"The odds don't matter. Don't hold yourself back, if you think there is even the slightest chance of succeeding, you might get surprised, you might succeed, and if you hold yourself back, you will never know how it would've turned out and you might regret it for the rest of your life"

Diego have followed after Stan "Stan" he said before he whistled as he followed after him down the hallway.

"Stanley" he said again and Stan stopped before Diego walked up to him to see what he was holding.

"What is all this?" he asked as he grabbed something out of his hands "Acid?" he asked confused "Well, um, you told me to clean up my own mess. I just have to thank you for teaching me such a valuable lesson in personal responsibility" Stan said "Yeah, I'm not buying that. What's going on?" Diego asked but then he spotted blood on Stan's arm "You got blood on you. Come on, talk to me" he said before he bent down so he was in eye level with him "Hey, I'm your dad" he said "Um...Okay. But you gotta promise you won't be pissed" Stan said.

---

Stan and Diego entered the White Buffalo Suit to see Klaus laying dead with his eyes opened on the white blanket.

Diego bent down and closed Klaus's eyes "What did you do?" he asked Stan "Nothing" Stan answered and Diego looked at him before he got up and he grabbed his collar, pulling him closer "Do not lie to me. This is my brother" he said aggressive and Stan started breathing rapidly "Tell me what you did" Diego said "We were just messing around, and it was fine. Until the gun went off" Stan said and Diego looked at the cleaning supplies and acid.

"And you were gonna dissolve the body?!" Diego asked almost yelling as he looked at Stan "I didn't know what else to do, okay? You were gonna hate me, and I'd have to go to prison, join a gang for protection, and end up in the hole!" Stan said as he started sobbing.

"Hey, hey, hey, hey" Diego said as she put his hands on Stan's cheeks "I don't hate you. I just...can't believe it, okay?" he said before he looked at the body "All the stupid shit Klaus used to do. I used to think he could survive anything and now he's dead" he said "I'm really, really sorry" Stan said as he wrapped his arms around Diego before he started crying "Me too, kid" Diego said and wrapped his arms Stan.

"Come on and help me wrap up your uncle in the carpet" Diego said.

Light jazz music was playing in the background as Jane, Five, Viktor, Luther, Allison and Lila was by the bar.

Five was standing in the bar while he was giving them a glass short each.

He didn't like the glance Allison something sent Jane, so he made sure that Jane was kept a distance from Allison. So Jane was standing on Five's right side and Allison was on Five's left while he was standing on the other side of the counter between them.

Viktor, Lila and Luther was sitting by the front of the bar.

"So this Kugelblitz, it's...?" Viktor asked "The end of everything. Every rock, every star, every atom sucked into a radiant black hole" Five said "Randomly collapsing matter every moment in time across all existence till nothing's left" Lila said "Hate to say I told you so, but..." Five said as he picked up a bottle of whiskey.

"You love to say I told you so" Viktor said and took a sip of his glass while Five took a sip from the bottle.

Lila picked up her glass before she looked around to see if she could spot Diego but she couldn't see him and she put down her glass on the counter.

"You know, it's impressive. Whoever knocked off your mums, hated you all enough to end the entire univers" she said "We don't know that" Viktor said as he shook his head.

"It doesn't matter who created the thing. We just have to kick its ass" Allison said "Oh really? How?" Luther asked and Allison glanced at him "Are you and Diego gonna punch it in the Kugel?" he asked before he took a sip of his glass.

"The best plan is to go back in time and eliminate the paradox and destroy whatever it was that took out our mothers and stop the Kugelblitz before it starts, but we can't do that. Briefcase is kaput" Five said and Allison turned her head to Five "And why the hell can't you just jump us out of here?" she asked and he looked at her "Last time I tried that, we all got trapped in time. Do you really wanna risk that again?" he asked but Allison didn't answer.

"What's plan B?" Viktor asked.

Diego let out a grunt as he pressed Klaus' body who was wrapped in the a white carpet against the wall.

"Are you sure we can't just torch the evidence?" Stan asked as Diego puss the button on the elevator door "A couple flames from Mr. Burns over here" Stan said "Give me that, you little pyro" Diego said as he took the lighter from Stan "We're not burning anything. We're gonna do talk to the family together. They'll, uh, understand that this was an accident" Diego said and Stan looked down "Hey. No matter what happens, I got your back, okay?" Diego said and Stan looked at him "Tú ya eres mi sangre" Diego said in Spanish "I still don't speak Spanish" Stan said and Diego threw the lighter back to him "And I accept your flaws, all right? Now..." Diego said before he let out a grunt as he was trying to keep the body up against the wall.

