Vanya looked around at her siblings to see their reactions to her new powers, to her sense of finally belonging, and what she saw sickened and angered her.

Fear. All of them. Sure, they had awe and excitement on their faces too, but she could see the fear, in Luther and Diego it was clear as day, in some of the others it was more masked, but fear was on all of their faces and Vanya hated it.

"Why?" She asked, taking a deep breath to try calm herself, letting herself sink back to the floor.

"What do you mean, why?" Five asked.

"I can see the way you're all looking at me." Vanya said, tears pricking the corners of her eyes, but she didn't care at that moment. She was going to say her piece. "When I learnt about these powers I was scared at first but then excited, I thought, this is it, you'll all accept me now, it can be as it should have been all along, but looking at you, I can see you're scared of my powers, don't even deny it! I hoped it'd be better, but it seems you're all the assholes, just like dad!" Vanya cried as she fled the room, not looking back, ignoring the calls of Pogo and Grace for her to wait. If she stayed, she'd do something she knew she'd regret.

"Vanya, wait!" Klaus yelled, as the rest looked between themselves. What could they do to get Vanya to stop?

Vanya ignored his calls and headed out to the front door, rushing outside and running up the street.

"So, what do we do now?" Diego asked.

"Children!" Pogo berated them as he turned to them with sad eyes. "I know you've all had your differences, but Miss Vanya is your sister and she is in pain. I cannot express how disappointed I am that you all judged her so quickly. If I were you, I'd be looking into finding your currently distraught sister and bringing her back to a supportive family." Pogo said before turning and leaving.

"I love you children, all of you, but hurting your sister is against everything I've ever seen from you. You children have each other, and only each other, once all is said and done. Think on it." Grace said before she too swept from the room, leaving the five siblings looking at each other in shame and disgust.

'Why can't they accept me? Why do they fear me? What's so wrong with me that my powers scare them whilst I've done nothing they haven't themselves?' Vanya asked herself as she walked, not paying attention to where she was heading, she just found herself walking through the streets, further and further away from the Academy as the light got darker and darker as the minutes and hours passed by.

"Hey." A voice said behind her, whirling around Vanya saw an unfamiliar woman smiling at her.

"Can I help you?" Vanya sniffled.

"You looked like you could use a shoulder to cry on." The woman said with a shrug. "Do you want to talk about whatever it is?"

"Thanks but no." Vanya said, as politely as she could. How would she even begin to have that conversation? "I have powers and my siblings are scared because I never did before and now I've killed someone and to top it off the end of the world is supposed to be in a few days and we have no idea what to do to stop it."

"Well, if you do want to talk, I've got plenty of time and nothing to do." She said with a smile to Vanya, who couldn't help but smile back to her. "It's like I've always said, que sera sera."

"How could we be so stupid?" Allison asked the others as they sat around the kitchen table, wondering what they could do next. It had been a couple of hours since Vanya had left, but none of them had any idea where to look. They'd checked out her apartment, the theatre, Harold's old house, as well as walking a few blocks in all directions and checking coffee shops, but nothing. It was as if she had vanished.

"You can't blame yourself, Allison, we were all shocked by it." Luther told her.

"She's not, she's blaming all of us and she's right you idiot." Five hissed at Luther, who rocked back at the venom in his tone. "All of us, we had each other with our powers when we were kids, and we helped each other, but Vanya, she's had no-one her entire life, and now she's found out she has powers too, and the first thing we all do is react in horror, we all made it pretty clear on our faces we were scared and so was she, and all we did was make her fear us."

"We need to make it right." Allison said.

"How?" Diego asked. "We have no idea where to find her, or how to deal with this, do we? Five said the apocalypse is in two days, how do we factor this in?"

"Maybe Vanya can help?" Luther said. "You told me you found us all dead, Five, but Vanya wasn't there with us, was she? With you and her helping, maybe we'll have enough to win this time."

"But Harold was the cause, at least I thought. With him dead, I don't know if the apocalypse is already over. If it isn't, I don't know what we need to do to stop it as I don't know the cause, I can't exactly sneak into the Commission again to try find out who they're manipulating." Five said.

"Well whatever the cause is, we need to be together." Klaus said. "Listen, we have a better chance of stopping it at full strength, and we've seen Vanya's powers clearly aren't small, with her we have a better chance of winning."

"If she can control them." Luther said.

"What's your problem, Luther?" Diego turned on him. "Sure, I've been angry with Vanya, we all have, but look at this! She's clearly hurting, confused about powers she didn't even know she had, and your move is to accuse her of not being in control, and trying to shun her because of it?"

"What do you mean?" Luther challenged him, standing up to loom over Diego.

"You're more like dad than you think, big boy." Diego told him, standing as well, squaring off against him. "If it's something you don't like, you condemn it, regardless of what it is or how it'll effect others."

"I'm just thinking, clearly she won't know how to control them, we can't trust she can control them if it came to it." Luther argued.

"Which is why we find her and help her, you idiot." Allison snarled at him, Luther looking shocked by this.

"I'm not saying we don't, I'm just saying -" Luther began before Five interrupted him.

"- It doesn't matter what you're saying. We find Vanya, it's as simple as that." Five said. "Now, let's all focus, where would she go?"

"She used to always go for walks when she was a teenager, heading North." Pogo said, walking into the room. "Perhaps if you headed North for a few miles, you'd find her?"

"I'll jump it." Five said, jumping away before anyone could speak.

Reappearing outside a park, Five looked around, the street was dark save for the street lights, and there was no sign of anyone around. Sighing, he jumped again a few streets over, coming across Vanya sat on the roadside.

"Vanya!" Five called, her heading perking up at the sight of him.

"Five? What are you doing here?" She asked.

"We've been looking for you." Five explained. "God, Vanya, I'm sorry, we all are. We didn't mean to react like that, I just-"

"-Five, it's fine." Vanya smiled at him. Five looked confused.

"What do you mean?"

"I forgive you. Honestly, I do. I get why you acted like that. I ran into someone, a woman, we had a talk, she explained to me about why you did what you did, probably, she made me realise that despite everything, family should stick together."

"Sounds like a smart woman." Five remarked.

"She had a weird saying though." Vanya smiled at the memory of it.

"Oh?"

"Que sera sera. What will be, will be." Vanya told him as Five felt his blood freeze.
