CHAPTER SIXTY-TWO: INVITATIONS TO THE BACHELOR

---

The next morning, Five, Natasha and Zach were standing by the railing thinking while Sloane and Luther was sitting on a couch leaned up at each other as Viktor and Lila was sitting on the a chair each.

Viktor was sitting normal on the chair while Lila was sitting upside down while Luna was sitting on a blanket by some small steps, playing with her stuff penguin.

"So, how is it that we're still here, but the whole of the universe is going down the cosmic shitter?" Allison asked "Maybe we're the last to get flushed" Viktor said "Wasn't talking to you" Allison said to him as she crossed her arms over her chest while looking away from him.

"Hey, has anyone seen Klaus?" Luther asked "Or Dad" Sloane said.

"They'll be there" Diego said "Really? Did they...hit traffic?" Ben asked sarcastically and Diego looked at him as Ben turned to face the others "Look, people, we're alive because we're special, right? We're the only ones who can save the universe" he said.

"Uh, question" Allison said as she raised her hand "Yes" Ben said as he turned to her "Didn't we just try that and fail miserably?" she asked "Yeah, it's because his plan was stupid" Diego said as he pointed at Ben "Mm" Allison said.

"I got a better one" Diego said "'Course you do" Ben said annoyed "We go with the large hard-on particle accelerator. You guys do some science, and..." Diego said and clicked his tongue while he mimicked a bat hitting a ball "...we launch the Kugelblitz into outer space. Didn't think I knew that, did ya?" he finished as Lila sat up in the chair before Diego looked at Ben "It's in Switzerland" he said "It's 'hadron' not 'hard-on'ya moron!" Ben shouted "Oi!" Lila shouted and Ben looked at her "At least he's trying you shitty little squid. What have you contributed?" she asked.

"Actually, he did blow up half his family" Diego said as he pointed at Ben "Oh, you wanna talk about family problems?" Ben asked as he walked towards Diego "You know what should have blown up is your face on that neck!" he shouted "I wish I had a cake to hit you with it in your face!" Diego said as they were inches from each other.

"What are you talking about?" Ben said in Korean "You better cut that out..." Diego said in Spanish "Shut up" Ben said in Korean as they both continued to argue in their native language causing the others to roll their eyes.

"Hey!" Five, Natasha and Zach shouted causing Ben and Diego to look at them "You guys done fighting like kids?" Zach asked as the three approached the group.

"The universe is disappearing outside" Natasha said as she pointed towards the large windows above the hotel doors "So you can keep rearranging the desk chairs of the Titanic if it makes you feel better" Zach said before Five put his hands in his pockets "But the fact remains that we are too late" he said and both Diego and Ben scoff before they walked away from each other and back to the place they were standing before.

"Five, come on" Luther said "It's over, Luther. We failed" Five said "Come on. It can't be over over" Viktor said as he took his feet from the coffee table "Yeah, come on, Five. We gotta figure this out, man" Diego said before he looked at Zach and Natasha "Come on, you two. Give Five hope like you always do" Diego said "Not this time" Zach said "This is the latter. We have accepted our fate and for the first time, we are actually giving up" Natasha said.

"Come on, you three can't give up" Diego said.

"Okay. How about we take a step back?" Five said and clapped his hands together "Look at the big picture here. Most of us have spent the last 28 days trying to stop the world from ending. What exactly have we accomplished?" he asked and nobody responded, realizing that they hadn't accomplish anything.

"Well, we made some friends along the way" Luther said and smiled as he looked at Sloane next to him "Incorrect!" Five said as he pointed at Luther who smile faded "You know what we've done?" Five asked "Nothing. We made things worse every single time" Zach said.

"Amen to that" Allison said and Five let out a sigh "Look, when I went to The Commission, I had a conversation with my 100-year-old self. And his last words were, 'Don't save the world'" he said "'Don't save the world'?" Viktor said "'Don't save the world'" Five repeated as his face felled.

"And what about Natasha?" Diego asked as he pointed at Natasha "You talk to her too? 'Cause I'm sure her 100-year-old self would have giving your 100-year-old self a punched or a slap for saying that" he said "I was probably dead, Diego" Natasha said before she looked at Five "Right, I wasn't there 'cause I was dead?" Natasha asked and Lila nodded while Five's face fell.

"That's the stupidest thing I've ever heard" Diego said "Is it?" Luther asked as he looked at him.

