This was a review prompt: "Allison rumoring Five."

I went over so many ideas until I figured this one out. I hope you like it!

This takes place season 3 when Allison and Viktor are fighting at the family meeting. I did include Klaus in this with a little rewrite.

"No Rumor Heard."

"Allison that's enough!"

But she wasn't done. She was in pain. She wanted Viktor to feel that pain.

All of it.

She was tired of carrying it all. She left 2019 in hopes of saving her daughter. She left the love of her life in the 60s to be with her daughter again…

Now she has neither.

No one to love her.

"We should have left you in the basement." She whispered to Viktor, who was still catching his breath.

Viktor whipped towards her, smacking her in the mouth with a backhand before storming out.

Five stood up, still curious how her latest power upgrade worked. "Are you alright?" He asked.

She looked at, sizing him up. "No," she curled her lip in disgust. "Kill Viktor."

The words were solid and her eyes flashed a gold as Five stumbled back, his eyes flashing white.

"Wait, no Allison!" Luther jumped to grab Five and hold him tightly.

Diego and Klaus stood to this. Lila cautiously edged closer.

Five tried to shake Luther's bear hug off. Luther was trying to talk to him, but he was clearly entranced in Allison's command.

"Undo it!" Diego demanded of his sister.

"Why should I?"

"Because they'll kill each other!" Lila looked at the Hargreaves siblings, as the Sparrows kept their mouths shut.

"Between Viktor constantly ending the world and Five constantly trying to prevent it, we have been stuck in a hell-loop," Allison gave a twisted smile with a little laugh. "Not to mention the Commission constantly trying to kill us because Five put that target on our backs. All of our troubles are because of them."

Five broke free and Luther hesitated slightly, but swung at him. It was better to try to bring him down before he could get a chance to escape.

But once out of his grip, Five was too fast. He blinked out of the room.

"Shit!" Luther turned to Allison, "this has gone far enough! Telling our brother to KILL our other?"

Allison just shrugged.

"You have lost it," Diego realized. He thought he was helping her the other day by bringing her to the bar to fight with bigoted assholes, but maybe he gave her a taste for something else. He turned to Lila. "Can you undo it?"

"Only if I'm there," Allison reminded. "And I don't plan on going anywhere near…"

There was a sudden crash upstairs and everyone looked up.

Allison smirked again. "Sounds like they are figuring it out."

Luther turned to Lila and said in a not-so-hushed tone, "does she have to be conscious?"

Lila shook her head, but kept her eyes on Allison, who started to open her mouth again.

Then there was another, smaller, sound of something breaking and Allison's eyes closed and she crumpled to the ground.

As she dropped she revealed Klaus, holding what was left of a vase in his hand. He looked down at her with a pout.

"Oh…Sorry…" he said, timidly, to her unconscious form.

The rest of the siblings all looked at each other, bewildered.

Luther reached down to lift up Allison, and Diego and Lila were heading into the entrance hall to run up the stairs.

Klaus waved after them and then turned to the Sparrows. "You guys have alcohol, right?"

-UA-

Viktor kept his energy high, like a force field.

"What has gotten into you?" He demanded of Five, who kept trying to get closer, holding a baseball bat in his hand. "I'm sorry for the fight with Allison…"

"Viktor!" He heard Diego call down the hall. "Allison rumored Five to…to attack you."

Well, that would explain it. Viktor thought. He held onto Five with his energy. Five struggled to move and breathe. He started to slow down, and Viktor could hear that his heart was as well.

"Don't knock him out!" Lila was running down the hall. "We need him conscious!" She glance behind her to see how close Luther was.

Close enough.

"I heard a rumor," she started, unsure if she could access Allison's upgrade, "you broke out of Allison's command."

Five's eyes flashed white and he gasped, dropping the baseball bat and relaxing his body.

"Oh thank God."

Viktor cautiously let him down, but kept his energy up just in case Five would try to attack again.

