"Your age doesn't define your abilities"

Luther, Allison and Viktor was standing on the the second floor talking about the disappearing of people.

Viktor was standing by a pool ball table while Luther was sitting on another pool ball table.

"So, all the people on the street just disappeared?" Allison asked "Well, no, not all of them, just...half of them" Luther said "Five did say animals were disappearing" Viktor said "Okay, well, now is definitely people" Luther said "Marcus was supposed to meet up with us earlier, but he never showed" Viktor said "What, you think this grandfather thing took Marcus?" Luther asked "It can't just be coincidence, right?" Viktor asked "Great" Allison said with a sigh "Now those Sparrow psychopaths think we took their Number one and they think that Five is obsessed about Jane which he is, and they think we will take her which we wouldn't. She can stay with those fucking Sparrows if she want" she said before she took a sip of her glass.

"We're never getting the briefcase back" she said "Okay, what if..." Viktor said before he took some steps forward "What if we just told the truth? Marcus is gone, and maybe we're partially responsible" he said "That'll go well. They'll throw us a party" Allison said sarcastically "I bet they throw fantastic parties" Luther said.

"Listen. Marcus was ready to give us back the briefcase. If the rest of his family are even half as open-minded, you know, maybe we can come to some kind of an agreement, get it back" Viktor said as he glanced at the two "We know that Jane is open-minded" he said "No she is not, she is a heartless killing bitch that don't care about anyone and is just waiting to kill somebody" Allison said "No, she is not that person anymore, we have all seeing it, she almost sacrifice her own life to save us" Viktor said "Only to come back and be on the enemy's side again" Allison said before taking another sip of her glass "Can't believe that Five have falling for her. This would be better if she was not here anymore, if she was actually dead, then Five would focus some more" she mumbled under her breath "What?" Viktor asked "Nothing" Allison said.

"Look, maybe we can get the briefcase back from the other Sparrows" Viktor said "Yeah, yeah. Okay" Luther said before he jumped down from the table "Well, if you guys are heading over there, I should probably come along. You know, uh, for protection" he said.

Viktor didn't say anything as he turned to look at Allison "Yeah" she said and took the last sip from her glass before she put it on the table "Nice try, Stockholm" she said before she walked towards him "Your ass is staying here" she said and patted him on the shoulder as she walked passed him.

"Wha--?" Luther asked confused "She's right" Viktor said "What? Who put you two in charge?" Luther asked "Look, Allison...She needs something to take her mind off Clarie. So, we'll handle this" Viktor said "Yeah. Copy. Hey, um...Thanks for looking out for her" Luther said and Viktor nodded before walking away.

Jane was laying on her bed with her eyes closed.

"Sometimes I look at you and I can't understand how someone before me didn't see what I see. Sometimes I look at you and I can't understand how someone before me didn't notice a whole beautiful universe hidden within you"

"With you Five, I see hope again"

"I never want to lose you, you mean everything to me"

"You wouldn't lose me. I promise, I will not go anywhere"

"Through all the trauma in my life, I found so much peace and comfort in you, you are the last bit of hope I'm holding onto...You are my peace"

"You are my last hope and I don't know what would I do without you" "You will always have me for I'm not planning on leaving"

She stared at his eyes before moving her gaze to his lips and back to his eyes again "Screw it" she mumbled to herself under her breath before grabbing the collar of his shirt and pressed his lips against hers while pulling him closer with both her hands holding on to his collar.

Unable to absorb anything that was happening at the time, his eyes opened in full surprise. His thoughts were completely blank till they just focused her lips on his and he closed his eyes before kissing her back.

"Goodbye Five. Thank you for everything. I love--"

"JANE. JANE WHERE ARE YOU!"

"STAR!"

"NOOO!"

Jane opened her eyes with a gasp again before she looked around her room.

She let out a sigh as she put her hands on her forehead before she lay back down on the bed.

Then there was a knock on the door "Come in" Jane said and the door opened before Sloane entered the room, holding a tray with food and a glass of juice "Hey" she said "Hey" Jane said as Sloane closed the door with her powers.