"Well, whatever we're doing's not working. All we ever do is save the world for a day, pat ourselves on the back and then everything goes shit again" Luther said "Yeah, maybe we're the problem" Viktor said "Oh, yeah. Us" Allison said with a scoffs while Natasha walked over to Luna before she picked her up and sat down on the steps, putting Luna on her lap.

"So, wait. Your three's big plan is no plan?" Lila asked "Exactly" Natasha, Five and Zach said "Conscientious objection. Why the hell not? We're tried everything else" Five said before his green eyes met Natasha's light blue ones.

"Look, maybe this just what the universe needs. I say, embrace the apocalypse. See what's on the other side" he said "What it it's...nothing?" Sloane asked "Then it's been nice knowing you all" Five said with the sound of hopeless in his voice.

Five turned to Natasha with a saddened defeated expression painted on his face. What the group didn't know is he was too unsatisfied by this answer. The only thing he wanted was to live a long happy life, with Natasha by his side, but he knew he had to listen to his future self.

"Whatever's on your bucket list, I recommend you do that now" Five said before him and Zach walked over and sat down next to Natasha.

Five took Luna and put her on his lap "Hey buttercup. I'm sorry" he said before he kissed her tiny soft fingers.

Everyone fell silent as they took in his words with their hearts and minds.

For so long, Natasha, Five and Zach just wanted to live a normal family life but fate told them otherwise. Not saving the world and waiting for the world to end didn't sound like the worst idea now. They hoped that when they finally did go, they would go together and live a normal family life in the afterlife.

The couple were sad over that their son Zach and their daugther Luna wouldn't get the chance to live a normal life.

But on the other hand, maybe they should fight more for this, for the sake of Luna who was still too young for all of this. For their sake of their kids.

But since there was no other plan and the end of the universe was close, it was best to just accepted it.

Luther and Sloane then looked at each other with a smile "Well, on that...super happy note, we've, um..." Luther said, not knowing how to tell the others "Oh, what the hell" he said before they got up.

"We've, uh, got a little announcement to make" Luther said and Natasha looked at Five "They are either engaged or they are moving to the moon together" she said "Want to do one finally bet?" Five asked as he looked at her with a raise brow "You do know that I have won almost every bet we had made" she said "Yeah, almost, but this time I will win" he said "Oh, really" she said "Yeah. Are you scared?" he asked "Alright, you are on Honey, 10 bucks on that they are moving to the moon cause that would be predicted" she said "Fine. But let's made this more fun, if I win and they are engaged, I want a dance at the wedding and if you win and they are moving to the moon. I will do anything you want, like the dirty stuff, for we do need another round before the world ends" he said "You are so on" she said before they smiled to each other.

Luther and Sloane looked at each other before they took a deep breath "We're engaged!" they both said smiling as Sloane showed her finger which had a ring on it.

"Kill me, Jesus" Ben said quietly "Idiots" Five mumbled with dejected sigh before he looked at his girlfriend with a raise brow "Damn it" she said.

"Now?" Allison asked "Yeah. Look, we realize the timing is less than ideal. But, obviously, it's now or never. Am I right, Five?" Luther said as he pointed on Five with a smile "Don't drag me into this, please" he said.

"What...Whatever time we have left, we wanna spend it with all of you. So we're super pumped if you would join us in the banquet hall at 6:00 p.m. for a celebration of our love, and the official union of what's left of our two great families" Sloane said as she looked at the others "Dress code is creative black-tie" Luther said and Sloane laughed.

Luther and Sloane then began handing out the invitations they had made to the others.

The invitations was small jars with rocks that was laying in a baskets as they handed them out.

A wedding might have been just what they all needed but it wasn't what most wanted. Getting ready to die was not a celebration they wanted to partake in, especially if it involved marking something new.    

"Wow" Lila said with a small laugh as she was looking at her invitations "And you did all of this yourself?" Natasha asked "Luther helped too. We stayed up all night" Sloane said as she gave Natasha and Five a invitation that was addressed to both of them "Amazing" Lila said "I love them, Amazing job" Natasha said "Good job" Zach said as he was holding his invitation.

Then all of a sudden Reginald and Klaus came up the stairs to them.

"Dad?" Ben and Beth said in surprise "Klaus" Allison said as their return shock all of them since they thought that they had been Kugelblitz.

