is not a good explanation on why you want them dead" he said.
"Don't you remember the Commission's raison d'être? What's meant to be is meant to be, or, as I like to say que será, será" she said, changing the subject "It's bullshit in any language" Five said as he took a step towards her "Why did you call me here?" he asked "I wanna offer you a choice. Everyone's going to die tonight, but...unlike the rest of the world, you have a way out. You can abandon your family and skip ahead to the apocalypse, take a walkabout for a few decades, wondering if I'll come back and offer you a job again, or you can stay here with your family, and...die a horrible death" she said before she grabbed a champagne from an ice bucket and started undoing the wire around the cork causing the cork to made a pop noise.
"While you weigh your options, just know your siblings are fighting for their lives without you while the twins are probably also fighting for their lives" she said "You brought me here to pull me away" Five said "You used to be the only agent with no weakness and now you have two" she said and smiled evil causing Five's eyes to widen "Mitch, Andy" he mumbled "It's been nice knowing you, Five" she said before he blink away.
He would rather brace the end of the world with his family than escape alone.
He is not going to lose more people he care about.

"Isn't it beautiful?" Lara asked her boys as they were listen to Vanya playing "Yeah" the twins said but with a more worried look.
They notice Vanya's eyes landed on someone behind them and they looked over their shoulder to see Allison who were smiling at Vanya.
"They know" Mitch whispered to his brother "Yeah, but where are the others" Andy whispered to his brother.
Then suddenly, Diego and Luther ran out from the side and towards Vanya but she unleashed her powers from her violin, sending a wave of white energy force through the crowd.
"MOM, WATCH OUT" Andy and Mitch called out before they grabbed their mom and tackled her down to the floor, taking cover behind the chairs as she let out a gasp while the wave knocked Luther and Diego into the crowd.
The audience screamed and gasped at the sight and they started leaving.
The orchestra was about to leave but Vanya sent another wave off and they all sat down before they began playing again.
"Move! Go, go, go, go, move!" Diego said as people started running out of the theater and Vanya sent another blasts out.
"What the hell is going on" Lara said as she was holding herself and the boys down.
"Vanya is the one that is gonna cause the apocalypse" Mitch said "What?" Lara asked.
"She's stronger than expected" Diego said as they have taking covered behind the seats "Yeah" Luther said before he looked at Allison ho sent him an angry look "Yeah. We're fine, thanks for asking. Look, I almost lost you once, all right? I wasn't about to lose you again" Luther said.
"Okay, boys we need to leave" Lara said "No, we are gonna stay" Andy said "We can't stay, if we do, we will die" Lara said before she grabbed the boy's hands and was about to drag them with her.
"No" they said as they got their arm out of her hands and she looked at them "Boys, I'm not kidding, we need to leave now" Lara said "No" they said "Mitchel and Andrew. I'm your mother and you are doing what I say" she said "Not this time" Mitch said "Mom, we love you. But we are tired being treated like little kids. We have superpowers, and you told us to only used them for good and this is something good. We are gonna use them to save the world" Andy said "Like Ben Parker said 'With great powers, comes great responsibility" Mitch said and Lara looked at her boys.
She knew that she couldn't stop them, so she nodded and the twins smiled.
"Well, so much for element of surprise. What else you got?" Diego asked and Allison signal a violin to them. "No shit, Allison. Tell us something we don't already know" Diego said.
"She's talking about the violin, Knife-Boy. It's her lighting rod" a voice said and the Hargreeves looked towards the voice to see the twins with Lara behind them.
"You guys are here" Diego said "Of course" Andy said "Mom, this is Diego, Luther and Allison. They are members of The Umbrella Academy. Guys, this is our mom, Lara" Mitch said as he introduces them to Lara.
"Aren't you too young to be a mother?" Diego asked "I'm 43. Asshole" Lara said "Yeah, she ended up in her younger body because of us" Mitch said.
"Nice to meet you miss" Luther said "You guys just be lucky I have not punch you for bringing my kids in danger. They want to help but if they got hurt, I'm gonna kill all of you. Don't think I can't" she threated.
"Listen about Vanya if we can take it from her and stop her from playing, we might have a shot" Andy said as he peek over the seat he was hiding behind to see that Vanya's skin was pale as she was playing on her violin which was making the whole place shaking.
But then a group of guys in masks entered the room and they started shooting around the theater causing the orchestra to scream before they ran out of the theater.
"What the hell happened to Klaus? He's supposed to be on lookout" Diego said "Yeah, you surprised?" Luther asked.
Then Five appeared in the middle of the theater "What's with all the lollygagging?" he asked.