"I brought you some food in case you were hungry since you didn't eat anything this morning" Sloane said as she put the tray down on bed before she sat down on the bed.

"How are you feeling this morning?" Sloane asked "A little tired" Jane answered "Did you not sleep last night?" Sloane asked and Jane shook her head "No, I didn't. Those dreams appeared again, but they don't feel like dreams anymore. I don't know" she said with a sigh "Is that jumpy guy that appear in your dreams?" Sloane asked and Jane nodded "Every since I saw him, they have appeared more often and so have the visions" she said before she looked at Sloane "Does it make sense?" she asked "Well, from the first interaction with them. It kinda does" Sloane said and Jane let out a smile as she took a bite of a piece of toast.

"So you said that two members of the Umbrellas invited you on a road trip" Sloane said "Yeah, they did" Jane said "Who was it?" Sloane asked "It was the one that Ben punched who name was Klaus and the little jumpy guy which name was Five" Jane said "What were you guys doing?" Sloane asked "We drove to Pennsylvania to find Klaus' birth mother which Five didn't like cause he just wanted retirement" Jane said "Isn't that Five guy too young to go on retirement?" Sloane asked "I think he is older than he looks" Jane said and Sloane nodded "But Five told me something" Jane said "And what was that?" Sloane asked "Well, he told me about that butterfly that is coming out of its cocoon that I have tattooed on my left shoulder" Jane said "But how does he know about that tattoo?" Sloane asked "That was what I thought. He said that he knows about it since the two of us used to be partners in crime for seven year and he told me that it means that everything and anyone has an effect in the timeline, at some point. It also mean that even the smallest change can have the biggest effect" Jane said and she slid her right hand down her left shoulder.

"He also told me a little bit about him and I. About how closed we were and how we never left each other's side for over seven years, how much we have being through but we made it through because we did it together. We were Partners in crime and were called Bonnie and Clyde" Jane said and Sloane nodded, like she wanted her to continue "He said that I was the best person he have ever met and that he had a soft spot for me. How I mean the world to him" Jane said "Did he tell you how you guys meet?" Sloane asked "He did" Jane said with a nod "And what did he say?" Sloane asked.

"He told me that we hated each other at first, but that hate slowly started turning into love. It was kinda hate to love story we had" Jane said "Like enemies to lovers" Sloane said and Jane nodded "Then he told me that he fell for me because he was the only person that saw the person behind the mask. He saw the person I really were. He told me that he never thought he would fall for me. But he did it, completely" Jane said "Woah, it sound like he is totally into you" Sloane said and Jane nodded "Yeah, and he also told me something else, and that story fit with my story in how I ended up in that coma for 40 years and how Reginald found me" Jane said "And what's that?" Sloane asked "I used my powers trying to save The Umbrellas and I must have used too much of my powers causing my brain to be damaged which cause me to get amnesia which is why I don't remember anything from before I woke up from the coma" Jane said "Then maybe you should talk to Dad about it. He was the one that found you" Sloane said "I will" Jane said before she took a sip of her juice.

"So, Sloane, how is it going between you and Luther?" Jane asked causing Sloane to widened her eyes "How did you know?" she asked "I saw him walking out of The Academy on my way home and then I saw you using your powers on him so he could come up to your room and I heard you and saw you kiss" Jane said and Sloane's eyes widened even more "Don't worry, I left before I saw you guys do it, but I heard you" Jane said "Were you listening to us do it?" Sloane asked "No, but our room are right next to each other and we share a wall and also you know I woke up to the smallest sound. But it sound like he was having fun" Jane said and Sloane's face turned into embarrassment "Oh God" she said as she ran her fingers through her hair.

"Please don't say anything" she said "Don't worry, I will not say anything" Jane said "Thank you" Sloane said "Of course. But can I ask you a favor?" Jane asked "Anytime" Sloane said "Will you cover for me next time I sneak out and I don't reach to get home before they noticed that I'm gone?" Jane asked and Sloane nodded "Of course" she said "Thank you, because I might go out again soon" Jane said before she took another sip of her glass juice.