"Hey" Klaus said "Oh, thank God" Viktor said "There you are" Natasha said "Where the hell have you being?" Zach asked.

Then suddenly Luna stood up and started walking over to Klaus which cause Natasha, Zach and Five to smile wide.

"Hey here, little cutie pie" Klaus said before crouched down and opened up his arms as Luna walk towards him

"Awww" everyone except Reginald, Allison and Ben said as Luna felled into Klaus' arms.

He smiled as he lifted her up "Luna that was amazing, who is getting big" he said a smile while Luna giggeled.

"Gather 'round, children. Quickly now!" Reginald suddenly said as Klaus gave Luna back to Five and Natasha.

Natasha and Zach was about to get up but then Five stopped them "No" he said "Why? We are not one of his children" Natasha said "But you are both part of the family and if you leave, so do I. Let's just see what the old man have to say" Five said "Okay, but we don't trust him" Natasha said as both her and Zach sat back down "Either do I" Five said.

"The hell have you been?" Diego asked Klaus "Oh, Reg and I. We got tangled up in a whole father-son end-of-the-world road trip kinda thing. You know" Klaus said "You two are hanging now?" Ben asked.

"We laughed, we cried, we played in traffic, and long story short, I'm immortal now" Klaus said and and grunt dramatically.

"Whoa, wait. You're what now?" Luther asked while both Natasha and Zach furrowed their brows before they took a quick glance at Five who look just as confused as the rest.

"Klaus, have you gotten into the bath salts again?" Allison asked.

"I think the more pertinent question is, why are you all playing with jars?" Reginald asked as he saw that everyone had small jars filled with rocks in their hands.

Lila poured her rocks down while Diego threw the jar away. "They're invitations" Sloane said as the sound of a jar clatters was heard.

"Nobody's playing" Luther said "Luther and I are getting married" Sloane said as she handed a invitation to Reginald "All of space and time is collapsing, and you are planning a wedding?" Reginald asked "Yeah, and, uh, the things is, um" Luther said as he got up and walked over to Sloane and Reginald.

"Space is limited. So it's kind of a per-plate situation, so, you know" he said before he took the jar from Reginald "Is this how I raised you? To fiddle while Roms burns?" Reginald asked "Well, from what I heard you were the worse dad in the world, giving them childhood trauma, emotional abuse them, experimented on them. So in my opinion you have no right to ask them for a favor" Natasha said and Reginald looked at her .

He was about to step closer to her but Five and Zach got up before they walk in front of her "Lay a hand on my family and I will kill you" Five said as Klaus walked over to Reginald "Remember what we talked about, Reg" he said to Reginald "Remember to breathe" he said "Quiet, I'm on a roll" Reginald said before taking a step back while Zach and Five sat down with Natasha again.

"Dad, have you been taking your pills?" Sloane asked "As a matter of fact, I haven't. And I can confirm that I've never felt better in my life. You thought you could dope me up and slow me down, take control of my affairs and squander my fortune. Well, Klaus here was good enough to wean me off that wretched poison. And now that the fog is lifting, I can see all your dastardly designs with a bracing clarity" Reginald said and Sloane looked at Klaus "You took him off his meds? What were you thinking?" she asked.

"He's the only one doing any thinking. All of you could learn a thing or two from this impressive young man" Reginald said as he pointed at Klaus and Diego chuckled while he crossed his arms over his chest "The world really is ending! Oh my God" he said while laughing.

"As for you the rest of you, your training is to resume post-haste. We're running out of time. We're have a mission to complete" Reginald said "I'm ready. Let's do this" Ben said to his dad.

"Let me guess" Five said and Reginald looked at him "Project Oblivion?" he, Natasha and Zach said with a smile "How do you three know about that?" Reginald asked them "We heard all about it from Pogo" Five replied.

"Now, there's a name I haven't heard in some time" Reginald said "And he confirmed what I've always suspected about you" Five said "Which is?" Reginald asked "That you're a sadistic lunatic who's planning on gambling all of our lives in another pointless mission" Five said.

"And you'd take the word of a disgruntled chimp over that of your own father?" Reginald asked and Five blinked right up in front of him "Every damn day" he said as he looked him with rage in his eyes and a sarcastic smile on his face.

"Nobody wants you here, Dad. You should leave" Luther said "Hey, you don't speak for all of us, big guy" Ben said to him "You're feel free to join him" Luther said as he glanced at him.

