Third timeline: Reginald Hargreeve's estate

Viktor put up a really good fight. Five had a bad feeling that the whole plan was going to go badly wrong. In three, two, one. Evil Sara used her powers and became invisible. (Shit!) Viktor thought to himself. But Viktor could still perceive Sara, which none of the others present could. Viktor reached behind him, grabbed Sara and threw her to the ground in front of him. Meanwhile, Evil Sara became visible again. "How did you do that?" asked Evil Sara in surprise. "I won't tell you!" hissed Viktor.

"How do you know my fighting techniques?" roared the angry Sara indignantly. "Maybe I just have the same technique as you." scoffed Viktor. Somehow, the character's manner didn't fit at all with the Viktor the Umbrella's knew. "All right, suit yourself," said the evil version of Sara with a nasty grin. (Oh, no, please don't.) Viktor thought to himself.

Evil Sara turned into Viktor. (Shit!) Thought five. Now the plan was really backfiring. "Who's the real Viktor now?" slurred Klaus loudly, drunk on alcohol. The two Diego's tried to stab each other with their knives. Marcus and Luther were still beating each other up.

At some point, Marcus jumped off Luther and grabbed the perplexed Allison, who was not at all prepared for this. Before Allison knew it, she was brutally thrown against a glass cabinet. The glass panes of the display case shattered and Allison fell through the shards of glass. Allison got a lot of cuts and started to bleed. Allison hit the floor motionless.

The evil version of Tiara tried to grill Ben with her laser eyes and lightning bolts. But Ben skillfully dodged. Nevertheless, it wasn't easy when you couldn't use your powers.

Suddenly it became bright in the room. Everyone paused for a moment and looked up at the chandelier on the ceiling. The chandelier was decorated with diamonds and crystals that were reflected. Then a mirrored portal opened and two people fell through it. "Ahhhhhhh!" the two people were heard screeching.

The two people hit the ground with a thud. "Ouch! Did you just have to choose a chandelier with diamonds? Couldn't you have looked for a normal standing mirror?" Tiara asked Laura. "Sorry, I'm sorry, it just happened that way." Laura apologized. "Where are the others?" Laura then asked, looking around carefully. "I have no idea. I'm not sure. Maybe we should call her in?" Tiara suggested. "Fine. You do that," Laura said to Tiara.

Tiara and Laura had just righted themselves when Evil Diego threw a knife in their direction. Laura stood in front of Tiara. The knife caught Laura quite hard in the ribs. Laura screamed and toppled to the side. The Umbrella's looked at Laura in shock. Laura was lying on the floor. Her eyes were wide open. Slowly, Laura began to dissolve into silver and purple dust particles.

"You'll regret this!" Tiara hissed at Evil Diego. Before Evil Diego could react, he was grilled by Tiara Soraya. Evil Diego also fell to the ground, dead. "One less opponent," Tiara Soraya muttered. Umbrella Diego stopped shaking and scratching himself. With the death of evil Diego, the paradox psychosis had stopped.

"Wait a minute! Why am I duplicated now and don't have a paradox psychosis like Diego just did?" asked Evil Tiara. "None of your business!" hissed Tiara Soraya at Evil Tiara. "Ben go on! Drop your mask, we need your tentacles now," Tiara Soraya said to Ben.

"You got it, sis," said Ben Soraya with a mischievous smile and a twinkle in his eye. "Sis?" asked Luther, Diego, Klaus, and Viktor at the same time, confused. "Adoptive siblings, to be precise. But more on that later." Tiara corrected Soraya.

Ben Soraya stretched out his tentacles and grabbed evil Marcus. Marcus was so perplexed that he registered it too late and was tied up by Ben's tentacles. Marcus realized how the tentacles were squeezing tighter and tighter around him. Ben wanted to suffocate and kill Marcus.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and another Diego appeared in the doorway. It was Diego Soraya. Diego Soraya came to Marcus with an axe and simply chopped off his head. Marcus' head rolled across the floor. Ben Soraya let go of Marcus' body, and he fell lifeless to the floor without his head. Then Diego Soraya disappeared out of the door as quickly as he had come.

The only evil versions still alive were the following: Five's version: Number Three, Evil Tiara and Evil Sara.

