"𝐖𝐇𝐄𝐍'𝐒 𝐈𝐓 𝐒𝐔𝐏𝐏𝐎𝐒𝐄𝐃 𝐓𝐎 𝐇𝐀𝐏𝐏𝐄𝐍? This...apocalypse." Luther while sitting on the same chair as before when he was talking with Y/n.
Five had woken up and was sitting on the edge of the bed while Y/n was sitting on a chair that was to Luther's left on the other side of the room.
Y/n was just sitting there with her crossed arms listening to what Five is explaining.
"I can't give you the exact hour, but..."Five tried to put all of the information into one sentence."...from what I could gather, we have four days left."
"Why didn't you two say something sooner?" Luther glanced at Y/n and back at Five but she just shook her head.
"It wouldn't have mattered." Five muttered silently.
"Of course it would. We could've banded together and helped you try to stop this thing." Luther reasoned with a higher tone.
Y/n looked up to that remark since she already knew what Five was about to say.
"For the record, you already tried."
"What do you mean?"
Five kept looking at the ground and didn't say anything for like 4 seconds."We found all of you." He looked at Y/n.
"You bodies." Y/n nodded.
Luther just looked back at her in shock and back at Five."We die?"
"Horribly." Five replied as memories of seeing the bodies of their siblings under the academy bricks for Five and Y/n flashed their minds.
"You were together," Y/n started and the two of them looked at her." trying to stop whoever it was that ends the world."
"Wait, how do you know that?" Luther looked at Five confused.
Five pulled out the eye wrapped in a fabric material out of his pocket."This was clutched in your dead hand when we found you."
Five showed the eye to Luther and threw it to him so that he could take a look.
"Must've ripped it out of their head right before you went down."
"Whose head?"
"Like I said, we don't know." He looked at Y/n and their glances met each other. They stared at one another for 5 seconds before Luther interrupted them.

"Well, there's a serial number on the back." Luther examined the eye in his hands."Think maybe you could try-"
"No, that's a dead end." Five chuckled."It's just another hunk of glass."
Luther gave the eye back to Five but then Diego burst through the door by kicking it with his feet.
"Piece of shit." He quickly ran down the stairs and Luther and Y/n stood up."Do you have any idea what you just did?" Diego was running towards Five and Y/n. Y/n came closer to Five so that they would be together. But Luther stopped Diego by taking him in his hands.
"Nope, let me-get your ape hands off of me!" Diego yelled as Luther picked him up from the ground.
"I can do this as long as it takes you to calm down." And as Luther said that Diego stopped moving.
"Fine." Diego was finally put down by Luther.
"Now, you wanna tell us what you're talkin' about?" Luther calmly asked.
"Our siblings have been pretty busy since they got back." Diego kept glaring at Five and Y/n while Five sat there with a blank look but Y/n had a nervous one."They were in the middle of that shootout at Griddy's, and then at Gimble Brothers, after the guys in masks attacked the academy, looking for them." Diego pointed at the two of them.
"None of which is any of your concern." Five replied.
"It is now. They just killed my friend." Tears started forming in Diego's eyes.
Luther turned around and looked at the pair. Y/n had a scared and worried look thinking how this was their fault. But Five just kept looking normally.
"Five, Y/n," Luther looked at them." who are they?"
"They work for our former employer. A woman called The Handler." Five started.
"She sent them...to stop us." Y/n added looking down and at Diego with a look that said "I'm sorry".
"Then, as soon as Diego's friend got in their way, well, fair game." Five finished.
"And now they're my fair game. And I'm gonna see to it they pay." Diego started walking out.

