~ When your soulmate stays awake the same hours you sleep and vice versa ~

Five sighed out as he poured another cup of coffee for himself as he sat at the kitchen dining table. He yawned out tiredly, closing his eyes for a brief moment but groans out when he couldn't fall asleep.

"Can't sleep either?" Diego sighs out by the open doorway, clad in his leather suit while playing with a knife.

"Yeah..." Five raises a brow at his brother. "What's with the getup? Thought you were done with that life."

"Yeah well, my soulmate apparently loves sleeping so might as well do something productive."

"Yeah, it's like mine is popping sleeping pills or something." Five rolls his eyes in annoyance, glaring at his coffee.

"Hey, why don't I just knock you out?" Five glares at Diego. "It was just an idea. You can get somewhat sleep after how long you've been up for." Five mulls over the idea and his sleep-deprived brain agrees.

"Sure whatever-" Five instantly crumbles to the floor when Diego easily slaps the daylights out of him.

"Oh, he's going to kill me when he wakes up but so worth it!"

"You seem to be in a good mood?" Allison observes as Five waltzes through the living room with his cup of coffee.

"Yeah... Why are you smiling?" Luther asks and Five simply ignores him.

"He must have done something last night." Klaus whispers into Ben's ear but fails as everyone around him heard.

"Don't wait up, I'm busy." Five down the rest of his cup coffee and spatial jumps away to the public library. He skims through the different aisles, trying to find a book that would entertain him when someone bumps into his back.

"Shit, I'm so sorry!" Five narrows his brows at the girl before him who looked awfully dishevelled. Her hair and clothes were crumpled and messed up like she just put on the first thing she saw. Her arms were filled with papers and books that all looked like were going to drop to the floor. Five watched this exhausted girl walk past him and stumble into an empty chair, sighing out before opening a book to study.

"Sucks to be her."

A few hours go by and Five gets up from his seat in the floor with towers of books surrounding him. He doesn't bother putting them back, walking out of the aisles and stops short. The girl that bumped into him this morning was fast asleep, sitting upright with her head hung over her book and a pen still in her hands.

"Jeez, what asshole has been keeping her awake?" Five sighs out before going over to the girl and shaking her awake. Her head jolts up and she blinks, looking around.

"Shit. I actually fell asleep?" She groans out, running her hands down her face as she notices that it was dark outside. "Thanks for waking me up."

Five nodded, suddenly feeling tired all of a sudden and yawning out. "No worries." Five struggled to keep his eyes open, wobbling over his feet like he was drunk.

"Whoa there buddy." the girl quickly catches him and stand him up straight. "I think I should help you home-" there was a sudden flash of blue and the girl squeals out in surprise as she falls back on a bed?

Five had sleep-teleported home but managed to bring an extra person with him.

"Where the hell am I!?" you frantically look around the almost plain and simple room. She struggles to get up from the bed but gives up since Five had a death grip around her waist, snuggling his head in the girl's lap. She sighs out, leaning her head back on the headboard as her fingers mindlessly runs through Five's hair. "I'll just stay and explain things once he wakes up."

~ When the soulmates can feel each other's physical pain ~

→ The Umbrella Academy all crouched on the rooftop of an abandoned building, overlooking a warehouse. It was in the dead of night, the moon disappeared behind the clouds to cover the docks in an eternal darkness.

→ "You guys now the plan." Luther mutters out and everyone nods.

→ "Five, check out the place and see if there's anyone inside. Don't engage. Just zip in and out." Allison hisses out, knowing that her physically younger brother loves to go rogue on missions.

→ Five rolls his eyes and spatial jumps away, landing behind some boxes in the dark warehouse. He could hear faint murmurs and light ahead of him. "You don't think those annoying academy assholes know we are here do they?" There was a large group of men around a couple of tables that had money and drugs littered all over the place.

→ Five struggled to hear the rest of the conversation, counting how many thugs in the room before reporting back to his siblings. "There's a whole bunch of them. Let's take them out now." Five hissed into his earpiece.

→ "Wait, Five no-"

→ "-who the fuck are you!?" Five jolts and turns around to see more thugs with weapons growling behind him.

→ "Ah shit..." Five mumbles and quickly spatial jumps away as one of the guys shoot his hiding spot.

→ "One of those fucking superhero kids are here!" the whole gang all stock up on weapons, either swinging or shooting at Five as he yelled at his family to come to the warehouse.

→ "Fuck!" Five grunts in pain as one of the men manages to punch him across the face, roundhouse kicking him in the gut. Five slams against a wall, spitting out the blood before getting up. "Now you've done it." it was just a blur of blue as Five knocked down the thugs one by one, incapacitating them with the help of his family. He earns a few gunshot wounds and a few broken bones at the end but that doesn't stop Five from taking down the leader easily, a gunshot wound right between the eyes.

→ "Five!" Vanya gasps out as Ben quickly catches him as his feet buckle beneath him.

→ "We need to get him to a hospital now!"

→ "No..." Five struggles to keep his eyes open but is defeated against the darkness as he passes out.