"Where are you going this time?" Sloane asked "That Five guy, there is something about him" Jane said "What?" Sloane asked "Do you remember about those dreams and visions I once told you about and remember I told you about that voice I heard calling out for me?" Jane asked and Sloane nodded "Every since I saw that Five guy, those dreams and visions appear more often. I need answers, I know that some of the answers is here, but I think that Five is the big and main answer to those dreams and visions, he is definitely the voice that I keep hearing" Jane said "Then you shouldn't give up" Sloane said "Have I ever giving up?" Jane asked "No" Sloane said as she shook her head "Not once, you keep fighting and you keep getting up" she said "Because I'm a survivor and a fighter" Jane said "And I want you to know that no matter what kind of answer you find out, even if is something you least expect, I will be here to support you, 'cause you are my sister and I love you" Sloane said as she hold up her pinky "I love you too, sis" Jane said before she hooked her pinky with hers and the two smiled to each other.

The sound of raven cawing was heard as Fei was in her room while ravens was around her.

Fei was cutting some meat while Ben was sitting on a chair next to her, his hands clapped together and his left leg crossed over his right as he was looking down on the floor while thinking.

"We're getting tons of mission person complaints in a three-block radius. I was thinking hysteria" Fei said "What are they up to?" Ben asked "Who?" Fei asked and Ben looked at her "The Umbrella Academy. Use your head, Number Two" he said before getting up from his chair "First Marcus, now they're grabbing civilians off the streets?" he said "'Number Two'? I supposed that mean you're Number One now?" Fei asked "Marcus is missing. Jane said no to being Number One once. I'm taking the reins" he said as he turned to her and she let out a chuckled "What? You want Jane to be the leader cause I think she wouldn't mind now when Marcus is missing" he said "No, I will never accept her as Number One" she said "You think it should be you?" he asked and she turned to him "You had your chance once. Didn't turn out too well, now did it?" she asked and he turned his head away from her as he let out a sharply exhale.

"Do you really think that being the leader will get Jane to fall in love with you again. She is not interest in you anymore, she is more to guys who looks like little school-boys that can knock you to the floor. It must be hard to see the woman you are in love with hanging out with another guy who isn't you. I think you have competitor. Well is your fault, you were the one that push her away and if we don't take care of her, she will swift side and then we'll lose" she said.

He then saw that one of Fei's raven was sitting on a bench close to him "Maybe I can just kill her now" Fei said and Ben grabbed the raven around its' throat tight causing it to make a shrieks noise and Fei felt the pain.

"Say that again" he said aggressive as he squeezed the raven's throat causing Fei to start wincing as she could feel the raven's pain.

Fei then looked up and the sound of a telekinetic whoosh was heard and all the ravens in the room started cawing as they started flying around above Ben.

Fei lifted her hand as her and Ben stared at each other.

"Excuse me" someone said and the two turned their heads to see Grace enter the room "Children, do you mind if I clean up?" she asked "Do it quickly" Ben said before he let go of the raven and the ravens let out a cawing noise before they landed back on their spots.

"You know I respect Marcus" Ben said to Fei "Of course" Fei said "I'd do anything to protect him and Jane" Ben said "Sure" Fei said "But we've been Number Two and Three for far too long, Fei. With Marcus gone, it's moving day. And if that little annoying school-boy get into Jane's head and managed to brainwash her, get her to join his side. We'll lose. We need Jane on our side" Ben said and Fei let out a exhale.

"Changes can be good" she said "Think about it. You, me and Jane with my side, center stage. Taking things to the next level" he said "So how do we handle the Umbrella situation?" Fei asked "If they bring Marcus back and if that little guy leave Jane alone, so be it" Ben said before he stepped closer to Fei "If they don't, then we have some decisions to make" he said.

"Marcus isn't coming back. God took him" Grace said and the two turned their heads to look at her.

"God?" Fei asked "Yes, God is in the basement, and he called Marcus home" Grace said before she walked out of the room.