But his older little brother dropped to his knees, hands on the floor, almost trembling.

"Lila, I never thought I would be so thankful to have you part of the family," he admitted, trying to hide how shaky his voice was.

Lila knelt next to him, putting a hand on his back. "You alright, old man?"

Five didn't answer. He balled his hands into fists against the floor and dropped his head down into him, curling up on himself.

"Five."

Diego came around to his other side, as Viktor finally let his light fade. Luthor was down the hall, holding Allison in his arms. Viktor looked over at them.

Luther indicated to Allison, "I'm going to set her down somewhere. She needs ice for the lump on her head…"

Viktor was confused at that picture, but brought his attention back to Five, who was slowly being helped up by Diego.

He still seemed so shaky, and…he had tears steaming down his cheeks.

"Five…" Viktor moved closer to him. Five stepped away and his face went cold and he looked down the hallway to where Luther brought Allison and blinked away.

Diego and Viktor looked at each other and Lila glanced where Five stood mere seconds ago.. "His records…" she nodded to Five. "He would have a recurring nightmare. That the apocalypse he kept seeing was his own doing. And he was the one killing all of you.."

"What?"

"How do you know this?" Diego asked Lila.

"Mum always had his records in her office. She was obsessed with your brother. Like crazy. He was her 'personal pet' as she liked to call him. But all agents had to be assessed, to be sure they could continue doing their jobs, so his psychologist notes were in there."

"So Allison's rumor…" Viktor started.

"Just put him right back into his nightmare." Lila confirmed.

"That fucking bitch." Viktor shook his head.

-UA-

Allison opened her eyes and found herself lying on a bed. Her hands had been restrained and there was a gag in her mouth to keep her from speaking.

She glanced around the room, seeing Five sitting in a chair by the desk. His body was facing her, but he was bent forward, elbows on knees, looking at the floor.

She tugged at the restraints and eyed them to try to figure her way out.

"Don't bother," came his voice. Quiet but sharp. "I couldn't even get out of that…" he looked up and she saw a slight pained look on his face, "provided I was also drugged."

She saw a flash of an unpleasant memory in his words, but then his face returned to something slightly unreadable.

She tried to speak through the gag, demanding he let her go.

He stood, putting his hands in his pockets and walking closer to her. "No." He said simply. "I understand that you are in a lot of pain. You're heartbroken. You feel abandoned. Lost. unsure of your next move and which would be the right one, if there even is a right one at this point." He leaned over her. "But the difference between me in the apocalypse with no one and you here? You still have us to lean on for support." He stood up and turned away from her with a laugh. "I fought every day to get back to you lot. I couldn't figure it out, so I resigned myself to the fake promises the commission made. I was turned into a monster by them. She…they… I was…" he let that sentence fade as he looked over his shoulder back at her. "I did it all for you."

She stopped struggling and studied him. The pain. The betrayal. The anger that matched hers, but for different reasons.

Hers for the family she wants and is no more.

His for the family he wants that is right here.

He turned himself again to face her. "You have had 'hell' over the course of years, with breaks to fall in love, twice. Have a child to share love with. Have a family to breathe with. And those comforts were ripped from you and you are lashing out. It's understandable. But I had years of loneliness and pain, and torture and pain, and have been struggling for the last 3 weeks straight to save the world and protect this family as best as I can, and I will be damned if I let it be 'family' that destroys that."

He stepped closer to her again, lowering himself to her eye level. She didn't struggle. She didn't try to speak. She looked at him in a way he couldn't read.

Anger?

Pity?

"You ever do that again, and family be damned. I'll kill you myself."

And with that he blinked out of the room, leaving her with tears in her eyes.

-UA-

Lila opened the door, bringing in some food for Allison.

Allison looked at her warily.

"For the record. I'm the only person who was willing to come in here. You're not exactly the most popular sibling at the moment, and considering Klaus is here that's really saying something." She put the plate down and looked at Allison. "Let's take this stuff off and talk a bit, yeah?"