The elevator then opened and Chet walked out "I got it, I got it. Just go get the door" Diego told Stan "No, let me--" Stan said as he was trying to help move the body.

"No. Go wait over there. Wait by the..." Diego said "Okay" Stan said but then they stopped before they looked at Chet who was looking at them.

"Uh...yeah, we're, uh, playing a game" Diego said "What's it called?" Chet asked "Guy in a Carpet" Diego answered and Stan nodded "I hope you win" Chet said before walking away.

"Go get the door" Diego said "Okay" Stan said an d enter the elevator as Diego lifted the body up on his shoulder with a grunt before he sighed "Klaus was right. I love this place" he said before he walked into the elevator.

"Okay" Diego said as he got ready to put the body down "Get his head, get his head" Stan said "Yeah, I got it. I got it" Diego said as the two press the body up against the wall "Oh, that's heavy" Stan said "Press the button" Diego said "Okay" Stan said and walked over to the buttons "Ground, ground. G. There you go" Diego said, pointed at the right button "Yeah. Okay" Stan said before he press the button and the elevator door closed.

Then suddenly Klaus woke up with a gasp causing Diego and Stan to let out a scream before they jumped towards the other end of the elevator and Klaus let out a scream "Oh my God!" Diego said "You told me he was dead, puta!" Stan said using a Spanish word "He was, and now you speak Spanish?" Diego said as they were both freaking out.

Klaus grunted before he felled back down into Diego's arms "Ley me just turn the volume a smidge, shall we. Celestial comedown is a bitch" Klaus said before Diego push him back towards the wall with a grunt "Whoa" he said as Klaus felled to the floor.

Diego kneeled down in front of Klaus "Oh, you scared the shit out of me, Klaus! I thought you were dead" he said "Yeah" Klaus said and started breathing rapidly as he looked at his wound on his chest "Me too" he said before he started laughing maniacally and Diego let out a laugh, happy that his brother was not dead.

"Me too. Me too" Klaus said with a weep and Diego sighed.

The elevator door opened and the three walked out of the elevator "Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa. Dude. Dude slow down" Diego said to Klaus as he was walking kind of funny "You were dead, like, three minutes ago. Like dead dead, all right, so--" "Well, I'm back now" Klaus said, cutting Diego off.

"Apparently, it's, like, a thing I do. Who knew, right?" Klaus said before the three stopped "And look, look, look" Klaus said as he open up his shirt a little bit so you could see the wound "It's...it's already healing" Klaus said as the wound started getting smaller and smaller.

"What would happen if we cut off your head? Would it grow two of you?" Stan asked "Stan" Diego said as he looked Stan "Would it?" Diego asked as he looked back at Klaus who sighed before walking away.

"Gimme that" Klaus said as he walked over to the bar and took the bottle from Five.

"What happened to you?" Five asked "Oh, just a speargun to the chest. No big deal" Klaus said while he waved with his hands before he looked at Jane "Jane, nice you are here. Welcome back to the family" he said before he took a sip from a bottle.

"What did we miss?" Diego asked them "The universe is ending, and we're all going to die" Lila said with a smile.

Fei, Chris and Ben was in the basement with Grace as they were looking at Kugelblitz.

"Why have you brought me before my God?" Grace asked "Your right eye. Give it to me" Ben ordered "What are you doing?" Fei asked "If we wanna beat this thing, first we need to understand it" Ben answered.

Grace pulled out her right eye and stretched it towards the Kugelblitz "It's time to see what's on the other side" Ben said before he grabbed Grace's eyes and moved it closer to the Kugelblitz.

The sound of energy pulses was heard as the Kugelblitz suck the eye inside before the basement started shaking a bit.

"Woah!" Fei said "Fei, watch it! Grab her!" Ben said as Grace was about to be pull into the Kugelblitz as her eye that have being suck into the Kugelblitz was still connected to her head with a blue glowing wire.

The Kugelblitz then sent out another wave.

---

A wave of energy ran through the hotel, shaking the light that was hanging from the ceiling and there was a muffled scream as the wave disintegrated the guest in the lobby.

"What the hell was that?" Diego asked "That was a Kugel wave. Oh, it's getting worse" Five said as the light started flickering on and off more.