"I see. So this is what it's come to. Insurrection" Reginald said and Klaus shushed him "That's not the kind of erection we're driving for here, all right? Everybody just needs to be cool. Clearly, you guys are on a different chakra frequency right now" he said to him before he grabbed Reginald's arm "Hey Pops, let's go have a nice cup of tea in the suite" Klaus said "Let go of my arm" Reginald said "Luther, Sloane. Oh my God. I'm beyond thrilled" Klaus said as he began to walk away, pulling Reginald with him.

"You guys are gorgeous. Amazing. Send me your registry" Klaus said as the two left.

"Come guys, we better get ready" Natasha said as she picked up Luna in her while getting up and walked away with Five behind her.

"Hey, Viktor" Luther said and sat down next to him "Um, I got a question. Well, really, it's more of a request, um...it's totally last minute, and...The whole thing is last minute, but I--" Luther said "What is it?" Viktor asked "Will you be my best man?" Luther asked and Viktor's eyes widened "You don't have to do much. You just have to stand next to me and make sure I don't act like an idiot" Luther said "Like you need any help with that" Zach said as he walked past them "Must you always attack me with words?" Luther asked "You want me to use rocks instead?" Zach asked.

"Thanks Zach" Luther said sarcastic "Any time Uncle" Zach said and Luther looked back at Viktor "You know" he said and chuckled "I would love to" Viktor said "Okay. Great" Luther said with a smile "Um, okay, so we're on a tight schedule. The bachelor party is in 15 minutes, and not everyone is invited--" "What was that?" Ben asked, cutting Luther off and they looked at him.

"Nothing, man" Luther said and chuckled "Nothing" he said and Ben walked away.

---

"You okay?" Natasha asked as she put Luna in her crib.

"We have failed Darling, it's over" he said as he turned around to face her and she saw the tears in his eyes.

Five have hold it together the best he could for so long, but he couldn't hold it together anymore. He was exhausted and tired and after everything he has being through, he just wanted to break down but he have hold himself together so long cause he didn't want anyone to see him as weak or fragile.

But when he was with Natasha, he felt like he could let all his emotions out so this was it.

Before he could stop it, tears started running down from his eyes "I tried Darling. I really tried" he cry as he looked down.

Without saying anything, she walked over to him before wrapping her arms around him.

The only hugs he have gotten was actually from Natasha and Zach, not from his siblings, but his girlfriend and son have actually being the only that he have actually gotten a hug from.

"I'm so sorry. I broke your life. It's my fault that you wouldn't get that life you deserve" he cried "No, no" Natasha said as she pulled away and she put his face in her hands.

"It's not your fault. You have giving me everything I always wanted. Of course I'm sad over that I don't get to live it at the fullest, but I rather die tomorrow than live a whole life without knowing you" she said "I feel the same way, I rather die tomorrow than live a whole life without knowing you" he said as a tear felled from his eyes.

"You have not destroyed my life Five, you have making it all better, okay. You gave me a family" she said "You've really changed everything for me" he said "And you have for me" she said "You have giving me everything I need but never thought I would need" he said "I'm sorry that we don't get to live that normal life together and that Luna don't get to live that childhood and life we wanted and Zach don't get to continue with his life" she said "I'm sorry too" he said "But as least we got to live a life together in the Commission, together with our son and that's always something I will cheer forever" she said "Me too" Five said.

"I know you did your best and you can always be proud of that. Think about it, if it hasn't being for you, your siblings would have being dead, three times already, so no matter what people say, you are and always will be the true hero" she said as she wipe away a tear that was rolling down his cheek with your thumb and he smiled.

"So are you going to the wedding?" he asked "Of course" she said "Can I have a dance?" he asked "Of course you can, you won the bet, but you knew that I would have dance with you anyway" she said and he smiled.

Five tilted his head, letting his hair fell in front of his eyes as he hid a smile. He wish he had spent time with his girlfriend and daugther instead of hunting for answered that didn't exist.

"But right now, you have a bachelor to go to" she said "Do I really have to go?" he asked "Yes" she said "I rather stay here with you and Luna" he said "I want that too. But is Luther's bachelor, you have to" she said "Can't you come?" Five asked "It's a bachelor, meaning only men are invited" she said.