"FIVE, GET DOWN!" Mitch shouted as more men started shooting at them and Five gasped as he dodged behind some seats to take cover together with the twins.
"You two okay?" Five asked as he looked at the twins "We are fine" Andy said "Mom this is Five Hargreeves. Five this is our mom Lara" Mitch said as he gestured to Five and Lara.
"Hey, I gotta say you have amazing kids" Five said to Lara as he looked at her.
But then Lara slap Five across the face "Mom" the twins said "That was for bringing my kids in danger" she said "Okay, I deserve that" Five said as he rub his cheek "Nice slap by the way" he said as he sent her a flirting smirk "Stop that smile asshole, or I might punch you so hard that you wouldn't be able to breath for a week" she threated.
'Spicy. I like her' Five said inside his head.
"Five, what the...I thought you bailed on us?" Luther asked "I had an errand to run" Five said as more bullets was flying around them.
"This is not good" Five said "You know these guys?" Diego asked "Yeah, I do" Five said "And?" Diego asked "Well, we're screwed" Five said before Diego threw some knives at two of the men.
"Guys, it's Cha-Cha!" Klaus shouted as he ran into the theater "It's Cha-Cha, she--" "Klaus! Get down!" Luther shouted as some of the men fired at Klaus who just reach to dodged in time.
Five ran forward before he blinked onto one of the men's back. The man moved around trying to shoot at anything. Two other agents shot at the man at the same time as he shot the both of them causing all three to fell to the floor.
"Mom, stay here" Mitch said "Boys---" "Mom, trust us, we got this" Andy said before they both blink away.
While Five was fighting against one of the agents another agent come up from behind him, but as he was about to point his gun at Five, Andy appeared next to the guy before he swung a kick at the guy's face knocking him out.
Five turned around to see the guy falling to the floor "I had him" Five said as he looked at Andy "If you had him, I wouldn't have gotten him" Andy said and Five rolled his eyes.
Mitch appeared behind a guy before using Luther's super strength, pushing the guy making him flew backwards before his back hit the wall and he fell to the floor with the grunt.
Lara let out a sigh, "No point in hiding it anymore" she said before she crouched down as she walked passed the seats.
She jumped up on the back one of the agents and she grabbed the man's jaw and the back of his head before she snapped his neck causing him to fall dead on the floor.
Five and the twins heard a grunt and the three turned around to see Lara swinging a kick at one of the agent, knocking him to the floor.
"You two didn't tell me that your mom could fight like that" Five said "We didn't knew" Andy said.
"Mom" Mitch said and Lara turned around to see her sons and Five looked at her with widened eyes "How---" the twins asked "Did you two really think I don't know how to defend myself. I have learn a thing or two before you boys was born" Lara said as she looked at them with a smile.
Then Klaus hands started glowing dark blue and a chiming sound was heard.
Klaus started standing up and he stretched his hands out to the side before a blue figure started appearing in front of him.
"Who is he?" Mitch asked as he pointed on the blue figure "That's Ben" Five said "Your brother?" Andy asked and Five nodded with widened eyes while Ben let out a yell as multiple tentacles came out from his stomach
The sound of a monster squealing was heard as the tentacles grabbed the agents, squeezing them, killing the men one by one.
Then Diego spotted Cha-Cha by the stage and he ran towards her, pushing her behind the stage and they both grunted as they started fighting.
The others looked at Ben with widened eyes who was squeezing the men and ripping them apart "Oh, my God. It's him. Ben" Luther said "Okay, Ben is cool" Mitch said with a smile.
When the agents were all dead, the tentacles drawn back into Ben's stomach as Klaus let out a groan and a gasp while Ben disappeared "Now who's the lookout?" Klaus said before he let out a small laugh.
They all looked over at Vanya who was standing on the stage, as she continued playing, her black suit started turning white along with her violin as the whole place was rumbling and shaking.
"Oh, welcome back. Where were you?" Luther asked as Diego walked up to the rest of them "Honoring a memory" Diego said as he stopped by them "So, how do you wanna end this thing?" he asked as Allison put a hand on his shoulder.
"We surround her. All right? We come at her from all angles" Luther said "So it's a suicide mission" Klaus said "Yeah, but one of us could get through. It's the only chance we've got" Five said "Are we all in?" Luther asked "Yeah" they said "All right" Luther said before he looked at Allison who shook her head.
Luther turned to Diego "Stage left" he said and Diego nodded before Luther pointed on himself "Stage right" he said before he looked at Klaus and Five "You guys take the front" he said and the two nodded.