"How long do we have?" Luther asked Five "At this rate of escalation, if you factor in--" "How long, Five?" Luther asked "Four, maybe five days before the rest of existence is blitzed" Five replied before he sighed and Allison walked away.

---

"Come on, Ben!" Fei shouted as the two was holding Grace from being suck into the Kugelblitz "I'm telling you, it won't work!" Fei shouted "Hold on, Fei!" Ben shouted.

The sound of circuits was warbling as Grace's eye was blinking and both Fei and Ben was panting as the wire was cut of to the eye causing the wire to fell out of the Kugelblitz and Ben and Fei let go of Grace.

"God has a million eyes, each falling into themselves" Grace said "What the hell is that supposed to mean?" Ben asked and Chris said something causing them to look at him "Oh, black holes? Really? Am I just surrounded by morons?" Ben asked "Maybe he's right. What if what Grace is describing is a black hole collapsing in on itself?" Fei said and Ben rolled his eyes "Oh, whatever" he said and the sound of energy pulsing was heard "God is angry with us" Grace said "We are wasting precious time. This is bigger than just us. We need help" Fei said "Harlan first, then we can kill whatever the hell this is" Ben said.

---

"We should give them Harlan" Luther said "Luther" Viktor said.

"What about Harlan?" Diego asked "The Sparrows said if we turned him over, we could end the fighting, and then work together to save the world. But if we didn't--" Luther said.

"That's what they are telling you?" Jane raise a brown.

"It doesn't matter. We tried to make peace with them, but Jane keeps defending them and playing both sides. I mean what are you hoping for" Viktor looked at Jane "I'm hoping that we can figure out some agreement your little time bomb friend had been making it incredibly difficult to play this side" she said "It's like we don't trust you anymore, but you can be plotting all of our death right now" Viktor said and Jane and Five looked at him.

"My point is---" "Yeah, what is your point" Jane snappe at him.

"But we tried to make peace. Okay, and then the step-siblings from hell-- " "Watch it" Jane snapped at Viktor causing him to look at her.

"They may not be the best family you can have and they can be assholes, but they are still the people I spent 16 years with, actually saw as my family" Jane said before she looked down at her glass "Once" she said before she lifted up her glass "But it turns out that they all fear me and treat me like a weapon with no face and Reginald only took me in to experiment on me cause he knew that my body could handle it. So my whole life have being a lie. Cheers to that" she said as she took a sip of her glass.

"I'm going to kill him" Five mumbled under his breath in anger over what his dad have done to his Jane. He have almost made her into a walking ticking bomb with no face.

"As I was saying, they attacked, kidnapped you, and they tried to kill us. I mean, come on. We can't trust them. Working together would be like trying to defuse a bomb by pouring gas on it. It's only gonna make things burn down faster. Therefore we can't work together with them" Viktor said.

"Well, people can be stronger together. I think it could work, I mean I can talk with them. But I don't think they will agree unless you give that man who killed Jayme and Alphonso which I think is fair. You guys should be lucky that they don't want you dead" Jane said "Do you want to kill us?" Luther asked "Maybe, maybe not" Jane smiled fakely at Luther who gulp in fear.  

"But don't we need the big bad glow-y thing in their basement?" Klaus asked and everyone looked at him and while holding a shot glass in his hand, Five slowly turned his body sideways to face his brother "Klaus, do you know where the Kugelblitz is?" he asked.

"Oh, yeah. I saw it. When I went to visit Dad. It's in the old storage room where Mom used to keep all her luggage" Klaus said "Why didn't you tell anyone?" Five asked "I did. I told you" Klaus said as he pointed at Diego "You say stupid shit all the time!" Diego said.

"Of course. It appeared in the same place we did" Five said. "...Important stupid shit" Diego said "That's not your fault. I'm inside your brain, pulling levers and stuff? Serious..." Klaus said.

Viktor got up from the bar before he walked away and Luther followed after him.

"Hey" he said and Viktor stopped before he turned around to look at Luther "Why are you protecting this guy, huh? It's like Peabody all over again" Luther said "Harlan is nothing like Leonard" Viktor said "Well, he's clearly got some kinda hold over you. Stop covering for him" Luther said.

"Covering what?" Five asked as him, Jane and the rest came walking over to them.

"What's going on?" Five asked as he put his hands in his pockets.

