Chapter 13: Back
The sound of surprised people reaches his ears and Five opens his eyes. He looks right into his father's cold eyes. Five swallows, not the perfect landing he had hoped for but at least he isn't dead and looking around at his siblings he had at least arrived at the right time. On top of the breakfast table, as he said not perfect. "Number 5 what is this nonsense. You weren't excused from the table and I forbid behaviour like this. Go to your room." To shocked and very tired after his journey. Five just climbed down from the table ignored all their staring and walks up to his room. He would sleep and after that get his siblings for a secret family meeting.
His mom is waiting for him at the staircase. "I got the bath ready for you to freshen up a bit." She smiles her always present smile and Five nods. He stinks like smoke and unwashed for days. The apocalyptic world has no showers, or prober fresh clothes. If he had spent more time there he would have get something ´fresher` but that isn't important now. He still wonders why his father hadn't mentioned the ash and dirt he left behind, a problem for another day. After a very long and hot shower Five crushes into his bed and falls asleep a second later.
That evening, after their lessons and training Five gets his siblings, one by one and gets them to the attic. The have questions, they had notice his appearance and after he had silence them he told them what had happened (will happen in the future). He tells them about Vanya and her powers, that they need to start training her after getting her off the medication. He told them about Ben dead and an immortal Klaus that had spent time with him. Told them what they told him about their father.
Together they make a plan, a plan to avoid their father, a plan for Vanya´s training, a plan to prevent anyone from dying. Five very much stressed that Klaus is not allowed to die; he didn't say anything about the price he pays but the other see right through him. And very important a plan to prevent the apocalypse from happening.
At the end of their meeting they were all exhausted about all the information they got, the plans to keep safe. Vanya was on the one side very happy to have powers on the other side was she afraid about them and their potential destructive outcome. But Five doesn't worry too much about it. They would get a way for her to control it.
Five holds Klaus back and offers him the letter. Without saying a word he teleports back in his room. He is pretty sure in a few minutes someone will knock and get him to keep his promise and somehow Five doesn't mind.
