(y/n) - your name

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"They didn't do anything." Allison says, a nonchalant look on her face like she didn't give a shit and I glare at her. "I did."

"(y/n) don't." Five whispers as he holds my hands.

"I killed Harlan."

"You what!?" I hissed out, Five struggling to keep a hold on my as my hands shook and Allison simply blinks at me, raising a brow. Viktor tears up and I could feel my blood boil seeing him so upset. His own son was just taken from him, by someone he trusted-he thought he could trust.

"Why-?"

"-because he didn't deserve to live." Allison cuts Viktor off.

"And you suddenly think you're god." I sneer at her.

"We could've figured out something else!"

"So, what, you could lie to us again and take his side!?"

"That's not what happened!"

"Oh, no, that's exactly what happened!" Allison sneers at Viktor as the two fight, leaning towards him. "I know Harlan killed all of our mothers."

"What...?" I mumble in surprise, everyone else going through the same shock.

"Who told you that?" Viktor stutters.

"Harlan. After you lied about it to my face." Allison seethes

"Is that true, Viktor? Harlan started all this?" I ask and he looks at me sadly.

"Yeah, but he didn't mean to hurt anyone. He-"

"-how do you know?" Five asks, holding my shaking hands in his.

"Because I knew him! And he was sweet and kind until I made him like us! Okay? So, I screwed him up! And if you need someone to blame, I'm right here-"

"-what makes you think I don't?" Allison cuts Viktor off, her arms crossed.

"This wasn't about saving the world. This was about hurting me. Payback for-" Viktor flinches back when Allison suddenly stood up, walking towards him.

"-go on. Say her name."

"Did killing Harlan bring Claire back?" Viktor snaps.

"Did protecting him bring Sissy back?" Allison hits back. "It was just as personal for you-"

"-I didn't kill anyone!" Viktor yells out.

"But you risked everyone! Do you know what that felt like? Watching you fight harder to protect the man who helped destroy my daughter than you ever did to bring her back!?"

"I don't know how to bring Claire back. Okay? No one does. But I was there for you. I tried. I was-"

"-to what? Help me grieve? God, this whole family is so quick to tell me to suck up my pain and so worried about fixing yours! Somebody had to pay because you never seem to. Destroy the world, kill Pogo, almost kill (y/n), and for what? So we can all run around and clean up your mess? I'm sick of it."

"Take it easy, Allison." Five narrows his eyes at her, keeping a tight grip on me as I watched with growing anger.

"Okay, I-"

"-shut your mouth!" I gasp when Allison's powers suddenly wash over Viktor without her saying her line, Viktor struggling to open his mouth. "Every time I build a new life for myself, you end the world and take it from me!" she screams at him and I could feel the heat running through my body.

"How are you doing this without saying, 'I heard a rumour'?"

"Just a little residual gift from Harlan."

"All right, that's it! Knock off the power shit, Allison. It's not okay!" Luther yells at her but she doesn't let up.

"(y/n) don't." Five whispers but my head twitches against the whispers yelling at me to protect Viktor as he choked and struggled to breathe.

"We should have left you in the basement-" Allison stumbles back when Viktor backhands her hard, blood dripping from her nose and she glares at him. "I heard a rumour you stopped-"

"-(y/n)!" Allison screams out as I jump her, slamming her against the fireplace with my claws digging into her cheeks without piercing the skin. "Shit!"

"How does it feel to have your hands covered in blood? To know you willingly took a life?" I hiss out, my hands free of the gloves that were ripped away as the darkness seeped from my arms. Allison clawed at me to let her go as I slam her head against the fireplace. I hovered above her on the ink, everyone else too afraid to come near me. "Did killing Harlan make you feel better? Did taking his life bring your precious Claire back?" I seethe.

"(y/n), please..." I look back at Five who had a blank look on his face and I realise this was his first time seeing me completely lose it.

Let's Give Him A show.

Stay away from him!

I see the darkness start to take over my vision and I struggle to push it back, looking at Allison who glared at me. "You're pathetic. To go as far as murder someone who made a mistake. Yes, it was drastic and yes it got us stuck in this situation but he didn't do it on purpose. You however..."

"Put her down (y/n)." Luther says and I look at him as the others looked like they were ready to stop me.

"Stop! You're antagonising her like this!" Five yells out to them and I throw Allison to the ground, spark spikes crawling out from my body as she glares at me.