→ Five slowly woke up from the incessant beeping, growling at the irritating noise when he realised his surroundings. "Shit, I told them not to bring me here." Five looks around and sees that he was surrounded by other empty beds.

→ "Five! You're finally awake!" Klaus instantly glomps Five, earning a painful groan as Five shoves him off.

→ "Instead of trying to undo my stitches, go tell a fucking nurse that I'm awake."

→ "Ok!" Klaus happily skips away and Five tenderly touches his chest and stomach. He winces out in pain and a couple of nurses walk in.

→ "The poor girl. Wgoever her soulmate is, really is a douchebag to be putting himself and her in danger."

→ "I know right! The poor girl has healed over bullet wounds and small fissures on her ribs-oh! you're awake!" The nurses do their job and Five mulls over the info he overheard.

→ "There's someone here with bullet wounds?"

→ "Oh yes. She's in the room just across the hall. The poor thing is in so much pain, coughing up blood and all-" before the nurse could finish, Five spatial jumps outside the hall and slowly opens the door to see a pale girl sitting upright with an oxygen mask on. Absolute guilt washes over Five seeing the girl struggle to breathe since she wasn't used to these injuries like he was.

→ "Who are you?" Five jumps as he heard the girl speak, a rasp in her voice. FIve looked over to see her gown fallen down just a bit, a familiar healed over bullet wound right on her collarbone.

→ "I'm so sorry." Five mumbles out, walking closer to the girl as she raised a brow at him in confusion. Five pulls down his shirt to reveal the exact same wound and the girl narrows her eyes at him before ripping her mask off.

→ "So you're that fucking asshole!" Five shrieks in surprise as the girl grabs his shirt and throttles him back and forth. "You're that shithead that's doing this to me!? What are you doing!? What soulmate goes out and gets fucking bullet wounds!?"

→ "I said I'm sorry!" Five yells out but quickly holds the girl as she bends over and starts coughing painfully. Five frowned, almost tearing up at how much pain he's put his soulmate through till now. "I'm so sorry. I really am." The girl wheezes out, trying to gasp for air and reaches for the mask.

→ "Yeah, sorry ain't gonna cut." the girl breathes in and Five sighs out. "The names (y/n) by the way you asshole."

→ "I'm Five." you raise a brow at the name.

→ "What are you, some secret agent or something?"

→ Five shrugs, unsure of how to answer. "Something like that."

→ "Wait, you're joking right!?" You blink at Five in surprise.

→ "I don't joke."

→ "Well shit. So you got all this from fighting bad guys right?" Five nods slowly, worried where the conversation was going. "You won right?" Five was silent for a bit but bursts out laughing.

→ "Of course I won. I make sure I do every time."

→ "Now that's my soulmate!"

~ When the soulmates see colour when they see each other ~

→ 2020, the shitty year that forced everyone into lockdown as the earth and mother nature took their revenge on mankind. People were not happy about a whole year wasted since people couldn't go out to find their soulmates. As Five walked around the grocery store, he wondered if the reason the Handler tried to let the world end in 2019 was cause she knew about the global pandemic.

→ That has to be bullshit. Right?

→ Five sighed out, standing in front of the coffee aisle with his mask on and trying to choose a brand. He couldn't tell the difference between the different sized bottles since they all looked the same to him.

→ Everything around him was kinda the same to him, all just the same tones of whites, greys and blacks. "Why the fuck is there so many different types?" Five grumbles in annoyance but perks up when he hears someone giggle next to him.

→ Five looks over and sees a smaller girl also standing in front of the coffee aisle. He could see her eyes turned up at the corners behind her glasses like she was smiling underneath her mask.

→ Five grunts out, rolling his eyes at the nosy girl. "Sorry, sorry. Didn't mean to overhear." the girl continues giggling and she looks up at Five properly with those big eyes of hers. Five watches as the girl's eyes widen in shock, looking around violently before staring at him. "I can see colour! Holy shit I can see colour!"

→ "Wait what-" Five blinks in surprise when faint colour suddenly starts to trickle over his vision like rain on a window. He looks around frantically, seeing the bright hues of the rainbow and Five stares at the girl who had a pink blush on her cheeks that were peeking out from her mask.

→ She's so cute.

→ Five couldn't help his heart melt at how warm and beautiful her eyes were as they squinted upwards when she smiled at him again. "Your eyes are such a beautiful green, like emerald gems." Five instantly felt his cheeks heat up at the compliment, shyly rubbing the back of his neck.

→ "Thank you..."

→ "So emerald eyes, what's your favourite kind of coffee?" The blush on Five's cheeks easily travels up to the tip of his ears, the girl standing in front of him giggling even more at the sight.

→ "Uh, I like this one." Five points to a brand and he notices the excited glee in the girl's eyes.

→ "That's my favourite too!" she grabs two bottles and places them in her trolley.

→ "Wait, I can pay-"

→ "-shush emerald eyes. It's my treat." Five watches dumbfounded as the girl skips off to buy his coffee. "And the names (y/n) by the way." you turn and around and lower your mask a bit, causing Five's heart to skip a beat as you wink at him.

→ Five quickly runs up to you, keeping the requested space between you both to keep you safe. "My names Five, not emerald eyes!"