"So, now for the three of you. Do you want a truce or do you want to die too?" Tiara asked Soraya to number Three. Evil Sara and her own image. "Well, I'd rather go on truce." said Number Three. "Truce," Tiara's likeness replied. "Reasonable." spoke Tiara. "Good, and where is your Sara?", asked Five suspiciously. "Where's Viktor?", asked Umbrella Diego. "Good question." Klaus added his two cents. "That can't mean anything good." said Lila. "Schit! Viktor is in danger!" Five exclaimed.

"Guys, I'm not feeling very well." Allison said, still lying on the ground. She had now regained consciousness. "Oh no! Allison!" Klaus cried out worriedly. Luther, Diego, and Klaus went over to Allison to help her up. Allison was placed on a sofa, she was bleeding heavily. "Quick, we need bandages! Allison will bleed to death otherwise!" Luther said loudly.

"Luther, give me a break. Allison is going to die. It's too late, we don't have a first aid kit here." Tiara, Soraya said coldly. "Who are you anyway, and who was the girl who was killed and vanished into thin air? What was it with Ben and the three Diego's?" Luther asked rather suspiciously. "You'll find out later," Ben Soraya replied. "What, why later? Why not now?" Luther asked impatiently.

Before anyone could say anything else, two fighting Viktor's came back into the living room. "Who's the real Viktor now?" Klaus repeated his question. "No idea." Luther shrugged his shoulders cluelessly. "You'd probably like to know." one of the two Viktor's scoffed. "It's certainly not you. Viktor would never scoff like that!" Luther triumphed. The other, Viktor, then jumped way to the Umbrella's. Evil Sara, who had transformed as Viktor, was grabbed by Three and Tiara's other version and dragged out of the room.

"Can it get any worse?", Five, asked no one in particular. "Diego, I haven't thanked you and Lila yet." Allison began to speak. "Thanked you? Where for?" Diego asked, confused. "Don't ask Five again if it can get any worse!" Lila hissed in Five's ear. "Sorry." Five hissed back. "Well, for you and Lila saving me from the aliens. The ones Dad tried to sell me for my daughter and husband." Allison continued.

"Em Allison. I don't know anything, and Lila was in hospital for a very long time. Because she got caught by my evil Diego version and lost our baby as a result." Diego clarified. "Then who did I see? If not you and Lila?", Allison asked, startled. "Okay, guys. Allison, you saw me and Diego..." Lila began hesitantly. "What are you saying, Lila?" asked Diego, confused.

"I was really there when I saved you with Diego Soraya. It wasn't Diego Hargreeves. By the way, I'm not Lila Pitts either. I'm actually Lila Soraya." Lila dissolved with a sigh. "What!" Diego, Luther, Klaus, and Allison exclaimed. "Guys, it's time to stop acting." announced Tiara. "What's that supposed to mean, please?", Allison asked weakly. "What! More ... Come on, everyone, go to the tiara that's posing as an Umbrella but isn't an Umbrella!" Luther said forcefully.

At first, nobody moved and it remained quiet. But then something unexpected happened. Five broke away from the Umbrella group and joined his Soraya siblings. "What, how? You're not five!" Luther exclaimed in disbelief. "Yes, that's right! I'm not five. My name is Aidan Soraya!" replied Aidan Soraya energetically. Aidan high-fived Tiara, Lila and Ben.

"Well, anyone else?", Luther asked skeptically. Luther looked at each of the Umbrella's suspiciously. Viktor slowly rose from one of the chairs. Slowly, he headed towards the Soraya siblings. "Viktor! You too?" Diego asked, also surprised. "Yes, but I'm not Viktor." the person replied slowly. "Are you Vikor's twin?" asked Klaus excitedly. "No." laughed the person with Viktor's face. "Then who are you?" Luther asked with narrowed eyes.

"Go on, solve who you are." Tiara said. "Okay." the person with Viktor's appearance took a deep breath. The person closed their eyes and concentrated. Allison, Klaus, Luther, and Diego still looked a little confused. Slowly, Viktor's appearance began to flicker. Then the body began to change. The body formed back to its original shape. When the process was complete.