"You're a-"

"-a what? Say it. A demon?" I hiss out, smiling wickedly at her. "You are a fucking selfish bitch, going around and playing fucking god. We get it, you lost your kid! How many more people are you going to murder in cold blood to realise that you can't get her back!?" I scream out, done with Allison's bitchy attitude. "I pitied you, Allison, I truly do but to see you become this bitch who personally goes out to hurt her family!? No, I won't take that!" I advance on her as she crawls back away from me, darkness seeping around the room as it darkened. "Sexually assaulting Luther, killing Viktor's son-"

"-he killed our mothers!"

"-does that mean you kill him to even the score!?" I stop down next to her body and lean down close, gripping her jaw tight. "You have no right! No one does! If you had such a problem, you should've just stayed in Dallas with your husband!" Allison yells out as she kicks me over, quickly getting up from the floor.

"I heard a rumour-" the darkness slams into her, pinning her against a wall and I lose my vision to the darkness.

"(y/n) don't!" the small boy in the suit exclaims to me as I close my fist, the darkness slowly enveloping the girl on the wall as her mouth and nose was blocked. "(y/n) please!" I get suddenly turned around, the same boy holding my shoulders and I blink at him. I ignore the thud of the girl falling to the floor as she choked for air, looking into his green eyes.

"So You're The Boy She Cherishes So Much." I grin, hovering over him as he stumbles back, running a claw down his face as I grip his throat.

"Number 8..." I suddenly hear Number 3 mumble out behind me and I freeze, suddenly realising where I was and panic quickly set it seeing the walls of my nightmare.

"No..." I look around, dropping to the floor and recognising my cage. "I Can't Be Back Here... I Escaped! I Escaped! Why Am I Here!?" I scream out, memories flying through my head and I screeched. "I'm Not Back Here! You Can't Put Me Back In The Basement!" I cry out, gripping my head as Ben tried to walk over to me but his foot was sinking into the ink on the ground. "Stay Away From Me!" I yell at him and a wave of darkness pushed him back. "Not Here! NOT HERE!" I wailed, looking for a way to escape when the boy from before held my face so I was looking at him only.

"No one will hurt you."

"Let Me Go Before I Make You!"

"(y/n), no one will hurt you." he looks at me and I quieten down.

"I Can't Go Back... Don't Make Them Take Me To The Basement... Please..." I cry softly, closing my eyes as the darkness seeps back into me and I go quiet.

"Sweetheart-" I gasp loudly, my heart racing as I struggled to breathe while Five held my face.

"It happened again..." he lets me fall into his arms as I cry, my heart hurting so much as I grip his blazer. I don't know I couldn't stop crying Five holding me tight as I shook in his arms.

"What did your family do to her?" Luther and Diego hiss out behind Five, the both of them standing up to Ben and Fei.

"Honey, maybe we should-" Sloane says but she quickly shuts her mouth as Luther shakes his head.

"We're not asking again. What did you do?" Diego takes out his knives and Ben looks over at me with a guilty expression.

"(y/n) I'm sorry-" I flinch away from his view and Five pulls me to his chest.

"Diego... Luther... drop it please." I mumble out, not wanting to talk about it because I didn't know what needed to be talked about.

"But-" Luther sighs as Five gives him a look before turning back to me.

"Sweetheart-" I push away from Five, quickly walking off. I couldn't bear to face him after he saw who I turned into, couldn't bear to see the disgust in his eyes. "(y/n)." he blinks in front of me, holding my shoulders but I don't look at him. "Sweetheart..." he tilts my head up with my chin and I tear up.

"How can you still look at me? I'm a monster... A demon from hell..."

"Because I love you." my breath hitches as he wipes away my tears. "You are my (y/n), the weird ghost girl from another universe who used to know about the future. A sassy and alcoholic but kind-hearted would of a girl who is beautiful inside and out. A girl I fell in love with. So no, you are not a monster and definitely not a demon from hell. Technically, that would be me." I chuckle lightly, him smiling softly at me.

"For god's sake Five. That was so corny..."

"Well, you're stuck with me, even if you like it or not. Nothing can ever make me love you less, ever." he leans down to take my hands in his, kissing my palms despite my arms being completely covered by the darkness. "And I won't lose you. I'm going to do everything I can..." he mumbles softly, almost to himself as he kisses my forehead.

"I love you Five Hargreeves, god you really have stolen my heart."

"Now who's the one with corny pickup lines?"

"Oh shut up."