Allison rubbed at her wrist where she had caused a bit of bruising trying to get out. Lila eyed it.

"Well, you don't bruise like your brother…"

Allison wasn't sure if she meant Five or Diego, but considering the answer could potentially bring up an uncomfortable conversation, she didn't push it.

"Thanks," Allison said quietly, taking the sandwich from Lila. She took a bite and thought for a moment. "How…how is everyone?"

"A range from concerned to pissed." Lila replied back bluntly. "As someone who tends to let her emotions get the best of her, I gotta say- you may have taken a step too far."

Allison huffed at that.

"I just wanted everyone to feel my pain."

"Everyone does in their own way. It may not be your pain. But they have their pain."

Allison nodded. "Viktor and Five?"

"Viktor cooled down. Five is trying to focus on what is next. He…" Lila gave a shrug. "Who knows, honestly. Considering he's on fumes these days. But you need to know…" Lila sat on the chair near the bed, "you fucked with him bad."

"It's not like he's never been rumored before," Allison thought back to when she used to torment her brothers as kids when they got on her nerves.

"I know the old man's files. They were common reading when mum left me in the office. Five went through years of nightmares in the commission. After…well that's for him to tell you one day. But he constantly dreamed it was him that killed you all in the apocalypse. That he was commanded to and he did his job."

Allison ran her tongue between her lips and teeth, where some of the bread got stuck. "So I reminded him of it."

Lila nodded. "Look, you're whole family is whack because of your dad. Five had your dad, years of lonely insanity and then my mum, who, believe me, could give your pop a run for the award for 'worst parent'." She shook her head. "And she made sure she dented him and had it engraved with her name. You could almost feel really bad for him if he wasn't such a bloody wanker most of the time."

Allison sighed and looked at the ceiling of the room she was in.

"I'm going to have to face them."

"You sure are." Lila stood up. "But I could walk with you, if you'd like. They could see you're not about to fly off the handle again."

Allison looked at with with consideration and nodded. "Would you?"

-UA-

Allison walked into the living room with Lila walking beside her. Everyone seemed to tense as they saw her.

Allison wiped her hands on her pants and looked around at everyone, landing on Viktor and Five. Five had separated himself from Viktor and was sitting by the bar.

"I wanted to…apologize." She managed to get out. "I have been holding onto a lot of emotion and I let it build up inside me until it broke through the dam I was trying to hold it back with."

She looked to Viktor. "I'm sorry, Viktor. I know you were trying to do what you thought was best, and please understand, so was I, in my own way. We had opposing views and in perfect Hargreaves fashion- we didn't talk it through."

Viktor gave a small nod of acknowledgment, but his jaw was still set. "Please know," Allison continued, "I don't blame you. I wanted to. But that's stupid and selfish."

She brought her attention to Five, who was eyeing her. " Five… you have been through more than any of us… out of sheer years of experience. And we keep going through more. I shouldn't add to what you need to fight with. I'm sorry I…I'm sorry."

Five nodded his own acknowledgement to her apology.

"Well now that the niceties are out of the way," Sparrow Ben sneered at the Umbrella's, "let's get down to business. The basement."

Everyone started to file out of the room after him. Luther and Diego gave Allison a smile. Klaus went up to her and gave her a hug and some whisper of him being so proud of her. Viktor gave an awkward nod and a small smile as he followed out. Five was taking his time coming from the bar and stood next to Allison.

"That was nicely done," he told her. "But what I told you still stands. Become a threat again, and I won't hesitate to take you out." He raised his eyebrows meaningfully at her.

She took in a breath and nodded at him.

"Then we have an understanding."

He walked out of the room giving her a moment before she followed after as well.

Hope I did it Justice! I have a handful of stories more to do, but let me know if you have a suggestion. I will try to do recommendations.