"He didn't mean to hurt anyone" Viktor said to Luther "Really? You mean, when he did this?" Luther said as he pointed at the cut on Viktor's cheek.

"Ow" Stan said "Wait, Harlan did that?" Five asked "That's it, I'm gonna end him" Diego said.

"Do you want to tell that to Jane's face? She is grieving, you know? Her and the rest of the Sparrows" Luther said.

"Look, I know how it looks, but Harlan didn't ask for this. If we hadn't gone back to 1963, if I hadn't have saved him--" "He killed Jayme and Alphonso, not you. He's the reason we're in this mess, and he's our only way out of it" Luther said, cutting Viktor off.

"Woah, hold on, hold on" Jane said as she lifted her finger and they looked at her "So you guys are saying that the old guy that killed my sister and brother is right here in this hotel and you guys didn't bother telling me" Jane said "If we told you, you would kill him" Viktor said "Yeah, I will kill him, but is only fair that the others and I take care of this together" Jane said and Viktor looked at her "Listen, I can't convince Ben if he is in the mood he is now. You have to give them Harlan" Jane said "He didn't mean to hurt anyone" Viktor said "Have you seeing what he have done. I should do worse to him" Jane hissed.

"Luther and Jane is right. If we're gonna have an iota of a chance of getting out of this alive, we need to acces to the Kugelblitz" Five said "There's only four of them left. We can just overpower them. Beside we have Jane on our side now" Viktor said "And who say I want to help you kill more of them?" Jane asked "You just said you have left them and that you are not a Sparrow anymore" Viktor said "Left yeah and not a Sparrow anymore also yeah, but they are still people I spend 16 years with, which mean I still have a soft spot for them" Jane said.

"We'll risk losing some of us in the process, have you forgotten that they have Jane's loyalty, she is on their side" Five said  "So?" Viktor asked "So, she is a highly skilled assassin, more deadly than me, plus she have powers" Five said and Jane looked at him as he shook his head "Harlan is insignificant" he said "You told me once that no one is insignificant" Viktor said to him and Five looked away.

"It's billions of lives at state. That old guy is just one. It's only fair" Jane said "They'll kill him" Viktor said "Of course they will kill him. They want revenge, I want that too. Even so Jayme and Alphonso were not my favorite people, they were still members of the family" Jane said.

"Uh, so? We are talking about one person versus saving billions of lives here. I mean, is this really a debate for you people?" Lila asked.

"Yeah. I mean killing billions to save one or kill one to save billions?" Jane asked and the others look at her "It shouldn't even be a discussion. Maybe giving the Sparrows what they want can save us from complete oblivion" she said.

"Hey, Little Britain? You don't get a vote" Viktor said to her before he looked at Jane "And neither do you, Jane" he said "You just be lucky that I have not killed that old guy already and I'm very closed going up there and either kill him or hand him over to Ben and the others so we can kill him together and I don't think any of you would be able to stop me" Jane said.

"Lila and Jane lives in this universe too. Beside, Jane is family and Lila is family now. Kinda, sort of" Klaus said "Thanks, kitten" Lila said.

"I don't give a shit about the Sparrows, but I'm not gonna let scary-ass Grandpa finish you off" Diego said "Five days ago, he was just a little kid. And what? Now I'm supposed to just decide whether he lives or dies" Viktor said.

"For you it has being five days, but it's been years for him, Viktor. He isn't a kid anymore" Five said and Viktor looked at him.

"Viktor, we're down to ethical triage here, all right? We can't save everyone. The kindest cut wins" Five said.

Luther then took a step closer to Viktor "You always wanted to be on the team" he said and Viktor looked at him "This is what it is. Saving the world means making the hard calls" Luther said.

"Shut up Luther, the only hard call you made was when you went to my family to do my sister" Jane said causing Five and Diego to let out a small chuckled while Luther glanced at Jane "I'm just saying" she said.

"I hate this" Viktor said "Yeah, I know" Luther said and Viktor looked at him "I'll go get him" Luther said before he was about to walk upstairs but then Viktor stopped him "Wait, no. Let me do this. He trusts me. I can convince him to come quietly" Viktor said before he walked upstairs.

"So what now?" Jane asked "Now we wait" Five said.

"Don't search or wait for the perfect paradise. Paradise isn't a place. It's the memories you create. The people you love and spend time with the things you accomplish. The happiness you feel. The smiles and laugher in your life, create your own paradise, create the paradise you want"