"Boys you stay here" Lara said "No" Mitch and Andy said and they all looked at them "We are the only one that stop this" Mitch said "How?" Luther asked "We have our ways, we can copy Vanya powers and used them against her" Andy said "We can stop her" Mitch said "No, it's too dangers. I'm not letting you boys do this" Lara said "Your mom is right. This is too dangerous. Let's us handle this" Five said "We can do it" Mitch said "You two are not strong enough for this" Lara said "We can try" Andy said before they looked at their mom "We love you mom" they said before they looked at Five "Thank you for letting us know how it felt like having a father. It was fun" Andy said before the twins turned around and start walking towards Vanya.
"BOYS" Lara shouted and was about to run towards her sons, but with their powers they threw her backwards.
"Shit" Five said and reach to catch Lara causing them both to fell backwards.
"Mitch, Andy" Lara said "I will get them" Five said before he got up and he blinked forward, grabbing them both "What are you---"
Five blinked them back to where Lara was "You boys stay here" Five said as the sound of glass smashing was heard as everyone got ready and Luther was about to run to the front but Allison stopped him
"I'm sorry. There's no time, Allison. If she finishes this concert, the world goes up in flames" he said before taking off as the place started shaking more and more while masonry cracking and groaning was heard.
"NOW!" Luther shouted and they all started running towards Vanya.
But as they got close enough to Vanya, she moved her violin bow through the air again with a blast and as she did that, the energy swung Five and the others backwards before holding everyone suspended in the air with a white lines that was connected to the four of them.
Just like the others, Five could feel the energy and life being sucked out of their bodies.
The sound of violin chords resonating was heard as Vanya was standing still, sucking the life and energy out of the others.
"NO" Mitch and Andy said before they looked at their mom "Mom, please, we can't let them die like that. Please" Mitch said as the twins looked at their mom.
"Please be careful" she said and the twins nodded before they ran towards Vanya.
Vanya sent out a blast towards the twins, but they copy Vanya's powers before they stuck their arms up, holding back the blast with their powers.
As you were holding Vanya's powers back, the building started shaking causing things to collapsed more.
The twins gritting their teeth in pain as blood started running down from their nose and they knew that it was a side effekt when they were using too much of their powers.
Mitch and Andy pushed themself to used more powers.
As both the twins and Vanya kept shooting out energy making the whole place around them started shaking more and things started collapsing.
The twins looked at each other before using their free hand to grabbed each other, combined their powers as they cry out in agony while the blast that they hold back exploded out of them and tore away the ice blue light inside of Vanya, dissolving it.
It was almost over, she were running out of energy, but so were the twins and it wouldn't be long until she power down making her drop the others.
The twins went to put more energy into it when they were suddenly knocked back but they stood their ground.
More ice blue were shot from Vanya one more this time. The twins' body ached as their powers subsided from their distraction of focus.
Then Lara came up from behind Vanya with a gun pointed at her while Allison was standing next to her.
Allison looked at her four siblings up in the air as Vanya was sucking out their life and energy from their body which cause their faces to look pale and fatigued.
Lara then looked at her sons that look like they were in pain and about lose consciousness, their whole body was shaking and they were bleeding out of their nose which was not a good sign.
Allison had tears in her eyes as Lara aimed the gun at Vanya's head.
Lara was about to pull the trigger put then Allison put her hand on the gun before she lowered it which cause Lara to look at her "Let me" she said before she grabbed the gun and put it right next to Vanya's right ear before she pulled the trigger and as the gun went off, the sound of a blasts and a whooshes was heard as Vanya dropped the others.
Vanya's powers shot up "No" the twins said as they stuck their hands up to stop it but they couldn't since it was too strong and they were knocked back but they were still able to hold the blast back.
"Don't" Five and Lara said before Five got up and blink over to Andy, grabbing his hands and held them tightly in his while Lara did the same to Mitch causing them to let go of the blast as the four fell to the floor while the others rushed up on the stage and over to Vanya who was laying unconscious in Allison's arm.
The blast shot up into the glass ceiling causing the glass to shatter and the bright blue light from Vanya was shot towards the night sky.
Vanya felled backwards but Allison caught her.
"Why did you two stop us, we could have had it" Andy said "No, you both could have being killed" Five said "Are you kids fucking insane, you could have being killed" Lara said "I'm sorry mom, we were just trying to be the heroes" Mitch said "Boys you will always be heroes in my eyes. You two did good. I'm so proud of you" Lara said as she hugged her sons before she looked at Five "Thank you" she mumbled to him and he sent her a smile.
"I'm prod of you kids too. You did good. I would say you can call yourself heroes" Five said and the twins smiled.
"Is she alive?" Luther asked as he put his hand on Allison's back. She put her hand on Vanya's throat and after feeling a pulse, she let out a sigh before she nodded "She is? Yeah?" Luther said "Oh, thank God" Klaus said "We did it. We saved the world" Luther said.