"No, Diego don't do that." Y/n tried to stop him.
"That would be a mistake. They've killed people far more dangerous than you." Five also tried to help Y/n.
"Yeah, we'll see about that!" Diego yelled as he walked out and slammed the door. Luther looked at the pair and Y/n sat down on her chair again.
"Former employer"? Y/n explained something but you tell me now everything, ok? Luther said and Five looked at Y/n thinking if she talked about their past but she just looked down.
"Well, it's a long story." Five simply replied and Luther sat down.
Five explained how The Handler found him and how he took on the deal but he did not mention the part where he lied to Y/n. He also explained about the job, how he broke the contract, and all of that. All of the time, Y/n just kept looking down at the ground, not wanting to make eye contact with anyone.
After Five explained everything, Luther gave him a plate with some food and a cup of coffee."So you two were hitman and hitwoman?"
"Yes."
"Uh...I mean, you had a code, right? You didn't kill just anybody." Luther asked sitting down.
"No code. We took out anyone who messed with the timeline." Y/n explained looking around the room and back at Luther.
"What about innocent people?"
"It was the only way we could get back here." Five looked at Y/n and she just sighed and nodded in agreement.
"But that's murder."
"Jesus, Luther, grow up. We're not kids anymore. There's no such thing as good guys or bad guys. There's just people goin' about their lives. But when the world ends, all those people die, including our family." Five was glaring at Luther the whole time but Luther just had a shocked look. Y/n looked up at Five with an understanding look.
"Time changes everything."

𝐘/𝐍 𝐖𝐀𝐒 𝐈𝐍 𝐇𝐄𝐑 𝐑𝐎𝐎𝐌 at the academy while Five was talking with Klaus. She changed into a new set pair of uniform and just laid down on her bed. She looked at the ceiling sighing and trying to just calm down. She sat up on the edge of the bed and touched her face with her hands.
Then at that moment, Diego was walking past her room.
"Y/n? You ok?" He asked stopping in his tracks.
"Diego." She looked up and wiped her tear away.
"Is something wrong?" He walked inside the room and bend down on his knees so he was on her level.
"I'm just...I'm very sorry about your friend. The thought that Five and I came back in order to help and save everyone and we are doing quite opposite, is just..." She sobbed a little bit.
"Hey, hey, it's ok. I understand you did not want for that to happen." He hugged her and they were both laying on the floor together.
"I'm so sorry for your loss, Diego...I really am..." Y/n sobbed softly in his hands.
"It's ok, I forgive you, it's not your fault-"
"But it is! Those assassins won't stop until Five and I are dead and now they just killed more people..." She interrupted Diego.
"Listen, I will kill those psychopaths, ok? Sooner or later, they will be dead." He took her head and touched it so that she was looking straight into his eyes.
"But they are much stronger than you might think, Diego..." She touched his hands.
"But I am stronger than them, Y/n." He looked at her in the eyes as she looked in his. They both stared like that until Diego helped Y/n stand up.
"I have to go, ok?" He started walking towards the door.
"Just promise me one thing, ok?" She stopped him in his tracks.
"What?"
"Be careful." She said softly.
"I promise." He walked out and she sighed. She sat down on her bed and after about 30 seconds Five walked past her room to his.
"Hey, you ok?" He walked inside the room and sat down.
"Yeah, I'm fine." She looked at him."Just... never mind, what is it?"
"I need your help, ok? Your and Delores's help." He asked her looking at her.
"What kind of help?"

GIG: God In Gold
So let's cut the pretense: this is some garbage-tier weaboo fiction. I have no idea what I'm doing, but I feel it's important to say that this is some nonsense I write for fun. I don't think it's very good. I'd even go as far as to say that I'm not a good writer at all. I picked up a ball that started rolling when I was a kid and have been intermittently punting it towards the next chapter whenever I feel like it. And you can come on this garbage ride too if you really feel like it. Who knows, maybe there's some gold to be salvaged from this dumpster fire? Synposis: Satou Shibuya is a first year student at Niflheim's Kawagusa General Academy. He's also the self-proclaimed strongest power user, sporting a big enough number on his birth certificate to make a nuclear bomb glow green with envy. There's something to be said about a person whose head is so far up their own ass that you find yourself watching their every move with bated breath, ever curious to see which hole they'll dig themselves into next. This is not that kind of story. This is a story about pride, coming of age, but actually, this is a story about big, stupid superpowered fights. Update Schedule: Whenever.