"I don't want to leave you" Five said "We will be be fine. You do have to go. And it's not like we will get Kugleblitz yet" she said as she put her hands on his collar "And I think that we can survive a little time away from each other" you said as you fix his collar "Beside you deserve to take your mind of the whole save the worlds things and actually enjoy this night" she said "I will enjoy it most with you" he said "You need this, now go" she said. You deserve to take your mind off thing and have some fun" she said.

Then the door opened and Zach who was in a suit enter "Ready?" he asked and the couple turn to look at him "Handsome as your dad" Natasha said and Zach smiled.

"You couldn't let the beanie down for just the wedding?" Five asked as the couple notice that Zach still had his beanie on his head "Hey, I love this beanie, you two gave it to me" Zach said.

Five then turned back to look at Natasha "Go" she said "What will you be doing?" he asked "Luna and I will get ready for the wedding" she said "I can't wait to see what you will be wearing" he said before he gave her a quick kiss.

"Go. And don't dare come back drunk, otherwise no dance at the wedding" she said "Don't worry, I wouldn't" he said before he walked towards the exit.

"Keep an eye on your dad, make sure he don't get drunk at the bachelor" Natasha said as she looked at Zach and he nodded "I will babysit dad, don't worry mom" he said before he turned around and walked after his dad.

Diego was in a room sitting on the couch while flipping his knife when Lila stood in the doorway "Are you still playing hard to get?" she asked "Quiet. I'm brainstorming" he said "Smells like it. Crack a window" she said as she entered the room "Look, I just got a lot of things to think through" he said "Think what through?" she asked "The end of everything" he said "Mmm. Okay. Well, while we're all waiting for the big breakthrough, the boys are waiting downstairs before the wedding" she said "I'm not going to that wedding" Diego said as he threw his knife away "Like hell you're not. You're my plus-one. Get dressed!" she said as she walked over to him.

"I'm not going to no stupid wedding at the end of the world when I'm supposed to be saving it, alright?" he said "Our best bet was a human Rubik's Cube, and he went kablooey. What do you suggest?" she asked "Gotta be somebody's ass we can kick" he said and she took his belt off.

"What are you doing?" he asked "You're going to the wedding" she said "We got a kid to take care of" he said "You think I don't know that? I'm the one incubating that brat--" she said as she pulled him off the couch and down on the floor.

"Then I don't get why you're not fighting harder for this" he said "Not all fights are worth fighting for. Odds are, we don't survive this one" she said "I'll take those odds if it mean I get to spend it with you and the baby" he said and she looked at him while his eyes widened in shock over what he had just said "What happened to Mr. Lone Wolf doesn't need anybody?" she asked "He met a crazy lady. Changed his mind" he said and she smiled before she gave him a kiss.

"I love you, Diego, but I'm not gonna go on some doomed mission with your shaggy brother and senile father" she said "You have to listen--" "No" she said, cutting him off "You spend tonight fighting your bloody apocalypse or being with me" she said "Don't do that" he said "You can't have both" she said as she leaned back while they were looking at each other.

She then stood up and started walking towards the door.

"Lila" he said and she stopped before she turned around and looked at him as he stood up.

He then threw her that bracelet they made together in the Asylum "I choose you" he said and she smiled before she ran towards him, jumping into his arms and kissed him.

---

Natasha was getting ready when suddenly it knock on her door and she turned around before she opened it to see Sloane holding a red dress.

"Here, a dress for you" she as she hold it up "It's beautiful, thank you so much" Natasha said as Sloane handed her the dress.

"Can I ask you for a favor?" Sloane asked "Anything" Natasha said as she was looking at the dress "Can Luna be the flower girl" Sloane said and Natasha looked back at her "I know that she is only one and can't walk complete yet, but either you or Five, or Zach could help her and---" "I love that idea. She would love it" Natasha said cutting her off and Sloane smiled.

"Hey" a voice said and the two turned to see Lila "Ready for me to do your hair?" Lila asked and Natasha nodded.

"Well, I better get back to knitting my wedding dress" Sloane said before she looked back at Natasha "Thank you so much for the dress" Natasha said "You're welcome. And thank you for the help" Sloane said before she turned around and left.

Karaoke version of 'Total Eclipse of the Heart' was playing as Five, Zach, Diego, Viktor and Klaus was sitting down while Luther did karaoke.

"Get it, Luther" Klaus said "Every now and then I fall apart. Every one and then I fall apart. And I need you now tonight. I fuckin' need you more than ever..." Luther sang "That sound terrible" Zach said.