"We did it. We saved the world" Mitch said before the twins looked at their mom "Does that mean we are still grounded?" Mitch asked "Nice try" Lara said and the twins chuckled.
Klaus let out a sigh as he looked up at the night sky behind him "Oh, man" he said before he got up to look better at the night sky, because the glass had shattered you could see the sky clearer.
"Uh...Guys?" Klaus asked as pointed up at the huge chunk of the moon that was coming right towards them.
"You see that big Moon rock coming towards us?" he asked and the others all looked up "Yeah. We see it" Andy said "That's not good" Luther said "So this is, huh? So much for...saving the world" Klaus said before he let out a sigh as he looked down at the dog tags around his neck.
"If only Sir Reginald could see us right now, huh? The Umbrella Academy. A total failure" Diego said "At least we're together at the end. As a family" Luther said and Lara grabbed the twins' hands "I'm sorry mom, we really tried" Mitch said "It's okay, I'm proud of you two" Lara said as Five looked at the twins.
No, he refused to give up, they have to fix this. He have to fix this. It can't be the end. He refused to let it be the end. He will make sure that the twins can still live their life.
"This doesn't have to be the end" Five said as he turned to face them causing them to turn around to look at him "What? What are you saying, Five?" Diego asked "I think I have a way outta here. But you gotta trust me on this" Five said "No" Diego and Klaus said as they looked back at the sky "Yeah, I don't think so" Luther said also turning to look back at the sky.
"Well, then, we might as well accept our fate, because in less than a minute, we're gonna be vaporized" Five said "What's your idea, then?" Diego asked Five "We used my ability to time travel. But this time, I'll take you with me" Five said "You can do that?" Diego asked "I don't know. I've never tried it before. I have never travel with someone before and I don't really know if I will have enough power to transport all of us" Five said "We will help" Mitch said and Five looked at him "We also have your powers. There is now three with the same powers meaning double power" Andy said "I will combined my powers with Andy who will combined our powers with you" Mitch said "Even so we can't do that yet, we will do our best in helping you, but you will lead" Andy said and Five nodded.
"What's the worst that can happen?" Diego asked and looked at Luther.
"You're looking at it, a 37-year-old man inside a child's body so there's that" Five said.
"Oh, what the hell? I'm in" Diego said "Yeah, whatever. I'm in" Klaus said "So are we" Lara said which cause Five to look at her "If there is even a small chance, we have to take it" she said "We are in too" the twins said "Me too" Luther said before he looked at Allison "Allison?" he asked and she nodded.
"What about Ben?" Luther asked, looking at Klaus "Great, yeah, he's in" Klaus said "Okay, great. Luther, grab Vanya" Five said and Luther lifted Vanya up in his arms "Wait, should we be taking her? I mean, if she's the cause of the apocalypse. Isn't that like taking the bomb with us?" he asked "The apocalypse will always happen. And Vanya will always be the cause. Unless we take her with us and fix her" Five said and they all nodded.
They all grabbed each other's hands as they all stood in a circle.
Allison grabbed Five's right hand while she grabbed onto Luther's left shoulder. Klaus put his hand on Vanya while grabbing onto Diego's left hand. Lara grabbed Mitch's left hand before she grabbed onto Diego's right hand with her other hand while Andy was holding Mitch's other hand as Five was holding Andy's other hand.
The twins and Five looked up before closing their eyes for a second as they powered up, both of them combining their powers with each other.
The sound of electricity crackling was heard and the twins and Five opened their eyes.
There was a zapping sound above them causing them all to look up and they saw blue light of energy forming a ball above them as the electricity started crackling while it got stronger around them as the wind blow.
"Now" Mitch and Andy said before Andy combining the two's powers with Five who squeezed his eyes close as he could feel more powers going through him which cause the blue ball to take the shape as a ring above them as energy waves started coming down forcefully around them and a whooshing sound appeared as the wind blew.
"Ah!" Five and the twins said, gritting their teeth as the the electricity crackling got louder.
"It's working" Luther said and Five looked around "Hold on!" the twins said "It's gonna get messy!" Five said.
The portal began opening and completing its shape and Lara and the twins looked around to see that the siblings were back in their kids forms.
Lara looked at her twins who was looking at her as the energy finally surrounded them all completely.
"See you soon. Stay safe" she said "See you soon. Stay safe" the twins said "No matter what happen. I'm proud of you kids" she said and the ball reformed in the middle before shutting with a whooshed and a zap, taking them all with it causing they to all disappear in the blue light with a whoosh and a zaps.
End of act one.