Evil Sara jumped out of an unexpected corner. But in midair, Evil Sara stopped. She wanted to stop, but it was too late. She crashed into herself. But at the last moment, Sara gave Soraya a piece of advice. Jumping to the side, she caught her Evil version and saved her from the hard ground. "Thank you." Evil, Sara uttered, perplexed. "You need to control yourself, or you'll get yourself into trouble." Sara hissed at Soraya.

"Okay, now I know why you were an equal opponent. You are me. Sort of." Evil Sara realized. "Yep. That's right, and now I would go to the others if I were you." Sara told Soraya sharply. "Or you'll have to be eliminated, otherwise you'll disrupt the plan." Sara Soraya hissed in her other version's ear so that the Umbrella's wouldn't notice. "Okay," the evil Sara replied a little meekly and left the room as if stung by a tarantula. "Okay. What was that just about?" asked Klaus, irritated. "No idea," Sara Soraya replied, shrugging her shoulders.

Out of time: One Classics headquarters

"Thalia, please come to my office!", Nora's voice, echoed through the corridors of the headquarters. Thalia made her way to Nora's office at vampire speed. She knocked on the door. As was proper and as Nora had brought up her children. "Come in." Nora's voice rang out. Thalia opened the door and entered Nora's office. "Okay, what's so important?", Thalia asked curiously. "I had already sent Tiara with a mirror version of Laura to the mission: (Leading Hargreeves astray) earlier. But you're needed now, too. I'll let you help with the bodies." said Nora with a grin.

"Can I really?", Thalia asked with shining eyes, almost begging. "Of course, darling," Nora said with a smile. Like a loving mother would give a child a lollipop to make the child happy. Thalia's grin turned murderous. (She was really looking forward to digging her fangs into the corpses and drinking blood.) Murderously, Thalia rubbed her hands together.

"There's one more thing...", Nora, brought Thalia back to the present from her thoughts. "What other thing?", Thalia asked in vampire grin mode. "You remember Allison Hargreeves, don't you?", Nora asked euphorically. "Of course. What exactly is it about now?" Thalia asked brightly. "Kill Allison Hargreeves!" whispered Nora in a creepy voice. "With the greatest pleasure." Thalia still grinned murderously.

Thalia left the office and looked for one of the mirror versions of Laura. She found one too. Thalia explained what was going on. Laura understood and pulled Thalia through a mirror with her.

With the Hargreeves siblings

"Okay, let me ask you something, if they're not our siblings, but just different versions of them. Then where are Five, Viktor, Lila and Sparrow Ben?" Diego asked the question that had been burning on his tongue for a long time. "Okay, we can tell you that Ben from Sparrow Academy is no longer here in the timeline, and neither is Sloane. We brought them back." Ben began to tell Soraya. "It was a bit easier with him, because the Sparrow's didn't mess around with time! Unlike you!" spoke Aidan Soraya indignantly.

"You sound just like our Brother Five. You look just like him, too. I really have to say, respect. You acted really well." praised Klaus. "Thank you, but I really didn't have to do much. Practically speaking, we're one and the same person, apart from minimal differences in character. But nothing more." Aidan said, bored.

"Well, now that that's settled...," Tiara said quickly. Too quickly. "Well, we didn't really get the whole answer." Luther interjected. "Who are you and where are Five! Viktor and Lila!" Diego asked energetically. Suddenly Aidan, Tiara, Sara, Lila, and Ben started grinning meanly. "Em, why are you suddenly grinning so creepily now?", Klaus asked irritably.

"Where five! Viktor and Lila! You'll find out soon enough." Tiara began. "But for now, we wish you happy dreams." Aidan finished Tiara's sentence. "Wait! What's that supposed to mean?" Diego asked with his last words. Before, Luther, Diego, and Klaus were hit from behind and fell to the ground unconscious.

Allison was the only one still bleeding on the sofa and turned around backwards in shock. Which she had better not have done. Luther Soraya, Diego Soraya and Klaus Soraya were standing behind the sofa. "What? ..." was the only thing Allison managed to say when she was grabbed from behind and looked into blood-red eyes. "Now it's your turn," Thalia said hungrily and creepily. Allison was scared to death and wanted to run away, but too late. Thalia had already buried her vampire fangs in Allison's neck. ...