"Does she need a checkup?" Fei asked Ben "Focus, Fei. We play this right. Sparrow Academy is all ours" he said "What about Jane?" Fei asked "What about her?" Ben asked "I don't think she will stand by your side" Fei said "Well, once I have figure out a way to made her hate The Umbrellas, especially that little guy, she will" Ben said with a smile.

"Jane is a fighter and a survivor, she is smart. So she will know where to stand if this turn into a fight, she will stand will that group that will win which will be us and then she will see what a good match we can be and she will be with me again" Ben said before he left the room and Fei let out a sigh.

A raven was cawing as Jane, Ben and Fei walked out on the Academy's courtyard to meet with Allison and Viktor.

"You're one short" Ben said "Where's the rest of your pathetic family?" Fei asked "Aww. Is that the best you can do?" Allisok asked "Last warning" Fei warned "Yeah, you don't get to warn me about shit, Flock of She-Gulls" Allison said and Ben let out a laugh causing Fei to look at him and he stopped laughing before he cleared his throat.

"Whatever. Where the fuck is Marcus?" Ben asked "Marcus is, uh...Marcus, uh...Marcus is--" "Safe" Allison said, cutting Viktor off and Viktor looked at her as Allison looked at them.

"For now. But that'll change real quick if you don't do exactly as we say" Allison said "See? I told you they have him" Fei said as she looked at Ben.

"I warned Marcus, but no. He said we had to hear what you had to say" Ben said "I thought you guys were different" Jane said causing Viktor to look at her "You guys took my brother after I warned you what would happen if you hurt him" Jane said aggressive "Is that the thanks I get for not breaking your legs when I saw you at that hotel, or for not slashing your throat in your sleep" she said "Like you could try" Allison mumbled under her breath.

"No, Jane, you're misunderstand, we--" "I thought what Five and Klaus told me was true, that I was part of your family once" Jane snapped at Viktor "You are part of the family Jane, you just don't remember and if you could then you would know that we wouldn never do something like that" Viktor said "Well, it seems like it was lie, I wasn't with you. What was I thinking to look for answer at you guys" Jane said before she let out a sigh "Was Five in on taking Marcus?" she asked "No" "Yes" Viktor and Allison said at the same time causing Jane to glanced at both of them.

"Five don't know anything about this, we don't even know where he is at the moment" Viktor said before he looked at Ben "Look, he wasn't wrong, okay? We want to make things right with you--" "By kidnapping our brother?" Jane asked as she cut Viktor off.

"No, that's--" Viktor said but Allison cut him off "Yes" she said and Viktor looked at her and she sent him a signal, like he should play along.

Viktor took a deep breath before he turned to look at the three "Look, there is a lot more going on here. The world is in trouble, and we need to work together. My brother could explain it all a lot better than me, but...it's a time-traveling problem. We cause a paradox, and that paradox is swallowing things. Lots of cows, and a dog, a few lobester, but also people. Look, I know it sounds like--" but Allison cut him off again.

"Just give us the briefcase, and we'll give you Marcus" she said "What briefcase?" Fei asked "The one we left in your house" Allison said and Fei was about to say something but Ben beat her to it "Deal. The briefcase for our brother" he said "Great. Hotel Obsidian, four o'clock sharp" Allison said before she put on her sunglasses "Or we'll send him back in pieces" she said and Jane clenched her fist causing Allison to look at her.

"Are you gonna lose your temper, little girl?" she asked, trying to provoke her "I'm not a little girl, I'm actually older than all of you" Jane said with a smile "And trust me, if I lose my temper, you will lose your life and if you guys have hurt Marcus, I will lose my temper and I will kill you as slowly and painful I can think of and it will end with you guys begging me to end your misery and I will, once I'm bored which will take time" Jane said.

"Jane, listen--" but Jane cut Viktor off when she lifted up her hand "No, I don't want to listen to you guys anymore. If you have hurt Marcus, then this is war and I will come for all of you" Jane said before she turned around and walked away as a smile appeared on Ben's face.

His plan was working, Jane now hated the Umbrellas which means she wouldn't mind helping him kill them.

"Inside every strong independent person, lies a broken person who was forced to learn how to get back up and never depend on anyone"
