𝙑𝘼𝙉𝙔𝘼 𝙇𝙊𝙊𝙆𝙀𝘿 𝙏𝙊 the two dead people on the floor, and then at me, who was still shaken up by the whole ordeal. I helped her get out of the chair and walked into the hallway. We found Allison, Diego, and Klaus at the end.

"Are you okay?" She asked. "Vanya," Allison exclaimed. "Physically or emotionally?" Klaus asked. "You're both alive," Diego said. The three of them sighed in relief. "Did we save the world or what?" Klaus asked. "I think so, building's still here, Allison replied.

Diego checked his watch. "Kennedy's a few minutes away. I can still save him," Diego stood up. "No, Diego, wait!" Allison called after him. I followed them to the window. "I still have time to stop Dad before Kennedy makes his final turn."

"No, no, where are you going?" Allison asked. "Look, I saw the explosion. I saw the tapes, Allison. The explosion causes doomsday. You're safe now," Diego told her. "That doesn't mean you just go stopping a major historical event," I pointed out.

"He doesn't have to die," Diego insisted. "No, no, Diego-"

But he was already out the door. Eventually, Vanya and Klaus joined us at the window. "Kennedy's turning," Allison said. "It's happening again."

"Oh, Jackie," Klaus muttered.

Three gunshots rang out. Whatever Diego tried to do didn't work. Kennedy was dead.

"𝙏𝙃𝙀 𝙁𝘽𝙄 𝘽𝙀𝙇𝙄𝙀𝙑𝙀𝙎 they may have been acting in concert with the alleged shooter, Lee Harvey Oswald. Vanya Hargreeves, wanted in connection with the deaths of several FBI agents inside the federal building at Dealey Plaza. A Cuban exile known only as Diego-"

"Cuban?"

"-who recently escaped from the Holbrook Sanitarium. A bare-knuckle boxer with suspected Mafia ties who fights under the alias 'King Kong.' Allison Chestnut, a Negro radical responsible for instigating and organizing the recent riots at Stadtler's lunch counter. A young girl named (Y/N), who's last name is unknown."

I looked up once I heard my name from the news report. "She was reportedly seen with Jack Ruby, a night club owner who is also connected to King Kong. And finally, Klaus, the controversial cult leader and known tax evader. The FBI is asking for the public to be on the lookout for this unidentified boy, who they believe is being held hostage by the suspected terrorist network."

"Well it's true," Five shrugged. "I do feel like I'm being held hostage most days."

"God I hate that photo," Diego muttered. "They're saying I instigated the riot? That's unbelievable," Allison scoffed. "Look, the good news is that we restored the timeline and stopped doomsday, so-"

"Yeah, a bunch of real goddamn heroes. We let Kennedy die," Diego interrupted Luther. "Yeah, and now we're officially the most wanted people in the world. The FBI is after us, the Dallas police, the Secret Service. It's only a matter of time before they hunt us down here," Allison argued.

"Well, where are we supposed to go?" Vanya asked. "I have this yurt just outside of Reykjavik. We could totally lay low there," Klaus suggested, descending the stairs after taking some time to take in what happened to Ben. "Folks there are a little weird, but lovely. Welcoming-"

"Hey, numbnuts," Five called out. "Hiding's not gonna make a difference here. The Commission will hunt us down wherever and whenever we go."

"He's right. They'll never stop," Diego agreed. "I'm sorry, since when were you an expert on the Commission?" Five questioned. "Since I got back from there," he replied.

"What?"

"Yeah, they headhunted me, offered me a job. Full time with benefits, which I had to turn down," Diego continued. "They headhunted you..."

"...the village idiot."

"What, am I not allowed to be headhunted? Only the almighty Five needs to be in demand?" Diego asked. "Diego, you're not Commission material, all right? Got an obstinate nature to ya."

"Who do you think it was that figured out Vanya was the one that causes doomsday and stopped it? Me. That's who!"

"Hey!" Klaus shouted. We were both thinking about Ben. "I figured it all out on the Infinite Switchboard," Diego continued.

"You were on the Infinite Switchboard?"

"Hell yeah. I made that machine my bitch," Diego stated. "Y'all need to recognize I got shit going on y'all don't even know about."

"Oh, sorry. You've got things going on?"

"This isn't helpful."

"Look, I met the Résistance in their secret lair. All right? I went through orientation and I passed and I stopped doomsday."

"Ok that wasn't even all you!"

We continued to bicker back and forth. "We don't have time for this! The Feds could be here any minute," Luther pointed out. "That's what I've been saying."

"I'm agreeing."

"Okay, calm down Hairy-"

"Hey, it's King Kong. And I'm sick of your ass, okay? Guys, we need to move, okay? That is more important here. That is our only option."

"We need to box those windows and stay here," Diego replied.

"I'm leaving." We all looked at Vanya. "What? To go where?" Allison asked. "Sissy's farm. Something's wrong with Harlan, and I need to help him."

"Vanya. we need to stick together, but okay? Now more than ever," Luther approached her. "That's why I'm telling you this. Whatever's going on with Harlan I think I might've caused it."

"How?"

"He drowned, and, uh, somehow I was able to bring him back to life. And now it's like we're connected," Vanya explained. "Wh-What does that even mean?" Luther asked. "I don't know. I can't explain, but, I know that he needs my help. I need your help too," Vanya continued. "I'm scared. And for the first time in my life, I don't wanna do it alone. I want my family by my side."

Diego walked up to her. "Look, I'm sorry. We have other priorities now," Diego told her. "Diego's right," Five agreed. "For once. We need to make it our stand here and now."

No one else had anything to say. "Okay," Vanya nodded. "I guess I'll see you when I see you." She walked out the door. Klaus sat there a moment more before following her out. The rest of stood in silence.

"Why are you all standing here? Of course we're following her out."

I was first out the door, squeezing in next to Klaus. "(Y/N)?" Vanya questioned. "I'm not letting you face this without me. We've been through too much now."

"Got room for two more?" Allison and Diego slid into the back. "What about the Commission?" Vanya asked. "Well, might as well do some good before we die horribly," Diego replied. "Whoo-hoo!"

Five opened the door next. "Five, you...you don't have to-"

"I know. You owe me one, sis."

Five looked at Klaus sitting next to me. "Children ride in the back," He stared at him. "Okay!" Klaus immediately hopped into the back, climbing over Allison and Diego. "Oh, Christ!" Five smiled at me, our first interaction in awhile. "Guys, I don't know what to say," Vanya said.

Suddenly, the trunk was opened. As Luther climbed in, the whole back of the car was pushed to the ground. It creaked as Luther moved around to shut the door.

"Anyone makes a fat joke, and I'm outta here."

With everyone piled inside, the tail end dragging on the floor, we drove off.