"Doesn't he have the voice of an angel?" Klaus asked "No" Zach said while Diego light a cigar as Five, Zach and Viktor was taking a sip of their glass.

"Yeah, baby, hit those high notes" Klaus shouted to Luther "Sing it, baby" Klaus said.

"Can't believe Luther's the first one of us that gets hitched" Diego said "I can. I caught him marrying my action figures in, like, third grade" Viktor said "Did not" Klaus said and Viktor nodded which cause Zach to let out a chuckled.

"This is actually not that bad. Not how I expected for my first bachelor, but it's better than nothing" he said.

"This isn't how I picture our bachelors' party, you know?" Diego said before he put his cigar between his teeth.

"Well, the world's running a little short on strippers and tea cakes right now" Klaus said "Just surprised you didn't invite Daddy Dearest to come join us" Five said "Oh, come on. He's such a kind and thoughtful soul. He's not like our Hargreeves. Au contraire. But I'll admit I needed a break from the old dog" Klaus said and took a sip from his glass.

"Nothing I can say. Total eclipse of the heart" Luther sang before he let go of the mic "Oh" he said "Woo!" Viktor said "What's you SOBs so down in the mouth about? This is a party" Luther said as he sat down next to Viktor "I'm just so glad we got to go out with a big ol' band while we still can. Hey, here's to us" Klaus said before getting up and he lifted his glass as the others got up "We've had a hell of a run" he said before he looked at Zach "Zach, we are so happy over that you, Natasha and Luna mom have become part of the family, so cheers to that" Klaus said as he lifted up his glass "Cheers" they say as they all cheers before they all took a sip of their glass.

"Who's next?" Luther asked "Oh. That'd be me 'cause I have finally come to a decision" Five said "What's it gonna be, maestro?" Klaus asked "It's gonna be a duet, my friend, with my son" Five said before he looked Zach "Come on buddy" Five said "Oh god. Fine" Zach said as he got up.

"Yay. I feel so special" Klaus said as him, Zach and Five walked up on stage.

Five gave Klaus and Zach a mic "Oh. This is gonna be good" Luther said "No karaoke is good. That's the point" Diego told him.

"Now, I've had the time of my life! No, I never felt this way before..." Five sang "Whoo" Luther said while clapping "Yes I swear" Five and Zach sang "All right!" Luther said as he cheered them "It's the truth..." Zach sang as him, Five and Klaus looked at each other.

"I'm gonna miss this" Luther said "And I owe it all to you..." Five sang "Not me. These guys are the worst" Viktor said "Had the time of my life" Klaus and Zach sang as Five slid a piece of his hair away from his face.

"That's not what I meant" Luther said "I know" Viktor said "And I owe it all to you!" Klaus sang while Five took a sip of his bottle "I'm gonna miss them too" Viktor said.

Then the instrumental break started playing "Oh! Gettin' funky in here!" Klaus said as he shook his body to the music.

"Hey, will you do me one more favor?" Luther asked "Yeah, anything" Viktor said "Talk to Allison" Luther said "No. Come on. I can't--" Viktor said "Viktor, please" Luther said "And...And say what? 'Why did you kill my friend'?" Viktor asked "You really wanna compare body counts?" Luther said and Viktor looked at him "I just...I don't want her to be alone when all this ends, you know? I mean, Five said it. If there's anything on your bucket list, do it now" Luther said "Why does it have to be on my list?" Viktor asked "Because she's always been good to you. Better than the rest of us" Luther said.

"Cause we seem to understand the urgency. Just remember..." Five, Zach and Klaus sang, and Five pulled Zach's beanie down so it covered his eyes which cause him to smile before he readjust it again.

Five then took a step forward "Luther!" he called out as a invite to come up to the stage "Oh!" Luther said "Come on. Come on" Five said and Luther laughed as he got up to them.

"Viktor. Viktor, don't be shy. Diego, you too" Five said "You don't want this" Viktor said as he got up "Okay, screw it" Diego said "Get in here, Diego" Five said "Come on! Come on! Look lively!" Klaus said.

"This could be love" Five and Klaus sang "Because I've had the time of my life. No, I never felt this way before" they all sang.

The boys all sang together while dancing.

But they didn't noticed Ben standing up on the second floor by the railing, looking down at them.

