Questionable Choices • Five Hargreeves

chapter 10

reginald hargreeves

number eight
number eights scans where through the roof. each day her power increases 5%. she has passed everyone including vanya. so much potential to be wasted from choosing to goof off with her siblings. but i allow it. if she reached her full potential, the world could go down in flames. i'm beginning to think she's immortal. today i will test this theory, no matter how high the stakes.

y/n pov(around five years old at the time)

dads taking me to some room i've never been into before

"daddy where are we going, i'm tired" i said yawning as i held his hand

"patience number eight, we must be quite and patient while we do this." he said guiding me to a chair

i was soon sat down while i had a wire contraption attached to my head and restraints put on.

"mommy, pogo, daddy, what are we doing" i said as tears formed in my eyes. i was so scared.

"it'll be okay little one" grace said wiping my tear away before turning on her heel to walk towards reginald
"ready sir"

reginald pov~
i nodded slowly. i may be tough on my children, but i really do love them even if i have a funny way of showing it. i know y/n could die, but i also need to know if i was right. if i am, so many things could come from this.

i grabbed my pistol and aimed at y/n. i can do this. i will do this.

bang

it is done. i ran over to the monitors. she's dead, but her power monitor hasn't stopped.

i sat there for a day waiting. i can't leave her, i needed to be here if she wakes up.

my attention was pulled when i heard a monitor beep. the heart monitor. she's alive.

her eyes fluttered open and she looked around.

i questioned her and she was totally responsive. she didn't know how much time had passed but she told me about how she was in a dark room for a bit before green sparks let it up and soon she just opened her eyes here. remarkable. she is immortal, and she wakes up when her wounds fully heal

since it was a simple bullet wound, it didn't take too long.

end of reading

back to fives pov in the present

i opened y/n shirt and turned red as i was met with her chest and a black bra

i pushed my feelings aside and focused on the wound. now all it is is a small hole. i looked at all her cuts and they were gone too. it shouldn't be long before she wakes up, but i'm not gonna tell my brothers cause they seem preoccupied mourning

i closed her shirt and laid next to her.

her scent was so intoxicating. it was all in her bed, and in her hair. even dead she smelled nice

soon i fell asleep thinking about her

she's gonna be okay.

a/n- heyyy ok that's three in a day. i'm gonna do more when i wake up later hopefully, sorry this is so short