---

Ben walked into Sloane's room as she was sitting knitting her wedding dress "So it's official. My ears are broken, and the idiot with knives really can't sing" Ben said "Diego. You know his name is Diego" Sloane said "Oh, whatever" Ben said "Maybe you should try and be nice to him and the others" she said "And why would I do that?" he asked "As much as I'd love to work out your anger issues right now, I have to get back to this. The wedding is in an hour" she said "Fei is dead" he said "Yeah. I know. And so are the others" she said "Oh, so that's it? You're just gonna turn back on the Sparrow Academy? I mean, you heard Dad. We have training to do. Something big is about to go down" he said "I wish you were talking about my wedding" she said and he inhale sharply "Okay" he said before he sat down in front of her.

"Sloane, listen to me--" he said but she cut him off "No. You listen to me. I'm sorry they didn't invite you to the bachelor party" she said "I don't...I don't care about that" he said "Yes, you do. You care more about being invited to the bachelor party than you do Fei or the others. Or even saving the world" she said "That..." he said and chuckled "That's--" he said and chuckled "That's...That's...crazy" he said "Is it? You and I, we've never been alone. It's always been the seven of us. Now it's just you" she said and Ben scoffs "So congratulations, Ben. You're finally Number One of one" she said as she got up.

"I'm a Sparrow, and so are you" he said "Not anymore" she said and Ben stood up "What's do damn special about them anyway?" he asked "They're a real family. They don't exist to sell action figures and tote bags" she said "We were more than that" he said "Were we?" she asked and he looked down "Why is it so important for you to be a Sparrow?" she asked and he looked at her before he walked over to the door.

"Because I have nothing else" he said quietly before leaving.

---

The door to Natasha's and Five's hotel room was pushed opened and a happy singing voice enter the room.

"Honey, I'm hoommme" Five sang.

"Some say you had a nice time" Natasha said from the bathroom "I did, it was amazing" he said before he tucked his hands into his pockets as he walked further into the room.

"Are you coming? I need my plus one" he said "In a minute" she said from the bathroom.

Five then looked at Luna who was sitting on the bed "Hey Luna bear" he said and poke her nose before kissing her forehead.

"Guess what. Luna is gonna be the flower girl" Natasha said "That sounds sweet, but are you sure that she can do it?" Five asked "Yeah, you and I can hold her hands and then I will throw the flowers" Natasha said and Five nodded.

Then the door to the bathroom opened and Natasha exit, wearing a red dress.

Five's eyes widened at the sight "So how do I look?" she asked "You look like an angel" he said.

"You know that you sing better than Luther" she said "You heard that?" he asked "The whole hotel heard it. And after being tormented by Luther's terrible vocals, you sing better than him" she said "When did Luther tortured you with his voice?" Five asked "When you were at The Commission with Zach. He was making a love mix tape to Sloane and I heard him singing to the music" she said and Five nodded "I'm sorry, I left you" he said "No, don't be, you did it 'cause you thought it would help to figure out a way to stop this, and that is not your fault that there was no answer, you tried, more than anyone else did" she said and he smiled before he stroke a single piece of her hair behind her ear.

She smiled before they pressed their foreheads against each other. 

"You know, if now the world wasn't ending. What did you want?" he asked "As crazy as it is, I actually wanted what we had at the Commission, Without all the killing and The Handler and everything that was wrong with it, of course. I want it to be just you, me, Zach and Luna, our kids" she smiled as she thought of it. "You know I dream about it every night"

"Me too" he said, sad over that the two of them never got to have that life together.

"Can I kiss you before we get going to this wedding?" he asked as he moved his hands to her waist.

"Only if you make it quick. We don't want to be late" she said and Five's right hand left he waist and as he placed his hand on her cheek, cupping her jaw with his fingers, he pulled her closer by her waist before pushing his lips against hers.

She tore her lips from Five's, pressing her right hand on his right chest and she leaned against the desk that Five had lifted up her onto.

"As much I would love to take this further" she said as they both still had their foreheads rested against each other.

"We have a wedding to attempt to" she said and he pulled away from her with a final kiss being placed on her forehead.

Five then walked over before he picked Luna up in his arms "Ready to go to your first and unfortunately last wedding?" he asked "Da" Luna said.

"Let's go. Miss Romanoff" Five said as he stretched his free arm towards her "Lead the way, Mr. Hargreeves" she said before grabbing his hand.
